United States Band.

United States Band.
There is a possibility that the famous
United States Band, under the direction
of Mr. Phinney, may be engaged for the
entire week of the Carnival. 1t is a
question of funds. The executive COM
mittee took the matter up yesterday
afternoon with representative Of the
band, but deferred action until next
wednesday night, when the executive
committee will meet jointly with the
fund committee. This band, then
known as the Iowa State band, opened
the West Virginia building at the
Worlds Fair. 1t has been engaged for
the entire month of August at the Pan
American Exposition in Buffalo Dur-
ing the week before the Carnival, the
band will play in Parkersburg, and the
Carnival dates are open, so that they
made lower offer than usual,
and it will be accepted if the COMMITTEES
can see its way clear to providing the
funds. The band consists of thirty
two pieces, and gives a spectacular fire
works display in connection with its
concerts each night

Parade Routes.

Mr.. Benson made tour Of the bust
ness district yesterday getting possible
locations for entertainers and routes
for parades. He has men out measur-
ing wires, turns and streets to find the
most practical route for the Rex night
parade. Thursday has been selected as
press day, but 1t now seems that the
Press will have to be entertained
through some society or other special
force, as the Carnival headquarters
deem it inadvisable to undertake spe-
cial spread for so many.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1901-06-19

The Carnival buttons are going like
wildflre. The committee are selling
these at five cents each, hoping to sell
enough in this way to Offset the ex-
pense, and the balance will be given
away in neighboring towns. In a very
few days the whole territory around
Wheeling will be prepared to "Roll
round week in square town."

In the matter of accommodations dur
ing Carnival week, while the people are
a little slow about taking Carnival
boarders, and accommodations for
those wishing permanent stopping
place are not easily obtained, Mr.. Ben
son considers this result of the desire
to have every available room vacant
ticpate a great business and good prices
during that week. At the headquarters
a great number of rooms have been reg
istered and there is no doubt we will
be able to care for many people.

that we need new markets abroad
and that we can only get them by
making concessions to those who
need our goods. The president
has always favored commercial
reciprocity and says SO plainly.
We produce more than we use and
markets abroad are necessary for
us in order that the surplus can
be disposed of. If our Demo

Anxious to Get Rid of Him.
Special to The State.

Special to The State.
GreenvilIc, June S.-The in
dictment of Pink Tollersou upon
the charge of burglary and larceny
resulted in his conviction, and the
court sentenced him to seven year 8
IN the penitentiary at hard labor
Tollerson was concerned in the
robbery of the company store at
the Poe mill on Christmas eve,
and the quantity of goods stolen
showed he was not alone in max
ing the raid, but the other fellows
have not been captured, and Toll
erson had to 90 it alone in the
trial. The notable feature in the
case was the testimony of Madame
Tollerson, whose evidence alone
convicted the defendant and who
proclaimed her anxiety to have
him incarcerated indefinitely. She
was notified by the court that she
was not compelled under the law
to testify against her husband,
but she promptly waived her rights
in the premises and evidenced a
readiness hat is unusual to convict
him. Senator Dean asked her
whether she was not desirous.
for reasons unnecessary to men
tion then and there, to get rid
of her husband, and her answer
was, 81 shure am,' and that she
wanted him safely ffeused for an
indefinite period. Her testimony
was to the effect that Tollerson
came home drunk, and that be
brought a large quantity of goods
with him, which were described
and identified as the goods stolen.
