TWO WEST VIRGINIA POESTS.

"Briar Blossoms is the title of a
book of poems recently issued by Mr..
Howard Llewellyn Swisher, of Morgan
town, and dedicated to Mr.. John Wal
lace, of this city, "a good fellow and a
clever writer of verse" Both were
students at the State University. Mr..
Swisher is an aspirant for the Demo-
cratic nomination for State S%uperinten-
dent Of Free Schools. His poems pos
sess genuine merit, the are a valuable
contribution to the literary product Of
native West Virginians, and they will
be read with interest. The volume in
cludes two or three of the best things
from the versatile pen of Mr.. Wallace,
who is a Canadian by birth, but a West
Virginian in all else. His dialect and
Pastoral poems now number more than
one hundred, and his host of friends
cling TO the hope that the day is not
far distant when they will be collected
and preserved in book form.

ATLANTIC CITY ROMANCE
In Which a Wheeling Lady Is Said to Have
Been a Party.

The following is from the Philadelphia
Times Atlantic City correspondent:
A pretty romance has just developed.
During the Easter season. a young man.
William Livingston. of Harriburg, came to
the shore for his health. He was here for
two weeks. and just before he returned
home he met Miss May Paddock, of Wheel
ing, w. Va. Their acqua~intanceship was
nothing singular, but it was rather a coin
cidenee that three weeks ago they should
meet hero again. And then it did not re-
quire much time for their friendship to
grow into a deeper affection. Three days
later they went to a small town in the
central part Of the State and were mar
ried.
This union Of their hearts was kept a
profound secret until only a day or two
ago a maiden sunt-maiden aunts always
are prying cre~atures-learned Of the af-
fair. She was provoked to a feverish de-
gree and Immediately wired to the girls
parents. But love laughs at maiden aunts.
Now Mr.. and Mrs. Paddock are here and
they are not a BIT dispIeased at the part
their daughter has played in one Of the
early romances of the season.

The Fourth was uShered in at mid
night last night in much the usual way,
although there was a noticeable alb
sence of the old-time circus on Market
steet, between Twelfth and Fourteenth,
where the boys" used to gather a few
years ago AID send roman candles and
skyrockets skipping along the ground
10 the danger Of passing pedestrians
and the merriment of the participants.
Nevertheless there was a very consid-
cradle expenditure of gunpowder and
revolver cartridges all during the even
ing, and the patriotic enthusiasm Gull
minated as midnight struck in the ring
ing of bells, blowing of whistles and a
general discharge of all sorts OF noise
producers of alleged Chinese origin.
The fusillade quickly died away, how
ever, and by one O'Clock this morning
only the occasional popping of a cracker
or the discharge of a revolver could be
heard.
There is no public celebration sched-
uled for to-day, but there will be a
general programme of amusements at
both parks. At Wheeling Park the
Opera House band will discourse a pro-
gramme this afternoon and evening,
there will be dancing in the Casino and
bicycle racing, etc. At Mozart Park
Occur de Leon Division, U. R. K. of p,
will give an outing lasting all day and
evening, with a varying programme of
incidental amusements. At Pleasant
Valley Park there will be an interest
ing programme and all sorts of refresh
ments.
During the day there will be a num-
Der of public picnics. The North Street
NJ. e. Church will go to M~oundsyille by
trolley cars, where the day will be
spent. Mrs. F. E. Foster will entertain
her First Presbyterian Church Sunday
school class with a picnic, and there
will be a great many out of town gath
erings of a private nature. In the city
business will be suspended, it being a
legal holiday, and all public offices will
be closed.

DR.. S. L. Jepson, Health Officer, has
| completed his report for the quarter
ending June Both, showing a very graf
flying condition of the city, as regards
health and sanitation. The number OF
deaths during the quarter was 14l.
"The mortality for the corresponding
months of 1891" says the Health Off
Ger, was 166, and of 1898 it was 142,
| but are higher than for the past quar-
ter. The annual death rate for the
three months just ended was 1884 per
thousand on a basis of $4,000 popula-
Ition. The deaths may be classified
thus: Consumption, 10; diseases OF
| the lungs, 10; of digestive system, II;
of vascular system, 16; of nervous
! system, IL, of gentO-nomary system, 8;
infectious diseases, IS; malignant, 8;
accidental, 8; unclassiied, II.
81 embrace this opportunity to again
call public attention to the wide prev
| alence of smallpox. The latest official
reports show that over 1000 cases have
been reported in Ohio, 500 in Kentucky;
700 in Pennsylvania; 1900 in Virginia,
! and thousands more in States farther
from us. More than 70 towns in Ohio
have been infected. The disease has
already reached our State, the nearest
case being in Benwood. which is prac-
tically a part of Wheeling. We need
not hope to escape unless general vac
cination is practiced. Knowing from
our recent experience the fearful cost
of even a small epidemic of this dis
ease, it is surprising that a single fam
lily will for a day neglect this simple
and most %beneficient preventative mea-
sure.
"Vaccinate every unprotected person,
and the business of the city will go on
without interruption. Neglect ~vaccina-
ton, and the penalty will almost GER
tainly be an outbreak of smallpox, and
an end for a time of the prosperity OF
the city.
No arm should be vaccinated until
it has been thoroughly cleaned. / rec
ommend that only liquid (~glycerinated)
virus be used. Any cut or single
scratch may become infected, and a
bad sore result, A vaccinated arm
should be treated as carefully as any
injury. 1t is the neglect of ordinary
care and cleanliness that cause some
bad arms after vaccination. The pa
tients themselves are generally respon-
sible for such results"
Following is an abstract of the re-
mort of the Health Officer.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1899-07-04
FIREMAN INJURED.

James Killgore, one of the firemen
on the First ward reel in Bellaire,
while out practicing last evening with
the running team which will compete
at Moundsville to-day, fell and the reel
passed over his body. One rib was
broken and his hips were bruised. He
was removed to his home, where the
necessary surgical aid was rendered.
