Hot Milk a. Nutri.n emf.

If any one doubts the nourishing
properties of milk, let a test be made
of the following preparation of it:
When very weary or weak from ex-
haustion, heat some milk to the scald-
ing point, until a thin skin begins to
wrinkle upon the surface, and then
drink it as hot as possible. 1t re-
freshes almost instantly and restores
the exhausted vitality tc q surprising

WHAT II PROVIDES FOR.
TO BENWOOD CITIZENS RE
GARDING A CHANGE
IN WHEELING RAILWAY LINE
tween Two POints-Cars Especially
for the Central Portion of the
City-Action Deferred Until We'd
nesday Evening.

A committee Of thirteen of the Ben
wood citizens are now considering a
new proposition which they received
from the Wheeling Railway Company
at their meeting Friday evening, with
reference to the contemplated change
in the tracks through the central por-
ton of the town. Those composing
this committee are Samuel Welch,
Charles Holderman and John P. Rob
insOn, of the First ward; Joseph Ma
hood, Walter Greenwood, Robert New
ton, Thomas P. Deegan, James E. Bar
rett, Charles Schad and Squire Henry
Riddle, chairman, OF the Second and
Third wards, and William Bosley John
G. Manley and Harry Parkley, Of the
Fourth ward.
1t was learned yesterday from one of
the committeeman that the terms of the
proposition were as follows:
The Wheeling Railway Company
makes the following offer:
! eve will give a FIVE cent fare from
Sauers' switch to North Wheeling, also
five cent fare from North Wheeling to
Sauers' switch; will also run three cars
especially for the central portion of the
city of Benwood on a twenty minute
schedule, those care to run from Tenth
street in Wheeling to Eighth street in
BenwoOd, ending at what is known as
Geogeline's corner, on Main street; will
make an approach to Marshall street,
either on Seventh or Eighth streets,
just as Council may demand; will brick
our tracks also between them, provid-
ing the city will grant US right to put
in a double track from Fourth, Schad S
crossing, to McMechen's run, the out
side of road from the track to be
macadamized the full width on Ken
lucky Heights"
The citizens have decided to meet
next Wednesday evening at the town
hall for the purpose of taking action In
the matter, but It is not even intimated
how the question of a change in the
railway line which has been so vigor-
| ously opposed by the citizens may then
be disposed OF.

HARRIS MAKES A FIGHT.
DOES MOI WANT TO COME TO
ANSWER TO EMBEZZLEMENT
CHARGE.
INGRAM HAD THE PRISONER
On RequisitiOn Papers, But Harris
Consul Got a Writ of Habeas Cor
pus Before the Prisoner Was Cot
ten Out of the JaiI-Jastice Shop
Cases and Other Criminal Matters.

1t appears that J. NJ. Harris, who is
wanted here for embezzlement Of funds
belonging to J. B. Mckee, is determined
not to come to Wheeling for trial with
out a fight. The following telegram
concerning the legal proceedings in
Richmond is self-explanatory
special to the Register.
RICHMOND, Va, December 15.-J.
on. Harris, alias Hemingway, the young
man who is wanted in Wheeling made
a narrow escape from being hurried
away on a requisition this morning
Governor Tyler had granted a warrant
of rendition and Detective Dan Ingram
was in the Jail ready to take his pris-
oner to the train when Harris coun-
sci entered the prison with a writ Of
habeas corpus issued by Judge Samuel
Witt, of the Hastings Court.
The West Virginia officer protested
against this course, as Harris had been
turned over to him, and was no longer,
he claimed, in the custody of the au-
thorities of this State. The prisoner
was returned to his cell to await the
hearing on the writ, which was made
returnable Monday morning at ten
o'clock.
Attorney Smith argued that as the
prisoner had not been taken outside the
jail he was still in the custody Of the
deputy. Deputy Johnson said he would
rest in the matter until he conferred
with Judge Witt. As a result OF the
conference, Harris was held until Mon
day morning. Officer Ingram recog-
nized Harris when he saw him at the
ja-4 this morning, and said there was
no doubt that he was the man wanted.
The portrait sent out by the Wheeling
officers is a good one OF the man held
here.
Mr.. Smith, counsel for Harris, receiv-
ed telegram from relatives of the man
and will make an effort to hold him
further when the case comes up on
Monday. The charge upon which Har-
ris is wanted in Wheeling is the en-
bezzlement of a sum of money from J.
B. Mckee, cigar dealer of that place
Detective Ingram also says that Harris
is wanted at Fairmont, W. Va, on a
similar charge. There is little doubt
that the habeas corpus proceedings will
60 against Harris.

DIAMOND SELLING.
Rare Gems Sold on the Closest Mar
gins.

One of the features of Shelf Bros.
big discount sale is their diamond BUSH
ness. The firm has gone extensively
into the diamond business and this
means that diamonds will be sold
cheaper in Wheeling than ever before.
Their stock of diamonds is complete
throughout. Anything from $500 to
$1,000 can be had to suit the taste and
pOcketbook. AS nothing is reserved in
this discount sale this fine stock of dia-
monds, costing over $4,000 is now on
sale at 10 per cent off regular price. The
regular price with Shelf Bros. means
lower than other people sell, and 10 per
cent off the regular price gives bargains
never before equalled in Wheeling.
When Shelf Bros. sell you diamonds
you pay for the diamonds, and not for
their reputation; that is the reason
why they sell fine white diamonds SO
cheap.

20 PER CENT.
Shelf Bros. Compelled to Cease Giving
% Per Cent. OLA Significant


% Per Cent. OF-A Significant
Change.
When Shelf Bros inaugurated their
great 25 per cent. discount sale, they
planned it particularly for the benefit
of early Christmas buyers. 1t proved
a tremendous success, but in justice to
themselves Shelf Bros. were compelled
to limit the time of the sale. Many
articles of sterling value were actually
going below cost. This great sale
therefore closed last night; but in
view of the requests of many old GUS
toners, who were unable to avail them
selves of the 25 per cent. discount sale,
they have determined to continue Civ
ing a discount, not a discount of 25
per cent, but 20 per cent The five per
cent. difference does not mean much to
the public, but it means many hundred
dollars to Shelf Bros. The prices at
which reliable jewelry has been sold
at this discount sale are without a
parallel in the history of bargain Civ
ing in Wheeling, and to protect them
selves the firm has been compelled to
make this discount 20 per cent. instead
of % per cent
Shelf Bros stock is large and COM
plete in every detail; it offers the fin
est selection in watches, diamonds and
fine jewelry to be found in the city of
Wheeling The twenty per cent. dis
count sale will continue until January
| l. 1t offers a rare opportunity to get
the best in the jewelry line at the low
est prices.
