RELIABLE EARLY NEWS

The patrons and readers of the Reg
lister, yesterday morning, were given
every line of news from the Philip
pines which came over the cable from
Manila to Madrid, Lisbon or Paris, but
they were not treated to grape vine
specials written in New York Or Pitts
burg. No paper had more real facts
than the Register, and 1t was available
hours before the padded accounts of
out-of-town papers reached this city.
and We were not driven to the expe-
diency OF reprinting accounts clipped
from other papers twelve hours old.
The Wheeling morning papers give all
the news as soon as it is known in this
country or Europe, and there is no re-
yamping OF reprint" and no rewriting
OF skeleton bulletins The Associated
Press has all the reliable news all the
time. and its regular service is the most
complete available for the public, while
its day bulletin service is as heavy as
the alleged news service of would-be
rivals.

A soUEAL FROM CINCINNATI

A SQUEAL FROM C1NCINNAll.
The Cincinnati bowlers, upon re-
turning from this city, found IT in
cumbent upon them to explain away
their defeat by what was tipped as
an easy thinfi." Accordingly, they
hung their complaint upon the only
pretext which was offered, the illegal
ball used in two games. lnasmuch as
the two games were thrown out, and
the visitors suffered defeat in three of
the remaining four, it is likely that the
level-headed Cincinnati bowlers will
lock upon this as an explanation
which does not explain. Cincinnati
devotees of the game will have an
opportunity to judge of the respective
merits of the two teams within a few
weeks and the wise ones will with
held their judgment until they are
furnished ocular evidence of the
superiority Of the swell-headed Gin
