AT BENW00D.

The Entire Town Under Water the
Whole Day-Loss Will be Light.
AS was stated yesterday morning the
entire city of Benwood and vicinity
was placed under several feet of water
and there was hardly a house in the
overlooked from the river at ten
o'clock ana flooded all the districts that
had not been previously flooded by the
water coming through the sewers. In
central Benwood the loss is nominal,
the principal loss being fences and out
buildings. At ten o'clock last night
there still remained one and one-half
feet of water on the streets at Sixth
and Main.
The Riverside and Wheeling Steel
and Iron Companies works were under
water last evening and it will probably
be the last of the week before work
can be resumed, the principal loss here
will be the inconvenience. At the Riy-
erside Improvements little or no loss
will result as the company had large
force of men at work preparing for the
flood, and several thousand sacks of
concrete were carried and placed in
freight cars Sunday.
The most serious losses were at
Whiteman's, the lowest portion in the
vicinity. Water was in the second
stories and one house was overturned
by the rush of water So far as could
be found out no loss of life had occur
red. A report was in circulation that
Pole had drowned himself, but this
was found to be without foundation.
Cars will probably be running to-day.

30 Surgical Operation, No Pair
TriflinE Expense-A Simple, Harm
less Remedy but 1t Does tn
Work.
There are some people who have
piles as regularly and frequently as
other people have colds. Any little
bowel trouble will bring them on,
any extra exertion, as in lifting,
will produce them. and in fact will
often appear without any apparent
provocation. Piles, however, Is
much more serious than cold. as
the tendency is always to grow
worse until the trouble becomes
deep seated and chronic, or devel-
opes into some fatal rectal disease.
While there are many pile rene
dies which give relief, yet there is
but one which not only gives in
slant relief but at the same time
makes a permanent cure, and that
is the we'll known Pyramid Pile
Cure.
This remedy is composed OF SIM
pie, harmless vegetable ingredients,
but combine so effectively and act
SO promptly and thoroughly that it
cures every form of piles whether
itching, blind, bleeding or protrud-
ing. In long standing cases the
Pyramid Pile Cure has proven to be
the only certain cure except a sur
glcal operation. and its advantages
over an operation are many. as it is
painless, causes no delay or inter
ference with daily occupation and.
last but not least, is cheaper than
any surgical operation could posi-
bly, be. costing so cents a package
at any drug store. The cases that
the Pyramid Pile Cure will not
reach are so few that physicians are
doing away with operations for
piles and depending on this cheap
but effective remedy to accomplish
a complete cure, and it never dis
appoints except in cases beyond the
reach of medical skill. The Pyra-
mid Pile Cure is prepared by the
Pyramid Drug Co., of Marshall,
Mich, and for sale by druggists
everywhere at so cents per pack
age. Each package contains treat
Use on cause and cure of piles. to-
gether with testimonials from every
section of this country.

MINERS ALL OUT.

All the Miners in the Southern Part
of Sub-District No. Are Not
Working.
AS a result of the failure of the min
ers and operators to agree at their last
conference all the mines in sub-district
No. quit work yesterday, and the
many miners in this section are idle,
and the tie-up is complete.
A Register reporter called on Vice
President D. H. Sullivan last evening
at his headquarters at the Belmont ho-
tel in Bridgeport. Mr.. Sullivan stated
that all had quit work and that the
miners were satisfied with the actions
taken by their representatives and
that all were quiet, and the miners
thought that their claim was just He
also stated that they had called on a
number of operators in Bellaire, and
that all seemed disposed to agree to
the scale asked by the miners. 1t is
understood that a number of the oper-
ators would like to sign, but owing to
their agreement cannot do so.

other towns and cities that can not be

The applications Of Ehas. L1aRue and
Robert Clark were then taken up for
final action. Mr.. Maurer stated that
Clark's lease provides that no women
can be allowed on his premises and that
Mr.. Clark is willing to withdraw II
any proof be furnished that he allows
women ON his premises. The fact was
disclosed that the objection to Clark
came from a neighbor Upon motion
it was decided to recommend favorable
action upon Clark's application. La
Rue's application will also be reported
fayorably.
The applications upon which action
was deferred at the last meeting of the
Committee, on account of insufficiency
of the sureties, were next taken up.
The Prosecuting Attorney did not
object to the applicants who offered
Samuel Welty and Will Welty as sure
ties, and upon motion they were re-
commended favorably.
The other sureties to which Mr.. Mes
bitt objected were Thos. F. Thoner,
Jas. A. Lancaster. James Nichol, VIM.
fIaller and H. B. Grimm. The num-
Der of applications upon which they
were offered is as follows: Thoner
"a, Haller 81, Grimm IL, Lancaster 49,,
Nichol %. The Messrs. Welty were on
2S applications.
Mr. Ritz asked several questions
of the Prosecuting Attorney. He
wanted to know if a surety were back
ed UP with an indemnifying bond, if
that would not be sufficient.
Mr. Nesbitt replied in the negative.
He explained the law with reference to
the sufficiency of sureties, stating that
they must be worth, over and above
all obligations, sum equal to the ag-
gregate amount for which they offer
themselves as bondsmen. He had exam
ined some of the five Objectionable
sureties, and ascertained that none of
them were worth the amounts for
which they offered themselves as sure
ties.
The case of Mr.. Nichol was taken UP.
Mr. Nesbitt said he was worth $4,000
and was on 100000 worth of bonds.
Mr.. Burke asked if an indemnifying
bond were good, and Mr.. Nesbitt re-
piled that it was not.
"If the Schmulbach Brewing Co.
furnishes an indemnifying bond of
100000, do you say that Mr.. Nichols
is not competent surety?"
'tHe would not be. / understood that
Mr.. Nidhol has an indemnifying bond,
given to him personally by the brewing
company If Mr.. Schmulbach will
write his name under that of Mr.. Mich
oil. I will waive all objections.
A question was raised as to the du-
ties of the committee with reference
to bonds, some members taking the po-
sition that it was not within the prov
ince of the committee to inquire into
the sufficiency of the bond
The matter was finally disposed OF
by the adoption of motion to recon-
mend the granting of all the licenses,
when Council shall have been satisfied
that the bonds are sufficient.

Ribbon Stockings.

Ribbon stockings ale one of the latest
fads of Dame Fashion and clever girls
who like to keep in the forefront of the
dress procession, but who also have to
count the pennies carefully, are making
their own.
The foundation for the ribbon-trimmed
stocking is a plain black stocking, silk
or Isle. Bands of ribbon half an inch
wide and three inches long, each end fin
ished with a little loop, are fastened up
on the stockings in such a way that they
form a gradually widened figure. At the
ankle the ribbon bands are side by side
and almost touch, but at the calf, where
they terminate, with small buckle.
they are two or three inches apart. This
gives a pretty shape to the ankle and
makes a fiat leg appear round.
The most refined of these ribbon
trimmed stockings are of fine black Isle,
trimmed with black satin ribbon. The
bands are fastened to the stockings with
very small safety pins or with tiny jew
cled pins.
Another stocking novelty is the black
one trimmed with Il very large ribbon
bow. which is fastened upon the instep.
a low-cut slipper, absolutely plain, is
worn with this stocking. The foot looks
extremely dainty dressed in this small
black slipper and the ribbon bow upon
the instep makes the latter appear high.

A STORY OF THE SToDDARDS.
Wife Knew Husband was Not Open
ing Sardines with Prayer.

Dr. Stimson tells a story of the Stod-
dards which loses nothing by the doc
tors telling. Every one who knows him
at all knows that it is possible for Rich
ard Henry StOddard to add emphasis TO
his conversation when literary Cxigen-
cies seem to require it. His brilliant wife.
Elizabeth. has conscientiously 'blue-pen-
ciled'' BIN for many years. One night
several men of intellectual caliber and
irregular habits dropped into Dir. Stod-
ards to have chat. 1t was very late,
and Mrs. StOddard had retired. The Wis
itors talked and smoked and talked
again, until somewhere around . o'clock
in the morning they began to feel hun
CRY. None of the household but Mr.
Stoddard was III. and it devoyed upon
him to find something to eat.
After a search the only thing he found
was can of Sardines. He stood in the
library, still talking with the assembled
two or three and trying to pry open the
tin box with his pOcketknife. The opera
ton was not as successful as he, wished,
and while he talked he paused to express
his feelings. The conversation was pro-
crossing somewhat after this fashion:
Il thought on that OCCASION blankety-
hlank-blank- blank)-if he had only
