Laying The Corner Stone.

A large number of people assembled
at the new Presbyterian Church Thurs
day afternoon, to witness the ceremony
of laying the corner stone of the hand
some structure now building.
The exercises were seen and partici-
pated in by people representing several
denominations, so that the new church
gets what might be termed a composite
corner from which to take its rise.
DR.. Il. B. Shipman's Historical Sketch
told with interest the affairs of the
Church from its inception. June, 1865,
and related many facts connected with
its earlier history.
The address of the Rev. Henry
Runner, of Parkersburg, was splendid,
that gentleman being a grand, good
man of high attainments as minister
and citizen.
The corner stone was laid, the GUS
tomary documents being placed under
meath the same.

Elba.

: The citizens of the village of Ell bs
were surprised few mornings ago, to
find about twenty sheep dead and
wounded in the streets and on the
porches of several residences in the
village. They belonged to Smith w.
Dptton. The dogs had killed and
wounded large number and almost
destroyed flock of the best sheep in
the township.
About thirty of the ladies of Mucks-
burg were fortunate in making profit
able investment a few days ago. A
stranger canvassed the town selling
ten cakes of soap and very fine set of
dishes for one dollar. The soap was
worth not less than twenty-five cents.
This was delivered upon receipt of the
money The set of dishes, containing
sixty pieces, is not yetdeliyered. When
(?) the ladies get their dishes they will
be in possession of set worth not less
than six dollars, and twenty-five cents
worth of soap all for the small sum of
one dollar.
The tenth well on the Elizabeth
Ward farm was completed last week
and started off at forty barrels. They
are now rigging up to drill the elev-
enth well on the farm. None of the
ten wells com pleted started at less than
twenty barrels day. Some of them
made over hundred. This farm is in
the shallow field, and was drilled
around and considered mo good" until
in the summer of 1895 Julius Dutton
succeeded in getting up company to
drill it. This lease is producing over
hundred barrels per day in what is
known here as the Buell. Run sand.

Electric Bitters,

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen.
orally needed, when the languid ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need OF tonic and alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and free
ing the system from the malarial
poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con-
stipation, Dizziness yield to Electric
Bitters. Soc and s1.O0 per bottle at

Marvellous Results.

From letter written by Rev. j.
Gunderman, of Dimondale, Mich, we
are permitted to make this extract: II
have no hesitation in recommending
DIR. Kings New Discovery, as the re-
suits were almost marvellous in the case
of my wife. While / was pastor of the
Baptist Church at Rives junction she
was brought down with Pneumonia
succeeding La Grippe. Terrible parox-
ysms of coughing would last for hours
with little interruption and it seemed
as if she could not survive them. A
friend recommended DIR. Kings New
Discovery; it was quick in its work
and highly satisfactory in results. Z"

full and a terrible incident in our his
tory. They have reference to the grave
Chicago riot My countrymen, no man
more than l believes in the right of the
laboring man to organize for his better
ment and his protection. But no man
has a right to pursue any end in this
country in defiance of the law and by
the wanton destruction of other mems
property; no man has right to tear
up a railroad track and burn depots
and cars.
mo man has a right to stay the pro-
gress of the United States mails and de-
YOUR Interstate commerce. the consti-
tuition of the United States expressly
commits to the general Government
the work of carrying the mails, estab-
fishing postals and the regulation OF
commerce between the States. No
State has right to meddle with this.
Again and again the Supreme Court of
the United States has broken down as
unconstitutional State legislation that
interfered with commerce between the
States.
"our constitution confides to the
National Government these two great
functions, and President Cleveland was
arraigned and Kissed in a Convention
of his own party because, having sworn
to support the Constitution, he inter-
vened with the forces of the United
States to open a way for the mail
quietly, with as little injury to anybody
as possible, with proclamation and pro-
test-but firmly to open the way that
the mails might go to their destination;
that the commerce of Ohio might not
be stopped in any city of any other
State.
For this he is arraigned. 1t is said
he should haye waited until the Cover
nor of Illinois asked him to help. No
one would be more loath than l to in
wade that jurisdiction in local concerns
which the Constitution of the United
States leaves to the States, but l am
equally jealous that every power the
States surrendered to the National
Government shall be exercised by that
Government without asking the con-
sent Of any State"

Tho Declaration of Independence

Was written by the man who said:
"Just principles will lead US to disre-
gard legal proportions altogether, to
inquire into the market price OF gold in
the several countries with which we
shall principally be connected in com
merce and to take an average from
them" But W. J. Bryan says it is dis
graceful to talk about adjusting our
currency to the currencies of the world.

Foot Ball,

The first foot ball game of the season
will be played on the Athletic Grounds
this afternoon at 2:SO o'clock. The col
lege team will line up against the Ohio
University team of Athens and lively
contest is expected. The University
team has been in training for some
time and the local team will have to
play ball to win. The College team by
its good work heretofore, has made
many football enthusiasts and all
should turn out and root for the home
team.

A Few of Harr1son's Utterances at Gin
cinnati.
THEY PROPOSE ABsURDITIEs.

THEY PROPOSE ABsURDITIES
''There are laws of trade. There is
law Of the merchant, and all the Leg
islatures in the world cannot annul it..
Now, Bryan's proposition is that we
shall have bimetallism in this country,
and he means by that the use of both
gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to Il;
in other words that we shall have by
law proclamation that man shall
give dollars worth of something for
fifty cents worth of something else.
1t is absolutely impossible. 1t is base.
1t is worse than base; it is not credible;
it is not spoken in high estimation of
the intelligence of our people when it
is said to them that because we achieve
our political independence we can
make two unequal things equal to each
other. (Applause.)
"a Congress might pass law that
one buffalo skin should be equal to a
coon skin, but if you want to know the
ratio between those skins you would
have to go to the fur merchant, not to
matter of the ratio of one dollar to an
other. The lawIcan take the CONNER.
cial ratio, or approximately hold and
maintain the double standard. Let
the dollars circulate together, but it
cannot disregard the quotations in the
market for these metals.
MAINTAINING THE PARITY.
"The Government is coming silver
NOV on its own account. 1t is buying
the silver az the market value, and if
there is profit in it, it takes the profit
for the Treasury. The other scheme
gives it to the mine owners. We have
this large silver circulation now, and it
goes at par with gold in our business
transactions, because, say, the Gov
ernment has solemnly declared that it
will so maintain it; but the scheme of
the free silver men is to take the Gov
ernment out from behind it, to with
draw this pledge. They will not toll
crate the thought that the Government
shall promise this silver coinage at a
par with gold; that would be, they say,
to perpetuate the gold standard.
"Well, how are other men to be
helped? How is the workingman to be
helped by free silver? "a voice, Vote
for McKinley.D
''Yes, Mckinley will help him, but
free silver won't. Now let us consider
for one moment Every has the
advantage of the workingman when
this transaction comes up. The mer-
chant has the advantage of it. He can
mark up his goods. He simply changes
the price mark on the label, and when
you go in the next morning. and he
knows that you are likely to offer him
a silver dollar, he has marked up his
goods to correspond to the dollar he
expects to get from you.

Picturesque River View will inaugurate
its tenth year as an excursion resort today
and Capt. L. S. Randall promises all who
visit IL a most delightful time. The View
is now in all the glory of the early spring.
The grass is coming up and looks delight
fully fresh and green 10 theyeye, the trees
are in full leaf, flowers are budding,
and all nature is at its prettiest. Tho fast
steamer Samuel j PentZ has just come out
of the hands Of the painters and decorators
and is a thing Of beaut in her dress of bright
paint. She will make two flying trips to
the VIEW leaving her wharf, foot of
Seventh street, al l a NJ. and 2:45 p. m.,
and returning will place the eXcursionists
home by 8 O'Clock, in time for the young
men to pay an evening call on their sweet
hearts. Capt. Randall has spared no ex-
pense to make River View the attractive
resort for the people of Washington. Be
sides the new $40, 900 chute which is in
course of construction and will be COM
pleted In about two weeks, he has gone to
considerable expense to beautify the
grounds by setting out new trees, opening
new walks, and having the various amuse-
| ments on the grounds placed in thorough
order for the season. An attractive pro-
gram of sacred music will be rendered on
the steamer and grounds throughout the

The District Commissioners, with the
heads of the several departments OF the
municipal government, were i'll conference
yesterday from 1920 o'clock until late
i'll the afternoon with the Senate Committee
on Appropriations, discussing the items in
the district appropriation bill as reported
from the House.
Several previous conferences had dis
posed OF a large part OF the measure, and
that of yesterday embraced the items Tor the
police department, tile fire department,
public schools, the telegraph and telephone
service, the health department, the police
court, emergency fund, building Inspector s
office, reformatories and prisons, support
OF the insane, instruction OF the dear and
dumb, the militia and the water department.
The Commissioners are hopeful
getting a number of increases in the bills
where especially worthy cases are involved
through the arguments advanced to the
Senate committee.
BILL A DISAPPOINTMENT.
The measure as it came from the House
was in many respects disappointment, not
a single department getting what had been
asked for 1t.
The police department budget aggregated
q slight advance and provided for small
addition to tile force. The total OF the
main appropriation was 1868, $50, and
miscellaneous $23, $50, the latter item en-
braCing the contingent fund amounting to
SIS, SOC.
The sum of $14O.SO0 was by the House
bill allotted to the fire department, with a
miscellaneous fund aggrcgaiinG S2S, 100.
Tie Increase allowed III The department
equipment consisted OF an item for the
purchase OF a house, lot and furniture for
one engine company to be located III the
vicinity OF North Capitol street and Florida
avenue, for a steam fire engine, aud a
hose carriage, the expenditure aggregating
S2S,, 100.
The telegraph and telephone service got
$4,000 for salaries, 81 600 for general
supplies and repairs, and $4,000 for re-
newing city lines. The estimates of the
CommisS toner's provided for an extension
of the service to the suburbs, but this sug-
gestion was ignored by the House.
LOOKING TO THE SENATE.
1t is not known whether or not the Senate
Will restore the item as asked for.
All the other departments enumerated
were taken up and considered at the confer
| ence, those OF the bureau chiefs present, in
addition to the Commissioners, being Super
intendent Powell of the public schools;
Major Moore, of the police department.
| Chief Paris, of the fire department; Super
iutendent Miles, of the telegraph and tele
phone service: Judge Kimball Of the
police court; Building Inspector Brady, each
representing his own interest; and Auditor
Petty, who was there 10 look after the
financial phase in general way.
Col. j Ohm Tracey, superintendent OF
Charities, was also present, but his bra nch
of the service was not touched upon. The
water department was also permitted To
| go over 10 a future hearing.
1t is expected that the bin VIII be final
| " disposed of in committee by Wednesday y
next.
