"Hello, there, Bmhst** men !" «aid a prominent manufacturer yesterday morn ing. "la it true so mo Democrat stopped ▼our paper because of tout position on the Portsr Smith business?" . "Not a word of truth in it," «aid the re porter. uit'a like all the other stonea of the intelliguocer, made out ot whole cloth to bolster up ita position. You know what their capacity ia for misstating and garbling the facts down there, don't you?" "Well, I think I know something about it It began about the time Campbell left, and was well illustrated whea they made the onslaught upon the Supretne Court O, j they re rot the gall down tiiere to do any thing. >ow I want to see this gambling stopped, but how caa Porter Smith do any thing now? They keep up this persecution in hopes of making political capital, and he wouldn t have a çrain of manhood about him if he did a thing until they called o9 their dogs. " A MERCHANT'S VISITS. The < kl«( of Polire Tlioruuf Uly Honeal and Capable. A Main street merchant, said yesterday: "The Intelligencer ought to gire Porter Smith a fair show. Now, I kaow Porter well; I hare had something to do with him. He ia a hard working man, strictly honest in his intentions and means to do right He is no politician and does not know how to fight politicians. This attack is all for political capital. If it was a dead square set at all the vices in the city and all ibe officers whoes duty it is tobring the culprits tojustice I would think there was an hone9t purpose about it Why doesn't the Intelli gencer go for the county prosecutor, and the foremen ot all the grand juries, who bare been letting these things run on for years? I tell you,there are two sides to the thing and some one wants to make Porter the butt to pull a lot of che^tnuU out of the fire. A Word A« to SaluooUtH Who Sell Ou Sunday. Said an aged and universally respected citizen, yesterday: "Why don't you and the IntelligencerjHay something about the saloon« keeping open on Sunday, aad why don't the City Sargeant go for them ? The law is plain enough, and every one of his deputies know all about it You can stand in the Intelligencer counting room and see a stream of men go down that alley, between Pollock's mill and List's building, every Sunday, that would open yonreyps, and vet you're all making a tuss about something that is no worse now than it has been ail along, and its twice as hard to set at as breaking the Sabbath with whiaky selling. I guess you re afraid, aren't you, to ppe&k out? ' '"Not at all," said the reporter. "When ntcttsary, we can talk, and we U put this in the paper if you say so. ' «'til, ?ee here; I don't want my name in the paper. ' "Oh, well; all right; we'll keep it out." A UbEKK THING. Tli« Intelligencer Cau Quote Gambles With Impunity, but a few Word* From Mr. Haley, in the "Uiigi*lrr,"ar« "lu • Here we are again, " as the clown said when be strapped the whip too near the atel of the lir.g master." 1 hbis was the siluM'ion of a well known citizen who bas a tendency »o poke fun at all thing* just as the reporter run his tinger in his bntton hole and demanded the situa tion on the spot. "1 ste the Intelligencer is going for you and saying all aorts of bad things about you.' "Yes."' "Is there ary truth in that harra«sing tale about a Democrat throwing his Rkimstkr in the fire and telephoning to ston hiä piper !>ecause you interviewed Codnctlman Hale> 7 "It's as big a fib at< ever the Intelligencer told during the campaign. "Well, I thought *o. Flealy i« a bad man, no doubt, and had better resign, but I couldn't se« that it was any worse for you to report what Healy said than for the In telligencer to report what the gamblers said. Every morning there is a lot of stuff in that paper about what the gamblers say, ULU Ii ntiSU V lue UICIK U1 UC4U^ WlUV&VUl. !*hej re ill talking against their own inter t$ts, don't jou tee'! Guess Healy has as jcoJ a right to sav something in print as :he eamblers; eh?' "That's the way the Register thhiks, or I it wouldn't haTe reported him." CONTRADICTORY. llo«lire for Siipprfiidon of Gambling In Oc» llrMth, wild Alleging None 1* Going On In the Next. "That Intellijreiacer is a queer paper," «aid a leading merchant, yesterday. "Some times 1 am at a loss to know what it really means. Now, take this morning's issue; it is one of the ipost inconsistent productions in the ncwspa(*er line I ever laid eyes on. Lfere they are, tearing their hair in a wild frenzy because Captain Smith doesn't raid the gamblers, and in the ne\t breathe they recite how there is not a solitary game run ting in the town, that some of the sporting men have gone to Pittsburgh and elsewhere, and that the whole industry is paralysed. It's kind of funny, when a fellow toinks over it a little. The reporter thought it was a little ridic ulous, and the merchan: went his waji. SPECIMEN It RICKS. Culled from S pec 1*1» to Metropolitan Journal». The following extract from a Wheeling dispatch to the New York San, and pub lished the 20 inst. is not conducive to help ing the McLure House's business:, "So widespread is the feeling that the resignation of both the Chief and Mr. Healy will be demanded. So far not an arrest has been made by the Chief, and aot a gambling room has been closed, although little playing is being done The Intelli gencer goes farther and gives the names of the owners of gambling rooms, and 'ocates one of them in the McLure House, the leading hotel in the State. At a public meeting held last evening the leükding ministers of the city spoke in favor of the Mayor and the Intelligencer, and offered prayers for their success." In the Philadelphia Times we find the following. If the Chief of Police has been furnished descriptions of gambling rooms he is not aware of it: "The Chief of Police still neglects to ar rest the gamblers, though descriptions of places were furnished him yesterday morn ing and the names this morniug by the In telligencer. * * * » * The excite ment is growing constantly. The gamblers are still on the ((round and one of them re marked that the Chief dare not molest them. 01MBLKB8 IN TBOl'BLK BLSEWIIEKK. the Lonl»?111* ltll«» Hold a Good Hand at Pake*. The Louisville Coc saeecial is creating a great sensation by its attacks upon tfce gamblers. Major Reed declares it is a bgbt against the city administration, and is canting the war into the t-aemy's conn try bv having some of the first citizens ot (he ci*v stimo»or.*d as «im»**»« betöre ihe grand jorv This is tu «ilcno* hi* ene ■ irs. aho psvt«odtid -to be is not in «truest in doting the gambling hou*«. Ile is the best Mavor, so far, that Louisville hâê had for mauy a year. It is certainly true that gambling is not confined to' the gambling J bells or even the club-roomj,but is indulged ' in by many of Louisville's best citizens in j their ovo homes. The young ladies also ! take a hand, and several Louisville girls j play poker and win all the money in sight Sommer before last the good people at the White Sulphur Springs were shocked be yond expression because a beautiful belle nom Louisville won enough money at poker to give a swell breakfast,and another Loaia ville girl, after a game, had the money to b«y a Frency bonnet. H1SH1NG IHK CITY. Telegnuna Which Give Ontaider* a Wrong lapniiioi. A gentleman connected with the legal profession yesterday called a reporter's at tention to the sensational dispatches sent abroad as doing the city great harm from a business point of view. People outside of the city, who cannot form any accurate idea of the situation, naturally conclude the peo ple are heathens, and that a vigilance com mittee is probably in order; therefore, Wheeling is a good «lace to steer clear of. Pl'tlUC OPINION. What Citizeai Think of the Persistent Per secution of Captain Smith. THE IXTELLIUKSCEr's HYPOCRACY. T» the Editor qf the Register. The virtuous heart of the editor of the In telligencer seems to be stirred to its depths by the failure of Porter Smith Jjp arrest forthwith every knight of the green cloth. We can well imagine how his heart must have pulsed and throbbed about to bursting during the four jears of Bennett's adminis tration. We imagine that it was too full for utterance; at least we suppose so, hav ing never heard from him in all that time. I Doubtless it took him all these years to gather up this great storm of indignation now bursting upon u3. Virtuous Ii(e)art! Dear wounded spirit ! Now we wish it distinctly understood that we are utterly opposed to this great iniquity that is fairly honeycombing our city, ruining [ and blasting the present and future life of j our youth, and we desire to see the utmost rigor of the law enforced against the gam blers, and we call upon Porter Smith to do his duty at once and to do it well But we bave a word to the hypocritical Pharisee of the Intelligencer. He knows full well that preparations were on foot by Porter Smith to go at this work in such a man ner as would have effectually crushed it out. Jvnowing mis, ana knowing also that under four years of He pubK .au police rule, but one single feeble effort wad made in thiä matter, and know ing that action at this time by a Democrat ic Chief would insure that party continuance in office, he deliberate!; throws every possi ble impediment in his way by raising tho present howl. Faugh! Get thee behind me, Satan! Step prostituii&g every virtue to political purf oses. We know you well moat virtu or.s editor, and we also understand you well. Vkritas. KKO.M C'A !T. smith's KKICHBORS AND KRIKKDS. To the Kiiitur of lh*' Rrgirftr. Please allow us space in your columns to a\,in regard to Porter Smith, whom the citizens ot Wheeling made their choice on ! 'be 2Vd day of January last, that we believe as a City Sergeant ho will fulfill his duty, and give the citizens satisfaction. We have ; known him for the last twenty years, and he has always been a straightforward man, : and we think him capable of attending to bis duties without allowing the editor of the . Intelligencer or the Mayor of the city to i run him, as he is a man of principle.- The citizens of Wheeling, will be satisfied that f he understands his business, if he is given ; a chance to do so. Now, Mr. Editor, all that has been circu ; lated about Mr. Smith will not amount to I much, is the estimation of his many friends I in th:B city. Wo think, first, it is a little party spîeen let loose. The Republican candi j date was defeated. We hope Mr. Smith will be given a chance, and, as he has al ways been honest aud fair in his business ! rhrough life, we trust this will be his motto during his term of office. Eighth Ward Citizens BKYIVING OLI> PASTIMES. I Tli« Crftck Checker and Cheiw Player« of Wheeling, and Thetr Peculiarities. Now that onr worthy Mayor, with the as HS'ance of Me Too, has at one fell swoop swept from our city the myriad of gamblers istaMished here during the reign of the late Chief Bennett, there is of course an end to all card p!a< ing, and our people can turn heir attentiou to the more innocent games of checkers, chess, etc. Checkers have a'wavs flourished in Wheel ing to an unusual degree, but more especiâl !y during the last winter did it become the j tavorite pastime of many of onr leading I citi/ens. One of the handsome cigar , parlors, on Market street, is considered the I headquarters of the checker traternity, and thtre tho famous players of the city mostly j fo congregate. Any evening you will there lind an exciting game in progress, with * crowd ot enthusiastic spectators : watching the maneuvers. There are quite a number of experts and while they all speak in reverential tones j of the davs of "Leather" Smith, and other«, ! \et we think there is now not a few who .-as discount the plajing of those giants of 'or m er days. Among our most successful ones are George Crumbacker, Henry Meder, J. L. Wild, William English, Alev Mitchell, T. H. Hall, Julius Pollack, and others of Wheeling, while Bridgeport has two first i class placers in F. C. Robinson and a • *»I l. f» WU. iUVUUUBTilir «lOU UQ9 a piwui^j i in the person of our genial friend Denuis Meighen. Among the Wheeling crowd Henrv Meder is considered the cham pion. Mr. Meder generally plays what is Known as the ' single corner ' game. He is a slow, careful player, making very few mis takes, and so far, has succeed in overcoming all competitors. He is very anxious to I meet Mr. Robinson, but the Bridgeport gentleman does not seem to have the same 1 anxiety. Mr. Wood is said to be one of the most scientific players in this part of the country. Hia favorite game is to pit him I sell against a dozen or more oponenta at one and the eame time, routing the I whole crowd in short ordei. There is one of the leading players who has the peculiarity of not being able to play ' successfully with hia hat on. With it on, the youngest novice can beat him, but when he dashes his tile to the floor, his adversary 1 may just as well imitate Davy Crocket's coon. Another gentleman can onlv play cuccessfully when smoking, and a third can never win except amid profound silence. There has been considerable talk ot late about organizing a club, renting and fur nishing a suite of rooms as a resort for the chess and checker playerg of Wheeling. Judging from the enthusiasm displayed it will not be long ere it is inaugurated. TEMPERANCE. Lut Evening'* Experience Meeting at the . Baptiftt Church. About three hundred persons—nearly twice as many as on the previous Saturday— assembled in the First Baptist church last evening to take part in the eleventh tem perance meeting of the present aeries. The meeting, like ita predecessor of last Satur day, was designed as a general experience meeting, devoted to a large numberof short speeches from gentlemen who had aigned the pledge at either the present series ot meetings or at some other. The exercises of the evening were opened with prayer by Rev. Mr Shott, pastor of the I cborch. after which the hymn: "Rescue the Perishing" was aung, and the nsual collec tion for thedefraying of incidental expenses taken np. Rev Mr. Shott then read a selection from tiallatians iii., beginning at the thirteenth verse, commenting upon it as he proceeded. Proceeding to talk of the temperance work, the reverend gentleman said it waa of little avail to •> <n a Murphy pledge, wiihont the signer had faith in Christ. The Murphy pledge was merely a preliminary step, and one that should at coce he followed up with a confession: ht> fore God, and a request that he help and froide. And after faith in God had come, the wotk of holding strictly to the Murphy row was euj, and no more trouble need be feared. Judge Okej Johnson foHowen the rerer eod gentleman with a short address, aod then in turn William Hastings, William Memfield, Jefferson Reed, Clarence Irwin, Mr. McCann, Mr Millard. Mr. Howell and O. W. Baggs made briti remarks, narrating incidents of personal experience, or appeal ing to those who had nat jet done so to come forward and sign the pledge. ; SUP KCUK COURT OIT APl'KAXâ.

Short Conversation« With People on Vart ont Topic*, Archie Mackenzie, advance agent of "My Sweetheart" Company—We have been do ing an immense business all season; for the lighter amusement organizations, such as popular comedies ana musical entertain ments, the year's work, as a whole, will be fair, butas a rule melo-dçamists and heavy people are having a tough time of it. Miss Palmer has drawn great houses. Our first week in Chicago was over $9,000 gross. Then we next went out through the Colorado country, drawing well everywhere, and came back to Chicago and opened at the Grand against Lotta, and without putting up a bill or a banger of any sort, we Dud tue largest audiences we ever had in the city. We open in Pittsbnrg Monday, for a week, and then come down to Wheeling; Wheeling has always treated us right From here we jump to Brooklyn, then to Toronto, then to Cleveland, then to New 1 ork tor tûree weens ana to uosion two weeks and clo&e.

She is to get sixty-five per cent, of the gross receipts for herself alone and the play; the company a od the rest come« out of the other thirty fi?e per cent. You can say to your readers that next week wi'I be the last opportunity they will have of seeing Miss Palmer for two yi&rd. LOOKS BRIGHTER. An Karly Resumption of the Glass Indus trie» in This Section Looked For. It will be remembered that several weeks ago the glass workers met and adopted a résolution to hand to the manufacturers, Mating that they were willing to adopt a uniform wage aud move list. This was handed the manufacturers, and they were to take action in regard to the matter. This was not done until Friday last, when thev met and decided fo make the following reply: Jacob E. Pence, M. Osrtns, Tho3. I. Owens: Gekti.fmek: Your resolution containing the assurance that you will adopt a uuiform move and wage list has been received, and I have been instructed by the representa iiveBof theLaBelle («Ins* Company, Bellaire Hoblet Company, Belmont Glass Company, .Etna Glass Company, Bcllaire Lantern Globe Company, National Glass Company, Buckeye Glass Company, and Elson Glass Company, in reply, to say that all they ask of yon is to adopt a svstern that will place them on an equal footing with Pittsburg manufacturera. Any system that is uniform «ill do this. Very respectfully, E. P. Rhodes, Chairman. This reply was handed the glassworkers' committee, yesterday. It now only remrin» tor the glassworkers to adopt a uniform wage and move list, and either hand it to -he manufacturers or ask that a conference be held between the committees. Both pa tics have agreed so far, and it is sincerely hoped that their further deliberation and dtcisicns will meet with approval all round, so that an early resumption of work will 'ske place, and the men who are idle now given employment.

A grant» skating carnival will be given by Ohio Valley Lodge No. 31, K. of P., at the North Knd rink, on Tuesday evening. A number of elegant prizes will be contest ed for. This will be a very enjoyable event and will be, no doubt, largely attended. TnE grand Mother Hubbard carnival to be given at the Chapline street rink Monday night, gives promise of being one ot the finest and most enjoyable affairs in snch cir cles given this season. A lar^e number of ladies and gentlemet have signified their in tention of being present, and the affair will undoubtedly be a grand success. The Denman Combination of bicycle and skatorial artists that appear at the Capitol rink, on Monday and Tuesday evenings, March 23 and 24, are beyond question, tne finest professional exhibitors on the bicycle and skate that ever visited this part of the country. Hanna and Blakelev are really the monarchs of the wheel; Misa Minnie Parrott deserves the title of the champion /\f wni-M An n«r»îo piratai on/9 Guisie Stritt, the juvenile wonder, is the greatest acrobatic skater of his age in the country. The whole performance is great, and all should see them. Teas ! Teas ! !

Congratulitine Mrs. Joseph Miller—A New Danger From FufLin«d Cloaks—A Slur on North Wheeling Girls—An Abundance of Blue Ejed Boys— «• Easter—The Cook ■ ing Mania. Ai spokeswoman for M>me of the rest of my oppressed aad downtrodden sex. I want to tell 70a about the latest injary which has been pot upon us bj the tyrant man. J spoke not long ago oi the fact that Wheel ing boys are beginning to remove the embargo on kid glover, and now the girls wish—oh! how they wish that they I would wear those gloves while skating with them, for a gloreless partner is death and I destruction to the hand covering of his fair charge. One of the girls declares that she thinks the linking mania is nothing but a boom for the glove maker, aa while we are learning to skate we split all our gloves by the force with which we cling to the masculine hand which seems our only hope present and future. Aud afterwards, alas ! our gloves are more even safe when w« can commend the use of what a Itdy calls "our roller feet.'' Une young lady remarked the other day that she had used up all her own gloves and commenced to borrow, and anodier still bolder spirit threatens to carry the war into Africa by establishing a contribution box and asking every man who skates with her to contribute something towards a new pair. Well, after mining many pairs of gloves, in a fit of desperation we took to wearing black ones, thinking they would last longer, and now the lordly sex have heaped insult on the head 01 injury by complaining that our black gloves stain their hands ! ! ! Oh ! ! ! ! « * * Mrs. Joseph Miller nas received many congratulations on the appointment of her hu&band, though her friends much regret her deoarture from the city. The date of ber final leave taking is not yet fixed, bat she will shortly join her husband in Washington, where they will board for a time, wishing to look about them before se lecting a houee. * * * A well known young ladf tells a good story on herself to the effect that while walk ing out the other morning she was persist ently followed by a hungry looking dog. She quickened her pace, but doggie did the same, with the opparent intention of mak ing a Greeley party of her, when a gentle man stopped and informed her that the animal meant her no personal injnry, but miptoofc tue tur lining or ner ciouk ior a tvii cealed cat upon whom he longed to make wtti—an explanation which doubtless gave her more comfort than the fear that he in tended to make a meal of her. * * * What do you think a cruel man told me the other day? Whv that the average North Wheeling girl carries two satchels for her skates. On Wing asked the wherefore of such a proceeding ne informed me that a single satchel was entirely to small to contain the pair, so she prefers packing them singly to carrying a valise. Girls, what shall be done to him? ♦ * * A gav party of young folkd from here went to Washington the less on the after noon train Thursday, and after supping at a hotel proceeded to paralyze the rink ire quenters ef that town. Among the party were Misses Louise Butler, Maud Kchols, Marv Ott and Laura Cooper, and Messrs. James Hall Will I>ay, Ed hocking and Pan Heifkell, all good skiiters, who showed tho Wacbingtonians some Wheeling fancy steps. Ihe prand march was led by Mr. Day, with a Washington lady, to the admiration of all prefent, and a party of tired but happy folks came home on the late train. * * # If your best girl paints—in oil or water colors, I mean, i can probably tell you what she is painting yon for an Easter card, but don't tell her F told you. It is a perfect imi tation of the toothsome soda cracker, in white satin, and when decorated will make a beautiful Easter card and a charming memento of her skill. * * * Somebody was remarking the other day on the numbers of blue-eyed, not only Marys, but Johnnies also, whom one meets in Wheeling society. And so it has come to pass that I have so far overcome my ueual maidenly modestj as lo lift my own eyes and make some observations on this inter esting subject. I have discovered that George Baird has looked so much at the blue of heaven that it is reflected in his orbs; that Irwin Singleton also gazes at his fair friends with eyes of that truthful color; that Tom Howell likewise gives a side glance and looks down with a glint of blue under his lashes; that John Rheildaffer also wears the color which never says "no to a lover," as Mr. Thomas Moore asserts, and I have no means of denying, that Russell Wocd also has eves of "most un holy blue," while if yon can prevail upon Will I >#laplaine and Ed. Bock iDg to lift theirs long enough you will see that theirs are of the same bewitching hue. Bobbie Richardson is also "true blue, ' and Ed. Ilazlett smiles with a pair of "the for get me not8 of the angels '' Wheeling must be very near heaven; don't yon think so? * # * Easter is now at hand, and then a few of the good things of life in the social line are Fromised us. It is also whispered,how truly do not know, for 1 only "tell it as 'twas told to me," tbat there are to be an unusual number of weddings in Bocial circles during the coming spring. Now commence to "spot" the expectant brides. One lives on —but no. if I tell you so soon she might be angry and not send me an invitation to the * * Here, as elsewhere, we girls have had the cooking mania, and hare probably made numbers of our masculine friends life long dyspeptics bv compelling them to eat of divers fearfully and wonderful!/made dishes. But so far none of us hare enough of the nursing craze to repair the damages we have caused and to oe able to bind up and soothe the various burns and cots inflicted on ourselves in such culinary pursuits. In other cities, society's maids ana matrons are flocking to lectures delivered on the subject of how to nurse the sick, as well as how to prepare the dainties to tempt them during convalescence. Would it not be a nice idea to iuduce some of our popular young physi cians to commence such a course of lectures? Charlie Ott writes home that the farther West be goes the better he likes the coun try, and that at his present stopping place, the climate makes the thought of summer clothe« a natural one. It is needless to sav that the average frozen WheeEngite is mad ly envious of nim. I only hope that no frost bitten and enraged citizen will mail him an infernal machine. • « # Very few entertainments have been given this week. Indeed a dinner given by the Misses I-oring and some private rink parties, one a fancv dress one at the Island rink, comprise the social dissipation of the last six days. The girls ail say, how- j ever, that the boys hare been unusually attentive to their social duties. Are they merely doing I^enten j penance or do they, in the language of the old soog, "go tosee their sweethearts, cause thev'f# nothing else to do?" One of the ! K- Is was wishing the other day that while , «e halcyon days last, there would be a good show at Um Opera House, as a great many would be provided with escorts. And, by the way, speaking of the play, brings to My mind a terrible accusation that has been made against the Wheeling girls; it is said tbat she eats candy in pablic places, at the theatre, the rink, and on the street To be sere the fair minded people might think that the girls oaght to have soraeth'.n; aa an equivalent to the eternal cigare te. bat at such snfceling gribes, she merely shrubs her shoulders—and goes on ea'ing c*udy.
