The practice of jumping on and off
moving trains, INDUCED in by many
boys in the city, and particularly those
living near to and freQuenting West
Yard, is exceedingly dangerous, and
should be broken up IL wholesale ar
rests OF the youthful offenders have to
be made. Boys have a wholesome re-
spect for the law when they know that
it will be enforced, but when they are
permitted to break it time after time
without suffering the penalty they de-

GOLD DAY" TROUBLES.
The Manager Assaulted Yesterday - Mr.
Fishers Plans.

The Gold Day" company met trouble
IN large sized chunks when it struck
Wheeling. AS a result all the dates for
this week have been cancelled, and the
homogeneous awaiting Developments.
Tuesday night Mr.. Fisher decided to
discharge two or three members OF the
company, one Of whom was John Parke.
Mr.. Parke declined to accept payment
Tor his services TO date, alleging that
he was entitled to two weeks notice,
and salary for that time. Mr.. Fisher
declined TO settle on Mr.. Parke's terms,
and yesterday morning Parke renewed
the discussion with Mr.. Fishers part
ner, Mr. FraUnhar.
The discussion took place in the Of
flee Of the Stamm House. Parke
brought matters to crisis by a per-
emptory demand from Mr. Fraunhar,
to which the latter declined TO acceGe,
whereupOn Parke struck Fraunhar with
his fist. The victim OF the assault al
leges that it was entirely unprovoked,
and his version Of the story is substan-
tiated by other members OF the COM
pany. A telephone message was i'm
mediately sent TO police headquarters,
but when Lieut.. Ingram arrived, Parke
had [-'appeared, leaving his overcoat
behind. A warrant was sworn out Tor
him before Justice Phillips, but the
constable could not find him.
Mr.. Fisher said last night that he in
tended to remain here to fight the at
tachmest proceedings against him by
Miss Harvey. These cases have been
set for hearing next Monday. Yester-
day Mrs. Fisher appeared before JUS
tice Caldwell, and demanded possession
of her trunk, which is at the Grand.
and has been levied upon. Other
members of the company will probably
demand their individual property.
The cold Day" company has been
billed week ahead, and the manage
ment will be put to considerable ex-
pense and loss, which Mr.. Fisher init
mates that somebody will have 10 make
good.

STOLEN FROM THE CITY.

Chicago, March 1.-THE Times-Her-
aid to-day says
Thousands of dollars have been filchet
from the cityItreasury through a clever
scheme concOcted by three tax sharks,
a clerk in the comptroller's Office and
another in the special assessment
bureau. The steal was accomplished
by forging special assessment tax re-
ceipts. 1t is possible that $4,000 slip
ped out OF the peoples vaults before
the conspirators were detected. Sev-
eral arrests are probable.

EACH WANTS THE COURT HOUSE.
Snecial 10 the Rerister


Ceredo, W. Va, March 1.-THE ques-
ton of locating the court house at this
place, or Kenova, is now being strongly
agitated by the citizens of both towns.
L. T. Peck, superintendent of the Ken
ova Land Association, has offered the
large hotel, which was begun there
several years ago, and one square, the
best location in the city, the valuation
of which is about $4,000. Both towns
are fighting for the building. In all
probability it will not be rebuilt at
Wayne.

What turned out to be the heaviest
snowfall Of the present winter, in the
region drained by the waters OF the
upper Ohio. commenced yesterday morn
ing between eight and nine O'Clock, and
continued without interruption until a
late hour last night. The early morn
ing was quite warm, with the mercury
at 81 and the indications for rain, as
the barometer was low and falling. BY
nine o'clock the thermometer had
dropped one degree. and a light snow
began TO fall. melting at first as last
as it fell. The flakes soon cane down
at much more rapid rate, while tie
thermometer and barometer continued
to go down slowly, and at noon the
ground was covered to the depth OF at
least three inches. which was increased
to four by half past one, and 20 five by
three. AT this time the barometer
touched IS 90, while the Thermometer
had fallen to 30 degrees. The barom-
eter remained almost stationary until
six o'clock i'm the evening, WIEN 1t be-
gan to rise slowly, standing az }S.Il at
1880 D. m. At 6 p. m. the thermometer
was 26. and falling slowly, while the
wind was blowing a stiH breeze iron
the north. drifting the snow badly III
exposed situations At eight O'Clock
the snowfall began to grow lighter,
and the flakes much smaller, and at il
p. m. the fall was small but steady,
with a promise of continuing 10 some
extent for some hours TO come. AZ
midnight several measurements, both
i'm the city and on the Island showed
an average depth Of nine inches, but IN
the country. where it laid on the ground
better than i'm the city, the depth would
undoubtedly average ten inches. by
this morning the snow on the ground
will undoubtedly have settled by an
inch or so. The storm was g6herai
throughout this part OF the country.
Last night Morgantown reported nine
inches on a level and still showing
hard. while fifteen inches was reported
from the mountains of West Virginia.
Greensburg. Pa. reported nine inches
and Pittsburg the same depth.
Much colder weather is promised for
to-day. and if it turns out that way the
snow will probably remain FOR some
DAYS. Should a rain follow, as is prob
able this late in the season, a river OF
at least fair proportions may be eX-
pected.
A few sleighs ventured out last night,
and more will probably be seen to-day.
The street railway had pretty hard
work to keep the tracks clear and cars
on time. but managed to keep up the
schedule very we'll.
Miles upon miles of sidewalks
throughout the city were in bad shape,
last evening. but as snow was still fall
ing. the city ordinance was not opera
tive. Last night the B. p. w. in
structed Chief Bennett to see that the
law was enforced to-day. but unless the
authorities do a great deal better than
usual this will amount to nothing.
The police might make few examples
with entire propriety, commencing
with one or two members of Council,
who as a rule pay less attention to the
snow ordinance than plain ordinary cit
liens.

formed Old-Time Sport.

From the Gutter to the Pulpit" Is
the subject Of an address to be given
by Rev. NJ. w. Pratt in the rooms of the
Young Mems Christian Association on
Sunday afternoon at $3.50 o'clock. The
lecture Is short history of Mr.. Pratt S
own life, and contains, it Is said, a
great deal of instructive thought The
lecturer was at one time a drunkard
and a gambler, and more than thirty
years ago was accustomed to frequent
haunts of sin and vice in Sacramento.
The rooms Of the association furnish
the coolest audience room in the city,
which IN part accounts for the contin-
ued interest and numbers In attend
ance upon the Sunday afternoon meet
ings. A large number Of men and
boys over II years of age are expected
to listen to the interesting lecture ON
Sunday.
Some very important and necessary
improvements have been undertaken by
the Woman's Auxiliary. They have
already arranged to have a partition
built in the readingroom thus forming
a. small room to be used as a private
office and physical examination room.
Other changes will be made in the read
ing-room, which will add to the con-
venience and appearance of the place.
More improvements will be added in
the fall. which will materially aid the
association along the line of the educa-
tional classes.
During the month of June 615 baths
were taken in the association bath
rooms, and during the prevailing hot
season the number taking baths has
greatly increased
