EEE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, TUESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1890.-
BIED IN THE HARNESS.
Bev. Joseph Strnb, Proyincial of the
Society of the Holy Ghost.
A LIFE OP WORK AKD SUCCESS.
A friend of Marshal UcMahon, Soldier of
the Cross in Africa.
HIS GREAT WOEK IN TWO CONTINENTS
Yesterday at 1:45 p. M. the Very Kev.
Joseph Strnb, Provincial of the Society of
the Holy Ghost in America, died at the
Holy Ghost College, on Bluff street, after
an illness of eight days. Born November
1, 1833, in the diocese ot Strasburg, Alsace,
he pursued his studies in the seminary of
the same diocese with marked success.
Having finished his philosdfly, he lelt the
seminary with 13 other Levites, and in their
company, entered the scholasticate of the
Society of the Holy Ghost, about the year
1856.
As a Scholastic his health failed, and he
asked as a favor to be sent out with a band
of missionaries to the African mission.
Having: despaired of recovering from his
illness he sought, as a last consolation, the
privilege ot dying in the land of the
heathen. There, however, contrary to his
expectations, he recovered his health and
labored assiduously for sir years, from 1857
to 1863, in the new and since flourishing and
important mission ot Dakar, on the western
coast of the Dark Continent. It was there
that he was ordained priest on Holy Satur
day, 1858, by the Vicar Apostolic of Sene
gambia, and he celebrated his first mass on
the Easter Sunday following. He made his
religions profession and he pronounced his
first vows in September, 1860. v
ATTACKED Br FEVEK.
As Procurator of the Mission and Vicar
General of jtf gr. Kobes, the Vicar Apos
tolic, his zeal and energy were untiring,
until at last he succumbed to a violent at
tack of yellow fever This obliged him to
return to France in 1863, after having been
tor the two preceding years Vice Superior
of the community of Dakar. 'When he had
recruited his health he received from the
Superior General of the society the import
ant post of Superior in the house at Marien
thai, archdiocese of Cologne, in Germany.
Alter a little while he was transferred to
the pilgrimage at Marienstadt, where for
some years he directed a college, orphanage
and other various works of that cele
brated monastery. Dnring the Franco
Prussian war Father Strub was chosen
Chaplain-general of the French prisoners at
Mayence. He was the intimate friend and
confidant of Marshal McMahon, and was
intrusted with the distribution ot the char
ities contributed for the relief of the French
prisoners. For services rendered to his
countrymen during that trying period he
was decorated by the Marshal President
with the large cross of the Legion of Honor.
Alter his return to Marienstadt he was ap
pointed Provincial of the German Province
of the Holy Ghost, and filled that office with
rare ability until the expulsion of the re
ligious orders from Germany in 1873 obliged
the Fathers of the Holy Ghost to dissolve
their communities in that country.
CAWE HEBE IX 1874.
In January. 1874, he came to the United
States where he has labored ever since. For
years he administered the parish of St.
Mary's at Sharpiburg. Under his guidance
the Fathers of the Holv Ghost have for these
many years worked well and successfully in
many different parts of the United States for
the glory of God and the salvation of souls.
The Catnolic College, inaugurated in 1878
on "Wylie avenue, transferred in 1884 to
Bluff street, has since been successfully con
ducted under the auspices of the deceased.
Father Strnb was a man of fine physiqne
and distinguished personal appearance, and
appeared to have a constitution sufficient to
have carried him well up to the century
mark, hut his work in a torrid clime was
doubtless a heavy draft on vitality.'
EXCLUDED REPORTERS.
Lively Meeting of the Allegheny Freiby
tery Proportion of Dr. Hays to Bnild it
New Church Discussed Referred to a
Committee to Consider.
The Allegheny Presbytery met yesterday
afternoon at the First Church, on Arch
street It was a special meeting to consider
the petition for the organization of a new
church and hearing the report of thecom
mittee on the matter, as well as to take ac
tion on the report of the committee in rela
tion to the trouble between the Bev. I. N".
Hays and part of his congregation of the
Central Church.
Kev. H. C. Ferguson, of Emsworth, was
made moderator of the meeting and Bev. J.
L. Milligan acted as secretary. There were
35 members of the presbytery present,
together with some 20 members of Dr. Hays'
congregation, who were interested in the
proceedings.
The first business done when the meeting
was opened was to pass a resolution to ex
clude reporters. The meeting was therefore
held with closed doors, hut the secretary
was instructed to give the proceedings pub
licity. The matter of the petition of 98 mem
bers of the Central church for permis
sion to organize a new church and locate it
on Buena Vista street, was first taken up.
The petition was presented by Dr. Camp
bell who spoke strongly in favor ot it, as
did also Dr. Beatty, H. C. Wilson, J. J.
Graham, and others. Bev. D. S. Kennedy,
of the First Church, was strongly opposed
to it, alleging that there were enough
churches in the vicinity to accommodate
the people. The locality suggested was in
too close proximity to many others of the
same denomination. J. F. Gibson opposed
it from a financial point of view. The 98
signers to the petition could not pay for the
ground and build a church for much less
than $40,000, and the burden wonld be upon
the presbytery. Elder J. S. Slagle also
spoke against it, and used the argument
that the field was pretty well filled. Mr. J.
J. Graham was the warmest adherent of the
new church, and argued that as nearly 100
uatl.lrnftTi-n rtiict:... ...n.1.. I. A ..:.: 1
for the right to worship in their own church,
. it should not be denied them. Eev. John
A. iox talked on both sides of the question,
and finally offered the following resolution:
Resolved. That the pe.ition be referred to a
committee to inquire more carefully into its
merits, to ascertain the probability of financial
support for an) new enterprise, the cost of a
new church building, and all other like mat
ters, and specially to consult with the Bethel
Church to see if by a possible fusion with that
church the petitioners can have their wishes
met in some better way than by organizing a
new church.
The resolution was seconded by Bev.Buth
erford, who had advocated a postponement
of the matter. Some of the congregation
wanted the matter settled definitely at once,
and so voted no when the resolution was put
but it carried by a large majority.
The Moderator was given power to appoint
the committee, and he named Bev. F. H.
Bobinson, D. D.; Bev. M. Bntherford, Eev.
John Fox and Elders John S. Slagle and
Wm. Fisher. The committee was instructed
to call a meeting when their report was
ready.
The matter of the protest against the re
duction of the salary of Dr. Hays was then
taken up. Eev. Dr. Bobinson, as Chairman
of the Committee on Conference, with the
congregation handed in his report. The
charge bad been made that the action of the
elders was irregular. The report in relation
to that was as follows:
Tour committee after bearing these protesta
tions, and a frank and lengthy conference with
these brethren feel constrained to accept their
declaration, and to report that in their judg
ment the trustees and elders ot the Central
Church and congregation sbonld be relieved
from all Imputations of having intentionally
acted in an illegal or unchristian manner in
dealing with their late pastor. It Is due to
them as Christian men of good repute to give
to them this exoneration.
The report was received and adopted,
after which the meeting adjourned.
IN SELECT COUNCIL.
The Usual Number of Street Ordinance!
Presented A Warm Tnlk Over a Switch
for Rea & Co. Crnlc Street People Don't
Want a New Boardwalk
In Select Council yesterday, petitions
and ordinances for grading, curbing, etc.,
were presented and referred to the proper
committees. A resolution requesting the
Chief of the Department of Public Works
to investigate the assessments made for the
grading, paving and curbing of Mabon
street, Thirteenth ward, was read, and if he
finds the assessments excessive, requesting
hini to correct them and report to Council.
Considerable of the time of Select Council
was consumed by the old fight between Bea
& Co., and Loyd, Sons & Co., over the
former's application for a switch track on
Greenough street. Loyd, Sons & Co. want
to use the track since Greenough street is
the only opening from their works while
Bea & Co. object decidedly. A motion
was finally passed postponing action on the
ordinance indefinitely.
The report of the Board of Awards on the
letting of the contract for a boardwalk on
Craig street was accompanied by a commu
nication, signed by 22 property holders, who
said thev were satisfied with the present
boardwalk. The communication was re
ceived and filed, and the report of the Board
of Awards was approved.
Acommnnication was received from the
Mayor relative to the report of the Board of
Assessors that $10,000 would be needed in
the next appropriation for refunding taxes
assessed and paid under the clause of the
charter ordinance fixing the assessment on
the "price of the last recorded sale." The
matter was referred to the Finance Commit
tee, The following ordinances were passed
finally:
Authorizing the Chief of the Dcnartmont of
Public Works to determine the material to be
used in sidewalks and curbing, and the manner
of constructing the same; locating Gladstone

of the wards, a nnmber of ordinances for

nue was reconsidered and the ordinance was
indefinitely postponed.
The Chair read the report of the Depart
ment of Public Works for December. The
expenditures during the month were $53,
994 76, leaving a balance of $191,520 84 in
the appropriation. There are now 336 em

A QUIET CAUCUS.
Popnlar Mill Worker. Favor H. Kirk Por
ter for Mnjor.
The Mayoralty battle may be a lively
one after all. On Saturday evening last a
group of brainy workers in the Southside
mills discussed the situation, and one of
them suggested that it might be well to in
ject lite into the campaign by the introduc
tion of an independent candidate. The de
bate grew interesting when another men
tioned the name of H. Kirk Porter, the
locomotive manufacturer, as an available
candidate.
Mr. Porter's name was greeted with great
favor, and one who was present says it was
then and there decided to urge him to ac
cept. It is not knonn whether he has yet
been consulted on the subject or will con
sent to run independently. Mr. Porter is
very popular with the mill men on account
of his profit-sharing ideas, and also stands
high in the business community.

THE CAES TOO SHOKT.
The Predicament in Which the
Squirrel Hill Eoad is Placed.
K0T WIDE ENODGH FOR THE GAUGE
tfo Meeting of the Pittsburg Traction
jiff""" About Reducing Fares.
SOME EUM0KS OP A STOCK MOVEMENT
The Pittsburg and Squirrel Hill Electric
Bailway Company is confronted with a
serious problem in regard to its cars.
Although there has been very little done so
far in the way of track laying, the company
received its cars over a month ago. It is
now found that the cars are considerably
shorter than the gauge of track for which
they were intended, and will have to be re
constructed. This work will probably fall
on the company who built the cars.
The gauge of the cars is i feet 8 inches.
The standard gauge of street railways in
Pittsburg and Allegheny is 5 feet 2 inches.
Tne latter is required by Councils, and every
road in the two cities has adopted the gauge.
The company has seven cars now stored in
the power house of the Pittsburg Traction
Company at Oakland. It is probable that
an attempt will be made to change the
trucks under the cars so as to enable the
wheels to fit the standard track. The wheels
now fit close.' to the sills of the car, and if
they are moved very far they will be ontside
the sides of the car. The mistake was made
by the builders the Troy Street Car Com
pany, of Troy, N. Y.
FINISHING THE GRADING.
The last work on the grading of the road
will be completed this week. The company
now has a large gang of men at work on
Murray avenue, and as soon as they are
through the rails will be laid on that
thoronghfare. The engineers of the com
pany experienced considerable difficulty on
account of the streets over which the road
passed not being graded. They had to es
tablish their own grade, and then make it
in accordance with the grade recorded by
the City Engineer. The company will do
their own paving only on the streets not yet
graded. A considerable portion of the line
passes through the property owned by the
company. .Nothing has yet been done about
the injunction restraining the company from
building their line through the Scbenley
park. The cars will skirt the outside of the
park on the southwestern extremity.
Nothing has yet been done about the
traffic arrangement between the company
and the Pittsburg Traction Company. The
latter, it is said, are willing to issue transfer
tickets to people along the Sqnirrel Hill
line. This would make the fare 5 cents
from the city to Squirrel Hill, the transier
being made at Boquet street one square
beyond the Oakland power house. Whether
this will ultimately be done or not is not
yet known, but it is the present intention.
NO MEETING HELD.
The meeting of the stockholders and
Board of Directors of the Pittsburg Trac
tion Company, which was to have been held
yesterday, did not take place, owing to the
non-arrival in tim. of Messrs. P. A. B.
Widener and W. L. Elkins, the principal
owners, in Philadelphia. They will arrive
in the city this evening, and the meeting
will be held to-morrow. It was generally
thought by persons in a position to know,
that no change in the present f.ire would be
made. Two gentlemen coming in on a Fifth
avenue car yesterday said the canse of the
reduction on the Penn avenue line was due
to a stock movement. When this was sug
gested to an officer of the Pittsburg com
pany he said their road could stand any
scheme of this kind. He said they built
their road to keep it, and wonld not be
"flimmed" out of it. The two gentlemen
introduced above, said that the idea seemed
to be to deprecate the stock of the Pittsburg
company bv withdrawing patronage trom
the road. This was denied by the Citizens'
line people, who said the reduction was
made to accommodate the public.
THAT HEW CHILD LANGUAGE
Found to be Neither New Nor Pecnllnr The
Lingo of a Tonsoe-Tled Infant The
Knofmnnn Child a Cnie of Seml-Paruly-sis
and Protracted Infancy.
Inasmuch as the story which has gone
forth that a certain Henry Kaufmann, of
Bulger, was the father of a child speaking
a language peculiar to itself has created
considerable interest in this vicinity, a
Dispatch representative investigated the
report yesterday, and found, as is very often
the case, some truth and considerable errror
mixed together.
A near relative is authority for the state
ment that the child in question is merelv
afflicted with a sort of semi-paralysis which
up to the present time prevents it from
making itself entirely intelligible to those
unacqnainted with it. Three younger chi 1
dren nave the same trouble, although not
in such a degree as the subject referred to.
Doctors have examined them, and are of the
opinion the children may in time be able to
learn either English or German as the case
may be, but that they never will be able to
speak plainly unless'the tongues of the sev
eral children can be made to moye freely.
The truth of this is apparent from the
uniqne sounds or equivalents for perfect
words which little Minnie, the child that is
most affected, uses.
The sound "blah-blah," by which she
designates a cow, and "ouh-ouh-ouh" a
rooster, is not any more peculiar than that
of the average child learning to talk.
"Tulo," the sound used to designate a plate,
can easily be reconciled with the word
"teller," German lor plate, as can also
"gala" for "gabbel," fork, in the same ver
nacular. "Lili," which she uses for small or
little, is evidently the same as most English
children use when learning to talk. The
whole trouble seems to lie in the inability
of the child to pronounce some of the harder
sounds of the alphabet.
Begarding the mixture of English and
German words this is explained from the
fact that the father is German and the
mother English. Beside this, it Is said the
child displays signs of protracted infancy,
which is not uncommon in some children.
Her Sorrows Ended.
About a dozen years ago the people of this
city were astounded over the sensational
features of a divorce case in which Horace
Wadham Nichol, a rather celebrated musical
composer and organist at St. Paul's Cathe
dral, and subsequently at the Third Presby
terian Church, figured. After the sensation
both went East. News has been received of
the lady's death. Her name before she
married'Nichol was Cissidv.
