The funeral of the late Otto Tyson
took place yesterday afternoon from
the residence of his mother at Park
View. The great popularity of de-
ceased was Enthusiastically attested by
the concourse of friends who paid the
last tribute of respect to his mortal
remains, and followed them to their.
last resting place in Greenwood ceme-.
terry. The funeral procession was one
of the longest seen in this vicinity in
years. When the first mourners were
entering the gates of the cemetery, the
last carriage was coming over the hill
at Wheeling Park. Nearly one thous-
and persons assembled at the house,
most of them standing in the rain I'M
able to gain admission.
Members of Wheeling Lodge No. %,
b. P o. Elks, and the Knights of
Pythias, occupied five special cars on
the w. & E. G. road. Members of the
Saloon Keepers Association and
Wheeling Turnverein, and also County
Commissioners and city and county Of
hcials, went out in other cars.
Previous to the arrival of the lodges
with the Opera House band, services
at the house were conducted by the
Rev. William Ulfert, pastor of ST.
Johns German Protestant church, who
spoke briefly over the remains. The
Elks service was conducted at the
house by the Rev. Luther w. Doggett,
a member of the order. He pronounc-
ed a brief eulogy. The Knights of
Pythias services were conducted at
the grave. While in the cemetery,
members of the Elks discovered the re-
mains of the late Hon. A. D. Garden,
short distance away, and decorated
it with flowers.
The floral tributes were magnificent.
The Elks sent large elk head, and
there were beautiful designs from the
Knights of Pythias, the saloon keepers,
the Turner's, and the Board of Com
missioners, as well as many smaller
pieces from individuals. The pail
bearers were Messrs. Park Glass, Robt.

General News From the Metropolis

For some time during the revival
services at the South NJ. e. church
there has been crowd OF young men
attending, occupying the rear seats,
and each night they endeavor to make
large amount OF noise and make
comments ON the actions of the mem
bers or those who join the church
This annoyance was not spoken of for
some time, but the police from now
on will keep an eye on these young
men, and if they do not desist they
will be arrested. Some OF this crowd
belong to the best families of the city,
but they will all be treated alike When
brought before the Mayor.

Some of the architects who drew
plans for the new city building and
claim their plans were drawn with
basement, and after showing them to
Council were informed that they did
not want a basement, and owing to
this the Wheeling parties were success
full, as their plans had no basement.
Those who had plans drawn with
basement will ask Council for a con-
sideration for their trouble, as Council
did not adopt what they asked for.
But it is we'll to remember Council
did not ask for bids, and only issued a
letter asking for competitive plans,
and further it can be said that the
State Board of Charities forbid a Jail
in a basement. While some OF those
who failed to get the contract may ask
for a consideration, it is doubtful II
any can be secured.

Political
Pointers.

One OF the very interesting rumors
about deals and combinations among
Republican aspirants for Office, is that
James Kelsey Hall will at what is deem
ed the proper time, withdraw from the
race for Auditor in favor Of Arnold
Scherr. This would virtually give the
nomination to Scherr, as these two are
regarded as the strongest candidates. OF
course the report has it that there is
good consideration tor Hall, and it is
given out that he is to be appointed
Secretary of State. The story is lack
ing in elements of probability, inasmuch
as it is generally believed that if White
is elected Governor, VIM. M. o. Dawson
will be retained in the Office Of Secre-
tary. However, strange things happen
in politics.

ample, if the recalcitrants in the party
will break the slate Of the bosses. All
Indications now point to a first class
row. There have already been open
declarations of hostilities. The anti
ring element Is too strong to be ignor-
ed by Elkins and the more or less
prominent leaders who flutter about
him like moths around candle. The
kickers will win, or will dictate terms
of compromise. The Atkinson element
is not in the ascendancy, but it consti-
tutes a large and desidedly trouble
some minority. Col. Thos. E. Davis
and other deserving Republicans, are
not apt to soon forget the treatment
they have received at the hands of the
bosses. There is discomfort ev-
erywhere. The factions which would
have supported Gen. Curtin, will rally
around Romeo H. Freer. He is SPLEEN
did leader for the anti-ring element,
and the announcement has been made
that his fight is for majority rule
against bossism. Freer possesses a mag
netism which is lacking in White, and
is Whites superior as stumper. He
may be expected to make inroads in
to Whites strength, which will precipi-
tate a lively row, If indeed it will not

Charlie Swisher is making an active
canvass for the nomination for Audi
tor, and while his most sanguine friend
will not say that he will secure the
nomination on first ballot he
will have a following which,
to use a homely expression is
mot to be sneezed at" He will have
Marion county solid, and his claims en-
brace several neighboring counties. L.
A. LaFollette is also stirring up troub-
lie for the trainers of the slate. His ar
gument that one good term deserves an
other, is supplemented by all the for
chile arguments against boss dictation.
If the "anti's" win, it's a safe guess
that LaFollette's name will be On the

That has been going on for a quarter of
century, with the result that the de-

nothing but the finances, for no other
land has been blessed as ours has been.

years ago on finance stands good to-

And commenting on false cry Of

The editor of Salt Lakes sun

the Tribune says there Is no argu-
ment for silver let it prove that pre-
