There are two or three wife beaters in this place whose conduct in that regard is becoming notorious. There should be no place in St Clairsville for such people and a person who pleads for leniency in their behalf must have some pressing private reason for such a plea. Eleven car-loads of pottery workers from East Liverpool are to participate in the great McKinley-Blaine demonstration at Canton next Saturday.

Orders were received on Sunday by the workmen employed in repairing the St Clairsville branch of the B. and to discontinue work on the road until further orders. About sixty men were at work and would have put the road in running order within a few days if they had not been called off. It is possible that the B.

aud O. authorities contemplate making some changes in the road bed, which will render it less liable to be washed out by every freshet There is one thing evident that the cost of inain-tai nance of that line must be reduced, if owners hope to realize any profits from operating it THE YOUNG PEOPLES' SOCIETY.

IO-23-3t A few Democrats from Belmont and Harrison counties, calling themselves a Convention, met for the third time on Friday, at Flushing to nominate a Mem ber of the State Board of Equalization But three delegates of the 16 from Belmont and probably twice that number from Harrison were present. The dele gations were filled so to speak, and the Convention went on as though it repre sented the Democracy. On the first allot A. P. Blair received 8 votes and imes V.

Ritchie 8 from the Belmont delegation. Harrison county voted 16 votes for John ConwelL On the second ballot two of Belmont votes went to Conwell, thus securing his nomination which was made unanimous for the sake or narmony. uol John Conwell is a citizen of Cadiz, and is not unknown in the district, he having made a losing race for State Senator once npon a time. Mrs. Etta Bliss, wife of Chas.

Bliss, died at the home of her mother, in Kirkwood, on Wednesday, of last week, from consumption, in the 27th year of her age. Deceased was the daughter of the late John W. McFarland, and had many excellent qualities of heart and mind. A husband aud two little boys and numerous relatives are bereft by her death. The funeral occurred on Henthorue conducting the services.

The remains were brought to this place by rail, and taken to Morristowu by Undertaker B. R. Johnston, for inter ment. Women's Shoes. Oil Grain, Calf, Buff, Dongola, Curoco, and French Kidd; Gum Hoots and Shoes; the best in the market JEPSON PATTON.

The Bellaire Indepemlent says the farmers of Mead township are complaining about the way the railroads are interfering with the county roads. They are justifiable in making complaint where their roads are occupied by corporations, unless' equal facilities for travel over other routes are afforded. County Commissioners are apt to be entirely too liberal in granting the use of the public highways. It should be recollected that they belong to the people. The big bridge across the Ohio between Martin's Ferry and Wheeling.own-ed by the Union Bridge and Terminal Company, which has just been completed, is said to be the longest continuous truss-bridge in America.

It is a double track railroad and foot bridge. The channel span, 250 feet in length, is the third longest span in the world. The bridge, including approaches, right of way, and two tunnels, cost about 88,000,000. It is a magnificent piece of work, reflecting credit upon those who erected it. Republicans who want Peter Giffen, a gallant Union Veteran, who has shown himself especially fitted for the responsible position of Superintendent of the Children's Home, of this county removed from that position, will vote forMcComas for Commissioner.

The Democrats are making a big effort to elect another Commissioner, so as to control the Board and turn our benevolent county institutions over to some of their hungry office-seeking cormorants. The sky is worth looking at these evenings. Venus, Jupiter, and the crescent moon, all pretty close together near the southern and southwestern horizon. Venus retires early, but the other three will spend the evening, and a very entertaining and brilliant trio they are, too. Jupiter and Mars have been approaching each other rapidly for some time.

Mars going ahead and Jupiter retrograding, and they are now close enough together to render comparison easy. Judge John B. Duic.Gs.of Woodsfield, was nominated last week by the Democrats of his district for Circuit Judge of the 4th Circuit of Ohio. The district gave over 1,600 Republican majority last year, so that there is not much probability of this judicial sub-division having an opportunity to get out of the claws of the Monroe office-seeking vultures through this channel. Wm.

Gibson, a boy fifteen years of age, had his coat caught in the wheel of the rail straightener at Mills, on Monday, and his body was carried around before he was extricated. His head was badly cut and he was otherwise bruised, but was fortunate in escaping death. PERSONAL MENTION. of W. H.

Kinney and family will re move to Belmont this week and occupy the Foulke property in that town. The Poorman-Weems meeting in the new Hall, Flushing, on Tuesday night, was a big success. The speeches were received with marked signs of approval Col. Poorman, our candidate for Con gress, meeting with an ovation at the close of the speaking. Protection and 'oortnan should be heard all along the te publican lines until the polls close November 4.

Mrs. Sloan, widow of John Sloan, ex-Auditor of Harrison county, died at her home, Moorelield, Ohio, on Saturday night, of inflammation of the stomach. She was out to a funeral on the Monday previous, apparently in her usual health. An exchange tells of a man who is so superstitious that be will not pay any debts on Monday. There are plenty of people who will not pay debts on any day of the week they are continually opposed to paying what they owe.

Judge Driggs who is a candidate for Circuit Judge, adjourned court yesterday until November 5, to go on an electioneering tour. The Grand Jury has to stop business and go home on account of the adjournment Messrs Close Longley have just erected in the Union Cemetery a fine monument of Westerly granite at the tomb of Mrs. Merriman, mother of ex-Judge St Clair Kelly.

A pleasant wedding occurred at the residence of Mr. Thomas Gilham, near Flushing, on Wednesday of last week.the contracting parties being his daughter, Miss Alwilda M. Gilham, and Mr.
