BOOKS AS CURRENCY.
The Unique Admission Fee to be De
manded at an Entertainment
JIAKIKG GRAI-BEAEDS PONDER.
Decorating for the Reception of the Scotch
Irish Congress.
SOCIAL EYENTS IN THE TWO CITIES
A. delightlul entertainment will be given
on the erening ot Jnne 3, in the Second
Presbyterian Church, to which the admis
sion fee is both novel and unique. A boot
of any sort, on any subject, in any binding,
by any author, will be acceptable at the
door, and on receipt of such the bearer will
be joyfully welcomed in the Sunday school
room where the entertainment, puerly liter
ary and musical, will be held. The object
of this entertainment is the refilling of the
shelves of the Sunday school library that
has br constant demand and patronage be
come in almost the deplorable state that
Old Mother Hubbard's cupboard is famed
for.
The book admission plan was tried once
before by the officers ol the Sunday school
in a like emergency, and with such excel
lent results that the success of this event
and tbe consequent supply of good, healthy
literature is assured.
EXERCISE FOR THE BRAIN.
In this manner all thinking persons in
th adult congregation rack tneir brain lor
the memories of youthful day reading, and,
deciding upon the volume that made the
most wholesome impression ppon their
minds, and forthwith purchase a copy to
present with their compliments; while the
younger and the juvenile members, each
Having at some previous time read a boot
that they were keeply interested in,
do likewise, and thus a collection is
obtained that in scope and variety is far
superior to one consisting of the same num
ber of volumes selected by a committee
whose tastes are quite likely to run in
certain channels. The individual books,
however, are subject to the approval of com
petent judges, and anything that would not
tend to the elevation and broadening of the
mind of the render will be forbidden space
in the library, though the range is liberal,
inviting good novels, historical and poetical
works and books of travel, and is not con
fined to the Sunday school book where the
hero or heroine die young on account of an
over abundance of piety.
A GOOD PROGRAMME.
The entertainment will consist of reading,
recitations and musical selections by the
Snnday school, individually and collect
ively, and also recitations by Miss Harris,
the talented elocutionist.' Interspersed
through the programme will be selections by
the Schmertz Orchestra and the grand finale
will be an instrumental duet bv two China
men, members of the Xee family, who will
render upon tbe banjo and violin of their
native country, such musio as those who
have not previously had their curosity grati
fied regarding Chinese music, will be inter
ested in hearing.
SCHOOLMATES TO WED.
The Marriage Announced of Miss Annie I
Wnttlrs and Dr. J. Richer Horner.
Xo invitations will be issued for the wed
ding of Miss Annie L. AVattles and Dr. J.
Eichey Horner, which is to take dace at the
"Wattles residence, on Center avenue.Shady
side, in the early eve of June S, as the cer
emony will be witnessed bv only the mem
bers of the immediate families ot the bride
and groom. It was at first intended to have
a large church wedding, and nearly a thou
sand invitations had been ordered, but
the continued ill-health of Mrs. Wat
tles, the mother of the bride-elect,
made it doubtful whether or not she
could be present at a church cere
mony and the programme was changed.
Miss Annie "Wattles is the daughter of "V.
"W. "Wattles, the Filth avenue jeweler, and
a most charming joung lady possessed of
R-sch graces that "endear her to all who
Live the pleasure of her acquaintance and
ir.'tndship. "With the young gentlermn,
who so shortly will claim her for his bride,
she graduated from the High School in the
class of 1880, and has since pursued an ex
tended course of study which has eminently
fitted her to shine in the higher circles, of
society in which she moves.
Dr. Horner is a prominent voung physi
cian of the homeopathic school, a son of
Eev. Dr. Joseph Horner, who has charge of
the book interests of the M. E Church in
this city. He is one of the medical staff of
the HomeopathicHospital, and has attained
very enviable position in his profession.
After the simple ceremony, at which the
sisters of the bride. Misses Julia and Lillie,
will assist as bridesmaids, a wedding supper
will be served, and then the young couple
will depart for a Northwestern trip,
which will include Waukesha Springs,
"the Saratoga Springs of the West," where
the American Institute of Homeopathv will
be held June 16, at which Dr. Horner
ocsires to be present and at which he will in
nil probability be a delegate from theassocia
tion in this city. "At Home" cards will be
issued to friends for Thursdays in Jnlv, and
the residence, at 91 Arch street, which is to
be the home of the newly-wedded pair, will
by that time have received the finishing
touches to its already partially furnished
rooms that will bespeak the arrival and the
ciqnisite taste of the charming little
AT THE COLUMBUS CLUB.
A Plcnsnot Evening of Music and Sons at the
Third Mnstenlc.
It was both a representatiue and appre
ciative audience that filled the spacious par
lors of the Columbus Club last evening,
the occasion being the third of the series of
musicales to be given by the club. The
florals decorations vied with the costumes of
the ladies for being elaborate. After the
first part or the entertainment had been con
cluded the assemblage adjourned to tbe
dining halls, where they partook of refresh
ments, which had been furnished for the
occasion by tbe club's caterer.
Some of tbe best musical talent in tbe
city had been secured for the evening and
contributed largely to enjoyment of the
evening. The Mandolin Quartet rendered
several popular and classical selections in a
creditable manner. The quartet is com
posed of the Missea Dabbs and
Maloney and Messrs. Kirk and Neeb.
Mr. Ambrose B. Eeed read a very
interesting paper on Pennsylvania history.
Messrs. Hine and Buffum played a duet on
the zither, which received ronnds ot ap
plause. Mr. A. V. D. "Watterson's "III
Miserie" was encored in a liberal manner.
A number of Catholic clergymen were ores
ent, amonc whom were Eev. Fathers Wall,
Sheeay, Conway and others. Everyone
present voted the affair a success.

MEPARING FOR THE CONGRESS.
Tho Scoleh-IrUh Delegates Jo be Embow
ered In Botes nnd Received In Grove of
Palms nnd Other Tropical rinnla Mo
nongaheln House Decorations.
The Monongahela House, which was so
elaborately and gayly decorated for the
Pan-American reception last winter, will
assume a still more enchanting appearance
for the benefit of the visiting delegates and
ladies of the Scotch-Irish Congress.
Tho entire second floor of the house will
be made inviting and picturesque by the
lavish use of tropical plants, that in their
delicious green coloring suggest rest
and coolness besides delighting the eye.
Many of them were ordered especially
from New York for the occasion
and arrived in this .city yesterday.
Some of the exquisite pottery in which they
are to be placed is also on the way from the
East. Three elegant Wedgewood vases and
pedestals, 3 feet high, one a beautiful
rolden yellow, the others a delicate blue
and rich red respectively, will hold palms
corresponding in beauty and height, and
will form center pieces for three immense
pyramids. Tbe alcove opposite the office
entrance will be graced with one and the
others will tower in all their magnificence
in the hall of the ladies' entrance and at the
extreme Water street end of the main hall.
The arches of the long hall will be grace
fully festooned with the asparagus plumosa,
in portiere fashion, while in every nook and
corner will be arranged rare exotic plants in
rarer imported vases and jars.
The long vista of windows in the dining
hall will all be receptacles lor the more
dainty and delicate botanical specimens in
artistic profusion, and the center table on the
opening night will be a marvel of beauty,
A simulated pond, with uneven mossy
banks and natural rustic appearance, will
be graced by a family of ivory swans, each
burdened with the most exquisite roses to be
procured. The lake effect will extend about
eight feet, and at either end of the table will
be arranged handsome French baskets filled
with fragrant flowers. The small tables will
all receive a share of tbe flowers, and the
dining room will be a scene of beauty.
Mr. A. M. Murdoch, of the firm of A. M.
& J. B. Murdoch, who have charge of the
decorations, has just returned from a New
York trip, on which be purchased the beau
tiful palms and Wedgewood vases that will
make their debut in the Monongahela House
next week.

can, of Osburn, will have four hostesses Misses
Duncan, Blair; McCleery and Wilting.
The regular meeting of the Botanical So
ciety of western Pennsylvania will be held in
the Teachers horary this evening.
ITXUTG THE FORFEITS.
Chief Brown Prepares a Schedule of the
Cash Deposits to be Received.
Mayor Gourley, after several consultations
with Chiet Brown and Aldermen Gripp and
McKenna, has decided that the order issued
last Wednesday by Chief Brown was entire
ly too sweeping. The Mayor has decided to
allow the acceptance of forfeits at police sta
tions, and yesterday directed Chief Brown
to prepare a schedule of amounts to be ac
cepted in different cases.
To a reporter for Tiie DisrATCn the
Mayor said yesterday: "Your money is bet
ter than my bond. The relusal of cash de
posits would, I see, often work hardships.
A man irom Greensbnrg, whom I know to
be a good citizen at home, came here three
weeks ago and got drunk. He was arrested,
but had his pockets fnll of money. Had he
been required to produce a bond
he might have been unable to do
so, as I know that he has very
few acquaintances in this city. The
absolutely rigid enforcement of the law does
sometimes work hardships. It seems to me
to be proper that the Chiet or the inspectors
should have authority to release prisoners
undcr certain circumstances. I have no
objection to the exercise ot that privilege.
I did not mean that Chief Brown should
issue an order as extensive in its meaning as
he did, but be followed the strict construc
tion of my note to him. It was simply a
case of misunderstanding."
Chief Brown has sent ont a rescinding
order, fixing the following schedule of for
feits for various offenses:Drunkenness, 85;
disorderly conduct, 530; keeping disorderly
house, $105. These are the same figures ob
served formerly. There has, however, been
no fixed figure tor keeping a disorderly
house. The maximum fine is $100 and the
5 is intended to cover the costs.
Indigestion
IS not only a distressing complaint,'0
itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en
feebled, is tbe parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayer's Sarsaparllla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph. Lake, of BrockwSj
Centre, Mich.:
"Liver complaint and indigestion
made my life a burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years I suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the time mentioned several
Sbysicians treated me without giving re
ef. Nothing that I took seemed to do
any permanent good until I commenced
the use of Ayer's Sarsaparllla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa
rllla I could see an improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it came the ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength im
proved each day, and after a few
months of faithful attention to yonr
directions, I found myself a well
woman, able to attend to all household
duties. The medicine has given me a
new lease of life."

IT IB ROT DECIDED,
Bat It Is 'Believed the Mxili Street Bridge
Will be Modernized.
A report hat somehow or other gained
currency that the stockholders ot the Sixth
street suspension bridge had decided to re
model that structure to conform with the
modern requirements of allowing horse
speeding and to accommodate rapid street
railway transit, but it would seem that the
rumor has not yet crystallzed, though it is
not denied that the consummation is proba
ble. Mr. William Eoseburg was said to be one
who would talk on the subject, and ho did,
but his talk did not convey any impression
of certainty in the matter. He said there
would be a meeting of the stockholders on
the 30th, when it was likely the proposition
would be considered, arrd it they wanted the
change it would be made, but lie disclaimed
any ability to tell what the outcome would
be or eveu to hazard a prediction.
CENSUS ENUMERATORS APPROVED.
Robert C. Porter Is Mntlsded With tho Ap

Their Combined Stocks for Cnih Tho
P. C. C. C. (be Purchasers.
Several days ago our buyers got wind of a
big clothing deal which was to take place.
It was no more nor less than the immediate
sale for cash of $500,000 worth of fine cloth
ing. Of course they took advantage of it
and bought most of the men's fine suits
offered, at about 33J rents on the dollar.
The goods are now marked and placed for
sale at our big store, and we are offering the
most unheard of bargains. Men's fine suits,
which cost $25 to make, will be sold for
$8 50; Prince Albert coats and vests, worth
S35, at 512; boys' suits, sizes 14 to 19. worth
$10, marked to sell for $5; men's fine
diagonal cutaway suits at $10, and many
more bargains we have not the space to
mention. Call and see them.
