Here is a paragraph about congress
from a letter recently written by
| Frenchman visiting Washington:
What of the deputies and the sena-
! tors? AS with US, they do great deal
more talking than legislative work
! They are more free and easy, and they
are not SO reserved. However, this is
quite natural in country where, in
order DO be a deputy, one of them has
only to be the father of eighteen chill
dren, all of them to be born in the same
| district. If the same conditions were
imposed on US, we might succeed in
making a successful fight against the
| increasing depoDulation of France.
! What would not one do to become a
deputy? 1t is true that it is not in the
power of every one to become the
father of eighteen children At the
same time, it is very unjust that only
the men should be rewarded for acts
of this kind. It is rather on the women
that an honorary distinction should be
conferred"

Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1896-04-19

The following letter was received yes
terday by Postmaster NJ. j. O'Kane,
telling of the death, at Sana Casha,
Mexico, of James c. Baird, whose home
is supposed to be in or near this city.
The letter is from E. l.. Mann, who is
a merchant in the dry goods and fancy
grocery line at Socorro, New Mexico,
and to him enquiries should be address,
ed. The letter is as follows:
To Any Relative or Friend OF James {.
Baird, OF Wheeling, w. Va:
Ny Dear Sir:-About three months
ago party of three or four with one or
two wagons, passed through this place.
Stopping a week or so in East Town
doing odd jobs OF painting. They paint
ed a sign for me. Stayed here about
ten days, then went on South in the
direction of Old Mexico. They in
formed me that they had left a sick
man some where back on the road, TO
follow as soon as he was able, and about
two weeks later | learned that a man
had died at Sana Casha at Mexican
house at that place, without a friend
near him, except the friendship shown
by the Mexicans, and l made enquiry
and learned that he was the same man
spoken of by the painters, and to-day
| secured from the Mexicans at whose
house he died, three memorandum
books and six pictures, one OF which
the MeXicans told me was the man that
died there. This picture is a group of
four; fine looking middle aged lady,
quite fleshy and a young lady, say IA or
10 when the picture was taken, fine
looking; looks much like the man, and
little girl. / will send all of these
pictures and memoranda to any rela
tive or friend that will write to me for
them, and give them all further infor-
nation that can be obtained.
Very respectfully,
Z. l.. MANN.

records.

This table shows at a glance the
comparative maximum conditions for
the several years, and proves that there
is just cause for complaint and every
excuse for the prevailing discomfort
and suffering. People still tied up in
their winter flannelS, and young men
pecuniarially disqualified from making
immediate purchases of soft" shirts
and serge unmentionables, ought not in
justice to be subjected to this sort of
thing for whole week.
Last Sunday, as the Register has
heretofore remarked, Wheeling was the
hottest place in the United States, with
Pittsburg a close second. We have
maintained that undesirable location
on the list throughout the week. with
the possible exception OF two days. Fri
day Charlotte, n. c.. had "a against our
80, but yesterday we went to the front
again. All during the week the barom-
eter has been almost stationary at about
thirty inches, which is a duplication
which prevailed in the Middle Missis-
sippi Valley during the first days Of the
week, and which was followed there
by a movement Of the high" area to
the Lake Superior region. Our high"
barometer here will probably move to-
wards the east and northeast, but yes
terday it showed no indications of
budging out of its tracks. Once move
ment is started, however, storm fol-
lowed by cooler weather will probably
result.
The Register yesterday talked over
the long distance phone with Observer
Dunn, at the government station at
Pittsburg. He said the maximum tenn
perature up there was 80, with the bar
ometer 1910 inches, and that the lat
ter instrument had averaged 1910 or
30.15 for four days past, making a very
unusual situation. He thought the end
of the torrid temperature was almost in
sight, as it was cooler in the Northwest,
the mercury marking IA at Helena,
Mont, Friday, while there was an ex-
traordinary local drop of SO degrees in
six hours at Chicago, Friday. On the
other hard, however, rise Of "a de-
grees was recorded Friday at Omaha,
which apparently indicated a hot wave
from the Southwest.
With a continuation of the hot wealth
er to-day there will be general exodus
from the city for the parks and the
country.

Pure Food Exhibit - The Management
Promises an Attractive Exposition.
A coming event is the Pure Food Ex-
position TO open in Wheeling on May
18th and continue until May 10th inclu-
sive. preparations for which have al
ready been made. The Retail Grocers
Association of this city are TO give the
movement for better and purer goods
their hearty support, and no doubt the
public in general will join them. f. l..
Mcguire, of Chicago, is at the head OF
these expositions, and in every city in
which he establishes them he calls to
his assistance the most progressive men
and such as are best fitted TO push the
movement. Well known society wo-
men are always invited to act as pa
tronesses, and the whole thing is man
aged in the best manner. No expense
will be spared by the management 10
make it most attractive. The nature OF
the exposition renders this possible, as
it has been demonstrated that pure
food displays can be made 10 appeal not
only to common sense but to the eye.
Many we'll known firms have already
made application for space, who are
principally out of town manufacturers,
but Manager Mcguire intends giving
our local producers OF food products the
first chance to secure space. The aver
age exhibitor will be a liberal giver
and few will pass through the building
without carrying away enough for at
least one square meal. In, order to rem
der this possible, man will be sta
toned at the door who will present each
one entering with a large paper sack
in which to carry off the spoils. AS the
admittance will be but % cents, and as
a really industrious person ought to &C
cumulate at least 81 worth of food, it is
calculated by the knowing ones that it
will be cheaper to attend the EXPOSE
ton than to stay at home. A taking
feature will be the daily demonstrated
lectures in cooking my Miss Mary Lam
son Clarke. of the Boston Cooking
School. These lectures will be really
school of art and instruction to every
housekeeper, and women and young
girls will appreciate the opportunity Of
witnessing pure goods going through
the process of good cooking, which the
exhibit will present.
Concerts will be given every after
noon and evening, and arrangements
are being made with the. several rail-
roads running into Wheeling for ex-
cursions every day during the eXposi-
ton from towns within 100 miles dis
tant Thus it will be seen that the
pure food exposition will be a good
thing for Wheeling in more ways than
one.

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
Positive Cure for Dyspepsia.

This may read as though We were
putting it a little strong because it is
generally thought by the majority of
people that dyspepsia in its chronic
form is incurable or practically so.
But we have long since shown that dys-
pepsia is durable, nor is ii such a diff
ficult matter as it at first appears.
The trouble with dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting. starving
themselves, or going to opposite ex-
tremes or else deluging the already
Overburdened stomach with "bitters,"
after dinner pills" etc. which inva-
riably increase the difficulty even if in
some cases they do give a slight tenn
porary relief. Such treatment of the
stomach simply makes matters worse
What he stomach wants is a rest. Now
how can the stomach become rested,
recuperated and at the same time the
body nourished and sustained.
This is the great secret and this is
also the secret of the uniform success
Of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. This is
a comparatively new remedy. but its
success and popularity leaves no doubt
as to its merit.
The Tablets will digest the food any
way, regardless Of condition OF stom-
ach.
The sufferer from dyspepsia accord
ing TO directions is to eat an abundance
of good. wholesome food and use the
tablets before and after each msal and
the result will be that the food will be
digested no matter how bad your dys-
pepsia may be. because as before stated
the tablets will digest the food even if
the stomach is wholly inactive. To il
lustrate cur meanig plainly, if you take
5000 garins of meat, eggs or ordinary
food and place it in a temperature Of
9S degrees. and put with it one of Stu
arts DYSPEPSIA Tablets it will digest the
meat or eggs almost as perfectly as if
the meat was enclosed within the
stomach
This stomach may be ever so weak
yet these tablets will perform the work
OF digestion and the body and brain will
be properly nourished and al the same
time radical. lasting cure of dyspe-
STA will be made because the much
abused stomach will be given, 10 same
extent. much needed rest.
Your druggist will tell you that OF all
the many remedies advertised to cure
dyspepsia none of them has given so
complete and general satisfaction as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. and not
least in importance in these hard times
is the fact that they are also the cheap
est and give the most good for the least
money.

THE INTENSE HEAT.
No Such Weather in April for More
than Twenty Years.
A Maximum Of Ninety Three and
a Half Degrees Reached Yester-
dav. Which Was Probably Never
Exceeded in this City During the
Present Month.
TIE prcoRD FOR THE WEEK.

The man who runs the general Weatn-
err department of the government at
Washington sent out, Friday night,
prediction that for Ohio, West Virginia
and Western Pennsylvania the weather
during Saturday would be cloudy, cool
er, with occasional showers.
How badly he was off is shown by
the fact that it was as clear as 1T could
be. was hotter, and there were no show
ers.
This sort of thing won't do. He has
predicted cooler weather for to-day, but
nobody could be found yesterday VINO
had the slightest confidence in any
thing he might say, and the sooner this
individual shuts up his Office and quits
the better it will be for him and for us.
First thing this weather man knows, he
will get his name in the papers as the
personification of utter unreliability.
Seriously, the spell of weather we are
passing through, and which it is to be
hoped reached its grand climax yester-
day, breaks all known records in the
upper Ohio Valley for high tempera-
ture. and in the country as whole FOR
general abnormal conditions. We al
ways have thin streak of warm wealth
err in April, but as far as can be ascer-
tanned from local records, we have new
er had anything like this week, as set
forth at the top of this article. The
records taken and preserved by Mr.. G..
Schnepf, the Opera House druggist, go
back to the summer Of 1876, or twenty
years, and an examination OF them
Yesterday did not disclose any higher
April temperature than SO degrees, and
that for but one day, and in almost
every instance the maximum was fol-
lowed by a sharp decline to reasonable
figures. The following table of April
maXimums is taken from Mr.. Schnepfs
