1T STRIKES A MATCH
Diamond r1afCh Trust Has a Dancer.
GUS Rival.

Washington, Sept. "a trust is
never safe. The moment it gets all
competitors bought Up and prepares to
sock it to the public, somebody creates
a new competitor which must be
bought OF fought. The Diamond
march trust is afflicted that way. 1t
is only few days since it made deal
with Edwin Gould, which enabled it
to control all the match factories and
all patent match making machinery in
the United States. But it has not had
CHARGE to realize anything on the
monopoly except Il few millions of
waiter injected into its capital.
Wallace \. DOVES, who was dhe
doughty colonel of the Seventy first
New York volunteers at Santiago. has
invented Il match machine and today
when the Diamond folks might other
wise be preparing TO put Up the price
of marches, the American Match COM

New Jersey. Its capital is placed at

Cornelius S. Crowley and w. H. Brear-
Iy, once Detroit newspaper publisher.
Downs machine is said to be an i'm
proyement OH the last one invented,
which is now owned by the Diamond
trust. If the trust does not get a new
machine too soon. the new concern
may cut quite a swath, as it intends to

eral droughty conditions throughout
the Territory, scattered showers oc
curing only in isolated places.
CROPS.
The weather conditions, during the
week, have not been generally favor
able for the growth of vegetation, on
account of prevailing droughty cOndi-
tions, low supply of water for irriga-
ton purposes, and excessively hot
weather A few sections, however,
have been visited by generous rain
falls, and there is a corresponding
advancement and improvement in the
condition of the growing crops. In the
southern section, in addition to the un
favorable circumstance of lack of rail-
fall and extremely hot weather. the
corn crop is suffering from the raw
ages of grasshCppers, and serious in

Mrs. H. N. Benedict.

Died, at her home at Gravel Bank
Wednesday morning --rs. H. N. Bene-
dict, aged go years months and
days, after few days illness of appen-
dlcrtis and it is thought that the end
was hastened by heart trouble.
Mrs. Benedict's maiden name was
Martha Brabham. She was born in
Morgan county on September %, 1888
and united with the M. e. church when
quite young and has remained all her
life consistent member of that body
In November 1858, she was united in
marriage to Mr.. H. N. Benedict, who
with six children, survive her. The
children are Frank Benedict, of Tun-
mel; Charles Sumner, of this city; Mrs
Anna Smith, of Pueblo, Col. and How
ard, Flora and Burdette, of Gravel
Bank. Another child, a daughter
Elvina died when quite young.
Mrs. Benedict has been in failing
health for some time, and had within
the past few years spent several
months in Colorado for the benefit of
her health, but was not much benefited
by the change of climate. She was
one of the respected ladies of the COM
munity in which the last years of her
life had been passed and a large cir
Gle of friends mourn her death and eX-
tend their sympathies to the bereaved
family.

WEDNESDAY. MARCH b 1899.
Off This Morning.

The CLERICAL force OF the Argand,
with the exception of one, expect to
leave this morning to report for duty
at Parkersburg.
A suite of three handsome office
rooms have been rented in Parkers-
burg, and the work of carrying on the
Argand's very extensive business will
be taken up there where it was left off
here.
Concerning the removal of the Ar
gand, the Sentinel has to say:
Ships that pass in the night" are
not to be compared with offices that
spring up in the between two days.
Monday evening the Argand Rein
'ery Company was doing business in
Marietta and Tuesday morning the
same company was transaCtlng its bus
mess in Parkersburg in offices fitted
up with the same furniture that was
used the day previous at Marietta.
This company is now located in the
Smith building on Market street in a
suite of offices on the second floor and
they will make this city their future
headquarters or as long as business
keeps up.
A Sentinel reporter called at their
offices this afternoon and found the
clerks with books and papers spread
on boxes and boards hard at work and
unconcerned as though they had lived
here for the past 25 years.
In a talk with Mr.. A. l.. Carpenter
assistant manager, he said that the
copmany had moved on account of the
better shipping facilities afforded here
and not because of any trouble in
Ohio.
The offices are in charge of H. J.
Guthrie, who will be here in a few
days. There are nine clerks employed
in the offices and warehouse will
also be open here and all shipments
made from this city.
Their coming is welcomed by this
city. 1t is also rumored that the
Buckeye Pipe Line Co., and the Ma
rietta branch of the Seep Purchasing
Agency will also locate in this city and
that all the interests of the Standard
Oil Co. located at Marietta will he re-
moved here.

The Black Hussar.

Though Manager Luchs was not par
ticularly fortunate as to his crowd last
night, yet he must take satisfaction in
the production of the bright opera,
which he gave his patrons.
The Boston Lyrics are a clever lot of
folks with plenty of talent both vocal
and funnical, and they put on and sang
the BLACK Hussar" with a dash and
finish that was altogether satisfactory.
This is the second appearance of the
Lyrics here this eason, they having ap-
peared here in Said Pasha;' and we
trust that last night may not long re-
main the last night of their appearance
in Marietta

intelligent people recognize that they are
threatened by this deadly disease, but take
no precautions against II.
Consumption approaches its victim step
by step. First there is a little "out of
sorts T" feeling the digestion isn't just right
the appetite falls off, the liver is inactive,
the assimilation of the life giving elements
of the food is imperfect, the blood gets i'm
pure and the body Is improperly nourished.
These conditions get worse and worse. The
heart through the arterial system is pump
ing thin, poisonous blood into every organ
of the body. The organs that are inherently
weakest break down first. Ordinarily the
lungs. AS the last straw that breaks the
camel's back comes a cold, however slight.
