BICYCLE UNTON'S YORK.

/ The committee on streets of the Bi- cycle union has completed it's organiza- tion. and laid out it's work for the i'm mediate future In order to lay foundation for it's future action, it has determined to get out a detailed report of the condition of all the streets in the city. The work of preparing this re- port has been divided among the mem- bers of the committee and their re- spective deputies and the report itself will specify the nature of the pave ments, how the street is repaired, if at all: whether refuse matter is thrown upon it; how it is Watered, and such other information as may be of value.
 This information will all be noted upon a map of the city streets drawn to a, large scale, and divided into wards. The immediate work for the members of the committee and their deputies is now to observe and note the manner in which the street railway companies take care of that portion of the streets through which they run, and for which they are responsible. This report, which embraces all wards in the city, is ex- pected to be ready in January.
 The committee is also discussing the nuestion of an agitation in the general carving of lanterns after dark, by all vehicles, bicycles, light wagons and carriages of every description.

When 1 first knew E. w. Buell. he
was young man of 25, full of fire and
vim. l met him coming up the Ohio
on the steamer Ohio No. 8, from Ports
mouth, where he was clerk in drug
store. Ed was fine young man, and
his death caused many heart to ache.
The family still reside in Marietta.
Doctor j. d. Cotton is now about rs
years old. He has practiced here ever
since l was boy. His father lived on
the corner just west of Front street,
and was famous physician. The old
gentleman died some years since. He
kept drug store on Ohio street few
doors from the corner of Greene, known
as the boiler corner"
Everybody knew Joel Tuttle. He
was what is known as an "Innocent" +"
During the war he used to gather the
boys on the boiler corner and read the
war news from an old newspaper. He
would give US columns of news from
the front, and the whereabouts of all
the armies engaged. Poor Joe died

An Attachment Case.

Justice Jones.
Parker g. Duke and Berry & Deem
Jointly owned valuable lease on the
Jacob Schilb farm in the Big Kate
field. Schilb brought action in the
Circuit Court to haye the lease declared
void on the grounds of noncompliance
of contract by not drilling a we'll in
the time specified, and lost McCluer
appeared for the defendants, who
have since had split up among them
selves, and he found it necessary to enter
suit for $500 for services rendered. At
tachment papers and an order of sale
were issued by the Justice and Con-
stable Fox, who went out today to sell
the lease, which is considered very
valuable one.-Sentinel.

THE MARKET.

There was no change in the oil mar
ket during the past week, but the oil
exchange market would indicate a rise
in the price The Standard has prac.
tically broken up the Oil Exchange,
by refusing to be governed by its
prices, and all the exchange does now
is to bet whether the market will &C
up or down. The betting is firm now
that it will advance. This may be a
mistake, but that is the way the bets
are being booked now. The price on
exchange is s1.21 barrel.
The demand for refined oil in barrels
has again fallen off, and the engage
ments during the past week have been
almost entirely for bulk shipment
The stocks abroad are said to be only
moderate, but the season of smaller
consumption is approaching, and a
falling off in the foreign movement
would not prove surprising. The total
engagements for the week amounted
to about 125, 900 barrels. Crude for ex-
port has been in fair request. and sales
of about 40, 900 barrels are reported.

Pumps Gave Out.

East Liverpool, O., April 2l.-The ex-
pected breakdown of the old pumps
of the waterworks at Wellsville, four
miles east of here, occurred this after
noon, when the machinery gave out,
flooding the pump house. Eight thou
sand people are now without water.
The city council held special meeting
tonight to confer with the representa-
tives of the pump manufacturer, but
the session was secret and results were
not announced. A month ago the
proposition to sell $50, 600 bonds to buy
new pumps was voted down by the
people.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gen.

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-

Gunderman, of Dimondale, Mich, we
are permitted to make this extract: Il
have no hesitation in recommending
Dr. 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 Dr. Kings New
Discovery; it was quick in its work
and highly satisfactory in results. u

Information comes from Toledo that
a plan is afoot to consolidate all the
bicycle manufactures of the country
into one gigantic trust ami SO keep up
the price. The plan is scarcely likely
to ever take shape. The industry of
making bicycles has become too thor
oughly diffused to admit of it's concen-
tration. 1t is too easy for little shop
to pop up here and there, just as a
little or big distillery was forever open
ing up to disturb the tranquility of the
danes of the Whisky trust. A sewing
machine trust is just as practicable as
bicycle trust. The sewing machine

Gloomy Spring Day.
Sort of shivery, showery day;

Nothing worth while;
Sky lowers down in a smothery way.

Make talk to your neighbor
And get for your labor
A sulky, short YES" or a short, sulky mo-"
Kind of day when you sit and feel blue,
While suspicious creep in,
OF your friends, or your kin,
Or of anyone else who is probably true.
But. somehow or other. your thoughts wan
der off
To a pleasant old time
When the world ran into rhyme,
And you lose your desire to cavil and scoff.
You think Of the lassie you won for a
bride,
And the laughter and tears
OF the subsequent years,
When-hello! there. 1t seems to be brighter
outside.
The clouds of dependency speedily part;
Your suspicious take flight
The old world is all right
For the sunshine of love is at work in your
heart.
