. Greatest Closing-Day Ju

TALKS WITH THE BOYS MD GIRLS.
Eurprisinc Variety of Topics on Which
Hany Are as Well Posted as
Some of Their Elders.
POLITICS AND THE SUMMEK TACATIOS
Are Considered, With Favorite Boob and Childish
Fastimes.
The son's beaming face smiled down npon
25,000 pleasure seekers at the joyous chil
dren's jubilee held yesterday afternoon in
the Allegheny parks. The shouts and
laughter of the merry lads and lassies filled
the air with xnusio from noontide till golden
twilight crowned the happy day. It was a
glorious beginning of the summer vacation.
Many school boys rushed over the grounds,
full of the dash and spirit of young Amer
ica; pretty, charming girls, radiant .in
snowy white dresses, tripped across the
greensward like summer clouds, the daisy
blossoms kissing their dainty feet, while
the sunbeams chased their merry shadows.
Older "bovs and girls," who were nearing
the twilight of lite, were present, too, in
goodly numbers, and the jubilee earned
them back to their youthful days, when
their minds were stored with knowledge and
their hearts with truth.
The blithe birds sang sweetly along the
pathways where the thousands strayed,
driving away each care. vThe zephyrs,
breathing softly orer the Yelvety verdure,
seemed to woo the drooping flowers.
ALWAYS TO BE BEJIEMBEEED.
In the cool retreat of a leafy dell, secure
from summer's heat, a Dispatch reporter
detected Mr. James Young, president of the
Allegheny School Board. "This is fine,"
he said. "It is safe to say the school chil
dren and their parents will think of this
day with pleasure lor years to come."
At 4 o'clock the joyful peal of the Second
ward school house cave the signal for the
five bands to strike up their liveliest tunes.
Headed by the music the ten schools
inarched into the park. Every move and
octior betokened the tact and skill of the
teachers who marshaled the companies, con
sisting ot the High School, First, Second,
Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, Tenth
and Twelith wards.and the different charity
schools of Allegheny.
A ranee of large tents lined theXorth
avenue side, and instantly after the differ
ent schools reached these they broke ranks
in eager haste to plunge at once into sport,
while the various bands enlivened the occa
sion with choice selections.
The committee of arrangements happily
chose Joseph Craig as enstodiau of lost
children and of about 25 little ones who
went astray every one was returned cafe and
sound to their protectors. Cake, candy and
other sweetmeats that are strong messengers
in the prevailment of infant natures, were
ou supply in heavy stock, and served to
quiet the little pets that had gone astray
..until the fond mamma or anxious teacher
arrived on the scene.
HAD THEIE OWS "WAT.
Early in the week the exhilarating game
of "Copenhagen" had beenfrowned upon by"
the stern magnates of the law. The edict
went forth that there was to be no Copen
hagen on account of the boisterousness
which the game evoked in former years.
But young AUeghenians, as a general thing,
are not angels who silently move upon the
earth with ghostlike tread. They create
quite a rustle when there is a jubilee going
and a jubilee without Copenhagen is like a
bottle without wine, so they played that
rollicking game to their hearts' content.
Free root beer from Mr. S. L. Marshell,
the Allegheny merchant, flowed like a
sparkling river at the music pavilion,
while two tons of ice distributed through
out the grounds did service in cooling 45
tnbs of water, one of the accommodations
provided by Superintendent Hamilton.
The grand snecess of the jubilee reflected
great credit on the managers of the enter
prise, among whom are the members of the
Citizens' Committee, viz.: B. F. Bynd,
Chairman; H. D. Benwick, W. K. Ahlers,
C. A. 2f:cola, Boss Drum, Leonard "Wales,
T. M. Marshall, Jr., W. P. Bennett, B. B.
Scandrett, Theodore Myler and T. M.
Morris.
The Seventh ward school did not take
part, as it had a picnic yesterday at Zoller's
Grove, the Ninth ward at McKee's Bocks,
the Eleventh ward at Bellevue, and the
Thirteenth ward on Troy Hill.
SOME OF THEIR THOUGHTS.
A VARIETY OF INCLINATIONS OF THE
FUTURE VOTERS.
Same Ideas Mot Exactly Gleaned From
Their School Books Evidence That
Newspapers Are Included In Their
Reading Dinner What Some Girl Say.
Bev. Dr. "Woodburn, of the Board of
Controllers, rested his eyes on the gay
festivities, and remarked: "It is a delight
ful time for young and old. "What pleasura
ble emotions must fill the hearts of those
happy boys and girls." And a moment
later, when a Dispatch representative cir
culated among the merry groups, a clever
remark was dropped by Master Charley
Suodgrass when he was. asked what he
thought of the jubilees.
"Elegant!"
"Where will you spend your vacation?"
"I might spend mine in sandwiches at
either Atlantic City or the mountains."
"What will you be when yon are a man?"
"Bookkeeper, unless I get married and
strike a million."
If anybody essays to get ahead of an
Allegheny schoolboy he must be sharp as
the business end of a bumble bee. Im
pressed with this solemn fact, the inter
viewer j.roceeded with velvety touch. His
talks with other boys resulted as follows:
Benjamin Pritcbaro, aged 16, said: "Dela
mater Is no good. Quay may be good enough
in national politics, but he will run against cir
cumstances when he interferes with State
affairs, and his man Delaxnater will feel it.
Quay may be a Napoleon, but he will meet his
Waterloo."
rBEFERBED A BATH.
Byron Hill was singled out from a host of ad
miring companions, and talked as follows:
"They have given us tubs of ice water to drink,
but I would rather turn them into catatoriums,
and take a swim." Master Hill has an exten
sive acquaintance with the young ladles and
gentlemen who attend school in Allegbenv, and
introduced the reporter to Raymond Price,
with the information that he was the unrivaled
catcher of the "Beach Street Stars." "I go to
the Second ward school," said Raymond, "and
will take a vacation at S narrow Lake. Canada,
but leave the wealth of Allegheny behind me."
Leyden Ford, a High School sophomore, re
marked: "I will be off for Canada this summer
with the Iron City Club."
James Cree crossed The .Dispatch report
er's path at this stage, and unbosomed himself
tbnslv: " es, you behold in me one of the
leading spirits or the jubilee. I am going to
Cbamberslmrg to have some fun in the coin
try." At that moment Rlcbanl Bara walked
up. "I am interested mostly in tenuis," said
be. Miss May Reiner was then approached. "1
like to read storle," said this merry-maker.
Before the reporter bad taken another step
he found himself looking into as pretty a pair
of black eyes as ever smiled on man. The owner
was Miss Carrie Wilhelm. of the Sixth ward
school, and she said: "History Is my choice of
studies; I depisc mathematics."
THEEE of a kind.
Three school girls, Annie Glover, Sadie
Campbell and Nan Knox, all on the sunny side
of sweet 16, said they went to the Twentieth
ward school, and would be glad to take up the
books again when September rolled around.
'1 shall go to Valley Camp," said Walter
Orr, "and have bushels of fun." "Count me as
a stay-at-home," said Lvdia Ferree, and Maude
Cram answered: "I will spend my vacation at
Phillipston."
Smiling and full of business from bead to
foot. Principal J. M. Smith, of the Sixth ward
school, was buttonholed. "Everybody appears
to be almost in the seventh heaven of delight."
he observed, and directly pointed out Matter
H. H. Hughe, who said: "My father is a
druggist, but I don't think I will follow that
line of business."
Do you read dime novels!" was asked of
Georce Garman. "No, sir; nothing, like that
for me. I am 14. and weigh 130."
Said Amy Young: "I am 11 years old, and
like to read very much. The 'Elsie' books are
my favorites."
"Where are you going in vacation T" was the
Surry that brought the following from Charles
ennett'
'To Washington county."
'On a farm 7"
"You bet."
"Be a horny-handed tiller of the soilT"
"Yep."
Oue of the brightest scholars on the grounds
was Sidney Van Dusen, who spoke in thin
strain: "I expect to be a railroader. Will not
forget old friends when giving passss. I will
take a trip to Dakota, via Chicago, this sum
mer." "Give me a Hungarian rhapsody." said
Samuel Utobst. who is a musician. "The free
oigan recitals in Carnegie Hall are performed
by a skilirul musician."
President of Common Council Hunter's son,
James Hunter. Jr., was asked: "What is your
view of the political situation in Pennsylvania,
at present!"
"I would rather have Been Major Montooth
nomlrated."
"Whyr
"Because he is an Allegheny county man."
AS GOOD AS HE 13. .
Master Murrll Smith, son of the Principal,
was quizzed thusly: "Do you think you onght
to be an example for other boys?"
"No, sir."
"Whir nntr
"Because the rest are as good as I am." ,
"How will you SDend vacation?"
"Raking bav."
Miss Laura Wbittaker said: "I am too busr
having fun." Another vonng lady. Miss Annie
McCIellan, observed: "I admire Louisa Alcott's
stories and consider her the best." Miss Mag
gie Slattery was seen next: "Arithmetic is my
favorite branch. Will go to England during
vacation."
"I go to the Sixth ward school," said Claude
Krecsman. "Will stay at home this vacation.
I like to go to scbooL"
"Allegheny will be my pleasure resort," re
marked Callie Dnmer, and Albert Walker
said: "I am 12 years of age. Baseball is my
sport"
"Do you like to read the newspapers?" asked
the reporter of Miss Ada Pearce. By the way.
Ada pronounces tbe first a with the short
sound.
"Yes; the Farm Hill disaster is the first thing
I look at."
"What studies are you interested the most
in?"
"AIL"
Ada Hamilton, who prononnces her first
name with the long sound of a, said: "I am
going to Atlantic City."
William G. Stearn "said: "I expect to play
baseball some in my vacation at Chautauqua."
"I am eomg to .Lake Ontario," said William
Jordon
Hudson Williams Fishing is my forte.
"I read all tbe papers," said Jack Klelnman,
of tbe High School, while Charles Locke told
the reporter: "I am 14, and solid for Delamater."
"Geography interests me the most in school,"
remarked Harry Howard, of the Fourth ward.
"I like it because I want to be a civil engineer."
Said Clara Kennedy: "Arithmetic is my fa
vorite Dranch."
Mamie Sprague was asked where she would
spend the summer months: "Boston," was the
reply.
"I am going to Noplace," said M. 8. Connelly.
"Will stay in the city."
Miss Elizabeth Heppler answered: "I will go
to Chautauqua." Willie Pannier said: "Hike
school." George Blemming expressed this
opinion: "Arithmetic is one of the moat inter
esting studies." Charley Johnston, with a mis
cbievlous twinkle sparkling in bis bright eye,
said: "I like to play Copenhagen."
SHY LITTLE GIRLS.
THEY DON'T OBJECT TO COPENHAGEN,
THOUGH.
Slight Objection! to Notoriety How n Fa
vorite Children' Game la Played One
Benson for Iia Popularity Played Yes
terday Without Ropes.
A!channing group of little folks that
seemed to be enjoying themselves immense
ly attracted the attention of the reporter,
and, forthwith, a visit was paid to them.
They were circling around a tiny miss, in a
dainty blue frock, with joined hands when
the writer interrupted their sport, with the
following resnlt:
"Say, little folks, what are yon playing?"
"Copenhagen," came from a dozen little
throats.as tbe merry company gathered around
tbe questioner. "And what is yuur name?"
was tbe next query, and addressed to the little
miss in blue that had been In tbe
center of the nnc "Gertrude ,"
and as the pencil and paper came
into view, with professional rapidity, tbe
little owner of the name represented by tbe
dash, dashed away with a multitude of emo
tions commingled in her, "Oh, a newspaper
reporter." that for a moment disconcerted the
entire company of little ones. However, the
attraction was too strong, and childish curi
osity prevailed to such an extent that in a
mlnnte notonlythe original company returned,
but they were reinforced bya nnmber of bright
little playmates from neighboring groups.
WHY SHE OBJECTED.
"Ob.you won't put my name in tbe paper, will
you?" came in beseeching tones from the now
thoroughly "blue" little maiden, "Yes, do,"
exclaimed a half dozen voices, "and say she
was down in" the park, playing 'Copenhagen,'
too." "Oh I don't, please don't, for I don't go
to tbe public schools," continued the little lady,
her eyes filling with tears, "and I know papa
wouldn't like it. I'll tell you all about tbe
game, and everything yon want to know, if you
will only promise not to put my name in the
paper." Her real or Imaginary misery was so
great that it obtained tbe desired promise
and then the little mortal, on tbe theory that
one good turn deserved another, said: "Here's
Mary De Camp, too; you won't print her name,
either, will you? for ber grandfather is a Meth
odist minister."
"Don't have any of the girls' names; jnst the
boys'," came forth from several girlish voices,
whose owners, in spite of the fear they would
be immortalized in print, still remained sus
piciously near tbe evil genius wbo would do
the dreadful deed, instead of getting out of tbe
way. "Ob, psbaw! put tbe girls' names in too;
this is Jeanneite Grove, and this is Georgia
McFarland, and this is "
ALL TALK AT ONCE.
"Oh, boys, do hush!" "Oh. dear mel" and any
number of "ohs" from the girls interrnpted
the Introductions which the maidens contin
ued, all speaking at once, with various degrees
of emphasis and intonation. "This is Lynn
Thompson," said one bright-eyed little miss,
pointinc to a handsome little fellow, wbo tried
to deny his cognomen; "be sure you spell Lynn
with a f instead of an V " she continued, as
a wearer of pretty curls said, "Here's
Elmer Klaus and Willie Thompson,"
and while tbe reporter was trving
to acknowledge tbe hasty Introduction
to the bright little fellows thus brought into
prominence, another voice announced the pres
ence of Cliff Grace, and James Grove, and
William PfahL orPfhal, as one little miss de
clared, should be tbe way to spell it, "Put in
Harry Ferree," shouted a petite maiden
with pearly teeth; "be wasn't plaving
when you came up, but he started tbe
game; and this is Frank Ferree," continued
tbe little sneaker; "be kissed Gertrude three or
four " "Oh. nonsense, he did not," "What
do you mean?" "What a storvl were the re
marks that assailed tbe little maiden, who. In
her zeal to have frank properly introduced,
was telling tales ont of school. Frank, how
ever, was illing to bear testimony for himself,
and said: "Yes. I did kiss ber; that's in the game,
audit's an awful nice game. Didn't you ever
play It?" be continued, addressing the inquis
itive visitor, and when he received no as an
answer be expressed great sympathy for the
poor unfortunate, and volunteered tbe follow
ing information regarding the game, in which
he was frequently assisted, and guyed with
personal remarks about bis liking for the
game by his companions.
WITHOUT A BOFE.
"You see," be said, as be pushed his little
straw bat back from his attractive, manly face,
"we all take hold of hands, because tbe police
man wouldn't let us have a rope, and we have
the Copenhagen inside tbe ring. She, or he,
whichever it is, touches the band of some one
that they like, and then that one must run, and
Copenhagen tries to catch them, Jf Copen
hagen succeeds, then Copenhagen has tbe
privilege of kissing. Don't you see? We all
like to play it, an4 yon watch us now, or it will
soon be too dark." With that the ring was
quickly formed, and newspapers and newspaper
reporters sunk into oblivion in the face of
"such Xun."
TALK LIKEJJLD MEN.
SOME OLD HEADS FOUND ON YOUTHFUL
SHOULDERS.
Boya la Tbelr 'Teens Who Dlacasj Politic
and the Silver Bill Girl. Who Enaerly
. Read the Society Reports In tbe New.,
papers.
In another pari of the parks a group of
youthful politicians and newspaper readers
was encountered and considerable informa
tion elicited, as this will show:
George Robertson, aged 14. of room 23. Fifth
ward school, a very entertaining young man,
was alive to all tne questions of the day that
engross the minds of older persons. He peruses
tbe columns of the daily papers, be said, with
much interest, especially politics and baseball.
He thinks Delamater will not be elected if
Pattlson is nominated. "I think Mon
tooth should have been nominated," be said.
He will spend his summer months at Valley
Camp. A companion of bis, Rudolf Wagner,
aged 15, of the same school, also gave an inter
esting talk on public questions. He regretted
that school had closed down, and expressed a
preference for golnc to school rather than tak
ing a vacation. Frank Rust, a chum of the
other boys, surprised tbe reporter with the
ready opiuions he gave on questions of a pub
lic character. He will summer at Bedford.
Willie Statz, a playmate, aged 14,
did not evince the same interest
in public events as bis schoolfellows.
He will spend bis vacation with friends in
Illinois. Many more of this stamp of school
boy was encountered, totally Indifferent to tbe
great questions of the day. and who, in their
own words, said: "We don't care whether
school keeps or not."
Walter Gilleland, a 13-year-old of tbe Fifth
ward school, talked interestingly on
subjects which are thought to be far
beyond the average schoolboy's comprehension.
Master Gilleland is a bookworm, and takes a
surprising interest in politics. He said that
from what he bad read In the newspapers
Shires would be the candidate from the
Twenty-third district. Ashley Mabaffey, of
tbe same school, and a companion, concurred
in the opinion of young Gilleland. Hewlll
sdjourn at Cresson Springs during the warm
weather.
VEEY WELIi POSTED.
Willio Stertz, a bright yonng lad of room 23,
Fifth ward school, showed that be took more
than an ordinary interest in topics of
the day. He will spend his vacation at
Emsworth. Thomas Steck, a 14-year-old boy
talked like an old campaigner on the action
ot Thursday's convention at Harrisburg. He
was a Montooth "man." John Wallace, of
room 19 Fifth ward school, was another voune
gentleman wbo discussed great issues in a
manner that betokened be was acquainted
with the subjects on which he talked. Tbe
young man stated that above all his studies
history had tbe most fascination for him. He
said helonged for tbe time when school would
reopen. This young gentleman evidently has
given the silver bill some study from tbe way
he talked of it. He will summer at Greens
bnrg. George Ross was tbe next young gentleman
encountered. He talked of the Carnegie Li
brary. He said that some other rich man Tike
Mr. Carnegie should donate something toward
stocking the library, "for," he said, "what good
is tbe library, If there are no books?" Philson
Williams, of the Tenth ward school, also talked
in tbe same strain about tbe library. He will
go on a fishing expedition next week to Mor
gantown. Harry McCullough. of room 16, Sixth ward,
will summer at Slippery Rock until school re
opens. He said about tbe first thing he read
in tbe newspapers was tbe baseball column.
Master McCullough is said to be an expert at
bass catching. On bis coming visit to Slippery
Rock be will try bis luck with rod and reel.
Aleer Casselman. ago 16. of room 16, Sixth
ward, will .spend tbe two months' vacation at
Ssxonburg. Butler county, in company with
his sister, who is quite an artist. Young Cas
selman said that he had great admiration for
works of art.
Miss Maud Carson, aged 15. of room 13. Sixth
ward, will summer at Chautauqua Lake. W ben
asked what she first read in the newspapers,
unhesitatingly said, "the society columns."
Tbe young lady said that while sbe liked tbe
country ana the beautiful scenery, she would
await with pleasurable anticipation tbe open
ing ot school again. A young lady just past
her 11th birthday, was met next. She had
more womanly ideas about her than any
other young miss met with. Tbe first thing
that interested her in the newspapers, she
said, was tbe Divorce Court proceedings, and
next to that tbe accounts of society happen
ings took up her attention.
A POBWAED YOUNG MAN.
William Cressers, of the Second ward, a laa
of 15, was stopped as he was racing by over tbe
creen grass with another young man. He was
pointed out to the reporter, by one of the teach
ers, as her molt brilliant scholar. His views on
things in general bore out the teacher's
complimentary statement. The yonng man
said: "1 am glad school is over for
a time.' at least, but will tire of the country
before tbe reopening of school." He said he
read about politics and talked with a vim that
characterizes a ward heeler. "I am a Republi
can." he said, "but if I had a vote it would go
against Delamater." The young man thongbt
that Congress should take some action to bet
ter tbe business relations between the United
States and South America. He will
spend his vacation with relatives at
Emsworth.
Misses Annie Gormly, Ella Foster, Clara
Meyer, Sadie Gorman, Jean Wilson and Effie

tbe rustic log bouse. Tbey said they would

for reading society notes in the paper, and
were not given to things of a more conserva
tive nature.
JWilfred Graham, George Miller and Virgie
obnston were all elated over the prospective
visit to the seashore and mountains.
James A. Dodds, a very forward yonng man of
the Second ward school, showed himself
to be an able musical critic His opinion on
musical matters was sought after by many. He
said he liked to read tbe newspapers About
the most important event beingrecorded in tbe
papers, and which be perused with interest,
was tbe great Dunbar disaster. He also
thought the Carnegie library a boon to tbe pub
lic and an institution for tbe enlightenment of
tbe people. He will enjoy the refresbing
breezes of the mountains at Cresson Springs.
Miss Bayley, of tbe (Second ward school, a
young lady of 16 summers, was a whole
book ot information on theatricals, actors
and actresses. She preferred the standard
Shakesperian plays to tbe lighter dramas.
Kheltbouzht that tbe right spirit has possessed
Lthe people of wealth in donating libraries and
patKS lor lue Denent oi me pudiic, ana omer
philanthronists should keep tbe ball rolling.
Tbe yonng lady said sbe bad made no definite
arrangements for ber summer vacation.
A HASTINGS FOLLOWER.
Ralph Hill, of the Second ward, another
young chap with a political turn of mind, was
met and his views on tbe political situation re
quested. He said: "If I was old enough to
vote I would vote against Delamater. From
the good work done at Johnstown by General
Hastings, I think be should have been nom
inated." The young man evidently gave
the gist of bis father's opinion on the
gubernatorial election. Master Hill will so
journ at the beautiful town of Galesburg in
Illinois. . .. . ... c. ..
Miss Ida Benney, a young lady of tbe Sixth
ward school, will spend tbe summer montbs in

dressed in white and with a very dignified
mien, said that she gave society events a glance
in tbe papers. Mollio McCormick. Edna
Painter and Malzel Lvncb, all of the Fifth
ward school, will visit Atlantic City.

SETTLED FOR GOOD.
John Phillips' Appeal Dismissed by
. of L. General Executives.
CIRCULARS SENT TO WASHINGTON.
Objections to Extras in the Iron Scale, but
It Will be Signed.
OTHER PITDI INDUSTRIAL ITEMS
Master Workman Joseph L. Evans, of
D. A. No. 3, Knights of Labor, yesterday
received a letter frbm John W. Hayes, Gen
eral Secretary of the order, notifying him
of the final expulsion of John Phillips from
the Knights of Labor. This settles the case
as far as the order is concerned, but it is
stated upon the' best of authority that sev
eral lawsuits will be the result of the
trouble. Mr. Phillips' friends say his ene
mies have had their inning and he now
proposes to have bis.
It will be remembered that several months'
ago a resolution was introduced into L. A.
300, Window Glass Workers, asking for the
expulsion of Mr. Phillips on accouut of the
part the latter took in the Central Trades
Council investigation of the Jeannette labor
importation case. He testified against Pres
ident Campbell and other officers of the
association, and it was alleged his testimony
was damaging to the organization. His
case came before the Atlanta General As
sembly of the Knights of Labor, and he
made an appeal to the General Executive
Board. The latter body heard the appeal,
and, after debating the matter, concluded
not to interfere lurther, and allow the case
to stand as it was. This meant that Phillips
was expelled irom the organization forgood,
and as long as the' window glassworkers re
main in the Knights of Labor he cannot be
a member of the association. Consequently
he cannot find a position at his trade in any
glass factory in the United States, on ac
count of every one of them working under
union rules.
CANNOT HELP HIM.
Not being a member of the association
Phillips cannot show a clearance card, and
will be unable to get work. Tn his letter
yesterday, General Secretary Hayes said
Phillips'was beyond the pale of the order
and they could nothing for bim.
The Central Trades Council will meet to
night and action will be taken on the Jean
nette case. The committee is waiting to
hear testimony from District Attorney Lyon
in regard to statements made to him about
Homer L. McGaw and James Campbell. A
motion will be madeto allow Mr. McGaw to
give his side of the case. He claimed that
the investigation is one-sided and says he
has had no show.
A special from Washington last night
says: "Several members of the House of
Representatives to-day received copies of
the following resolutions adopted at a re
cent meeting of Local Assembly 300, of
Pittsburg:
At a regular meeting of the Window Glass
Workers' Association. L. A. 300, Knights of
Labor, the following preamble and resolutions
were adopted by a unanimous vote:
Whereas, By tbe urgent request of the
members of this association who were most
directly interested in tbe issue, tbe much
talked of and little understood matter of tbe
charges against some of the officers of tbe as
sembly and others, of having violated the laws
of tbe United States by bringing foreign
laborers into this country under contract, was

In the United States Court in Pittsburg, Pa.,
May 15, 1890, and after a full and fair exposure
of all the facts and circumstances surrounding
the case, when all the knowledge of our offi

DISCUSSING THE SCALE.
It Will be Signed by tho Iron Manufacturers
Without Any Trouble.
Another secret conference ol the iron
manufacturers and workers' committees was
held yesterday for the purpose of consider
ing the new scale. It was so secret that not
even the place of meeting was given out,
though-why the secrecy nobody could find
out.
The conference was held in G. A. E.
Hall, over, the Citizens' Insurance- Com
pany's office, on Fourth avenue. Secretary
Martin, of the Amalgamated Association,
who has been ill, was present, much to the
delight of the other members of the confer
ence committee and the manufacturers. The
latter are sorry Mr. Martin is not to con
tinue as a member of the conference com
mittee, as they have great respect for his
conservative views. After the preliminary
skirmishing always incident to the meet
ings, the ball was opened by the manufact
urers objecting to manv more ex
tras in tbe scale. Each department
was taken up in turn and the new additions
carefully considered. The first kick was
made in tbe guide, ten inch, hoop and cot
ton tie mills, where it has been proposed to
change the present system of paying the
hands. Tbe roller pays the heaters and the
roughers and catchers, and it has been pro
posed to change this so as to have them paid
by the firni instead of by the roller. In
making the change it was thought the
trouble between the rollers and the roughers
and catchers would be avoided. If the
wages of the latter were to be advanced the
increase would come from the firm and not
from the rollers, as the roughers proposed.
A kick was also made in tbe rates and about
everything in the notes, and about every
thing in the way of an addition was objected
to. After the meeting B. F. Jones said:
"We will meet .again to-morrow and I
think the scales will be signed by evening.
There is no hitch, but we object to many of
the extras in the scale, and" think they will
be fixed to suit the manufacturers. The
scale will be signed before the old one ex
pireson Monday night next and there will
not be any shutdown. We will meet again
to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock."
The Amalgamated committee met after
supper in caucus and debated the changes
wanted by tbe manufacturers.
Another Bean Signed.
President Weihe, of the Amalgamated
Association, last evening received a telegram
to the effect that the Ohio Falls Iron Com
pany, oi New Albany, Ind., had signed the
scale. This is the second firm to do the act
this year.
QUITE A SURPRISE.
Returns From Country Districts Show a
Greatly Increased Population In the
County Flttsbnrj-. Allegheny and Brad
dock to be Finished by Monday.
Census Supervisor Oliver still sticks to
his estimate of 240,000 for the city of Pitts
burg, but if the city's returns are not as
large as many hoped for the total popula
tion of the county is likely to prove a start
ling surprise. When the last census was
taken Wilkins township had a population
of 2,100. Since then Braddock township
and part of Sterrett township have been
erected out of Wilkins, and Wilkinsburg,
Swissvale and Edgeworth have become
boroughs, and are taken, out of tbe census
district of Wilkins township. Yet, in spite
of all this, Enumerator William P. De
laney made a return of 2,400 population in
tbe old township. It is estimated that the
population within the old township lines
amounts to 15,000, an increase of 700 per
cent since 1880.
Mr. Oliver is notniggardly with his praise
for good work, and yesterday sent Mr.
Delaney the following:
Mr. W. P. Delaney has just closed up bis
work as enumerator for Wilkins township, and
I am glad to be able to certify that he has done
it to mv entire satisfaction. He has returned
a larger number of Inhabitants for the town
ship than my most liberal calculations called
for, aud his work is very well done.
George r. Oliver.
James T. Smith, of the Third district of
the Thirteenth ward, has returned 3,264
names, which is the longest lit compiled by
any one enumerator. This is the most popu
lous section in the Ninth census district.
Mr. Oliver hopes that the returns for
Pittsbnrg. Allegheny and Braddock will be
complete by Monday.
AGAINST AN ALDEEMAN.
Warrants Sworn Out for Samuel F. Kerr
and E. Z. Wnlnnrrfgbt, for Asianlt.
Arising out of the trouble at the Fifteenth
ward school children's jubilee, at Hulton,
on Thursday last, Detective Allen and the
constable of Hulton have entered charges of
assault and battery against Alderman Sam.
F. Kerr, Messrs. E. Z. Wainwright, of the
Winterton Brewing Co.; Edward Daub and
E. J. Lewis. The charges were entered before
'Squire Hougthelin, of Hulton, and warrants
were issued, but had not arrived last
evening.
It is said that no such men as Daub or
Lewis were at the jubilee. As an offset to
these suits, Ed Irwin, the Hulton boy who
started the trouble by running away with
the Brankner baseball club, has been
charged with larceny be ore Alderman Sam
F. Kerr, of the Fiiteenth ward. He was
arrested yesterday, but his father entered
bail for his appearance at Alderman Kerr's
office next Monday morning.
A CONTAGIOUS Ex-ATffPp?.
Evnni City Preparing to Celebrate an Old

Mayor Gourley's example has proven
contagious. When the people ol Evans

generally made np a purse of $500 to pay for
red fire, music and bunting, aud ex-Mayor
Douclass and Mr. Robert Martin came to
Pittsburg yesterday and contracted for the
fireworks.
There will bo a parade in Evans City ou
the Fourth, in which the States will be
represented by the belles of the city. Every
body will go to the grove, where the Declar
ation of Independence will be read by Prof.
Kinsman, lunch baskets will be opened,
and an al fresco picnic will be held in
which the entire town will participate.

LOYE AND SMALLPOX.
An Italian's Desperate Attempts to
Leave the Pest Honse
TO WIN A F0RTUBE AND A BRIDE.
One Thousand Ike Keeps Two Loving
Hearts Apart.
A B0HANCE OP TWO HEHISP1IEEES
Superintendent- Baker, of the Bureau of
Health, said last night that Antonio Ansue
lino, the Italian who was taken to the pest
house about ten days ago with the smallpox,
willprobably be discharged as cured during
the coming week, as his attack was a com
paratively light one. .
Antonio has been in this country but five
weeks, and appears to be a one-idead man.
Bis hobby, however, is a popular one he
wants to make money. He insists that he
is in perfectly good health, and demands
that he be released in order that he may go
to work and earn tbe wealth that he so
earnestly desires. He has made several
attempts to escape from the pest ho use,
and the vigilance of the hospital authorities
is constantly excited to prevent the man
getting away and spreading the disease.
Antonio on one occasion made a desperate
attempt to begin tbe world anew, as he en
tered it, penniless and in rather decollette
costume, but he was foiled in this by the
attendants, and reluctantly returned to L'i
couch.
WHY HE TVANtS MONET.
The persistence of the man awakened the
admiration and curiosity of the attendants,
and they questioned him about his eager
ness to become a capitalist. Antonio is not
communicative. He feels that he is in a
strange country, and he does not talk much
of personal matters, but his story was finally
extracted from him.
Antonio Ansuelino comes from the in
terior of Italy; in fact, it is hinted that in
the mountains near by his native village,
brigandage is a recognized industry. An
tonio, however, was not seduced by the
prospect of rapid gains at the small outlay
of a sum sufficient to buy a knife and gun.
He had seen tbe gendarmes bring knights of
the road iuto town, and had seensomerather
hasty, although legal, executions take place.
The chances for winning in this gamp, he
conclnded, were largely against the player.
Antonio, nevertheless, wanted money. In
fact, he needed 1,000 lire, which would cor
respond to 5200 of American money. He
required this sum to enable him to marry
Giula, the pretty 15-year-old daughter of a
small farmer. In Italy marriages de con
venances are everyday occurrences, the sys
tem pervading all classes of society.
Giula's parents would give their daughter
a dowry, but they would not allow her to
marry a man who could not duplicate
Giula'a dot
THE CETJEIi PARENTS.
The poor lover would have gladly ac
cepted Giula without her dowry, bnt her
parents had a .position to maintain, and
they were firm in tbeir proposition Giula
and 1,000 lires to any man with 1,000 lires
who pleased Giula. The lovers discussed
the subject from every possible point of
view, but they saw no way out of tbeir diffi
culty. Finally Antonio was struck by a
happy thought He would go to America,
Where the streets were paved with gold and
money was a burden to the average citizen,
and there obtain the much-needed 1,000 lire.
Antonia started for America and landed
in New York. There he failed to find the
colden streets, but he found a number ot
people who were busily engaged in chasing
the elusive dollar. He wandered through
the country, meeting with but little success
in his search' ior work, and finally landed
jn Pittsburg, having acquired nothing but
a case of smallpox. He is now fearfnl that
while he is, as be feels, wasting his time in
a hospital, some other man with 1,000 lire
may be making inroads into the affections
of Giula.
Do Yon Want a Good Piano or Organ for
Little IHoncjf
If you do go to Hamilton's, 91 and 93
Fifth avenue, and he will convince you that
he can and does sell at lower rates than you
can buy the same quality of goods else
where. Many have been informed that at
Hamilton's you must pay for the name of
their high-grade goods. If you will call
and see him yon will find out that he
charges no more for his thoroughly well
known high-grade goods than yon must
pay ior cheap unknown instruments with
no record for tone or durability. In buying
a piano you want a sweet, pleasing tone,
and then you want that tone to be lasting.
Mr. Hamilton has dealt in the pianos and
organs he offers you for the last 18 or 20
years, with an unbroken record of success.
Why? Because he and you can turn to
your neighbor and find pianos and organs
sold by bim to them years ago still giving
every satisfaction, and showing scarcely any
wear or failure; because he sells at the low
est possible margin and on the easiest terms;
because every instrument is lully warranted,
and must do just as represented. To those
who are abont to buy we say go and see.
You will save money by purchasing an in
strument at Hamilton's.

A TERRIBLE SENSATION
EXPERIENCED BY CITY OFFICIALS WHILE
EXPERIMENTING WITH FIREWORKS.
Preparation! for Independence Say Going
Alons Ulubt Merrily No Free Feed to
be Provided Good Music Secured
Bringing In the Subscriptions.
Mayor Gourley and Chief Bigelow, with
a few friends, went out to Herron Hill
Park yesterday to experiment with day
light fireworks for the Fourth. There was
no expert along, and there was considerable
hesitation in touching off the blamed things.
After several attempts one ol the bombs was
'set off. There was a moment's pause of ex
pectancy followed by a report, the party
scattered, with the exception of one man
who was rooted to his position by terror, and
the sky was filled with a tissue paper zoo.
No one was hurt, but a yellow dog who had
joined the party, was mysteriously missing.
Four hundred dollars' worth of these fire
works and 200 worth of balloons and flags
have been ordered.
Mayor Gourley and Chiefs Brown and
Bigelow have talked tbe matter over and de
cided that the original purpose to furnish
free lemonade aud sandwiches on tbe
grounds will be impracticable. Belresh
ments will be supplied on the ground, but
under other arrangements. Instead of
lemonade ice water will be furnished. The
city's big snrinkling cart will be loaded
with ice water and served free in all parts of
the park.
PLENTY OP MUSIC.
The Great Western Band has been en
gaged for the day, and will divide tbe time
with the Select Knights' Band at $300 for
the day's services. Arrangements are being
made to enlist several of tbe leading sing
ing societies of the city, so that a grand
chorus of from 500 to 1,000 voices can be
provided to sing the national anthem and
patriotic airs.
Several merry-go-rounds will be located
in tbe park for the day, and if it can be ar
ranged the children will be allowed to use
them free. Nine-five big 8 wings are also
being put up in various Sparta of tbe park.
Several other plans are being considered for
the amusement of the youngand old, and
will be announced as they are adopted. A
gentleman oi experience is at work on the
preparation of the entire day's programme,
and it will be published in to-morrow morn
ing's papers.
HURRYING UP SUBSCRIPTIONS.
It is estimated that the expenses will
amount to about $1,900, and all subscription
lists must be turned in to-day. Treasurer
Denniston has received $1,471, and about
$100 more is ready to be turned in. The sub
