SHOOTING AFFRAY.
John Markus, or the Eighth Ward, Ke
celvee a Ball In the Back.
About eight o’clock last evening a seri
ous shooting affray occurred on Boggs ron,
mat below the Ohio conaty line, which re
sulted in John Markas, of No. 4235 Wood
street, receiving a bad wound.
A lot of Polish miners and mill men
procured a quantity of beer and stronger
drink, and congregating in the vicinity of
the coal tipple, just this side of the run,
they imbibed until they worked them
selves np into a very hilarious condition.
A number of misunderstandings was the
result, and a good deal of a racket was
raised during the early evening horns.
About - o’clock another row broke out
and things began to be lively. Jast how
it happened could not be ascertained, be
cause of the terrible jargon spoken by
many of those present, bnt in the midst of
the melee Michael Sonnefelt drew a revol
ver and shot John Markas, aged 17, just
under the right collar bone. The ball was
from a .38 calibre revolver, and the result
ing wound was a bad one. The boy was
taken to his home and Dr. Pipes called.
The ball was probed for, but the physician
was unable to hud it. It coaid Eot be
deSnirely stated last night, how serious
the wound was.
Newsol the shooting was sent to i>en
wood, and Marshal Seabright, of that
town, came np and arrested Bonnefelt, tak
ing him to Kenwood, where he was locked
np to await an examination.
Tne shooting created a good deal of ex
citement in the lower end of the Eighth
ward, when it became known.
I am of the opinion 3. S. S should stand
at the head of the list of blood remedies.
I arrived at this conclusion from the testi

has won a large sale.

II Should Be Looked Into.
Ti tV Editor ot the RtguUr:
1 am informed that unite a nnmber ot
pereous have places in Ohio county which
they wish to sell to the State tor Reform
School n*e. It is hinted that a preference
seems to be entertained for the Kimberly
place, near Mt. de Chautal. I i now that
the authorities ot that school, (he meters
in charge and m*ny influential Catholics
deprecate the locating ot any such reform
establishment so near iheer great academy.
There is no good reason why they views
should not be respected, and 1 bei'eve the
Commission will give the matter dnecon

"THREAT CROWD
OATH8KBI) AT TUB MOUND3V1I.LB CAMP
GBOUNDS, YB3TBBDAY.
The Serv;' es Doring the Diy Well Attended—A
Powerful Sermon by B; hop Joyce at the
Morning Service.
The attendance on the campground yes
terday—the last day of the meeting—was
larger by a considerable percentage than
on the previous Sunday. There was a
slight falling ofl' in the attendance from
the surrounding country, bnt this was
much more than compensated for by the
increased crowds broogbt on the railroads.
The order maintained waa excellent.
The early morning meeting was led by
Dr. Hitler, and far exceeded in earnestness
anything yet heard on the gronnds. The
number of persons who had been in the
Master’s service over forty years was
somewhat remarkable, and the general
hand shading and testimonies following
were of the most interesting character.
Judge Woods, of I'hilippi, was a prominent
fignre in the meeting. Mrs. Kllitritz, of
Wheeling, the first convert of the camp
gronnds, forty-three years ago, gave her
experience. It was a good meeting,
and in many respects its ei|nal has not
been seen on the grounds.
Bishop Joyce preached a powerful
sermon. He said he had come here ten
days ago with tbs intention of leaving in a
few days, bnt he had been induced to re
main the whole time. There are farmers
here who have come ten or fifteen miles to
this service. A man, who cornea that dis
tance to church, comes to hear. This is
the last sermon I will preach, my seventh
sermon here. I came a stranger to every
body and have bteu cordially received and
have a hearty appreciation of your kind
ness. And I wish to thank yonr reporters
for the way they have treated me in re
porting my sermons. God can make a
newspaper report of a sermon some good
to ihe poor heart that cannot
go to the services, and may
be that something said by you,
repeated after the things we have said,
may carry some good to the troubled
heart. God bless yon all, and God bless
the reporters and newspapers.
He selected for his topic, “Obeying or
ders and reaching results,” from the text,
Lnke v:4: “New when he had left speak
ing he said unto Simon: haunch ont into
the deep and let down yonr nets for a
draught.”
He said: It is not an easy thing to ex
plain how it is that words so wonderfully
mdaeuce minds, nor is it an ea-y task to
explain how it is that one mind under cer
tain circumstances can influence another
mind. A rumor had been abroad that
there was a stranger among the people
aud said things that to other man had
said, did not look and act like other meD,
and he began to be listened to by men
Humors of His wonderful act spread abroad
now He is down by the Lakeot Genesareth
and an immense crowd gathered around
Him. He is only a plain man bnt when He
talks the mercy of God and the people
hunger after righteousness. He says the
word of God is a book of so many words of
such and snch import. The word is not a
volniun, it is a system, not phraeeology,
bnt ideas. Men are only agents to read to
men what God wants them to understand,
l’rinc'ples are the things that educate the
mind, the forces that aflftci the
mind and conscience, bnt yon
can’t see them. Words are enps for ideas,
and God puts ideas into the words. I take
the ideas or the subetauce of them from
my brain. God does the best he can with
the material He has on hand. If God
conld get a generation of followers ready
to start at His word He conld do wonders
I think God does exceedingly well when I
consider the kind of men He haa to work
with, i know as much hnman nature as
the averse man, oat 1 uon t oeueve oiw
oat of all this great audience would go
heart and eoul to work lor Christ. When
God wanted a nun lor a great movement
among the Germans He got Martin Luther
and headed and poshed him out with the
great doctrine and crowded him to the front,
little by little till soon the Christian world
stood beside Him. When God gets the
generation up beside of that man, it the
man is ready for another forward move
ment He puts him on. If he is not ready
God pushes some one else. Ood does not
educate man in moods, tears and excite
ment. Yon and I have apolagies tc make
to-day tor the in stakes we made yesterday.
When God cnce educates it is done for
Him. Principles don’t grow. God makes
them. Many men aie deceiving them
selves with this, that their opinions settle
things. A principle is a great force, it
is a great governing power. I can go
into the market and buy old opinions at
i'25 per carload, but no one cates for
them. Opinions may fit a boy,
bnt it takes principle to cover the broad
shoulders of a marching race. Now the
principles of this book are those that God has
employed to move the great mass of mind
forward. Men have horned this book and
scattered it? ideas to the winds oi heaven,
but its ideas remain. There is now a
building in this country where this bible
is printed in 200 dialects, and its ideas
spread around over the world. God’s
Son was a preacher. What a marvellous
preacher He was—one who never turns me
away. When I look into the face of this
marvellous preacher whose words have
come down thrpngh the ages for nineteen
hundred years, i leei my inability to stand
before an audience like this. 1 have au
idea that Christ was the most command
ing man in appearance that ever walked
on ths face ot the earth.
Tiitre waa more in the way He moved
among men. I have a great admiration
for raf n. I have seen some men, the mo
ment I saw them and knew them, I felt
like taking od my hat to them bnt I have
ntv“r seen a nun yet that had not some
tirg'of sin in bis blood: he is Effected in
soma way with this awinl shadow that
hangs over t'ua human race of the fall of
the first man made. Christ otands before
men without a tinge. He is aa clear as the
morning sunlight. There is something in
the tone of a man s voice. Po yon know
that tee way a man taias is a revela
tion the way we say a thing; the way we
do a thing, is a revelation of what we are.
Yea know the parable of the hundred
sheep, with the one that waa lost, but the
man did not whip and kick the lost one
back to the fold. (Jod don’t force men
into the kingdom oi heaven, bnt carries
him gently iu His arms of love.
Human nature is the same, whether be
hind a leather apron or under a crown,
whether it poshes a plane or handles a
sword. When I see a man staggering
along the street I say, thero goes J. W.
Joyce, bat for the grace of God when you
want to understand bnman nature look
into yonr own heart aud von will tied its
possibilities. I have often thought that
was a queer kind of a pulpit I have
often wondered if 8imon built or bought
that boat. He conld do almost anything.
He conld even do a good job of backsliding,
bat when he got wrpDg he was a splendid
hand in repenting. There are some preach
ers that think they are fitted for
great things. 1 know 3 preacher not
forty miles from here that has been
been tanging on to a bishop for four years to
get a pif.ee tonal to his abilities. Place
n^ver makes a man. tb? pian the place.
It is not where you are that measuresyoar
power. It is not piece but the mac
Yonder was Jerasalom with its wealth and
splendor, its Uuiple aud robed priests, bat
Christ prefer* this humble plage and a
fisherman's boat for His pulpit. Bnt hero
comes tbe crowd, for He fed them the
words of eternal life. No man can do
something until he is something. Doc
trine is the spinal column of Christianity
and to tonch it is to handle the doctrines
of Christianity. There is not a human be
ing from land to land, from age to age, the
bicod jof Christ will not cleanse.
At the close he asked the Christian
people to arise and fnlly 1,200 of the im-!
mense crowd arose ss one man professing
themselves possessed of some Christian
faith.
The children's service at 1:SO, being th?
las* attiacted much attention. About
forty-five children were baptized at its
close.
Dr. Cushing preached at 3 p. m., to a largo
congregation, from Jer. 13 23: “Can an
Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard
his spots ? Then may ye also do gowi that
are accnstomed to do evil,’’ taking for
hi* theme: Hahitntl sinning, its const
yuences. Can the black man change his
color? Yon all say no. Cau the iecptrd
change hie skin ? Yon say no And Jere
miah says that it is as impossible U r one
who lives persistently accustomed to do
evil to learn to do well. The emphasis is
on the word accnstomed to do evil year
after year. We are agreed that no adnlt
person who is accountable will ever be
saved without conversion. And no man
ever repents till by some means convinced
that sin is wrong; and men in time become
so accnstomed to their sins you can’t con
vince them are wrong. Men fo hardened
in their sins yon may as well talk to blocks
of wood. They will laugh at von.
The human mind is a wonderful thing,
and we know hat little; bat there are some
laws that are established, and one is that it
will go in the channels in which it is
familiar. This is true in whatever direc
tion it may tarn, and especially so in the
paths of sin it follows onconscionsly. And
there is another thought: When a man
gets to be old it is difficult for him to turn
in a new direction. The indeliblo im
pression made by its teachings most re
main forever. What is that mystermnB
faculty in oar natures by which onr ac
t oas perpetuate themselves, whether good
or bad? Whenever you do an act, yoa
are more likely to do it again, aud the
longer you continue the more likely yon
will be to repeat it over and over again.
This is true of swearing, drinking, or any
other evil habit. Every time yon repeat
an net, it strengthens yon in the direction
ot doing that very thing. The devil’sp >1
icy is to have you put off the offers of
mercy until he has yon safely in his
meshes.
The forces cf nature in this world are an
downward. When we throw a thing np
it comes down always. My f iends, yon
may die drifting to a peril, bat there is an
undertow of grace. Htrike out for it and it
will carry you into an ark of safety.
I leave these germs of thought with you
hoping they may carry you to eternal sal
vation.
At the close cf the service a communion
service was held by the Bishop and several
ministers and over three hundred persons
joined in the communion. This was the
most deeply impressive service of the day.
The night session attracted the largest
audience o! any meet'ng/luiing the season.
As a preliminary Bishop Joyce came to
the front of the platform and made an
earnest little address to the immense and:
ence. Among other things, he said:—
"I waut to start by saying I am in favor
of the ChnrcU using every instrumentality
God finds worthy ot being used. I am in
tavot ot the old ship /.’on carrying every
gun she can, and in favor of using those
gnna all they can bear. The devil nsee
every man, woman, child, newspaper and
everything of the rort to carry on hie
can°e. I am in favor of capturing every
good thing in this world to carry on the
war against the devil.
“Now, yen will hear it said once in a
while that preachers don’t h’lieve in evan
gelists. Don’t believe in evangelists, von
say! Then yon do not hjlieve iu the New
Testament. " That’s not gcod character,
nor clean religion—a ecul tilled with love
for eonls. They complained against me for
letting so many into my pnlpit. I let
everything in my pnlpit that coaid tire a
cartridge and bring down a sinner to God.
“I let Mr. lJarrison, Sam Jones, Sam
Small, Mrs. Robinson and others in during
my three years at Cincinnati, and during
that time l,t>50 people were converted at
the altar in Cincinnati. Now, enppose I
had pnt on my d'gniiy, stood by and
said, ‘I don’t believe in evangelists.’
Some oce may say. ‘If yon get those fel
lows hero you will lose yonr grip on the
crowd.’ Well, good-bye to grip. When
they were there the first night one of the
meet intelligent men in my congregation
said: ‘I won’t go.’ I said: ‘Stay at
bomp.' He went. He came to me and
said: ‘I waut 1o go home with yon—stay
all night with yon,’ and for three months
that roan never missed one service.
When Mrs. JCobmson was to come some
people tfcunght we were going to- tear np
things. I said ‘Tear up roots and all.’
“I was the tirst mau who ever brought
Sam Jones and Small north of the Ohio.
When I asked Sam to preach, everybody
else was afraid of him. He said if they
know I was a rebel, they wonld be afraid
of me. I said we are peaceable and gentle
men np here, and I want yon to come.
He was live months under my roof, in the
cbnrch. It is a notorious fact that no
evangelist every preached any heresy.
After sing ng, prayer and a solo by
Mr. EatOD, Dr. Hitler preached a powerful
sermon from Math, xxvii., 22: “What
shall 1 do with this Jesus which is called
Christ?”
There will bs services this morning at
8 o’clock, which will close the session.

The contract for the constrnction of the
Weston and Elk River Railroad, the let
ting of which has been noted by the
Ke<;isteb, ppocifies that the first ten miles
shall be completed by the first of April,
1890; the next five uii'es by the 15‘.h of
April, and the remaining distance by the
first day of May. The contract for the
grading of the remainder of the road from
Bnrnsville to Sntton will be let about the
15th of October, and it is to be completed
by July the first, 1890.
The president of the Ravenswoo3, .Spen
cer and Glenville railroad is authority for
the statement that if the right of way was !
secured for the road between Hpencer
and Ravenswood the contract for
building the same would be let in thirty
days. Unless the right of way is secured
soon no work will be done on the road
this fall and it may delay it indefinitely.
An order has been received at the Ches
apeake and Ohio shops, at Hnntingtou,
from headquarters, directing an additional
force of mechanics to be employed and the
working hoars increased to ten hoars per
day, insteod of eight hoars, as heretofore.
A 45xG5 feet store house is also ordered to
be built at once and the capacity of the
shops generally increased.
Concerning the new railroad to ba built
up the Monongahtla to MorgantowD, the
Valley Messenger, of Gilifornia, Pa., says:
“Tne McKeesport and Bellevernon rail
road is to bs pushed on op the river as
fiat as possible. The engineers are now
making the snrvey np the river above Belle
vernon, aud the road will keep the river
hillside until it reaches Redstone creek,
when it will go np the river to a point be
low Lynn’s mills, where it will pass
tbrongb the hill by tnnnel and come
in to Kreppa’ bottom at Brownsville. As
the tnnnel is to bs bnilt throngh an nn
used coal bank extending clear throngh
the hill, the work in regard to it will not
be very heavy. Leaving Kreops’ bottom
the road will run through Bridgeport hill
by another tnnnel and strike Bridgeport
at Center street, and then keep on np the
river bottom. After reaching Ball ran,
just above Lock No. 5, our informant says
that it has cot been definitely decided
whether the road will keep up the river or
go up Bull run and on that way to Mor
gantown, W. Va. Bare it is, however,
says onr informant, who should know what
be is talking about, that the road is to be
finished on np the river with all possible
speed.'1
ueo. w. ij Marsaea, wno is at meneia
of the proposed railroad from Koweltburg
to I'niontown, Pa., says:
“ The road is now surveyed from Bow
el sbnrg to within four miles ol Brnceton,
a distance of 18 miles, and all through
that country the people are donating the
right of way. As we come on this Bide of
the monntain, however, they begin to ask
compensation, and the nearer we get to
Uniontown the more exorbitant are their
demands. 1 have also had friends at
work, as it were, ‘feeling the pulse' of the
people of the town, and there does not ap
pear to be that readiness to aid the enter
prise for which I had hoped. We hope,
however, to get them awake to the
importance of the mattei soon. At
Danbar, a building association has offered
ns land fora depot, and other donations
can be secured, bnt we don’t want to go to
Dunbar. We could come to Fairchance
and came down along side the Pennsylva
nia's tracks, which we may do if ws can
do no better, bnt I like the route which
was projected by a citizen of Brnceton.
Work will probably be commenced next
wiek. Work will be pat on in sections,
and in a very short time after orders are
received to commence work .'>,000 or 6.00U
grade hands will be at work upon it. We
expect to have cars tunning into Brnceton
by Christmas. There is no lack of capital
to put. the work throngh without delay.
Thought He vVhh a Crook.
The Parkersburg Sentinel has the follow
ing:—
“Everybody knows John Clark, better
known as ‘Bottle.’ John went up on the
Wheeling excursion last Sunday and some
of the boys who had nse for hand patchels
that day, gave them over to Clark for safe
keeping until they returned home. In
this manner he acquired about half a
dozen satchels. The Wheeling police had
received information that morning that
several valises had been stolen in that city
the night before and to look ont for the
thief. Doe of the officers ran across Clark,
whom he snpposed was the thief, placed
him under arrest despite bis indignant
protests, and was about to lng him off to the
station bonse when fortunately for Clark
one of the excnraiouists discovered John on
hia way to jail. He explained the circum
stances to the officer, who at ones released
the now thoroughly freightened Clark.
John immediately hunted up the owners
of the satchels and kept out of sight of the
officers the remainder of the day.”
A Mysterious Death.
Frank Stjvenson, a colored yonth of
Williamsport, near Shephsrdstown, went
fishing one day last week with a com
panion, who, upon the approach of a
tbamler storm, went home leaving Steven
son alone. When Stevenson did not re
turn in the evening a search was instituted
and kept up during the night. The fol
lowing morning he was found dead standing
npright in a hollow tree, in which he had
doubtless taken refuge from the storm. A
coroner’s jury was summoned and decided
that he was killed l>y lightning, as no signs
of violence were visible and everything
indicated that during the severe storm a
dash of lightning had strnck near the tree,
and he had been killed by the shock.
What Alloa the Blrilj,
Mrs. Manda Conner, of Ellis, Gilmer
county, had near her boose a nice martin
box, which was filled with martins, and
one day missing the pretty little eongsters
she scrutinised the box and observed the
head of a blacksneke peering ont of it. The
pole was ent down and bis snakesbip
slaughtered, and a poet mortem examina
tion being made revealed the fact that the
said snake had swallowed the sweet little
birds. Soon thereafter, bring at her son's,
she related her adventure, and her son
having a martin box, also, went ont to
examine the same, and, lo and behold, a
huge blacksnake was climbing the pole to
devonr the inhabitants of the box. t ais
snake was also soon laid low in death. It
measured dj feet in length.
A Narrow Kscape
An exciting episode occurred on the B.
& O. railroad Thursday evening a few min
utes before the excursion train, which had
on board the Reformed Sunday School of
Frederick, pulled out from Harper’s Ferry.
A train of coal hoppers was ascending the
grade at Shenandoah Junction, when foe:
of the rear cars broke loose and came down
the grade at a rapjl rate. They ran to
Qandy Hook, where they struck several
cars standing on the main track, complete
ly demolishing the hoppers. Nobody was
hurt.
Kitten by a Snake,
Geo. Lynch, who resides on Poplar
Ridge, about eight miles from Braxton C
H., was bitten by a copper snake Tuesday
night. Mr. Lynch bad his attention at
tracted by the barking of a dog, and went
oat to see what whs tbe matter, and while
rummaging among some bushes was strnek
in tbe face by the snake, which sink its
fangs deep into his cheek. The snake was
killed. Mr. Lynch is in a very critical
condition, as bis bead and face is swollen
to thrice its natural size. Grave fears are
entertained as to his recovery.
Tbe Ulgbt Man Shot.
A correspondent to the Cumberland .Vein
writing from Keyser, says: Saturday
night 0*carCo!e, known as “Shorty,” shot
himself tbrongh the left hand. He went
to on exhibition at Waxler’s school home
intoxicated, and was refused admittance,
hot staid outside until the exhibition ad
journed. He then approached a young
lady to e cart her home, but was refused,
when hedrew a revolver and said he would
shoot her. Some one then struck the re
volver, with the result noted.
A Serious Fire.
The Brooklyn Mills, owned by Levi
Shaman, located in Wetzel county, took
fire from some unknown cause on last
Thursday night and burned to the ground.
The mill was a new three story frame, and
was one of the best buildings of the kind
in the country. The loss in mill, machine
ry and grain will cot fall short of JH.000.
A bold Robbery.
On last Sunday evening, while Mr.
Chancey Martin, of near Mt. Moriab,
Preston county, was lying on the bed in
his house, playing with his baby, a party
of men entered the house, overpiwered
him and ruhb&d him of over sixty-live dol
lars in money. The robbers used chloro
form, three men holding him until he be
came insensible. His family were at
church. He had borrowed one hundred
dollars for the purpose of paying some
debts, and had already paid ont some of
the money.
A Peddler's Class Call.
A Piedmont peddler had a narrow ea
cape from death, at that place, a few days
ago. He was walking down the B. & O.
track and stepped off, as be thought, ont
of the way of the East bound express. The
cylinder canglH his pack amidship, stood
the traveling dry goods store on bis bead
for a few ratuntea, turned him thiee or
four somersets in queer acrobatic shape,
and finally landed him down the embank
ment, a very scared man, but fortunately
not much injured.
Don't Fancy that Route.
A great many people have been wanting
io be deputy marshal in this State. When
it was reported Depnty Hagar had been
shot and killed in Wyoming county, Mar
shal White tendered his piece to several of
these disappointed ones, but their desire
for office had apparently passed away, for
none of them wanted the position. One
man wrote declining the offer with thanks,
stating that be “did not wish to go to
h—1 by way of Wyoming county.”
Fatal Accident.
The voperable Bamael F.vans, of Ivans
ville, Preston Conoty, is dead. About
four weeks ago be fell on his head and
shoulders, and, being a very heavy man
and aged over 80 years, received a serious

Watchman says incendiarirs act tire to the
cabins at Marvin’s Grove camp ground,
near Lowell, and that fifteen of them were
burned, including the ladies' sleeping
department. The buildings will be rebuilt
when the camp meeting opens. The das
tardly scoundrels or scoundrel ought to he
found out and sent to the penitentiary.
The Apple Crop.
Apple buyers from New York State are
already along the river trying to contract
with the farmers for their apple crop this
year. It is eaid that the apple crop in the
north is a failure, and hence the buyers
are around early. Oar advice to the farm
ers is not to be in a harry about selling.
Wait at least until they are fuliy informed
as to the market and the price.
