i1T-Tif-T1 " mMma r$wf rs -r ; 'jjsrPfjr' "WOPS" tTZf ; THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, SATURDAY, iMARCH 8, 1890. 10 aAjjiajlsggxjiijijjgaa IrT cey's early trainini. old associations and family ties compelled him invariably to compare Met with his sister and his mother always to the disadvantage of pretty Met Larned. Jack was swayed by honesty of purpose, and he resolved never to "make love' to Met; being Jack Delanccy, he kept his resolution. But, nevertheless. Jack found H very pleasant on Sunday afternoons to ride over to the Ijarneds cottage, fire miles away, and indulge in a chat with Metta. If he desired excuse, he found it in the paper which came to him with his mail every Saturday, and which Metta liked to read. JacC discov ered a keener satisfaction in taking tea sapper, they call it in "Wyoming with Metta than he had ever experienced in sip ping souchong from dainty china cups in London drawing rooms. Sletta's suppers were substantial affairs delicious beelsteaks and the lightest ot light hot bread, with but ter that the dairy maids at Delancey Park had never surpassed. Such meals were pe culiarly appreciated by Jack after a long week of tough meat, indifferent potatoes and hardtack! And Jack reciprocated Metta's hospitality whenever he journeved to Chey enne as he frequently did by bringing the girl a new novel or 'something pretty.' So they became .good comrades, and both en joyed amazingly the long quiet Sundav af ternoons. But" their regard and esteem for each other stopped just short of love; for, alter three vears, Metta Larned's affection for the Englishman was no deeper than was Jack Delancey's liking for the girl. TTnfnrtnnatelv. on the plains, as well as in 9 other nrimitive'and sparsely settled commu- f cities, actions and words lrequently cause more weight than they would do in large " social centers. Therefore, Calvin Iiarned ) t iras not alone in surmising that Jack De- ' lancey intended, ultimately, to make Metta - his wife. All 'the boys' looked upon such a climax as a foregone conclusion, and even Spencer Knight shared in the general opinion. Indeed, this belief alone 1 prevented Knight himself from enter . fng the race for Met Larned; for the foreman, who had never ex changed more than 20 sentences with Metta, 4 loved the girl with an affection which never paused to make psychological estimate or " social comparisons a love that was only arpassed by his deep and undying loyalty to Dclancev, for whose sake he kept his ' secret so well that not a living soul ever ' once dreamed of it Cal Larned's derogatory remarks at the 'round-up' anent Jack Delancey were not nearly so severe as his mental comments upon the same live subject In his own mind he thought that the Englishman had been 'foolin' around' Metta quite long enough. One Sabbath, when Spencer Knight and most of 'the boys' had gone over to Chey- j - enne with a couple of hundred young steers to ship by the railroad to Chicago, Delan cey, as was his .custom on Sunday mornings ' in summer, brought his hammock outside the long, low sh.Vnty, swung it on the shady side of the building, lit his pipe, and . stretched himseJ f out to enjoy the three- years-old Jllustraed London Xews. 'Mornin', Jack.!' exclaimed a voice the only voice whose .accents usually disgusted Delancey. 'Good morning, replied Jack, lazily looking up. He .noticed his visitor was afoot, and added: lrou didn't walk over, Larn'ea?' 2ot much, I didln t! I seen your barn door open as I come up, an found a empty stall; so I hitched my pony an gev him a feed o your oats 'spote thet's all right?' 'Oh, certainly; you are very welcome,' said Jack, as vexed as a man could well be with Larned's take-it-for-granted style, but will in? to tolerate the lellow for his daughter's sake. "Purty dry an dusty. Jack. Can't yer pass the bottle, me son? A smell o rye or Bourbon, or tven a couple o' fingers of gin, wouldn't go bad. 'I don't like my men to use liquor, so do not use it myself, and have none on the place. You will find good spring water at the well, yonder, and plenty of milk in the cellar. That's the best I can do for you, Larned. Help vourself. But neither milk nor water possessed any chaims for Cal Larned. He threw himself lull length upon the rough bench which ran along the shanty, and filled his mouth with fine-cut tobacco which he chewed very care fullyfor the space of five minutes. He then succeeded in drowning a grasshopper some 17 leet away from him by a dexterous dis charge of black juice, and proceeded di rectly to the matter which just then ac counted for his presence at the Delancey Ranch. 'Comin' over to our place to-day, Jack?' Delanccv, in despair, threw down his pa per and replied: 'Yes, I think so.' 'Well now, Jack, how long is it sence you planted yourself down here?' 'About four years." 'So? How long was you here when I gev yer a knock down to my gal?' 'Almost a year.' 'So? 'Well, now, I ain't much of a scholar, so ef my calkerlations are wrong, kindly ke-rect me. One year from four years leaves three years, jsow, on yer own showin , vou'vebeen sparkin' Met for three years. 5fow, Jack, when are yer goin to marry my gal?' Jack sat up in his hammock and dangled one leg on the ground. Slowly he repeated Larned's words: 'When am I going to marry your girl? You mean, when shall I marry Metta? You are not indulging in a con foundedly poor joke, I hope, Larned?' 'Do I look as ef I wur a sky-larkin', or as et I meant hizness? Ko, Jack Delancey, I'm ask in' you a squar' quesching, an' ef you're the man they say vou are, you'll gev me a straight answer. How is it?' 'My good fellow, I have never made love to your daughter for the very reason thai I have never dreamt of marrying her. I have every respect for Met, and esteem her very much; but I have been particularly careful to give her no false impressions. Besides, I believe Metta and I understand each other unite well. Metta' 'You speak foryerself, Delancey. Don't I know all about her? Ain't I seen her change in the last three years until she don't think of nobody nor nuthin' but you ? Can't I see low she's a-growin' sick an' weary of waitin for yon to ax her?' Jack put his other leg out of the ham mock and with two of his big strides stood over his would-be father-in-law. 'Tell me one thing,' he said, in a tone of voice which indicated that it would not he well for his listener to tamper with him. 'Tell me the truth, man, of your own child. Does Met care all that about me, and does she really believe that that I love her ? 'She does. 'So help you God?' 'See hereC Delancey, said Larned, clum sily, rising to his feet; 'what do you take me for? What do you suppose I care about you? You .never used me half-way decent, dnyhow. You an" yer keep-yer-distance, yord-dook style! I ain't in love with you, Snr fit vfr helnnrinpR- T know T nin't. $ leneral favorite hereabouts. But Met's kJS ' ioy gal, an I'm tier dad, an, curse me, De lancey, ef I'm a-gom to stand by an' see her heart broke an' the best years of her young life fooled away by younor yit no other gay rooster!' 'That will do,' f 3id Jack quietly. I care nothing or your blusteringthreats. As you say, there is" no love lost between you and me. But there is that wbich I dislike even more than Mr. Larned, and you will never find me guilty of any dishonorable conduct Yes, I will ride over this afternoon.' Cal Lamed bad acted his part well, and knew it He was fully aware that his point was practically carried; for having succeeded in influencing a man like Jack De lancy, he knew it would be an easy matter to mold Metta to his will; so he indulged in considerable chuckling as hi. shuffled off to mount his pony and ride home. A few days liter, Spencer Knight re turned. In the evening, he and Delancey strolled down to the creek to smoke an after-supper pipe. 'Spence, said Jack, 'I am going to marry Metta Larned: 'Yes,' responded the other; 'weall thought it would come to tbat I hope you will both be very happy, Delancey.' Curiously enough, each of the men, for the first time in the course of their ac quaintance, remarked a strange glumness in me other, aney not only remarked it. bat both remembered it very vividly. There I was no gladness about Delancey's announce ment, and Knight's congratulatory reply had a counterfeit ring about it 'Next Mondav,' said Jack after a pause, 'I shall start forhome to make the folks oyer there a visit before settling down for life. You will stay and take care of things for me while I am gone, won't you, Spence? I shall not be away more than a couple of months, and during that time I should like to have the carpenters over from Cheyenne and run up a comfortable cottage over yon der by the poplars. Consult Metta as much as possible.' . Delancey spoke so mechanically that Knight knew, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that somethiug was wrong. But he made no inquiries. 'All right, Delancey; and when you re turn I shail ask for leave of absence for a similar purpose. Like yourself, I am an Englishman. There was a little unpleasant ness in our family which induced me to lo cate in the West some 12 years ago. The other day I saw an old friend of mine, who was passing through Cheyenne. "We talked matters over, and I think past differences can now be adjusted. However, I will not pester you with my affairs to-night Somehow or other, Jack Delancey was absent from his ranch eight months instead of two; so that the following summer had commenced by the time he returned to his "Western quarters. 'We will leave business until to-morrow, Spence,' said Jack, as he and his First Lieutenant sauntered toward the creek. 'Let us talk of other matters to-night' As a matter of fact, they said nothing at all for almost half an hour. Then Delancey snoke: 'How is Metta? I have heard noth ing from her lor two months. I told her not to write, as I was so uncertain about starting. How is she?' 'Metta is well, very well.' Silence again, broken this time by Knight: 'Delancey?' Both men paused in their walk, and Jack puffed violently at his pipe. 'You picked me up a stranger, and treated me like the 'white man' that you are. You had faith in my manhood, and you have trusted me implicitly. Have I justified your confidence?' "Yon have, Spence a thousand times over, bor. Here is my hand on it' 'Thanks, Delancey. Now trust me a little more, and believe that I would not pry into your private affairs for the mere sake of be ing meddlesome, or to wound you. May I go ahead?' 'Surely. Let us sit on this boulder." 'Delancey, you jnst asked about Metta. You do not love that girl. I knew it the night that we were last on this spot, when vou told me of your engagement to her. You will never be really happy with Metta for your wife.' 'Stop,' said Jack, with a faint smile. 'This question is undebatable. I have asked Metta to marry me, and it is utterly impos sible to disenss the matter.' 'But,' persisted Knight you love with all your heart and soul another woman. You cannot deny that yon do not desire to deny it You love, as you can never hope to love Metta, my sister Florence.' 'Nonsense, Spence! Lady Florence Jvmghton your sister? 'The very same. You see, my dear fel low, I too "am an "honorable." It was a rather shabby trick on your part, Delancey, to go over there and lose your heart to my sister, while you kept me all these months waiting to become reconciled to my father. But, to return to our subject You not only fell desperately in love with lo, but you have stolen the poor girl's heart away Irom her.' Indeed, Spence, I have been strictly hon orable in this matter. While at home I made no secret of my engagement, and studiously avoided anything like a flirta tion with Lady Florence. We were thrown much together, and I confess Well, that makes no difference; I am here to keep my word with Metta.' I admit, Delancey,' said Knighton,rather comically, 'that in the presence of my sister vou tried your best to behave like a sphynx; hut I have it on the authority of mv mar ried sister your attempt was a signal fail ure; while, as for Florence, she has made a clean confession to her sister. Now, are you going to nuke Flo miserable as well as yoursel.?" 'I am grieved to learn,' muttered Jack, that I have unintentionally caused your sis ter temporary distress. But as for myself I think a fellow need not feel particularly miserable in living np to his word. No; I shall marry Metta Larned." 'Wait a while,' continued Knighton, lay ing his hand upon his friend's shoulder. 'Metta Larned does not love you! What do you say to that?" Possibly so. But how do you know that to be the case." 'Because why er (you haven't a pistol about you, Delancey?; Well, the fact is that Met loves me, and I love her; and if you do not seriously object, we should both of us like to release you from your engage ment! Yes, he went on, 'I suppose you ought to demand an explanation and satisiac tion from me for robbing you of your affi anced bride. But I did not begin the rob bery until I was tolerably sure that I shouldn't be striking you very bard. As I said, I surmised a good deal when you went away, and I learned much more betore you started for home. A month ago Cal Larned died gored by a young bull and be fore his death, he confessed to me that he had terrorized Met and played a "bluff game" with you. You are not very angry, are you, Delancey?' Jack certainly did not loot very angry, and he grasped his friend's hand and shook it with remarkable vigor. The Hon. Spencer Knighton is still known as Spence Knight on the Delancey ranch, of which he is sole proprietor; but Jack De lancey, of Wyoming, is no more, his friends having rechristened that gentleman with his old name when he settled down to the pleas ant life of an English country Squire. A SEWEE PIPE MAN Ham Somrlhloc to Say About the New Pitttbars find Western Branch Road, D. E Hill, of Akron, tho oldest sewer pipe manufacturer in the country, was at the Ander son last night During trie evening Mr. Hill had quite a lengthy interview with William Semple, Jr., of Allegheny, in reference to the Pittsburg, Akron and Western Railroad, in which the first named gentleman is interested in eTery way except financially. During a con versation with a Dispatch representative Mr. Hill said: "Akron is a town which curiously enough never has what may lie called a boom,' nor has it ever experienced dnll times. Whether the introduction of the new line, which has a new feature to us in its run nine from East to West instead of U orth and South, as is the case with every other road touching Akron, may change these conditions or not I am unable to say at present. Indeed there is really so little known of the road in our town that we have doubts at times if it has anv existence so far bejond seeding engineers to survey tho route. It is said that the road is already underway, however. Little is known our way of the pro posed Baltimore and Ohio-Pittsburg and West ern combine, the purchase of the Valley route which parses through our town addinga feature to the deal that makes it more difficult to answer than ever."

Local Minds Dissecting nnd Dlscnislnc Plans to Get Around tho Gross-iUcCon-nell Will Trouble Building Associations Interested A Mutter of Much Moment. The decision of the Supreme Court that Mrs. Matilda Gross McConnell cannot sell her property, even if she were given it in fee simple, has set a great many people to think ing, and some of them have decided that something must be done to get around that decision. A good many questions present them selves. One of them is an inquiry as to whether Mrs. Gross had any other heirs that would have inherited by law had not the will besu made in favor of Mrs. McConnell, and how they will be affected in case of the possi bility of Mrs. McConnell's children dylnff be fore her and she nnable to dispose of the prop erty ? The supposition of a failure of heirs is, of course, far fetched, but such case is among the possibilities. It is thought there will be devised some method of curing the defect, but meantime some stockholders in building and loan associa tions are in a cold sweat People have boueht lots and can get the purchase money back, but they have also built houses on those lots and have been furnished the money by building and loan societies, and tho query is bow tbeso associations are going to get their money back. Take it all in all there are a goodly number ot people who wish they had never beard of tbat decision, and, though admitting it to be good law, they point to the possibility of its eating a rich woman's substance up and eventually making her poor. As it is. the property will not pay as alarm, and it cannot even be con verted Into a park, and 50 acres that ought to be built up are likely to lie a howling waste for an indefinite time. Some have suggested that Mrs. McConnell be made a femme sole trader, but tbey are not satisfied that this would afford any substantial relief. H01IE TALENT FOE THE PLiCE; An Alleghenian In View for the First Car nesle Librarian. Common Council, of Allegheny, will meet on next Tuesday evening and take action upon the two ordinances governing the Carnegie Free Library, and select Council will meet in special session tbe next evening to consider the same ordinances. A quiet movement is on foot on the Northside to Induce Mr. William N. How ard to allow the use of his name as a candidate for the office of Librarian. Although In no ; enso a politician, Mr. Howard has given a qualified consent to the importunities of his friends and will be a candidate. Mr. Howard is a graduate of Washington and Jefferson College, and was for several vears President of tho Mercantile Library of Pittsburg. He bas had a fine business training as a member of the firm of Howard, Childs it Co., and is between 45 and 50 years of age. Ho has been an omnivorous reader, and being pos sessed of ample means bas had both leisure and money to devote to acquiring the widest familiarity with all branches of literature. Even if he became the librarian, the salary proposed by ordinance would have very little weight with him. as he would make it a labor of love. It is argued that Allegheny City should show by the choice of one of her citizens that there was no necessity of importing talent to meet the requirements of such a position. HOT A JUST CRITICISM. Mr. Carnegie Duly nnd Officially Notified by Councils of tho Firt Mediae of the LI. brnry Commission LUIzen Commission' crs Also Asked to Attend A Clcnr State ment. A gentleman who is a member ol the Car negie Free Library Commission, the other day informed a reporter for The Dispatch that he believed Mr. Carnegie had been dis courteously treated in not being officially notified ot the first meeting of the commis sion. He claimed that Mr. Carnegie was surprised, and said the proper way would have been to forward the ordinance and await bis pleasure before holding a meeting. The criticism of the gentleman considerably surprised other members of the commission, and yesterday a reporter sought John M. Lambie, Esq , to ascertain the facts in the matter. Mr. Lambie said he could not un derstand how a member of the commission should make such statements as set forth in the interview. Continuing, he said: Tbe gentleman must have erred when be said Mr. Carnegie was surprised by the non-receipt of an official notice of tbe meeting called for Wednesday last. Last Saturday Clerk Shen pardsentto Mr. Carnegie certified copies of the ordinance and vote of thanks tendered by Councils, together with an official notice of the meeting to be held the following Wednesday. In addition bo prepared notices of tbe meeting for members of the commission, and mailed them on Saturday. On'Monday Clerk Sheppard received a telegram from Mr. Carnegie stating tbat business engagements prevented his at tendance, and asked tbat the meeting be post poned until the week following. In accordance with this request, without waiting until tho time fixed lor the meeting, Mr. Sheppard im mediately complied with Mr. Carnegie's re quest, and notinecVhim and all the members of tbe commission of tbe postponement One or two of tbe Citizen Commissioners called on Clerk Sheppard in relation to the matter after having received the clerk's call. The gentleman also erred in relation to se lection of members of the commission. Mr. Carnegie designated bis commissioners when he made tbe library proposition to Councils. Instead of being discourteous to either tbe generous donor or his commissioners, the Councilmanic members exercised both care and diligence in properly notifying them of the first lneetinc and were and are anxious to se cure a full attendance. One-third of the com mission had a perfect right to call meetings and to adjourn to any set time, but have no right to transact any other business. Perhaps iuc memoer quoiea laueu to receive nis notice. If he did tbe mails are to blame, not Clerk Sheppard or the Councilmanic members of the commission. All we ask is earnest co-opera tion on the part of the citizens designated by Mr. Carnegie to assist Councils in carrying out his grand project. Mr. Lambie then allowed the reporter to copy the original letter of Mr. Carnegie, in which the latter's cho;ce of trustees is indi cated. It is as follows: FebbuaryO, 1890. John S. Lambie, Esq., Chairman, Pittsburg, Pa.: Dear Sir As a result of our conference I send you the enclosed, which I beg you to hand to the proper authority. The gentlemen whom I propose as trustees, should the Coun cils favor me by accepting my offer, are as fol lows: James B. Scott Renben Miller, H. K. Porter. Rev. W. J. Holland, J. F. Hudson, E. M. Fer guson. H. C. Frick. David McCargo, Robert Pltcaim, George A. MacBetb, William N. Frew, John B. Jackson. Hoping that I may be privileged to give to tho city of Pittsburg tbe boon of a free public library, which I consider the most valuable gift a community could possibly obtain, and with many thanks for the courtesy of jonrself and associates on the committee, I am. very trulyyours, Amdrew Carnegie. MRS. GEEEN STILL OBJECTS To the Sale of SectlouSl to tho Grant Loco motive Works. Chicago, March 7. Hrs. Heltv Green and the other objectors of the sale of Section 21, of Cicero, to the Grant Locomotive Works, have got into the Supreme Court without giving the bond of $100,000, as re quired by Judge Collins. They took out a writ of error. Had they appealed and given a bond the locomotive works could not have gone on building on the land. Having ob tained a writ of error, the works can pro ceed, but must restore the land, if the Su preme Court decides against it. The works executed a mortgage of $350,000 on the land to the New York Life Insurance Company, and by an order entered by Judge Collins to-day this com pan v is to have a first lien on the lund of $602,000 paid into court by George M. Bogue, if the Supreme Court de cides adversely to the sale. Mrs. Green also filed a bill in the Circuit Court to-day to review Judge Collins' decree against her in the Section 21 case. She claims that the decree was contrary to the law and fact, and erroneous in several respects. K0T LOST, APTBK ALL. Rowland Leach Is Discovered to bo In Chi cngo. Chicago, March 7. "Rowland Leach, the traveling agent for a New York whole sale millinery house, has been found. Where he is, however, none are in a position to know or tell. The fact that he had been discovered, and that he is in his usual good health, was made known to the city detec tive force, and to the Pinkertou detectives by telephone. Orders were given at the same time to stop all work on tbe case. The telephone message purported to come from the Palmer House, but the clerks there professed to know nothing about the matter. Leach, it is believed, was located in a house on Wabash avenue, some distance from the center of the city. Cougliin! IS Nature's effort to expel foreign sub stances from the bronchial passages. 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 mueus allays irritation, induces repose, and is tho most popular of all cough cures. "Of the many preparations before the public, for the cure of colds, coughs, bronchitis, and kindred' diseases, thero is none, within the range of my experi ence, so reliable as Ayer's Cherry Teo toral. For years I was subject to colds, followed by terrible coughs. About four years ago, when so afflicted, I was ad vised to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral and to lay all other remedies aside.. I did 80, and within a week was well of my cold and cough. Since then I have always kept this preparation in the house, 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 cough, 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 Personal Statement Made Mr. James Moore. bv A GREAT WORK COMPLETED Mr. James Moore.a resident of Redmond's Mills, Pa., during a recent interview with the writer, had the following to say about his successful treatment with Drs. Copeland and Blair: "When I called at the office on Sixth ave nue, I found Dr. "W. H. Copeland person ally in charge of his extensive practice, not an assistant or substitute, as is the case in many other offices in the city. I was in a very serious condition at that time, and had been suffering greatly lor over six weeks. My trouble had grown on me until I was so weak and miserable tbat I felt as though life had become a burden. My head would stop up and my nostrils become clogged, first on one side and then on the other. There was a constant dropping from my head to my throat. This was especially bad at night. I would often have to sit up in bed for hours. When I would lie down the mucus would gather in my throat ana cause a smothering sensation. I would get up in the morning feeling more tired than when I went to bed the night before. I was con stantly hawking and spitting during the dav. Mr. James Moore, Redmond's Mills, Pa. "There were ringing and buzzing noises in my ears. My throat became worse, and for three months I was unable .to take anything but liquid nourishment. I was advised to go to Drs. Copeland & Blair. I found their charges even lower than patent medicines, so placed m self under tbeir care. "1 had not been under their treatment more than two weeks when I noticed a decided change in my condition, and I now feel as well as I ever did. The dropping from my head has stopped. My throat is no longer sore, and I can eat with out difficulty. My head is clear, and the ring ing in my ears has ceased. To state it briefly, I am now free from the symptoms I name, and owe my recovery to Drs. Copeland & Blair." Mr. Moore lives, as stated, at Redmond's Mills, Fa., and this interview can be readily verified. As bas been stated in previous issues of this paper. Dr. W. H. Copeland has made this city bis permanent home, and is personally in charge of his extensive practice. HOME TREATMENT. Mr. William Barnes, of Hickman, Pa,, in speaking of his catarrhal trouble, said: My head was stopped up. My tbroat, chest and lungs affected, and I bad lost all sense of taste and smell, when I was advised to try Drs. Cope land it Blair. The result was a surprise to me. I?m now perfectly well, and owe my recovery to their treatment. Some time ago Mr. Harry Phillips, of Hnlton, Allegheny county. Pa., commenced a course of home treatment for his catarrhal trouble, un der the care of Drs. Copeland & Blair. At that time his trouble bad assumed a very aggravated form. He stated to the writer as follows: "My nostrils wonld clog up. My head ached constantly. I had severe pains in my cbest. There was a dropping of mucus from my head to my throat. I had night sweats. My heart would palpitate rapidly, and bo followed by a slow, irregular beating and feeling ot f aintness. I was daily growing weaker. The slightest ex ertion tired me and X was unfit for work." "How do you feel now?" "Like another being. All tbe symptoms I have described to you have disappeared, and I feel as well as I ever did in my life."
