1b New Terk-Breat Results Pre
dicted Ibr the Movement.
A number of ladle of thla city have In
. tereeted themselves In the fonrntien of a
elnb for working girls. Several meetings
lure beea held, and evidence of growing
Interact given In the Increasing attendance
of young women. At the last meeting
Intra ware thirty or mera present. They
bare net eecured a permanent home, but
hire rented a room at MIm Wright's, en
North Prince atreet, and it la erganised
under the title of ih3 " Yeung Women'
Aid aoeiety." Every evening a num
ber of girls gather In the room. An
effort Is te be made te seen rea membership
that will Justiry the eetabllahment of club
rooms, where the girls may gather te or
ganice measures for their mutual benefit,
and where they may enjoy social evenings
with safe and elevating surroundings.
In this connection It la noted that in New
Yerk, en Tuesday and Wednesday, a con
ventlen of working girls' societies was In
evasion; Of the two- hundred delegates
present, mere than half were wage earn
ers, among them a number of teachers and
bookkeepers.
It Menu te be the aim of the promoters ,
of these clubs in this country te make
them a common meeting ground for as
many classes of women as possible. The
ultorleralm Is the aiding and elevating of
the classes or working girls most needing
such Influence.
Miss Florence Lockwood read a paper en
literary elements In the women's clubs.
She advocated well-selected libraries in
club rooms, and recommended many
standard works. She did net believe
women should be cooks, dressmakers or
housekeepers alone. Tbe perusal of geed
literature would take away the glamer of
outside amusements and teach a woman
mere than ever of the pleasures of home.
Miss Clira Petter, the daughter of Bishop
Petter, followed with an admirable paper
en " Provident and Benefit Schemes. '
Several clubs have adopted a scheme of
making all the girls contribute a nominal
sum out of their weekly earnings, which
is put into a fend, from which they recetve
$3 te 95 a week when sick or out of work.
She also treated of summer vacations.
She described the condition of a girl alene
in a city in the summer months,,bow few
laces were fit for her te go te. Miss
otter foregoes the pleasures of ether
watering places te take charge of the
. Miller's Place property, which Is known
among the women's clubs as "Holiday
Heuse." The cost of two weeks vacation
at " Holiday Heuse," Miss Petter said, was
but ft), and all a girl had te de was te make
her own bed and help dry the dishes once
a week, and last year the house cleared
ever 9100. Similar co-operative seaside
resorts were described by Miss Emily
M. Morgan, of Hartferd, Conn., nnd Miss
Lizzie Patterson, of Bosten. ,
The following extracts from compeslto
paper prepared by several members of the
Industrial society, Uobeken. is fairly re
presentative of tbe fashion In which the
problems of dally life are grappled with by
these young woge-oarners. It was read by
Miss Chapin, and waa In answer te the
question, "What de working girls ewo
each ethor?"
A working girl Is doing otber work-
leg girls an injury when she consents te
work for less than " living wages." A Kirl
who is supported by her parents and only
werka for pocket money or te buy her
clothes, or a young,married woman who
werka for the same objects, can afford te
take lower wages than a girl who bns te
pay her own beard, Ac.
We de net approve of the principle of
strikes. We should prefer te soe all mat
ters referring te labor and capital regulated
by law. Fer this purpose representatives
should be sent te Congress who would
really represent the wage-earners and thuir
interests.
Strikes generally profit ue one but the
walking delegate. Strikes In rare Instances
and In the present atate of the laws are
justified when the empleyer attempts te
bring the wages paid down te starvation
rates. They will only succeed If the girls
all go out together and If Uiey remain
firm.
If one girl sees another doing her work
badly she should net report her, but rather
show her hew te de the work. If a girl
sees any dUbenesty abe should warn the
offender, and if It continues she should
then tell the empleyer.
It ought te make no difference In tbe
quality of a girl's work whether she has a
geed or a bad employer. It is always te
theirl's Interest te de the work well, for
she then feels that abe Is ludeendeut and
can always get another place.
One geed and pure-minded girl often ele
vates the tone et these working with her.
Any girl with common sense will be dis
gusted with the conversation of a "tough"
.Hrl. nirl.aenn divide Inte trreuDS accord
ing te their tastes and characters. If the
ing te their tastes ana ciiaraeiers. u
geed girls predominate the "toughs"
afraid te talk out One geed girl has n
Influence than one "tough." We h
i mere
have
noticed the superiority or girls belonging
te our societies, ineir goeu iuuukuib
strengthened there. They are helped by
the practical talks.
A number of speakers took the view that
this woman's movement Is the greatest
revolution the world has ever Been. But
it will be an essentially peaceful uprising
and its prophets say It is te end in better
women, better wives and through them
better men.

Anticipating a Geed
The general sentiment among anglers Is
that this will be a geed eeeeen for sport
along therlvera and creeks. The winter
having been a mild one they expect fish te
be abundant It la probable that the black
bass will begin spawning In the waters of
thla state within a week or two and be all
through before the first of June. The bass,
unlike many ether apeeteeef fishes, care care
felly guard their young for some time,
fiercely driving away intruders.
This morning Fish Commissioner De
mnth, accompanied by Dr. H. E. Muhlen
berg, T. C. Wiley and Jacob L. Perter,
drove down te Martle township. They
took with thorn three large cans of trout,
which name irera the state hatchery at
Emsus. The fish were placed In different
streams.
The state fish commission have been
quite active In stocking streams, an! be
sides keeping up tbe supply or the best
game fish are Introducing new species
tbst may prove very profitable.
Henry C. Ferd, president or the com
mission, speaking te a Philadelphia JCedger
reporter en the work or the commission,
said : " The chlef production or the state
hatcheries this spring has been trout fry,
and the Pennsylvania commission has dls-
f tributed 22,000,000 of their fry this spring,
as against l.ew.uuu issi year ana uw,uw me
year before, and has applications for hair a
million mere fry than can be supplied.
n?be principal reason of this grest in
crease In the demand for trout fry Is that
the plantings of three or four years age are
beginning te show returns, aud people see
that many streams that were depleted have
been restored te their original geed condi
tion aa regards fishing. We can't begin te
produce the number of trout tbat-will be
solicited from us In the future unless we get
an appropriation from the Legislature for
the erection of another hatchery. New
Yerk state hss five hatcheries, while Penn
sylvania lias only two. The demsnd Is
this state is greater, because the moun
tainous region is greater, and because there
are mere mountain streams In which trout
will thrive. New Yerk has but few
streams outside of the Catskllland Adiron
dack regions suitable for the growth of
trout. . .
"The commission's stock or carp was ex
hausted last December, although we ob
tained several thousand from the United
States commission. s
"We have also put In Lake Erie about
14,000,000 while fish fry, and their success success
fel planting Is evidenced by the fact that
the catches or this species or fish in Lake
Erie have been unusually large, and tbe
selling price In consequence reduced one
third. " Tbe wall-eyed pike Is next te tbe whlte
fish In commercial Importance, and Uie
Pennsylvania fish commission is at
present collecting spawn or this fish and
expects te hatch out between 15.000,000 and
20,000,000 fry during the month or May.
Most or these will be put In Lake Erie, but
many will be planted In the lakes or Pike
county and larger rivers of our state. The
flesh of the wall-eyed plke is white and
firm snd delloieus.
"The wall-eyed pike Is sometimes called
Susquehanna salmon, although it is really
net a salmon. I eftet wondered why this
fish was peculiar te the Susquehanna river
east or the Altegbenles, until one day Sen
ter Cameren Informed me that seme sixty
years age a French priest introduced it
into the north branch or the Susquehanna
rrem Seneca lake. The wall-eyed pike
grows te 18 and 20 pounds in weight Last
rear, the Pennsylvania commission put in'
11,000,000 wall-eyed plke in the Delaware,
Schuylkill and Juniata rivers, from the
United Slates hatchery at Sandusky.

"These fish will all be desirable additions
te the lowland streams, wberp new little
else is caught In quantity besides suckers,
eels snd catfish. They are all, besides being
fine feed fishes, very garaey, will take
artificial fly or bait grEefllly and fight
fiercely.
"The white bass is similar In appearance
te tbe white perch, but grows much larger,
reaching frequently a weight of three
pounds. The yellow bass Is marked like
a striped bass, but Is colored like a yellow
perch, and attalnsa weight ofthree pounds.
The crappie is a perch-shaped fish, wblch
grows te a like weight, and is a delicious

In regard te shad propagation Mr. Ferd
said that during the past four years 40,000,
000 shad fry were placed In the Delaware
river. In the same stream 100,000 Penob
scot salmon were deposited last month.
"The United States commission," con
tlnued Mr. Ferd, " has been or great assist
ance te the Pennsylvania commission. A
bill bas been introduced into Congress
placing the United States commission in
the department of agriculture, and giving
te the commissioner of that department the
appointment or all the officers or the com
mission. The Pennsylvania commission
has protested against this, believing that
it would Impair the usefulness or tbe
United States commission, as well as its
inrinnenrlenpn of action. The Pennsylvania
Fish Protective association, formerly
known as the Anglers' Association or
Eastern Pennsylvania, en Saturday night
made u similar pretest, with a request te
the representatives rrem this state in Con
gress te oppose It The Introduction or
this bill has aroused the opposition of tbe
fishing Interests all ever me country, ana
letters of pretest are going te Washington

tbe ban of the night ralders, and recently
there have been warnings sent out te vari
ous inen through the county notifying
them tbat they would be visited by regu
lars if they did net quit Sunday practices.
Net much attention was paid te these warn
ings by tbe recipients, but last Saturday
night a raid was organized by the band,
and the first heuse reached in tbelr rounds
was that erEphrlam Helland, an old man
who had by seme unknown cause glven
efTcns". Helland is peer, but he is honest,
and has always been a hard working man.
On the night stated four men wearing
heavy masks rede up te the deer aud do de
mantled admittance. This was refused.
and while ene membcr of the gang held tbe
horses the otherH buttered down the deer
with a heavy leg. The old man made
only a feoble roslstance. He was knocked
down and the assailants kicked and
pounded blm as he lay at tbelr mercy.
The fourteen-yenr-old son or Helland.
Gene, was aroused by the struggle, and
taking a shotgun rrem the wall he fired It
at the men who were beating his futber,

attempted te sheet the boy, but before he
could de ae the boy fired again and mortally
wounded blm. The ethor sceundrels thou
fled, aud the wouuded man crawled out te
the gate, wbere he laid until morning. At
daybreak, just as help came, be died, The
neighbors took off the masks of the dead
men and found them te be two near neigh
bors of Helland. One was Edward Gilliam,
jr., the son of a well-to-de farmer, and the
ethor was Aloxander Oatoweod, who has
a reputation of belng a goneral bad char
actor In the neighborhood. The Identity
of the ethor two is unknown.

A DERELICT GROOM.
II FAIL n MEET IH 8WEITIE.IT AT Til
APN1NTEI Mill.
The Minister, Maaleians and Onesta As
semble, Bat They Disperse la Disgust-Mrs.
DenueeTla Net Serry.
The lower nnd of Seuth Queen street waa
In a great state of excitement en Thursday
evening.
The cause was a marriage ceremony
booked for the evening which did net take
place becauae the groom failed te put In au
appearance
The name of the bride-te-be Is Sadla
Denues, and her choice of a matrimonial
partner waa Harry Nichols, a young man
whose residence Is In this city but who haa
bean working In Philadelphia ler some
time past
Nichols was at the borne of his Intended
In tbe afternoon and drank freely. He
left about supper time and aald be would
go te his bearding heuse and dress for the
greatest event ei uis me.
At the time announced for the ceremony
a clergyman was en hand te tie the nuptial
knot, the friends or the bride had assembled
and all tbat waa lacking was the groom.
After waiting beyond the time designa
ted, the company began te get uneasy, and
finally the clergyman left The musicians
engaged for tbe occasion tarried until a
late hour, but still be falled te come, and
finally they lea in disgust
About 11 o'clock, however, the groom
put In an appoarance. He was "boozy."
His explanation te his prospective mother-in-law
was that a mtnlen of the law had
him In durance vile for having betrayed
another woman. This explanation riled
the prospective mether-tn-law and she
forthwith "bounced" Nlchel from the
heuse and told hltn never te oemo back
again.
His story about being arrested was a
myth. The records de net show that he
waa In custody. But the records show
thst he falled te take euta marriage license.
He ellher did net knew that ene was
needed, did net Intend te marry the girl or
get drunk and forget te get the necessary
legal papers te enable him te get married.
The failure of the marriage te come off Is
the thome of conversation in the southern
part ofthe city and the prospective bride
has the sympathy or her neighbors, who
have ceme te the conclusion tbat she made
a narrow escape.
Mr. Dana's Reply te Mr. CleveUud.
In reply te Mr. Cleveland's sharp criti
cism of Editor Dana tbe Sun te-day con
tains the fullewlug artlcle under tbe
head:
" " nCMAnRS TO A COWAnilLY tiAn."
" The stuffed prophet of William street,
In a rage or wounded vanity, Is thus re re
eorted: 'There Is only ene thing,' Mr.
Cleveland resumed, and a tender expres
sion lit up his race, ' tbat I care anything
about In these attacks; they are net con cen con
flned te myseir. It seems tbat the senile
Dana does net confine his worfare te men.
Women are net free rrem his dastardly
assaults. Mrs. Cloveland hss net escaped.
It Is bad enough for Dana te print his lying
statements regarding myself, but it la
Infinitely mera cowardly and dastardly for
blm te Include, as he has done, my wlfe In
his attacks. Nothing could be mere con cen con
temptlblo or se far removed from all In
stlncw of manhood.'"
"Te ue habitual reader or the Sun is it
necessary te say that this Is a cowardly lie.
It is net tbe less a He bocause It Is uttered
by a man who haa been president or tbe
United States. It Is net less cowardly be
cause It proceeds rrem a husband whose In
feriority in social, moral and Intellectual
qualities Is recognized by all who knew
the admirable woman linked te blm by tbe
name they bear In common.
"Passing ever tbe blackguard epithets
In which the half-drunken deputy sherlff
reappears and finds his only possible re
treat, we come te the mere serious matter.
Te proveko sympathy for himself, Mr.
Cleveland deliberately draws the- name or
his wlfe Inte an interview Intended
for publication, charging the Sun with
an offense which, if tbe charge Is true,
ought te rendertbis nowspaper odious te
every gentlemsn en Manhattan Island, te
every honorable man who respects woman
hood. The charge Is false, and Mr. Cleve Clevo Clove
land knew It was false when he uttered It
" There Is but one answer that we care te
make. We Invite Mr. Cleveland te
point te a line or a word that ever
appeared III the Sun concerning the
geed woman whose name be thus do de
irruina. which lustlfles. d I recti v or in
directly, tbe statement contained in tbe
paragraph quoted above If he cannot de
that and be cannot we In vlte the attention
of tbe community te tbe portrait of a selfish
poltroon, an unworthy husband, about
whose conduct in tills affair nothing can be
said by any person of sensitive preemptions
that will net leave en the coarse and
swollen face, peeping rrem behind the edge
or bis wife's garments, a red mark like tbe
sting of a whip lash. "

FOR GUNS AND 1'UOJECTII.ES.
The Steel Produced by a Heading Works
Considered the Hest,
The erdnance bureau at Washington has
Issued a call for bids for furnishing monthly
supplies of 25,000 pounds or steel for the
use or the bureau, In which It Is stipulated
that the specimens e( steel produced at tbe
Carpenter steel works In Readlng, and en
exhibition at the bureau, shall be the
standard of quality.
Tbe ordnance bureau has already thor
oughly tested various specimens of steel
with a view te their availability foruse In
the manufacture or crucible steel guns, the
prescribed requirements being, 80,000
pounds tenslte strength, elastle limit
48,000 pounds. The spocimens or Carpen
ter steel tested showed, untempered,
120,000 pounds tonslle strength, elastle
limit 87,000 pounds. The same steel, tem
pered, showed a tonslle strength of 101,
000 pounds, elastle limit 101,000 pounds,
satisfying the expert official Judges that
the Carpenter steel Is far superior te
any ever tried by the government This
teat haa already resulted lu an order by the
ordnance bureau or ferglngs forflve guns
for firing testa te be furnished at once, and
which are new being manufaettped at tbe
Carpenter works In Reading, together with
an invitation or proposals for .thirty addi
tional, or various sites, the aggregate
amounting te some 150 tens.
The steel armor-piercing projectiles aeme
time age ordered by the government have
been finished, and .uespeciinena forwarded
te Washington from the Carpenter works
have proved superior te all or tbe many
speclmens forwsrded by ether steel manu
facturers for trial by the ordinance bureau.
In an outalde test made or small sizes,
with nine competitors, eleven or the pro pre pro
jectlles made or Carpenter steel succes
sively pierced the armor plates, nlne or
them going entirely through without frac
ture, while In a majority or cases the ether
projectiles were shattered te pieces agalntt
the plates, or these projectlles about 2,000
a month will be requlredby the bureau,
Involving a monthly consumption or 150,
000 pounds or steel.
Atthogevo-nmentnrsanftlsat.Watorvllet,
N. Y., and at Springfield, Mass.,operatlons
are going en In testing the Carpenter steels
wl h a view te determining their availa
bility for the use or tbe war department
In a sword test recently made at the Spring
field arsenal, a sword blade made of Car
S enter steel wss bent ever'a barrel se as te
escrlbe a half-cllrcle, upwards or two
hundred times without destroying Its elas
ticity, and the material waa proneunood by
the armerers superior te any ethor kuewn
for tbe manufacture of sword blade.
An official test or the Carpenter tool steel,
recently made, ahowed that " It hordens
well In either cold or warm water or oil,
and doea net crack after repeated heatings
or twist In cooling." The endurance or
these tools In working hard castings" Is
net less than 100 per cent, groater than that
or any ether steel new In use," each tool
having sustained 10 hours steady service
without rosharpenlng, the tool advancing
one-tenth or an Inch each revolution, at a
speed or 20 feet per inlnute, and en oil
tomperod steel ferglngs one-twentletb of
anlncb,thodepthercutbelngtbroo-olghths
or an Inch, at a speed eris feet per minute,
the tool lasting evor clx hours without
grinding, a gain of at toast 100 per cent
ever all ether tool steels.
An extension of the carpenter works Is
new being built for casting, while the main
building Is being oxtendod te accommo
date the iron department Eighteen fur
naces for the melting plant have been com cem
fileted, and te de the forging required by
he government order referred te, a 2,500
pound and a 20,000 pound steam hammer
are new being put up. The rolling mills
and engines are In foil and perfect opera
tion, while the puddling furnaces are en
tne ground and tee worn or euuuing ami

, LIFE IN HIIIEKIA.
Mr. Keunan, tbe Famous Traveler, Leo Lee Leo
tures About It.
Mr. Geerge Kennandollverod, last night,
te a geed audlence In the court house, hi
lecture descriptive of his visit te the mlues
or Kara, In Siberia. The matter or his
locture Is substantially the same as tbat
already published by Mr. Kennan In the
Century Magatine. He was In the employ
ment or this ungazlne when be in ule Id s
Jeurneys In Russia, and the six loctures
which he has this wluter beeu se sue.
cessfelly giving have nil been printed
heroteforo In the pages of the Century
whero our readers may find them. We de
net tborefero find it nocessftry te give an
abstract of Mr. Kennan's statements. This
could net In fact be dene with any satisfac
tion as the whele story Is Interesting. The
Journey te the mines of Kara, which are
placer geld mines te which political and
criminal Russian convicts are condemned,
was undertaken by Mr. Kennan toward
the close of 1885. Ue was but a few days at
Kara, wbere he was ledged In tbe
resldonce or tbe Russian governor or
tbe convict prison. This governor bad
telegraphic Instructions net te allow Mr.
Kennau te communicate with tbe political
convicts snd be watched blm very closely.
But Mr. Kennan threw blm off bis guard
by pretending te have no Interest In tbe
political convicts ; but when tbe governor
went away after a few days te meet an
engagement, Kennan seized the oppor
tunity te soe the prisoners te whom he had
letters and who lived outside the regular
prison, en tickets of leave. He doscrlbed
very graphically their condition, and made
agreatimprosslen by retlrlng te put en
tbe prison dress, In which and Its clanking
chains he made a sonsatlen when he re
turned.
Mr. Kennan speke quietly, in a strong
voice, well medulated, without gesticulaj
tlen and entirely from memory. His
work wilt certalnly be a powerful agent In
moving public opluien In this country
against tbe Russian ajpvernment whose
oppression or us political convicts it se
vividly depicts.
NINETY-ONE YEARS OLD.
Mrs. Mary Faealuy Reaches That Ad

Mrs. Mary Faegley was 91 years old en
Thursday, and in honor of the ovent a
number of her graudchildren presentcd
ber with gifts. Many neighbors called en
her snd chatted with heron reminiscences
or the long age. She Is ene or the eldest
residents or Lancaster, and Is u Vury actlve
woman, considering her great age. She
was born In this city In 1709, and bas
reslded here all ber long life. She was lea
a widow when a young woman and never
remarried.
Her children are Sarah A. Cogley, wife
or Jeseph M. Cogley the veteran printer;
Jehn Fcagley, or Ne. 315 North Queen
street ; Henry Faegley, deceased, and Mrs.
Anna Louisa Nerbeck, wife or Jacob II.
Norbeck, the well known carriage builder.
Mrs. Faegtey has 17 grandchildren living
and 12 dead, and 21 greatgrandchildren
living. She went te live with ber daughter,
Mrs. Jacob II. Nerbeck, in tbe spring of
1850, and since that tlme she has made her
borne thore. The old lady Is very domestic
In her disposition and is never satisfied
when away from her home.
Up te a few years age her rocelloctlon
of Lancaster aud IU people, at they were
when she was young, was remarkably
geed. Her description or the changes that
have takeu place as she used te relate them
seem almefct marvelous. The past few
years her mind has been moreor less af
