Attorney John A. Howard leaves this
morning for Fairmont. where he will
make application in the Circuit Court
before Judge Mason for writ of man
damus asking for the reinstatement of
NJ. NJ. Medley, student of West Union,
Doddridge county, in the State Uni
versity at Morgantown.
The application grows out of the re-
cent trouble at the University, the
final adjustment Of which ended in the
suspension Of five students, among
whom was William Milligan of this
city. The affair has been noised about
and is attracting quite little atten-
ton.
Mr.. Howard was seen about the mat
ter last night and upon being interro-
gated said that the writ would be ask
ed upon the ground that Mr.. Neeley'
suspension was the result of spite
work on the part of President Ray
mond, of the University. The bill also
charges that the i'll feeling of the pres
ident toward Mr.. Neeley was the di-
rect result of the action taken against
the former by the latter, when an en-
deavor was made during the last school
year to have the president removed.
Mr.. Neeley at that time was identified
it was said, with those most prominent
in asking the board of regents to re-
move President Raymond. An impress
sion has gained credence, especially
among the students at Morgantown,
that the writ is for the purpose of Sc
curing the removal of DR.. Raymond.
This is not the case, as no other body
but the board of regents has that au-
thority. 1t has also been noised about
that Mr. Neeley had been furnished
with funds by number of gentlemen
in different sections of the State to
bring about Mr.. Raymonds removal.
This is also denied. However, it is
said that the expense is not all his, for
a test case is to be made, which will
establish a precedent on which the
other four cases will hang and be de-
termined by the result.

A Pretty Cantonese Maiden.

According to European and Ameri-
can notions the prettiest Chinese
women are those of Canton and the
southern provinces, where the truly
celestial type prevails. They have the
deformed feet, to be sure, but their
cheeks are more oval and their coun-
tenances a trifie more intelligent than
those elsewhere, it is said. That beauty
is only relative term. depending great
ly upon the point of view, is amply
shown by the Chinese standards. The
most beautiful woman is the one with
the smallest deformed feet and the
broadcast moon face" so often sung
about by the Chinese poets. There is,
however, vast difference between the
Chinese proper and the Mantchoo rul-

aged.
At 1:30 this morning an alarm from
box 40 called the fire department to the
beef company's building in the Fifth
ward, where a shed had taken fire
from hot ashes, which had been care
lessly thrown into it. The blaze was
extinguished II a few moments.
At half past two this morning fire
broke out in the Globe tea store at No.
3545 Jacob street, conducted by John j.
Monahan, and box 81 was pulled. The
firemen responded promptly to the
alarm but when they arrived on the
scene the flames had already gained
considerable Roadway.
The blaze started in the second story
of the building, between the floor and
the ceiling, and hole was burned
through the floor. The burning en-
bers fell through to the store room on
the first floor and the flames spread
rapidly in all directions Nearly the
entire stock of teas and other goods
were either destroyed or damaged by
fire and the loss will probably run up
into the thousands.
1t required about an hour to get the fire
under control. The police were inclined
to believe that it was the work Of incen-
diaries The Eighth ward and Niagara
engine companies, which arrived first,
used every available line of hose and
some excellent work was done in prevent
ing the flames spreading to the adjoining
property.

Another Election Bet.

Last evening about eight o'clock pc
destrians on Market street were attract
ed by the unusual sight of one man
wheeling another in wheelbarrow
hung with Chinese lanterns. The
course was between Tenth and Four
teenth. The man in the barrow was
Alexander Jones, a bricklayer, who
boards at No. so Alley Is. He was
evidently enjoying himself. He had
two lighted sticks of red fire, which
he waived exultingly about. The man
who did the wheeling was Republi-
can whose name could not be ascer-
tanned. The bet was on the result of
the sheriffalty.

REPUBLICANS 70 JOLL|FY
SATURDAY NIGHT OVER THE RE-
suit OF THE ELECTION ON
TUESDAY.
CLUBS WILL ALL TURN OUT
Democrats Are to Have Little
Demonstration Over the Election
of w. w. Irwin-Unoffcfal Returns
Show Irwin to Have Had Over Four
Hundred Majority.

The Republicans apparently ex-
hausted themselves in their jubilation
over the magnificent victory on Tues
day while they were receiving the re-
turns on that night. Outside OF the
payment of few freak" wagers
there has been very little to remind
the public that a Presidential election
was held, and that quietude which pre-
walls the streets during the evenings
is in striking contrast to the noisy
demonstrations of every evening dur
ing the past fortnight.
The Republicans will have to jollify
as a matter of course, and they have
about concluded to fix upon Saturday
hight as the time. All the Republican
marching cubs in the city will take
part, and as matter Of course there
will be Democrats in the parade who
will in that manner pay the penalty
for their confidence in Democratic vic
tory.
The unofficial returns from Ohio
county indicate the election of w. w.
Irwin as sheriff by a majority Of All.
The Register figures yesterday morn
ing were 408 slight mathematical

gencer mathematical editor was de-
cidedly off. That paper gives Twins
plurality as $50, but it's own figures,
correctly added, show 1t to be All.
