charmed life While working on the
top Of a pole in New York he received
an electric shock and, losing his head,
jumped to the roof Of the building, a
distance Of 70 feet. He escaped un-
harmed, and in a short time was back
again at work. At another time he
was painting a flag pole on school

slipped through the roof like shot and

His greatest feat was the placing OF

has been in business he has climbed
2,2O7 flag poles and sixty-three steeples.
He uses no scaffolding whatever. When
he climbs a steeple he afixes little

Ono Of the most curious and at tho

followed by any man Is that which has
made famous the individual known 80
''the American steeple climber" What
his real name Is has never been ascer-
tanned, but under this cognomen he is
known throughout this country and
Europe. That he Is man Of rare nerve
and daring is shown in the many peril
Gus feats he has performed in his par
t!cular calling and in spite Of many
hair-breadth escapes from being DASH
ed to death he is still in love with his
peculiar profession.
Sixteen years ago, when he was
sailor in the United States navy, he
performed his first feat Of climbing.
when he gilded a cock on the top CT
a steeple at Bremen. The authorities
offered a large sum Of money to any
man who would do the job and tthe
American steeple climber" was the
only one who had the nerve to tackle
It. He decided to adopt steeple climb
ing as a profession and has since foi-

CLEVELAND PARTY
Will Be Received by a Committee Of
the Chamber Of Commerce---The
Committee Appointed Yesterday
A Trolley Ride Probable.

The Chamber of Commerce has re-
ceived very meagre information in
connection with the visit Of the Cleve-
land Chamber of Commerce to this city
tomorrow evening. For this reason
arrangements for their reception and
entertainment must be made upon a
very modest scale. President Hullihen
Quarter stated to Register reporter
yesterday afternoon that he had re-
ceived no further information relative
to the matter, although telegram was
sent to Cleveland in the morning.
President Quarter has appointed a
committee on entertainment which will
take proper action. The committee is
composed of B. w. Peterson, John D.
Culbertson, H. F. Behrens, Joseph
Speidel, Major Ran Stalnaker, L. e.
Sands. Henry Baer, Frank E. Mccoy,
Cecil Robinson, c. Russell Hubbard, J..
c. Brady, f. c. Caldwell, Charles w.
Franzheim, George Wise and Philip
Henry Moore.
President Quarter stated that while
no definite form of entertainment has
been decided upon, the committee will
probably meet the visitors and there
will be a trolly ride through Wheeling
and its suburbs either Wednesday
evening or Thursday morning, more
probably the latter.

Richard Nolan, respected and we'll
known citizen of Benwood, died yes
terday morning about half-past three
o'clock. Some weeks ago he received
a paralytic stroke while working at the

over the effects of this stroke until
Monday, when he was afflicted with
another, more serious, and which ended
his life. He leaves a wife and a num-
Der Of grown children He was 5S
years of age and lived in Wheeling a
good many years, having been engag-
ed in business there. He since resided
in Benwood for eighteen years.
w. F. Craig, a Wheeling jeweler,
was in town yesterday looking for some
stolen jewelry which he thought might
have been pawned in Benwood. Some
time during business hours some per-
son came into the store room and took
a miniature ship from the window. The
ship was studded with diamonds and
contained a number of handsome rings
and several watch cases. The loss
amounts to several hundred dollars. 1t
was not discovered until the next day
and the Wheeling police have been try
ing since to find the stuff.
The Epworth League gave an en-
joyable sociable at the NJ. E. Church
last evening.
To-day is city pay day.
AS Halloween falls on Sunday this
year it will be celebrated on Monday

laid. The Council ordered these parties
to connect. Assessor Blake stated that
the county commissioners will hear the

WORK ON TWELFTH STREET.

To the Editor of the Register
Sir:-f anything were needed to
demonstrate beyond question the ex-
travagance and incapacity of some OF
our city boards or officials, or both,
it is the work going on on Twelfth
street the past week or two. Electric
light poles are being removed from
place to place, costly flag pavements
are being mutilated, to-day in one
place, and in another day or two in
another place of the same pavement
The Board of Public Works, with it's
surveyor, seem to be engaged in the
very laudable work of changing grades
and pavements. 1 don't know who has
to foot the bills, but there certainly
seems to be reckless waste of city
funds. | am informed that this lat
ter board have caused the removal of
the electric poles in order that it may
carry out its plan Of rounding the
corners of the pavements of the city.
We have had some good business men
on the Board of Public Works in the
past, and we have had some very well
qualified city engineers in the service
of the city; it is strange that none OF
these ever thought of rounding the
COIueTS Vi city pdN0meuIS. WIN OllS-
mated this rounding business? What
interest demands it? And who will it
benefit?
The Horkheimer-Forg plan of re-
funding the city debt is necessary If
this waste of public money is to con-
,, tinue. A few days ago the Elm Grove
road had it's grade fixed and track laid
on Twelfth, west of Main street. To-
day, by order of Surveyor White, as |
am informed, it lowers the track some
three to five inches. | am also in
formed that the costly flag pavements
at Twelfth and Main streets are to be
changed, or rounded, at city expense,
and that costly corner stones have
been ordered from a distance to COM
plete the rounding. By all means pass
the observation-disclosures refundlng Or
dinance, that the work of reckless eX-
travagance may go on
