This morning at half-past six o’clock the first passenger train over the Term inal railway system, between this city and Martin’s Ferry, will leave the Union station, at Market and Eigh teenth streets, and at seven o’clock the first train will leave the station at Mar tin’s Ferry, bound for this city. The train will thereafter run regularly be tween the two points named, leaving this city generally on the half-hour and Martin’s Ferry on even hours, there be ing a slight deviation at noon. The last train will leave the city at eight thirty this evening, and the last train leaves Martin’s Ferry at eight o’clock. The fare for a single trip either way is fifteen cents, or twenty-five cents for a round trip. Commutation tickets, at re duced rates, are on sale, according to the schedule published heretofore. There will likely be a big rush for trips over ibis road to-day, and it looks as if it would be a favorable means of communication between the two towns. No provision has as yet been made for late evening trains, but this will be reg ulated according to the travel, particu larly on Saturday nights, when the rush is heaviest and people want to get to and from the city quickly and comfort ably. AN IMPORTANT CARO. W. £ L. E. By. Co. States Jts Position In Reference to the W. B. 4I> Co. 7 o the Editor of the Register. Sir: So much has been said privately and written publicly connecting the Wheeling & Lake Erie Railway Com pany with the payment of the last 5100, 000 of the subscription of Ohio county to the caDital suick of the Wheeling Bridge and Terminal Company that we deem it advisable to state the posi tion of the Wheeling & Lake Erie 'Com pany in this matter. If the 5100,000 is due and payable, it is because the Wheeling & Lake Erie Railway Company has built its railroad from Bowerston to Martin’s Ferry and connected with the Wheeling Bridge and Terminal Company at Martin’s Ferry. It con structed this connection with the un derstanding that the same contract by which the Terminal Company, through this action of the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway Company, secure the $100,000, It, the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway Company, or any other railroad company connecting with the tracks of the Terminal Company could have Its cars of freight transferred over any or all the tracks of the Terminal Company for a charge not to ex ceed a maximum rate of two dollars per car. The officials of the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway Company in charge of its traffic have applied to the officials of the Terminal Company for rates, but no proposition has yet been been made by the officers of the Terminal Company to the Wheeling and Lake Erie railway which would be either a compliance with the terms of the ordinance of Ohio county or such tariff rates that the Wheeling and Lake Erie railway can afford to accept and do business with the people of Wheeling or to enter into the carriage of freight passing through the city of Wheeling. The Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway Co., asks nothing more than what the ordinance stipulates, and it proposes to endeavor to obtain it, in the Courts or otherwise, and it hopes to have the com mendation and assistance of every fair minded citizen in Ohio county in this undertaking. Thf. Wheeling and Lake Erie Rail way Co. Charleston, Clendennln and Sutton. A meeting of the stockholders of the Company was held at Charleston, W. Va., last week to hear the reports from the engineers of the preliminary sur veys between Charleston and the Kana wha county line. Mr. C. K. McDougall, the chief engineer, made a report as to the probable cost of the line, taking either side of the Kanawha river. The stockholders’ resolution instructed Mr. McDougall to proceed at once with his engineers to make a permanent survey of the line from Charleston to the Clay county line, and it is expected that this will be done before the winter weather stops work. Ctaeanprak* and Ohio. President Ingalls, while in Richmond last week, said that the officers had loug been considering plans for a new station at Richmond, and other improvements. [ “We will have to ralso $1,000,000 to do the work that we have mapped out, the belt line and the station. Engineers ! have been iu the field all summer look | lug for the best route for the line around Richmond. In about a week they will | be ready to report on the surveys. We will probably Issue a terminal bond to the extent of $1,000,000 for this Richmond work soon.” The railroad was carrying the heaviest busi ness in its history. President Ingalls added. The earnings for August were $836,000. against $726,000 for the same period last year; net earnings for Au i gust were $251,000, against $213,000 ret j earnings in August of last year. The new locomotives added, to the equlp ! ment are paid for out of the earnings. The old tuunels are being arched and the expense charged to operating ex penses. The road is in very good shape, and is being constantly improved, 25 locomotives being kept at work ballast ing, filling ditches and in other im provements to maintenance of way. 1 The Baltimore ft Ohio Proposed Exten sion. A few days ago Col. Douglass, chief i engineer of the Baltimore and Ohio ! railroad and Col. Irwin, chief assistant ' engineer, and Mr. Whittaker, Col. Douglass’ private secretary, went over the route of the F., M. St P. railroad as surveyed between Morgantown and Uniontown. The gentlemen started from Uniontown in carriages and looked over the entire route, leaving Morgan town in Col. Douglass’ private car, “Newark,” which was sent around by Cumberland. A gentleman who had a long talk with the officials and is him self connected with the B. & O., when questioned as to the meaning of the 1 visit of the officials said, “You cau state that the road will be extendod to Un iontowu at no distant date.” Railroad Notea.

A meeting of the Board of P'rector9 of the Charleston, Clendenin & button railroad was held Monday night, »t which time the report of the Engineer, C. K. McDermott, on the cost con structing the railroad on either sidei of the river was preseuted. The board de termined to put an engineer corps in tne field as soon as possible, and have the permanent survey made. Immediately after this tho work of construction will be begun, and it is expected to have the work of grading the road bed well under way before winter sets in.—Kanawha Gazette. “Weak and weary,” describes the condition of many people debilitated by the warm weather, by disease or over work.

M. a A. 8tcr*i Bins and 6«nsr*l Immorality and In dsouey Touched np Eofcre a Portly ^ Masculine Audience. The meeting at the Y. M. C. A. build ing yesterday afternoon was out of the ordinary, but it was, nevertheless, full of interest and useful instruction. At four o’clock, the hall in the second story was almost filled with young and middle-aged men, there being a number of Y. M. C. A. men from Martin’s Ferry and Bridgeport in the audience. The Y. M. C. A. quartette was present to furnish the music and the hymns were sung with a spirit and dash that showed that the singers’ hearts were in the work. On the stage were, Mr. William Blakle. Mr. Hart, who was to Introduce the speaker and Reverends DornbTaser, Lynch, W. Wirt King, Brlttingham, Davis and Alford. The meeting was opened by the Rev. Mr. King, who read the one hundred and nineteenth Psalm, after which Rev. Mr. Davis Offered a fervent prayer. Mr. Hart then introduced the speaker. Mr. Blakle, who is au extremely pleasant speaker, and who has a very pointed and pithy way of putting things, rose . and said: “Blessed is he that expects little for he shall not be disappointed.” He said: “I want you to think this afternoon about the kind of lives you’ve been lead ing, and the kind of lives those about you lead. “I notice several churches in this vi cinity and just below here it a school house. We pay millions of dollars every year to keep up these two institutions, and what for? To teach the people the way they should live and to fit them for life. “liut according toouriueas oi scnoois they arc not for the teaching of decency. The teachers cannot speak of these things, because their classes are com posed of boys and girls alike. The preachs cannot speak of these abuses, and the association with indecent persons of the other sex, because they have mixed audiences. Fathers feel too squeemish abuut talking to their boys about such matters, and few of them ever meution it. Who will tell the boys about these things? I’ll tel! you who’ll toll them: The boys will tell them. They meet together in out of the way places and tell all about such things in the most immoral and improper way. “Man know that their sons must lenrn of these things, so why should th. j bo backward about telling them iu the most straightforward and earnest manner. Why should they not take their sons into their confidence and teach them to abhor these secret evils the same as they teach them to snun other sin?. And mothers and female physicians should do the same for the daughters. “There’s another form of indecency that is indulged and for which there is no cause whatever. That is the smutty story. You may say you can not help It if others tell smutty stories in your presence. I say you can. Now I'll tell you how, and if you try it I assure you the same person will not afflict you the second time. “Don’t come any goody good business on it; don’t lot’s have any can’t in this work; don’t say to the ntan who tells the story ‘I am holler than thou.’ A look will do it all. When the filthy story-teller approaches you, do not give him any encouragement, and when he’s done, don’t laugh. That Is the most effective way in the world to stop him from attempting the same thing again. He may say ‘You don’t seem to appre ciate my story.’ Just tell him that you don’t, and I am sure he’ll not bother you again. “No man In this hall, or out of It, ever did an indecent thlngwlthout first having indecent thoughts. You may say you can’t help your thoughts; they may be suggested by anything, or they may come without a suggestion. That Is true, but you can cast evil thoughts and unclean thoughts from your mind. “Suppose you’d meet a man to-night who would propose that you rob a bank; that you become a burglar. You d kick that thought out of your mind and kick the fellow who proposed it out of your presence. Why should you entertain any other sort of an unclean thought ; any more than a thought of burglary? “If I am not deceived by appearances that I saw in the city last night, you have here a class of young women and girls who walk the streets In the even ings. I know you have them here; they are in every city of the slzo of Wheeling. Now, these young women may bo spoken to and will ac cept your acquualntaace without the formality of an Introduction and if you are at all backward about making their acquaintance, thoy’ll help you. Con cerning these, I have only to say: be ware; there is danger In the first move, and it grows greater with each succeed ing venture.” He that spoke at leigth of the man ner which the sins of the father shall be visited upon his thlldren unto the fourth and fifth generations and men tioned the destroctiln of Sodom and Gomorrah, and PompslI that were des troyed on account of the indecency of their inhabitants. His talk throughout was intensely interesting, and the entire audience re mained till he closed, though he talked nearly an hour.
