f-4vy THE PITTSBTJRGk DISPATCH, ' FRIDAY,' JANTTART 24, 189(5. 6 f MAKME A SCHEDULE New League Magnates Doing Some Great Work. PITTSBUBG IS ALL EIGHT. Local Gun Clubs Pail to Agree Abont a Match. THE SPORTIXG KEWS OF THE DAT The schedule committee of the new base ball league met and nearly completed a 'schedule of championship games for the season. Some prominent dates are fore shadowed. The local gun experts failed to agree on a match. There is to be a great dog show in Chicago. Ad Gumbert ex plains his case. The new baseball League magnates had a busy time at the Hotel Anderson yesterday. The Schedule Committee commenced its work of arranging a schedule of games for the championship season, and did extremely well under the circumstances. The hotel cor ridors were crowded wltb Brotherhood en thusiasts and baseball players, and many a great game was played and won in fancy amid tremendous crowds. The committee did not entirely complete its work, but this would have been done had not a snag been struck when August was reached. That unfortunate hitch caused a retreat that caused the work to be extended until to-day. The gentlemen present were: President Addi son, J. P. Hayde and Secretary Brunell, Chi cago; Al Johnson, Cleveland; John M. Ward, Brooklyn, and B. Hilt, Philadelphia. Buffalo was represented by proxy. Manager Hanlon and Fred Carroll, of the local club, were also present. KOT VEKT EAST TO DO. Many people think that a schedule can be put together just as easily as fixing a multiplica tion table, but the deliberations of the com mittee yesterday knocked this notion on the head. The fact that the SO per cent system prevailed all round even led some of the mem bers of the committee to think the work would be very easy. Ho ever, there were many rocks and quicksands put in appearance that were not expected. For two or three hoars everything went so well that at 2 o'clock August had been reached, and it was expected that the schedule would be completed at 5 o'clock. But the unfortunate snag appeared. Mr. Johnson, who was late In arriving, discovered that a race meeting in Cleveland bad been lost sight of, and that the Cleveland club was at home during the races. This would not do, and the work already done bad to be entirely thrown to one side and a new start made Before commencing on a new schedule the members bad their dinners, and they resumed cvork like beavers. SECBETABTBRUXEIX EXPLAINS. At 9 o'clock an adjournment was made for supper and Secretary Brunell made the fol lowing statement: "We will work on the schedule until early morning and may get it finished sometime to morrow. At present I can give some certain and probable fixtures. The season will open In the week commencing April 21 and will finish in the first week in October. We will play 140 games. The western clubs will open the season in the West, and the eastern clubs in the Bast. Chicago will open in Pittsburg and Cleveland in Buffalo. Kew York will open in Philadel phia, and Boston in Brooklyn, This was the ar rangement in our first schedule and 1 think it will stand. The eastern clubs will play in the East on Decoration Day, and Pittsburg, according to our joint schedule, will clay in Philadelphia on that day. Chicago maybe in Boston and Buffalo in N ew York. On July 1 1 thinkBrooclyn will be in Pittsburg. We have all agreed to this on our first sched ule, and I think the date will stand. 1 cannot say what other leading features will be agreed to, and some that I have mentioned maybe changed. At any rate I think we will get out a satisfactory schedule." PITTSBURG ALIi BIGHT. Doubtless the above dates are satisfactory to Pittsburg; indeed, the local clnb has nothing at all to complain about if the above arrange ment goes through. It shows that Manager Hanlon's influence has had some effect on the schedule makers. A better club to open the season could not well be secured than Chicago, and Brooklyn will without doubt be a good card for tbe Fourth of July. The Committee on Printing will meet to-day. The members are: Al Johnson, Cleveland, Buffalo, and Ed Andrews. Ibe latter is in Florida and his place will be filled. Last evening John M. Ward expressed great confidence in Judge O'Brien's opinion being in his favor. "If argument and evidence go for anything." said Mr. Ward, "I will win easily." Mr. Ward is looking tolerably well considering the mental anxiety and chysical exertion he has lately undergone. He speaks well of tbe general prospects of tbe new League. Al Johnson, President Addison, Secretary Brunell and Mr. Hayde also talk with great confidence of the new venture. SWARTWOOD'S CASE. Ed Talk Abont a Pointed Letter From the Bnmllton Officials. Ed Swartwood, tbe popular ball player, means to have his case submitted to the .National Arbitration Committee. He has just received a very insulting letter from an official of tbe Hamilton club stating that he. Swartwood, never made any special arrangements regard ing his release, and that he has been working against tbe interests of the Hamilton club. Regarding this. Swartwood said yesterday afternoon: "Now there never was a clearer case nor a fairer one than mine. The facts are so plain that it is shameful for any of the Hamilton club officials to try and prevent my signing with any other club. When at Detroit Man ager Leadley wanted to buy my release, but ho was a friend of mine and I said, wait until December 1 and I'll be free. Now in doing that I was also depriving myself of one-half of the purchase money. However. I mean to have this thing settled, and I will write to Mr. Byrnes and have tbe case bronght before the Arbitration Committee as soon as possible." Doubtless Swartwood has a good, in fact an absolutely clear case, and it will be a disgrace on tbe Arbitration Committee to keep that filayer in suspense a day longer than is abso utely necessary Swartwood has a good offer from Toledo, and will sign with that clnb as soon as be gets bis release. TON DEE AHE DISGUSTED. Tbe Boss Manager OflVrs to Pell Hit Fran cbisr for S3.O00. St. Louis. January 23. Chris Von derAbe is so disheartened at Cnmiskey's and tbe other star's desertions, that he offers to sell the Browns' franchise for 5.000, the purchaser to assume tbe liabilities ot the club which are 26.000. Von der Abe said last night: "I have accu mulated nothing in two years but debts. Now. I want to get ont of the business, and Til sell tbe outfit, including lease on the park and con tracts with 15 men. among whom aro Chamber lain, McCarthy, Stivetts.Fuller, Duffee and ten others, for 31,000, 5,000 cash, and the purchas ers to assume tbe indebtedness. I am dis gusted with the way things are going, and I want to get out. I have better business inter ests in view." Postponed Their Meeting. WAsnnfGTOX, January 2a The meeting of tbe National League, which was to have been held next week Tuesday, the 2Sth inst has been postponed until the following day, Wednesday, at 12 o'clock noon. Chairman Young, of tbe Board of Arbitration, has called a special meeting of tbe board, to be held at tbe Fifth Avenue Hotel next Wednesday morning, the 29th inst. The New Grand Stand. Mayor McCallin, Manager Hanlon and other new clnb officials visited Exposition Park yesterday morning and decided to place the grand stand at tbe corner of School street and Booth avenue. This is a splendid location. Jluimv Galvin has been appointed superin tendent ol work, and tbe contracts will be let to-day. Abont That Offer. A little controversy has sprung up regarding an alleged offer of $4,200 per season to Fred Car roll, by tbe local League club. Messrs. Scan drett and Nimick most emphatically deny this. Carroll says that J. S. Bobb, Jr., made the offer, but the latter will not say that he was repre senting the club in any way. GUMBERrS VERSION. The Young; Flicker Explain a 'Feature of His Case. Ad Gumbert claims that he has been mis represented in the controversy between Mana ger Hanlon and himself. He says that his con tract was only for one year, and, therefore, he could not want guarantee for three jean. Regarding the five days' notice feature, Gum bert says the contract reads as follows: "It is further understood and agreed between the parties hereto that in case default be made in the payment to said Gumbert of any of the semi-monthly installments of salary heretofore provided for, for a period of fire days after the same becomes doe, the said Gumbert may at his option terminate this agreement, and upon notice from the said Gumbert to the said Han Ion, or his assignee, to that effect, this agree ment shall cease and determine, and the provi sions thereof become noil and void, reserving, however, the right to said Gumbert to collect any and all salary remaining due at the time of giving such notice." "Does Hanlon recall the fact," said Gum bert. "that when 1 said I wanted the guarantee on the contract, ana not on an extra slip like the others are getting, be said it was all rightr OS THE SOUTHERN TRACK.

Representatives of the Herron Hill Gun club and the Glenwood Sportsmen's club met at this office last evening to try to arrange a match between five members of each club. There was such a wide difference of opinion, how ever, regarding the rules to be used that no match was made. The Glenwood representatives wanted to shoot under the Bogardus rules and the Herron Hill people objected. The latter finally sug gested two matches for 100 a side each, one under the American rules and tbe other under Bogardus. This was all right hut a hitch occurred as to what Bogardus rnl;s meant. The Glenwood renre- sentatives claimed that tbey meant that the gun be kept under tbe elbow Until the bird was on the wing: the other party argued that tbey only meant the gun to be kept under the elbow unui tne reieree or some otner person shouted "shoot." The Glenwood delegation wanted this point referred to Bogardus, but this was refused. Tbe Herron Hill shooters then offered to shoot a match under the Bogardus rules jnst as tbey read: and the Glenwood shooters demanded that they be Interpreted as tbe Glenwood Club had practiced and shot underthem. Finally the Herron Hill people said: "We won't shoot, you people under your own rules." Negotiations then were declared off. A GREAT BENCH SHOW.

Carroll kept him against the ropes with his sledge-hammer swings, and knocked him down in the seventh and last round by a right-bander on tbe jaw. Lucie struck tbe floor heavily with his head, and it was eight seconds before he could get to his feet, and then it was only to be knocked down and ont by another of Carroll's heavy swings.

DOS DICKINSON CALLED DOWN. Colonel Torrey Advises Him to Bead a BUI Before Criticising It. St. Louis, January 23. Colonel Jay L. Torrey, of this city, author of the Torrey bankrupt bill, will print to-morrow an open letter to ex-Postmaster General Don M Dickinson, in reply to the interview with the latter in relation to the bankruptcy bill, which was reported in these dispatches a day or two ago. He says, in part: You say that yonr examination of this bill bas been cursory. When you shall find time to make it thorough I do not believe that you will consider the law "too elaborate and complicated." It is shorter than any law mat nas ever Deen araitea wnicn covers the subject. You express the fear that this law may develop certain objectionable features which existed in the old law. They are as un like as two laws possibly can be. It is not expected that even this arrange ment will make Insolvent estates pay 100 cents on the dollar, but it is morally certain that if this law is enacted tho assets of per sons, firms and corporations who cannot or will not pay their debts, will be taken charge of by trustees chosen by the creditors and be ratably, speedily and cheaply distributed to the creditors. The measure is In aid of commercial credit, and is designed to aid all honest men in the promotion of legitimate callings, and to deter all dishonest men from the pursuit of dishonest or illegitimate callings. I confidently believe, when you have consid ered the bill more lully and compared it with the old law, the other bills pre pared for enactment upon the same subject, and with the English act now in force, that you will find that it is well arranged, a concise statement of tbe principles involved in bank ruptcy, coupled with a perfect, businesslike arrangement of details. A TERI BOUGH T0IAGE. The Steamer Rbynland Reitchcs New York After a Desperate Strngglr. New Yobk, January 23. The steamship Hhynland, which sailed irom Antwerp January 4 ior this port, experi enced some of the ronghest weather ever known on the Atlantic. While in the English Channel she encountered strong gales from northwest heavy seas, bnt in .the Atlantic the gale became a perfect hurricane, with mountainous seas, which swept over her decks. The Bhynland is a large four-masted steamer of 4,000 tons, and withstood these gales easily, pushing ahead steadily in the tremendous and confused seas, at the rate of from eight to 12 miles per hour up to January 12, when one of the most terrific storms ever experienced came on. Samuel Spears, the pilot who took the Shynland out of Haliiax harbor, was an unwilling passenger to New York. Owing to the severe weather he could not be taken ofi outside the harbor. The baggage of the steerage passengers and the steerage were disinfected npon the steamer's arrival at Quarantine. CARELESS OP PUBLIC OPINION. Tbe Fashionable Woman Utterly Indifferent to AH Censure. Hew York Sun.3 "Nobody," said a man whose long resi dence in New York entitles him to the dis tinction of being a deep and old observer, "is so utterly indifferent to public opinion as a fashionable woman. She really does not care a rap one way or the other what the world thinks of her as long as she has a chance to exercise her pet hobbies. I sup pose three of the most tremendous crusades that have ever been made against woman kind were, in the first place, the movement against wearing corsets; then the agitation about the cruelty of women nsing the dead bodies of beautiful song birds ts ornaments for their hats; and, thirdly, the cruelty and injustice of big hats in theaters. "Yet to-day the women go gloriously forth laced to the limit, with their hats covered with the corpses of beautiful birds, and wearing hats that would shame the main sail of a down East schooner. Han Is of no account whatever when he throws himself against a woman's notion of fashion." LOST HIS HARD-EARNED MONET. A Poor Frenchman Itobbcd of His Savings While on a Steamer. rf FECIAL TKLEOHAM TO TUB DtSrATOH.l New Yobk, January 23. Conrad Bernard, a Frenchman, 30 years old, who has been working on a farm in Pennsyl vania for three or four years, arrived in New York this morning, and after visiting a broker's office in Wall street, and exchanging his savings for French money, took passage on the steamer Chateau Lafitte for France. On boarding the steamer he made the acquaintance of a well-dressed, middle-aged man, who told him that he was also from Penn sylvania, and was going back to France. In the afternoon the stranger induced him to place all the money he had between 00 and 600 francs in the hands of his new ac quaintance for safekeeping. The stranger disappeared, and has not been seen since. National crusaders That Title Adopted by the New Tem peraDce Organization AFTER A VERT LIVELY CONTEST. Mrs. Ellen G. Phlnney, of Ohio, Chosen as First President. CHANGE IN THE FORM OP THE PLEDGE. The Use of Uq nors as a Beverage the Only Bill That Will be Fought. The women's non-partisan temperance convention yesterday adopted a constitution and elected' officers for tbe ensuing year. Several names were advocated, but that of the "National Crusaders" was finally se lected. Mrs. Campbell, of Pittsb urg, took a prominent part in the proceedings, and received a number of votes for President, though herself supporting another candi date. Cleveland, January 23. In the "Wom en's Temperance Convention to-day the Committee on Constitution reported through the Chairmau, Mrs. J. Ellen Foster. The report was signed by every member of the committee. The constitution was read by Mrs. "Walker, of Minnesota. The preamble is as follows: Viewing with the deepest solicitude the ap palling evils of intemperance, and believing that a non-partisan, non-sectarian organization of Christian women devoted solely to the cause of temperance is greatly needed, we unite ourselves together for this purpose under the following constitution: It is provided that the officers shall be a president, vice-president, two secretaries and a treasurer. There are to be five de partments of work Evangelical, educa tional, legislative, literary and young wo man's. One section of the constitution de clares that no officer shall pledge the sup port of tbe organization to any political party or any religious sect. Any temper ance society can become auxiliary by sign ing the constitution. The annual meetings are to be held in November, and the mem bers of the Executive Committee will not be permitted to vote thereat. THE NON-PAETISAN PLANK. It was agreed to adopt the constitution section by section. The section which pro vides that the organization shall be non partisan and non-sectarian was agreed to by a standing vote, many of the ladies waving their handkerchiefs. Mrs. Campbell, of Pittsburg, offered a resolution that the Com mittee on constitution present a pledge to be engrafted in the constitution. Mrs. Foster, of Iowa, then presented the follow ing pledge : 1 hereby solemnly promise, God helping me, to abstain from all distilled, fermented and malt liquors, including wine and cider, and to discourage the use of and traffic in the same. Mrs. Foster said that the pledge was just the same as that of the National W. C. T. TJ. Mrs. Dr. Patten offered an amendment Sroviding that the words "as a beverage" e inserted after the word "cider," and after some little disenssion this was agreed to. The name of American "Woman's Chris tian Temperance League given to the con vention at the morning session was short lived, and the new temperance society will march onward under the name of the "Na tional Crusaders." FIGHTING OVEE A NAME. Shortlv after the opening of the afternoon session Mrs. J. Ellen Foster, of Iowa, arose and moved that the vote by which the name of the organization had been fixed be recon sidered. She said she had voted for the present name, bnt good women had come to her and pleaded with her to change it. Mrs. Aldrich, of Iowa, seconded the motion, and it was opened up for discussion. Mrs. Fos ter said that the name "New Crusaders" had been suggested. "The ladies who propose this," said Mrs. Foster, "argue that it is short, and will at tract attention by its newness. It is cer tainly appropriate, for we are here on cru sade giound." "Why not say 'the Crusaders?'" sug- rested Mrs. Campbell, of Pittsburg. "That would be snorter yet. "Nothing but simple modesty caused us to put in the word new," said Mrs. Tilton, of the District of Columbia. Miss Jennie Duly, of Cleveland, said she was unwilling to be called a New Crusader, for she had been one for 15 years. Mrs. Albert, of New York, said: "I like the pro posed name. I have been a crusader, and I am burning with zeal to take up the banner and march forth to battle against the liquor traffic" DECIDED TO CHANGE. The vote on the reconsideration of the name was then taken and the action was re considered by a vote of 64 to 24. Mrs. Cowles, of.Geneva, O., then offered a motion that the new organization be known as the "National Crusaders." Mrs. Aldrich of fered an amendment that it be known as the "National "Women's Christian Crusaders." If she had her own way, she said, she would make it "Cross-Aiders" instead of Crusad ers. She wished to save the words "Christian "Women" and "Temperance," which have so long been identified with the movement. Mrs. Sbortlidge, of Pennsylvania, wanted a name entirely distinctive ot the old party from which they were obliged to withdraw. "We want to start on a platform so good that onr work will not be dwarfed as the work of the other1 organization has been dwarfed in the pasl." The amendment offered by Mrs. Aldrich was pnt to a voti and lost. Mrs. H. M. Ingham, of Cleveland, said that she wanted to enter a protest against the name "Na tional Crusaders." Mrs. Hugh Campbell said that she wanted a name which could be pronounced in! the pulpit without being abbreviated or palled merely by the initials. THE frlNAL STRUGGLE. Mrs. Phinnty, the presiding officer, was called lor. xbe name National Crusaders, " she said, "appeals to me. I was one of the original ciusxders 15 years ago. "We are now doine betterrwork in different ways, but we should neveriforget those days." Mrs. Aldrich's amendment to call the organizationfthe National Crusade Alliance was then put and lost by a vote of 68 to 24. The name National Crusaders was then adopted by u viva voce vote, and the pre amble and I constitution were readopted. Tbe original crusaders present were asked to stand up, arid they numbered 65. Of this number 25 were present at the meeting in Cleveland 'hen the National W."C. T. TJ. was organiz d 15 years ago. In answei to a question, Mrs. Foster gave the lollowinr estimate of the expenses for the ensuinJ year: Salaries. President, 51,200; Geneial Secretary, 81,200; Financial Secretary, ajbout tbe same. Then there should be appropriations for the Becording Secretary aim the heads of departments. Then the National Organizer must be taken care of. Mrs. Foster said that it would require at Idhst $10,000 to conduct affairs of the organization during the ensuing year. THE? ELECTION OP OFFICERS. "When Mrs. Foster had concluded Mrs, ShortlidgeAof Pennsylvania, asked that the convention! proceed to the nomi nation and election of officers. It was suggested at first that the candidates (be nominated by an informal ballot. This plan was abandoned, and the candidates were nominated by their friends. The first to rain the floor was Mrs. Xydia H. Tilton, of the District of Columbia. She said: I nominate the woman for President who has been the generaM of this army; the leader whom God called to encourage us to stand for the principles of non-partlsansblp: tbe woman to whom, more tbannny other man or woman a Brand State owes its constitutional prohibition of tbe liqnor trafnb; tbe only womvn who has been so recognized as a wise leader that a Sen atorial Committee of the United States Con gress have invited her to advise them on temper ance legislation. This woman, more than any other, represents the silent majority ot workers, I nominate J. Ellen Foster, of Iowa. Mrs. Foster said that she had never shirked any duty. She had always stood where the bullets were the thickest, but She could no longer stand out as a picket. "God only knows," said she, "how I rejoice in this day, bnt I cannot be yonr President. I want to hold up the temperance pledge on the platform and work for the prohibition of tbe liquor traffic, and I can do more good on the platform. If you lore me do not write one ballot for me." OBOWINO ENTHUSIASTIC. Mrs. Walker, of Minnesota, said she wanted to nominate the sweetest, the gentlest and the best of women, Mrs. Ellen G. Phin ney, of Ohio. When the applause had died away Mrs. Hugh Campbell, of Pennsyl vania, arose to second the nomination, Mrs. Mary J. Aldrich, ot Iowa, seconded the nomination in a few neat words. Mrs. Phinney attempted to speak, but her re marks were drowned by applause. Miss Jennie Duly arose and placed the name of Mrs. Mary J. Aldrich, of Iowa, in nomina tion. She said that Mrs. Aldrich was one of the best temperance workerR in the coun try and eminently fitted to lead the new movement. "We cannot afford to spare Mrs. Phinney from Ohio," she said, "and I am afraid that her health wonld not be equal to the task." Mrs. "Vogel, ol Illinois, seconded the nomi nation. An ;nformal ballot was then taken and resulted as follows: Mrs. E. J. Phin ney, 100 votes; Mrs. S. J. Aldrich, 37; Mrs. Hugh Campbell, of Pittsburg, 20. Mrs. Phinney's voice trembled with emotion when the result was announced. She expressed thanks for the confidence which had been placed in her, and hoped the formal ballot would be cast for Mrs. Aldrich, of Iowa, for President. THE NEW PKESIDENT. Mrs. Aldrich moved that the informal ballot be declared formal, and that the sec retary be instructed to cast the ballot for Mrs. Phinney. Mrs. Phinney was declared elected, but it is possible that she will re sign before the close of the convention. Mrs. Foster placed the name of Mrs. T. B. Walker, of Minnesota, in nomination for "Vice President. There were no other candi dates and Mrs. Walker was elected, receiv ing 116 votes. Mrs. Hugh Campbell re ceived 6 votes and Mrs. M. J. Aldrich 2. It was decided to postpone the election of the remainder of the officers until Friday morning. The non-partisan W. C. T. TJ. of Cleve land extended an invitation to the National Crusaders to establish their headquarters in Cleveland, and this was accepted. The Pres ident and General Secretary will be located here. Mrs. J. Ellen Foster spoke at the evening session on the objects of the new or ganization. The convention will adjourn to morrow. A TLEA FOR PROHIBITION. The W. C. T. TJ. Issues an Address to the Pan-American Delegates. Chicago, January 23. The National W. C. T. TJ., in an address issued to-day over the signature of President Frances E. Willard, and addressed "To the South American, Central American and Mexican commissioners of the Pan-American Con gress," states that the ladies read with sur prise that, during the round of banqueting to which the nation's guest's were subjected, intoxicating liquors were served upon every occasion and indulged in by the Pan-American delegates. The W. C. T. TJ. expresses regret at this fact, and assures the Southern delegates that no better end can be subserved by them while in this country than to study the vast benefits of a prohibitory law as practiced in eight States of the Union. A BARTENDER'S TROUBLES. If He Lent to Everybody He Wonld Pnt Out 8200 a Day. Brooklyn Eagle.J "Did you ever stop to think of the num ber of men who ask me for money during the day?" inquired a bartender in a prominent saloon of a party of gentlemen who stood drinking at the bar. "Why if I gave np to everybody who 'struck' me I could spend at the very lowest calculation $200 a day. They come in and ask for almost everything from a dime to $10. I haven't got the money and of course can't take it from the drawer. Each man imagines that he is the only one who has asked me that day and becomes indig nant when I refuse him. Most of them are good for the amount, but that is not the point. I simply can't lend it to them. "When I first came here I used to carry $10 or $15 with me all the time and all my friends knew where they could get a dollar when they were in need of it In the first year I lost heavily in this way. I began to thiuk the matter over and now leave my money at home and never carry more than 25 cents with me. So you see I have to re fuse nil would-be borrowers. The people who owe me are not dishonest, but they have lorgotten all about the little financial transaction." ST. LOUIS WOMEN INDIGNANT Over tbo Alleged Trenlment of Female Con victs In tbe Stnte's Prison. 'SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. 2 St. Louis, January 23. The good women of St. Louis are highly indignant to-day over the revelations made by Mrs. Clara Hoffman, State President of the W. C. T. TJ., concerning the horrible treatment of female convicts in the Missouri peniten tiary. Mrs. Hoffman discovered that tbe women were stripped and whipped by brutal male guards, and tbe 56 women, half of whom are blacks, are compelled to sleep tpgether in one small room, without ventilation. The white women have pleaded to be placed in separate rooms from the blacks, but no at tention has been paid to the appeal. Not Always Reasonable. From the Punxsntawney Spirit Man is a reasonable being sometimes. But the great majority of the human family do not reason a bit more than a brindie steer. They are governed by their feelings, their passions and their prejudices, by self interest and by pride. Men usually form their opinions first and try to find a logical basis for t'iem afterward.

He said that while great progress bad been made in other matters, the condition of public roads was no better in Pennsylvania than a century ago, and referred to the alleged fact that farms had increased in value in Ohio and New Jersey 300 and 400 per cent on account of improved highways. SIOBE INTEBESTING PACTS. Prof. Lewis M. Haupt, also of the Uni versity, submitted a paper containing many interesting facts concerning tbe subject under disenssion. George A. Perkins, of Boston, represent ing the League of American "Wheelmen, made an earnest plea for improved roads, stating that 250,000 'cyclers were interested in the spbject. He highly complimented Governor Beaver for what he had done for these people, by his azitation of the question of improved roads, to which sentiment the Governor responded by stating that he conld not be accused of selfishness as he was not in a physical condition to run a bicycle. Colonel Frank Mantor, ot Crawford, in veighed against the State appropriating money for the improvement of public roads. Engineer Boberts, representing the Pitts burg Chamber of Commerce, said: I believe I am representing the prevalent opinion in Allegheny county, in the assertion that the days of mud roads in this Common wealth should be terminated as speedily as pos sible. I think the view has been too long enter tained that tbe country peoDle should look after their own roads, and not ask the people of the cities and boroughs to help improve them. WHAT THEY ABE FOB. What are country roads for, if not to reacb, directly or indirectly, the cities or boroughs? Bo therefore, there must be common interest in volved in the determination of the question we have before us. Bnt we in the cities have wait ed a hundred or more years for the farmers to do their work without our assistance, but we see as the years go round, less disposition shown by the farmers to undertake the work, for the simple reason that their ability to do it is growing less and less. Now it makes not a particle of difference to many farmers how poor they are they still remain independent tbey never beg. They can stay at home in tbe mud all winter, and no matter how man v eggs spoil on their bands. He can afford to wait for the opening of spring, for he cannot be starved out Ho may not. altera bad winter, be able to bny as many goods, bnt he bas not suffered as much as the town peo ple, whose wages, no matter hoy big tbey may be, have all gone for high-priced butter and esrps. or for Western baled hay, oats and grain. In Pennsylvania tbe mass of tbe population is living, so to speak, in a band-to-mouth manner, on account cbienv, of the fluctuating prices of the necessaries of life. CITY DWELIEBS ADVANTAGE. So far as the aggregate wealth of separate classes of the community is concerned, the dwellers in cities have an advantage, because they have the aid of railroads in equalizing values, but while values of products may be to a great extent equalized throughout the coun try by means of railroads, we may still all suffer on a too high basis of equalization. The Western Statas are, however, with their rail roads paralleling each other at frequent inter vals, better for farmers than is Pennsylvania; bat we can never, in our monntainons State, hope to see such a liberal system of railroad distribution as is witnessed In the West and therefore we must more largely depend on im proving our highways, if we expect to redeem the thousands of acres of good land in Penn sylvania which nave never been stirred by a plow, or tbe vastly greater areas which have been farmed jnst enough to keep together the bodies and sonls of our poorer class of tanners. I have traveled through many counties of this State, and my observation is in entire harmony with tbat of many other observers, that as compared with the develomnent ot the mineral and manufacturing interests of the grand old Commonwealth, its agricultural in terests are at a complete standstill. Each year flnd3 us less and less able to supply onr own wants in other words, with increase of popu lation we have less home-raised food supply per capita. It wonld look as if the old State was worn ont and could not supply the wants of its people, but such a view would be very far from the truth. KENTUCKY'S GOOD HOBSES. Mr. Boberts then referred to a survey he made in the blue grass region of Kentucky, several years ago, where he .learned the secret of the comfort of the people residing in the country good roads and good horses. Said Mr. Boberts: Kentucky would never have developed Its fine stock of horses' without these roads. Throughout my travels in that State 1 didn't see one of those horrible machines, a road scraper, and yet last year they sold of surplus horses $2,000,000 worth. Pennsylvania need never hope to compete with the Kentucky farmer in horseflesh to long as we tolerate the roads we have. There is enough alone on horse talk, to warrant a radleal improvement of tbe system under which we labor. We are iu Pennsylvania all in the mud together. Alle gheny, by no means the poorest connty in tbe State, has the mnd grip as well as tbe worst of them. We have, by the report of onr County Engineer, 2,000 miles of bad roads in Allegheny county, and our people have at last been awakened to the necessity of tmprovlng them. Alexander Dempster, of the Engineers' Society of Western Pennsylvania.presented their views on. road laws, as expressed on a pamphlet prepared nearly a year ago. THE APTEBNOON SESSION. At the afternoon session, at which John McDowell, of Washington, presided, a paper preparea Dy(samuei it. .Downing, or west unester, was reaa. in it ne repeated his arguments in favor of macadamizing, as presented by him in The Dispatch of last Monday. B. S. Searle, of Susquehanna, presented the views of his people, who, he said, were heartily in favor of road reform. A letter from F K. Bohn, of Berks county, was submitted, in which he pro tested against iniDosing additional tax burdens on the suffering farmers, and sug gested that as. the cities were clamoring for better thoroughfares, they might with propriety pay the costs incident to their improvement. John S. Carter, of Chester county, in a paper based on road statistics of a township, strongly opposed a State appropriation for the improvement of roads, because it would be democratic. Bemarks were made by Prof. Williams, Mr. McWilliams and J. T. Ailman, of Juniata county; Mahlon Brosius and ex Representative Brosius, Prof. Hamilton, of the State College; W. H. Evans, of Chester, and by Cyrus Gordon, of Clearfield, a mem ber of the Boad Commission, who intimated that he had not derived much practical in formation from the flow of oratory which hud prevailed all to-day. DEEPEB IN THE MUD. Senator Mylon, another member, re marked in a quiet conversation about the s.ime time, tbat the commission "was deeper in the mud" than before the great talk on roads began. At the night session Eastburn Beeder, of Bucks, read a paper on "Cross Wavs and Ditches," and H. W. Kratz on the s'ubject of "Good Boads a Mutual Advantage to Town and Country." Discussion was then resumed and continued until adjournment. Auditor General McCamant say? if the State appropriates money toward the im provement of country roads, taxation will have to be increased, as the disbursements for ordinary expenses exceeded the receipts by about 66.000. That the deficit was not over $600,000 was because the amount received from collateral inheritance tax was twice as large as customary, owing to the contributions by the estates of Isaiah Will iamson, of Philadelphia, and Millionaire Dubois, of Clearfield. SOME SUGGESTIONS, The State Boad Commission having re quested the Board of Agriculture to give it some suggestions which it might desire to have incorporated in new laws, this after noon the board made the following: First Repeal of the privilege of working out road taxes. Second That supervisors employ labor where best value can be obtained, preference being given to home labor. Third That all commodities of equal value shall he taxed at the same rate as real estate. Fonrth That some efficient head in each county be appointed to prepare plans and supervise the work of road building. Porlnsnl la Decomlng Quiet. Lisbon, January 23.

The Comte de Paris Will Mobs Bis Fntare Home la America European Com ment on the Samoan Treaty Other Cnble News. CBT Drm.AF'8 CABLE COMFAjrr.l Pabis, January 23. The true cause of the departure of the Comte de Paris for America is his indignation at Queen Vic toria's permitting the domineering treatment by England of his son-in-law, the King of Portugal. The Count sent a bitter letter of remonstrance to the Queen, and Her Maj esty, in conseqnence, relnses the further hospitality of English soil to the Count, who will choose America as his future home. His eldest son, the Due d'Orleans, will shortly accept an important command in the Bussian army, a step which his father has hitherto refused to sanction for fear of giving offense to England. THAT SAJIOAN TREATY. Lending English Ketvspnpers Resurd the Document With Fnvor. LONDON, January 24. The Times says: "The Samoan treaty bean a handsome testimony to Prince Bis marck's reasonableness. That so com plete an equilibrium should be established is much more than we could have expected from him. That he quietly consented to the prohibition of arms and alcohol, and to the land clauses is probably dne to British influence. Their insertion in such a treaty is a remarkable event in the history of the relations of civilized with semi-civilized races. ' The Standard gives the treaty doubtful approval. It says: "While it is good theoret ically, it is likely that difficulties will arise. In any case provision is made for revision, and the friendly terms npon which the sig natories stand promise well for an honest working contract," CANNOT BE EXPELLED. The Reichstag Rejects That Clause of tbe Socialist BUI. Beblin, January 23. The Belchstag de feated the Socialist bill to-day. Herr Bnhl said that the National Liberals were willing to vote for a permanent measure, but they must oppose the expulsion clause. Tbe Honse ultimately rejected the expulsion clause, and decided to rdake the measure permanent by a vote of 166 to 111. In the vote upon ihe expulsion clause of the Socialist bill, the Conservatives voted against the motion to omit tbat clause, but explained tbat they would acquiesce in omission if the Government did. The third reading of the bill is fixed for Saturday next. Should the Government then insist npon the expulsion clause it is expected that the Beichstag will reject the bill, as tbe coalition against it is apparently too resolute to be overcome. GEEAT STORJI IN ENGLAND. The Ben Wall Broken nnd Much. Property Destroyed by Water. London, January 23. There has been a great storm of wind and rain in Southern England, and enormously high tides as a consequence. The Severn has overflowed its banks Gloucester "Vale is submerged. There is a great loss of property. The Lymington, Llanley, Ports mouth and South Wales Bailways are tem porarily stopped. The damage due to the storm is found to be enormous as it is reported in detail. A quarter of a mile of sea wall between New Haven and Seafork.has collapsed. NOT HOSTILE TO ENGLAND. The Amerlena Minister at Lisbon Is Mind ing His Own Business. London, January 23. The Times' Lis bon correspondent protests against the in terpretation of hostility to England on the part of the American Minister placed npon tbe fact of his presence at the meeting of the Geographical Society, at which an anti English demonstrai'n was made. The Standard's Lisbon correspondent says: "It is rumored that the United States Congress will be asked to subsidize a line or steamers to this country. This would ruin Portuguese agriculture, already half de stroyed by imports of American wheat" Forced to Cancel the Invitations. Beblin, January 23.

To a person who had lived a hundred years ago, and been used to only the old fashioned stage-coach travelling, the rate at which we speed through tbe country at the presentday would frighten them out of their wits. We go too fast for health, comfort, or S3f ety in more ways than one. We drive along at top-speed, neglecting full hours of sleep, proper exercise, proper time to eat or digest our food, propertime for recreation; and the consequence is wo are becoming a nervous, excitable, and overwrought people. Paralysis, neural gia, headache, sciatica, softening of the brain, insanity are becoming alarmingly I common. There is but one remedy known to tbe medical profession at tbe present day that can in any way be called a spe cific for ihi? class of diseases and for counteracting the evil effects of the too rapid life which we are leading. This, as we presume our readers know, is Rogers' Koyal Nervine, which, while potent, is harmless, and while in reality a pure ner vine, acts as a wholesome and direct tonic to the digestive organs and general sys tem, and to the brain and nerves.

Frequently, this causes inflammation and the need of an anodyne. No other expectorant or anodyne is equal to Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. It assists Nature in ejecting tho mucu3, allays irritation, induces repose, and is the most popular of all cough cores. "Of the many preparations before the public for the cure of colds, coughs, bronchitis, and kindred diseases, there is none, within the range of my experi ence, so reliable as Ayer's Cherry Pec toral. For years I was subject to colds, followed by terrible coughs. About four yeara ago, when so afflicted, I was ad vised to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral and to lay all other remedies aside. I did so, and within a week was well of my cold and cough. Since then I have always kept this preparation in the honse, and feel comparatively secure." Mrs. L. L. Brown, Denmark, Miss. "A few years ago I took a severe cold which affected my lungs. I had a ter rible congb, and passed night after night without sleep. The doctors gave me up. I tried Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and afforded the rest necessary for the recovery of my strength.

The catarrhal secretion that dropped from bis head into bis throat was so tenacious and bard to raise tbat in the morning it would often gag him and canse him to feel sick at his stomach. His hearing became dull, he took cold very easily, bad no appetlto in tbe morning, and aa his food did not digost properly, gas formed in his stomach, cansing pain. He often felt dizzy and lost flesh. He tried various treatments, but without success. He also used local treat ments, but his disease gradually grew worse.
