The latter in a conversation said he wan the heaviest creditor notwithstanding the report that he had taken in. the greater portion of the proceeds of the benetlt at the Metropolitan Opera house last month.

I will net take the least interest In the management as reported. amM would not do ? > if I were offered. My relations with Mr. Abbey are si 111 Uie most friendly ones. %Sir Augustus fjarris, the convent garden impressario, is doing his very best to secure a Contract for tipNew York Opera.

Usually wool takes a Jump In quotations at this time of the year, but .the situation this spring Is so bad that there is no demand for the staple comparatively speaking, and so there is not the muni nilvntiro As th<* new rlln III ninv due, a few worda In regard to the situation in the eastern marts are timely. The seaport market continues to be ex-, tremely dull, as it has been for some time. Sales are few and being made at a sacrifice. The outlook Is anything but promising, for tho reason that fully one-half of the woolen factories of the country are now Idle. In this section there Is. very little wool being sold, the efforts' made by buyers being not nearly so determined as In former years. This Is true becauHc there seefhs but a very slight possibility of profit in wool transactions. Last year promises were held out that there would be an Improvement this spring, but tho promise remains unfulfilled, principally because uu i hi: grcui ciuinii iiiuuui a*. mivia have their factories and warehouses filled with both the raw material and manufactured stuffs. Even should the Republicans succeed next November, an improvement winnot be looked for Immediately upon the passage of protective legislation. Aside from the lame stocks of manufactures of wool and of raw material as well, there will be a rush of foreign wool and woolen manufactures into this country immediately after the election, If the Republicans succeed, so as to come In under a tariff favorable to importation. With all this to dispose of, it will take possibly two years to bring the American market <o its normal condition and prices to a protective basis. Notwithstanding the fact ttyat the clip of 1896 is fully forty per cent less than usual there is fully twice as much stock of wool and woolen manufactures as ever before in the history of the American wool market. THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY Of the United Prmbytrrlan Church at Xen ta?Wheel lug Delegates Leave this Mornluir.

I ? fHOUS 4* "HUNGRY AS A HUNTER." That Is the condition of those, at meal ttof, 'Illative organs an? performing their natural and healthful functions. But on the other hand suppose their appetites are rendered capricious by the taunts of dyspepsia. Nerves, blood, muscle and?brain may demand ever bo much of the tlssuobullding and energizing properties of food, but the stomach bus no power to prepare them for the system. Millions of thin, palo and worried looking people remember the delusive hopes of recovery they were led to indulge In by the brpad claims of some patent cure-all and bow their air castles ended In disappointment. Something to relieve the enfeebled digestive organs Is what most dyspeptics require. This Is wonderfully well done by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, the most perfect remedy known; simply a scientific certainty. Simply performs the digestive operation while the diseased organs rest and recuperate, soon enabling the stomach to properly digest the strongest foods. Then the patient may follow the dictates of appetite without danger. In all cas.*s of stomach trouble nature needs help, not stimulants. This Is the common sense way ??i! uiiPOMKfni nhvslebuiB treat such troubles.

The second oratoril*al contest between the Martin's Kerry and Bellaire public schools was. held at the Bellaire oj>era house last night before an audience that well filled the theatre. The programme was the same as rendered at Martin's Ferry, except that Miss Ida Caufield rendered a pleasing oration on the "Improvement of our Navy." A largtt crowd of Martin's Ferry folks were present and enjoyed the excellent mimic that interspersed the orations. The decision of the judges was In favor of Bellaire by three points, and as that town took first honors In the former contest at Martin's Ferry, the question of supremacy is settled in their favor.
