'SPECIAL TELF.GKAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
Wheeling, Sept. 13. This city has long
been known as a town where any gentleman
of gambling proclivities could risk and lose
his cash ritli every assurance that the au
thorities would not disturb the layout dur
ing the progress of the game, but it has re
mained for the pabt few days of fair week
to demonstrate how wide open the places
can be run. Not only were poker rooms,
heno and faro shopa running all over town,
just as UFiial, only more so, but on the Fair
Grounds even thing "went" with a ven
gcance. In consideration of tho sum of
(3,000 received by the association, no less
than even wheels of fortune were openly
running: during the entire weec, and in ad
dition the shell game, cuuck-a-lnck, monte,
lieironlmous and half a dozen games were
operated.
The city and county ofllciale took a hand
tlicmselveci at the game, and one prominent
oilici.il ol Wheeling run the black and white
ftlieel lor awhile himself, winning some
ca'h, which he smilingly pocketed. Tho
word was passed aiound the grounds during
the fair that anj body who had $30 or $100
could tart a gauie, and thev were all in it
to eiich an extent that the sliort-naircd fra
ternity from Pittsburg, Columbus, Cleve
land and other places voted Wheeling the
liveliest town they had struck during the
fcean. The gamblers scooped in thousands
of dollais flunug the week, while the back
country suokers went home in disgnst, for
any tale of bnr.ko he had to tell was poured
Into deaf ears in official circles here. The
Jafr was. a glorious success to everybody, ex
cepting, of course, the producer.

will, within six months, give employment to TWO THOUSAND MORE.
The attention of buyers is especially called to the fact that this is NOT A "LAND SPECULATOR'S SALE." This
property is in "first hands" and is offered to close an estate," has never been "boomed" and must be sold. No fancy prices asked.
Personal inspection will convince any one that no better opportunity for a profitable investment can be found.
The fact is well known that no city in the State has had a growth equal to McKEESPORT in the past ten years, and
with from TWELVE TO FIFTEEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS INVESTED IN MILL PROPERTIES, and large additions
being made thereto yearly with THREE TRUNK LINES OF RAILROAD, TWO NAVIGABLE RIVERS, with manv
miles of the best PAVED STREETS, thoroughly SEWERED, 'and lighted with ELECTRIC LIGHT, .CITY WATERS
ARTIFICIAL and NATURAL GAS, Churches and Schools equal to the best; and an electric street car system under con
struction, it is safe to say no other city has such a future before it. No property in this city can compare with this for location or
for future advance in value.
Why invest money in a lot in tpwns existing only on paper when with the same amount of money you can buy a lot in
the heart of this great manufacturing city, where RAPID" ADVANCE IN VALUE IS CERTAIN?
TERMS EASY. 10 per cent on day of sale and 10 per cent half yearly until" paid, with. INTEREST AT 4 PER
CENT YEARLY.
If you wish to make money send for plans and circulars and .attend the opening sale. Lots from $350 to $600 on graded
and sewered streets. FREE TRANSPORTATION FURNISHED AT THE OFFICE, all or write to
