Since the passage of the Wheeling
and Elm Grove railway ordinance by
Council the engineers of the Company
have been working every day upon the
surveys, plans and specifications for so
much of the electric line as lays within
the city limits, and last evening this
labor was completed, and to-day the
plans and specifications will be ready
for the inspection of bidders. In act,
a number of contractors have already
been notified, and it is the aim OF the
Company to have the contracts let by
the 18th or 18th inst, and the WORK
commenced forthwith and completed
by the first of November. The central
idea of the Company is to have this
road strictly up to date, and embracing
all the latest Improvements and ideas
in electric street railway construction,
and to this end the engineers have en-
braced in the specifications rails weigh
ing ninety pounds to the yard, or ten
pounds heavier than those required IN
the ordinance The excavation along
the line of the track will be twenty
one inches deep, and in the bottom
will be placed six inches OF broken
stone, upon which the ties will rest.
The heavy rail on top of the ties will
come up flush with the level OF the
street, and the space between the stone
and ties and the brick paving will be
filled up with screened gravel. The
poles and wiring will be Of the very
best to be had for money. The line
within the city, covered by the Council
franchise, is 235 miles in length. 1t
will begin, for the present, at the cor
ner of Fourteenth and Water streets,
where a diamond turnout" will be
located, to permit of the passage of
cars. Thence the line runs north along
Water street to Twelfth, east on
Twelfth to Eoff, and south on Eoff to
Fifteenth, where it turns east and fol-
lows Fifteenth to McCulloch, and
thence to Baker street, with a branch
at Twelfth and Chapline running south
on Chapline to a connection with the
present track at Chapline and Six
teenth. At Baker street the line turns
east, crossing the creek, on bridge to
be erected by the Company, right
alongside of the present city bridge,
and thence takes the left hand side of
the Peninsula road, to the west end
of the bridge crossing the creek at
Fulton, at which point the city fran
chise ends and the county franchise,
yet to be granted commences. The
specifications provide that the prefer
ence shall be given home labor at all
times, and very considerable force Of
men will find employment on the work
for at least two months.
To-day the plans and specifications
will be open for bidders at the Office
of Brown & Hazlett, civil engineers,
City Bank Building, and all interested
parties should call.

FOR THE BABY.
A valuable Hint to Every Father and
Mother.

A valuable Hint to Every Father and
Mother.
There are two kinds of babies in the
world; the kind who have too little
nourishment and the kind who have
too much.
The first kind of babies starve be-
cause their stomachs are too weak to
digest the amount of food necessary
for their growth and healthful devel-
opment and the other kind are over
fed with the result that the delicate
stomach and intestines are inaamed
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-
manded. Go to the root of the trouble,
assist the child's digestion, give the
little stomach the aid necessary to
thoroughly and promptly digest its
food and the little one will thrive and
grow and gladden. the mothers heart.
To give perfect digestion to the child
it is only necessary to give in pleas
ant form the harmless digestive con-
tanned in the well known tablets sold
in drug stores under the name OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets contain no so-called
drugs, but are composed of pepsin,
pure aseptic, fruit acids, starch diges-
tives and are put up in lozenge form,
with sugar Of milk, very pleasant TO
the taste, and have been used for
years as the safest, best remedy for
any form of indigestion and stomach
troubles in adults, but recently many
remarkable cures have been made in
the cases of weakly babies who failed
to grow and thrive as they should.
A Buffalo mother a short time ago
who despaired Of the life Of her babe,
was so delighted with the results from
giving the child these tablets that she
went before the notary public Of Erie
county n. Y, and made the following
affidavit:
Gentlemen-Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets were recommended to me for my
two months old baby, which was sick
and puny and the doctors said was
suffering from indigestion. took the
child to the hospital, but there found
no relief. A friend mentioned the
Stuart Tablets and | procured a box
from my druggist and used only the
large sweet lozenges in the box and
was delighted to find they were just
the thing for my baby.
l feel justified in saying that Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets saved my
child's life.
MRS. w. T. DETHLOPF.
Subscribed and sworn TO before me
this 18th day of April, 1897.
HENRY KARIS.
Notary Public in and for Erie Co., N. Y.
For babies, no matter how young or
delicate, the tablets will accomplish
wonders in increasing flesh, appetite
and growth. Use only the large sweet
tablets in every box. Full sized boxes
are sold by all druggists for 80 cents,
and no parent should neglect the use
of this safe remedy for all stomach
and bowel troubles if the child is all
ing in any way regarding its food or
assimilation.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets has been
known for years as the best prepare
ton for all stomach troubles whether
in adults or infants.

A PECULIAR PREDICAMENT.

A Sixth Ward Young Man Goes to Sleep in a
Box Car and Wakes Up in Pittsburg.
A Sixth ward young man found him
self in very peculiar and unexpected
predicament yesterday morning. Dur
ing the night he had been imbibing
too much, and crawled into an empty
box car on the Terminal road to sleep
off the effects of his spree. Waking
up yesterday morning, he found that
the location of the car had been
changed while he was lying asleep.
Getting out of the car, he found that
he was in the yards at Pittsburg. He
was consequently away from home and
without means. He therefore tele-
phoned to Wheeling and money was
sent him with which to come home.

A Short Sermon to the Pastors.

The Forum is pleased to assure the min
listers Of this city that the paper called "Uncle
Sam" was prohibited from going through
the mails and has suspended publication. Its
editor, an intellectually moral outcast, has
left the State. The JOURNAL of this city
sneered at the efforts of the ministers to keep
that filthy sheet out of Frostburg homes.
The last sentence at least is untrue.
But whether the Association ought
to remain exempt from ''sneers' de-
ponds upon its acceptance of the Forum
as its organ.
And now, since this subject has been
mooted, the JOURNAL is quite free to
express it's belief that had Uncle Sam
made that indicate remark concern
ing the JOURNAL, the Association
would not have held that Indignation
meeting, adopted that protest" and,
unlike the Master, appealed to
Caesar"
This, of course, is speculation, but
the fact that the Forums advent SEEM
ed to fill some sort Of a political as
we'll as religious long-felt want in a
breast or two is significant. Hence,
these could not permit any defamation
of the teentsy- tootsy-woo.
Again:
By the way, is the JOURNAL going to charge
the Ministerial Association regular Hines Il
Son. rates for publishing their Memorial"
to the postmaster-general?
The JOURNAL has always been liber-
al to the minlstry-this frequently
without apparent appreciation. 1t
has placed hundreds of items in its
reading columns for them when it de-
MED that privilege to all others.
When it has not been able to make
'readers" of religious notices. they
have gone into its advertising space
on the same terms-soih0ut charge.
In the case of the "Memorial"-it is
a signed specimen of such miserably
bad rhetoric that the JOURNAL could
under no circumstances feel RESPONSE
BILE for it. Hence, it went in as an
advertisement.
But, hold-the JOURNAL must be
just as well as generous. The names
of two members are absent from the
paper; also the name of one estimable
pastor who does not belong to the AS
ISOLATION because they quarrel too
much ~
How can it be otherwise when so
many things other than the plen-
ipotentiary work of the Meek and
Lowly One must be regulated and
administered
To bring this unwelcone topic to
close--the JOURNAL trusts the ministry
the 'organized" ministry, will sub
tract naught from the sum of its re-
ligious faith for investment in the
Forum. Even those who "put their
trust in princes" are frequently con
founded.

A Word tOGuestS.

Never stare at the carver. Remem-
Der you are invited to dine, not to take
a lesson in carving. Appear perfectly
unconscious of his efforts; glance
now and then will give you an insight
into his methods. There often seems
to be fascination about carving
which silences all tongues and draws
all eyes to the head of the table. The
most skillful carver will sometimes fail
if conscious of being watched. With a
little tact the hostess can easily engage
the attention of her guests that the
carver may not be annoyed.
