on the part of the directors of the AS
ISOLATION. H. G. Pratt, the Associa-
items attorney, was named as the as
signee. The news of the assignment
was received with general surprise
about the town, as the Association
was supposed to have been in good
condition
Later in the day it became known
that quite number of people interest
ed in the Association have been having
good deal Of trouble in getting their
money out, and, in fact, the greater
part of them were unable to get any of
it. Suit was threatened by one of the
creditors, and the directors, being thus
pushed, thought it best to assign. A
large number of the creditors were paid
up stockholders, having certificates
ranging from $500 to $4,000
The liabilities of the Association will
reach well on to $4,000. while their
assets, which consist for the most part
of mortgages, will foot up about $40,
0C0. The directors say if they had not
been pushed that they would have been
able to pay dollar for dollar before an
other year had passed. The main
cause of the collapse was the heavy

even in the worst stages, without pain
or loss of blood, quickly, surely and

that will do it-Pyramid Pile Cure.

which y worthy tho Patroaags Of the
WHEELING Public
A reporter for the Register yesterday
had the pleasure of making complete
tour Of the furniture and carpet house
and undertaking establishment OF
Cooey, Furbee & Bentz, corner of
Thirty-sixth and Jacob streets. The
extent of the business transacted by the
firm, and the variety and comprehen-
siveness of their stock was something OF
a revelation to the newspaper man, and
he came away feeling sure that the en-
ergy and enterprise of the individual
members of this young firm entitled
them to the patronage of large pro-
portion of the people of the city. and
particularly of the residents Of the
Eighth ward.
The store is large one, and it is
filled to its capacity with carefully
selected line of goods, ranging from
the finest to that most commonly in
use, and at prices as low as is consist
ent with good business management.
Here is to be found everything essen
tial, from carpets to lamps and from
pictures to couches. Furniture for the
parlor, bed room. hall, dining room,
reception room and kitchen is shown
in bewildering variety. and in addi-
ton many fancy articles suitable for
the decoration and Establishment of the
home. The line of carpets, rugs, oil
cloths, linoleum, etc, is also very ex-
tensive and covers wide range of quail
tiles and styles as well as prices.
This firm, since it inaugurated bust
ness, has made most favorable I'M
preston among its patrons and the
general public, and their course and
dealings has been such as to bring them
much wider clientage, particularly
from the southern portion Of the city.
If you are in need of anything in the
line carried by this establishment, call
and inspect their stock and have prices
and terms quoted you.
