Admiral Dewey is coming to Wheel
ing.
That is sure and certain event. and
the old town will give him a rousing
reception.
Thousands of people win be here
from all the country within one hun
dred and fifty or two hundred miles,
ard the 22d of the coming February
will be great and memorable day.
In less than half an hour yesterday
morning Admiral Dewey and his wife
completely won the hearts of the
Wheeling delegation which called by
appointment at the residence of the
distinguished naval hero to present the
gift from the citizens OF this city, and
to invite the Admiral to attend the cere-
monies incident to the unwilling of the
Fort Henry memorial tablet on Feb
ruary I'D. The Admiral accepted the
invitation in the terSe phase 1 shall be
there" and at once directed his secre
tary, Lieut.. Crawford, to put Wheel
ing, February 22d,' in his list of en-
gagements.
This is the first invitation to be &C
copied by the Admiral in which the
date has been definitely fixed. A more
pleasant visit could hardly be imagined.
The Admiral was in his best mood and
he and his wife made the Wheeling peo-
pie feel perfectly at home. There was
nothing of the stiffness common to
such presentations. Judge G. L. Gran
mer was particularly happy in his brief
address to the Admiral. He spoke in
natural conversational tone, his words
were well chosen, and his manner cor
dial, sincere and earnest. The Admiral
listened with Close attention, interrupt
ing once to ask the name Of Lieut..
Doddridge, which he did not at first
catch.
Admiral Dewey'5 reply was equally
informal, but was to the point his
prompt acceptance of the invitation to
come to Wheeling evokirg the thanks
of the delegation. The speech making
over, the Admiral invited those pres
ent to view the various beautiful gifts
which had been presented to him since
his return from Manila, notably the
sword awarded him by Congress, and
the gold loving cup given him by New
York
Mrs. Dewey was exceedingly gracious.
Roth she and the Admiral greatly ad
mired the beautiful jardiniere which
had been brought from Wheeling as
present from the people of this city.
1t had been brought into the parlor,
its capacious bowl filled with yellow
chrysanthemums, forming a strong con-
trast to the rich dark blue of the pot
terry. Admiral Dewey was much sur
prised when told that the jardiniere was
a Wheeling product.
This is the first present we have re-
ceived in which l have been included
exclaimed Mrs. Dewey with an empha-
sis on the 81" She pronounced the
color of the vase to be genuine Sevres
biue-the real navy color. She was
much pleased to see that she was men
toned in the inscription. She also
made little speech to several of the
delegation, telling them how much the
present was appreciated.
The Wheeling present was on exhibit
ton at the Riggs House early in the
morning, where the committee was
quartered, and where it was greatly ad-
mired by many Washington people, but
when the Wheeling gentlemen entered
carriages for the drive to the residence

The promoters of the military tour
nament at the State Fair Grounds on
Thanks giving Day, have completed all
arrangements for the affair. The
grounds were leased and the street
railway company agreed to furnish
three-minute car service during the af-
ternoon to accommodate the immense
throng which is expected. The carry
ing out of the programme will not be
interfered with by rain, and the grand
stand will afford shelter to spectators
If the weather be unpropitiou5.
The stellar event on the programme
for the afternoon will be she mounted
sword combat between Capt Duncan
C. Ross and Sergeant o. Davis, late of
the United States cavalry. Capt Ross
is champion of the world. At Madison
Square Garden, New York, one year
ago, he defeated eighteen swordsmen,
representing as many civilized coun-
tries. After three days of flghting the
combat dwindled down to Ross and
Chevalier Greaco. the instructor of the
Royal School of Arms, Rome, Italy.
The Italians were not satisfied with
the defeat of their champion, alleging
it was due TO Ross superior horse
manship. Accordingly Ross and
Greaco met az the Lenox Lyceum, New
York, ten days later, and fought on
foot, Ross winning by II points to 8,
amidst the widest excitement ever wit
messed in that building.
Sergeant Davis and Ross met once
before, in San Francisco, and after two
hours combat the match was declared
a draw. Since then Sergeant Davis has
Nanquished every swordsman in Amer
lea, including Xavier Orlofsky, Chev.
PM, Prof. Pavise, Capt. Peter Nagel,
Corp. Nelson High, Sixth U. S. cavalry,
and has issued a challenge open to the
world, which has been accepted by
Ross. The combat is open to any liv-
ing swordsman, and the promoters of
the Thanksgiving match would be
pleased to have some of West Vir-
ginia's swordsmen enter, agreeing to
furnish horses, armor, etc.
This will be novel and intensely
thrilling feature Of the afternoon. IN
addition Capt. Ross will give an exhi-
bition of Indian tent pegging and
Workmanship.
Another feature will be the foot ball
game between the Linsly and Bellaire
High school elevens, to decide the inter-
city scholastic championship Bellaire
has been endeavoring for some time to
get this game, and will come up with a
big delegation of rooter5. 1t has been
suggested that parade precede the
game, and this may be arranged. With
the Linsly Cadets, the Cathedral High
School Cadets and the Bellaire High
school team and rooters in line very
creditable parade could be given. 1t
would also evidence the friendly spirit
in which athletics are conducted in the
schools of Wheeling and vicinity.
1t is likely that the Termination of
the scholastic foot ball championship
on Thanksgiving may establish a pre-
cedent for the future. It has been sug-
gested that the decisive game among
the school elevens be played hereafter
on Thanksgiving day.

THE HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS
EIGHT THOUSAND PEOPLE CAN
BE ACCOMMODATED.
Much Greater Numbers Have Been
Cared For During Big Celebrations
Multitude Can Be Fed.

Business at the hotels during the past
year has been better than for four
years previous. All of the first-class
hotels have been nearly filed most of
the time. The reason for this appar-
ent increase in business of that class
is not known, except that there seems
to have been more people travelling
during the past year than for several
years previous.
Salt Lake is we'll supplied with hotels
and lodging houses, and is able to ac-
commodate a large number of visitors.
There are over twenty-five hotels in
the city, of all classes, and these will
accommodate nearly 10000 people. The
first-class hotels have been canvassed,
and it was found that they would
accommodate over 1900 people; but
this Ices not include private es-
adjustments. Throughout the city
there are numberless private fam
lilies who take roomerS, and some give
board. Besides these there are also a
large number OF second-class establish
ments, at which one can put up for
almost any price.
Salt Lake has had several occasions
to show what it could do in case of an
emergency towards accommodating
visitors. During the visit of the
Christian Endeavorers. about 10, 900
people came to the city, and all found
accommodations. During the Jubilee
there was estimated to have been be-
tween so, 900 and 10000 people in the
city. Then was Salt Lake strained to
the utmost to hold them all and give
them proper accommodations. Every
hotel in the city was filled to it's ut
most capacity at the time. The pri-
vate establishments were also damned.
and hitherto unfinished houses and
rooms were furnished and rented to
the visitors. In this way everyone was
quartered, and there was room for still
more.
There are plenty of restaurants.
which are run independently of hotels.
and these, with the extra lunch and
dining-rooms put in for that special
occasion, served to feed the hungry
crowds. Ordinarily, however, Salt Lake
could probably accommodate 5000 or
TO- 900 people without any great amount
of preparations. But in case of neces-
sity, a much larger crowd could be
handled. as has been shown during the
Jubilee.

A ASSOCIATION.
Organization Of the Lawyers of the
State.

oldIS.
The State Bar association of Utah
was first organized in Salt Lake City
in 1894 by the lawyers of the city. The
association has for it's object the ele-
walton of the standard of professional
learning and integrity; to inspire the
greatest degree of respect for the eff
forts n influence of the bar in the
administration of Justice; and to cul-
tivate fraternal relations among its
members" This is the only organiza-
ton of its kind in the state, and has at
present a membership of about 116,
comprising attorneys from all over the
state.

BEEEEEPERS MADE MONEY
INDUSTRY THAT WAS PROFIT
ABLE IN THE STATE.
Success of Last Year Drew Many
Into the Business, With Slightly
Injurious Effects In Places.

On the whole the opening of 1899 finds
the bee industry in a Furnishing con-
dition. Many beekeepers from different
parts of the state report large yields
Of honey and much of it has been sold
in the local markets and has been
shipped to the adjoining states, and to
the east. Several beekeepers report a
crop of over a carload. But others
speak not so joyfully. Like many
other a~vocations in life the beekeeper
is subject to many vicissitudes in this
age of competition. If he makes a sue
cess for near tWo seasons, others, with
out judgment, thinking it is an easy
way to make money, S into the bust
ness n while they usually make a
failure they may unintentionally injure
others. Many cases in point might be
cited, but n will suffice. One bee
keeper last year averaged over 300
pounds of honey per colony, spring
count. This year others run so many
bees into the neighborhood, that his
surplus, with the best of management,
was less tina fifty pounds, while one
of the other parties, having nearly 200,
made a fiat failure. This is not in
tended to discourage anyone, but sim
ply TO show that a location must be
used if success is to result, and while
500 colonies in one location may col
lect more honey in the aggregate than
leo, yet the chances are that the 100
colonies will produce more surplus to
take off than the 500 would.
Titan honey is getting TO be we'll
known and sought for in the United
States. Utah honey at the Omaha ex-
position this season was classed per-
feet for color, clearness, ripeness and
general appearance. With proper man
agement and care of bees through the
winter there is nothing to prevent sue
cess in the future.

For several days past the stock of

anxious to have the salt palace, and
the stock will undoubtedly meet a
ready sale. 1t is intended to run the
salt palace for about ten years as a
summer amusement. Each year it will
be built up and enlarged, so it will,
from year to year, attain grander pro-
portions. That it will be a great sue

Utah salt palace is completed 1t will
be one of the most magnificent sights
ever seen.

William NJ. Ferry of Park City and
Mrs. Archie Bigelow OF Ogden. The
first question which confronted the
committee was the financial one. They
fully realized that each club was bur-
dened to the utmost, as was also each
individual member. However, it was
finally decided to tax each club 81,
which was promptly paid, and in some
cases a larger amount was subscribed.
From this, though only $24 was realized,
and the outlook for the travelling libra
ry was not promising. 1t was at this
point that George Foster Peabody, vice
president of the Rio Grande Western
railway, heard of the idea, and in order
to further it sent the committee a
check for 500. From that time on the
work "a comparatively easy. The first
library was made ready, n the COM
mittee still had half of their original
sum left. The work progressed, and
there are now three libraries in circu-
lation, the fourth ready to be sent out,
and the fifth we'll under way. This last
is a present from the Athaeneum of
Park City, the only club that has as
yet made sucn a donation.
The committee started with the idea
to make the rules governing the library
so simple as to burden no one. In Zach
locality a librarian is appointed on the
arrival VI llS library, WIN Is utlu re-
Sponsible for all books. Localities can
have the free use of the library for
three months. and under some circum-
stances the time may be extended to
six.
There are now $50 volumes in the
library, and all have been carefully
chosen, it having been the aim of the
committee to give the best or nothing.
1t was the original intention only to
give to the out-of-town clubs needed
help, but it has already been found
possible to crafty the public also.
Of the books in the library, besides
the standard works, the popular writ
ers of the day are represented. OF the
magazines only two are so far repre-
scented, Harper's Weekly n the
Youths Companion, and both have
proved more than acceptable. In the
selection children's books wero not
overlooked, and it has already been
