TO JOIN THE STRIKE.
Leaders Among the Miners Claim
That All the Miners of Wheeling
and Vicinity, Including BOggS Run
and Glendale, Will Be Out Next
Week.

Last night the miners Of the vicin-
ity of Benwood held meeting to dis
cuss the local mining situation and 20
consider plans to induce the working
miners of Wheeling and neighborhood
to come out in sympathy with the gen
eral strike. No definite plan was adopt
ed. but the meeting was not unsatis-
factory. The miners depended to some
extent upon the meeting to have been
addressed in this city by w. ID. Mahon
last night. VIM. Anderson, who is at
the head Of the miners organization
of this district, stated last night to a
Register reporter that he was satisfied
that next week all the miners Of Wheel
ing. Benwood, Elm Grove and Glendale
would be out. He based this predic-
ton on assurances which he had re-
ceived and which he did not consider
doubtful. He stated at Elm Grove
fifty miners were out and about four
teen working. At Boggs' run the ma
iority were working, but there were
some who remained out and wanted
the others to join the strike. At Glen
dale about all were working and not
only furnishing coal to the b. & o. en-
gines but shipping 1t outside and furn-
fishing the Wheeling Iron and Steel
Company with supply. The Benwood
miners have refused to go 10 work
and are still out.

A valuable Hint to Every Father and

There are two kinds OF babies in the
world; the kind who have too. little
nourishment and the kind who have

The first kind of babies starve be-
| Cause their stomachs are too weak to

| for their growth and healthful devel-
opment and the other kind are over
fed with the result that the delicate
stomach and intestines are inflamed
and as every mother knows, thousands
of infants die yearly when warm
weather begins. from stomach and
bowel disorders.
Opiates, soothing syrups and cathar-
tics, however mild, are not what is de-

little stomach the aid necessary TO
thoroughly and promptly digest its
food and the little one will thrive and

ment and disloyalty of some OF its
officers. The organization OF to-day in
cludes many Of the members OF the
old organization who, though not
bound by the ties of fraternal or

and fostered a spirit of good fellow
shin among themselves and were not
content until again more closely united
in the bonds of fraternal organization.
Though young, the association is pros
porous and rapidly increasing in
members. 1t is expected the coming
meeting will be a we'll attended one
and will mark an epoch of rapid growth
in the order.

TROUBLE ABOUT THE GROUNDS

All the parties interested in the
Wheeling ball club, the Wheeling fran
chise and the local grounds met yes
terday. but could come to no conclu-
sion. The Coyle interest demanded $50
a day for the grouds, which Mr.. Tor
reyson declined to pay He offered $40,
which was rejected, and the result is
that while there is a Wheeling club in
narie. there is not in fact. The club
will play at Mansfield to-day and to-
morrow. and will be at New Castle all
of next week and probably at Youngs-
town all Of the week after. The flu
ture movements of the club are uncer-
tain. but it will probably settle down
at Canton. Mr.. Torreyson will leave
the cit ythis morning to look after the
club personally. He has about given
up hope Of making any deal for the
grounds this year, and the season is
too far advanced to locate and fix up
new grounds. but he said last night he
would be here by a large majority
next season and would have better
grounds than ever before. Thus per-
ishes miserably the Wheeling season Of
1897.
