Melville's first appearance in Wheeling
in a stellar role. Those who have seen
her only as isis" the awkward country
girl, were surprised at the ability which
she displayed in mor serious work in
the last act. Her twisting and stam-
mering and ingenious, sayings, tickled
the disabilities of the audience, and the
house was in an uproar while she was
on the stage; and those who laughed
loudest shed tears in the strong emo
tional scene at the last act. She - d tai
ented and versatile actress, and is only
now being accorded the position upon
the stage which has been hers of right
for many years. She is surrounded by
a company of unusual strength. The
t~erpsichorean and vocal specialties were
many, and were novel and delightful.

Diamond Bros big aggregation Of
minstrel and vaudeville talent, opened
at the Grand Opera House last night
20 a large and appreciatiVe audience.
Notwithstanding it was but the fifth
performance, everything passed off
smoothly, and the audience encored
many of the vocal numbers and the
specialities. A bunch of witty sayings
and a very pleasing assortment of solos
are introduced in the old time black
first part. 1t is followed by an olio Of
clever vaudeville acts. Frank Edwards
does a laughable monologue turn; the
Sextette sing sweetly; Decker ard
Rasch appear in a very funny knock
about comedy sketch; the Knox Bros.
entertain in a refined musical act; the
Diamond Bros. dance themselves into
popular favor; and a strong finish is
made in the novel %acrobatic character
speciality by the Grant Brothers. The
Diamond Bros. Ministries give a very
clean and satisfactory performance, de-
serving the patronage of lovers of old
time minstrelysy. The very creditable
MONDAY street parade attracted con-
siderable attention.

Robbery and Arson.

Thursday morning about , clock George Morgan and Henry Cooper dis covered smoke issuing from the Flag staff Cash Store and immediately gave the alarm. A line of hose was laying along Vail's east sidewalk and attached to the hydranr. This was promptly made use of and the fire was put out before the arrival of any Of the hose companies.
 An examination of the premises proved that the store was robbed and then set on fire. An entrance was made to the basement by removing the grating and then breaking window. Once in the cellar the store was easily entered. The robbers helped them selves to clothing, iewelry and such articles as they wanted and when sat istied with plundering they set q lighted lamp among lot of clothing piled on table in the rear of the store aud started fire near the center.
 The discovery of the fire was timely and the loss is comparatively small. The robbers are supposed to have got away with several hundred dollars worth of goods.
 The loss by fire and water is fully covered by insurance.

Value of Water Power

Notwithstanding the advent of steam
as practical source of power in the
last century and the enormous develop
ment that has taken place in its use,
water power, under favorable condi-
lions, continues to be the best and
cheapest obtainable, and, with the ex-
ception of wind, it is the only one in
nature ready made. If it were suggested
as practicable method of raising wa
ter to evaporate it first and condense it
at higher level afterward, 1 am afraid
the sanity of the engineer responsible
for the suggestion would be questioned,
and yet on the great scale of nature
this crude though direct method has
given us perennial supply of power
greater beyond measure than that con-
tanned in all the coal in the world.

Rare Eye Disease.

A peculiar and fatal disease of the
eye has been discovered in a 3-year-old
child in Muncie, Ind, the disease being
known to the medical fraternity as
glioma of the retina. The case is so rare
that an eminent French authority
quoted in the medical books observed
but four cases of the disease in so. 900
people whose defective eyes he had ex-
amined. 1t is disease in which the
optic nerve becomes affected. A tuner
GUS formation appears in a short time
The disease, if left alone. runs its
course in from 10 to 10 months, the
victim dying at the end of that time
The progress of the disease is staid
sometimes by the patient undergoing a
difficult surgical operation, in which
the brain is laid bare, the eye removed
and a portion of the optic nerve de-
stroyed. The victim is named Freddie
Yoakum, and he is but 8 years old.
The chances of a victim recovering from
the surgical operation or even leaving
the operating table alive are regarded
as being about even. The disease al
ways appears in children below years
old.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Two Large Gas ENGINES.

Gas and oil engine development has
not been encouragingly rapid. except
where relative small powers are con-
cerned. and the large engine of 100
horsepower and more has been slow
indeed in convincing the power user
that it is the kind of engine which may
reasonably be expected to work econom-
ically. 1t is worth nothing, therefore,
that plant of eight large gas engines,
four of ESQ horsepower and four of 21O
horsepower each, has been reported as
about to be installed at the Lot's road
pumping station of the London county
council, and will thus afford the latest
evidence of the important work which
engines of this class may be expected
to successfully perform. The plant will
proba bly, be the largest one of the kind
in existence. Magazine.

NOVEL ICEHOUSE.
Said to Produce Ice at Five Cents
Ton.

Said to Produce Ice at Five Cents .
Ton.
An interesting and novel process of
producing pure ice by natural methods,
says the Boston Herald. has been put
In operation in Claremont, N. H., by a
resident. A year ago he had building
specially constructed for his use. The
experiment house is unique. It has no
windows, but is four square, with a
door in each side. The owner says he
can make ice faster in house with
doors at the corners than in the mid
die or the sides; still this one does
the business. Inside the house is what
might be termed another house-a crate
water tight and built so as to avoid
rigidity of angles and to allow OF the
expansion of the water in freezing. The
expansion is one-twelfth, so the space
to be left between the sides of the crate
end of the house proper is easily deter
mined. In the early days of experiments
more than one house was smashed by
the bullying propensities of freezing
water
AT one end of the house is a stand
pipe from the main of the Claremont
waterworks. The water is spring water,
but an application is made of electricity
to still further purify it as it stands in
tanks after being drawn from the source
of supply. 1t rushes first through d
rubber tube to a tank 60 feet from the
main and on the second floor of the
building. Another tube, 60 feet long,
takes it to a second tank. A third lets
it run to the floor of the crate. As it
runs out it moves slowly and more
slowly, like clear, cold, crystalline mo-
lasses-stil more slowly-and stops
frozen. The ice builds upon itself in
the crate-forming anchor ice, not
top finland the end is crate of pure,
solid ice, of such color no one ever
saw who has been limited TO ice cut
from ordinary ponds and rivers.
The tubes are arranged with respect
to the openings in the building, so as
to get the maximum amount of cold
wind blowing on them. One days ex-
pertinent illustrates the process of freez-
ing. The water in the standpipe was at
45 degrees. 1t was Is minutes passing
through the tubes and it's temperature
as it issued upon the floor of the crate
was 80 degrees, or two degrees below
freezing, and total reduction of 8 de-
grees. The out of door temperature was
at about freezing.
If any one visits the experiment
house today, the owner will show him
a crate full of ice-one solid block of
about 800 tons weight The erection
of houses of the type required is easily
accomplished anywhere and the ice can
be manufactured lat cost Of about
cents a ton.

cents, the same shield printed il
orange color on purple lilac back
ground: fifteen cents, shield printed II
crimson on deep pear ground: twenty
cents, the same shield in PruSsiap

difference in the stamps lies simply in
the colors of the background and the
shields. 7:T -

of the Falls of Juanacaltsn, in the vi
cinity of Guadalsjara, surrounded by a
light violet frame.

volcano of Popocapetl, prin ted in black

Those of five dollars show the cathe-
dral of Mexico in black ink with q

also Of au excellent quality. Those of
two cents, single, have the national
shield raised on a red back ground.
Same colors are used in the two-cept
postal cards, with answer paid. Those
of five cents, both single and answer
paid, represent the national emblem
raised on Prussian blue back ground.
The one cent postal cards, both single
and with answer paid, show the ma
tionsl shield in relief upon light
green bottom. Those of two cents,
both single and answer paid. the same,
al shield on red ground. The three
paid, have the national shield raised up
on q sienna color background.
There are also stamped envelopes, OF

Prussian blue ground is printed on the
second. The last shows the same
emblem on purple lilac ground.

are worth one and two cents, the
shield being printed in the first on
light green back ground land the same
shield on red ground for the second.
There was q new issue of revenue
stamps circulated about the same time,
which will be described in another
article.
