The motto of this Evangelical v Alliance," Unum corpus sumut in Uhrttio," was -well chosen, aa Baptists, Presbyterians, Methodists, Episcopalians, Congregational ists and others mixed as a happy family of Christian workers. The addresses read were all filled with the widest Christian sym pathy, which was well ushered in by the opening address of "W. E. Dodge, president of the Alliance, in which he said; "We are not living in the world of two centuries or even 50 years ago. We cannot afford to ipend time or energy on differences which do not affect our vital belief or our loyal service lor Christ, and onr brothers about us who are in suffering and ignorance. "We hope soon to be in our Father's presence, where evcrythint: that divide us now will seem unworthy of a thonjrht. Whysbould we not acree to reduce these differences to the smallest point now. while we are doing the Father's work on earth? We shall never have the respect or confluence of the godless world nbout lis till we do this." ..,, The address by Rev. L. T. Chamberlain,D. D., Js said to have bepn one of the most striling. Civilization." he said, "is the snm total of human progress The test of a nation's civiliza tion is the intellicence and character of the individual Christians. It becomes the more manifest that Christian elements must be at the foundation. Onr civilization is still in the formation period. There are imminent penis inch as immigration, materialism, intellectual pride, antagonism of classes and interests, the controlline power of cities, illiteracy and un justifiable divorce. Thercmedial saving power is to bo found in the spirit and teachlns of the living, reienlng Christ, to whom has been Given The earnest words of the Rev. Moses D. Hoge, of Richmond, Va, were heartily applauded, as in fpeatitiR of the importance of Christian co operation in awakeninc the moral sentiment of the community, he said: "Iaonot believe the world is KCttin worse. I have too much con fidence in God and too much respect for the Bible for that. But some parts of it are. I do not believe the pulpit is gctttns weaken but tome who try to fill it are. I do not believe iniquity Is coins to triumph: but never was it eo open-faced as now. we see it in the great trusts, the schemes to cheat widows and or phans, in the attempt to defraud men ot honestly cainedmeans in thee ways we see tho nubile conscience debauched. The rectification of tho morals of trade, the purification of poll tics, the harmonizing of sectional differences, the reconciliation of denominations, the arrest of Sabbath desecration, the settlement of in ternational questions by arbitration instead of by the sword, the unfortunate relations of labor and capital these are problems that demand our attention and which require time to work out. The people must be educated to the ideal of a country having moral relations between the people and the government, and between the people themselves." At the closing meetinsr Dr. Phillips Brooks, of Boston, and Dr. C H. Parkhurst, of New York Citv, filled the Temple with people, and tho nonnta with farts, anmments. illustrations. appeals and epigrams. "What might be done If men were wlsel ht clorlous deeds, my sufferings brother, , Would they unite In love and right. And cease their scorn of one another. Oppression's heart might be imbued With kindling drops oriovlng kindness, .And knowledge pour from Bhore to Ehore Light on the eyes of mental blindness. What might be done? This might be done And more than this, my suffering brother, More than the tongue e'er said or sung If men were wise and loved each other. Church Notes.

Pitts burg will go-right along and celebrate her Christmas and ought to do so with a happy heart, a clear commercial conscience and a tuneful throat. In a portion of the city churches a formal znusico-religious recogni tion or the day will be deferred until the following Snnday. And right here it may be observed that those churches which omit formal observ ance of Christmas Dajr afford their congre gations an opportunity of visiting the churches which do provide musical pabu lum. If any theologian destred toget up a nice little argument upon the spiritual re liability of church members, who, in lieu of backsliding, slide into some other church to have their ears" tickled with the pomp and circumstance attending the production of elaborate programmes of music, there is ample opportunity; for in almost every one of the churches presenting moraine services there will be found a multitude of listeners extending froth aisle to altar. A series of the mtrre elaborate programmes prepared for the day itself and the following Bundav is herewith appended. It will be apparent to those "up" in musical matters that the quality of the Christmas music for this year is quite metropolitan. episcopal services.

The Committee Seems to Rather Favor Bnlldlng Tbnn Baying. The special Committee on Free Bridges met yesterday afternoon in the office of City Attorney Moreland. Mr. More land reported that he has been so busily en gaged in court during the past week that he has been unable to prepare the opinion on the free bridge question which the commit tee asked for. However, he would try to have an opinion ready by the next meeting. Mr. Robertson, chairman of a sub-committee, reported that they had written to Harrisbarg and found out that bridge com panies do not furnish the Auditor General with the figures that the bridge cost. The committee had learned from those interested that the Point bridge had cost $760,000, and the Smithfield street bridge $700,000. But just what the bridges could be purchased for the men interested refused to state. They were willing, however, to negotiate for free foot passengers, the city to pay a stipulated sum annually. Mr. Robertson lurther stated that he had a talk with an experienced bridge builder and civil engineer, and he had stated that a bridge could be built that would satisfy all purposes for less than $2o0,000. The bridge would be an iron strncture, and could be bnilt to accommodate cable cars, vehicle traffic and foot passengers. This would not include the approaches. The city could spend as much on them as it saw ht. Mr. Carr said it would be bad policy to think of purchasing any of the bridges when one could be built lor less money. Mr. Monroe said it was useless to talk of purchasing a bridge. The onlf plan 'for the city was to build a bridge, which could be done for much less money. Mr. Robertson said tbat he had learned there were already five charters for bridges over the Monongahela river, one at Ross street, one at South Eighth street, one at Twenty-second street, one between Twenty second and Twenty-eighth street and one at Brown's station.

A LOCAL HOTEL PB0PR1ET0E SCALPED 1 "What lovely hair that yonng lady has, but what a decided contrast in color with her eyes." The above remark heard in the street car yesterday, combined with the stylish," al most stunning appearance of the object ot the remark, attracted the attention of the writer, and compelled admiration. Close scrntiny, however, just above and around the ear revealed the fact that art had lent its aid to the already bonnteous gifts nature had bestowed on the young lady. The "lovely hair" was transferable, and when the shades of night have fallen, in stead of reposing od the pillow with thb charming wearer, it is transferred to a daintily perfumed case on the toilet dressers, and a cunning little white cap of exquisite texture takes its place. This dispof al of the pretty locks is de cidedly matter-of-Iact, to say the least, and leaves no opportunity of weaving romances about the coquettish curls that cluster 'round tho fair brow of the sleeper: but it certainly has its advantages also. "When xhe -rosy (?) light Of morn doth dawn," the muffins and the steak arc not ruined by delay cansed by onr lair ideal dressing her hair. No: a touch of deft fingers here and there puts in place a refrac tory lock, and clap it goes on the head, and we have belore us a most natural delusion once more. POPULARITY OP 'WIGS. It is wonderful how many people, both ladies and gentlemen, resort to the use of wigs. Some indulge their vanity, a in the case of yonng ladies with dark eyes and hair who wish to be especially noticeable, and, as the bleaching process requires a vast amount of care, they have the scissors used, and then pay from 25 to 550 for a covering of the desired shade. Other ladies, through severe illness, lose their hair and are com pelled to resort to artifice, and not seldom does it happen that they continue using the wigs indefinitely, as they are less trouble some than hair growing upon the head. They are a perfect boon to elderly ladies whose hair has lost all beauty by the ravages of time, but they are iar mora expensive when made of gray or white hair, costing lrom sou up in the neighborhood of $200. - Tbeyare to be had in any color, and dressed in every conceivable manner. Among youthful people a tendency to the short curled wig is very pronounced, but the more mature devotees select a wig in ac cordance with their age, and dressed in the Erevailing style. They are held on the ead by the aid of springs so skillfully ar ranged that it requires n shrewd eye aud some knowledge of the weak points to detect the deception. The most difficnltjp.irt of the artist's work is in getting the hair to look P-rfectly natural around the ears and neck, more so With a lady's than with a gentle man's wig. A HOTEL MAN SCALPED. To view the numerous bald heads in the theaters, hotels and restaurants, inspires scepticism regarding the use of wigs by gentlemen, but the dealers in hair goods are authority that they are the most profitable patrons. From the first appearance of the wee little bald spot until it extends around the full circumference of the head, art is re sorted to. These baby wigs that are de signed to cover the tiny spots are called "toupees," and ore always made to order, because no two men ever have bald spots exactly alike, no matter how much analogy may exist between them in other particulars. These little toupees are kept in place by the use of French paste, and if a man is economical and takes off his toupee when he retires they will last from six months to a year, or until the bald spot outgrows them. They are very deceptive in their nature, so much 60 that the tonsorial artist is sometimes ignorant ot its presence. One of the prominent hotel proprietors of Pitts burg, while on a recent visit to JKew York and stopping at the Hoffman House con cluded to have his hair trimmed. He seated himself in the chair and gave the usual instructions to the nrtist; i e., to trim the sides and back of his hair, but not to touch the top. With the usual neatness and dispatch of a New York barber the trimming was completed, bnt when giving the finishing strokes with brush and comb the teeth of the latter caugnt in the net ot the toupee, end was very unceremoniously jerked irom the owner's head. The surprise of the man was so great and his apologies so profuse and sincere that .he was forgiven immediately, but was warned never to let it occur again. While the toupee was absent the hotel man concluded to haye a shampoo. PAVORITE SHAMPOOS. ' Among gentlemen the beaten white of an egg is the most popular, and a shampoo is generally a weekly occurrence. Some who think frequent washing of the head benefi cial to the hair indulge their'fancy to the extent of three or four times a week, and "top off" with singeing; an operation that loses some of the horrible snggestiveness that the name implies, when it" is learned that just a common gas lighting taper is used, and only the very ends of the hair are touched. The verdict of the many who go through the singeing process is to the effect that a better and a healthier crop of hair is the direct result. Ladies depend entirely upon the hair dresser to whom they go fora shampoo, and seldom evince any interest abont the com position of the wash. It requires from 30 minutes to two hours, according to the length and amount, to thoroughly and sys tematically wash a lady's hair. Xhe drying is, of course, the part of tho operation that ta-esthe time, and in spite of any and all pew devices lor quickening the process by steam and heat in other forms, the old fashioned way of rubbing the hair dry is still considered the best. Experts in the line claim that tho rubbing of the hair, and more especially the scalp, is the most benefi cial part of the whole performance, as it re moves all the dry cuticle, and the scalp re news its life and vigor. Oily hair, though very inconvenient, denotes a perfectly healthy scalp, but requires care nt least once a month. The dryer hair does not ab sorb the dust to the same extent, but is seldom luxuriant in growth. ART in advertising. Send for estimates and designs. General printing. , Pittsburg Photo-no.

O. A. Smiley & Ce. J Clerk MeGonnrgle Prepared III eert Under the Breeka Act. Clerk of Courts' HcQnnnegle yesterday com pleted a statement showing the amount ot fines imposed in this county under tho Brooks law since the first conviction under It fur illegal liquor selling in May, 1888. The total number of convictions for selling withont license, on Sunday and to minors, up to date, are 133. The fines Imposed in these cases aggregated $.30,5G3. The sum collected, however, was only 2,300. This is accounted for by the fact that in nearly every case the fine was accompanied by impris onment, and the convicted parties generally having no property, served out their One. The showing is not a favorable one compared with those of the preceding years, when the fine was only JSCL Then nearly every one to avoid imprisonment paid his fine, and some years a good round sum was realized. The Controller's reports show that in 1831. $2,585 OS fines and costs were collected; in 1882, S35.9GS) OS; 1S83, J8.118 78; 1851. HIM 03; 18SS. $5,879 8(5; 188 $5,858 46; 1887. 810,461 4 The large amountf or 18S2 was due to the tight made by the liquor dealers under a decision ot Judge Btowe's and refusing to take out a license under the then existing law. Judge Stows was reversed by tho Supreme Court, and all who had acted under it wcro fined. The large Anipunt in 18S7 was due to the efforts of SpecrSl Agent Mctall, who was alter the liqdor dealers that year. In every case, thougn, tnu fines collected for a year wcro largor than the amount collected since May, 18S8, nearly two years. HIGQLI COMPLIMENTED. The Grand Jury Takca n Vacation Over the Halldns-s.

A bill in equity was filed yesterday by the Bnrgess and Town Council of Millvalo borough against the Pitttburg and Western Railroad Company. It is stated that in ISSOan ordinance was passed granting the rallrpad company a right of way along river aveane in the borough. It was conditioned, however, that the railroad should be constructed along the side of the street next the river, and leave a clear roadway of 33 feet between tho tracks and the property line. A short time ago the railroad company took possession of the street and commenced to build a trestle and lay tracks for yard pur poses. It is claimed that in violation of the agreement they have taken possession of near ly the whole roadway. Piles have been driven in the middle of the street and a trestle bnilt on them, leaving for wagons a space of about 12 feet wide and 7 feet 6 inches high. An injunction is asked for to restrain them from continuing the work, and an order compelling them to remove what has already been built, and to comply with the terms of the ordinance. Hearing Postponed. The hearing before George P. Hamilton, Esq., in the equity case of H, E. Saff ord against J. O. Brown and tho Board of Awards, relative to the purchase of two Amoskeag engines, was to have been continued yesterday, but owing to the absence from 'the city of one of the attor neys in tho case, the matter was postponed until Monday afternoon.
