are composed of a warm-toned fabric, pret

harmony with tbe general scheme of color.
From the parlor one may enter a library,

indeed the scheduled details arc numerous,

them over. Upstairs on the Ii and floor
there are three large chambers and one small
one, just capacitated for a brass cot On
the upper floor there are three pretty rooms,
one of which is quite large and might be
used as a .guest's chamber. Of course the

The guest's chamber and the three large
chambers below are furnished with graceful,
rounded ash sets, varied in tone, and the
carpeting is iept cheerful in conformity
with the paperings and drapes. It would
take a column to give the inventory of the
household belongings, but suffice it to say
that everything is of the choicest nature,
not costly, but street and handsome and all
in excellent taste.

baths, plumbing, cellar room, walks and

Doubtless if the house were to be built in

could be made on the price mentioned, while
the cost in itself has been estimated for a

irssn Huous & Hacks,
In a little while the suave voice of the
census enumerator will be heard in the land,
and his engaging smiles will brighten every
highway aud byway in Allegheny county.
Up in their Lewis blocfc office, Supervisor
Oliver and his merry men are working away
for dear life; while the unrythmic clicking
of the typewriter, id est tbe machine not its
fair op erator, tells of the big clerical busi
ness being done. By and by the grain will
be separated from the chaff, and the many
applicants for tbe position of enumerator
will know whether they have been success
ful or tbe reverse.
Quite a number of them, it is to be feared,
will be the reverse. A certain amount of
cheek is, no doubt, required by every
would-be enumerator, but some of these
worthies, in the opinion of Mr. Oliver, have
a vast deal too much of it Take for in
stance the man who sauntered in to ask for
an enumeratorshipthe other dav, and owned
without a blush that he could not writel
Or take another individual, whose knowl
edge of caligrapby did not extend beyond
the printing ot his own name in big letters
of somewhat uncertain shape. Mr. Oliver
has had several recontres with people of this
sort It is a clause in the census aot that
the enumerators must be able to write and
cipher clearly.
BUSES OF APPLICANTS.
The Supervisor suspects many applicants)
whose papers were banded in, beautifully
filled up, of obtaining aid in the writing
thereof. In point of fact ho found out two
or three of these gay deceivers. One of
them had, unluckily for himself, forgotten
to have the back of the paper indorsed. He
was obliged to indorse it in the office, and
after some hesitation did so in execrable
handwriting, which could not bear compari
son with that on other parts of the paper.
Mr. Oliver said that he leared the services
of this man would not be required by the
Census Bureau.
When an applicant arrives in Mr. Oliver's
office he or she is instructed with regard to
tbe Qualifications necessary for an enumera
tor of census. The applicant must be of
good character, physical activity and abil
ity in writing. A printed blank is then
handed out for a formal application, upon
which the applicant is required to state his
or her birthplace, present residence and par
ticulars bearing on education and business
experience. An oath must be taken as to
the accuracy of the statements made, and
the application must be accompanied by two
letters of recommendation from reputable
citizens. A short chat with tbe supervisor
closes tne application, ana .car. Oliver exer
cises his own discretion on the appointment
or rejection of the applicant. If an appoint
ment be decided on the lucky individual se
lected receives due notice, and is required
to fill up a card ot acceptance or refusal. If
be accepts tbe appointment he is presented
with a copy of tbe rules for enumerators and
is instructed as to bis work at headquarters.
SWEAEING TO THE BLANKS.
The enumeration will commence on the
first Monday in June, and must be com
pleted in cities having over 10.0C0 inhabit
ants within two weeks after that date; and
in all other districts, on or before tbe first
day of July following. It will be necessary
for each enumerator to receive a commission
from tbe District Supervisor, and to take an
oath of which the following is a copy: "I,
Blank Blank, an enumerator for the blank
census of the United States, do solemnly
swear (or affirm) that I will make a trne and
exact enumeration of all the inhabitants
within the sub-division assigned to me, and
will also faithfully collect all other statistics
therein, as provided in the act lor taking the
blank census, and in conformity with all
lawful instructions which I may receive,
and will make due and correct returns there
of, as required by said act, and will not
disclose any information contained in the
schedules, lists, or statements obtained by
mo to any person or persons, except to my
superior ollicers."
The compensation to be paid to enumera
tors will be a minimum rate of 2 cents for
each living Inhabitant, 2 cents for each
death reported, IS cents for each farm, 20
cents for each establishment of productive
industry enumerated and returned, and for
each surviving soldier, sailor or marflio
enumerated and returned in all sub-divisions
where suoh compensation shall be deemed
sufficient. Except In extreme casci no trav
eling expenses will bo allowed to enumera
tors. Every enumerator will bo required to
visit personally each dwelling liouio In his
sub-dlyislon, and each family therein, and
eaoh Individual living out of a family In
any abode, and by scourato Inquiry obtain
all tho particulars required, truly and cor
rcotly. DANOKI1A TO UK AVOIDED.
A supervisor or enumerator who lias taken
tho oath, niul subsequently neglooti his
duties, or Illegally twisters them to another,
ilmll bo liable to suffer a flno not exceeding
600. If an npplloant Is found guilty of
perjury lie or slm shall bo Imprisoned for a
term not exceeding three years, nnd sudor a
fine not exceeding fBOO, If tho enumerator
wittingly makes fatso certificates or returns
lie shall suffer u fine not exceeding MOO.
In June, when Mr. Oliver let looso his
horde of enumerators upon tho olty and
enmity, the following questions will be
asked of the head of every family:
Christian namo In full and Initial of mlddlo
name?
HnrnnmeT
Whether a soldier, sailor, or marlno daring

these in turn have been' cs refnlly arranged,

Supervisor will breathe freely. Until then,
however, he is going to be a busy man.
A SOUTHSIDE NATAT0EIUM.
A Company Composed of Well-to-Do
Baslncss Men Will Dnlld a Largo Bath
house Swimming Claisee Will be
Farmed To Prevent Drotrnlaa'.
For some days past it has been whispered
about on the Southside that a movement was
on foot to build a natatorium. The project
has assumed definite form and is now a
pretty sure thing. About a dozen of the
well-to-do business men are interested in the
proposed company. It is not intended to
make it a money investment rather a
family affair for the use of the members and
their families. The capital stock will be
placed at about (35,000 in (50 or $100 shares.
The stockholders and their families will
have free access. The move is to give Soutb
siders the same advantages as those enjoyed
by residents of the old city in close prox
imity to their homes.
The price of admission to outsiders will be
made just enough to cover expenses. Two
days each week will be set aside for boys,
who will be given instructions in swimming
by a teacher. Dr. G. A. Ulrich, who Is
interested in the project, said last night that
one ot tbe things that first brought the sub
ject into discussion was the number of cases
of drowning each summer of children who
bathed in the river. They have no other
place to go and cannot be blamed for want
ing to go in bathing. They will be taught
how to swim and what to do in case of acci
dent in the water. Certain days will alsuhe
set aside for ladies and instructionsgiven by
a lady teacher in bathing and swimming.
Tbe building will be of brick, the large
bath being about 24x10 feet It will bo one
and a half stories high. A l ailing will ex
tend nround tbe bath, above and below.
The dressing rooms will be arranged on a
balcony running around the building.
Steps will lead down to the bath. Swings,
rings and all the usual apparatus will be
placed in the building. A number of pri
vate baths will also have a place in tbe
building. The site has not beendecided on.
Several have been under consideration. One
is on Nineteenth street, another on Seven
teenth street, and still another on Janestreet
A number of tbe gentlemen interested visit
ed tbe Pittsburg Natatorium the past week,
and will also visit those in other cities be
fore definite plans are formed. A meeting
will be held this week sometime, when steps
will be taken toward the organization of the
company.
A number of Southside citizens were seen
in regard to the project. Mr. William F,
Zoller was heartily m favor of it, and pro
nounced himself as one of the prospective
stockholders. Dr. E. A. Woods is always
in favor of any enterprise particularly
Southside in its character, aud said people
should help everv move along that would
benefit the Southside. He thought It would
greatly decrease the mortality from drown
ing among ehildren, and would be a capital
thing for adults, as public bath accommoda
tions on the Southside were something that
had been long neglected.

THE PENKSI WINS THE PATENT SUIT
A bill in equity was filed yesterday by
Mary, Thomas M., James H., David A.,
Charles S.. Clemie G., Ida B. and Florence
L. Kees and Mary J. Derr, beirs of James
Bees, against the City of Pittsburg, E. M.
Bigelow. Wharfmaster P. J. Donahue and
George Eagen, Michael Eagen and G. Ii.
Peabody.
The plaintiffs stato that they are the
owners of the property in the Fourth ward
at the corner of Duquesne way and Front
street, fronting 122 feet on Duquesne way.
Upon it is the machine shop of Bees, where
engines, etc., for steamboats are built. The
place, it is stated, is a valuable one for that
business on aecount of its proximity to the
river and the facility with which engines
can be placed on steamboats. By the act of
Ma'rch 31, 183C, the strip of land between
Duquesne way and the water line was laid
out as a wharf. This strip, the plaintiffs
claim they are entitled to have free and un
obstructed as a wharf.
The city, however, has been hauling dirt,
etc., to that portion of the wharf between
Third and Fourth streets, and making a fill,
destroying the place for wharf purposes.
Tbe plaintiffs claim the city has no legal
right to make a dumping ground of the
wharf, and ask that they bo enjoined from
doing so, and be compelled to restore the
wharf to its original condition.

In the Criminal Court yesterday ex

Mrs. Clark went to the brewry of Spencer &
Liddell to remonstrate against the selling of
beer to her son. She was violently ejected
from the place by Mr. Liddell, and thrown
down the steps nnd severely injured.
Mr. Liddell claimed that the woman had
been abusive to him without cause, and he
ordered her out, but did not use any vio
lence, she falling herself when outside, and
getting in that wa.y what slight hurts she
had received. The jury is out.

about a week since of running an illegal
still in Forest county.
The attorney stated that Miller, who is
out on bail, is too poor to await the regular
sentence day and too poor to go back home.
He therefore asked that sentence be im

fined one month in jail.

If the enumeration takes place in a coun
try district additional questions are asked.
These relate to the acreage of farms, tho
amounts of tilled, untitled and timber-covered
land, and the number of cattle, etc.
Altogether these questions are extremely
personal; and it is to be feared that some
exasperated honsewives will "go for" the

The Orphan' Court Bismlised tbe Appeal In
tbe Nlioenberger Case.
The Orphans' Court yesterday dismissed
the appeal from the decision of Register
Conner in holding that the letters to the ad
ministrators of the estate of tho late John
H. Shoenbergcr should issue from tho Regis
ter of Allegheny county Instead of Phila
delphia. Tbe executors appointed were the
Pennsylvania Company for the insurance on
lives and granting annuities, of Philadel
phia; Anthony J. Antello, of Philadelphia,
and Andrew Long and J. M. Eronson. of
Pittsburg. The will was probated In Kcw
York, but the letters were obtained from the
Register of Philadelphia, as a matter of con
venience, to administer the estate in Penn
sylvania. A copy of the will was filed with the
Register of Allegheny county. Register
Conner was ot the opinion that as the greater
part, if not all of the Shoenberger estate in
Pennsylvania was in Allegheny county,
the letters to administerlt should issue from
this county. A hearing showed that the
greater portion of the estate is in Alle
gheny county, and he ruled that the letters
should issue from here. An appeal was
taken, but the Orphans' Court sustained the
Register. This practically renders void the
letters issued in Philadelphia, unless the
Supreme Court should reverse the Orphans'
