Almost every man in America has
some digestive trouble. When men
meet, the greeting usually is, "Well,
how are your" That develops health
talk. The man who has no bowel or
stomach trouble is almost a curiosity.
Trouble is, men take no care of them
selves. They eat as though they had
copper stomachs and bowels of brass.
BY and by, overwOrked nature rebels.
Then come headache, nervousness, bad
blood, liver and kidney troubles. DR..

GEORGE N. VARNEY.
Death OF Popular and Excellent Young
Man, Yesterday Morning.

Death OF Popular and Excellent Young
Man, Yesterday Morning.
Yesterday morning about ten min
utes after nine o'clock death ended the
career OF one OF the best known. most
popular and altogether estimabie young
men Of Wheeling.
George NJ. Varney breathed his last. at
the hour named. at his home, No. las
South Broadway. surrounded by his
family. relatives and sOrrowing friends.
Death came after much suffering and a
prolonged but hopeless contest in
which all that medical skill and loving
care could do was exhausted in beh%lf
OF the patient. The immediate cause
of death was Brights disease, compli-
Gated with a serious affection of the
liver Symptoms of Bright's disease
had been apparent for a long time
past. but Mr. Varney was enabled TO
continue his aVOCatiOn of engineer UNI
til about a month ago. About that
time he took a trip and course Of treat
ment at Cambridgeboro Springs, in the
hope of obtaining relief, but the result
was not what had been hoped for. At
ter his return to the city his disease
took a more serious turn, but the best
of care and medical attention brought
about an apparent improvement, and
the patient was enabled TO leave the
house for brief intervals once or twice.
and to sit in the open air on fine days.
He was last outside his sick room last
Friday evening about six o'clock. Sat
urday his condition became more ser
ious, and Saturday night and Sunday
he became worse Sunday afternoon
his condition was very serious, but he
rallied somewhat only to die yesterday
morning.
Deceased was a native of Wheeling,
and was an engineered more than COM
mon attainments. Up to 1899 he was
in the employ Of the Riverside Com
pany. but resigned his position to be-
come superintendent of the city water
works. an office which he filled for
four years with signal ability. Upon
the expiration of his second term. the
present spring. he resumed his old po-
sition with the Riverside, and there
continued until his last illness made it
impossible to continue his duties. He
was a member Of the Masonic frater-
nifty and Knight Templar, of Wheel
ing Commandery. and was possessed
of a very large list of warm personal
friends. a fact which was abundantly
attested during his illness. His wife
and one daughter, Myra, survive him.
The funeral will take place Wednesday,
afternoon at . o'clock the interment
being at Greenwood

WHARF BOAT MOVED
The Wharf Boat Moved Down to the
Foot of Twelf h Street at the Re
quest of Numerous Business Men.
A Danger to Wagons and Teams
Removed.

Yesterday the wharf boat was moved
from its old moorings. opposite the ran
Handle depot. to about four hundred yarus
further down the river. at the foot OF
Twelfth street and just above the ferry
landing. This required considerable labor
bu was successfully accomplished last eve
ming. Cant. Crockard moved the boat at
the urgent petition of the numerous busl-
ress men whose teams travel daily on the
wharf to get and send shipments Of river
freight.
The business men have petiuoned the
owners of the wharfboat for two years past
TO move farther down the river so as 10
save their teams and wagons. Rarely
day has passed that an accident has not
happened, such as the breaking down OF
wagon or making a horse lame, by the eX-
tremeiy rough surface of the wharf over
which they are compelled 10 travel. By
bringing the wharf boat farther down the
distance for teams travelling across the
wharf will be greatly lessened. The moor
ing place for the wharf boat furnished
harbor sufficiently deep for all the packets
to make landing. The locals henceforth
will have to land above the wharf boat
instead of below. as formerly.
