The speech upon the natural history
OF the London cabmen, delivered by
the earl of Crewe, at the annual fes-
tlval dinner of the Cab Drivers Benev-
client association, contained a good
deal OF interest. II is certainly sur
prising to learn that there are in Lon
aon 1000 cabmen over 60 years of age,
and $50 who are over 10, to say moth
ing OF three who have turned so. This
is remarkable testimony, not only of
me advantages of life spent in the
open ar but to the salubrity of the
much abused climate of London.

The above is fair likeness OF Mile.
Campbell, the recognized champion fe-
male rough rider of the world, a young
lady who has created a sensation
everywhere by her fearless riding and
driving of the widest horses obtain
able. Mile. Campbell is one of the
bright stars with Jay Cooks famous
Hippodrome and Equine paradox,
which will be one OF the features at
the West Virginia Exposition and
State Fair this year. This excellent
organization will give exhibitions
every day of thrilling chariot racing,
Roman standing races, hurdle races,
standing jockey races, steeplechase, COW
boy races, etc., before and between the
races.
Everything in connection with the
fair is progressing nicely, and the en-
tries in every department are plling
UP in fine style, and all of them will
be larger this year and contain better
quality of exhibits rnan ever before.
The work Of the department superln-
tendents has already begun, and they
will be kept busy from now until the
last day of the fair. In the ladies',
children's and art department, over
which Miss Anna Reymann will pre-
side as usual, there will be an i'm
mense increase in the number of ex-
hibits, and the same may be said OF
Mrs. Geo. W. Lutz's department, that
of preserves, fruits and jellies. In
beth of these departments the ladies
are preparing to show off their ex-
hibits to better advantage than before
and a pretty display can be looked for.
Farm and garden products will be
exhibited in sufficient quantity to COM
pei Superintendent Charley Schmidt to
increase his quarters, and larger adj
dition than has ever before been neces-
sary is now contemplated. The educa-
tional department, under the super
vision of Superintendent w. G. Ander-
son, will be very interesting and the in
crease of premiums offered for various
work has caused quite stir in the
schools. and the scholars Of each school
are endeavoring to have their depart
ment the most attractive. Another
new feature and one which will prove
an attraction to many, is the exhibit to
be made by the amateur photographers
of this vicinity. Already Mr.. R. M.
Archer has been overun with applica-
tions for entry blanks, and the proba-
bilities are that his department will be
ore of the largest in the exhibition hall.
Owing to the fact that the Board OF
Education has decided to make Friday
the public school day, the Association
has changed Children's Day from
Tuesday to Friday, and on that day all
children under twelve years of age, &C
companied by their parents or guar
dams, will be admitted free. The

CAUGHT AT LAST.


James r. Bennett arrested In This City
Yesterday by Lieut.. Ingram.
Yesterday James F. Bennett, of this
city. engaged on construction work for
the Bell Telephone Company, and lat
terly located at Parkersburg, was ar
rested on Main street by Lieutenant
Ingram and was locked up. When ac-
costed by the officer, who said: Hello,
Bennett, the latter denied that he was
the man waned, and asked the officer
what he meant. "Oh, you're the right
man." said Ingram, although / think
you're a little heavier than when /
saw you last" You're kiddin' me"
said Bonnett. Come along" said In
gram, aud the two went to the City
Hall, where the prisoner was placed
in cell.
The warrant on which Bennett was
arrested was issued at Parkersburg
August 10th, by Justice ]. c. brennan,
and charges the prisoner with stealing
$lS2.l3 in money and copper wire val
ued at $1,000, the property of the Bell
Telephone Company. The information
is made by ]. C. Decker. Bonnet was
taken to Parkersburg last evening, and
will probably be arraigned there to-
day.
There have been many rumors in
circulation as to Bennett and his
whereabouts, but the fact is he has
been in Wheeling about all the present
week. He claims to have gotten into
trouble through drink, and to have
simply wandered off, but this does not
explain the taking CT the money and
wire.
