That Republican Meeting.

Last evening the Republicans held a
meeting at the city hall, which was at
tended by about 700 people. Among this
number were a great many women and
Democrats. The old Republicans, after
hearing a part of the speech left in
disappointment. The stand was dec
Grated in the national colors and dis
tributed conspicuously over it were por-
traits of the party's candidates. At one
corner, on a high pole, was displayed
an immense dinner pail to represent
the full dinner pail" This was evil
IDENTIFY put up with the expectation of
attracting the workingmen. There were
very few visitors from the n%eighboring
towns.
In the early evening a short parade
was given. headed by the Mechanics
band. The Blackburn cadets turned
out, but were disappointed that their
uniforms did not arrive.
The Hon. Marriott Brosius, Congress
man from Pennsylvania, was intro
duced by State Senator F. B. Archer,
who was chairman of the committee.
Mr.. Archer made a very neat introduc-
tory address.
Mr.. Brosius talked for considerable
time and made a very poor impression
on his hearers, as he very successfully
avoided the living issues of the day.
The local Republicans worked hard and
it was not their fault that the meeting
was not a rousing success.

The October number OF the Mount,
published by the students OF Mt. de
EChantal, contains the following:
We, the graduates of 1901, owe a debt
of thanks to DR.. Thomas O'Hagan for
his appreciation and the just estimate
he has formed Of the high standard of
the course OF literature and music given
at Mt. de Chantal. The True Witness
and Catholic Chronicle, or Montreal,
Canada, speaking Of a lecture given by
DIR. Thomas O'Hagan or courses of lit
eratHre, gives from it this quotation:
81 found the best graded and most
comprehensive course of literature at
Mount de Chantal Academy, Wheeling,
w. Va. The work done there is not
inferior 10 the post graduate work in
Literature at Cornell University. The
visitation nuns there excel In two de-
partments, music and lierature.. The
courses of history. mathematics and the
sciences are as comprehensive as that
of literature, and had the doctor ex-
amined them he would have formed the
same high estimate of their excellence.

Town TOpics.

Fashionable boarding house life often
furnishes scenes and sayings that are
funny. But the real thing is hardly equal
to stage productions based upon them,
nor as l~aughable. What, in this respect,
is said to be holding the mirror up to ma
ture,' with various exaggerated phases,
is the farce comedy, Town Topics" which
Is one of the most popular of it's kind. This
play will be presented at the Grand the
first half of next week. The first act rep
resents a boarding house scene in New
York city, and here the fun, that lasts
until the end, begins. There is abundant
diversion throughout the performance, so
much fun making is crowded into it that
not a dull moment can be ound. The
songs, dances, specialties and costumes
are new and up to date, and Wheeling's
rising young comedian, Willie Dunlay, will
make, you laugh.

THE MAT hstwsen the Boxers Al

THE war between the Boxers and the foreign powers is considered to be at an end, and deliberations between the representatives of the Imperial gov erment and the allied powers have be- gun, the result of which will be the conclusion of terms of peace, which will be permanent between theChinese Empire and the civilized powers. The Chinese, however, are a peculiar peo- pie and of uncertain mood. Their em- pire is so vast and so unwieldly that it is impossible, so it seems, for one DOT tion to know or agree to what is being done by the other portion. In addition to this there is a strong feeling against the Imperial family in many parts of the empire, and rebellion is apt to break out at any time against the em- peror and his advisers, which rebellion would be armed against the powers who supported his authority
