/ WOMEN RUNNING TT" The Main Features of the Moundsvllle Assembly in Their Hands. BUT TWO ABLE ADDRESSES BY MEN Bound Oat a Varied and Attractive Programme on the Seventh Daj? The Quartette as Popular aa Ever? A Reformed Bad Man. The seventh day of the prohibition meetings at the Assembly hall, at Moundsville, opened with the weather clear, cool and bright. In the forenoon the Woman's Christian Temperance Union beaded the programme, and Mrs. Jennie Sisson, Miss Jennie McClurkin and Miss Lyda J. Kewcomb gave some pleasing and appropriate talks, which u? .? nuiu lununcu. uj OAOtciBCO iu jnijaivui culture, under the direction of Miss >"ewcomb. These exercises are in bigb favor with the cottagers on the camp ground, and many of them go through the exercises with an earnestness and exertion that brings a ruddy color (o the cheeks. It was amusing the other day to see Colonel llain, Dr. Gushing and Rev. Mr. Lynch going through these exercises. They bobbed their heads, struck out with their fists and skippod around in good style, only Mr. Lynch always had his head going the wrong way and Cononel Bain almost fell several time when trying to strike the floor with his bands without bending his logs. He was'just a little too ituf at first, but lie hud perseverance and got'there finally with considerable grace. Yesterday morning Miss Newcomb usod tho Indian clubs, and the strength and grace of movement exhibited wore greatly admired. By request she will repeat tho exercise with the clubs this morning. When Miss Newcomb's time was up, E. C. Dinwiddie, of Ohio, was again introduced. Mr. ilinwiddio's subject was "Tho Relation of Prohibition to Labor and the Business Intorcsts of the Country." He spoke from notes, and followed them closely, and is a careful, precise speaker. One was hardly conscious that he used his notes at all. THE I'KOPLK NEVER TIRE Of the Silver Lake Quartette, and they sing most in the morning. The quartette opened the afternoon meeting by singing "The Temperance Cause is Kolling On," and after prayer by Rev. Mr. Meade, sane "We Conquer or Die." Mr. M. V. Bennett, of Kansas, was on the programme for the afternoon, but when the hour to commence arrived he had not put in on appearance, and Rov. Anna Snaiv, of Illinois, who was to speak in the evening, was substituted. Mr. Bennett came in when Miss Shaw had spoken about a half hour, and when sho concluded, was introduced and mado a short address. Miss Shaw is said to be the only regularly ordained woman minister in the country. She has a pleasant face, is of stout figure, and fully filled her recommendation as an able'spcaker. She said her subject was "The Fate of Republics." not of Republicans, for sho oeuevea timt wua now oemi; suiuvu. The question is often naked whether or not a republic is a form of government that can long continue. What historians tell us of the past is that tho largest republics lived tho shortest. The oldest republic in existence to-day is 1,500 years old. It is the only real republic in tho world. It has only thirty men in its standing army, and is situated in the Alpine mountains. Looking at our own republic to-day we see in it elements of decay. It is poliP ically corrupt; through political intrigue corrupt public oliiccrs a/e chosen, and every influence freely used to corrupt and bribe tho people to gain political ends. There is n marked and growing class distinction which docs not belong to our form of government?a class distinction recognized by otir public officers and servants in exercising their office. A OOOD POINT. ' She said she would rather attend a political meeting than to go any where else, except to a goou oiu-iasnioneu Methodist meeting. She hud listened to speeches from both Republican and Democratic spoakers frequently, and they all come under four heads?salt, pig-iron, lumber and wool. They never suggested the ideas or possibility of boys or girls. Now, whnt we women desire, is that tlioy be protected by the law. But it is natural that men's thoughts should run in that direction. By nature men are the providers: what ho docs is to provide the material for sustaining life. But there is still work to he done In government which is not provided for in man. There comes into the home and government another factor?the female factor. It requires the two in every home to make a home. A man can build a House, ana m u up wim lurnnuro and fill it with' provisions, but ho can't make it a homo. It taken u woman to make n home. You can't havo a government without women any more than you con have a home without hor. We believe in men, and believe they have done the best they could. Wherein lies the troubio? Is it in the form of government, or ia it in the fault of those who have it in hands. We beliovo this is the best government. But it is the best only when the majority is right "Why then have wo not the best government? The trouble is that the people have conceived an idea that it is masculine in its nature. Government has as much to do with women as men. Thoy are subject just the same to its laws as tho men; The whole difficulty with every republic of tho past?anil with this?is that their principles said one thing and the peoplo acted another. This government is iw a government of taxation without representation. It is not a country where the voice of the l- . i. ?t n~.i I'vujuc ib uiu ?uikc vjt uw, no ia |iu|?ulnrly said. It is u lone time since Gad's voico has been heard in this land. Women possess qualities which are needed in the government, and which men do not possess. Women are more moral than men. Women are more temperate than men. Vet you put the ballot in the hands of the brewer and the saloonkeeper and have breweries and saloons, and keep it from the women. That may be good statesmanship, but it is not good common sense. In the evening M. V. B. Bennett spoke to about 1,000 persons. lie -gavu a general prohibition talk. Mr. llennett is rather a small, slender mnn, a rapid talker, and full of earnestness. He said he was formerly a whisky drinker, an infidel, a Sabbath-breaker, a card plavor, a liar and a Democrat "Queen Either" to be Rendered. Tho popular cantata of "Queen Esther" wili be given for tho purpose of raising funds toward paying for the Young People's Temple, to bo erected on the MouuUville Assembly grounds, H Mrf BUfJ and now nnder contract The performance will be given in Anemblv Hall July 16,17 ana 1ft, lira.

THE IMMENSE FREIGHT TONNAGE And It* Character-Point Pleasant as a Coal Shipping Point?Improvement* of the Rivers and What They Have Cost So Far. The government has Just issued as a bulletin the article on "Transportation on the Ohio River and its Tributaries Above Cincinnati" prepared by Henry C. Adams for the census reports. A part of tho information it contains has already ueen pnnieu in m? icicgrapu columns of the Inteluoexckr, but there is a good deal of local interest It is stated that theMonongahela, Allegheny, Muskingum, Little Kanawha, Great Kanawha and Big Sandy, during the year 1880, which was exceptionally favorable for traffic on these waters, were navigable for twelve months, with the exception of the Muskingum, Big Sandy and Allegheny, which were only navigable for about six months of the year. The improvements on the Ohio river have been carried on by appropriations from the federal government. The most important of these are the Davis Island dam, by which slack water is forced bark to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, nnd the Louisville and Portland canal, around the falls at Louisville. The total appropriations for all improvements on the Ohio river were ?0,05(5,470, which shows on expenditure of $5,229 per mile of navigablo route. It should bo noted that these appropriations are applied to improvements both above ana below Cincinnati, although the freight statistics of this bulletin are given exclusively for thiit portion of the Ohio river above Cincinnati. the m oxoxo ati ela. Improvements on the Monongnhela river began in 1840. Up to that time the federal government had not made any appropriations for this purpose, and works wore undertaken by a corporation, which is still in existence. This corporation owns at the present time a series of seven locks and dams, which carry slack water from Pittsburgh to Geneva, Pennsylvania, a distance of 85 miles. Qi 18*72 the federal government undertook the improvement of the rivor above Geneva and IUJ I IUM JllltlJjUHl'll IV West Virginia, .a distance of 17 miles. The total cost of improvements on the Monongahela river was $2,283,830, of which $377,552 were expended by the United States government and $i,lKXt,284 by the corporation. The four lower dams* belonging to the corporation are Srovided with locks measuring 220 by J feet, nnd it is from the wools formed by these dams that the bulk of the coal moved down the Ohio river is shipped. THE TWO KAXAWHAS. Tho Great Kanawha river, which reaches the Ohio at Point Pleasant, 20J5 miles above Cincinnati, is the principal competitor of the Monongahela for the coal trade oh tho lower Ohio. The federal government made its first appropriation for the improvement of this river in 187.'], since which* time it has expended $l,97t?,203 and completed five locks and dams, measuring 300 by 50 feet. The Little Kanawha river, which has a total length of about 150 miles, has been improved for steam navigation up to Burning .Springs, forty miles from its juncture with the Ohio." The improvements consist of a series of four locks and dams, the property of tho corporation, which carry slack-water navigation to the point above named. The general government lias undertaken improvements above Burning Springs. " hinli will ATtAnd nnvirmtinn fwclvp miles farther up the river. The Big Sanely river is, strictly sneaking, but twenty-six miles in length, extending from Catlettsburg, on the Ohio, to Louisa, Kv., but taken in connection with its principal tributary, the Lovisa, it provides 110 miles adapted for the navigation of steamboats of light draught during six months of the year. The Big .Sandy river and its tributaries are mostly used for rafting timber, but push boats, long, narrow boats of ten or fiftoen tons capacity, are extensively employed. Theexpenditures for the improvement of this river, all of which wero made by the federal Government, were $242,21)8, equivalent to $2,203 per mile of navigable route. TItAFKIC OS THE OIIIO. The Ohio river above Cincinnati is credited with 713 boats, of^ which 4(5 were passenger steamers, -u terry Boats, 03 towing steamers," 17 tugs, 9 miscellaneous and 511 barges.

On the Monougnhela river, for which a total shipment of 3,204,032 tons is reported, the shipments of coal and coke amount to 3,060,418 tons, of sand and stone to 08,357 tons, of iron ores to 35,5<i3 tons, of forest products to 81,200 tons, the remainder being unclassified freight. On the Allegheny river there were moved 275,681 tons of forest products, 80,750 tons of sand and stone, and 9,515 tons of unclassified freight. The movement of freight on the Muskingum river during the year covered by the investigation was very Blight, ninounting to 10,041 tons of general freight. On the Great Kanawha river, out of a total of 1,145,202 tons of freight moved, shipments of coal amount to $1,076,871 tons, ana shipments of forest products to 43.313 tons, the remainder boing un clossifled (ruight.

New York, July 9.?Kain fell in torrents about S:30 o'clock last evening, and the few pedestrians who were afoot on Third avenue, near Twenty-sixth street, sought more substantial shelter than their umbrellas aiforded, and went under the cover of the dark hallways. Twice it was noticed that a sfiort. stout man walked out into the street and stooped over a mnnhole. Every movement coulil be distinguished plainly by the electric liiiht 011 the cornor. .finch time the iAan arose, after bending over the manhole a moment, and marched back to the stormshed which protects the side entrance to .Sweeney's Hotel, on the southeast cornor. The men chatting in the dead shadows of the tenement house hallways commented upon the occurrences, but that was all. Then Mrs. Mary Kearns came out in tho storm and hurried along toward the corner grocery. When she was near the place she saw the man approach the manhole the third time. He stooped down and got a grip on the heavy iron cover, and after one or two efforts managed to raise" it. Then, straightening up, he ulanced quickly about him, threw his hands above his head, shouted "Here goos," in a k>ud voice, and dived head lirst down the manhole into the sewer. Mrs. Kearns screamed and the men in the doorways ran into the street. Some one fonnci a policeman, who ran to an adjacent fire engine house. Capt. Nu.rent and his men were just returning from tho Sixth avenue stablo fire. lhe captain grabbed u tmrty-nve-ioot rope ladder and Fireman Pearl adzed a life line and belt, and tho two started fur Twenty-sixth street with the officer. When they reached the spot a crowdhad collected, notwithstanding the storm. The uianholo was surrounded by people who were trying to peer ijrito it. The water could be heard rippling along fifteen' or twenty feet below. There is another manhole about 200 feet east of this one. and a crowd had also gathered around it A number of those in the crowd declared that they had distinctly heard tho groans of a man. Captain Nugent decided to begin the search from this noint. He fastened one end of the rope ladder to a wagon and Fireman Pearl started down into the sewer earning a lantern and a life belt, while Nugent stood guard over the 'manhole above. The moment Pearl reached the bottom ho found a hat. It j belonged to one of the excited spectators who had lost it while trying to look into the dark hole. The water was j about twelve inches deep and the current was glow. Pearl worked his way westward toward the manhole down which the man had jumped. Directly beneath it he found another hat. The atmosphere in the sewer was stilling and l'earl was forced to come out for air, and that ended the search for the night. GEBHARDT A PURCHASER.
