SPRINGFIELD, o., November 10
Wheeling is TO have base ball team in
the Interstate league next season. That
is now settled beyond the shadow of a
doubt
The above is the emphatic declaration
made to-day by Manager Frank Torrey-
son. He said he liked the town, that the
Wheeling people wanted the team, and
that with the backing of the railroad
companies it would be foolhardy move
to take the franchise away from Wheel
ing.
The inducements offered by the Michigan
towns have not yet tempted the conserVa-
tive Mr.. Torreyson beyond mere consid-
Grafton of the offer. The street railroad
companies have promised Manager Tor
reyson that they viii furnish him grounds
completely fitted up, and if they keep
their word Manager Torreyson thinks he
will have one Of the best ball towns in
the league.
1t is likely that Wheeling will have
Sunday ball next season, and that will
add a considerable value to a franchise in
Wheeling The offer to come to Saginaw
is still open to Torreyson but a the pres
ent time he is thinking only of Wheeling.
Wheeling park next season will be locat-
ed in the middle if Belle Island Park, and
will be located within ten minutes ride
from four towns. embracing a popula-
ton of over 100000 people. With this
number to draw from the Wheeling fran
chise ought to be one of the most remun-
erative in the league.

TO any one suffering from any OF the
Ills attendant upon continued loss OF
sleep | can and do heartily recon-
mend it. Very truly yours,
MAYME L. HAINES.
In all cases of nervous prostration,
nervous indigestion, neuralgia, sleep
lessness, hysteria or incessant head
ache, the objective point of true
remedy like Paine's celery compound
is to make more blood, gather flesh
and increase the number of red, health
giving corpuscles in the blood
Paines celery compound fills the
vessels with red bloou, drives out inc
dangerous humors and thus gives ;e-
lief to host of aches, pains and
weaknesses.
Women and men who have lost fGsa
and grown coloriesS and are subject
to aches and pains, gain quickly IN
health from Paines celery compound
There is hardly a family of any size
where there is not some member who
is feeble, forever tired and below the
standard of health to whom Paines
celery compound would prove OF in
valuable help. Not only does this
great invigorator drive out the aches
and distresses that have accnmu Gted
because of neglected rheumatism or
neuralgia, but the liberal gain in flesh
and blood that is always noticeable
and encouraging result of its uso,
brings about better health in the diges-
tive, assimilative and secretive organs.
in other words, all over the body.

A SPLENDID CONCERT
Given by the Woman's Musical Club. Yes
terday Afternoon-A List of the Chorus.


terday Aft4rnoon-A List of the Chorus.
The finest concert yet given by the
Woman's Musical Club this season,
was the one heard yesterday after
noon-not only because of the unsur-
passable composers, Bach and Han
del, chosen for Interpretation, but be-
cause the interpreters did the work
intelligently and artistically.
Mrs. Cyrus P. Flick prefaeed the
musical work with a splendid paper,
portraying the lives Of the subjects of
the afternoons study, as well as the
evolution of musical instruments, and
this instructive summary will be pub
lished in its entirety in tomorrow S
edition of the Sunday Register. A
second reading Of this paper will be
doubly interesting, as the writings of
these same composers will be carried
through another recital.
Bach was studied fundamentally,
yesterday, through the prelude and
fugue C minor) artistically played on
the piano by Mrs. B. S. Allison, a
graduate of the College of Music Of
Cincinnati, and who stands to-day as
one of Wheeling's very finest and most

lack, in beautiful violin solo, gave
another number from Bach's writings,
and in rendering it demonstrated
anew her ability and as entirely worthy
the undertaking.
The vocal numbers were all from
the writings of Handel, and consisted
of a trio from "Jeptha, THE Smiling
Dawn" sung by Mrs. Flora Williams,
Mrs E. B. Ryan and Miss Margaret
Harvey, and the exquisite solos from
the Messiah" "He was Despised and
Rejected" He Shall Feed His Flock
Like Shepherd" and Il Know That
My Redee1mer Liveth," sung respect
lively by Miss Margaret Harvey, Mrs.
E. B. Ryan and Mrs. Flora Williams
in a manner expressing all the rever-
ence and sublimity contained in them.
The Choral Club deserves an equal
Share of praise with all the soloists
for its really artistic work as shown
in the rendering of Handlers Largo"
and Mrs. Williams influence as direc-
tor was never better shown than yes

ACME VS.. W. A. c.
The Foot BaIl Game at the Island Park
This Afternoon

Strong and fearless, still smarting under
last Saturdays defeat, the Acme foot ball
team, of Steubenville, will come to Wheel
ing to-day determined to do or die. They
claim to be able to defeat the w. a. c.,
but Bob Edwards says the Acme boys
are not in the same class with the Wheel
ing team, and the score must be more
than that of last Saturdays to Q.
This, however, is putting it a little
strong for steubenville are line buckers
from away back" and tore holes in
Wheeling's line big enough to drive an ice
wagon through, so should they be able to
do it again, there may be a big disap-
pointment in store for the wearers of the
crimson and blue.
1t is claimed that Wheeling will be con-
siderlbly stronger on the line than in the
last game. as several old men who have
been hanging back have signitied their
intention of coming out to get in shape
for the big battle next Thursday after
noon. Thompson, one of the new men,
will be a left guard. and is expected to
show Wei. He played in the first half of
last Saturdays game, and no one "Came
through" him for any material gains.
Gray and Cook of the old team, are eX-
pected to be in line again as left tackle
and center. Gray can hardly pay as good
q game at tackle as Mcfarland Gid, the
position being new to him. AS TO Barrett
or Cook at center. it would be hard 20 say
which is the better man. Cook can stop
anything, even a cable car. but was not
very successful breaking through. To-
days game will decide which is the bet

MARTINS FERRY.

Yesterday afternoon about 8 o'clock
Charles Smith, Of Tenth street, met
with an accident which may cost him
his life. He was at work putting new
roof on one of the departments at the
Aetna-Standard mill, and while going
up the high ladder on which he was
working it broke in two Smith chung
to the upper part of it. When it struck
the ground the shock caused him to let
go, and he fell to the ground, the right
side of his head striking the heavy rail-
ing of the ladder making very dan
gerous wound. He was picked up in an
unconscious condition. A carriage was
called and he was taken to his home.
Medical aid was summoned and upon
examination 1t was found that he was in
very bad condition. Although his
skull was not fractured, it is thought
that internal injuries were sustained,
from the large quantities of blood he
discharged from his mouth. r
Will Smith, who was working with
Charles when the accident occurred, had
one of his ankles badly sprained, caused
by the ladder falling on him.
Thursday evening Mrs. Annie Saun-
ders, wife Of VIM. Saunders, died at her
home on Pearl street, after a lingering
illness, caused from heart trouble. The
deceased was SO years Of age and had

of her death. A husband and one son.

vice will be held at her late home this
morning at 10 O'Clock. The remains
will be taken to Washington, Pa, for
interment this afternoon.
Oliver Cunningham, a colored man
who resides north of town, has entered
suit against the Singer Sewing Ma
chine Company or s555. Several months

Cunningham home while ne was away
and took a machine from the house.
Cunningham claims he had $500 in
gold in one of the machine drawers.

In the Window of One of Our Prominent
Stores.
Ellingham's grocery store, located at
No. 60 Sixteenth street, has in his show
window a few articles which certainly
show up very pretty, with a card stat
ing that they are given by the Mutual
Benefit Supply Company for premium
stamps. Mr.. Ellingham is DESTROYS of
obtaining new trade and says he will
give stamps to all making cash pur-
chases. He would sooner give his GUS
toners the benefit of his advertising
than spend his money for circulars and
similar advertising, which would
amount to the same thing. Some peo-
pie are hoggish, and as they have got to
advertise would sooner spend their
money some other way than give their
customers the benefit Of obtaining use
full and beautiful goods. The public
can tell in very short time if they
would have to pay more for their goods,
and if such were the case, the stamps
would do the merchant no good.

us through other eyes. This
is how we look to S. F. Boyce,
wholesale and retail druggist,
/ Duluth, MINI, who after a
quarter of a century Of obser-

believe Ayers Sarsaparilla to
be the best blood purifier, that

man who has sold thousands of

is strong testimony. But it
