forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease. but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-

GETTING STOCK.
The Committee Busy Raising Stock
to Start the Old Hobbs Glass
House--Riverside Employees Have
Not Fad Their Wages Restored
Yet,

AS mentioned exclusively in the Reg
lister Thursday, a committee of South
Side citizens commenced a canvass
among the business of the lower part
OF the town to secure enough stock to
start up the old Hobbs glass house,
which has been idle for four years.
They started out with the purpose Of
getting about 100000 more, as $4,000
had been raised, and $4,000 or $4,000
was deemed necessary to purchase and
fully equip the plant with new ma
chinery. Since last Tuesday the COM
mlttee has been working steadily and
have been meeting with mich en-
cOuragement, although some few of the
old stockholders are not disposed to
be greatly enthusiastic over the plan
to run the concern by a stock company
composed of so many stockholders. IN
addition to this, one of the old stock
holders of the glass house said yes
terday that no option had been Sc
cured on Factory III" and while they
had received some assurances that it
could be gotten for $4,000, yet the
United States Glass Company could
raise the price if they were so dis
posed. The last time that the project
to start the plant was considered the
United States Glass Company asked
more than twice that price for it.
The project of the Riverside work
men to make an effort to secure
restoration of their old wages seems
to have dropped bottcn," at least,
temporarily. A meeting of the tube
20
slider the matter, but at the appointed
time only a few were present, and the
men went away without any discus
sion. Since then the employees have
practically decided to wait for the COM
pany to restore their wages when they
feel that business justifies it.

A BAD CROW D.
Another Freight Car at Benwood
Discovered Yesterday to Have Been
Robbed.--A Crowd of Youngsters
Who Are Charged With This and
Previous OffenseS.

The Benwood boys who were arrested
for breaking open and stealing from
Ohio River freight cars were not tried
yesterday as expected, the attorneys for
the railroad company not appearing to
commence prosecution. The cases,
however, will he tried the FIRST of the
week. Yesterday the Benwood police
discovered that another freight car had
been broken into and merchandise
stolen from it during the night They
also found a box of tin, which had been
taken from the car, lying on the river
bank Members of the same crowd who
are charged with the former offense are
held responsible for Friday nights rob-
berry, and the Benwood police are ex-
pecting to make other arrests. Ben
wood has a tough crowd of youngsters
whose exploits equal those of the cele-
brated DIRTY Dozen" who infested East
Wheeling several years ago.

IT'S WEIGHT IN GOLD.
NEW DISCOVERY WHICH Is WORTH
THAT MUCH
To Anyone Aniicted with PILES.


The Pyramid Pyle Cure, the new,
painless remedy which has been SO re-
markedly successful in curing every
form Of piles and rectal diseases, has
recently been placed on sale at drug
glsts and it is safe to say that when
its extraordinary merit becomes fully
known, there will be no such thing as
surgical operations for the cure of this
obstinate and common trouble.
Mrs. NJ. c. Hinkly, of COL Mississippi
St., Indianapolis, Ind, says: | had
been terrible sufferer from piles for Is
years and no remedies benefited me,
until l saw an advertisement of the
Pyramid Pile Cure; 1 got a package,
also a package of Pyramid Pills, and
used both according to directions. 1
was astonished at the immediate RELIEF
obtained and now l honestly believe
the Pyramid to be the only certain cure
for piles.
That you may realize how bad was,
l Will say that l was confined to my
bed and went before the college ply
sicians here, who said my case was a
new one to them and wanted seven or
eight hundred dollars to undertake a
cure; the great pain had brought on a
would be death to me on account or
blood poisoning. Nearly everyone here
knows of my terrible suffering from
piles and feel that l cannot praise the
Pyramid Pile Cure enough, and the
Pyramid Pills also. My husband will
join me in highly recommending the
Pyramid. My daughter was cured by
one box only. For several years 1
weighed but about 80 pounds. now 1
weigh $50 and feel in perfect health
This seems to be the universal testi-
mony of every sufferer from piles who
have ever tried the Pyramid; it is the
safest, most painless pile cure yet dis
covered; contains no opiate, morphine,
cocaine or any poisonous ingredient
whatever, has a soothing, healing eff
fect from the first application and the
moderate price places within the reach
OF everyone needing treatment. The
Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by druggists
at so cents and $1.00 per package and
the Pyramid Pills at 25 cents a box.

Yesterday afternoon between three
and four O'Clock, John Donnelly, an old
man living near Mt. de Chantal, was
brutally assaulted on the National pike
couple of miles east of the city and
seriously injured. When the injured
man arrived in the city last evening he
was in sad plight and after some per-
suasion he permitted a physician to be
sent for and have his wounds attended
to. DR.. Walter Spargo was summoned
and dressed his injuries.
Mr.. Donnelly in addition to being
quite old is partially paralyzed. He re-
lated his story, stating that his assailant
was Len Zilles, a boss at the old Wheat
brick yards, near Mt. de Chantal. He
said that his wife kept a boarding
house near Mt de Chantal, boarding a
number Of the men employed at the
brickyards According to Donnellys
statement he ordered ZilIes out of his
place a year ago because Zilles refused
to pay his board bill. He told him not
to come into his house again. Yester-
day Zilles returned and was again or
dered out. He and Donnelly quarreled
and Donnelly soon afterwards started
for Wheeling, riding a part of the dis
td1Co Win DuCCH6T. lie says lilies
followed him and part of the time rode
in the rear end of the wagon. He got
out of the wagon at turn in the road.
His assailant was waiting for him,
and after first knocking him down,
beat him and kicked him in the face.
Both eyes were closed shut last night
and bruises as big as an apple were I'M
der each eye. There were number OF
bad gashes in his face and it was EVIL
dent that his nose had been broken.
Donnelly also declared that Zilles pre-
viously pulled revolver and threaten
ed to shoot him. Donnelly says that
he was unable to defend himself, as his
right shoulder was paralyZed and that
he was left in the road in a semi
conscious condition. Donnelly managed
to reach the city and was found last
night lying in Winn's blacksmithshop
on Sixteenth street, being so badly in
jured that he could hardly move. He
was bleeding badly and his face pre-
scented most pitiable sight

For the past three weeks Hamilton
Bros. have had force of men working
on the new sewer at Forty-fifth street.
This will be the largest sewer in the
lower end of the city, and will cost
the city snug sum to complete it
from the river bank to the hill, as is
contemplated. At the present, how
ever, the sewer will be laid for only a
distance of about 200 feet. For this
the city has appropriated about two
thousand dollars. 1t cannot afford to
complete it at the present time, and it
will be several years probably before
it will be built back to the hill. The
present job is quite extensive and will
require several weeks more to finish
it. The bottom of the sewer will be
twenty-five feet below the street. The
workmen are now engaged in tunnel
ing underneath the street. A large
hole eight feet wide and sixteen feet
long has been dug into the middle of
the street about thirty feet east of the
railroad tracks. This hole is twenty
five feet deep and reaches to the floor
of the tunnel, which it divides. AS
fast as the dirt and material is dug
out from the tunnel it is hauled to this
ground above, being shoveled from
several platforms placed about six or
seven feet above each other.
The distance from this opening to
the river end of the tunnel is about
sixty feet. Only about ten or fifteen
feet Of this distance remains to be
tunnelled The new sewer will be
built of fire-proof brick and will be
feet inches in height. 1t will be egg
shaped, and at it's widest point will
measure 6 feet inches. 1t will be
laid on concrete bottom nine inches
in thickness, and along the bottom of
the sewer will be laid a half section
of sewer pipe IS inches in diameter.
The brick walls of the sewer will be 8
inches in thickness. AS fast as the
ground is tunnelled through heavy
wooden supports are placed above and
at the sides of the sewer to prevent
caving in. The workmen, in digging
to the river, struck an old stone sewer
that had been laid many years ago. 1t
was about two feet and a half wide and
little over a foot in height Inside
of a portion of it was found the rem
nants of square-shaped box. The
new sewer has been opened at the
river bank at the mouth of this old
sewer, which is just at the Benson
ferry landing. When the new sewer,
to the distance contracted for, is COM
pleted, the old sewer from the hill
will be connected with it.
A large man-hole will be dug at the
connection. When the city decides
that it can afford to complete the sys-
tenn, the old sewer will be dug up and
the new sewer extended back to the
hill. The present enlargement of the
drainage system near the river bank
is big sanitary improvement to the
lower end of the Eighth ward. 1t will
drain that section of the town for
many squares, as the water in times
of heavy rains flows from the hillsides
and from above and below, and has
heretofore accumulated in artificial
lakes and pools and bred sickness and
disease. The people of the Eighth
ward will be greatly gratified, how
ever, when the city makes uD it's
mind to extend the large sewer clear
back to the hill, SO as to afford a better
and more thorough system of drainage.
