A Thrilling Entertainment.

Perhaps the most thrilling entertain
ment on record was one witnessed in
the Romagna, which was as unexpected
as it was unauthorized. It was the last
day of the carnival, and the theater of
Formlipopoi was packed with crowd
of spectators awaiting the rise Of the
curtain. After long delay the curtain
went up, only to disclose stage occu-
pied by 100 brigands facing the audi
ence with pointed rifles.
The leader of the strange cast, II
Passatore, one of the most ruthless rob-
bers of any age, bowed profoundly to
the horror stricken audience and ex-
planned that the theater was surrounded
by his men, that the first man who at
tempted to escape would be shot. and
that he and his merry men would pro-
coed to collect any money and valuables
they had with them
The brigand and his men then de-
scended from the stage and stripped the
audience of their possessions to the val
ne of $4O0, 900. He then thanked them
all in a graceful speech and left the
theater. 1t is comforting to know that
he and 100 of his brigands were cap,
tured shortly after and that they paid a
heavy penalty for their evenings en-
tertainment. -Cinoinnati Enquirer.

Fi.hins on Hor.eback.

The most remarkable fishing in the
world is that practiced In catching the
sturgeon in the frozen rivers Of the
Ural mountains. Fishing on horseback
seems impossible, yet this is literally
true of the fishing for sturgeon.
The Russian Cossacks go fishing in
large bands. They mount their horses
and ride across the frozen river until
they are over the place where the cur
rent runs strongest. There they dis
mount and cut through the thick layer
of ice until they have formed little
pool of open water, extending across the
current almost from shore to shore.
A net, which is sunk to the bottom Of
the river, is stretched across the stream
at the open space, so that not fish
can swim past it. The horses are re-
mounted, and the Cossacks ride up the
river for distance of four or FIVE miles.
Here the band turns about and rides
down over the thick ice covered stream.
forming long line across it. They urge
their horses at full gallop.
The laundering hoofs of the horses
terrify the fish, and they charge madly
ahead of the approaching cavalcade.
Great swarms Of fish choke up the
stream in the mad effort to escape the
terrific noise that lie pursuing them. and
in this way they are driven down th<
stream to the net.

Perhaps Thieves and Fire-bugs.

The question which is agitating several
interested parties is whether the fire of
Monday morning which consumed the
Leonard & Truax building was of incen-
diary origin. The theory has been ad-
vanced that the building was cleared Of the
most valuable articles by thieves and then
set on fire to cover the retreat and there is
some evidence to support the theory. The
building burned at time when there was
no one about the railroad yards, the most
opportune time OF the week. Among the
articles stored were some kegs of nails,
barrels OF sugar and several baby car
riages. A careful search was made in the
ashes Tuesday but no vestige of the baby
carriages could be found. Parts of these
carriages were Of iron and could not have

Death OF Zephaniah Williams.

Zephaniah Williams, aged IS years, {
brother Of N. G.. Williams of this place
died Of heart disease Tuesday of last weel

funeral was held last week Friday. HI

The following is from the Providence
Evening journal Of May II: "Zephapial

liams. He attended the private schools Of
that period, but his education was com.
pleted in Worcester, Mass, where the
family moved in 1916. When quite a
young man he went to Providence where
he entered the employ Of Day & Sprague,
grain dealers.
In 1859 he entered the employ Of the
New York and Providence Steamship COM
pany, known as the Old Commercial Line,
which finally verged into the Neptune Line
of which Benjamin Buffum was president.
Mr.. Williams showed remarkable adapta-
bility for the business, and his rise from
clerkship to treasurership was rapid. When
the Neptune Line was changed to the
Providence and Stonington Steamship COM
pany, Mr.. Williams was made agent,
which position he filled up to the time of
his illness. His 40 years of service with
the company made him hosts OF friends,
and his name is almost familiar one in ship
ping circles"
Mr.. Williams left wife and three chill
dren. He was the first Of six brothers to
die.

HOW ABOUT THIS coNcERNe

What does Council propose to do
with the application for a franchise of
the National Electrical Company? In
view of the fact that it has granted the
Consumers Company franchise to be
consistent it cannot refuse to make a
similar grant to this other company,
which is entitled to fully as much con-
sideration.
OF course, Council should never have
granted private corporation a fran
chise at all, but since it has gone into
this business, Council cannot play ia
vorites." 1t cannot make fish of one
corporation and flesh of another. More
over, since one company is granted a
franchise, the admission TO the field of
another company will insure the people
the benefit of competition.
To secure this and also to guard
against any possible scheme of mere
speculation that may be behind the
application of the new company for a
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1899-05-13

the fair grounds, where fine diamond

Terry and Bradford, the two street
car men who were brought here from
| Benwood and lodged in Jail, seem to
be contented with their lot. Both men,
it seems, have been in strikes before,
and have had great deal of trouble.
Bradford has had very limited ex-
perience on electrict cars, and feels the
| uncomfortable position he is situated
in more than his motorman. Both
men will likely be kept in Jail until the
grand jury meets, as there has been no
| effort to have them taken out on bail.
