A few months ago the people of Erie undertook to boycott the Pennsylvania Gas Company on account of a raise in the rates. The boycott failed, and the City Council asked the courts for an in junction to compel the Pennsylvania Com piny to take up its pines and abandon its million-dollar plant. The grounds were that the company had refused to furnish the manu factunng establishments cm as they had prom ised when Council gave tlio company the use of the street.

The revenue of the gas company from the city is over 100,000 annually. EEFUSES TO GO WITH HIS MOTHER.

Phenomenal Growth and Popularity of tho Everett Piano Fnctory Capacity to be Doubled. One would think that a piano factory which turns out 80 finished pianos per week would be almost enough to supply all Amer ica. Yet this lias been the production of the Everett factory, and now we are notified that the company are at work on the found ations lor another factory of equal capacity, and by the 1st of October will be making 160 pianos per week. Think of it, and ask why it is that while other makers are struggling for existence, this company cannot supply the demand for their pianos. The reasons are simple. The fact is that the Everett Com pany are a rare combination of money and Drains. The present lactory. while not tbe largest, is probably tbe best equipped and most systematically conducted one in the world; consequently they are able to make a first-class piano for less money than other makers. This being the case, it naturally miiows mat me wiae-awase dealers in the business all want the agency for the Everett piano. They are tbe loremost pianos of the day, and ample proof can be found a-t tbe agency in this city, where you can get pianos of almost every other "make, which have been taken in exchange for tbe Everett. Alex. Boss, of 137 Federal st, Allegheny, has contracted for 350 of these pianos, and while these last bas reduced the price 75 on all styles, so that you can now get one of the finest pianos in the world at 350. in a rose wood case, or at ?375 and 5400 in any of the fancy mahogany, antique, oak, French walnut, etc. These are cash prices, but you can arrange to get one of these pianos on payments to suit your own convenience. Do not fail to see them, or send lor circular, to Alex. Ross, 137 Federal st, Allegheny.

As the MAMMOTH, in pro-historic times, exceeded in balk all other lorms of contemporary life, so in present times TiATBD'S MAMMOTH SHOE STORES surpass all competitors In num ber, quantity and quality of goods, but especially in the mar velous bargains presented at all timea As the ALLIGATOR is the most formidable among saurians swarming in American -waters, so do Shoes, at LAIRD'S, made from Alligator hides, defy wear and water as perfectly as when it was originally fastened upon tho back of his Gaitersnip. Attention is called next to the largest Marsupial, the Austra lian KANGAROO, famous for his jumping abilities. Shoes from thi3 kind of hide are especially adapted for Spring-wear. The distinguished member of the genus capricornus com monly known as DONGOLA GOAT, furnishes fine, soft skins for lady tourists; Shoes especially adapted for scaling moun tains and high peaks. In this business, as in others, the most useful are the common, everyday domestic animals, such as Porkers.Veal Calves, Oowa and Horses, who furnish from their much enduring hides the most substantial, reliable, pliable and all-round wearing foot gear for people of all ages and feet of all sizes. The difference between seeing curious and interesting objects at Museums and these wonders of APPLIED ZOOLOGY AT LAIRD'S is, that it costs yod money at the former, while you can save much money by visiting the latter.
