ARE HOME AGAIN.
Wheeling Veterans and Others from
West Virginia Home from the
Buffalo EnCampment.

The old soldiers and their families
who have been attending the national
G.. A. r. encampment at Buffalo, have
returned home. The majority from
Wheeling came home Saturday morn
ing over the Baltimore & Ohio at 10: 80.
The trip was made to Pittsburg over
the Baltimore & Ohio from there 10
Youngstown over the Pittsburg & Lake
Erie. and from there to Buffalo over
the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern.
Among those from Wheeling were
Richard Robertson, who commanded
the West Virginia department, Joseph
A. Arkie. who was adjutant general,
also William F. Grade and wife,
daughter and son-in-law, Robert Tay-
lor and wife. Caleb Sylvis and wife, II.
J. Felber. Mr.. Holt and others. There
were about one hundred and seventy
five West Virginians in the parade, al
though there were many other veter-
ans from this State who did not turn
out.
The Buffalo encampment was the
largest ever held with the exception OF
the one held at Washington, d. c., in
1892. Forty or fOrty-fve thousand
men paraded Owing to the fact that
the soldier boys are not strong physic-
allv and able to march as far as they
were some years ago, the route was de-
creased and did not extend over dis
lance Of two miles.

Arthur W. Bikker Has Travelled Over
Three Thousand Miles.
Arthur w. Bikker, who is tramp
ing" it from Wheeling to the Klon-
dixie, writes to the Register from Troy
Mont Station, on the Great Northern
railway. He has had a rather tough
experience, riding in cattle cars, being
side-tracked, and occasionally being
put off trains. His nerve helped him
out at Oswego, Mont, where he met a
cattle trader, and got a pass for 300
miles. At Havre, Mont, ne met an
old friend whom he had not seen in
five years. From him he secured an
order for board in a first class hotel for
an unlimited time. He tried regular
meals and a bed for three days.
At Troy. Montana, Bikker INDUCED
in the luxury of trout fishing, catching
twelve in four hours. He has crossed
the Rockies. and by this time is prob
ably in Seattle, Washington. having
accomplished a journey of $500 miles
from Wheeling in less than three
weeks and without a cent Of expense.

The general committee Of the Ohio
Valley Trades Assembly, in charge OF
the demonstration on Labor Day, held
a meeting yesterday afternoon. The
various subcommittee presented their
reports, giving approximately their net
receipts. The affair was successful be-
yond the anticipations of the commit
tee. After all bills are paid, there will
remain a balance of about $500 for the
treasury of the Assembly. This is the
principal source of revenue Of the CEN
trail labor body, and the proceeds Of
the picnic Saturday will be a guaran-
tee against any assessment of the To-
Gals affiliated with the Assembly, for
the purpose of meeting expenses.
The gate committee reported receipts
amounting to s45S. The admission
was ten cents, and this sum therefore,
represents 4,53O persons. The one
thousand striking miners were not
charged admission, and they bring the
attendance up to $500. In some feat
ures there was a falling off in receipts
compared with last year, notably for
the dancing platforms and privileges.
The following statement is compiled
from estimates furnished by the chair
men of the subcommittee:

for restoring the tired out nervous
