Roy smith, of Ohio, Joins the Navy
md Beyyafls the Fact That He Has
No sweetheart.
-Four years is a long time to be
AWAY at sea- said Roy Smith, of Bell
aire, Ohio, after he had been accepted
by Lieutenant C. B. Morgan, of the
local naval recruiting station to-day.
Smith was one of six fortunate appli-
cants Out of nine that applied to join
THE United States navy to-day. lie dld
net make the above statement exactly
to Lieutenant Morgan, but he confided
in one of the applicants who had been
retected-a young fellow who stutter-
ed, says the Pittsburg Leader.
Indeed four years is a bit OF a
stretch" replied the stutterer with
great effort, and then Smith wanted
to know if his new acquaintance did
not know some mice girls"
Il know a whole raft of fellows l
could write to, but none of them are
any good. / don't know a single lady.
Can't you help a fellow out a bit?'
The suffering friend advised Smith
to communicate his troubles to Mayor
Diehl. 1.-The mayor of this town used
to run a matrimonial agency" said the
sufferer.
Smith left the Federal building VOW
ing to take the advice. In the mean
time, any young ladies wishing to cor
respond with Smith can secure the
name of the ship to which he will be
consigned by addressing Lieutenant
MORGAN. U. S. n, Federal building,

Cure OF PLEA
A person contracts . cold, pneu-
monia. rheumatism and pleurisy
from exposure; dyspepsia and liv-
er troubles from dietary errors
and the causes Of most diseases are
easily traceable. but although piles
and rectal troubles are as common
as any of these, the cause is OBJ
scure.
Violent exertion, as in lifting,
sometimes, produces them and Sc
dentary occupation is by some
supposed to be a predispoSing
cause, but as "a rule piles and rec
tai troubles appear without appar-
ent provOcation.
There are many pile salves n
ointments which give temporary
relief and when these fail the pa
tient, if he can afford the expense
and is willing to take the risk,
has recourse to a surgical opera
ton. But there is one remedy
which gives immediate relief and
the regular use of which will bring
about a permanent cure and that
is the well known Pyramid Plie
Cure.
In long standing cases the Pyra-
mid has proven to be the only
cure except q dangerous and ex-
ceedingly painful surgical opera
ton, and its advantages over any
kind of operation r many, as II
Is painless, causes no fnter1er-
ence with daily occupation, and
being in the form of a supposltory
is always convenient and ready for
use.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is an Ell
fective combination of soothing
oils and ~antiseptic acids. 1t con-
tains no cocaine nor nerve de-
stroying opiates and unlike most
pile salyes, contains no bi-chlorloe
of mercury nor any injurious drug
of any kind.
All druggists sell the Pyramid
Pile Cure at 50 cents for a complete
treatment Of the suppositomes.
A little book on cause and cure
OF piles will be mailed T by
addressing pyramid Drug Co., Mar
shall, Mich.

John g. Wnolleyss Aisto.Frophetis
Inaugural Address Wa Read-A
Fine Mnsical and Literary ro-
gramme Rendered.
There was an interesting meeting at
the W. C. 7. q. headquarters on Market
street last evening, the exercises being
in the nature of a histo-prophetic in
auguration OF John G. Woolley. who
was the Prohibitionist's nominee for
President at the last election, and
quite a number OF the temperance
workers Of Wheeling and vicinity were
present. The most important feature
Of the programme was the reading OF
a copy of Mr.. Woolley's address upon
the subject Triumph of Righteous
ness" expressing his inaugural ideas,
and which he would have delivered
for historical record and not ictitiously
had he been elected. Copies of the
address, which were sent out in ad-
vance to all the temperance organiza-
lions in the country, were read
at their meetings last evening.
The Introductory clause of the adj
dress, which advocated among other
things that temperance be made a ma
tional question, was as follows:
"FellowC itizens-The National Chair
man of the Prohibition party asks me
for this n evening-in my mind
to assume the honor of President-elect,
and to deliver an inaugural address.
On second thought the plan is not sur
prising. l was, in fact, within a mere
particle of the presidency. II the good
voters of the United States had held
themselves up to their own high STAN
dards, this speech would become his
tory and not fiction. l was beaten by
a conjunction"

Miss Virginia Hall also favored the
audience with a pleasing social solo.
Mr.. McCuskey, of McMechen, took up
a collection which amounted to over
$40 and this sum will be added to the
general fund for conducting an educa-
tional campaign in behalf of the tenn
perance cause.
Another feature Of the meeting was
the announcement that a meeting
would be held at the headquarters next
Monday for the purpose of organizing
a temperance club and nine names
were secured for membership.

The report of the superintendent Of
the County Infirmary showed cash re-
ceipts for the month Of S152.S5, and
101 inmates.
The reports of poor commissioners
in washington, Clay and Union dis

contained recommendations as to the
amount of county aid to be extended
in their respective districts.
Mr.. Adolph Fritz offered a motion
that the Board take charge of the
Peninsula road, to be controlled by
Mr.. Downs, who was recently chosen
as superintendent of the first division
of the National Road. This was neces-
STATED by the misunderstanding be-
tween the city and county concerning
the road, which leads to Fulton, and
lies within the city limits. Mr.. Bow
man, however, was of the opinion that
the Board should spend whatever mon
ey it has for that purpose, upon the
National Road, which goes over the
hill and connects with Market street
above Seventh. He embodied his
views in an amendment to Mr.. Fritz's
motion, which was defeated. The orig
inal motion was adopted, and the road
was turned over to Mr.. Banner, OF
Washington district.
Mr.. Gutman offered a resolution d.
recting the Prosecuting Attorney to in
quire into the legality of the State law
abolishing tolls, as affecting the Ma
tional Road. This highway was form
erly owned by the National Govern
ment, but was turned over to the State
and in 1892 was turned over by the
State to Ohio county. When the Board
took the road, it assumed an indebted
ness of sc 5000, which the State would
not pay, hence the disposition to COM
plain against the State undertaking to
abolish tolls upon a road over which
there is question whether the State
has any Jurisdiction. All these facts
were brought out in the discussion up
on Mr.. Gutman's motion.
Mr.. Gutman said it was his desire to
enable the Board to carry out it's plans
for the improvement Of the road. 1t
was the intention to pave that thor
oughfare from Futon to Elm Grove,
hut of course that plan could MOI be
carried out if tolls were abolished.
Mr.. GutmEan's resolution was adopt
ed.
