THE PITTSBURG, ' -DISPATCH, ? .SUNDAY.
1889PT
SEPTEMBER 22;
THEIR LAST CHANCE.
The Lincoln School Board Must Elect
That Teacher by Saturday
OE ELSE STEP DOWN AND OUT.
That is the Decree of Judge "White as to the
School Deadlock.
GENERAL SEWS OF THE COUXTI COURTS
An argument was had before Judge
White yesterday afternoon on the petition
of citizens of the Twenty-first ward, asking
lor the removal ot the school directors of the
Lincoln sub-district ot the Twenty-first
ward. The directors are Messrs. McLaugh
lin, Candr, Brycc, Edwards, Ward and
Thompson. The trouble is caused by the
board dividing on the election of Miss
Emily Gardner as writing teacher of the
school. Messrs. Edwards AVard ??,d
Thompson are firm for Miss Gardner, while
Messrs. McLaughlin, Candy and Brvce
are opposed to her election and de
sire the election of Miss McCormick.
Miss Gardner's supporters are -willing to
elect Miss McCormick to the position of
teacher, but desire Miss Gardner's retention
as writing teacher. The deadlock occa
sioned the filinc of the petition to have the
directors compelled to do their duty and
elect the full quota of teachers, 23, the num
ber being two short, or else have others ap
pointed who would do so.
John S. Eobb, Esq., filed an answer on
the part of Messrs. Edwards, "Ward and
Thompson, asserting they are willing to
elect Miss Gardner and Miss McCormick,
and that the former is fully competent for
the position, having held it for seven years,
while Miss McCormick is not competent
They blame the trouble ou the perversity of
the other three directors.
Arch. Eowand. Esq., filed the answer of
the other side. They claim that Mi-s Gard
ner is not capable of filling the position by
reason of her quick temper, rendering the
scholars nervous s.nd irritable. They lay
the cause of the deadlock at the door of the
other directors.
J. McF. Carpenter, Esq.. presented the
case to Judge "White. He argued on behalf
of the residents of the ward that all they de
sired was to have the board elect some
teacher so that they would have the full
quota and the children not suffer. If they
would not do their duty they desired the
Court to remove thein and appoint some one
who would.
Messsrs. Bobb and Kowand made argu
ments tor their respective clients. Judge
"White said that he would let the case go
over until next Saturday. If the full num
ber of teachers was not elected by that time
he would declare the seats of trie directors
vacant. He would not decide as to the case
of Miss Gardner, but would say that it is
unfortunate whenever a question of church
membership arises.
Mr. Bowand Ve deny that it is a ques
tion ot religion. That "is only an allega
tion of Mr. Bobb's and not in the testi
mony. Mr. Eobb "We will make it part of the
testimony.
Judge White The singular part of it is
that she has been a teacher for seven years
and you only now find out her incom
petency. Continuing, Judge "White said that it was
the bounden dnty of the directors to elect
the teachers. They had no business to dis
agree on a question and vote 3 to 3 for
months.
JOnX PETER EEIS' WIFE.
She Proved Too Much for Him Several
Divorce Cases.
John Peter Eeis entered suit for a divorce
from Mrs. Louisa A. Eeis. He states that

They were married in 1874 and separated in
188(1 She asserts that he went to live on
First street, Allegheny, with another
woc.au, calling themselves John Denney
and wife.
A decree of divorce was granted in the
case of Maggie L. Ziegler, of Brushton,

WHERE HE GOT IT.
Tbe Qaeatlon About That Hat 1 Answered
nt Last
"Where did you get that hat, where did
you get that tile?"
This musical query, like some merchants'
stocks, is growing a little shelf-worn, but it
becomes fresh as a daisy when addressed to
a young man on whose graceful head sitsa
new winter style from Euben's. There is
such a distinct block and pleasant gloss to
the winter hats Buben is just now taking
out of the boxes that it is not surprising the
fellows who have not yet "caught on"
should ask where the new style came from.
Technically treated, the winter hat is 5"by
IK. 5X by 1 or Sji by lJXiuches in depth.
It has a round, beavy brim, and runsin
copper, brown and black. The block is in
describable. You will recognize thefirst
one you see on the -street, however, princi
pally on account of the come-down in crown.
There's one new wrinkle for tLe younger
feliows. It is a black buckle wt in the band
at a point between side and rear.
The soft hat keeps up its prestige, and this
year will run largely toward Prince Karls.
Windsor caps are loud as ever, the plaids
and stripes being exceedingly gay. The
men like them, perhaps, on account of their
jaunty appearance.
The hatter who conceived this season's
style of silk tiles achieved a triumph. It's
the prettiest block turned out in along time.
The proportions are medium, the brim natty
and the crown a light, bell-shaped dome
which might be spoken of poetically as
fashion's throne. The deceased Mr. Crow
ley would have looked like a gentleman un
der one of these glossy tiles. The Kersey
runs in the same style and its exterior is not
so tender. Hence it is just a shade the more
popular hat
From Paris Exposition.
E. P. Eoberts & Sons will have on exhibi
tion this week their purchases made by their
buyer at the Exposition. The collection is
an exceedingly rare one, embracing some
superb goods in real brouze, Italian marble,
Sevres china and bricta.brac.', Eecent im
portations from London and Berlin will be
added to this display, and Messrs. Eoberts
& Sons promise to excel all previous efforts
on their opening.
Feminine Mustaches.
If a gentleman is the fortunate possessor
of a beard and mustache it is looked upon
as being a mark of personal beauty, but,
alas, if nature unkindly provides fair
woman with a mustache it is looked upon
as a scourge, something humiliating and
annoying, which is sure to attract attention
and excite remark. Dr. J. Van Dyck,
electro-surgeon.of Philadelphia, who has de
voted 13 vears of his life to the removal of
superfluous hair by the electric needle, will
be at Hotel Albemarle, Pittsburg, until
Thursday, Sept 26. See display ad. in an
other column.

A MUSIC HALL NEXT.
The Exposition Managers Talk
Building a Third Structure.
of
OYER 90,000 ATTENDED LAST WEEK
Some Kovel Attractions Engaged for Com
ing Days and Nights.
SOME PLANS LAID FOE A BIG WIND-UP
With the success of the Exposition an
assured fact, the managers are now talking
of building a music hall. Nothing definite
has Deen done, but the receipts from the
Exposition are so gratifying that a new hall
of this kind is now considered one of the
possibilities.
Last week the attendance was over 90,000,
and with new and splendid attractions
added it is expected the number will be
much larger in the future.
The jubilee singers from Storey's College,
Harper's Ferry, will sing a number of plan
tation songs between 3 and 4 o'clock to
morrow afternoon. If they prove success
ful they will be hired for the entire week.
The music of the Great Western Band will
not be interfered with, as the singers will
warble between the selections.
Efforts are also being made to have a
Welsh Eisteddfod, and the local choirs,
with many outside, will be at the Exposi
tion to sing sweetly. The arrangements
with the Welsh society of the city are about
completed. They will sing some day next
week. Thursday night, October 3,
will be devoted to German music.
The Robert Blum and Cecilia Societies
numbering 100 trained voices will be pres
ent The American night will soon come
off when only Yankee songs will be sung.
Some big event is being arranged for to
happen in the near future. It has been de.
cided to close the exhibition in a blaze of
glory, and the managers propose to dazzle the
SeoDle with a display in honor of tbe Veiled

HOPPER BROS. & CO.'S DISPLAY
From 307 Wood Street.
When yon think of it seriously you come
qnickly to the conclusion that it must be a very
large and very complete stock from which the
firm drew the materials for their exquisite dis
play in North Gallery: a display which has at
tracted all visitors and held them snell-bonnd
at its loveliness. No stand in the building
could bo more popular, and each da; makes it
more difficult to force your way through tbe
crowd, which, by common consent, fills the villa
and the aisle in front of it It is not just a par
lor, or a bedroom, or a halt, or a kitchen, or a
dining room, but it is all of them, so that every
department of a house is represented fully and
entirely; people have not time to stir op their
imaginations to fill up blanks and deficiencies;
theywanttoseeit all plainly tola before them;
and this has been fully and satisfactorily done,
in this case, anyway. It will compensate vis
itors to make a trip to the store. 307 Wood
street and go from floor to floor to see tbe
other fine things for which there was not room
in the display. A specialty with Messrs. Hop
per Bros. 4 Co. is to fill all orders at the time
promised; it spares annoyance to buyers, and
enables the business of the bouse to run not
only smoothly, but to accomplish double the
amount of those who do a little here and a
little there, and satisfy nobody. Take in the
villa, and accept the invitation to call upon
them in Wood street
PNEUMATIC SYflirHONT ORGANS AND
PIANOS.
E. G. Hays & Co., 75 Fifth Avenue.
Visitors are more andlnore surprised to find
that such very young men constitute the firm
that has the admirable display in South
Gallery. The instruments aro fine, the cases
in all the new fashionable woods are of tbe
handsomest and withal there is such a business
air about the whole that the greatest interest
is Telt in their evident success. Hays & Co.
are showing those splendid pianos made by
Hazleton Bros.. Lester and Matbushek. They
are in concert grands, cabinet crands and up
rights, with all to itself the wee little instru
ment called the "Petite Bijou," a perfect piano
for serenading patties, as it can be put in a
carriage. The woods employed in the cases
are bright rosewood. French walnutmahogany,
English burl oak and antique oak, just the
newest style, each a choice specimen of its
kind.
The "Pneumatic Symphony Organs" are of a
very high order ot merit They are a regular
keyboard organ, carrying the largest number
of reeds used, and tbey are also played by
simply moving the pedals with the feet or they
can be combined, producing great tone.
Every register of reeds acts upon the Pneu
matic organ, which is tbe case only with those
made by Wilcox & White. These organs are
invaluable, for no home need be without
music; and so lar as tne rneumatic organ is
concerned, tbe number of pieces of music that
can be played is without limit. It is only
needed to buy the "barrel." which means the
piece of music, slip it into place, pull the
"stop," move the feet, and the music will roll
on at your pleasure.
The regular business of this firm is going on
in its usual spirited manner at No. 75 Fifth
avenue.
REINECKE fc CO., 309 WOOD STREET.
Twin Displays Plnmblnc nnd Gas Fixtures
In Main Gallery, nnd Pumps In Mo-
cbanicalHo.il.
Crowds are observable at all times all about
the spaco in the gallery where the latest ex.
amples of scientific and sanitary plumbing
hold sway in connection with "The Gurney
Hot Water Heater." This appliance is largely
in demand as the best for dwellings, offices,
public buildings, conservatories, etc One ot
its claims to superiority is the equality of tem
perature in all parts or the building, and the
insuring of a warm bouse day and night as
there is not the fluctuation to the beat as with
steam, besides which, the heat radiated from
tbe pipes is of a mild, even and agreeable na
ture, not to be obtained by any other system of
heating, and does not shrink, injure or crack
furniture.
THE PUSIPS AT THE POOL.
Keinecke's Pumps have a prominent posi
tion at the upper corner nearest Dnquesno
way. There are 100 kinds of -pumps shown,
among them "The Keystone non-freezing
double acting force pump" attracts more than
general attention, as it is the best and most
effective pumD ever nut on the market It is
simple; durable and easiest to manipulate of
any pump extant xi urass-unea cylinders,
brass valve seat and brass upper plunger; dis
penses with stuffing box and throws a solid
stream. These pumps are for shallow and
deep wells, but are very readily changed from
shallow to deep b tbe,additlon of attachments.
They all have strainer, hose attachment and
reversible lever. They are also arranged for
windmill power. A pump wnich has just been
put into position attracts considerable atten
tion: it is a "Deep well Force Pump Standard"
with gearing and pulley fly-wbeet This pump
is adapted for elevating water from very deep
wells, also to a great height by either hand or
by power. The fly-wheel is broad enough for
belt when power Is used. No pump exhibit is
more varied or attracts as much attention as
Belnecke & Co.'.
Krnnlch &Bach Pianos.
Messrs. Lecbner & Schoenberger, 69 Fifth av
enue, are the agents for this standard make,
which has been used with the greatest satisfac
tion at many Pittsburg musical recitals and in
dorsed by tbe best teachers in the city. Tbe
grands are noted for their superior action and
Dody of tone, in which quality the uprights
partake most largely. The house also handles
the Stnlz A Bauer and the J. M. Starr t Co.'s
well-established instruments. The Miller organ
is a fit companion for these superb pianos, and
whatever advantage can be given purchasers In
the way of easy terms will be cheerfully pven
by this house, who have already established
themselves as prime favorites among the musi
cal trade of Pittsburg.
STEVENS CHAIR CO.
Invalids' Chain, Wheel Choirs,
Dctka,
Etc. No. 3 .Sixth Street.
There is an old and true saying that in union
there is strength. This is especially true when
the "union" is a union of good qualitiesin an
excellent and useful article of household furnfc
ture, such as an adjustable chair of the Wntt
manufactured by this reliable firm. Some of
the good qualities united in these chairs are
elegance of shape, beauty of materials, con
vent 'nee, comfort and durability. Eachcbair
may be arranged and adjusted for no less tnan
five purposes, each of which usually requires
a separate article of f urnlture,yiz.: Easy chair,
adjustable lounge, child's crib, invalid's reclin
inc chair and bed.
It Is the union of these good qualities tnat
has proved to be the strength of the company.
These chairs are In demand from widely sep
arated cities throughout this State and country.
They are made in all styles of upholstery suit
able for parlor, library and sick room.
The company also manufacture chairs on
wheels for invalids, and in fact carry almost
everythinc desired for invalids. , ,
Another of their specialties is ofittce desks or
every description. Largest stock at discount
prices.
They have had a booming trade within tne
past 12 months. Bight service and just dealing
are the secrets of success. Examine their stock
at No. 3 Sixth street
PIANOS AND ORGANS.
Echols, lUcBlnrray and Company.
Tbe exhibits of musical Instruments seem al
ways to have a powerful attraction for the visit
ors to the Exposition, and a particular favorite is
this one in North Gallery; the reason is simple
enough; the pianos and organs are of the very
best makes, and the people know it; the space
is well arranged for examining the different
styles, so that you botb see and bear with satis
faction. The principal pianos carried by this
comparatively new but vigorous firm, are the
vcryflne Ahlstron, and the long well-known
Haines Bros. With these as leaders, Echols,
McMnrray fc Co. have entered the lists boldly,
the result being a fine business. The organs
shown are the Taber. Mason fc Hamlin, and
Keystone; all most desirable instruments that
find ready sale. These pianos and organs aro
to ba had in richly carved cases, or in plainer
styles to suit all purchasers, but under all cir
cumstances' handsome. The store is at 123 San
dusky st. Allegheny (Telephone Building),
where their patrons will receive most courteous
attention.
In Public Favor.
Probably no exhibit at the Exposition takes
better with the general public than that of
Hopper Bros. fc Co., of 307 Wood street No
exhibit we think, is the theme of such General
comment as theirs, and really we have voted
none more perfect Such a perfect combina
tion of household goods in so small a space
one would have thoucht out of question.
From tbe parlor to bedroom, dining room
and kltcben, each seems to bo the pret
tiest room. There is a something so
attractive about this suite of rooms
that people cannot keep away from them.
Something so inviting that to use their own
expression, 'this is somethineworthllvlnefor."
Each day hereafter a limited number of that
splendidly-illustrated book published by tbis
firm will be given away at their exhibit; be
fortunate enough to get one. Mr. F. A. Hop
per had Intended giving bis entire time to tbe
Exposition, but their trade at tbe store, be
coming of a much greater volume than was
anticipated, requires his assistance there dur
ing the day, but mil be pleased to meet his
many friends at the exhibit in the evening.
The Steamship Model.
Mr. 3. J. McCormick, the veteran steamship
aeent has a most attractive space in which is
placed a model of the Inraan steamship City of
New York, a counterpart of the City of Paris.
These are the fastest boats on the Atlantic, as
well as the most gorgeous. The City of Paris'
best time was 5 days 19 hours and 18 minutes.
Lencth, SS0 feet; beam. 63 feet; height 59 feet;
engines, 17.500 h. p.; tonnage, 10,600. The lines
of the model are beautiful, and each of its
Darts a study. There are pictures on either
side showing the interior, such as the grand
dining hall, the bedroomj, bathrooms, engine
rooms, eta " A splendid view of tbe steamer
under full headway ad-rns the apex of the
group. Tbis model is 13 feet long, and is one
of the greatest attractions of the Exposition.
Mr. McCormick is tbe oldest steamship agent
in America, and among the thousands he has
book d across the ocean he has never lost a
single passenger. He has all the ocean lines
on his books and a fund ol Information to give.
Don't fail to see tbe exhibit, and for business

The Dabbs Photosraph Gallery,
Corner of Liberty and Market streets, is quite
a busy place on fine days. In dull, heavy
weather patrons are not pressed to have
pictures taken. Some peoplo say a good picture
can be made either in rain or shine. No honest
photographer will say tbis, for unless tbe
proper light illuminates tbe face a dingy, ob
scure expression will prevail. In foggy, nasty
weather the picture will sympathize with the
conditions of the atmosphere. See the clear
eye and wonderful expression in the faces Mr.
Dabbs shows in the art gallery.

B. A. House.
The following named men were ordained:
J. H. McMillian, elder; Aron Garter and
D. K. Davies were received into full con
nection. Bishop Jones, who acted as President,
talked to a Dispatch man yesterday. The
Bishop is middle-sized, with broad shoul
ders. He has an intellectual face and is a
polished speaker. He said:
"The "Western Pennsylvania Conference
is a fairly good one. In church property it
will compare favorably with other districts
in the eastern part of the country. The
value of our city church property, which
includes Allegheny, can be estimated at
595,000. The churches located outside the
city, but within the jurisdiction of this con
ference, approximate ?t05,000. The most
of this property has been acquired by the
hard labor of onr people. This is a wonder
ful achievement for the colored man, con
sidering a decade ago he was held within
the jaws of a cruel and merciless slavery.
HAMPERED IN THEtK WOBK
"The pastors of the A. M. E. Church
work under the severest strain, and at the
greatest disadvantages. Their salaries
range anywhere from ?250 to $1,000. The
general average is about 5500. This small
remuneration is accounted for by the
poverty of our people. The pastors who are
paid 5250 usually live in country places.
They are supposed to work in the fields to
earn the balance of their living. Hany of
the men who preach in the country are
frequently boarded at some of the members'
houses. Possibly they go the rounds of a
half a dozen familes before they leave the
charge. It is hercnlean work, bnt it has to
be done.
"Within the last ten years the Church in
this section has increased in property, num
bers and money 20 per cent The salaries
correspondingly increased. At present the
membership of this conference is about
2,000, the congregations number 5,000, and
they are served by 35 pastors. The aggre
gate receipts from all sources is 512,000 per
annum. This amount is disbursed for
preachers' salaries, rents of mission halls
and other necessary expenses connected
with a church. Money is also paid out to
various missionary societies. We also pro
vide funds for the support of ministers at
points where the people cannot afford to
pay for one.
A BIO CONGREGATION.
"The largest congregation in tbis confer
ence is the John Wesley Chapel, which has
a membership of 350. This church is very
progressive. There are organizations con
nected with it, which aim at the moral and
intellectual culture of the people.
"At the late conference we formed a new
committee called the Home Mission and
Preachers' Aid Society. This society will
work for the development of our cause in
parts of the country where colored churches
do not exist, and to provide a fund for
building churches. It may be said that the
colored people in Pennsylvania give more
in proportion to their means than in any
other part of the land. Tbe colored man
here is more intelligent than his Southern
brother, owing to his better educational ad
vantages." GRAND RE-OPENING.

15 DOCTORS FAILED
To cure Mrs. Thomas Hatton, and she suffered
on for 13 years. The aches and pains nblch she
experienced In almost every part of her body
were simply terrible. Those sharp, cutting
pains across tbe small of ber back and lower
part of her body were almost unbearable. In
fact, she suffered with all those diseases and
conditions peculiar to women. For three
months her mind was unbalanced, and for
months she was confined to her bed. She be
came very weak and emaciated, so that she
only weighed 83 pounds. No one expected her
to live, much less get entirely cured. After re
ceiving three months' treatment from the phy
sicians of the Catarrh and Dyspepsia Institute,
323 Penn avenne, she says: "The condition of
my rase was much worse than has been de
scribed. It is over five months since I became
cured, and no trace of the disease has since ap
peared. I now enjoy good health and am very
glad to testify to my permanent enre by the
physicians ot the Catarrh and Dyspepsia In
stitute.'
