MASTER ARTHUR BoNNHEIM,
Son OF DIR. Bomnhein, distinguished
Himself ut milwaukee,.

Rev. DR.. Il. A. Bunnhcim, OF Wheeling,
has returned from Milwaukee. where he
attended the meeting OF the Central
Conference OF American Rabbits. He
was accompanied hy his son Arthur,
who, although only seven years old.
achieved honor and distinction ut the
conference. The rabbits were entertain
ed by the two Jewish congregations OF
Milwaukee. Emanuel and l}ncl-Jes-
huruni, one OF the features being Il boat
ride on the lake Thursday night, follow
cd by n banquet. After the t0aSte, the
aSscmhlnEc was nHtOnIshcd Mt the abill-
ty Of young linnnhGim. who closed the
banquet by giving the long Hebrew
prayer usual on such occasions! Few are
the adults who can give this prayer
without reference to the hook, and the
performance Of Or. BOnnhchn's son was
quite notable. Before their departure
for Wheeling the two Milwaukee cOnErc-
cations presented the young man With q
beautiful gold medal. suitably inscribed,
ms follows: "In memory OF the Central
Conference OF American RnbblS, held In
Milwaukee. 1896. Presented to Master
Arthur BOnnh"im by the Congregations
Emanuel and Iincl-Jc8hurum."

II Held in the Wheeling Park Casino.

Though 1t has not yet been definitely
settled. It Is practically settled that the
state Democratic nominating conven-
ton on August IL, Will be. held In the
Wheeling park casino. Since the con-
5yention was slated for Wheeling there
has been some discussion as to the prop
er place for the gathering. Some de-
sired 1t to be held In th-a pavilion at
Mozart park. and others thought ma
chinery hall on the state fair grounds
was the proper place. But the argu-
ment that was used before the state
committee was that the city now has n
5place-the park casino-fully equal TO
the demands OF a gathering OF the call
bre OF n state convention. and there Is
where the convention will undoubtedly
be held. Tho local committee has not
yet completed the arrangements for
the convention, but It Is said an effort
I will be made TO have delegates trans
ported to the park free OF charge.

MONEY IN HOGS.

The following items from the Good
Thunder Herald will show that there
is money in hog raising, and not al
ways money in shipping:
Fl. G. Eberhart sold last week to
stock dealer Houk SO hogs which
netted him S763 SO, some of these were
late fall pigs. He still has about $40
left.
John Gainor marketed on SATURDAY.
three hogs, which tipped the beam at
1920 pounds, an average of $40 pounds.
r. L. Houk shipped a carload of
hogs Saturday. In getting returns he
learned that the excessive heat of
Sunday had killed ten of them aver
aging APO pounds each, making quite
a heavy loss for Dick, and all goes to
show that hog buying is not always
profitable.

STOCK YARDS CONDEMNED.
The Chicago & Northwestern Road
Must Remove Its Yard.

The health board held a meeting
yesterday and condemned the Chicago
& Northwestern stock yard, and al
lowed twenty days for it's removal.
Notice was served on Agent John
son this morning. Health Officer
Jacaby states that the yard has
given offense for some time, as it is
being used as place for feeding and
OBTAINING cattle, as well as ishipping.
Last year complaint was made to the
company, and it agreed to pave the
ground with cement or stone. 1t put
down stone and cinders, but the yard
is now pronounced filthier than ever
before.
Agent Johnson states that the yard
will be moved.
