SPRING CLOTHING-M. GUTMAN & CO. Costs no more than a There is nothing saved by buying badly fitting clothes. It takes just as long to cut and sew a coat that's too wide or too tight, or a pair of pants with bulging knees as though they fit perfectly. Hence why not buy perfect-fitting clothing, or to be more specific why not BUY YOUR CLOTHING AT THE OLD RELIABLE, Where an experience of thirty years lias reduced the making of clothing to a science that knows no misfits. Immense as is Gutman's new Spring Stock there isn't a bungling garment in it. Some are finer than others, but whether a suit cost J?5 or $20 IT FITS. MARVELS IH BOYS' CLOTHING..

Tho cominitteo on claims considered thj claims of Messrs.

Tho commltteo on real estato had un- I der consideration tho loaso to Mrs. Rip loy ol tho lot adjoining the old Powilcy depot, which is wantod by tho railroad company as a part of tho site of the now station. Tho city solicitor offered a res olution abrogating tho lease, which tho committee agreed to recommend to council f6r passage. Tho railroad com pany is required to indemnity tho city for any damages or claims resulting from this action. Council was asked to appropriate $300 for an abstract of all real estato owned by the city. 1 EXCURSIONS TO WHEELING To be Ituu Under tho Au*plcng ot a Novel | Sort of Organization. Mention was made a few daya ago of 1 the organization of a company in this city, for tho purpose of booming tho town in a novel way, and bring to tho city a largo number of buyers from tho surrounding towns, who havo hereto fore traded in other cities. The com pany is at last completo and will bo known as tho Ohio Valley Excursion | and Improvement Company. The com pany is compo3ed oi about a dozen I prominent business men who have banded themselves together to executo an idea that will undoubtedly provo a winner. It is tho intention of the now organi zation to run excursions from tho various towns within ono hundred miles of tho city.onco a month, offerim* as an inducement, besido a low rate round trip fare, special salo prices at the different etorea owned by tho mem bers of tho company. An eight pJiro paper will bo printed nnd widely dis tributed in all tho towns around, con taining tho advertisements of tho com pany, nud coupons, which will cntitlo the holdor to the special excursion rate | and to tho special sale. Each railroad will havo a day of its 1 own, ond the excursions will "be run overy second day, until all the ten dif ferent branches have been gone over. The date of tho Grot excursion has not | been set, but it will bo in all probabili ty bo in tho socond week of May. The company aalectod as its secretary I M. II. MeKabb, who will havo charge of tho paper and see that they are destri buted property along tho road. THE AMERICANS WIN. Great Oratorical Contest Last Night at Old j ltcthany. Thcro has been a rivalry of long J standing botweon tho American and { j Neotrophian societies at old Bethany I college, and heretofore all efforts to 1 I bring the two together in a friendly contost of oratory have signally failed. A few weeks ago, however, the "back ers" of each got together and Biirned | articles of agreement for "a fight of words to a finish." Last evening at tho chapel hall the contest took place, and attracted friends of the two societiee in lurce numbers, as well as people from neighboring towns. Colcnel W. \V. Arnott and Rov. Dr. \Y. II. Cooke, of this city, and Rev. Br. Robert Alexander, of St. Clairsville, woro chosen as judges. Colonel Arnett was dolegatod by tho others to deliver their judgment, which was in favor of the Americans. Tho verdict waa of course rccoiveu with great enthusiasm by tho followers^ of tho A. L. I. Tho orators were as follows: Harry W.Kitn mel, ot Pennsylvania,on "Tho Ameri can Idea;" W. R. Jinnett, of Ohio, "Blue and Gray;" Charlos IJnrsio, of Kentucky, on "William tho Silent;" all for tho Keotrophians. Tho A. I* I.jntorosts wore taken caro of by Allen AVilson, of Colorado, whose subject was "Truth," W. B. Cunning ham. of Pennsylvania, on "Tho Domi nant Cause," and Eavlo Wilfley, of Mis souri, who concluded with a createilort, his subject being "Lot There bo Light." Tho contest clearly shows that oratory is not on tho wano in tho old college that has iurnished a Bickham, a Pen dleton, a Woolery and a Cr.mpbell. CEIiEERATED WINES.
