Wheelmen are much put out at the weather
and the score or more Of road runs arranged
for today will have TO be postponed, since the
roads cannot be in condition for comfortable
riding this afternoon. The proprietors OF cycling
academies however, are well satisfied with the

to no one in my admiration for him. There
has been a great deal of talk in Washington
about where should place the statue of
Gov Shepherd. This country has so many
distinguished men that now statues to their
memory occupy most of the desirable places
in the city. Most of Gov. Shepherds ad-
mirers will tell you that all of Washington
is a monument to him. But there should be
some more distinctive place, and II in the

Col. Wilson.
When Col John NJ. Wilson, superinten-
dent of public buildings and grounds. was
introduced, Mr.. Parker referred to him as
one of the most popular superintendents of
public buildings and grounds ever in this
city.
Col Wilson told the beautiful story of
the building Of King Solomon's Temple,
and how the worlmen had come across an
ire grls rly- shaped stone which would not
lit in the wall and they Judged it was the
result CT blunder. 1t was thrown aside
and buried in weeds and debris. When the
completion of the building approached it
was found that the keystone was missing
ard one of the old master masons remem-
bered the stone that was thrown aside as
worthless. The irrcgllarly shaped stone
was brought out from among the weeds
where it had long been neglected and it
was the missing stone. perfect in every de-
tail and exactly what was required FOR the
completion of the temple.
Then Gel Wilson iikened eX-Gov. Shep-
herd to the keystone of the temple. having
been in exile for years when the people
finally saw the real p.rport and motive of
his W ork and could Judge it dispassionately
they found him to be the perfect keystone.
But there is more work before u.s. con-
tin,lad Col. Wilson. There are the boue-
wards to be constructed. grounds that have
beer swam,rs to be transformed into parks
and ether work to be done. Let us bow our
heads and eend our knee that We may he

of chara cter and foresight of the great man

1t is learned on good authority that
the members OF tho Local Union No. .,
Flint Glasswogkers, will figure In an
other effort to purchase the Central
glass works In this city from the United
States Glass Company with the view
of again starting that plant With union
worlSmen.
Al the last meeting OF the union mem
toned the matter Of encouraging the
purchase of the Central came IN, and,
although no definite action was taken,
tho proposition that portion OF the big
surplus Of the union be used IN sub
scribng to tho stock OF the local COM
pnny met with favor and has since
bcen discussed by the workmcn In the
same strain.
The recent EFFORT to secure subscrlp-
lions to stock In company to purchase
and operate the Central fell somewhat
short, but now the worhmeu are pre-
pared TO make up the deficiency, II Is

There Is u case In the county jail,
that of a prisoner sentenced To one
years confinement that deserves and
commands the sympathy Of humanity.
The prisoner referred to Is Vincent
Rafferty,, who was convicted some
months arc for stealing coffee from
cars IN the Wheeling Y Lake Erie de-
pot. The stolen goods Were MI recov-
crud, but as he had been convict d Of u
crime the restoration dld not make hlm
gulltlcss, according 10 the Judgment of
the Jury. The jude, very piopcrly
with the verdict OF the jury before him,
sentenced the mRn 10 one year In tho
county Jail. That Is the judicial record
OF the case,
Now comes the humane md fympa-
thetIc phase, Since his Incarceration

bourne whence no traveller returns,
and owing 10 his imprisonment was not
allowed the poor satisfaction Of last
look upon them In their frozen sleep
This would seem TO be enough To drive
man Ia the deepest distraction, nut
the prisoner, from all GGg0untH, bore
himself well under his double aillictoA.
The point Of this story now comes,
that Mr. Rafferty, Is suffering from an
aggravated cure OF typhoid fever AS
n matter OF course he has all the at
tentl0n that Sheriff Fran2Eclm is au-
thorlEcd to bostow upon BIN, but the
question arises, could he not get better
treatment In some Of the hospitals OF
the city? HIS term of imprisonment
does not expire for six months. me
