Bessie Welty and Eta Weitzell, OF

seventy-five. Besides the above nam
ed guests there were present from a
distance: Miss Collins, of Philadel-
phia; Miss Nugent, of Braddock; Miss
Brady, of Pittsburg, and Mr.. Thomas
A. Sharbaugh. of Carrolltown. The
programme of entertainment, which
continued from $3.50 until 1 o'clock,
with refreshments at -, was very
elaborate and artistically carried out,
making the reception one of the most
successful of the social functions in
the city this year.

wedding of Mr.. Charles Schnepf, son
of Mr. Christian Schnepf. the well

LOST HIS KEYS.

An absent-minded member Of the
Register editorial force has mislaid a
bunch of keys. They are just ordinary
miscellaneous keys, gathered in a
long career of lock-buying. but they
will be hard TO replace. and harder
still to do without The thoughtless
member believes he left them at the
postoffice. but the people there say no,
and that cuts OF the only clue.

DENIED POINT BLANK.

The story printed in the Intelligencer,
yesterday morning, to the effect that
some unknown and intangible syndi-
cate was figuring for the Belmont and
Schmulbach breweries, is denied point
blank by the parties interested in these
enterprises. When seen yesterday Mr..
Schmulbach said there was no shadow
of truth in the statement. SO far as he
was concerned, and denounced the re-
port. Stockholders in the Belmont
Company also denied the report, and
could not imagine what foundation
there was for it, unless it was similar

AND WILL PUT IN A HOT DAY.
BUSINESS MEN SHOULD CON-
SUIT THEIR OWN INTERESTS
IN THIS IMPORTANT MATTER.
The Executive Committee having in
charge the arrangements for Mer-
chants Day was to have met last even
ing, but because of various considera-
tons not necessary to enumerate the
session was postponed until this morn
ing at half past nine O'Clock, at the
rooms of the Chamber of Commerce.
1t is particularly desired that there
shall be a full representation of the
membership, as there are a number of
important matters to be discussed.
The Finance Committee got to work
yesterday, and the days work ended
with a total of about $3.50 in fairly
large subscriptions, with a good deal
more in sight. To-day the Committee
proposes to put in all the time during
business hours in soliciting subscrip-
lions, and it is hoped that by tonight
the total above announced will at least
have been doubled. A Register re-
porter talked with two members of
this committee yesterday, and while
they were in a measure pleased with
the results so far achieved, there was
an undercurrent of dissatisfaction be-
cause gentlemen who had been count
ed upon for a modest subscription
were inclined to hold off, on the sur
mise and belief that the State Fair
would get along anyhow and bring
lot of people to the city, even if there
was no extra inducement offered to
visitors. This idea is all mistake.
1t is true that the State Fair will bring
thousands of people to Wheeling, as it
does every year, but the idea of Mer
chants Day is to largely increase the
number, making the crowd bigger
than ever before, and at the same time
to extend merited courtesies to out-of-
town patrons of our business men.
The State Fair will be a success, never
fear, and the attendance will be at
least as large as in other years. But
this is not enough. The plan is to
have more people in Wheeling this
year than ever before, thereby laying
the foundation for still a bigger crowd
next year, and so on. It will not do
to rest content on the laurels won in
years gone past. To stand still is to
retrograde. In this age of the world
progress counts for everything, while
to remain stationary counts for moth
will follow A little cash all around
will work wonders, and there should
be no trouble or difficulty in providing
at least two thousand dollars for the
purpose. Nearly one half of this
sum has already been subscribed, and
the remained ought to be made up by
to-day or tomorrow, at the farthest.
1t will not do to let this enterprise
fail for the damage to the reputation
of the city would amount to ten times
the cost, at low estimate. The thing
to do is to push it through, and a few
more contributions will solve the pro-
blem. When the members of the FL
nance Committee call on you to-day or
tomorrow, don't hang back because
you can "get along anyhow" but help
the community as well as yourself by
donation to a public enterprise. The
reward will come in due course of
time

HEALTH or THE STATE.
Features of the Quarterly Report of th
 Secretary,

Secretary.
 Following is a portion of the quarter ly report made by Dr. c. A. Lindsley at the meeting of the state board of health held at the secretarys office in this city last Saturday:
 The health of the state is not marked ly different from the average of past years in the two months of July and August.
 The death rate for the last two years, 1S97-S, was less than for any of the twenty-five previous years; and the an- nual death rate for the nine months of the present year indicates low mor- tality for the full year,
 The most significant facts bearing up- on the successful sanitary administra- ton in the state are the following: First, the continued persistence of in fectious diseases in so many towns in the state, and, second, the decided con- trol which the local health officers have maintained over them.
 Scarlet fever was reported in July in twenty-eight different towns and in tlf teen instances only one case. In Au- gust it was reported in twenty-six towns, and only one case in sixteen of them. When it is considered how very contagious scarlet fever is this restric- tion of an outbreak to single case so is a remarkable demonstra- tion of the efficacy of isolation and dis and the vigilance of town
