American Securities Abroad.

The sales OF American securities
have been, according to London,
advices, very large abroad of late,
and there appears to be a tendency
toward increase in the sales. If this
state of things holds, there will be
an increasing influx of British gold
into this market. This is good news
and demonstrates the faith abroad
in the stability of our credit. There
is another point OF faith for which
the people not only OF this but
foreign countries have good grounds
for credence, and that is, belief in
the efficacy of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters for inorganic maladies
which affect the stomach, liver,
bowels, kidneys and nerves. Dys-
pepsia. biliousness, constipation
rheumatism, and a tendency to
insomnia, are counteracted and
conquered by it. 1t rallies failing
appetite, hastens convalescence,
and difruses a generous warmth and
sensation of physical comfort
through the system. A wineglass-
full before retiring promotes health
yielding slumber.

The silver men in the Senate have
shown their colors, and by large
majority took up the Teller resolu-
tion declaring that the bonds of the
United States may be paid in silver
1t was the program of the presi-
dent to force a currency reform
bin through the House in order to
put the Republican party on record
in favor of sound money The
banking committee was to report
a bill, or more than one, If an agree
ment could not be reached, which
would be made the subject OF dis
cussion in the House, in the news
papers and among the people, and
them some sort of compromise
substitute was TO be passed that
might furnish an issue for the next
congressional campaign. Fearing
this would be successful, the silver
men in the Senate took the initia'
tive to demonstrate that silver SEN
timent is stronger instead OF weak
er than it was at the last elections
and they have accomplished their
purpose.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The continued success of the Wilbur
Opera Company Isl remarkable consid-
ering the number Of high class musical
entertainments in this city during the
past few weeks. The secret lies in the
fact that the company presents high
class and finished productions at popu-
lar prices. Yesterday afternoons bill
was Grand Duchess" and last night
a very pleasing production of "Beggar
Student" was given to very appre-
ciative audience. The singing by the
male Quartette and Anna LaUghlin,
the child wonder were repeatedly en-
cored Their selections for to-day will
be entirely different from anything
heretofore offered. The bill for this
afternoon will be, the most laughable
of all comic operas, La Mascotte" To-
night an exceptionally strong cast will
appear in the always popular Mari
tana."

A PLEASING ENTERTAIN MENT.

Was the Concert and Social Given by the
Last Evening.
A very pleasing entertainment was
given last evening under the auspices
of the Knights of St. John, in the Car
roll club auditorium. The attendance,
while fair, was not as large as the gen.
eral excellence of the programme de-
served. After an overture by Meis-
ters orchestra the Rev. Father Moye
delivered a happy address of welcome
in which he referred to the aims and
objects of the Roman Catholic union
Knights of St. John. Vocal solos by
Mrs. Flora Williams, Mrs. M. E. Whit
aker, Miss Gertrude Reister, Mr.. Fred
Danvers and Mr.. VIM. Clemans were
we'll received by the audience. Prof.
Arbenz, director Of the Wheeling Con-
servatory of Music, was the accom-
PIANIST. The recitations rendered by
Miss Bessie McNichol and Master
Chas Gillegan were very pleasing.
The Misses Mitchell and Miller were
seen to advantage in their pretty fancy
dance. The piano solo by Master
Harold Brannen is also deserving of
special mention. The Orpheus Male
chorus were up to their usual standard
of excellence and rendered two selec-
tons. After the concert dancing to
Meisters' delightful music was contin-
ueed until an early hour.

Fairmap stopped IN 1ead1 for the 1aw
and played Tor TIC body.
The fourteenth was lively from the
start, with the Pittsburger apparently
as strong as Gardner, and giving a
blow for every one he received. Eddie
forced Fairman into corner as the
bell rang.
The fifteenth showed both men to be
in earnest Eddie landed several jabs
in the stomach, and the rounded ended
in his favor. Gardner continued his
stomach jabs in the sixteenth, two Of
them bringing grunts from Fairman.
In the seventeenth Eddie put two light
lefts over the heart and rushed his OPP
ponent to the ropes, raining rights and
let's without return. Fairman swung,
missed and fell against the ropes.
Gardner got the first knock-down to
his credit in the eighteenth. The men
had spared cautiously until near the
close, when in mix-up at close quar-
tiers Eddie sent left hook on the
chin, and Fairman dropped backward.
He was on his feet when Pearce had
slowly counted nine, and the bell
sounded a second later.
Eddie played cautiously for the
wind in the nineteenth, but Fairman
was refreshed and strong. The Pitts
burger fought defensively. A left
hook on the jaw sent him to the floor,
and Pearce slowly counted off seven
seconds. Eddie thought it was all over
when Fairman came toward him, and
was about to shake hands. But Fair
man defended himself in the rush
which followed, and was again saved
by the gong.
In the twentieth both men spared
cautiously for about ten seconds, when
Gardner closed in, but inflicted no pun
ishment. Eddie played for an opening
and sent a swinging right handler to
the jaw. Fairman dropped, and with
out waiting to count him out, Pearce
gave the decision to Gardner. Fairman
was On his feet within few seconds
and shook hands with Gardner.

The Indian Social given last even

Union of the United Presbyterian
Church, in the church Sunday school
room, was a great success both socially
and financially. The Sunday school
room was gaily bedecked with bunting
and in the room three fantastic wig
vans containing Indian trinkets for
sale were guarded by dusky Indian
maidens and warriors in all their war
paint and feathers. There was a war
dance participated in by the warriors,
maidens and two pappooses. After the
dance refreshments were served to the
large crowd present. Quite a neat
sum was realized for the church.
