April 10. 1896, and evidently partially
writ,en by he mother Of the deceased
and partially by his brother. This

one hundred and sixty pounds. He
had bsel working =. The Ae,na-Stald-
ara mill.
A. first il was thought that the neck

gave rise to a suspicion of foul play,
but later an examination by physician
reversed the first opinion as to the
fracture, and there is no certainty as

THE WAR RESUMED.
Ernest II. Mctzner Consents to Make the
Fight for Committeeman in Centre.

Ernest IL. MclZner consents 10 ihc
Fight for Committeeman in Centre.
Since the withdrawal of Mr.. Charles
Bachman as candidate for Republican
Committeeman in Centre district,
against Mr.. James X. Hall, the Oppo-
sition to the Ohio county Republican
ring has been casting around industrl-
ously for a gentleman willing to fill the
vacancy. Last evening it was announc-
ed that Mr. Ernest r. Metzger had con-
scented to allow the use of his name, and
the battle will now be resumed right
where it left off when Mr. Bachmann
came to the conclusion that the pace
was too hot for him.
Ii will be recalled that the Register
published the inside facts relating to
this delightful row within the g. o. p.
Since that publication, however. things
have been happening right along, and
it looks very much as though another
chapter in local politics would have to
be written before the week is out.
Meanwhile the Republican ring is do
ing business at the same old stand, and
the favored candidates are prosperiDg
accordingly.

i SERIOUS FIRE
On the Ohio Hills, Opposite This City.
Last Evening.

On the Ohio Hills, Opposite This City,
Last Evening.
About six o'clock last evening brush
fire on the hill back Of and south Of
West Wheeling got away from Who
ever kindled it, and was soon sweeping
through the brush and woods covering
the upper portion of the hillside until
five or six acres Of ground had been
burned over. The wind was very high
at the time, and the fire ran clear TO the
tops of the tallest trees, at times the
flames rising fully to a height of seven
ty-fve feet, estimating from this city.
The fire burned for two hours, and
had it not been for the heavy rain which
came up just before seven O'Clock would
undoubtedly have covered much more
ground, and possibly have destroyed
valuable property. The blaze attracted
great deal of attention in this city,
particularly on the South Side and the
lower portion Of the Island.

A thousand trees on ten acres will require 5000 pounds of fia- ings, which costs iS4 per ton-$1O for the ten acre orchard Of course the application of iron is not intended to supersede all other fertilizers, but simply to supplement- them in order to give a good color to the fruit and en- able the grower ito put an attractive orange on the market and incidentally to assist him occasionally in winning a gold medal. The railroad shops at San Bernar-dino can furnish one ton per day of this material, and other shops can also assist in supplying the demand.

IRON AS FERTILIZER.
It Gives Color to Fruit and Strength
 to Growth

About the only defect ever charged on the fruit of the Salt River vahley is 'thlat it lacks color. The sun gives the sweetness, the lime of the soil gives size and quamtfty, but the element of iron is almost entirely missing in the upland. In this connection the follow ing from southern California journal is interesting:
 The man who took the medals for the best box of packed oranges at the late California citrus fair has been ex- perimemtflng with iron filings in his young orchard. Being master me- chanic of the Santa Fe system in southern California at San Bernardino he knew more about iron filings than he did about guano or amy other fer tilizer, and, knowing that a certain amount of iron in the soil was essen- 'tial to a healthy growth of the tree and the production of fruit, he put five pounds of this material around each

sold?

how fluently the dealer Stutfs

1t Is Not
Reasonable

To suppose that a dealer who

knows values, as no novice
can know them, would
charge you for his knoWl-

makes it easy for him to pur-
chase right; and to sell right.
We claim to carry the best
goods known in our various
lines, and quality considered
sell them lower than most
houses in our line of trade.
1t is quality we brag on; it
is the backing we give our
goods which make them

question but what our
