CHOOSING A GET IS SOT AN EAST TASK
A glimpse in the various stores yesterday,
or a promenade down the principal shop
ping streets, proved conclusively that
Christmas was not far off, without resorting
to a calendar. The female sex were out in
lull force, looking, reflecting, consulting,
making and remaking up their minds. This
Christmas shopping is one or their dear de
lights, and the amount of time, anxiety and
loss of sleep they put into the purchase of
their gifts should make them doubly dear to
those who receive them.
The afternoon, spent with the throng, by
a reporter, resulted in quite an extended
knowledge of the stock of Christmas goods
carried by the different stores, and the state
or feeling existing among local trade, also a
desire to be somebody's relative or friend.
In the je'welry stores the only requisite
necessary to make a good selection of pres
ents isthe consciousness of a well-filled
purse, for their windows and glittering trays
afford an opportunity of indulging the most
whimsical and elegant taste. The designs
in jewelry are more artistic, daintier and
belter calculated to adorn than ever, and
the simpler and more expensive the article
the more in demand it is. Silver rivals
gold, and the exquisite gold hatpins, hair
pins, lacenins, scarfpins and brooches are
all duplicated in the silver.
SILVER IS THE RAGE,
Silver, in toilet articles, is paramount
this year, and there are the most exquisite
silver backed brushes, silver handled combs,
silver framed hand glasses, and cut glass,
silver topped toilet bottles, beside innumer
ab'e boxes completely equipped for every
branc1. of the feminine toilet, with the
silver mounted articles. The proprietors of
the jewelry 6tores are happy, the sales have
been very cood thus far, and they expect a
"whooping up" trade from this time to the
bolidavs.
The sales of diamonds have been abnor
mally lame. The prospective increase in
price of these beautilnl stones occasioned by
the London syndicate purchasing exten
sively in the diamond fields of South Africa
has resulted in a "laying in" of the spark
lers by those who had the ready cash. There
is nothing particularly new in settings or in
jewelry proper, except the corsage pin,
and that is an extravagant economy,
if two such words can be reconciled, for
when one of these pins is worn no other
jewelry is required or even admissible. There
are hut three of them in the city; one repre
sents an orchid, natural size and color,
enamel work done in Jfew York, by a real
French artist on solid gold and set with
diamonds; its cost is $300. The second is a
spray of apple blossoms, manufactured in
the same way and with diamond settings;
the other one fs a pink rosebud set with the
same lovely stone.
VEEY PBETTY STEMS.
They all have exquisitely twisted gold
stems, and are the very latest conceat in the
jewel line. They may be put to various
uses, confining drapery principally, either
at the shoulder, belt or side. As before
stated, when worn, no other jewelry is ad
missible, for they are so very large and con
spicuous. IX THE SAME STOEES
are the most exquisite vases, fancy articles,
pot ponrri and tete a tete tea sets in Crown
Derby, Eoval "Worcester, Doulton and
Sevres, besides beautilnl statues and bnsts
.in jtalian marble. In one store all those
vhohave used the toilet lotions and creams
of Madam Becamier, the famons French
beauty, may feast their eyes upon a fac
simile of ber classically shaped bead ana
delicately chiseled features. It is one of the
prettiest pieces of marble on exhibit at the
present time.
' A bronze statue that attracted a great deal
of attention in a window yesterday was
"The First Bath," by Gaston Serena, and
Pittsburg claims the only piece of his work
in this country thus far. It certainly is
divinely natural; the little fellow,
perched upon his father's shoulders,
ready for the plunge, is, by his
countenance, in a state of fright and
rebellion. Clock sets are very popular
among Christmas purchasers. They consist
of a handsome little clock with two can
delabras corresponding in color, material
and design. The favorite design is the
Louis XV., the irregular and fantastic, but
some very modern ones are shown in which
little Cupids hold the candles.
THEY CAN'T BE SPOILED.
The jewelry and toy trades, are the only
ones that the warmer weather does not affect
unpleasantly, consequently the dealers are
not;crumbling at "Old Probabilities," as the
fur dealers and furnishing men and
clothiers are.
The stock in the emporiums over which
Santa Clans is supposed to reign is unusu
ally large and complete, though no special
novelties are shown. That branch of trade
has reached sucha perfected state that to
invent a new thing is almost impossible.
Tor the baby who "has never seen a Christ
mas yet" there are rattles, rattles in such
profusion and variety that the most tvranni
cal little elf could not fail to be "rattled"
oy the display, and dolls, especially for his
liabyship, dolls that an occasional bath in
haby'a mouth will not hurt either the doll
or the baby. Tooth coaxers in ivory and
silver, with which to assist the little pearls
in their egress into the world of ahs and
ohs always occasioned by their appearance,
are quite common.
For the older toddlers are cunning little
rocking chairs, sofas, pianos, fifes, horns,
drums, whips, canes, goats, all sorts of me
chanical toys, express wagons, with and
without horses; soldier sets including cap,
drum, sword and knapsack, in which the
little hero will loot and feel very fierce
horses of every kind, the old-fashioned rock
ing horse and the patient rocking horse, the
horse on wheels, and the horse without
wheels, and every one warranted not to
throw the tiny rider.
CABS IS- DEMAND.
A miniature street car company must be
selling out, for lots of street car stock is for
sale, drivers and all, even to the signs upon
thecars, "This car for the Exposition" and
"This- car for toe parks," etc, etc The
wee little mothers have well-filled or
phan asylums from which to select the little
ones to oe lovea, pettea, caressed, rocked,
scolded, spanked and banished. The doll
family in three generations is in
the -.city awaiting permanent homes.
There is the baby doll in its
-pretty little mull robes snd merino cloak
the young lady doll, the mother doll and
the grandmother with her cap, spectacles
and knittings. Dolls that are mutes, and
dolls that are not mutes, chatty little talka
tive creatures that can net er cause enmity
between themselves and their sweet little
mistresses by their power of speech, because
ther must be "wound up" before they can
talk, and their dear little mammas are al
waya "wound Tip," and so have the advan
tage.
For the benefit of the doll familv pw..
ithinc that is at all conducive to the petite
mistresses' comfort or pleasure has been
manufactured in miniature for them brass
bedsteads, cradles, carriages, Bofas, entire
bed room suites, complete dining room ser
vices, table, chairs, aishes, and luxuriously
upholstered furniture for parlor and library,
also every modern convenience known to the
kitchen ot the most elegantly furnished
home.

ble trinkets requiring a moderate or a lavish
expenditure of money, as the family purse
mar suggest. The furriers and clothiers
are inclined to think the jewelers and fancy
goods merchants combined to get a cor
ner on the weather, and have re
galed the public with the qual
ity best suited to increase their trade
In the fur line, although heavily stocked
with everything new and nice and soft and
warm, the dealers are selling nothing, and
cannot hope for any Christmas returns un
less a polar wave strikes soon. In seal
coats their trade has been unusually good
and not affected by the weather in the
least, ior as they say, a lady decides in July
that she is going to purchase a new seal,
and long before the time for cold weather
she gives her order, and has the soft, silky
garment laid away for the first cold snap.
There is nothing particularly new in the
holiday line of gents' furnishing goods.
Some novelties are shown in hand-painted
and embroidered neckwear, vvery handsome
bath robes, bath slippers, smoking jackets,
and the usual stock of umbrellas and canes.
The trade at these places is so uniformly
good during the entire year vthat the slight
depression in the underwear trade does not
affect their urbanity to any marked degree.
The gentlemen buy everything with their
usual extravagance
TICKLED MEECHAKTS.
The countenance of the average dry goods
merchant fairly beams with satisfaction for
their trade has been immense Their onlj
trouble is where to get the goods to meet
the demand. They have had three times
the stock this year of any previous year,
and in some lines are completly sold out,
and it still lacks two weeks of Christmas.
Their stores are very attractive, and most
awfully crowded. The handkerchief counter
is a favorit e one, also the linen counter,
where all the lovely dinner and lunch
cloth are displayed. In fancy goods their
counters rival the Jewelry stores in the as
sortment and the beauty of the articles dis
played. The umbrella counters attract in
numerable buyers, and the line carried this
year is unusually extensive and handsome
In tbe candy stores great preparations are
in progress to make the annual attack of
dyspepsia more appetizing in form than
ever. Boxes for the toothsome sweets are
obsolete, and exqnisite little baskets of
every size and shape, in all the pretty straws,
will be nscd for the Christmas candy in
stead. Modjeska rails at the Americans for
being a candy-loving and indulging race,
but, with temptation put in such irresistible
form, how can they abstain, and isn't it pre
ferable anyway to smoking cigarettes, as she
does?

How often has been remarked the wonder
fnl prosperity of the Hamilton music house,
step by step upward, each yeai increasing
the business, till to-day it stands pre-eminently
ahead of all others.
The cause of this is apparent. From the
beginning he has placed before his patrons
pianos and organs of such merit and worth
that they not only please those who possess
them, hnt also their neighbors and friends;
the instruments speak their own qualities.
The names of Decker Bros., Knabe,
Fischer and Estey pianos, and Estey, and
Story & Clark organs are praised by
artists and amateurs. In what other sales
room do you find such an array of first-class
instruments? They challenge comparison.
For the holidav "trade Hamilton has on
display a beautiful and endless variety of
these matchless instruments which you can
buy at very low prices and on terms
the most accommodating. It will pay
you to see them before you purchase The
salesroom is open every nieht till 9 o'clock.

The Larimer ATenae Passenger Eoad Ordi
nance Was Passed.
TBACTIOff LINE OPPOSITION NO GOOD
Both branches of Pittsburg Councils met
yesterday afternoon, but there was not much
transpired in the way of vocal musie Out
side of a few raps at the Southside members
by Messrs. Magee and Duncan, the proceed
ings were harmonious and peaceful.
On the call of wards in the Select branch
the following ordinances and petitions were
presented and properly referred: Author
izing the Federal Street and Pleasant Val
ley Passenger Railway Company to use ani
mal power, electricity or cables on their
lines in this city, and allowing the said
company to change from one to the other, as
may be desired, also allowing the company
to construct double tracks on Duquesne
way, Seventh and Ninth streets; author
izing the grading, paving and curbing of
Margaretta street; authorizing a sewer on
Carson street, from South Second street to
the Monongahela bridge; authorizing the
grading, paving and curbing of Washing
ton street, from Beltzhoover avenue to a
point east
A number of resolutions were presented
and adopted requesting the Finance Com
mittee to make provision in the next appro
priation for certain improvements. Mr.
Treusch's resolution was for the repairing
of Seventh street and Evans alley; Mr. .Nis
bet's resolution was for 515,000 to construct
and equip an engine house in the Thirty
first ward, but Mr. Bobertson amended it to
$30,000 for the purpose of including the
Thirty-second and Thirty-fifth wards in the
same improvement; another resolution was
to have Tayior, Edmond. Penn and Liberty
streets, Seventeenth ward, repaved, the rea
sons urged being that these were of the first
to be paved with wooden blocks 18 years
ago, and the blocks having rotted the streets
are in very bad condition. All these reso
lutions were adopted.
MONET FOB MATBONS.
A communication from Chief Brown re
questing tbe transfer oi $3,000 from the
Bureau of Health appropriation to the
Bureau of Police, stated that when the ap
propriations were made, the Finance Com
mittee made no provision for the police
matrons, whose employment was enforced
subsequently by an act of Legislature. The
police matrons' salaries amounted to $4,500
per year, and the fund of the Police Bureau
would fall f3,000 short for the year. The
resolution was indorsed by Controller Mor
row, and was adopted by Councils.
The attention ot Mr. Nisbet having been
called to the condition of the Beck's Bun
schindery through the columns of the
Southside edition of The Dispatch, be
presented a resolution charging the schin
dery with being a nuisance, polluting the
water which the Southside people drink,
and calling on the Bureau of Health and
the Health Committee on Public Safety to
investigate, and that the City Attorney be
instructed to look into the legal status of
the city in the case
When the ordinance granting tne use oi
certain East End streets to the Larimer Ave
nue Passenger Bailway Company, was pre
sented and called up for passage, Mr.
Keating presented a protest from the Pitts
burg Traction Company, who had requested
him to state their claim. The route of the
proposed line begins at the intersection of
Penn and Collins avenues. The ordinance
also includes a branch line out Broad street,
and provides Tor the use of cables for mo
tive power, the line to be commenced
within nine mouths and completed within
two years. " m
TBETB CHAKTEB ANTEDATED.
Mr. Keating said that the Pittsburg
Traction had taken out a charter for tbe
same route as the Larimer avenue com
pany proposed on the 13th of last August,
while the charterof the last named company
was dated November 20, several months
later. Councils paid but little attention to
the protest, however, and the ordinance was
passed by a vote of 26 to 1, Mr. Beilly'i
vote being the only negative.
The Finance Committee reported favorably
on exonerating the Home for Destitute
Women from water taxes for 1888 and 1889.
The resolution was adopted. A resolution
requesting the Chief of the Department of
Public Works to make an estimate of cost
of repairing Butler from Forty-eighth to
Forty-ninth streets was adopted.' A resolu
tion for the appointment of a special" com
mittee to act in conjunction with the Cham
ber of Commerce in securing the necessary
legislation to present the encroachments on
the rivers and harbors ot Pittsburg was
adopted.
A number of minor ordinances were
passed.
In Common Councils a number of papers
were presented, chief among which were the
ones granting the Brilliant Electric Light
Company the right to erect poles and wires,
and providing that the city shall not pay
for street lamps more than 75 per cent of the
rates charged private consumers; compell
ing owners ot lots on streets which are
sewered to make connection with the sewer,
using a nine-inch terra cotta pipe, and au
thorizing the Chief of the Department of
Public Works to lay the connections at the
expense or the property owners, if the latter
neglect to do so.
Mr. Duncan presented a resolution de
claring that Soho street, from Center avenue
to Filth avenne, is impassable to pedes
trians on acconnt of mud, and directing the
Chief of the Department of Pnblic Works
to clean the sidewalks. Passed.
A resolution was also introduced by Mr.
Duncan, and passed, to bnild a bulkhead on
Schaffer street, to keep the roadway in
place
Mr. Bigham, for the Committee on Pnblic
Works, presented ordinances for opening
Webster street, Monongahela street. McKee
place, and for a sewer on Twenty-eighth
street; all of which were passed.
ME. CAENAHAN'S EEPOKT.
Mr. Carnahan, from the Committe on Sur
veys,Tresented a number of ordinances es
tablishing the grade of streets. The princi
pal were Bertha street, Water street, from
Smithfield to Grant street; locating Forbes
avenue, from Boyd to Diamond street, which
were passed.
The report o! the Department of Awards
on a number of contracts was approved.
Mr. H. C. Howard wrote a letter in which
he stated his bid to grade and pave Grand
view avenue was the lowest by $500, but was
refused because his bond was irregular. The
latter fact he denied.
Under Select Council business the Lari
mer avenue railway was taken up and passed.
Tbe ordinance authorizing Bea & Co. to
build a bridge over Greenough street, was
passed finally. A resolution to transfer
.$3,000 from the Health to the Police Bureau
was passed. The resolution directing the
portrait of William Pitt to be hnng back pf
amended to provide for hanging it in tbe
City Clerk's office The free bridge resolu
tion as passed in Select Council was adopt
ed. The resolutions relative to repaying
Seventh street and Evans alley were amend
ed so as to call for an estimate on the cost
only.
The resolution for including in the esti
mates of 1890, $30,000 for engine honses in
tbe Thirty-first, Thirty-second and Thirty
fifth wards was. amended by Mr. Duncan,
who added $10,000 for tbe Thirteenth ward.
Mr. Bigham said the Thirteenth ward was
trying to hang on to the coattails of the
Southside Mr. Duncan replied that Mr.
Bigham talked as if tbe Southside was a
section of the city by itself, and the South-
side members always acted that way; they
never looked after tbe Interests of the city
at large. He hoped that this sectional feel
ing would never prevail in Councils. Chair-
said. .air. J8;gfc looked oa the.
Southside as a foreign country, and was
warding off invasion. The amendment was
defeated by a vote of 9 ayes to 14 noes, and
the resolution passed as it came from Select
Council.
The Beck Bun schindery resolution was
adopted, and Council adjourned.
