UNIONTOWN TO WHEELING.
The Route of The New Railroad as
Laid Out by The Projectors.

WASHINGTON, Pa, December "a
Mr.. Protzman, representing the mon
eyed men back of the projected rail-
road from Uniontown by way of Way
nesburg to Wheeling, was in Washing
ton last evening, and though protest
ing that he would have much fuller
details in week or two, gave out the
following interesting information:
The road has been laid out from
Uniontown to the mouth of Browns
run. where it will cross the Mononga-
hela. Thence it will run south Of Car
michaels along Muddy creek, striking
Ten Mile creek at Morrisville, and
thence by Rogersville, Bristoria, Ryer-
sons Station and Crows Mills to
Wheeling. People along the route
will be expected to take $3.50, 900
worth of stock. and farmers will be
allowed to put 10 their coal as so
much cash. The company is already
organized and it is estimated that the
cost of construction and equipment
will reach 1850, 900. Already the
Bailey Brothers, of Carmichaels, have
subscribed $25, 900. Senator Walton,

The Handful Nuisance.

The city of Chicago has begun a
crusade against the indiscriminate dis
tributlon of hand bills. Like the
poster evil, it is becoming quite nui-
sance, and the individual has but
little means OF protecting himself
against the imposition. The yards,
the cutters, the streets, and even the
air is full Of trade hand bills which
nobody reads. 1t is safe to say that
not one hand bill in every ten is ever
picked up except to destroy them.
The other nine are scattered about to
make yards look unsightly, to impede
the drainage in the cutters and to
brighten horses on the streets. The
modern newspaper has taken the place
of the handful just as it has super
seeded the bulletin board The news
paper is looked to as the proper medium
through which advertisers should
reach the people, aud tiloy DAY ii.oio
attention to any other. Inc nand-
bill is considered cheap method of
advertising cheap ware and the public
spurns the cheap John in any business.
John Wanamaker, who is the greatest
advertiser of the times, and who has
tried every conceivable method Of
reaching the public, says, that the
newspapers afford the best and only
satisfactory method of advertising.
