I a -' TK- THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, SUNDAY, JUNE 22,- 1890. HOGS AT THE TABLE A Hotel Clerk Frozen Oat of the Dining Room for Two Years bj Some Things He Had to See. ORDERS GIVEN FOR ALL IN SIGHT. An fngllsh Knmismatician After a Tala- aole Collection of Hound Belies in Colambns, Ohio, A-TISITIK TAIN TO BISHOP PHELAN. Just a Trace r Eebel let In a One-Armed Confeder ate Tetcran. "-Several drummers were leaning against a hotel counter yesterday chatting with the clerk, when the subject turned to eating and drinking. One remarked that he had his opinion of the man who would order a lot of 3ieTit rrvinnW (mm innnU nnil then often without tasting many of them, leave jthe table, his appetite satisfied with only a ew things. The food is wasted aud goes to he swill barrel. "Well, that is a fact," spoke up the clerk. ''There is so much about the tables that is wasted by the guests. I have not been in the dining room for two years. The fact is, I seldom go there, for when I do I always see something that ruffles my temper, and I keep away. AN ECONOMICAL DAUGHTER. ''I' remember once when I worked In a Philadelphia hotel the proprietor had a daughter of a very economical turn. "When she saw a waiter going to the table with two lamb chops she always stopped him and iook one away, witn tbe remarc that one was enough, and tbe other wonldn't be eaten. It is customary, however, in serving lamb chops to give two, but it is also true that only one is usuallydevoured. Of course if a guest wanted another lamb chop he got it, bnt we used to nave lots of fnn with that, cirl, and her peculiarities were very amus ing. Suddenly one of the drummers gave the current of conversation a twist, and it flowed to the subject of eggs. It was the drummer's inning, and be delivered himself thus: "Xever eat an egg omelet. They look pretty and may taste all right, but I wouldn't vouch for the age of the e?gs. Old cooks tell me that wben an egg is a little off color 'they always keep them to make omelets. Sometimes you can fry tbe odor out of an egg, but the safest way to eat them is poached. Why, yon ask. Because you can't poach a decayed egg." some rmrarr people. At this point the clerk once more entered the arena: "We have some funny people eat here," he began. "I know one man who never eats anything but fried tripe. He never takes any dinner, but he revels at breakfast and snpper with his favorite dish. The other night he rushed into the hotel about 10 o'clock. 'By George,' he exclaimed, 'I ran here from the Baltimore and Ohio depot,' lor tear tne dining room would be closed and I couldn't get any tripe.' The doors werefnot closed and he got his favorite dish. I know another man who is fond of Ger man pancakes, and he won't eat anything else when be can get them. Rot long since he got mad because we charged him extra for them. Pancakes were not on the bill of fare, but he ordered them and they had to be made specially. He couldn't see that it made .any difference, but the Jine must be drawn somewhere. Like the man who wanted Iried oysters. They were served ra,w, hut .he wanted them the" othqr.wav; he got. them, and had to pay extra. He couldn't understand, either, that there wes a differ ence between a fried and a raw oyster." NOTHING BT HALVES. After this speech by tbe clerk the subject ot 'drinking was taken up: "Pittsburgers never do things by halves," remarked a drummer. "I always know them by the size ol the drinks they take. They pay good prices for their whisky, and seldom fail to drink a full glass. I remember once I saw a fellow lay down a quarter and then 11 up th rlass to the brim. The bartender took the money. 'So change?' asked the drinker. 'Xo, we charge 25 cents for a tumbler, 10 cents for a drink. You know what you got.' There was silence for the space of a half hour, and then the man at the counter quietly edged to the door and got away." A lOKQ JOURNEY IN VAIN. Father Gnrrrj. Fruitiest Vl.lt to tbe Biahop Now In Europe. Rev. James Garvey, of New York, left Pittsburg yesterday afternoon. Father Garvey has suffered a rather severe disap pointment. It seems that he did not know of Bishop Phelan's departure for Europe, and came on here in order to introduce a new religious order into Pittsburg. The order is called the "Brothers of the Poor," and is rather like the female order of "Sisters of the Poor," so well known in Prance and Belginm. Father Garvey has introduced the order into Baltimore and New York, and being an old friend of Bishop Phelan's thought he could get a foot hold here. When he found that Bishop Phelan had left he decided to wait until that prelate shall return Irom the far East "The Brothers of the Poor" have little of worldly riches, and the expense of the fruit less journev hither will weigh heavily on their exchequer. REACHING AFTER PITTSBURG. The Tjpotheite Anxious to Get a Footing - lu ihia City. Mr. W. W. Pasko, librarian and repre sentative of the Typotheise, is staying in town. He will meet the employing prin ters of Pittsburg, at the Seventh Avenue Hotel, at-8 P. M., in order to explain the objects of his society, and organize a local branch. The Tvpotheta?, he says, is not merely an opposition society to the Typo graphical Union. There are branches in fifty cities in the United States, and over six hundred members. Tbe society has ex isted for oyer seven years. Mr. Pasko says: "I want to see if I cannot bring your em ploying printers round ito my opinions. I want to make Pittsburg our fifty-first city." ETTIX A BIT OF REBEL. A Ono-Armed Confederate Vrteran Who Ilnan't Forcotten All. Captain F. L. Lee, ol Benham, Tex., is in town. CapUiu Lee is a one-armed man, of splendid physique, but does not dress at all like the citizen of the Lone Star State. When questioned, yesterday, be opened his greaj.eyes and exclaimed: "Business here? Certainly not. I've Iefi my business behind me, and came North on a pleasure tour. Nice sort of fool I'd be to bring business along." Captain Lee fought on the Confed erate side during the Civil War, and there still remains with him a bit nl ih.M rK- elry. He lately voyaged all the way to Richmond to witness the unveiling of the stale of Robert E. Lee. LOOKING FOR OLD COINS. A DIall;alabed Knmlaraatlst Looking; After iome Trenanrea. Mr. Lloyd G.

"When seen yesterday, Mr. Woodside said: "Although not'an official delegate of the K. N. 8., it Ms an understood ftct across the water that my business is in behalf of that society. 1 haTe heard that a gentleman is now residing in Columbus, O., who has in his possession some prehis torio coins, found among the Ohio mounds. I am now going to meet this gentleman, whose name is J. Stuart "Williams, in order to induce him to sell a few of the coins, or at least permit me to have them photo graphed. "I presume Pittsburg is not ancient enough to haTe coins interesting to a numi matist, or, as you put it, a 'coin crank? I have heard a good deal of this city, how ever, and will stay here for another day." CHARLES ACHEHHETL'S BURIAL. Funeral of a Noted Engineer, Bnalneae Alan and a Good Citizen. Business and society both sustained a severe loss by the death of Charles Achen heil, who was buried from St, Paul's Cathedral yesterday afternoon. At the time of the railway accident, which cost Mr. Achenheil's life, he was returning from Baltimore, where he 'had been conducting important business for the Baltimore and Ohio Kailroad Company.

THE M'CANDLESS PRIZES AWARDED To Three Proficient Little Pupils of the School Kitchen. SKETCH OP A WORTHI IHST1TDTI0K The cooking school is a pronounced suc cess, and one of no small proportions, either, judging from the large audience in attend ance at the closing exercises yesterday after noon, and the interest evinced in the tiny cooks, their teacherMiss Ballon, and the tempting results of the combined skill and labor of both teacher and cooks. The liter ary programme preceded the seeing and sampling of the dainties that ladened the tables in the school kitchen, and was very interesting. The exercises were held in the school hall, which was well filled with the immense class ot little cooks, in charming little white frocks and white caps, occupy ing the reserved seats in front. On the platform were seated the distinguished gen tlemen who were to make the addresses, aud Miss Ballon, with Dr.W. H. McKelvy, the Chairman of the Central Board of Edu cation, as master of ceremonies, who an nounced Mr. D. R. Torrence, Chairman ot Committee on Industrial Schools, as the first speaker. . The subject on which Mr. Tor rence spoke, very appropriately, was the school kitchen and its history, which was made possible through the kindness and benevolence of Mr. Henry Phipps, Jr., who, on the 13tb of December, 1887, offered to furnish a teacher for a year, if the school authorities would provide suitable room and pay incidental expenses. The offer was accepted, as was also the offer of the Grant School Board, to give tbe free use of a room, and the school was opened February 27, under the charge of Miss E. E. Torry, wno proved a very efficient teacher and a good organizer, bnt whose resignation was tendered in July, nearly a year ago, and to whose place Miss Ballou was elected, with most gratifying results, as the school has increased greatly in number and pop ularity, and receives the co-operation of all connnected with thepublio schools or Board of Education. THE PBIZE WISNEB3. Congratulating Miss Ballou on her suc cess as a teacber, and the public schools of Pittsburg for having made the art ot cook ing one of their studies, Mr. Torrence re tired, and the Bread Baking Committee, consisting of Mrs. A. G. McCandless, Hon. George L. Holliday and Hon. H. P. Ford E resented its report, which gladdened the earts of little Mamie Kelly, of Mt. Washington; Pearl Ruch, of Belle field, and Blanche Ward, of Belle field, as the knowledge of good bread which Mrs. McCandless possessed, after living tnree-score of years ana ten. enabled her to pronounce them the winners of the first, second and third prizes, re spectively, the gentlemen haying confessed their ignorance and left it entirely 111 the hands of the lady, who was much more competent to judge than a younger and less experienced woman would have been, but who consented to act only at the earnest request of her son, whose command instead of request is generally conceded to be law. The committee, represented bv Hon. George Holliday, complimented tbe.edtire class upon their skill in bread baking, and, while awarding the three prizes, re gretted that they were not possessed of one for each little pupil. Hon. H. L Gourley, in a happy manner, presented the prizes to the successful ones, after descending from tbe platform that -be might be on a level with tbe petite cooks to whom he addressed his remarks. . . HIS PrBST STEPPING-STONE. Referring briefly to his own principalship of the Grant school, as the first stepping stone in his life, he went on to pay Massa chusetts a deserving compliment for its progress as a State, and said that while Pittsburg had to go to Boston for a cooking school teacher, the time was not far distant when, through Miss Ballou's efforts, Pitts burg would send any nnmber of teachers to Massachusetts. After, giving the little ones a hearty invitation to celebrate the Fourth of July in a regular old-fashioned, patriotic style, under the trees in Scbenley Park, the honorable Mayor presented the prizes, which Sheriff McCandless has furnished an ex quisite little ring to Mamie Kelly, a beauti ful stickpin to Pearl Ruch, and a handsome bouquet to Blanche Ward. Superintendent George J. Luckey, stand ing beside the three little maidens, received tbe prizes in their behalf, and though he said it was tbe first time he had ever tried to be a little girl, yet tbe thanks returned S roved him quite successful in his efforts. liss Ballou concluded the exercises by pre senting iue uimomns, ana maae nonorable mention of little Helen Montreville, who had prepared 406 dishes in nine weeks. The company then descended to the im promptu dining room, where a beautiful sight greeted them. The tables were by lar tbe most beautuni ot tbe many that have been laid there, and reminded one that it was the season o flowers as well as the sea sou of delirious eatables. Everything im aginable was to be seen, in such "perfection, too meats of every description, biscuits, doughnuts, crullers, cookies, tarts, pastry, cakes and jellies all temptingly arranged and quickly served, to the evident satisfac tion ot the visitors, by the white-unifortaed cooks themselves. .

Miss Loniia Slmendinger yesterday en tered suit in Common Pleas Court No.l by her attorneys, Robb and Fitzsimmons and A. Fisher, for $30,000 for alleged defama tion of character. The defendant is Mrs. Margaret McNeil, wife of Foundryman James McNeil. According to the allega tions, the tronble arose out pf Mc Neil suing his wife for a divorce, which suit terminated in a verdict for the defendant. Tnen Mrs. McNeii' turned the scale by bringing a suit against her husband for divorce, accusing him of infidelity, and in her statement is found Miss Simendinger's grievance, Mrs. McNeil charging that her husband had held im proper relations with the plaintiff in this suit. Miss Simendinger states that the accusa tion was false, malicious and defamatory, and by reason thereof she is rendered liable to persecution, and is shunned by her neigh bors and acquaintances. Also, that by rea son of the charge she not only suffered in reputation, but lost a situation as saleslady in Boggs & Buhl's store, in Allegheny, where she received a salary of $18 a week. She sues generally for damages sustained to reputation, and specially for the resultant loss of her means of livelihood. It is stated that when the scandal first arose Messrs. Boggs & Buht said they would not discharge tbe plaintiff unless something further developed, but when Mrs. McNeil's statement was filed and was published in the papers the matter became so notorious that they took cognizance of the matter and dispensed with Miss Simen dinger's services. She, it is stated, waited for a vindication until it became ap parent that Mrs. McNeil was not pushing the case, thus depriving her of a chance to vindicate herself, making it necessary for her to assume the offensive. The plaintiff says that previously she bore a good character. In her divorce suit, Mrs. McNeil has ob tained a rule on her husband to show cause why he should not make her an allowance for counsel fees and other expenses pendente lite. MERCHANTS' EXOUfiSION.

Inmates of Orphan Asylums Will Join in tha Celebration. PICNIC PARTIES C0KDIALLI INTITED "Will I go to Harrisbnrg naxt week? That depends," said Mayor Gourley yester day. "If the contributions for the old fashioned Fourth of July are not coming in pretty freely by Tuesday, I shall stay in this city and make a personal canvass of the wealthy men of Pittsburg." City Treasurer Denniston was out of the city yesterday and, therefore, -itis not known how much money has been sent in. Tbe Mayor will be back on Monday, and it is expected that when he opens his mail he will find quite a nice sum for the celebra tion fund. Chief Bigelow wants everyone to thor oughly enjoy themselves. He says: "Bring out baskets full of good things and have a picnic. The park is large enough to insure a comfortable degre'e of privacy for each party, and I will see that there is an abund ant supply of lemonade and ice water on hand. I ordered 25 swings to-day. Each one will accommodate four adults -or six to eight children. The roads through the park will be in good shape and parties can drive out the in their own conveyances." OUTING TOR ORPHANS. Actuated by a spirit of patriotism, the managers of the various flourishing orphan asylums in Allegheny are beginning to make active preparations for a glorious Fourth of July celebrations. Yesterday a round was made of the different institu tions, and the gratifying intelligence re ceived that the thousands of children in the care of these benevolent societies will have an opportunity to clebrate the anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in a way that will fill the hearts of the little ones with a keen feeling ot patriotic pride and instill in tbem some ideas of the great ness of our country. "We have been talking the matter over," said a matron at the Pittsburg and Alle gheny Protestant Orphans' Asylum last eveuing, "and discussed the feasibility of the proposition. It is an excellent plan. The children will be delighted. We have never had any special observance of the Fourth in previous years, excepting a pleasant time at home in the way 01 a treat. We would like very much to niake some de parture this year. TJNDEE DISCUSSION. "It has been suggested that we take the children to Schenley Park. That would be charming, but there is one objection. There would be trouble in getting the little ones there safely. Tne-only ones who can go, will be the older boys and girls. I think we will make provision that they may go. It is too early to say exactly what will be done, as no definite arrangements have been made as yet, but we will decide on some plan be fore Tuesday. It would be so nice to have a regular old fashioned celebration again. I expect the little children will he well pro vided tor at home in the way of a celebra tion. They will have all the ice cream they want, march aronnd the building, send up Mr. W. R. Thompson's balloons, and have a good time generally. "Our older friends who have gone out into the world, but not, forgotten their child hood days spent in the orphans' home, will return to" the bosom of the family on the Fonrth of July and unite with the house hold in a joliy celebration. We all intend to participate in the children's jubilee if the schools of the city succeed in making arrangements for that anniversary." OBSERVING THE FOURTH. Other asylums for orphan children report that they will observe tbe Fourth in a fitting manner," shooting firecrackers, etc, but no provision has been made so far in regard to going away from home to Schenley Parte or other localities. One of the managers of the Pittsburg and Allegheny Home for Friend less Children, on Washington Street, said yesterday, in reply to the reporter's query as to how they would celebrate the coming anniversary: "Our elegant flag, presented to ns by the G. A. R., will float in the breeze on tbe Fourth, and we intend to have a splendid time, but no special arrangements for a pub lic display have been made.
