A. R., of Wheeling. together with the
two womans Relief Corps camps, and
the Sons Of Veterans, are arranging to
have n tri-state reunion, or rather a
series of reunions, on Saturday,
August 5, and hopes are entertained
that the affair may bring large NUM-
Der Of veterans to the city from West
Virginia, western Pennsylvania and
eastern Ohio.
The committees in charge Of the
AFFAIR tender a cordial invitation to all
regimental organizations In the trl-
state radius to fix Wheeling, August s,
as the place and time Of their reunion
for 1889, and the assurance is extended
that wheeling will give the boys a
hearty welcome and generous entertain
ment. Presidents or secretaries Of regi-
mental organizations who are about to
fix the time and place for their organi-
cations reunions, are requested to call
their reunions for Wheeling at the time
stated, and notify Mr.. H ]. Feiber of
Wheeling, who will see that the proper
arrangements are made for the recep-
ton and entertainment of each organl-
cation coming.
1t is likely that the reunion will be
held at Wheeling Park, than which
there is no more beautiful spot in the
Ohio Valley. Steps will be taken at
once to secure reduced railroad rates
from points in the tri.state radius.

The wheeling police. have success
fully consummated very neat eiioFt
to hunt down the person who entered
the home OF Mrs. Sydney Laughlln. at
Echo Point, last Friday, and got away
with diamond rings valued at $500. The
work Of Chief clemans and Lieutenant
dlchaels, who were on the case show
ed the high efficiency of the Wheeling
police department, and both officers are
to be commended for their skin In
placing behind the bars one Of the
most dangerous sneak thieves in the
country.
clemans and Michaels have been
quietly working up their case since the
robbery was reported TO them Friday
night. Early yesterday morning they
had secured evidence suficIent to war
rant the arrest of the man under sus-
plcIon.
The suspect is Wesley Jackson, a
young colored man, whose features and
brick.red complexion suggest the In
dian rather than the negro. He has
been in wheeling several weeks, and
made his headquarters in the Second
ward. with other colored people he
boarded at a house on Eoh street.
above Tenth,
To this place the chief of police and
his detective lieutenant wendell their
way shortly before o'clock yesterday
morning. They were admitted to the
place, and proceeded to a room on the
upper floor, where Jackson and two
other colored men were sleeping. Their
Arst act was to secure >Jackson's
clothes. and this was a timely precau-
tion, as a revolver was found In the
mans pocket. Then Jackson was ava
kened, and placed under arrest. He
showed fight at first, but soon saw that
resistance was useless, and willingly
accompanied the officers to the city
building, and later to the county jail.
where he was committed pending q
hearing, which may be held by Justice
Rogers to-day.
The police decline to enter into any
particulars regarding the evidence they
have against Jackson, but they express
confidence in their ability to convict
their man. Chief Clemnns said last
night that he had five witnesses who
would swear to having seen the dla-
monds in Jackson's possession. When
captured Jackson did not have the dla-
monds, and 1t is believed he has either
pawned them or placed them in the
hands of a friend. That they Will be
recovered ultimately there is little
doubt.
jackson is stylIsh-looklng fellow
and follows cycling as fad. He is
said to be a noted burglar, who has
figured in many "jobs." Only a month
or six weeks ago he was released from
the Western Pennsylvania penItentIary
at Allegheny. He has more or less
complete burglars outfit, including
matches that are nolseiess when igntt-
ed. After his capture he refused to
talk, and he is evidently not Of the
kind that confesses when caught.
