fPter Carr Has Quite a Grievance
Against the Bijou Theater,
FOE WfllCfl HE YANTS "$5,000.
KHe Says lie Was Unjnstlj Ejected From
the Popular riajhonse.
i. BILL FA1BLT FILLED WITH FUN
May 6 seems to hare been an unlucky day
for the proprietors of the Bijou Theater, and
"Mr. Barnes of Jfew York," not a name to
conjure with. In the first place, a colored
man named VT. H. Austin sued the man
agement for 2.000 damages because he and
his lady were not allowed, as he alleged, to
occupy two reserved seats he had paid lor.
Then, "W. H. Thompson and Alex
ander Carson, of Allegheny, en
tered suit for $10,000 damages each,
alleging that they had bonght seats in the
parquet, and being accused of being drunk
and disorderly, were not ouly put out of the
theater, but were then arrested and seat to
the Central station in the patrol wagon.
And now comes the well-known and genial
Mr Peter Carr, of the First ward, who tells
Ms attorney a story that would be amusing
even to the plaintiff, were it not that he is
too deeply in earnest at present to enjoy the
humorous side of his own narrative.
W. J.. Brcnnen, Esq., has prepared the
papers in a suit to be entered in Common
Pleas No. 2, the title of which is "Peter
Carr versus H. M. Bennett and B. M. Gu
lick, doing business as R. M. Guhck &
Co."
CLAIMS OF MB. CAEB.
Plaintiff complains and says that the de
fendants are conducting a theater and a
place for presenting dramatic performances,
and providing amusement for the public,
called the Bijou Theater; that E. M. Gn
lick & Co. in tne conduct of their business
of presenting dramas and plays ior the
amusement of the public and for
the further purpose of increasing
the patronage and securing the
attendance of the public, advertise their
business in the newspapers, and have fixed
prices of admission; that as a fnrther in
ducement to the public, a band of musicians
is engaged who make the air resound with
sweet strains and enchanting and soul-stirring
harmonies; that on May 5 plaintiff by
and through the inducements and allure
ments held out by defendants, attended the
theater to see a play called "Mr. Barnes of
2few York," and before entering, defend
ants, through the employes and agents, de
manded from plaintiff 75 cents for
a seat, which snm plaintiff paid with
out demur for a teat in the parquet
circle; that plaintiff was conducted to the
seat engaged and sat thereon during the
the presentation of two acts of the play,
when, in accordance with the programme of
the performance, the orchestra, sometimes
called a "sheet-iron band," consisting of
wind and other instruments, struck up the
"Star-Spangled Banner," when plaintiff,
carried away by the patriotic memories
aroused by the inspiring tune, which is a
popular and soul-stirring air, was moved to
applaud by clapping his hands together as
a mark of appreciation and of his desire to
have the same repeated, this being a means
of expressing satis action and appreciation
adapted, recognized and practiced in every
well regulated theater in this county, as
well as theretofore in defendants' theater.
THIXKS THET FOEGOT SOMETHING.
But the defendants, says Mr. Carr, seem
ingly on account of the miserable music ren
dered, and not knowing or forgetting that
jnen may be moved by patriotic fervor and
sentiment, no matter how discordant the
sound or unskillful the player, and evi
dently regarding any efforts at applause of
their" orchestra as "being derisive, one of
their employes and agents accosted plain
tiff and requested him to leave the theater,
on account of his conduct aforesaid, and
plaintiff refused, not having violated any
reasonable regulation of the government of
the theater and having conducted himself
with all due decorum and propriety,
defendants, through their 'agents, etc,
wantonlv and wrongfully insisted on
plaintiff leaving the theater notwithstanding
the performance was far from being con
cluded, and made a spectacle by plaintiff,
and a subject for ridicule and comment for
the hundreds of persons collected in the
theater and exhibited him wrongfully as an
actor to the persons aforesaid, although not
in the bills as a performer. And after
defendants had wrongfully and fraudulently
ejected plaintiff they refused to permit him
to re-enter and see the remainder of the
performance and refused, though it was
frequently demanded, to return the price
paid br plaintiff for admission and sight of
the entire plav.
THE DAMAGES DEMANDED.
For all this indignity and injury to his
feelings, plaintiff asks for $5,000 damages.
In explanation of the term "fraudulently,"
Mr. Carr.Et.ites that an attendant came to
him and told him a man wanted to see him.
Mr. Carr didn't want to "see a man" at that
particular juncture, and savs he tola the at
tendant so in terms not to be misunderstood,
but the representation was finally made so
urgently that he, Mr. Carr, concluded the
businesss must be important, and consented
to go out, thus breaking a chain of pleasing
and patriotic emotions that he may never be
able again to generate.
FOR JEKVOTJS DISEASES
Use HorsfordV Add Pliotphate.
Dr. F. G. Kelly. Alderton, W. T., says: ''I
have prescribed it in a large nnmber of cases of
restlessness at night, and nervous diseases gen
erally, and also in case of indigestion caused
by lack of sufficient gastric jniceot tbe stom
ach, with marked Buccess. and consider It one
of tbe best remedies known to the professional
world."

THE OLD, OLD STORY.
Almost dally pur readers have seen chroc
icled in the columns ot this paper a detailed
account of the death of someone they knew
perhaps some lady who, in the prime of life,
young, vivacious and happy, was surrounded
by friends and every luxury this life can
afford. She may have once been a regular at
tendant at church, a leading light In society,
a friend to the poor; bnt in an uncautious mo
ment she has taken cold, and how quickly
this has fanned the flame of a catarrhal poi
son tbat has lain dormant in ber system for
years. Tbe result only too plainly shows. Her
case progressed rapidly, and terminated as all
cases of citarrb do, unless properly treated,
in consumption or some otber incurable dis
ease. According to the mortuary reports, hun
dreds of just snch neglected cases of catarrh
have resulted in death in Pittsburg during the
last jear.
Mr. Fred Hahu, a resident of Sharpsburg,
and well known throughout Allegheny county
and Western Pennsylvania, has lor years
been a victim of catarrh and dyspepsia.
His stomach gave bun an endless amount of
trouble. He had belching of gas from his
stomach after eatinz.sour taste, and often felt
like vomiting his food. His appetite was poor,
and as his liver was mucb enlarged it gave him
great pain. In fact, he would often be taken'
with sucb sharp cramps and pain across his
stomach and bowels it seemed as if he could
not live. Ho bad palpitation or the heart,
dizziness, weakness and pain across tbe small
of his back, and a numb, lifeless feeling in bis
limb:. He could get bnt little sleep, and as
every change of weather gave hirn a cold, he
took on a lineerine couch. His breath became
short and be felt pain and soreness in bis lungs
and under bis shoulder blades. Night sweats
.weakened bim verv fast, and be gradually grew
worse until he lost 30 pounds of flesh
Mr. Fred Bahn,
Having a wife and two small chil
dren whom ho dearly loved, depend
ing on him for a living, and hav
ing spent all his money In doctoring to no avail,
not being able to work, he became discouraged
and disheartened, and often became so melan
choly that he wonld feel tempted to jump
into tbe river and thus end his suffer
ing. One day he noticed in tbe
paper an account of a patient who had been
cured by tbe catarrh upecialists at 323 Penn
avenue of conditions that seemed similar to
his own. He resolved to call on these special
ists. He did so, and was told he could yet be
cured. Although ho had but little faith, he re
solved to try once more, and after taking a
course of treatment became cured. He says:
"The above history of my disease and cure is
trne in every respect. I bad received treat
ment from 20 phjsicians, yet gradually grew
worse, and for one year before beginning treat
ment with these phvsicians I was scarcely
able to do any work. I have now worked hrd
for the past two months, feel well and strong,
and words do not express the joy I feel that
my life has been spared and health restored. I
hereby sign my name. FRED HAHN."
Please bear in mind tbat THESE SPECIAL
ISTS HAVE BUT ONE OFFICE, and which
is PERMANENTLY LOCATED at 323 Penn
avenue.
Also please remember that this is the only
institution in Pittsburg where only Catarrh,
Dyspepsia and Diseases of Women are re
ceived for treatment, preferring to treat these
diseases successfully rather than attempt to
cure all disrates.
