A crowd of the rowdies from East
Liverpool, O., who wen out Sunday
on an excursion from that place, on
the barge Annie P. Roberts, towed by
the r. L. Aubrey, threw over 100
chairs into the river at points between
East Liverpool and Steubenville. There
was, however, no great disorder on the
boat. Some of the down-river packet
men say that a good many men in the
crowd were under the influence of
liquor. Several men in skiffs were en-
gagged in picking up the chairs. There
was a large crowd on board, the pass
engers being made up principally of
men who work in the potteries. The
men who were under the influence Of
liquor took it on board with them.

COUNTY COMMITTEE.

Important Action i'm Regard to Bal
lots-Order in Which Names of
Candidates for Assessors and Del
egates to Conventions Shall APP
pear ON the Ballots.
A very important resolution was
passed by the Ohio County Democratic
Executive Committee at its meeti.g
last night. 1t was in the nature of an
order to judges of the primaries to be
held next Saturday, 10 recognize only
the official ballots. This order is
made to prevent annoyance, confusion
and trouble. OF course there is no OBJ
lection to candidates getting ballots
of their own for the purpose OF distri-
button among their friends, but they
must be official; that is, have all the
names of all candidates and in their
proper order.
At the meeting last night it was de-
cided that the names of candidates for
the assessorships should be placed on
the ticket in the order they were drawn
by lot; the first name to be placed first
on the ticket and so on. The nominal
tions for delegates to the several con-
ventions will be placed on the ticket
in the order in which they were sug-
gested at the meetings last Saturday.
The names for the assessorships will
appear in the following order: city
district, Joseph Baker, j. Wilson
White. Country district, n. z. Engle.
John W. Nicholl, NJ. A. Madden. The
committee will meet again next Friday
evening at 1880 o'clock.

In the State Normal School oratorieal
contest at Clarksburg. April 9th. for
the $25 offered for the best Grafton on
the subject of Woman Suffrage" by
the West Virginia Woman Suffrage
Association, and for the Wilkinson
prize, citizens OF Fairmont to the num-
Der OF 100, took the cars for Clarks-
burg TO attend It. The contest was
listened TO by very large and enthu-
siastic crowd. Great was the disap-
pointment of the Fairmont contingent
at a Fairmont Normal student not
tan~g one of the prizes. Last year
a Fairmont young man of the Fair

The officers of the w. Va. w. S. A.
received a letter from the principal OF
the West Liberty Normal School, ]. NJ.
Skinner, stating that they did him an
injustice in publishing that he OBJ
jeeted to the students of his school
taking part in the contest for the $25
prize they offered. He said that he
had on the contrary done al he could
to persuade the students of that school
to take part with no success. The
w. Va. w. S. A. regrets very much
doing Mr.. Skinner this injustice, and
their only defense is that his few brief
words OF reply to their invitation to
the West Liberty school to take part
with the other Normal schools of the
State in the contest being: Our stu
dents do not manifese any interest in
the 'Woman's Suffrage prize" led
them to believe what they published
concerning it.

IA SPRING DISEASE.
More Catarrh mt this Season Than In
Any Other.

Any other.
The fact that catarrh is more
prevalent in spring than any other
time Of year is easily accounted
for by the sudden changes, the
warm sunny day succeeded by the
snow or sleet of the next.
Repeated colds in the head re-
sulting from. our tickle spring cli-
mate, very easily drift into nasal
catarrh, which is at first simply
an uncured cold, which finally, il
neglected, causes Inflammation
and 'thickening of the mucous
membrane of the nasal cavity
which gradually extends into the
throat and bronchial tubes and
the stomach, causing catarrh of
stomach.
fla DOuches, of salt water or douches
of any kind very often aggravate
the trouble by still further irritat-
ing the delicate membranes.
The safest remedy for colds in
the head and for any form of
catarrh is some simple and safe
antiseptic, preferably in tablet,
and taken internally several times
day.
One of the best antiseptic catarrh
= tablets for this purpose is one COM
posed of Sanguinaria, Eucalyptol
and Guaiacol, and sold by drug
gists under the name of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets clean the catarrhal
secretion from the membranes of
: the nose and throat and act also
very effectively upon the blood,
their regular use for a few weeks
entirely eliminating the catarrhal
poison from the system
The best remedies for any trou-
BILE are the simplest, and Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets is superior prep
aration for colds and catarrhal
conditions because absolutely free
from cocaine or opiates so com
monty found in cheap cough cures
and catarrh medicines

When these accomplished artists unite

chorus in the rendition of operate en-

feature of their performance, the
musical tone effect is said to be al
most indescribable. Audiences are in
variably aroused to the highest pitch

territory are not as good as we
could wish, they are not as bad as
some people seem to imagine. We
are not in the section Of greatest
wheat damage, that being somewhat
to the north of us, and as much
wheat OF last years crop is still
stored and will be sent out to make
up the deficit in this years crop.
our tonnage will be as large as last
years. In very short time we
shall have in operation all of our
40 miles of new line. Already we
are showing earnings from a small
portion of this. but we expect the
complete result to be considerable.
We will then have considerable new
mileage without any increase in
fixed charges, as the fixed charges
OF this new property are already
appearing in our reports. l am in
formed that important economies
continue to be made in operation
and that we can show an increased
volume OF tonnage with decreased
car mileage and train mileage.
