JDSTICE BRADLEY'S OPINION. Pittsburg and Western Thieves Sentenced in the Criminal Court. OTHEE GEXEEAL liEWS OF THE COURTS The decision of Justice Bradley, of the United States Supreme Court, in the suit of the Westinchouse Electric Light Company vs the McKeesport ElectricLight Company, or Edison's interest, was yesterday received by Clert Gamble of the District Court. The case, it may be remembered, was argued here last spring, since which time Justice Bradlev has been occupied in formulating his opinion, which covers six pages of legal cap. The result of the decision leaves the "Westinjrhouse Company where it was prior to the suit. While losing its suit, for the bill was dismissed, it neither gains nor loses by the proceedings, excepting that had it won, it could have materially altered ihe commercial standinc of the Edison Com pany. The effect of the decision is that any one can now go into the business of making electric lamps, subject, of course, to the payment of royalties ou their manner of treating the carbon filaments, to the "West inghouse people. HISTOBT OF THE CASE. The bill, dcclson on which has just been ren dered, as for the alleged infringement of a patent sled December, 1SS7, and the date of the alleged infringed patent is May 12. 1SS5. and is fur improvements in electric lighting. The vital point in the suit was whether the patent fucdon was valid, so far as it involved a gen eral claim for the use of incandescent carbon conductors made of fibrous or textile substan ces, and the Court decided that it was nor, and so the bill was dismissed. The idea of a patent on the form of the glass lamp was dismissed because it had been in pse in electric lighting since JS45. Justice Bradley went very fully into tbe his tory of patents aealice with tbe various forms of electric lighting and of carbon conductors from their earliest use. .tie gave as nis opinion that "neither Sawyer and Mann nor Edioncan maintain any just claim to the exclusive use of charcoal generally, in any form, as an incan descent conductor in an electric lamp. This view of the question is sufficient to decide the case acainst tbe complainants.'' The opinion further states on an examination of tbe original application of Sawyer and Mann, it shows a decided difference to their amended application, which was made after Edison's in vention has been published to the world. A SPECIAL CLAIM IKSEBTED. The last claim of tbe original application was for an illuminating arc of carbonized fiber, but a special clause was inserted for the arched form of the conductor, more importance being attached to it than to the materials of which it was composed. But in the amended applica tion a complete change of base was made, tbe plaintiffs claiming that their improvements re lated especially to the incandescent conductor. The arc was everything, and changes were simply rung ou it. Sawyer and Mann were unaware of tbe fact that the arc was not new, and were under the impression they could ob tain their patent. On learning, however, that such was not tbe case, they changed about and made the-conductinc material the particular object. Ihe opinion further says: "We are not atall satisfied that Sawyer and Mann ever made and reduced to practical operations any such in vention as is set forth and claimed in the patent in suit. These principal experiments were made in 1&78. and perhaps in the beginning of 1879. Tbe evidence of what tbey accomplishes in tbe construction ot electric lamps is so con tradictory and suspicious that we can with dif ficulty give credence to the conclusions sought to be drawn from it. We are not satisfied that tbey ever produced an electric lamp with a burner of carbon made from a fibrous material, or any material, which was a success." A LITTLE COLLOQUY. Cocitable Blnree Wont. Constnble Wll.on'a Commission JZevokrd. A hearing was bad before Judge White yes terday morning, in the petition of Bartley Maree, constable of tbe .Ninth ward, Alle gheny, to have the commission of Bobert Wil son as deputy constable I evoked. In his peti tion Constable Maree alleged that WiWan toot' all the business in Alderman Foley's office, and that Alderman Foley and Constable Wilson were a pair of schemers, etc Yesterday Aldeiman Foley and Deputy Con stable Wilson appeared with their attorney, T. J. Keenan. Constable Maree was represented by Attorney McFJrov. Wilson's answer was read, denying all of Maree's allegations as to fraud. As to Maree's assertions of his own honestr, etcx. be said that he forbore to speak, "even "speak easy," leaving that to the affida vits of others. An affidavit from Alderman Foley was next read. He stated that be could not give his work to Constable Maree, because he was an habit ual drunkard, and used insulting language, etc., in his office He added that on one occasion he committed a prisoner to jail and Maree started off with him. On the way both Maree and the prisoner got drunk, and both were arrested and lodged in tbe Allegheny lockup. Wilson, he stated, is a good and efficient officer. When the assertion was read that Maree was an habitual drunkard, that gentleman jumped up and exclaimed: "And it's not a drunkard I am: Squire Foley and Wilson are the drunk ards." Alderman Foley retorted that Maree was the drunkard. The gentlemen were inter rupted by their attorneys, who proceeded to take up tbe argument in legal form. Judge White, after hearing them for a time, finally stated that Mr. Maree's pention was de fective in its construction. The petition had been drawn up by Maree himself, and tbe Court postponed the case to give him time to amend it. WANTS A SALE 5ET ASIDE. A Widow Thinks Her Husband's Partner is Claiming Too Much. A bill in equity was filed yesterday by Mrs. Jane Miller against Thomas M. Morrow, the former partner of her late husband, William B. Juller. Mrs. Miller states that her husband died on March 17, 1BSS. By his will sbe was left one-third of his personal property and a life Interest in one-third of his other property She, ho ever, refused to accept under the will Morrow and her husband were in the livery business on Ohio street, Alleghenv. and the building and property tbey had belonged to the firm. After Mr. Miller's death Morrow letained the business, and claimed that the buildmcs and ground had belonged to him individually. He was also one ot the executors of Mr. Millers will, and arranged with John Thompson, the other executor, to have Miller's share in tbe business sold at auction. It was bid iu by a friend for Morrow at a very low price. Ihe whole proceeding, Mrs. Miller claims, was a scheme to obtain the business tor Morrow and she asks the Court to set aside the sale and ap point a receiver to settle up the business. DECREE FOR PLAINTIFFS. The Marshall Estate Recovers Pledged Stock. The controversy over the estate of the late James Marshall, Sr, was concluded in the Orphans' Court yesterday. The case was in stituted by Thomas M. Marshall, M. W. Watson and Matilda Marshall, executors and trustees of James Marshall's estate, to recover stock ceipnging to mm, dui picagea dv James Mar shall, Jr., as collateral seenrity for notes. The money was borrowed by James -Marshall, Jr., to put Into the business ot James Marshall d. Co whicn afterward failed. It was held that James Marshall, fer- had no interest in the firm, and bis estate could not be put into the business. Judge Hawkins decided in faror of the plaint iffs, and yesterday decrees were made. The stock in dispute was 693 shares of tbe AUe Cheny Gas Company, and 12a shares of stock of the Farmers' Deposit Rational Bank, all held by the Second National Bank of Allegheny and the American Bank.

The P. 3t W. Robbers Receive Their Medi cine A McKecsport Constable Mixed Up In a Speak-Easy Case. Judges Slagle, White and Magee were on the bench in tbe Criminal Court yesterday, and passed sentence on. those convicted of various offences during the week. In the case of James McGill and others, convicted of stealing from railroad cars. Judge Slagle refused a new trial. The application was madeby W. D. Moore. The first reason for a new trial was cited as error in the Court in allowing the prosecution to order a juror to stand aside after the Com mons ealth and defense bad each exhausted their challenges. The proceeding is a common one, and the Court ruled it was not sufficient for a new trial. On tbe second reason it was argued that a tipstaff, Felix Negley, had at tempted to influence a jnror by saying in his hearing that the defendants were "a bad gang." The evidence did not justify the statement that he tried to Influence tbe juror, and the testi mony of the juror was that he bad not been in fluenced, nor did he tell any other juror what he heard. Negley did not know he was within hearing, and made the statement m answer to a remark addressed to him by another. The motion for a new trial was then refused, the Judge dwelling on the Importance of nunty in the jury box. He said that if a juror heard a casual conversation reflecting on an accused person, and that was considered good ground for a new trial, justice might be de leated in any case by auone So disposed. The defendants in the case, James McQill, Thomas Davis, Sr and his son. Thomas Davis, Jr., were then sentenced by Judge Slagle. McGill got one year in the penitentiary. He was consid ered the most guilty of the three. Thomas Davis, Sr.. who is very infirm, and has been in jail six months already, was given SO days to the workhouse, and his son one year to tbe same institution. Before Judge White Mrs. Bridget Flaherty was brought for sentence. She bad been con victed of selling liquor in McKeesport without a license. She was very slow in answering the Judge's questions, but lie finally got ont of her tbe statement that she had given her landlord, John Hamilton, 20, to give to Constable J. M. Piper in order that he would not return her to tbe grand jury. She also said sbe bad eiven Piper J2 as a present. Judge White thought the matter rather important, ana oraerea tne woman remanded to jail until next Saturday, when sho will be made repeat ber accusations before her landlord and the constable. An order was issued for tbe appearance of both of them, together with the agent of tbe company that delivered the beer to her. The latter's name Mrs. Flaherty did not know. KlijahHart, of Scott township, convicted also of selling liquor without license, came to the rail tottering on a walking stick. His hair was white and he seemed very infirm. Sen tence was suspended in his case until next Saturday to allow him an opportunity to pay the costs. Alois Bruno, for keeping a disorderly house, got three months to the workhouse. Charles McGirdy, larceny, one year to the same place. W. B. Sbaner, assault and battery, three months. GRANGER'S ANSWER. Be Claims He FnrnUhed All the Capital In the Partnership. W. M. Granger, yesterday, filed his answer to tbe bill in equity against him presented by Emma E. -Miller. Granger claims that he furnished all ttje capital used in the partner ship and his accounts will show he is correct. K. S. Miller was appointed receiver. Assistant District Attorney Haymaker has Eromised Clarence Burleigh, the defendant's iwyer. to hurry up the case. A Canceled Contract. Johns McCleave, Esq., entered suit yesterday for Frescott, McCleane 4 Co. against E. D. Wilt and F. H. Phelps, of the Grand 'Opera House. The plaintiffs claim damages on a con tract that was canceled by Mr.Wilt. The com pany was to have played here during the week of September 9. bnt in May last they were noti fied not to come. Only the first formal steps were taken in the case, a precipe having been filed and the defendants notified of the suit of plaintiffs. The amonnt of damages is not stated. What Lawyers Hnve Done. George B. Mitchell yesterday sued for a divorce from Anna B. Mitchell, alleging indig nities to bis person. Suits for aivorce on the grounds of desertion were entered by Thomas Cook against Marga ret Cook and Annetta J. Snyder against John M. Snyder. In the divorce case of W. W. Neshit against Virginia E. Nesblt, Mrs. Nosblt jesterday ob tained a rule on her husband to show cause why he should not tile a bill of particulars. Ik the divorce case of John P. Reis against Louisa Reis a rule was issued on the plaintiff to make lus wife an allowance for her support. A similar rule was issued in the case of Wm, Jloore against Elizabeth V. Moore. George Cohen says his suit, acainst S. P. Stern for $183 is a civil action to recover the value of goods stolen by a boy and taken to Stern's store. Cohen says he does not charge Stern with having stolen the watches. John Boldoff yesterday filed a suit for damages against C. W. Cook and John Fergu son for malicious prosecution. He claims that they sued him before Alderman Cassidy for a bill he did not owe. Capiases were issued for the arrest of Cook and Ferguson. A statement prepared yesterday by the County Treasurer shows the following balances in the county funds on October 1: County fund, 0S.i6 03; poor tund, $30,074 50; sinking fund, J2&412 50; liquor license fund, $309,558 23: State tax. $199,283 90.

James Butler, yesterday, entered suit against tbe Pittsburg and Birmingham Street Railway Company lor 510,000 damages. Butler states that he was on one of the company's cars going along Carson street. The car was crowded and he was on the lower step of the front platform. The car struck a mortar box near Tenth street, and he was knocked off and the wheels went over his leg. He is per manently injured, and claims that the accident was due to the company's negligence. Some Results of Electricity. The lollowing important statements are clipped from the United Presbyterian, of this city, September 19, which says: The accomplishments of physical elec tricity are not more astonishing than are the resnlts of that subtle agent in its scientific therapeutic application to diseases of the body. The eminent electrician, Dr. John son, of this city, is, to onr personal knowl edge, performing some very remarkable cures. Tumors, goitres, and cognate growths yield readily to his peculiar treat ments, as do pneumonia, typhoidal, and other acute and malignant fevers. We are a living monument ot his ability in paraly sis and almost hopeless nervous conditions. In diseases peculiar to "suffering women," the doctor has been made a great blessing, as many can testify. But in his "brain diagnosis and treatment'! his own discovery he possesses a wonderful power for good. Already a nnmber of cases of serious brain troubles, which had been pronounced "incurable" some coming hundreds of miles lor treatment Dr. Johnson has saved from goingto the insane asylum. We publish this for the benefit of suffer ing hnmanity, and because we personally know of the great and grand work Dr. John son is doing.

LAST NIGHT FOE THE WESTERN. People Are Eeminded That the Show Will Close October 19. FUETHER ATTRACTIONS PROMISED The Great Western Band finished its en gagement at the Exposition last night. The famous Thirteenth Begiment Band, of New York, will take its place until the great show closes on October 19. Many will be sorry to see the Great Western go, but the band coming has a world-wide reputation, and something fine in the musical line can be expected. The leader is one of the best trombone soloists in the country. Ihe Thirteenth will begin its short engagement to-day. The flower show of Friday was continued throughout yesterday, and the elaborate designs exhibited by the competing florists were admired by thousands. Many addi tions to the original display were made, so that the floral exhibition 'yesterday was practically a new one. Many of the exhibits, too, have been completely renewed within the past day or two, and the visitor now sees a display that is entirely different in many of its features from that of a week ago. As time passes the exhibitors seem to rise to the occasion, andthe resnlt is that the Exposition is very similar to a kaleidoscope in its constantly changing displays. The management, moreover, by dint of much hard work, have got things to running as smoothly as a well greased engine, and the big show moves along with no friction anywhere. The programme of the famous Thirteenth Regiment Band, as arranged bvDirector Innes. is in keeping every way with the record, and worthy, in an artistic way, of both himself and his musicians. The following will be the programme for Monday, and no doubt music lovers will be de lighted at the showing: FAST t AFTERNOON, 2 O'CLOCK.

THE BARNES SAFE EXHIBIT At the Pittsburg Exposition. MAIN AISLE, MECHANICAL HALL. This manufacture has a world-wide reputa tion. Tbe excellence of the product is exempli fied in tbe superb collection of gates shown at this point of observation. The Barnes safe was established in 1845, and from its being an infant has grown to tbe im mense proportions of a giant during this lapse of time, new 44 years. The Barnes, safes are onlv manufactured bv "The Barnes Safe and Lock Company," Nos. 124 to 131 Third avenue, Pittsburg. They have no other office In Pittsburg, nor any connection with any other establishment here. Over 200.000 of these safes are now in use in the United States, and testimonals have been received from tbe owners of safes which stood the test of the great fires in Chicago, Boston, Eolyoke, Seattle and Spokane. CHAMPION SAFES AT THE EXPOSITION. The chief object shown in this collection is a bank burglar-proof safe weighing 7.000 pounds with a Sargent & Greenleaf time lock. This Is one ot tne handsomest bank safes ever made in this or any other country. It wonld be worth the time of any man, interested in keep ing his valuable securities intact from rogues, to examine tbe superior qualities of this safe. A full line of materials used in the manu facture of burglar proof safes is shown and fully explained. These exemplify all the parts entering into the construction and how they are put together at the factory. In fact every thing that modern science has developed in the way of security for books and valuables against depredation and robbery is employed in the Barnes system. SPLENDID FIREPROOF SAFES. Around and in the space is an attractive col lection of fireproof safes of all sizes and va rieties, finished in the highest styles of artistic ornamentation. Some of them have been sold since the Exposition opened, and tho. names of many prominent firms appear upon them as purchasers. A vault door stands in the center of the rear end of the exhibit. In this class of work Barnes stands at the bead. There is scarcely a build ing of importance in Pittsburg where vaults are used, except those supplied from the Barnes factory. A ladles' jewel casket mounted on an orna mental stand is shown near the entrance. This small safe should be found in all families who are possessed of jewels and heirlooms. A Yale time lock is also shown which shares attention with the Sargent t Greenleaf. It is a most beautiful piece of mechanism. RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS INDUSTRT. While Pittsburg is the headquarters fo. the Barnes industry, the sale of safes is not con fined to this territory. The ramifications of this business extena into every state and Ter ritory of the Union. The exhibit of Barnes' safes is the finest that has ever been shown in any exhibition from Maine to California, and so acknowledged by traveling men visiting the buildings. By way of parenthesis, it may be remarked that sales are made every day, as these safes are looked upon as prize specimens, and parties desiring a safe take pride in securing one which hasap parently been built for expert criticism. The Barnes representatives at the Exposi tion, Messrs. Koerner. McLain and Seymour, are very courteous gentlemen, and have made themselves most popular by their manner of welcoming visitors, and clearly explaining the uses and interims of the exhibit under their per sonal supervision. Parties looking for reliable safes need seek no further than this exhibit for the best article of the kind manufactured. FURTHER PARTICULARS Of the Grognn Opening. MAGNIFICENT BRONZES FROM PARIS. It is not well to describe too many of these wonderful objects of art which are among the "chefs d'esuvres" which Mr. Grogan imported for his opening, and three of tbe subjects will give a fair idea of what they are. the first impression shows Guttenberg intently perusing this first result ot bis arduous undertaking. Two figures xompose tbe group; Guttcnberg erect, fairly quivering wiw excitement, tne iace augmvnui f . y- iaW'fcJt . -. J-.' k -kvMt&?&9F' "'; PITTSBtTEGDISPTCH' Erlde and joy: the assistant, gazing at him with is heart iuhis eyes, to learn Just how far they have been SuccesfuL Any one who has seen tbe portraits of Guttcnberg will be struck with tbe faithfulness of the likeness, for it is simply remarkable. Beside this stands the musical group, entitled DCO DIFFICILE in which a violinist and a flutist have encoun tered a musical phrase rather beyond their powers of execution. Each knows he has played his part correctly, and the expression of anxious interest as they twist themselves to survey the page of notes held in position on the knee of the flutist as he sits ou bench is natural to the life. THE SWORD MAKER. A single figure is the third piece of this series. The artisan holds at arm's length a sword Just completed, in his left hand, the mallet in lis right hand, resting on the shoulder. The look of Ineffable satisfaction which perfectly irradiates his countenance so instantly wins your sympathy that you are at once as pleased with him, as he is with himself. The worn leather apron, with its ragged edges, upon the superbly poised figure, and the tools of his handicraft besidehlm, make this a most real istic representation. ART WORE IN ANOTHER FORM. This Is found in an example of hand chasing in silver, that has never been equaled in this country, the work of a French artist in the employ of the Gorham Silver Manufacturing Co.; it consists of a coffee pot and square tray, upon which have apparently been thrown hap hazard, handf uls of pine rones and spines. The cones stand up and out in all directions in full life size, while the spines are each so perfectly defined, that the desire to push them about can scarcely be resisted; a twig which rests on the coffee pot looks as thoufrh it would actually feel resinous and sticky if touched. Certainly the most as tonishing piece of work ever executed, and one that will probably never be repeated, for the genius who evolved anything so brilliant could never sit down tamely to make a second, but is doubtless far away iu another line of thought long ere this. A MISAPPREHENSION CORRECTED. The Louchet vase described in these columns yesterday is exhibited at Mr. Grogan's store, 443 Market street, corner of Fifth avenue, and not at the Exposltiod building as some have surmised. The Exposition exhibit is still a matter of intense interest to the crowds of vis itors which is increasing every day. REINECKE fc COMPANY; Sanitary Plumbers und Gna Fitters. GURNET HOT WATER HEATERS, PUMPS, ETC. The space In the gallery occupied by tbe above firm has received a large amount of at tention from practical people seeking tbe best ideas and methods with which the fertile resources of this bouse teem. All the latest improvements in fitting up a bouse with gorgeous plumbing, such as porcelain lined bathtub with brass covering in repousse work and standing upon brass feet is styled the Royal Albion. All tbe water pipes, faucets and trimmings are .of brass burnished so as to hold its color. Other trimmings can be had silver-plated. The other bathroom fixtures are in keeping with this massive bathtub. The specimens of tine gas fixtures, arranged alike for incandescent lights, snow some oi tne newest conceits in this line. THE GURNET HEATER has revolutionized the old notions regarding heating houses. Furnaces will gradually give way to this more excellent system. Already many of them have been put up in this section, and it is believed that this nfnler will settle the question of its superiority over all other competitors. A most valuable treatise on tbe subject of "How Best to Heat Our Homes" is luraisuea oy rteinecge uo. ou application. It contains many hints and much sensible in formation on this subject. It tells us. among the advantages of the hot water system, which are conducive to health are: Freedom from noxious or poisonous gases, evenness of tem perature throughout the building, whether the outside temperature be very cold or moderate. The air being heated very slowly and steadily is soft, not too dry, and exceedingly beneficial to those who suffer from chest orluug troubles, and it is well known that in bouses where the flerco heat of hot air furnaces or steam is used house plants will not thrive, but in cases where hot water is introduced the same varieties of plants are grown successfully. PUMPS IN MECHANICAL HALL. This is the finest collection ever seen at an ex hibit of the kind, and receives more attention than any other display in the building. Relnecke & Co. have always been famous for handling the best pumps that are made, and "The Keystone" double acting force pump stands at the head of the line, as its perform ance at the tank testifies. There are over 100 varietiea,on exhibition to which special atten tion is directed. E. G. HAYs Si CO., 75 FIFTH AVENUE. The Hozelton Pianos at the Exposition. For nearly 40 years these very popnlar Instru ments have held sway as a leading factor at concerts, piano recitals and orchestral gather ings, besides embellishing the homes of thou sands, where they iform the "pivot of tbe mu sical idea round which tbe family revolves. Tbey are fast becoming favorites in this sec tion, their elastic touch, singing Quality, deli cacy and power of tone being fully appreciated by their adherents. As an instrument for re hearsals, either for chorus, or orchestra, they have no superior. For these reasons the "Vested Choir" of Trinity P. E. Church has been drilled for nearly two years with the tones of a Hazelton to guide them. Hazelton Bros, have made a consistent study of all tbe details of constructing pianos, hence tbe admirable results. No lumber is used until it has been from three to five years in stock, and only the thickest, hardest woods are used by them; especial regard is paid to the 'bound ing boards," to obtain the greatest strength, combined with tbe utmost delicacy, to maintain and increase the vibrating power; the greatest exactitude has been attained in the arrange ment of the leverage power, without which no piano can havd a perfect action ; they have made a study of the higher branches of acoustics and applied them to the manufacture of pianos; greatest care has been taken to prevent uneven and irregular vibrations, which produce false and discordant tones, and the result is a piano with sweet ringing, full, sustaining and power ful tone. Tbey are all good, from the noble Concert Grand to tbe smallest among the squares and uprights. Consult the firm whose name heads this list If you vi ould have a piano containing the best qualities, especially dura bility and capability of being kept in tune, and especially note tbe fine specimens in the ex hibit in South Gallery. HOPPER BROS., 307 WOOD STREET. North Gnllery, Exposition Building. No further changes have been made in this exhibit recently, from the fact that everyone has been more than delighted with it just as It now stands, and it seemed unwise to break the spell which has made this display the favorite in the building. However, those who have further requirements, such as the furnishing of a more roomed house, where different con ditions are to be considered, hare only to go to the store, 307 Wood street, to, find such variety in the immense stock carried by this firm that it will be as simple a matter to furnish a dozen or more bed and other rooms as it was to make the four now exhibited. It saves time and ill-humor when you can find at once the articles appropriate to your wants, and not hare to plan and devise some means to make an object that really does not suit, answer the purpose after a fashion. Persons going to housekeeping, and others about to refit, and remodel their rooms, will benefit themselves materially, and secure artis tic yet thoroughly "homey" homes, by intrnst inr themselves to tbe competent and trust worthy hands of Messrs. Hopper Bros. & Co. B. A. ELLIOTT COMPANY'S Grand FlornI Display.

What It Js Costing to Erect the New Federal Baildlnsr. It is estimated that only two ship cargoes of granite from the Maine quarries will fur nish enough stone to complete the new post office. One of those cargoes is now being loaded at the quarries. Since Mr. Malone took charge of the work last May, three cargoes have been received. There has been set in the building, including the basement 112,648 cubic feet of stone. The basement contains 27,800 cnbic feet; the first division which comprises the tall first story, 22,248 cubic feet;'the second division, including the second and third stories, 67,922 cubic feet; the third division so far 4,678 cnbic feet. There is now on the ground, not set, 15,524 cubic feet of gra ite. The total amount received is thus 128,173 cnbic feet. The granite has all been cut and carved at the quarries, ready to be put !d place. Pieces of different size and dif ferent finish cost varying prices, and Su perintendent Malone is not prepared to say what the exact cost of all the stone has been. It is estimated to average abont $5 per cubic foot, so that the stone received up to this date has cost about $640,000. Each cargo contains from 10,000 to 11,000 cubio feet, so that (100,000 worth of granite is yet to-be received and used in the magnificent structure. MRS. FIANN'S STATEMENT. Her Husband Spent an Hoar and a Half Bidding Her Farewell. Mrs. Harry Flann, wife of the ex-bookkeeper of the Marine Kational Bank, wishes to correct the statement that her husband was only allowed about 25 minutes to bid her good-by before being taken away to the penitentiary. Through the kindness of Warden Berlin of the jail, he was al lowed nearly two hours to say farewell to his family. An affecting scene occurred when the young man took up his baby and kissed it affectionately. The little fellow seemed to know his father, although not a year old. A pleasant farewell supper was given Mr. Flann by his wife's family at the Hotel Dnquesne. A SOUTHSIOE PARK. Within Easy Reach ot All Parts of the Old City.

It may not be known by everybody that just over the hills of the Southside, within easy reach of the entire city by street cars and incline planes, there now is a mo$t de lightful park of many acres in extent, where the tired, weary toilers of the city, sur rounded by charming beds of flowers and lovely lawns that Skirt the borders of the handsomely shaded avenues, may enjoy the beauties of nature and hear the notes of the many feathered songsters as they will fill the air with their joyous strains and where they can revel in the bright sun light and" enjoy the boling winds, which bring health and color to the cheeks of the children and invalid and Joy to the heart of everyone.

DECEPTIVE DOS ACTS The Law Taxing Canines is a Qneerly Formed Piece of Machinery. CLEAR AS JIUD, OR METAPHYSICS. Dogs Urban and Suburban Appear to be Blended in Confusion. ABE ALLyEEYIOCS ACTS REPEALED? Dr. J. B. Grimes is a lover of dogs, and has a lotof money invested in them and everything relating t o them. He was found the other day with corrugated brow trying to reconcile the general dog law with special enactments that dot the statute books as stars do the sky on a clear, frosty night. As a key to the solution he was conning an article in Forest and. Stream. Peonle uninterested in doeroloev mar not know that there has been as much legisla tion bearing on their regulation and manage ment as on the subject of the sale of intoxi cating drinks, and some of it is fully as crude. Pnrdon's Digest, after enumerating general and special acts, repeals of acts, etc., says, "Consult each gear's enactments, for there have been special laws passed at almost every session' of the Legislature." There are special acts for Allegheny, Lancaster, Philadelphia, Northampton, Schuylkill, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, York, Carbon, Clinton, Franklin and Lycoming counties. DEPENDS OK THE JUDGE. Then, 'as Dr.Grimes remarks, judges dis agree. A judge who likes a dog is apt to construe him as personal property,- and one wno aoesn't mases a nuisance or mm when ever he can strain the law in that direction, and old English laws were averse to consid ering the animal as property, from the fact that most of the makers of laws at one time regarded ihe dog as a nuisance. The act passed at last session making dogs personal property, subject to taxation and the snbject or larceny, provides in Sec tion 6 "that this act shall not repeal or affect the provisions of any special law relating to the same subject in any county, township or borough in this Commonwealth." Now most of the valuable dogs in the Commonwealth are owned in cities, and in most of these cities the snbject is governed by special laws, and these by the act are not repealed. Then, are these dogs to be taxed for the benefit of sheep growers and the school fund? Did the Legislature sup pose that dogs in cities were too well bred to kill sheep and therefore not the snbject of the ban? As all dogs in this Common wealth are spoken of, the doctor is inclined to think that Section 6 is an Interpolation or possibly an afterthought, and that the idea may have been that the late law should apply merely to the counties not provided for. He regards the title of the bill as de fective, as it does not set forth the purpose of the enactment. A qUESTIOK 07 BOODLE. It seems. there are $2,000,000 worth of dogs in the State and perhaps $500,000 wor.th in Allegheny county, and 'as the tax is 50c on a male and $1 on a female, whether of high or low degree, the matterjiossesses consider able interest, aside from that of wool-growing and that of education. Heretofore if you had a "purp" you valned you took him to the Clerk of Courts ana paid him $1 SO for registry. As this law is unrepealed must a citizen of Allegheny county in order to throw the mantle ot dignity and seenrity around his dog, still pay the $1 50 and the tax also, or will the payment of the tax pro tect him? In some quarters doubts are expressed as to whether the law can be carried into effect on account of the obsenrity surrounding it, nntU after another Legislature meets. Special laws for'special purposes are not re pealed, and it is thought doubtful whether 'the act will pass legal scrutiny, and sheep and education may continue to languish until 1891. Once a registered dog always a registered dog, but if this plebian enact ment is to stand and operate along side of the registry law, what becomes of the dollar and a halt's worth of aristocracy iurnished by the registry? The act is entirely too leveling. It puts the common stump tailed cur or the pumpkih-and-milk vagrant on a level with the Italian grey hound and tbe majestic mastiff. MBS.
