Time to Get Together.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-The public has been surfeited
with the peculiar brand of politics
which has been furnished by the mem
bers of the ity Council, and it is a
matter to be deplored that the action
of certain Councilmen should lead to
the suspicion that money is being is
properly used Assuming this to be
true. there is an opportunity for right
thinking members of both parties, who
have knowledge of the practice of de-
bauchery and corruption, to defeat
the plans of those who engage in them.
My suggestion is that men of probity
upon both sides, Democrats and Re
publicans in equal number if possible,
get together and arrange an equitable
distribution of the offices from a po-
litical standpoint, but with a primary
regard for fitness. l am convinced
that there are enough pure men in
Council to carry through scuh a pro-
gramme. 1t would insure a better ad-
ministration of city affairs than
Wheeling has ever had. and would be
the nearest appearance 10 a none-par-
tisan administration that is practic-
able. In view of the uncertainties of
the present situation. neither majority
nor minority would feel that they were
losing anything by such an arrange
ment. Once OF the strongest argu-
ments for it, is that it would be a
rebuke to those who are guilty of cor
rupt practices. Respectfully.

SUCCESS OF MR.. H. W. HUGHES
He Receives Very Complimentary
Notice Upon His Singing in Paris.

He Receives a Very CompIimentar,
Notice Upon His Singing in Paris.
Mr.. H. w. Hughes, formerly of
Wheeling, recently appeared in grand
concert in Paris, France. La Ga
zette,' of Paris, of January 9th, re-
ferred to Mr. Hughes singing in the
following complimentary article:
Mr. Hughes, of New York, in a most
superior manner, interpreted the Coup
lets Vulcain de Philemon Eft Baucis
(Gounod). The artist has a magnifi-
cent bass voice, and handles it with re-
markable science that is near to grand
art. The artist was also the worthy
partner of Mile Berthe Mendes de Leon
(of the opera in the delicate duet OF
Hirondelles de Mignon, of Ambrose
Thomas. We have also to congratu-
late Mr.. Hughes for the rapidity with
which he has succeeded in overcoming
the difficulties of the pronunciation
and articulation of our language"

A Subject of Interest.

10 the EQ1tOr or the Register
Sir:-I am naturally of a religious
inclination, although not a member of
any church. l respect all churches
and concede, without an effort, that all
do good, in greater or less degree.
From time to time | note that some
minister laments the fact mat the pub
lie does not respond with either enthu-
siasm or anything like unanimity to
the calls of the church, and detect a
tendency to the belief on the part of
the dispensers of the gospel that the
perversity of humanity, the wiles of
the devil and an inherent inclination
to do wrong combine to keep many
people away from the house of God,
and to thereby lessen the power of the
gospel, etc.
AS say, don't belong to church
never did and never expect to-and yet
respect all the churches and believe
in them generally. | have not joined
any church. Why? Because | must
go to the church. 1t isn't worth while.
am as good a citizen now as [ might
be if ] belonged to six churches, and
am willing to take chance that mere
membership in a church of any given
denomination has never saved a soul
and never win.
But that's a little aside from the
question ! wish to breach, and that is:
Why must presumably erring humani-
ty go to the Church? Why should not
the Church seek out the lost sheep,
and go to them? If I remember Alright,
that was the method of the olden time.
Christ's precept was to go forth and
preach the gospel, and His disciples
obeyed him, even unto journeys into
the wilderness. After LSssnty centuries
it is different. The Church-any
Church-ren1ains stationary, grand,
uncompromising forbidding, grand in
polished affairs, beautiful, after a sort,
in stained glass windows, and monot-
onous in senSeless ceremonies, meant
to be impressive, and to these the
seeker after Truth and Righteousness
must go. The natural result is that,
in the majority of instances, the
Truth-seeker is content to worship
God according to the dictates of his
own conscience, and let the Church
get along as best it can.
Why does not the Church come to
the people? 1t has the Savior of man
kind as precedent and as an exam
pie.
A BELIEVER.

RAILROAD NOTES.


There is an immense amount of good
coal in the region surrounding Cadiz,
o., and it is reported that a company
is to be formed soon to build bsanch
line which may eventually be extended
to Benwood or Beliaire so as to con-
meet with the Panhandle Wheeling di-
vision of the G. & P. river division,
and form a short line between Wheel
ing, Toledo and Chicago, via the Pan
handle main line, the Walhonding VAL
ley and the TT. Wayne. This would
be a very important branch line and
would more than pay for itself in coal
shipments alone. 1t would form a
short and direct line between Wheel
ing and Cleveland via New Corners
town and Bayard. A gentleman, who
is well-informed on the matter, says
that if the extension from Cadiz to
the Ohio river is not built by the Penn
sylvania Company it will be construct
ed by parties who have bought up the
coal lands and who propose to open
mines.-Plttsburg Post.

solution of alum and water, they
would never take fire; if they came
in contact with flame they would
merely smolder.

vouno man of capacity, industry
and into r;tv has a field for individu-
al effort such as
oppor'uhi'ieS has never before
houns Men. existe d in this
country. writes Edward Box of "The
Times and the Young Man." in the
Ladies' Home Journal. And success Is
neither harder nor easier than 1t ever
was. Success never yet came to the
laggard, and it never will. Let
young man be capable, have enter
prise, be willing to work, and carry
himself like a man, and he goes
where he will His success depends
upon himself. No times, no condl-
tions, no combinations of capital can
stop young man who has de-
termination to honorably succeed,
and who is willing to work according
to the very utmost of his capacity
and sinews of strength. The real
trouble is that the average young
man won't work. He has gotten the
insane notion in his head that sue
cess comes by luck; that men are
made by opportunities which either
come to them or are thrust upon
them. And ne waits for luck or
chance to come along and find him.
Instead of taking sane view of con-
ditions and seeing with clear mind
that as trade widens opportunities in
crease, he takes the mistaken view
that the rich are, getting richer and
the poor poorer. These are the con-
ditions of mind and life which are
keeping thousands of young men
down, and will keep them down. The
times are all right. 1t is the young
man who finds fault with them who
is not.

Fearing that her 16 pet cats would
have hard time of it after she was
dead, Mrs. Annie Adamson, who died
at Piermont, N. Y, few days ago, left
instructions that the cats be chloro-
formed and buried in the cat cemetery
upon her premises. This was done by
relatives OF Mrs. Adamson. She was
so years old at the time of her death
and for quarter of century never
had less than dozen cats in the house.

From wealthy American heiresses to
Indian squaws with $4,000 dowry
would be big descent, even if the
latter had any existence. But, ac-
cording to the Boston Herald, even
an unfounded rumor that Uncle Sam
has endowed Indian brides to give
away has been enough to attract the
notice of impecunious foreigners:
1--WE get another instructive hint as
to the thriftiness of foreign gentle
men from the large number of let
ters that are being received from
abroad at the Indian bureau in Wash
ington inquiring as to the trust
worthiness OF the statement that our
government has placed 5000 Indian
girls in the matrimonial market, and
that it will give a $4,000 dowry and
100 acres of land to each squaw. It's
taking proposition to the fortune
hunting foreigner"
