Paid Their Last Tribute of Respect
to the Late charles Stewart Yes
terday.
In the presence of a large assem-
blage of the sorrowing relatives and
friends, funeral services of a simple
and impressive nature were held yes
terday afternoon at $3.50 o'clock over
the late Charles Stewart, the well
known and popular postoffice clerk.
The ceremonies were conducted at the
home of the deceased's sister On
Twenty-ffth street, and the officiating
minister was the Rev. w. D. Pinson,
pastor of the Fulton NJ E. church. The
interment was at Peninsula cemetery.
James Manton, R. E. Fitzpatrick and

Albright, c. F. Schultz and Allan H..

employees of Mr. Stewart, were the
pall-bearers. About twenty carriers,
eight or ten of the clerks and other
officials of the postoffice were among
those who attended the obsequies.

GOOD NEWS
For Hundreds of People Was the An
nouncement of Shelf Bros.

The announcement yesterday that
Shelf Bros. would continue their dis
count sale, giving twenty per cent. off.
was pleasing news to thousands of
late Christmas buyers. All day yester-
day their store room was crowded
with buyers, eager TO take advantage
of the splendid bargains which this
sale affords. The fact that Shelf Bros.
were absolutely compelled to stop Civ
ing 25 per cent off and give only
twenty, is a very good sign 'of the
splendid values that are TO be had at
this store. Five per cent. is a snail
thing to the customers, but it means
many hundred dollars to Shelf Bros.
The large stock of watches, dia-
monds and jewelry carried by this firm
is absolutely reliable in every particu-
lar. and every piece has a substantial
guarantee back of it. Shelf Bros. buy
for cash in large quantities and are
able to meet any competition. Twenty
per cent. off their prices means great
bargain giving, and that is what they
propose to give the people of Wheel
ing and vicinity this week.

For several days past wild rumors
have been put in circulation by design
ing persons concerning the prevalence
of smallpox in the city Of Wheeling.
In every instance these reports have
been circulated in exaggerated form,
and have been credited by many per-
sons in neighboring towns, as well as
not few in this city who did not take
the pains to ascertain the true facts.
Some of the reports in circulation fix
ed the number of cases at from 30 to
Go. In the towns on the Ohio side of
the river, the exaggerated statements
have been industriously circulated, and
have been given credence in many
quarters.
The reports referred to have moved
some merchants to sign a quarantine
against the city of Wheeling. The OBJ
ject OF such action must be apparent
to everybody. Under the circumstances
the Register deemed it an Opportune
time to publish an authoritative state
ment, and with that end in view saw
the health officer, whose card is pub
lished herewith.
There are, as a matter Of fact, no
cases of smallpox in the city of Wheel
ing but there are eight cases under
treatment in the pest house. All the
cases originated in one colOred resort,
and all the patients are cOlored men.
Every precaution has been taken to
prevent spread of the disease, and the
measures resorted to by the health
authorities have met with gratifying
success. The place in which the cases
originated has been thoroughly fumi-
gated, and it is not believed that there
will be another single case. The dis
ease has manifested itself in a very
mild form, no deaths being reported,
and none being expected
The statement OF the health officer
is as follows:
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-The circulation of wild and exag
gerated rumors as to smallpox in this
city makes it necessary, in the interest
of truth and the business community,
that I should give the exact situation.
There is not single known case of
smallpox in the city proper tonight.
There are but eight cases in the hospital
located nearly a mile east of Market
strickland one of these will be discharg-
ed on Wednesday. All the patients are
colored men, and probably contracted the
disease from the same source in one
building. This building, and all others in
which any case has been found have
been disinfected by the most approved
methods, and thoroughly cleaned. l shall
be surprised and greatly disappointed if
the situation become at any time worse
than at present. for vaccination is being
vigorously and systematically pushed
among the colored people, and soon there
will be little food for smallpox to feed
on.
The talk Of guarantee under existing
circumstances here is wildly irrational,
and would not be countenanced for a
moment by any sanitarian who has the
least regard for his reputation. 1t is on a
par with the closing of church services
in a certain town in Belmont county on
a Sunday when the nearest case of small
pox was eight miles away. My advice is,
protect yourself, as all doctors do, by
vaccination. S. L. JEPSON,
Health Officer.

MUSICAL.

This evening the Pittsburg Orchestra
Victor Herbert. conductor, will be heard
at the Opera House in a programme the
composition of which will prove delight
,ul, as its rendition will be correct and
satisfactory The first part contains those
splendid numbers, the "Fidelio'' overture,
Beethoven, and Wagner's overture TO
''Tannhauser, to say nothing of the
Midsummer Nights Dream" selections,
and NJ Henri Merck's cello number.
while in the second part the greatest
curiosity will. perhaps be over the some
what unfamiliar Tschaikowsky suite.
composed of three characteristic dances.
3ut here, Mr.. Merck will again claim
attention for two cello selections.
The programme has been prepared with
she greatest care, and a clear-cut and
musicianly reading goes, as a matter OF
course, without saying. The Opera House
should be crowded to its capacity this
evening, as our music lovers will other
wise miss a great opportunity.

CayaIIeria Rusticana.

An important factor in the artistic
success of a musical organization is
its director. In engaging a director
for the International Grand operate
COMPANY the managers could have
found no more efficient or consclen-
tious operatic director than Slgnor
Comincio Gnarro, as his record atteSts.
He is a graduate of the Royal Con-
servatoire of Naples, Italy. He has
had wide experience, having been dl-
rector for the leading opera companies
of the country. The 1nternat1ona!
Grand operate Company comes here
for one performance on the 18th, at
the Arion Hall. They will render
programme of two parts, the first con-
sisting of a concert programme or
seven numbers, and the latter part of
the complete performance of Mascag-
mis- "Cavalleria Rusticana." The
event will be one of the musical treats
of the winter and is under the auspices
of the Arab Patrol of the Osiris Tenn
ple and is given mplimentary to the
Masonic fraternity of this city. the
Dublin Times says of Miss Tennien
who takes the part Of Lola, the wife Of
Alto, in "Cavalleria Rusticana:
Miss Terrien (contralto) is an Ameri-
can, a pupil of NJ. Bouhy, in Paris, and
competent critics look forward to
great career for her, for good con-
traltos are very rare. Her rendition OF
the aria from Samson and Dalila,' was
beautiful and showed off her wonderful
voice and range to great advantage.
Her part in the duet from Rossini's
Outs est Homo was also we'll sung.
This young artist soon returns to her
home in America"

o. G. Genther's JeweIry Store Crowd
ed With Holiday Bnyers.

The rush is on and o. c. Genther
the jeweler, at 1869 Main street, is
doing the biggest watch and jewelry
business in town.
Mr.. Genther's stock is immense, and
is replete with all the many beautiful
things that make acceptable Christ
mas presents.
He is the only wholesale jeweler in
town, and his travellers visit the trade
in six States. BY buying in such i'm
mense quantities for his wholesale
trade he is able to undersell any jew
eler in the State, and this is easily to
be seen by the rush Of early buyers
at his store, eager for the great bar
gains now being offered.
