OIL MANS TROUBLES.

Friends of a prominent Sistersville
oil man allege that he has been I'M
justly treated by a restaurant proprie-
tor in that city. He was out of the
city last fall SO the story goes, when
his wife was called to the bedside of
her mother in New York State and
departed after storing her furniture
and notifying the restaurant proprie-
tor, to whom she was indebted in the
sum of SIS. 1t is alleged that during
her absence, her creditor levied on her
household goods, valued at about S375,
and including many keepsakes and
family heirlooms, and bought in the
entire property at constable's sale to
satisfy his claim. The husband was
in Wheeling yesterday, and retained
a prominent attorney He will insti-
tute legal proceedings for the recov-
cry of the goods, alleging certain ir-
regularities, and claiming, among
other things, that the bill was con-
tracted by himself and that the house,
hold goods were the property of his

BIG BLAZE PREVENTED.

A still alarm to the Chemical en-
CINE company No. l at one o'clock yes
terday morning, called two Of the
members to the and 10 cent store,
on Main street where redhot stove
threatened to start big fire at any
moment. 1t was discovered by Night
Waterman Junkins who, together with
the fremen. forced an entrance into
the store by breaking a transom over
the front doors and turning out the
gas. The stove was taken in hands
just in the nick of time to prevent a
big blaze, as it stood near a
counter covered with papers and
which were about ready to become
ignited.

feel we'll"
This expression is heard constantly.
Perhaps you, reader, have heard it and
possibly you have made it yourself 1t
is a sad fact, but a fact none the less,
that while the grip is bad enough and
depressing enough when in its acute
form. it is often worse when it settles
in some part of the body and contin-
ues to destroy the health and ruin fhe
life. Doctor Lombard, in speaking on
this subject recently, said:
1T is well-known fact, admitted
by all doctors, that grip does settle ia
the body and bring distressing effects
long after it is apparently cured But
the doctors do not always say just
where it usually settles. 1t should be
clearly understood, then, that the
spots which grip commonly selects
are the kidneys and urinary organs
It is quite natural that it should do
SO for these are the very organs that
are overworked in trying to drive the
grip out of the system and, naturally,
being overworked, they are "eakened
and become an easy prey for disease. ="
when these delicate but most i'm
portant organs are attacked in their
weakened tOUOlLlOu, llISs SalLCI
throw the grip from the system with
out help-good help-strong help-re-
liable help. But, you ask, where can
such assistance be secured? The
question is not an easy one. Many
things will help the kidneys, urinary
and female organs temporarily but 1t
is not temporary help that they need.
They require something strong, some
thing that will seize the grip and cast
it out forever Ordinary me- nes
will not accomplish this. 1t requires
a scientific scovery-something out
of the ordinary that can be depended
upon absolutely. There is, 50 lar as
we know. SO far as the scientific world
knows. but one remedy that ills TINS
requirement. That remedy is War
ner's Safe Cure 1t was the most
potent factor in conquering the grip
in Europe, and it has been the only
remedy that has successfully removed
it's after-effects in America Rev.
DIR. Rankin, President of Howard Uni
versity, Washington, d. c., says con-
corning this:
81 know of persons who have been
permanently cured Of diseases OF the
kidneys and adjacent organs by the
use Of Warmers Safe Cure | know,
too, Of its being used in similar cases
by physicians Of the highest standing
I'll is great remedy | wish, in the
cause of humanity, to recommend.
ANY man or woman who is CONVEX
SAINT with the advance of science, or
the progress of the world, must know
that this great discovery stands on a
high plane of its own, far above all
ordinary medicines. remedies or
"cures." 1t accomplishes what no
other medicine ever has accomplished
or can accomplish. 1t cures people,
and. more than I'll else, it removes
the terrible after-effects which the
grip has in hundreds Of cases, loaded
upon the weakened frames of SO many
men and women.

At the last meeting of the Board Of
Education of Union school district a
petition was received from the Jr O.
U. A. NJ, asking the Board to annul
its former decision prohibiting the
use in schools of the district of text
books which are not prescribed by
the State school law. As previously
stated, in some Of the country schools
the teachers were using higher books
for the benefit Of the advanced pupils,
and, consequently, neglected the lower
pupils. This the Board stopped, and
those teachers who felt that they
were the sole source of authority, ap-
pealed to the American Mechanics.
The organization presented its petit
ton, but the Board explained the
matter to them and stated that the
teachers would have to obey the in
structions Of the Board.

Early yesterday morning notices
were posted up in the Wheeling steel
works, at Benwood, that the manage
ment desired a conference with the
tonnage men of the steel plant at the
company's Office at half-past two
o'clock Sunday afternoon. This an
nouncement was received with sur
prise by the men, as they regarded it
as an indication that the company
wanted to compromise the differences
existing in regard to the new scale
which the men have already been
asked to accept but have refused.
AS is remembered, the steel work
ers held a meeting at the Benwood
City Hall last Sunday. This was
largely attended and the men voted
unanimously to reject the proposed
scale. The committee appointed noti-
fed President Hubbard the following
day, but were told at the time, so they
reported, that President Hubbard
again insisted that the reduction would
have to go into effect at the time
set. Thus the matter has remained
since, both sides apparently deter
mined, until yesterday, when the no
tees were posted. Of course, the pros
pect of having the wage scale ques-
ton adjusted to the satisfaction of
both sides is generally agreeable to
all people, and it is hoped that this
result may be accomplished.
AS to the plate mill strike, there
has been no developments, and that
department is still idle. Also, no con-
ference has been held between the
strikers and management for the pur-
pose Of making settlement
