NORTH WHEELING POTTERY.
1t Should and May BE Again Placed in
Operation.

Operation.
1t really seems a great pity that such
a fine pottery plant as that situated in
North Wheeling should remain idle,
without awakening more public spirit
and enterprise on the part OF citizens,
in a community like Wheeling, having
every advantage for carrying on that
particular kind of an industry, natural
gas. ineXhaustible coal fields, and
splendid shipping facilities, together
with the good reputation already at
tanned by other potteries in the city
There are other advantages that might
be mentioned
1t would seem as though the city
really possessed advantages or induce
ments superior to any found elsewhere.
The plant referred to is in every way
specially fitted for the manufacture OF
china and earthenware, and is con-
sidered TO be one of the best built rae
tories for that purpose in this country;
and il is understood that the present
owners. who are engaged in another
business. are willing to sell or lease on
very liberal terms to have this industry
continued in that part Of the city. IL
ought to be a matter of pride with our
citizens that this pottery be put in sue
cessful operation, which could be done
by citizens forming a new company
under the management of thoroughly
competent pottery superintendent, one
who possessed experience and ability 10
make ware durable in quality, and OF a
class which can be produced rapidly,
or in large quantities, as the market
requires.
Il is now conceded that the pottery
business has a bright future and gives
promise of better remuneration. The
discontinuance of the use OF these
buildings as a pottery would be a mat
ter of regret to enterprising citizens
and would only gladden. the hearts Of
and enhance the value of other pottery
interests held in neighboring towns ana
cities. -
II is hoped citizens will show public
spirit and enterprise enough to have
this industry continued, now that there
are such fine buildings here, which, Il
in operation. would give employment
TO a large number of hands.

Word has been received by Miss Ella
O'Hare. of No 1916 Jacob street, that
her brother, Robert O'Hare, a we'll
known young man of the Eighth ward

Perplexed by these somewhat conflict
ing reports she is anxious to know

married man, but has been travelling
about the country for some time.

quests from some Of his admirers in this
city. lie will play a Copriccio and Ma
zurka Of his own and Mazkowsd's most
difficult etude. That Mr. Jonas has at
tanned one OF the most prominent posi-

at his summer home I'm the south OF
France.
The bringing Of this noted artist here
Is an enterprise which should receive the

opportunity TO show whether musical en-
tertainments Of the highest order can
command the recognition they deserve.

The packers of the two local pot

It is alleged by one Of the nailers
of the Laughlin nail factory that the
management are undertaking to get the
nailers TO work by the day Instead
of by the keg. This would reduce their
wages nearly one-half, to about the rate
paid the nailers in the Wheeling fac

cession from the men that the mill has
been kept idle during the greater part

managers are getting the La Belle mill
TO fill their orders, claiming that they
can save money by so doing.

WILLIAM WAVES wRoTH.
German Monarch Excited Over Sails
bury's Prompt Rebuff.

BERLIN. Feb. la-The newspapers Of
this city reflect the bitter resentment felt
by Emperor william al the rejection by
the Marquis Of Salisbury Of his majesty ;
personal proposal TO coerce by a joint
blockade of the Piraeus, the port Of
Athens. by the fleets Of the powers in or
der 10 check the wariike demonstrations OF
Greece
The emperor's proposal caused great
surprise ia diplomatic circles, as IL was
generally assumed ne would not oppose
Greek pretensions in regard TO Crete ow-
ing 10 his sister. Sophia. being the wife OF
the Duke OF Sparta. the crown prince Of
Greece, but It appears there has long been
an absolute estrangement between the en-
peror and his sister arising from an old
time quarrel, and his majesty. in addition.
never has been over-friendly to the royal
family OF Greece.
In diplomatic circles II is surnni-ed that
Emperor Williams dignity was injured in
some manner. probably by the firm atti-
tude assumed by Greece in the face of the
remonstrances of Germany; hence the ex-
treme proposal 70 blockade the Piraeus
vas urged by him. with unusual vehe-
mence, through the ambassadors here
upon European cabinets.
The Marquis OF Salisbury, without hes-
tation, promptly declined the smperor's
proposition. saying that public opinion in
Great Britain would never acqufesce Ia
such a policy.
