ANOTHER FAILURE.

Board of Arbitration, Returns to
Columbus Without Efecting ANY
Compromise in the Bellaire Strike
Other Bellaire Notes.

Joseph Bishop, Of the State Board
Of Arbitration, returned to Columbus
yesterday, after making a second
fruitless attempt to bring the steel
company and the striking employees to-
gether. Arbitration has not much
force when one side is under the i'm
preston that they have everything
their own way The company is run
ming it's plant and refuse to make any
compromise with the men. 1t is evil
dent that the company is determined
to run it's mill non-union, and have
stated that they will hire none Of the
old men except as individuals. They
also say they reserve the privilege of
employing those Of the old men whom
they please, as there are some whom
they refuse to take back under any
consideration. The strikers are still
firm and do not show any signs of
yielding. 1t is stated that some of the
men at the steel plant who refused to
join the strike have had their hours of
labor reduced from ten to nine each
day.

A concert was given at Musical Fund
Hall, Philadelphia, on Saturday even
ing, February 23d. The
bright, particular star of the concert
was Valentine Abt, the talented young
mandolin soloist, whose perform
ances upon the mandolin we have
yet to hear equaled. Mr.. Abt's Sc
lections consisted of the Andante
from Concerto Op. GA, of MeadStssohn,
and Impromptu, by Paganini, together
with other numbers equally as diff
cult; all of which were rendered in a
style of finish and with such perfect
case that the applause was sponta-
neous and terrific. Mr.. Abt stands erect
while playing the mandolin, the same
as a violinist or fiutist would, and yet
appears to have a more complete mas
terry of the instrument than those who
"sit themselves down to play" He is
surely a Mandolin Virtuoso, and if he
keeps on as he has begun, the world
must hear from him.-Stewart' Jour
nal.

Miss Hennig to furnish two numbers

DIR. True's Anniversary.

birthday anniversary of DR.. j. F. True of
Auburn, Me-, it was remarked that the oc-
casion itself was striking tribute to the
value of the elixir which DIR. True discover
ed nearly fifty years ago. He has been a
consistent taker of his own medicine and at
tributes to it his wonderful vitality and
activity, equal to those of most men of sixty
five. DR.. True early adopted the study of
natural history and especially botany, and
became so proficient in these studies that he
has long been recognized as an authority.
These studies led to the discovery of DR..
True's Elixir which has been household
remedy for nearly half century, and which
has endeared the Doctors name to many
thousand people,

George William Curtis, which the Harpers
have just brought out, twas suggested
by some remarks of a college professor, in
the course of which he said that about a
dozen of the 'EasyChair essays in Harper S
Magazine SO nearly cover the more vital
questions of hygiene, courtesy, and NOR
ality that they might be gathered into a
volume entitled AIRS Recte Vivendi, and
as such they are offered to the public. -
All of the papers, which are brief and
pointed, display the grace of style, the
I sanity of Judgment, and the tineness of
feeling for which Mr.. Curtis is remember
ed. They are, moreover, models of the art
of editorial writing, and might be studied
with profit by every young journalist.
One of the most timely papers in the collec-
ton might, indeed, have been written for
| those young men who have adopted, OF
are thinking of adopting, journalistic
work. 1t is entitled Newspaper Ethics, ~
and it presents very clearly and simply a
statement of the place of the newspaper
in the community and of the means by
which its vast influence may be directed
for the public welfare. The other essays
are on the following subjects: 'tExtrava.

Captain Rivers of the American ship A.
G. Ropes is in quandary as to how he will
pool, but cannot secure the eighteen men
necessary to man his vessel. According to
instructions received from Washington, the
United States Shipping Commissioner must
get bill signed by the sailor, showing the
amount in which he is indebted to the ship
ping master, the boarding master, the store
keeper and others. "Jack' is satisfied, but
the others are not, as half the sailors now
being shipped owe them nothing. In conse-
quence they are supplying all the English
ships that are ready to sail and are leaving
the American vessels in the lurch There
will be trouble with every American vessel

The Missing Girls Story.

The Maine papers recently printed extend
ed accounts of the return to Belfast of a girl
named Nellie Brown, who disappeared from
that city III January, 1892, and was believed
to have committed suicide. Many people in
this section of the State were rather surprised
that they had never heard of the sensational
incident before. The reason, it seems, is
because it all didn't happen in Belfast at all,
but in diego, Y. Mrs. Susie p. Vose of
156 Union street, has sent us a copy of the
Utica IN. Y. } Globe of January %, 1892,
containing an account of the disappearance
just as it is described in the recent publica-
tions as having occurred in Belfast We
presume it is the Nellie Brown who has now
returned to diego; but how Belfast got mix
ed up i'll the shuttle we cannot imagine-un-
less because Belfast is always bound to have
hand in anything that is sensational

Probably it did not happen anywhere, but
was simply a manufactured sensation.
