WHEELING INTELLIGENCER
West Virginia's Leading Family
and Political Newspaper.

The year 1900 will begin new epoch
in the history of America. The devel-
opments of the Spanish-American war,
and the new policies, foreign and do
nestle, thereby made necessary will be
discussed in the next Congress, and
will have momentous bearing on the
destiny of the Nation.
State affairs will be of unusual inter-
est, from the fact that a Governor and
state officers are to be elected. The
Legislature that will be chosen at the
same time will elect United States
enator. The Presidential Nominating
Conventions and the ensuing election in
November will be of added importance.
The Intelligencer's unapproachable
news service, foreign and domestic, fur
nished by the Associated Press, is a
guarantee that its readers will be fully
informed on all topics of moment
throughout the world

II all of the election bets that are
reported have actually been made it
doesn't prove which candidate will
be elected, but rather that certain
individuals have more money than
they care to find legitimate use for.
But it is not presumed that the bets
have been made. It's simply a Re
publican method OF endeavor to
raise little enthusiasm in Repub-
lican interest.

Senator Bacon said of the delay
on the part of the Senate committee
charged with the duty OF ineestiga
ting official stealing in Cuba:
What the democrats ought 10 do is
to bring before the country the ac-
ton of the republicans in refusing
to take any steps to ascertain the
true state Of affairs on the island
There is no doaht that the apparent
apathy is due to the tact chat the
republican managers know that a
rigid investigation of affairs would
disclose tn existence Of frauds
which the administration would
rather keep in the dark until after
the coming election"

a Fire Alarm Tha. Gives Particulars.

a fire alarm recently invented is com
bination of the sraphophone and teie-
phone. In the use of the talking alarm
one Of the graphophone machines IS
placed on each floor Of building and
connected with the telephone fire alarm
system. For each machine a record is
prepared. For instance, the graphophone
on the second floor of building would
contain the record. There is fire on
the second floor" &c. This record is
then adjusted SO that these words are
repeated into the telephone by the eN-
banding of thermostat whenever fire
occurs. In this way the origin of a fire
is located Immediately and automatically.
The alarm also lights the electric lights
in the building, sets a red light blazing
in front of the building to guide the
firemen and sounds the alarm into the
street through giant naegaphone-so
we are told.-Science Shiftings.

April.

April.
When mists beside the river kneel,
Like still gray nuns at mathis.
And catkins Ger the willows steal,
All dressed in silvery satins.
Before the solder-reeds uRbend
Their swords to tilt against the wind.
Before the grass begins to toss, =
Its pretty fancies trillinS, /"
Or buttercups find yellow floss
Enough to make their frilling.
The cowslips sit in golden crowds
Beneath dim April's frowning clouds.
Alone within the fields they bide;
NO lover that way fingers;
The alders by the broolllets side
Reach down their long brown fingers;
One lonely robin. on the wing,
Is calling plaintively for spring.
But still, as brave and glad are they
AS any summer beauty:
They ask no rosy holiday;
They smile, for that's their duty.
And all the meadows gladness lies
Within their brave and shining eyes.
They promise days in one bright wreath
OF bloom and sunbeams airy;
The sweetness Of their fresh young
breath
They give the showers to carry
To lonely hor1esteads, near and far,
Where hearts that long for sprlnstime
are.
AS If # were dew. the raindrops wet
They take with CHEEKY lightness
None praise them; but, with 1alr prioe
yet.
They wear their homely brightness.
For truest courage has its birth
Tn an inward sense of worth.
