"Of all tbe days within the week.
There is no day like one day;
And that's the day that comes between.
A Saturday and Monday."
HE observation of
tbe gentleman who
"loved no girl but
Sally," might be
appropriately
echoed by Pitts
burg club-goers.
To them, Sunday
presents none of
those somber, un
attractiTe features
which made poor

sional and bnsi.
ness men of Pitts
burg, as indeed of
most other American cities, Sunday
is a time of rest from the many
cares which harass the mind dur
ing those toilsome days which do not
come "between a Saturday and Monday."
But if there be one member at the clubs
during the summer Sundays, there are five
there during the cold, damp Sundays of
autumn and winter.
Anyone who -visited the Cabot Clnb, of
Pittsbnre, on any recent Sunday, except
yesterday, would have been struct with the
truth of this last observation. We will call
it the Cabot Club for the sake of disguise,
adding still further that it is a Republican
club of strong Democratic prejudices; in
other words, a happy anomaly. It is
located either on Sixth avenue or Smith
field street a pretty safe neighborhood in
which to place such
A TISIOKAET nTSTITtTTION',
seeing that those thoroughfares very nearly
bound the "clubland" of Pittsburg. Any
further information regarding the Cabot
Club can be had on application to the sec
retary. On Sundays, usually, the rain comes
down in its most energetic fashion. It
sweeps many a bedraggled member into the
grateful shelter of the Cabot Club. It
loads tbe hatstands with dripping bead
gear. It fills every available corner with
umbrellas. It shrouds the passages with
overcoats. In the smoking rooms, buried

in the depths of mighty arm-chairs, doze or
read or smoke gentlemen by the score. In
his favorite nook, by the fire, sits the priv
ileged "oldest member," autocrat of all the
hearthrug, and suzerain of the "salle a
lumer." Between his teeth for he is en
gaged in one of his dailr lectures on mea
and things is firmly held a choice "Henry
Clay," and on his knees, to shield them
from tbe over-ardent proximity of the fire,
he has spread a copy of The Dispatch.
By his grizzled mustache you can see he is
AX OLD GEOGKAED,
and has been through the war. Heremiuds
one of that "Pierre" of whom Thackeray
sings:
"On the sunshiny bench or a tavern
He sits, and he talks of old scars,
And moistens his pipe of tobacco,
With a drink, that is named after Mars."
These old warriors love the warmth and
comfort of sun or fire; and have they not
earned aright to all such good things?
The sojourners in the smoking rooms are,
for the most part, old fogies, in whom the
fierce fire of youth is dead or dying. They
no longer regard a game of p i r as the
desired orall desirables. The "reckless con
tractions" and "graceful falsehoods" or the
ordinary daily papers, give them quite
gambling enough. So they lounge in the
smoking room, and burrow into the cushions
till scarce anything is visible but an out
stretched newspaper and a pair of shoes.
There is sameness in shoes, and even news
papers wax monotonous at times; so we will

sings of can compare with the delicious
exhalations which greet the gourmand as
he steps into the dining room ot the Cabot
Club.
BUT VKBT TJlfCOireEXTIOHAL.
Here are more sensible elderly gentlemen
engaged in demolishing appetizing viands
and partaking of the mellow contents of
the wine cup. Only in club life is it "good,
lorm" (ohl bugbear of the painfully polite
American nation!) to place your newspaper
before you while yon eat. That is one of the
glorious privileges of the club; and anyone
who has been to the English House of Com
mons dining- room, or the salles-a-manger of
the Beform, or Carlton, can vouch for the
T-5F7
1 - jf
regularity with which the great ones of the
Anglo-Saxon practice this custom.
It is not far from the dining room to the
"sideboard" of the Cabot Club. Elevate
not thine eyebrows, oh, staunch opponents
of the inebriating decanter! Ten must know
that, even on Sunday, the man who
hath monev can purchase drink. It
is only the man who hath, not
of earth's treasures that the prohibitory laws
effect; and so it must remain as long as the
club sets up its sideboard,
"Sir," says Brigadier General Jones in
the drink room of the Oabot Clnb, raisinga
glass of amber-colored liquid between his
left eye and the light; "Sir, we must keep
down this drunkenness that is undermining
our country. A craving for liquor 'is fast
taking root among the dregs of the people,"
(here the gallant soldier tossed off his
bumper); "and may one day prove an open,
as it is now a subtle, enemy to the consti
tution." SPOILING HIS ABGUMENT.
Very true, indeed, most excellent Jones,
but why do you replenish your glass
with .more of that amber nectar?
Does it not somewhat destroy the

effect of your oracular denunciation of the
drink traffic?
It is but a step or two from drink io cards.
In the cardroom cozy little apartment
.there are sundry games of p-k-r progressing.
xne chips rattle on tbe tables; the players
faces might do duty as models for a gallery
of the human emotions. Here are anxiety,
disgust, wrath, consternation, cunning, de
light and hope vividly portrayed on the
countenances of the various'devotees of for
tune. Pity 'tis that commiseration should
be so eloquently absent! Ancient Shakes
peare tells ns that "the quality of mercy is
not strained." They certainly do not over
strain it in the Cabot Club cardroom.
"Whether Brown or Robinson be the loser, it
is there "vae victis" ever.
WTELDJNG THE CUES.
In another chnmber of the clnb, the
cnrled or banged darlings or Pittsburg, with
short coats over long ones if they be not
coatless with their cues "find enjoyment
more than city life entails," The billiard
room hath its own bright allurements.
Those rose-red or cream-white spheres that
skim across tbe green, curving and kissing
many times, as they rebound from the
shelving cushions, they are like to our
lives, forever aiming, hitting, missing,
crossing and shifting; now here, now there;
driven by a power, which they can neither
understand nor resist; coming, they know
not whence, and hurrying, they know not
whither.
Tobacco generally pervades the club; but
in the Cabot there are chambers in which
James I might have written his "Counter
blast," and smelt not the "noxious weed."
They are but little frequented, these rooms;
thongh the Pittsburger, as a rule, is addict
ed to smoking. But, even in Pittsburg,
there are some ether Inckless witrbts who do
not smoke, and these find an asylum in the
pre-Baieighite chambers. Everywhere else
through the house, except in the dining
room, tbe breath of the "fragrant nicotine"
lingers lovingly. Prom the scent of the de
licious cigar to that of those not unpleasant
libels on tobacco, the Allegheny "tobies,"
every species of tobacco is wafted through
the club rooms.
OUT OP THE WET AT A "WINDOW.
Tf it be a wet Sunday afternoon very few
care to peer through the streaming window
panes of the Cabot Clnb. But some poor
youths who still look forward to meeting
their lady-loves, if the rain should ever
clear up, lounge against the panes, gazing
intently at the down-pour. If their lady
Joves could see them now, with their charm
ing aquiline or Grecian noses pressed into
the semblance of those worn by natives of
the Fiji Islands, and their cupidom lips, un
pleasantly distended, it is hard to say what
might be the result.
And now we have seen the Cabot Clnb in
its ordinary dull Sunday aspect. It is a
cosy, enjoyable place to spend an afternoon
on all days; but on a wet Sunday it is an
oasis in the desert of prim conventionality,
a home for the homeless, a haven for the
weary. Wherefore it doeth good, and, do
ing good, let it flourish I "We will e'en don
our wraps and face the rain once more,
happy in the knowledge that there is a
Cabot Club. Bben-ait.
WOKKHOUSE SENTEfiCES.
Judce Grlpp Sends Up Seven People for
Various Offenses.
The Central station hearing yesterday
morning resulted in seven unfortunates get
ting workhouse sentences out of the 30 pris
oners hauled up before the bar of justice.
Patrick Welsh, who had thrown a tum
bler and struck frank Busha, a waiter in a
Libertv street restaurant, was given SO days.
John Ellis, who was arrested for street
fighting and who attempted to do up Officer
McTighe, was given the same sentence.
Norman Jacobs and Lizzie Davis had been
fighting on Grant street, but Miss Davis
told the magistrate a pretty story, and got
off with a ten-days' sentence to jail. Jacobs
will go to Claremont 30 days. James Clin
ton was charged with getting drunk and
raising Cain in his boarding houc His
landlady appeared against him and said he
had broken her dishes, thrown a stovelid at
her dog, and had cursed and sworn at her.
The magistrate rebuked Clinton with a 30
dav sentence
John Kennedy, who had been arrested
Saturday afternoon while drnnk and carry
ing about with him a pair or new shoes he
could not account for, was able to tell a
straight story to the magistrate and was dis
charged. Dennis McGinley, Kike Cunningham,
Pat Hanlon and JJan Sweeney had been en
gaged in a fight on Liberty street when -arrested
by Officer James Jack. They turned
their attention to fighting the officer then,
and were having a nice time with him when
Captain TTnterbanm came to his assistance.
"When the case camebelore the magistrate it
appeared that McGinley and Hanlon were
the principal offenders, and they were each
given 30 days. The others got' ten days to
jail.
Thirteen common drunks, six disorderlies
and one rag were given the usual light sen
tences. '' A Specific for Ilenrt Disease.

Congress to be Urged to Adopt a Pos
tal Savings Bank System.
MB. WANAMAKER IS INTERESTED.
The Great Contest for the location of the
World's Fair.
ONE MAGNIFICENT DISPLAY PEOMIBED
tCOItttlSPOJTDENCJC 01 THE PISTATCH.2
"WASHniGTOJr,November23. ThePostal
Savings Bank scheme is again to be brought
to the attention of Congress, and a strong
movement in its favor will be inaugurated
almost with the opening ot the Congres
sional session. It may be that the Post
master General will make a recommenda
tion on the snbject in his forthcoming an
nual report. This is not at all assured,
however, as the matter was not brought
strongly to Mr. "Wanamaker's attention until
a few days ago.
The Knights, of Labor and the "Woman's
Christian Temperance TJnion are being in
terested in the matter and it is thought they
will make a strong appeal to Congress.
The prime worker in the movement is
Horace J. Smith, of Philadelphia, who
called on the Postmaster General recently
and laid the matter before him. Mr. Smith
is an enthusiast on the subject He has
been an enthusiast for many years; in fact,
ever since he investigated the system in
operation in England, in Italy and in other
parts of the old world.
Bnt while be admires the systems in
vogne abroad, he recognizes the fact that
conditions here are different, and thai the
English system, for example, wonld not at
present be successful here. He argues,
though, that the principle is right, and that
it should be adopted by our Congress in
some modified form.
THE ENGLISH SYSTEM.
Many of the features of the English sys
tem are most admirable. Deposits of one
shilling or any multiple of a shilling are re
ceived at any postal .savings bank office
from any person seven years ot age or older,
or in tbe name of any child of less than
seven years. The deposit is entered in a
book, -which is given to the depositor free of
charge. "Within four days the depositor re
ceives by mail from the Savings Bank De
partment in London an acknowledgment of
the deposit This is a guarantee that the
deposit has been forwarded to tbe bank.
I erred when I said a minute ago that
"any person" of or over a certain age could
make a deposit There are some excep
tions. No person can have an account in a
Trustee Savings Bank and in the Postoffice
Savings Bank too. The Postoffice Bank is
intended to benefit only the poor or those
who cannot make large' deposits. To these
interest at 2)4 per. cent per annum is paid
on every pound or multiple of a pound Irom
the first day of the month next following
the date of the deposit tUl December 31,
when the interest is added to the principal
and begins to carry interest The maxi
mum limit of a deposit is 30 a year (end
ing December 31) and 150 in all. "When
a depositor accumulates 150 he "can make
no more deposits. He is a capitalist then.
Bnt there is another field than that of de
posit opened to him. He can purchase an
immediate or deferred annuity not exceed
ing 100, or he can insure his life in an
amount not less than 5 and not more than
100. For the payment of the annuity or
the insurance, he has Government security.
Or, if the depositor does not wish to pur
chase an annuity or insure himself, he can
purchase Government stock bearing 2 per
cent or 2 per cent interest A child above
7 Tears of age may make investments and
sell stock as if he were of full age.
A PECULIAE DEVICE.
But the most interesting of the Postoffice
Bank system and the one whose importance
Mr. Smith is endeavoring to impress on the
Postmaster General, is the stamp-card for
the saving of money in very small sums.
Henry Fawcett, the blind Postmaster Gen
eral of Great Britain, devised tbe stamp
card. It is an oblong card on which aie 12
spaces,each large enongh to contain a stamp.
These cards are issned usually to children.
The child, when it gets a penny which it
wishes to bave, buys a penny stamp and
affixes it to one of the blanks. "When all of
the blanks are filled the card is taken to the
Postoffice Savings Bank and is there received
as a deposit of 1 shilling.
It was thought at one time that this sys
tem might encourage children to steal
stamps, but no such evil result has been ob
served yet At Baden-Baden the stamp
card is in use, but there the stamp used is
issued by the City Savings Bank for this
especial service. "We have in this country
a local system somewhat similar. It was es
tablished by the Charity Organization So
ciety of New York under the name of the
Penny Provident Fnnd. Stamps are issued
and are for sale now at 30 stamp stations.
Cards are issued in the name of the stamp
purchaser and are not transferable. There
are 3G spaces on each card.
"When the card is fnll or the sum of all
the stamps attached amounts to $1 or more,
the card may be delivered at tbe central de
posit station, where the amount will be
transferred to a bank book or "pass book"
as the society chooses to call jt If the
stamp collector desires, the money can be
withdrawn on presentation and surrender of
the stamp card at the station where the de
posit was made. The Penny Provident
FunJ Committee has among its members
Abram S. Hewitt, ex-Congressman and re
cently Mayor of New York City, and
Charles S. Fairchild, ex-Secretary of the
Treasury.
A NEGATIVE AEGUMENT.
Mr. Fairchild has taken, a great interest
in the question ot penny savings, and he has
discussed with Mr. Smith tbe feasibility of
establishing a postal savings bank In this
country. But in these discussions Mr. Fair
child has always taken the negative side.
His argument against the postal bank is
that the Public Treasury is alreadv bur
dened with an awkward surplus; and that
if, to this surplus, the savings of thepeople
should be added, it wonld be impossible to
find a means of putting all thisaccumulated
wealth in circulation.
It is because of this objection that Mr.
Smith has proposed to the Postmaster Gen
eral a modification of the English system.
He suggests two plans, neither of which, he
thinks, is open to the objection raised by
Mr. 'Fairchild. The first is that the money
deposited be turned over to corporate
savings banks, which shall be under such
strict Government surveillance as to render
loss through lraud or failure almost impos
sible. One objection raised to this system
is that many towns where postoffices exist
cannot support savings banks. But Mr.
Smith proposes that the postoffice facilities
be used for the transmission of deposits from
those towns and villages toother towns
where duly authorized banks exist
The second plan suggested by Mr. Smith
is that the deposits be turned over to tbe
States in which they originate. The money
conld be used bv the State for internal im
provements or (following the English plan)
conld be loaned to munlcipalties. An in
tegral part of either of these systems as sug
gested by Mr. Smith is to be tbe use or the
stamp-card to enconrage children in saving
money.
THE GEEAT RIVALBY.
The "World's Fair campaign has opened
in earnest this week with the establishment
of headquarters, for the St Xonis Commit
tee. Chicago has been in tbe field for some
time. St Louis has done a bright thing in
placing General John B. Clark, the Clerk
of the House of Bepresentafives, in charge
of its interests here. In two weeks Mr.
Clark's duties as clerk will be at an end
and he will be at liberty to make a canvass
ol the new Bouse of Bepresentatives for St
Louis.
However tbe struggle for the location of
the fair may end there is assured for the-Ex-
Jposition one enoraoss exhibit whicbrin its
a rr,. i
'rtvrsrDATnTT
kind, will not have been equaled in all
history. This exhibit will be that made by
the coal producers and coal mining and coal
handling machinery manufacturers of the
country. This interest, which has a"aiIJe':
such enormous proportions in the United
States, has become awaEe to the opportunity
and will improve it to the utmost The ex
hibit promises to be something stupendous,
embracing specimens of coal from thousands
of mines, a possible representati"n '.0e.or
more modern coal mines equipped with the
latest and most approved machinery in ac
tive operation, and such a display of coal
mining, coal handling and coal transporting
machinery as has never yet been seen, -the
Black Diamond, of Chicago and NewXorK,
the great organ of the coal trade in this
country, first suggested, and has for some
months earnestly advocated, such an e.shiblti
and the great coal mining and handli.ig.
ganizations of the country have been quicK
to recognize the chance which will be af
forded them.
Some striking and original designs on s.
grand scale are already under way. This de
partment will probably be under the direc
tion of H A. Bischoff, of the Black Dia
mond. Mr. Bischoff. who has lone supplied
the coalmen of the country with weekly sta- ,
tistics and who is to tnein what tommij
sioner Pink was for a long time to the rail
roads, is"probably the best-informed man in
his line in the United States. There is prob
ably no coal producing district in the coun
try that has not been personally visited by
Mr. Bischoff, and he has examined more
mines than any other man. He is an author
ity at the coal dealers' conventions and a
man of boundless tact and energy and good
business sense.
A GEEAT DISPLAY.
The endless variety of such a display as
can be made in coal and its cognate indus
tries, from the fancy articles made from an
thracite up to the great electrical plants now
being introduced in the mines, will, it must
be readily seen, enable the making of this
great department one of the most striking in
the great Fair of 1892. It has the merit of
being the first vast exhibit yet outlined. I
was discussing its possibilities a few days
ago with Stanley "Waterloo, recently editor
of the "Washington Canital, who is a joint
owner with Mr. Bischoff in the JJfacA;
Diamond. .
"When it is considered that the produc
tion of coal in this country of every kind
and grade has attained the enormous total
of 140,000,000 tons per annum," said Mr.
"Waterloo, "somp idea can be formed as to
the magnitude of this indnstry. An exhibit
in all its branches of this industry, together
with the various manutacturing interests
directly connected with it, will form one of
most prominent features of the exposition.
Specimensof the coal alone that wilHorm a
part of this exhibit and compromising all
varieties from the lignite to the anthracite,
contains a vast field for study. The erection
of a coal palace is among the things that
suggest themselves; coal mines in fnll oper
ation, will no doubt heighten the general
interest in the exhibit, in fact, coal mining
in all its branches, already demonstrating
the wonderlnl progress made in this field by
science and inventive genins, may be prac
tically illustrated."
Side by side may be showh the pick and
the mining machine, the latter worked by
compressed air or electricity; tbe stanch
old miner's lamp will shed its flickering
ray beside the incandescent electric light;
the interested "visitor will have the oppor
tunity to study the various systems of wire
rope haulage as well as thesuccesstul opera
tions of electric motors; the different de
signs of pit cars, automatic cages, hoisting
apparatus, fans, and so forth. It will be one
ot the grandest exposits the world has ever
seen, and certainly nothing of the kind, so
complete in all its detail as this, can and
will be made is on record."

The trial of Dennis Meagher for stabbing'
a man in Lawrenceville.last July will be
remembered as published in The Dis
patch at the time. The verdict went
against Meagher, and his attorney filed an
application for a new trial, the defendant;
still being nnder $1,000 bail. Before the
application was considered by the Court
Meagher skipped for New York, where he
is at present
The new trial having been denied, the
police officials telegraphed Superintendent
Byrnes, of Mew York, who at once seenred
Meagher's arrest, and he is now in enstody
awaiting the proper requisition papers.
Here is where tbe difficulty came in.
Under instructions Irom District Attorney
Porter Inspector McAleese sent the neces
sary application to iiarnsuurg, and they
were returned to tbe inspector as the Uov
ernor was away, and had left no one to act
for him. Again, the-papers were sent this
time by an officer, but no one with authority
to act could be found at the Capital and the
officer came back.
District Attorney Porter then made a
direct application to the Governor for requi
sition p.ipers, and jesterday received a tele
gram from Governor Beaver saying, "Bail
piece is good in another State."
""When the Governor wrote that tele
gram," said the District Attornev, "I am
confident it was in the absence of his legal
adviser. Messrs. Eirkpatrick or Stone
wonld never have advised such a message.
The jurisdiction of a court does not extend
beyond its own territory, and cannot be ex
ercised in another State. Hence the neces
sity for requisition papers on the Governor
of another State. There should be no such
delays in this case as we have had to con
tend with."
Mr. Porter then gave directions for an
officer to be sent to Harrisburg this morning
to procure the papers asking for Meagher's
return, and to go on to New York at once
and bring him back.
