COAL' PIT MISSIONS.
The Seamen's Friend Societj May
Bnild a Boat to Ply the Kiver.
AN ADDITION TO THEIR HOTEL
Three Stories to be Added to the Building
on Dnquesne Way.
WHAT PITTSBOKG'S BRANCH IS DOING
A meeting JBf the Board of Directors of
the Pittsburg branch orthe "Western Sea
men's Friend Society was held in the par
lors of the Home Hotel yesterday morning;
It was decided to bnild three additional
stories to the new building on Dnquesne
way adjoining the hotel. The work will
cost in the iieighboihood of $10,000. The
members of the Executive Committee were
ordered to go ahead with the work, and
hare it completed as soon as possible. The
improvement is to famish additional ac
commodations to the institntion.
The "Western Seamen's Friend Society is
the chartered name of the Home Hotel.
Among the members of the board of direct
ors are the following named well-known
gentlemen: Controller E. S. Morrow, Felix
B. Brunot, Benjamin Thaw, "W. B.
Thompson, FranK Semple, Robert "Ward
rop, J. P. Hanna, D. K. Bushnell, B. P.
"Wallace, "W. A. Herron, B, C. Miller, C.
L. Rose and George . McCagne.
THE HOME SELF-SUrrOBTING.
The Pittsburg institution is not only self
sustaining, but it contributed $600 annually
to the parent organization in Cleveland.
The house ot the society was established in
this city to take care of any destitute river
men. When it was located here the Alle
gheny Valley Ra ilroad was not built, and
hundreds of lumbermen came down irom
the region each week on rafts. Very often
they would strike town without money and
fonnd refuge in the Seamen's Home. The
home now maintains a bethel department
for men who are known to be "playing in
tough luck."
The Poard of Directors has also nnder ad
visement the idea of having a steamboat
bnilt for the purpose of plying the Monon
gabela river and holding religious services
on Sunday at the mouths of the different
coal pits. The scheme has been extensively
talked of, and as soon as sufficient money
can be secured the boat will be bnilt It
will be lowed to the head waters of the
Monongahela and thence floated down the
stream to the different landing places.
MISSIONS AT COAIi PITS.
It is the intention to hold services at as
many points as possible, and at each place
establish a mission and a Sunday school.
About three or four men, it is stated, will be
enough to run the boat. A minister, noted
more for his exhorting powers and the range
of his voice than his elocutionary abilities,
will be engaged to conduct the services. It
is expected that much good will be accom
plished in a religious way by the use of the
boat. The expenses of the vessel will be
met bv popular subscription.
There is a debt of about $2,000 on the
hotel now. and it will have to be mortgaged
again to pay for the addition. The property
of the society in this city is worth about
$50,000. The new addition will have a
pressed brick front, with stone trimmings.
