Heatwave grips Wheeling with 102 degree peak
Yesterday’s heat drew crows of residents outdoors as thermometers soared to 102 at Schuepfs and then fell after clouds formed. Police reported one serious case, Mrs Dikman, who fainted during the return trip from Short Creek. Crowds sought relief along the riverfront and in parlors, while beer and ice water dispensaries ran heavy.

Mingo ball dance disrupted by dynamite explosion
A Friday night dance for the colored community in Mingo was interrupted when envious white locals detonated dynamite beneath a windfall, shattering a concession building and scattering attendees. No injuries are reported, and tensions remain high as the community recovers from the incident. An excursion to Cleveland is advertised for July, with discount tickets from Bridgeport. Local ads promote Georgia melons and cantaloupe, and a testimonial credits Dr King’s New Discovery for curing a severe cold.
