A movementison foot to have the Soldiers
and Sailors Orphans' Schools reopened for
the admission of pupils. The idea is favored
by Governor Beaver, -who believes that the
orphans of soldiers need educating now as
much as those who were born some years
before them. The Governor has angered
some niariufacturers by suggesting that their
capital stock should be taxed. Appropria
tions will probably be made by the present
Legislature for the second geological sur
vey and the State Normal schools. Repub
licans are congratulating themselves on the
non-passage of the apportionment hill last
session, by which they would have lost four
Senators.
rsrrciAL telegram to tax uispATcn.l
Hakeisburg, January 5. The action of
the committee of the Grand Army of the
Republic in recommending the passage of
an act looking to the education and main
tenance of nearly all the children of soldiers
and sailors now in the several orphans'
schools of the State until they shall have
arrived at the age of 16 years, has not put
an end to the purpose of persons financially
interested in these institutions tc have them
reopened for the admission of new pupils.
None have been admitted since June 1,
1887. as an act passed in that year barred
any further accessions to the rolls after that
date. The same law provided for the close
of the schools on the 1st of June, 1890.
The Grand Army of the Republic, which
has taken much interest in the proper care
of the destitute children of soldiers, has
come to the conclusion that a great hardship
would be imposed upon the younger pupils
uv aiscnarging mem in J une, lB'JU, ana a
committee appointed by it has recommended
that the institutions 'finally terminate on
June 1, 1895, by which time nearly all now
in the schools would be 16 years old and
over.
ISECOMJIEXDATIOtfs WILL BE EATIFIED.
The recommendations of the committee
will no doubt be ratified at the meeting of
the Grand Encampment at Erie to be held
soon, unless that body should listen to tho
appeals being made tor the reopening of the
schools.
Governor Beaver has given the managers
of these institutions great .encouragement
in that portion of his mess'age referring to
to the soldiers' orphan schools, in which he
says: "It is difficult to see why any dis
tinction should be made among these chil
dren. Those who are orphans now are as
needy and deserving as those who received
the benefits of the svstem ten or more years
ago."
This argument will be used industriouslv
iby the managers of the schools with tlie
Grand Army in the hope of having it de
'clare at its next encampment in favor of re
opening the schools. They claim that the
stroug and increasing demand made by
parents and friends of soldiers' children
who have been barred out of schools, for
new legislation providing for additional
admissions, will have a salutary effect on
the Grand Army
PBESSUKE OX THE GEASD AEJIT.
An individual who profits by these schools
pecuniarily remarked recently that the
Grand Army would not be able to withstand
thepressure that would be brought to bear
on it in the interest of the reopening of the
schools. So long as children of soldiers and
sailors were admitted on proof that they
were destitute, there was no necessity to in
voke the Grand Army's aid, but since the
Legislature has shut out children not old
enough to enter the schools before the time
fixedfor the termination of admissions, and
deprived them of the privileges enjoyed by
iuuscuu jmu me gooa iuck to oe Dorn in
advance of them, the different posts in the
State are said to have received many urgent
appeals for the accommodation of these un
fortunate children. This pressure, said the
gentleman referred to, will increase In in
tensity as the number of destitute" children
of soldiers and sailors increases, and is like
ly to change the purposeof the GrandArmy
not to ask lor the reopening of the schools.
If the advocates of the extension of the sys
tem of soldiers' orphan schools should 'be
successful, it could be made to last at least
ten years longer, entailing an aggregate ex
pense of the State of between 511,000,000
and 512,000,000.

rSrZCXM. TU.IOKAX TO THE DISPATCH.
Habbisbitkg, January 5. Another de
mand tt ill be made this winter for an ap
propriation tocontinue the second geological
survey, which has already cost the State
about 51,300,000. This was one of the in
stitutions created with Jthe understanding
that its duration of lift would be brief, but
the Legislature, for many years, has regu
larly made an appropriation for its con
tinuance, and the chances, are that it will
not depart from its custom during the pres
ent session.
The State Normal schools, like the second
ecological survey, promises to be perpetual
beneficiaries of the State, notwithstanding
the fact that when the first appropriation
was made to put them in operation, the
argument was ireely used that they would be
self-sustaining. The State is still paying
them 550,000 a year to keep them afloat, and
an appropriation ol 5100,000, if not more, by
the present Legislature, to maintain them
the next two years is almost certain.

tSFECIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
Hakkisbubg, January 5. The Republi
cans in the Legislature are congratulating
themselves on the fact that the Senatorial
apportionment of two years ago did not
pass. Senator Cooper was then ot the opin
ion that the bill would lose the Republicans
two Senators, but if it had been in operation
at the last election the party would have
four less members of the Senate than the
roll now shows.
No bill apportioning the State into Sena
torial districts will be passed at this session,
as the taking of the United States census is
too near at hand (1890) to justify the appor
tionment so long delayed.
MR. TORREY&O.V TACKLED.
Whan the law was parsed providing for
the education and maintenance of soldiers
and sailors' orphans, it was supposed that
the system established would end in about
12 years, the admissions being then con
fined to children whose fathers had died in
the service of their country. The liberaliza
tion of the original act, by supplementary
legislation at various times, resulted in con
tinuing the system 15 years beyond the
time contemplated by the legislation which
started it, and if the movement being pushed
to reopen the schools should be successful,
25 years would be added to the time at which
the State's beneficence to the children of
Union soldiers and sailors was to have
ended.
The schools were started in April,
1865, and until December 1, of that year,
$103,000 had been expended on them. The
expenses the two following years reached an
average of S310.000. For the year ended
June 1. 1869, they amounted to $500,000,and
the next vear to 5514,000. There was a
drop of 55,000 the following year, and from
that tsme to June 1, 1888, the expenses an
nually ranged from 303.000 to W7nnn
The total cost of the system to June 1, 1888.
was 58,993,919 02, while there remained a
balance to the credit of the Soldiers' or
phan department of 5346,022 77. making an
aggregate appropriation bv the State of
59,290,753 73. The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company made the first contribution
toward the establishment of these schools
amounting to 550,000. '
A Strong and Foimcd Answer to tho DIc-
Kecsportcr' Statement.
To the Sporting Editor of the Dispatch:
Thursday morning's DlSPATcn contained an
article in the sporting column which rather re
flected on the standing and staDtllty of the
Allegheny County League, and was entirely un
called for, and came from a source which is
certainly not the fountain head of sporting and
baseball knowledge. Mr. Torreyson, although
a genial gentleman, is certainly not a success as
a baseball manager, and, therefore, his opinion
or expression of his opinion on the county
league can be rated accordingly.
In the Erst place, the McKeeport Club was
not solicited to become a member of the
league, but was simply asked to become an ap
plicant for membership, and to take their
chances with other applicants, when their ap
plication would be voted on at the initial meet
ing of the league, which will take place some
time in the latter part of January. The four
clubs composing the County League will decide
who the successful applicants will be, aud thn
chances of JIcKee'port becoming a member
were decidedly slight, as most of the delegates
who will represent their respective clubs at the
meeting have experienced some of Mr. Torrey
son's management or rather mismanagement
and feel decidedly sore on that point.
Mr. Torre son made rather a broad state
ment in asserting that none of the present club,
with the exception of the iJast End Athletics,
were solvent. The writer for one will say that
the Homestead club took in three times the
amount of money at one game last summer
that the McKeesport club would take in two
or three games, and it goes without saying, the
East End Athletics did even better on their
onn grounds. As for the Braddocks and Du
qucsnes, of course, they were under a disad
vantage on account of not having enclosed
grounds, but tney w ere both backed by respon
sible parties, who always had their respective
teams on the field on time and always had
enough money to pay their car fare. The
County League of the season of 18S7 was a suc
cess in everysparticular, and the only reason to
which we can attribute Mr. Torreyson's poor
upiniun oi me organization is mat it is tne oia
story of sour crapes, and Mr. T. is huffed that
his club was not one of the charter members.
Although not caring to throw cold water on a
new organization, still Mr. Torrevson saying he
would prefer to join the Western Pennsylvania
League to the local one, brings up the question
of the probable success of this new league.
According to the writer's opinion (and he has
had experience in nearly all the towns belong
ing to the Western Pennsylvania League) the
ijciiKue vriu not De in existence oy August 1,
1SS9, that is, it will not hare Its present mem
bership, and someone will be out of pocket con
siderably. Thelackofproperrailroad facilities,
no enclosed grounds and inexperience are
bound to tell. Hoping, however, that this
prophecy will not come true to our brother
organization, and living in the expectation of
seeing the amateur base ball season of '9 in
Pittsburg and vicinity boom far beyond previ
ous seasons, I remain,
YOUK AMATEUE COKBESPONDENT.
The suburban borough of Braddock,
which, by the way, wants to become a part
of the greater city of Pittsburg, is occupied
mainly by the employes of the great milta
and forges which lie within its boundary
lines. Physical strength may " seem to
many, under these circumstances, to be the
predominating power. Yet with it there is
enough intellectuality and acumen to col
lect one of the finest public libraries in the
country. An excellent judge, who had
glanced over the catalogue of books which
had been culled, says that the selection re
flects great credit upon the committee in
charge of the work.
The Carnegie Free Library at Braddock
will be thrown open to the public within a
short time. The choice of the selection of
books was not an easy one, as there was no
nucleus of a library around which the sub
stantial additions could be gathered.
Chairman Gailey, of the committee, wrote
to the leading publishers, and from the cata
logue of works which he received from
them
A LIBKAIit WAS SELECTED.
The purchase of these books devolved
upon Mr. H. Watts, the Wood street book
seller. There are between 1,700 and 1,800
volumes. A reporter called at his store
yesterday in order to learn about the style
of reading material selected. Mr. Watts
was very enthusiastic over the work accom
plished, and also sounded high praises for
the class of books chosen for the Braddock
reading rooms.
The catalogue includes the best of every
class of works. Books on manufacturing
and mechanical arts occupy a high posi
tion. The sciences are not forgotten, and a
list ot the most learned men s works were
chosen. The finer arts are represented, and
books of travel are carefully selected.
Biographies are a favorite, and there are
more of this class of works than any other,
with fiction excepted. The latter class of
writings is widely varied, and includes
about every style of novel, from the works
of "The Duchess" and E. P. Roe, to the
novel of Dickens, Scott, Holmes, Howells
and Thackeray. The higher classes of nov
els are the favorites. Works which have a
pernicious and degrading tendency are
careiully excluded. Xue list is not, how
ever, yet completed.
WORKS EEALLY INSTEUCTIVB.'
There is an unusnally large number of
works of reference, dictionaries and books
of that style. Religious writings are evi
dently not very popular, as this list is not
large. The best selection of histories ob
tainable has been made.
Lovers of poetry will be regaled with the
writings of Longfellow, Byron, Tennyson,
Burns and a long list of others of the best
English and American poets. The essays of
uarnsie, Emerson ana a cost ot others will
be found on the shelves. The list of miscel
laneous works is very large, and, like the
other parts of the library, carefully chosen.
The volumes are of the best editions. Mr.
"Watts was told to purchase none but the
best, and that no cheap editions were wanted.
The 1,700 books already bought will cost
about 53,000. The books are to be delivered
at Braddock by January 15, and the open
ing of the building will take place as soon
alter this date as possible. Mr. Andrew
Carnegie, the donor of the building and li
brary, will make an address, as will also
several prominent citizens of Braddock.
Convicted of Murdering McCausIand, He
Aaka for Another Trial.
R. F. Downey, of Waynesburg, who
prosecuted George Clark for the murder of
Drover McCausIand, wenj to Philadelphia
last night to represent the Commonwealth
in the appeal of Clark 'for a new trial before
the Supreme Court
Clark was convicted of murder in the first
degree, but will appeal for two reasons: A
true bill was' found against him pending an
.iimliratinn for a writ of habeas corpus, and
second, the Sheriff who made the informa
tion against him also made up the jury
panel.
Mr. Downey stated that the trial of
Clark's brothers, on a charge of complicity
in the murder of McCausIand, will begin at
Waynesburg a week from to-morrow.

Manager Jones Replica to Charges Made
Against the County Lcngnc.
The managers of the Homestead Baseball
Club are very much incensed over an article
that appeared In Thursaay's Dispatch,
wherein Frank Torreyson jnal.es the statement
that 4lthe East End Athletics is the only really
solvent Club In the Allegheny County League,
and one great fault of tho County Lcarue clubs
is that they are so poor they cannot be depend
ed upon to fulfill their engagements. Their
usual excuse is they haven't their carfare."
Manager Jones sajs that the Homestead club
is backed by the Riverside Park Company, and
he thinks the club is as solvent as even Mr.
Torrcjson could wish. He states further that
every club tisiting Homestead last season,
without exception, had their car fare paid bv
his club. Iot one club belonging to the
league ever missed an engagement during the
season. In one instance, he says, the Home
stead club had their car fare guaranteed by
the Quicksteps, of Johnstown, aud when they
visited that place the Quicksteps refused
eithei to play or pay their guarantee, and ho
was out of pocket Sffl. That is the only failure
in paying car fare that came to his notice.

fKrlCTALTXLEGKAM TO THE DIsrATCH.1
Harkisbitbo, January 5. In discussing
the tax legislation of the State, in his mes
sage, Governor Beaver has given offense to
manufacturing corporations, whose capital
slock the revenue act of 1885 exempts from
taxation. "While the Governor does not
name these corporations as having been
wrongfully relieved of taxation, he makes
the sweeping declaration that the "exemp
tions heretofore attempted have been made
not only without authority but are, the Con
stitution says, absolutely void."
The capital stock of manufacturing cor
porations is included among the subjects to
which he refers in his message when he
says: "If (in addition to the changes which
the Governor recommends in the act of 1879)
provision were made for the collection of
taxes lrom these several species of property
declared to be exempt by the Legislature,
and such as are in effect exempt because not
mentioned in existing legislation, we tfould
have ample revenue for -nil the ordinary
..purposes of the Commonwealth, and couli'

RECALLS OLD TIMES.
Jimmy Grimhnw, the Once Famous Jockey,
Dies in Bohemia. '
The English jockey James Gnmshaw, the
Archer of his time, died at Pardubitz,
Bohemia, on December 12. The cause of death
was cancer, from which he had been a great
sufferer for some time previously. Until sick
ness overtook him his skill as a rider never
deserted him, and hef rode and trained in
Germany, Austria and Russia with great suc
cess. The expense attending the medical and
Bnrglcal treatment of his malady absorbed all
bis money, and he died leaving a widow and six
cnuaren unproviaea lor. in the "sixties"
Grimshaw was tho fashionable licht-weieht of
the day, and nis skill in the saddle caused his
services to be in much request In 18G5, out of
861 mounts he rode 114 winners. His brother
Henry, who came to such an untoward end
through being thrown out of a cig. was also a
well-known jockey in his time, hut thnngh he
rode Gladiatcur to victory In theDerbv, he was
never the rage like his younger brother, James
Urimshaw's chief attributes were judgment
and knowledge of pace, added to unusual
strength lor his weight, and it was bv this
means that he was often, as in the case of
Tlialestris In tne Cesarewitch, enabled to hold
his horse together, and go on when other lads
were exhausted.
When in his prime he was a perfect little
demon in getting off, and when the flag was
low ercd it was hard if he did not steal a length
or so His nearest approach to success in the
Derby was a second on Marksman in Hermit's
sensational year, but he piloted Hawthorndcn
to victory in the St. Leger in 1670. and had the
successful mount on Hester in the One Thou
sand of the same season. He won the (Vsare

A Common Cold
Is a serious thing. It is often the forerunner of
consumption and death. Unless attended to in
the beginning, it is apu to bring on some com
plication or other from which the patient may
experience much suffering. Nerer allow a cough
or a coin to go a day without attending to it.
Maqke's Emdxsio is beyond all doubt the
finest preparation for a cough or cold that was
erer compounded. Its operation is mild and
natural, and the thousands of coughs and colds
that have yielded to this remedy give it a
prestige which is not eyen approached by all
the so-called cough remedies that have been in
the market for a lifetime. No person who tries
MAGEE'8 EMULSION
for a common cough or cold will ever use
another bottle of those sickening cough balsams
or cough killers.
Bronchitis
YESTERDAY our stores were crowded, jammed, thronged, packed. Our
"WHITE OPENING did it. All the ladies seemed delighted with our beautiful
display and low prices. The only complaints were that we limit the quantities
which we will sell to any one customer. "We were asked: ,rWhy do you refuse
to sell more than ten yards of muslin to one purchaser?" "Why will you sell
only three corset covers to one buyer?" '"Why do you decline to furnish mora
than four gowns to any one customer?"
THIS IS OUR ANSWER:
He would be a poor General who should supply the enemy with the cannons
and guns, and powder and shot, and ammunitions of war; to be used against him
self. Wfe should be poor merchants to allow dealers to pick up the bargains
which we have tepured for the benefit of our customers. "We do not propose to
furnish dealers with goods at less prices than they ean go into the Eastern mar
keta and buy them, and thus in a short time exhaust our stock, and disappoint
our customers. Many of these goods were bought and paid tor months ago for tha
very purpose of making
A Great January Boom!
And they are doing it. Is it a wonder with such prices:

' Do You Suffer
From rheumatism7 If so, read tho following
"voluntary tribute" from a reliable, conscien
tious man, which appeared in the Geneva. N
Y., Gazette, Jan. 21, 1S87, entirely unknown to
us till after its publication:
'"Without doubt a large proportion of those
who have passed the meridian of life suffer
more or less from rheumatism. Up to three
winters ago I had never known what sickness
or pain was; but during the fall and winter of
1881, 1 had a slight attack of rheumatism which,
however, passed off toward spring, but the fol
lowing winter it reappeared with ereater sever
ity. Not desiring to become cnppledl thought
I would try Hood's Sarsaparilla. I took three
bottles in all, and 1 am pleased to say the rheu
matic pains ceased, my appetite and digestion
became better, and my general health ereatly
improved. I am flrmly convinced that Hood's
Sarsaparilla effected a cure in my case, as I
have, felt no recurrence of the blood disease."
