The Benwood Council held a regular
meeting last night, and passed upon sew
eral matters of Importance to the town.
The applicat tons of thirty-two saloon
keepers for yearly licenses were received
and approved. If all these licenses IRE
taken out this means a revenue to the
city of $500. The expected petition of the
saloon-keepers, asking for promise Of
rebate or an agreement to grant them
quarterly licenses, did not materialize
The petition died "a-bornin'," as the sa-
loon-keepers were not very confident of
inducing the Council to act faVorably
upon it.
The Council ordered bills to the amount
of s., POI 20 TO be paid. OF this, $l,S7S.05 was
to pay off a note held by the Barnard
Brick Company. of Bellaire, for material
purchased TO pave the streets. \ portion
of it was also to pay the police officers
and city officials their monthly salaries.
The ordinance was passed empowering
the surveyor to survey for the new sew
erage system to he established through
the town. as previously mentioned. c. c.
Smith of Wheeling, will be employed to
do the work. and just as soon as he has
finished excavations will be made for the
sewers.
The local water supply corporation again
failed to present their ordinance to Coun-
ell. and none of the members were present
to make any statement as to when the
company would be ready to present their
case The Council voted to give them
until next meeting to have their PROPOSE
ton ready for consideration. II they do
not appear at that time. other corpora
tons or companies will be invited to come
in and furnish water 10 the consumers of
Benwood. 1t is presuped that the new
company. which is composed nearly all
of Benwood parties, have not yet been
able to secure terms from Wheeling for
supply OF water, but their inaction and
failure to report was criticized somewhat
at last nights meeting. The Benwood
consumers are very anxious for a diff
ferent water supply system being provid-
ed before next winter.
The City Recorder reported that the
railroad taxes, amounting to $2,15954 had
been received from the Auditor OF the
State. Samuel Blake, the newly elected
City Assessor. filed his bond last night.
which was approved and he was sworn
into office. He will commence making his
assessments at once.

works for eight or nine years, and Is

of Directors from Marshall county, was
unanimously chosen as treasurer.

APPALLING FIGURES
Which Prove the Great Care That shouiu
ho isxercised by Those Who Love Life'

Tho average number of deaths in New
yorl, CITY for five years. has been $50 each
week. OF this number 2SS. or nearly one
half. have been from pneumonia, con-
sumption. or some pulmonary troupie.
This is not theory, but actual figures
made by the Board of Health. Nearly
eighty thousand people in five years IN
New York City alone have died from
throat and lung troubles! When we
think of the thousands who had throat
and lung diseases, and who have recovered
how terrible an array of facts does this
present.
Doctors have said in the past that most
Of these troubles were incurable; they are
now finding such is not the case. The best
physicians declare that a man or woman,
even in an advanced stage of consumption,
can live for years and even 10 old age, Dy
a careful and constant use OF pure WINS
key. but il should be remembered that the
word PURE is always used by. physl-
clan. There is but one absolutely pure
whiskey. and that is Duffy's malt In its
purity rests its great power, although IL
whiskey. 4 child can take II without any
evil effects. and for restoring partially
consumed lungs building waste tissue, and
giving health and strength IN the place OF
disease and weakness il stands absolutely
without a rival. Care should be taken TO
secure only the genuine. Do not trust any
dealer who tries to substitute something
in the place of Duffy's, but insist on hay

EASE RALL NOTES.

The actual number of paid admis-
sions yesterday was 1,126, which was
very good crowd for the opening day.
If the weather had been warmer there
would have been 1900 paid admissions.
The Mansfield players regarded vic
tory es certain after the fifth inning.
The crowd "rooted" hard, however,
when the opportunity was presented,
and this led several of the visiting
players to look up into the grand-stand
and remark good-naturedly, "Oh. it's
tough boys. to lose the first game"
Their faces were longer than their
bats in the last inning.
Such terrific batting as Mansfield did
yesterday. will win a majority Of its
games. The local players were on deck
with their little sticks, also.
Pitcher Jack Easton arrived yester
dav from his home in New England.
Smith Whaley arrived during the pro-
gress Of the game. and occupied a seat
upon the players bench. Smith may
hold down second in to-day's game, in
which event Wheeling will present the
strongest infield in the Interstate
league. Easton will hardly pitch in
any OF the Mansield-Wbeeling series
