TbTAETIKG WITH ONE COLOBED PUPIL
At tbe termination of the closing exercises
of the "Western Pennsylvania Institution
' for the .ueafan&Dumb at Edgewood to-day,
Ebt. John G. Brown, D. D., who has been
the Principal of the-school for the last four
years, and who is also the founder of the in
- stitution, will seTer his active connection
with it, and retire to the rest and seclusion
which the arduous labors of the last 21
years call lor.
In Dr. Brown the history of ths institu
tion for the deaf and dumb in Western
Pennsylvania is personified. It was he who
first commenced to take an interest in the
sadly affllctci and through his energy Western
Pennsylvania has been emiched by a fountain
i of learning which is fast spreading its knowl
edge all over the country. ReT. Dr. Brown
was formerly pastor of the Third U. P, Church
in Pittsburg. In connection with that church
there was also a Sabbath school, and in the
Sabbath school the pastor fonnd a colored boy
who was deaf and dumb. From his natural
lOTe for, children and his desire to help them,
the pastor took at once a great Interest In the
little mute, and tried to get somebody who
conld teach deaf and dumb children. After a
while a deaf and dumb Sabbath school was
started, and the late Sir. Joel Kerr became
Superintendent thereof.
HOW IT GBEW.
But as soon as it became known that an op
portunity of that kind could be had in Pitts
burg the number of scholars grew until there
were 1 of them.
Then Dr. Brown conceived the idea of start
ing a day school. It was established at last in
1S89 in the First ward schoolhouseand was the
first institution of Its kind In America. Bat
almost daily new Interests were awakened for
the benefit of the mute children. Dr. Brown
received subscriptions from the ladles In his
church and others contributed to a fund, with
which the ardent doctor at last started a
home for deaf and dumb on "H'ylie avenne.
yu ue pnpus increased, nowever, tne aeznana
for an Institution became more and more ap
parent. The legislature was asked to grant
them an appropriation. But the request was
made In vain for five years, until in 1R76 Dr.
Brown succeeded In obtaining a sufficient
amount from the State to maintain and educate
60 deaf and dumb children.
Then the school moved to Turtle Creek,
wbeia a building was secured, which had
formerly been a hotel and then a schoolbouse.
Here Dr. Brown had three teachers and 0
pupils, and thoy remained there until ISSi. In
the meantime Mr. James Kelly, the father of
Wilkinsburg, had donated 10 acres of land to
the deaf and dumb school. This land was
situated in Edgewood and when, soon after, the
Pennsylvania railroad wanted to buy theTurtle
Creek property the Board of Trustee, which
bad already been appointed over the deaf and
dumb interests, sold the property for $15,000.
AT THE IPEESEST.
- Then a general subscription was started by
the citizens of Pittsburg and Allegheny, and
J60.000 were collected. To this amount the
State added another 00,000, and with that sum
the present magnificent building was erected
and 16 acres of ground were bought lor the
purpose. In 1SS5 the new institution was
started and Dr. Brown then became principal.
Ever since the institution has increased in thn
number of students, until there are to-day 170

WHY THE GOLD GOES.
France Wants It and Gets It From Us How
We Are Wonted in n Trad:.
WASHiXGTOjr, June 24. Director of the
Hint Kimball was questioned to-day with
regard to the recent heavy exportations of
gold from New York, and he said they were
caused by demands from France, a premium
having been offered bv the Bank of Prance.
"About the 1st j of June," said the director,
"the Bank of England raised, by half a
penny an ounce, the price at which it would
sell French gold coins, and recourse has
been had to the United States, where, under
the law of Hay 26, 1882, gold coin can be ex
changed at the coinage mints and the
assay office at New York in sums of $5,000
and upward, free of charge, and without
loss on account of the wear of the com,
which is suffered where coin in place of bars
is dealt with."
The director thinks this law should be re
pealed, or else amended so as to allow of a
bar charge, and says: "At present the stock
of bars at the assay office in New York is
the most available supply in the world for
the world's benefit rather that of the United
States. As an ordinary exchange opera
tion rates of exchange have been against
exportation of gold to France both from
London and New York,

thoroughly acquainted with all the different
methods of instructing the deaf and dumb. He
says that the methods have somewhat changed

in instruction of the mute, but on the whole
the system is just the same as ever.
When Dr. Brown was asked why he desired
to resign from the institution, he stated:

is that for the first time the books have been
handed to the City Treasurer footed up, and
that he will be held accountable, and that this
is the cause ot his objection to transfers.

allow the transfer and that he (Hetzel) is
backed in his opinion by Controller Brown who
framed the ordinance. Assessor Brown thinks
that as the transfers are allowed1 in Pittsburg
they might also be in Allegheny. Hes tates that
the assessors cannot know that property has
been sold unless they are notified by the seller.
He regards the matter simply as an accommo

Constipation,
IF not remedied in season, is liable to
become habitual and chronic. Dras
tic purgatives, by weakening the bowels,
confirm, rather than cure, the evil.
Ayer's Pills, being mild, effective, and
strengthening in their action, are gener
ally recommended by the faculty as the
best ot aperients.
"Having been subject, for veavs, to
constipation, without being abls to find
mucn reiiei, x at last trieu .ayer s .ruts.
I deem it both a duty and a pleasure
to testify that I have derived great ben
efit from their use. for over two yean
past IJtmvo taken one ot these pills
every night before retiring. I would not
willingly be- without them." G. "W.
Bowman, 20 East Main fit, Carlisle, Pa.
" I have been taking Ayer's Pills and
using them in my family since 1857, and
cheerfully recommend them to all in
need of a safe bat effectual cathartic"
John M. Boggs, Louisville, Ky.
'Tor eight years I was afflicted with
constipation, which at last became so
bad that tbe doctors could do 110 mora
for me. Then I began to take Ayer'a
Pills, and soon the bowelx recovered
their natural and regular action, so that
now I am in excellent health." S. h.
Iioughbridge, Bryan, Texas.
" Having used Ayer'a Pills, with good
results, I fully indorse them for the pur
poses for which they are recommended."
