1t is learned from an authoritative
source that the report in an evening
paper to the effect that the National
Tube Company lately acquired posses
sion of the Wheeling Railway Com
pany's barns in upper Benwood for the
sum of $4,000, is wholly untrue.
The general belief is that the Ma
tional Company has been negotiating
for the property for the proposed ex-
tensive improvements to the Riverside
works, but such a deal has not been
consummated, according to statements
made last evening by Attorney Will
lam H. Hearne, who represents the in
terests of the National Company, and
Superintendent Kirker, of the Wheel
ing railway line.
In speaking to the Register of the
reported transfer of the property, At
er or not the Tube Company was anx-
ious to secure possession Of the Wheel
ing railway barns, but added that the
National Company had no deed for
the barns and had made no offer OF
$50, 900 for the property, therefore the
evening papers informant was greatly
mistaken. Mr.. Hearne also stated that
the National Tube Company after
about a years work has either institu-
Tod 0ndoponofin nrGooodinO orc nr hos
deeds or agreements for all the prop
erty that it wishes to acquire for the
contemplated extension to the River
side mill.
In reply to a question as to what
kind of improvements are contempla-
ted by the National Company the plant
which will be erected will be a large
and costly one, and beneficient in a
most marked degree to the business
of both Wheeling and Benwood. Su-
perintendent Kirker. of the Wheeling
railway line, when asked last evening
if there was any truth in the report
that the barns had been purchased by
the National Tube Company, replied
that it was news to him.
In a talk with E. M. Lewis, of
Moundsville, clerk of the Marshall
county court, it was learned that no
papers showing the transfer of the
property had been recorded.
The commissioners appointed by the
circuit court of Marshall county for
the Benwood and Wheeling Railway
Connecting Company, a corporation
which will assist in the immense i'm
provements to the Riverside, have
completed the work Of condemning
property in upper Benwood. The Luz
bic property, which is very desirably
located being on the ame line with
other property, that has been pur-
chased by the National Tube Company
during the past several months, was
the last piece of property to be con
demned. 1t was appraised yesterday
at SIS, 800, and is the anne property
that the National Company Of
fered $4,000 for recently, so
it is said. The commissioners ap-
pointed by the court were ]. M. Rob-
erts, David Lewis, Miles Pierce, w. L.
Conner and s. T. Courtwright.
1t is said that the National Company
will petition the Benwood Council for
the right to make some changes in the
upper part of the industrial town to
suit their plans and it is thought that
in view of the Importance of these i'm
provements to Wheeling and Benwood
that the body will make concessions
in the matter.

More Reported.
CROTON LANDING, N. Y, April Is.
In accordance with the promise made
last night by Gen. Roe, in command
of the troops, work was resumed to-
day at the Cornell dam. The strikers
made no opposition. OF this number
about so were stone masons, while the
others were laborers and men who
work on the little quarry trains.
None of the men who reported for
duty were strikers, and there still re-
main u between 400 and 500, mostly
Italians. OF the so stone aso who
returned to work, 16 were Italians.
As the men were assembling at the
works, Separate Companies A and B
made a demonstration on the hill. This
was done to assure the strikers that
the soldiers were ready for any emer-

sponse to an Invitation to n JEFF
fersOn Banquet.
NEW YORK, April 1S.-The Brook
| Ign Democratic club gave a dinner to-
night at the Germania club to COM
| memmorate the 18th anniversary OF
| the birth of Thomas Jefferson.
About $50 persons were present. AT
| the guests table were Ex-Governor
James E. Campbell, of Ohio; Joseph ].
| Willett, of Alabama, and other promi-
nent public men.
Former President Grover Cleveland
sent a letter regretting his inability
to be present and expressing his opin-
ions of the present Democracy as fol-
lows:
PRINCETON, N. j., April u, 1900.
To Louis F. Burchard,
Dear Sir:-I regret that I am unable
| to accept your invitation to attend the
| dinner to be given by the Brooklyn
Democratic club on the 18th instant,
to commemorate the birth OF
Thomas Jefferson.
When those who profess the Demo
cratic faith meet to celebrate the birth
of the man who first gave that faith a
| distinct formulation, their pride In the
| achievements and triumphs of the
| party which he founded should not en-
tirely displace all thought of the po-
litical situation and the conditions
which in the light of experience ap-
| pear to be essential to its success
Though the faults of the party in
power are many and though its offenses
| against the political health and safe
ty of the country are fragrant, these
| things should not encourage us to base
an expectation of success and a hope
| for the restoration of wholesome ad-
| ministration, upon the shortcomings OF
our adversaries.
We should too well understand their
| ability to attach to their fortunes the
| powerful contingent Of selfish interests
to place confident reliance upon the
| weakness which ought to be the pen
atty of their misdeeds.
Besides, mi Of US can close our
| eyes to the fact that the Democratic
party is only formidable in its own
| strength. Its power to win victories
| has always been found to depend upon
a sturdy and consistent adherence to
its time honored principles. which
have proved sufficient to meet every
| emergency in our national life. What
| ever successes may have attended a
party of opportunity, with sails spread
| for every transient breeze of popular
| sentiment or excitement. experience
| has a~bundantly demonstrated that De-
| mocracy is so constituted that 1t is
only strong when courageous in the
right, and only victorious when its
forces are m~arshalled under its old
and we'll organized standards.
Our principles are 10 simple and
they accord so well with the honest
American disposition which loves free
dom and cares for the public welfare
that they are easily understood by the
Democratic masses. AS a result Of
this there has never been a time wher
false leadership of our party and a de-
parture from simple Democratic faith
have not been quickly discovered and
ruthlessly rebuked by ~listless support
pronounced detection and bitter de,

feat These consequences have thus
far been so inevitable that lessons they
teach cannot be disregarded without
inviting calamity.
The healthfulness Of our party may
well be questioned when it shrinks
from such an examination Of its posi-
ton as will enable it to avoid disaster,
by keeping in a course of safety, un-
der the guidance of true Democracy.
Therefore, those who claim to be fol-

of doubt and temptation. they neglect
such an examination and If this d.scloses

What a splendid type of tireless activity is
the sun as the psalmist describes it issuing like
"a bridegroom from his chamber and rejoicing
like strong man to run a race" Every man
ought to rise in the morning refreshed By slum-
Der and renewed by rest, eager for the struggle
of the day. But how rarely this is so. Most
people rise still unrefreshed, and dreading the
strain of the days labors. The cause of this is
deficient vitality and behind this lies defic-
lent supply of pure, rich blood, and an made
quate nourshment of the body. There is moth
ing that will give a man strength and energy as
will Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
1t does this by increasing the quantity and
quality of the blood supply. This nourishes
the nerves, feeds the brain, builds up enfeebled
organs, and gives that sehse of strength and
power which makes the struggle of life JOY.
The good feeling which follows the use "Gol-
den Medical Discovery is not due to stimula-
tion as it contains no alcohol, whisky or other
intoxicant. 1t does not brace up the body, but
builds it up into condition of sound health.
