ON THE OHIO SIDE.

The situation over on the Ohio side
remains unchanged as far as the run
ming of the cars are concerned. They
are running on fairly good time. but
hauling very few passengers on the
Bridgeport end. At Martins Ferry no
passengers are hauled at all.
There were no deputies on either the
Martins Ferry or Bridgeport cars, all
of which have small placard on either
end with ~. S. MALI on them. The
mails are being carried to the post
offices of both towns now on the cars,

THE BENWOoD SERVICE.

At Benwood yesterday the cars were
again run on schedule time from early
in the morning until 1926 o'clock at
night. No distractions were placed
upon the track at any point and every
thing remained quiet during the day.
About 4:40 o'clock in the afternoon
one of the cars, north bound, while
proceeding across the B. & o. railroad
tracks at Schad's place, became derail-
ed on account of a bad rail. Shortly
after the accident another car, south
bound, on meeting the derailed car, re-
turned to the barn and brought a large
force of deputy United States marshals
and the new men to the crossing. The
men were at once put to work and
nearly an hours time was required to
replace the car upon the rails, owing
to the number of tracks at this point.
While the work was being pushed for
ward, mail train No. 104, and freight
train, north-bound, and mail train No.
4 and two freight trains, south-bound,
came along at various times and con-
sequently were delayed for about a
half hour.
A crowd of people, numbering nearly
a thousand, according to an estimate,
soon gathered in the near vicinity OF
the crossing to watch the proceedings
and the deputies on guard paid close at
tention to everything that was going
on. Quite a number of the Riverside
mill employees, who had just finished
their days work, were among the spec
tators. While every one appeared to
be pleased with the performance, yet
no remarks were made and there was
no occasion for an arrest.
One of the spectators, in speaking OF
the incident, wittily remarked: 1.-THE
strangest thing of the whole affair was
that not fellow in the crowd offered
to assist the boys in putting the car
back onto the track"

TWO FIRES YESTERDAY,
One in Bridgeport and One on the Soutf
Side,

One in Bridgeport and One on the South
Side.
Last evening about 7 o'clock the gro
Gerry store of Squire S. A. Clemens, in
the West End of Bridgeport, burned to
the ground. The fire resulted from the
igniting of a gasoline oil barrel from
which Squire Clemens was draining
oil. Within few seconds after" the
barrel was on fire, the entire building
was in flames. Nothing was saved.
The squire's dockets and fifty dollars
in money were lost among other things.
The Bridgeport fire department, assist
great work in saving the adjoining
buildings, Mr.. Seneca Lyle succeeded
in bursting the oil barrels in order to
prevent an explosion, and in doing so
ne was burned about the hands. The
store and contents were insured for
5000. The loss on the goods alone will
amount to over $500. Mr.. Clemens
stated last evening that he felt CRATE
full to all who had kindly lent their as
sistance.
About twenty minutes of four O'Clock
yesterday afternoon still alarm call
ed the Niagara to No. 1880 Water
street, where the roof of double brick
house belonging TO Mrs. Brooks, was in
blaze, the fire being presumed to have
been started by sparks from B. & o.
locomotive. The Niagara firemen put
their new chemical apparatus to work,
and it did good service, the blaze being
extinguished without the use of the
big hose. Quite large hole was burn
cd in the roof, but the damage is COM
paratively small.

a Rad FALL.

Herman Mule, who resides at No.
1884 McColloch street, was the victim
of quite a painful accident, occurring
at the foot of the river bank, near
Bloch Bros tobacco works last
evening. Mr.. Mule was stand
ing on the top of a boathouse
when he lost his balance and fell to the
ground. As a result he had both hips
badly bruised. Shortly after the ae-

Yesterday was an entirely peaceful
day in strike circles.
The Company ran an increased num-
Der of cars, and had no trouble in any
quarter-also, no patronage.
1t is announced that, commencing
with to-day, the cars will be run upon
the full schedule, and that so far as
operations are concerned, the Company
will be upon the same footing as before
tie strike. The public is not riding,
however, there are no indications OF
settlement, and the end of the trou-
BILE, which still hurts business in al
most every branch of trade, is not in
sight
The labor unions and strikers are
making great preparations for the big
mass meeting to be held at the Opera
House, Tuesday evening. Assurances
are given that w. ID. Mahon, of De-
troit, President of the international or
ganization of street car employees, and
also William Carney, of Pittsburg, Vice
President of the Amalgamated Asso-
station of Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers, will be present. Other
speakers of note from out of
town are also expected, and their
names will be announced in day or
two. 1t was stated last evening that
the street car employees now on strike
would march to the Opera House in a
body, headed by band, and the same
plan may be followed by other labor
organizations. No one of those in
charge of the meeting expects that the
building will hold half the people who
desire to get in, and arrangements may
be made for an overflow open air
meeting.
To-morrow's session of the Trades
and Labor Assembly is expected to be
a very important one, and largely at
tended. An invitation has been ex-
tended to the Belmont Central Trades
and Labor Union to be present in a
body, and it will doubtless be accepted.
Every local labor leader of prominence
in this city and vicinity is expected to
he on hand, and the strike will be the
main subject for discussion.
Yesterday the members of the street
car organization issued the following
card of thanks
THANKS TO OUR FRIENDS.
Resolved, By Local Division No. JOB,
Employees of the Wheeling Railway Co.,
That we do appreciate the sympathy thus
far shown us by EVERYBODY during our
strike, for the almost unanimous refusal
to ride on the cars; and we have conf
dence in all our friends to warrant us in
stating that they will continue to refuse
to ride until this company considers our
fair and just demand. Again we thus pub
licly thank one and all. By order of Local
Division No. 1903, A. A. S. R. E. of A.
ct l.. PADDEN, President
GEO R. KELLY, Rec. Sec"
"By order of the official board of the 0.

dorsed and concurred in, and a like eX-
preston is conveyed to the public for the
great public sentiment in this question of
business.

AN ORIENTAL PEACH.
As Singer of Mongolian Tnny This Nassal Was n Winner in
 a Walk.

Her majesty, Tsi An, empress of China, sat in her palace in the purple Forbidden City, with her brow resting on her thumb and her index finger pushed up through her fringe. Housing herself presently from her profound absorption she beckoned to a wal nut-colored person plastered up against the yellow silk tapestry.
 "Un-H -Hung,' she said, "where is the em- peror?"
 Dash your ignominious slave into mil lion atoms, oh, ameythyst flower of the Clestial kingdom" he responded, lying flat on his chest before her, but your slave wotteth not"
 "Wot?"
 'No, most purple of our yellow lilies of the g-tse-Kiang, do not wot where the emperor IS"
 And this to mel"
 Most beauteous descendant of all the gods. your vile slave speaks but the truth, though he lies here on his very stomach. He wotteth not where the emperor is"
 Slave, dog, canine wretch, scum of the Yellow river did not tell you what to do?' Truly, most divine of all the gentle, pur- pie peoples of Peking, and your sieve did it to the queens taste, so to speak"
 Aha, then he IS deadY
 As mackerel, o, yellow anemone of the crystal sea-"
 Why Hest thou, knowing that he is
 How the dickens, most marvellous of mandarin matrons, do know where he is I'm no fortune teller"
 "Oho, aha" smiled her majesty, again re- lapslng into thought, "bring on another."- Cincinnati Enquirer

Finland Maiden Who Had One Qualification for the Posi-

The servant girl question is even more difficult in small western cities than 1t is in New York. There no lady ventures to ask a reference, but contents herself with verbal examination of her appli. cants capabilities.
 There was an avalanche of Swedes and Finlanders in a Pacific slope town last winter, and one wild haired damsel pre- scented herself as a candidate for S20-a. month position as cook. The prospective mistress thus interrogated her:
 Gan you make good bread?"
 "Brod? Nav"
 Can you make soup"
 Soup? Nav"
 "Do you understand roasting meats?" Meat? Nav"
 Gan you broil?'

 .'Gan you clean brasses?'

Waiter in q Dilemma.

It was in one of the large downtown res taurants that the short little woman and her tall husband went to dinner one night.
 Will you have oysters?" asked the man, glancing over the bill of fare.
 Yes" said the short little woman, as she tried in vain to touch her toes to the floor. And, John, I want hassock D
 John nodded and, as he handed his order to the waiter he said: Yes, and bring a hassock for the lady"
 "One hassock?" asked the waiter, with what John thought more than ordinary in terest, as he nodded in the affirmative. Still the waiter did not go, but brushed the table cloth with towel and rearranged the ar tieles on it several times, while his face got very red. Then he came around to Johns side and, speaking sotto voce, said: Say, mister, l haven't been here long. and I'm not on to all these things. Will the lady have the hassock boiled or fried "-Chicago Chronicle
