There is no change in the local base
ball situation. Messrs. Coyle and Her
rington put in the entire day in look
ing after a suitable location for park.
In the morning a conference was held
with Mr.. Henry Schmulbach and Man
ager Wright, of the Street Railway
Company, with a view to securing the
old location of 1895, on the upper end
of the Island. Mr.. Schmulbach has not
yet made up his mind about what he
will do with his Island property, and
for that reason the conference termin-
ated unsuccessfully for the base ball
interests.
Messrs. Coyle and Harrington next
turned their attention to the Giles pro-
perry, which was under consideration
for some time last spring, and which
possesses all the advantages as to size,
grading and location, as the Schmul-
bach property. The base ball gentle
men submitted a proposition. upon
which they were promised reply with
in a week. An effort has also been
made to interest the street railway
companies operating lines on both sides
of the river
Messrs. Coyle and Harrington will re-
turn to Pittsburg this morning and
will be back in Wheeling during the
first part of next week Last night he
informed the sporting editor OF the
Register that he had received an offer
of 5000 and free ground to take his
team to Erie Pa.
We have made a proposition here, "
he said. and are awaiting an answer.
If it is favorable. we will go right
ahead. Mr.. Harrington is still signing
good players. and will have team of
pennant winners when the season
opens. We do not ask a cent from any
person, except those who will be direct
" benefited. and if our plans are car
ried out, Wheeling will have first class
article OF base ball.

A LARGE AUDIENCE.
Present at the EvangeIlstic Services, Last
Night.


Last evening was very favorable Tor
the evangelistic services at he Ihird
Presbyterian Church and the audience
was larger than any present at any pre-
vious service. The lower portion OF the
city is thoroughly stirred up as Rev. D.
T. Montgomery, who has been preach
ing each night of this week, is a Drill
liant talker and holds the attention OIL
his audience throughout his address
His pleas have not only been eloquent,
but effective as well, judging by the re-
suits of the few nights work. Rev. X.
r. Bigger. the pastor of the church. Is
greatly encouraged and announces that
Mr.. Montgomery will preach every
night during this week. Rev. Mr..
Montgomery is not only qualified Tor
evangelistic work by natural ability, but
has also had wide experience in THIS
work. He is now pastor of the Pres
byterian church at Cameron, and dur
ing his brief residence there was IN
strumental in keeping the saloons out
of the town, and also created
religious awakening such as the place
has seldom experienced. Mr.. Mont
gcmery preached last night an !nsplr-
ing discourse, taking his text from
Luke. 18th chapter, first verse: Lord
teach us to pray" He will preach
special sermon Monday night that Will
attract much interest Rev. Mr.. Big
ger will fill Mr. Montgomery pulpit at
Cameron next Sunday.

| cavalry, artillery and state company
drills will occur each day which will
afford a program of exciting enter
tainment, the equal of which has new
er been seen in our city.
During the month of June we can
count on ideal weather as a rule, and
the event has practically nothing to
fear from a rainy spell as would be
the case in most any other available
city in the country. Our people need
but to get together on some basis and
guarantee the prizes so that the COM
panies invited to participate may be
assured that responsible parties are
back Of the enterprise, and the total
expense Of promoting this project
would not exceed $1,000 or $500
which would be largely used in ad-
vertising and maintaining the neces-
sary organized force to make the mat
ter a success. So far as the guaran-
tee Of the prizes are concerned, that
has proven in the past of no conse-
Quenec. An interstate drill was
held at Galveston some years since
and the guarantee Of the prizes made
by the citizens together with all the
expenses were paid out Of the gate
receipts, leaving a handsome margin
of profit of many thousands of dollars
for the drill association. The inter-
state drill held in Mobile, Ala.,-a city
of half the size Of San Antonio and
with only 1900 white people-made
a profit Of $1,000 besides offering q
magnificent list of prizes. In every
instance, east, west and south where
these events have been brought off in
a businesslike way they have not only
paid expenses. including the prizes. but
have left dividends Of most substan-
tial proportions to the promoters.
There is no reason why San Anto-
MO with absolutely no chance of fail
ure on account of the weather, and
with every other factor for success
right in ourhands should not succeed
even beyond the mark set by past in
terstate drills. This meeting on to-
morrow night at the Business Mems
club will develop whether our bust
ness men and those interested desire
to have this military carnival held.
Every citizen who is interested in the
subject is urged to be present and
lend his advice and encouragement
to the project.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.

Claims TO BE a Bcnefactor Tt

There is always more or less sus-
picion attached to anything that Is Of
fered free but sometimes a man so
ovsftiows with generosity that he can
not rest until his discovery is known
TO the world, in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has dis
covered. 1t Ia upon this pricipal that
a resident of Kalamazoo, Mich, de-
sires to send free to mankind pre-
scription which will cure them of any
form of nervous debility; relieves
them Of all the doubt and uncertain
ty which such men are peculiarly liza
BILE to and restores the organs to nat
ural size and vigor. As it costs moth
ing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize
what might be the final result, ought
to be deeply interested In remedy
| which will restore them 70 health,
strength and vigor, without which
| they continue to live an existence OF
| untold misery. As the remedy In
| question was the result OF many years
| research as to what combination
would be peculiarly effective in restor-
Ing to men the strength they need. II
would seem that all men suffering
| with any form OF nervous weakness
ought TO write for such a remedy at
once. A request to II. e. Odds, Box

are not sending for the prescription

to make use OF the medicine by giving
