sura for Mies An Invention to Convey Air, Food and Consolation to Men in the Bowels of the Earth. WEALTH AT THE EXPESSE OF LIFE. Eailroadere' Troubles ith Tramps TiYho Are Heading for the Large Eastern Cities. A FUTILE HTJKT FOE A WHITE EOBIN. FUtslnrj Hotel Ilea Complainlne ct the Pretest Dallntss of Business. The United Miners have a valuable leader in Secretary Robert Watchorn. So many distressing accidents like the one at Dunbar have happened in recent years that Mr. Watchorn is anxions that mine operators use all the necessary precautions to prevent them. He has worked hard to secure better legislation, but so far the corporations have ' been too much for him and his peaple. The other day at Dnnbar lie was reading an editorial in Tub Dispatch in which it was recommended to place in various parts of the mines canned cood, ship biscuit and food of that character to meet emergencies in case men were entombed. "Hike the spirit of the editorial," said Mr. Watchorn, "but the plan wouldn't work. I have a better scheme than that. Generally what miners need the mpst in such terrible dilemmas is air, and this food would not supply it. A LIFE SAVER. "There is a michine in use in some mines that is intended to meet all such cases. It costs money to put it in, but it will save life. One is now in operation in tho Morrell mine nearbv here, and an owner of the Dnnbar pit told me the other night that he would now give the price of the machine many times over if he only had one in his mine, and could get one tap from the imprisoned men. "The machine consists of a tube that is rnn into the mine. It is so arranged that the men inside, in a few minutes, can communi cate to the suiface in any language. The instructions are very simple, so many taps for air and so many for something else. Such a machine would supply 100 men with air for any length of time. Liquid Jood could be sent into thera through the pipe. By notifying the miner be could place his bucket under the other end and get all the milk, for example, he wanted. CONVEYING ENCOURAGEMENT. "But the greatest advantage is that you could talk to the imprisoned men and keep up their spirits, tell them just what is being done at the work of rescue, and no man can tell how highly these precious words would be prized by the poor fellows entombed tinder the earth. "We are too anxious these days to get rich, i and we even do it at the expense of life. ' Mines are worked to yield profit, not (or the safety of the employes, and all the life saving appliances are not introduced. ' simply because it may cost a few thousand t dollars. Wouldn't any operator gladly give the price when it is too late, and some of his men have been bnried alive?" TRAMPS OK TEE IKCEEASE. Special Aecnt Honchton nya Tbey Aro MovIok Eastward. "The hordes of tramps moving eastward are laacer than ever," said Special Agent Hajk&n Houghton, of the Pennsylvania road, yesterdav. "Only last Wednesday we stationed officers at New Florence, where all the trains stop for water, and we cap tured 36 riding on the cars. The county jails are full of these fellows. "Their Mecca in the summer is the large Eastern cities, and in the winter they mi grate South. Since the panic Etarted many honest men on the road looking for work the tramp has become a permanent institution, and as a class they are people who would not earn their bread under any conditions by the sweat of their brow. They are too lazy. There is no lack for employment these days, but the ranks of the tramp, instead of depleting, are increasing. Once in a while we find one among them who is looking for a job, but he is soon proselyted and becomes as bad as the rank and file. "They find it much easier to rob farm and springhouses and occasionally a store in a small town than to work for a living." HOTELS WAKT GUESTS. This Easiness Dm Its Doll Season T.Ike All Olbcrs. "This is the summer of our discontent," remarked a hotel clerk yesterday. "Every season has its dull period and ours is on now, and has come to stay until the middle of August. Only a month ago we were turning people away every night, but at present we have plenty of rooms as the reg ister will show. Th drummers are not moving in the hot weather, and the business man is away spending his vacation. Well, I guess we can stand it as well as the rest of thera." What the clerk had to say has been a fact for several weeks. None of the hotels are doing a rushing business, and toward the latter prt of the week the list of arrivals is painfnlly small. With the return of August trade begins to revive, and the festive com mercial man once more takes to the road. If his trade should be abolished, as some have suggested, what would the hotels and village maidens do? The latter would have nobody to flirt with. BUCKET SHOPS CLOSED UP. AdmnclDC Prices nnd Jot tbo Rrmovnl of the Ticker, Did tho Work. "What has been the effect o: the removal of the ticker?" was asked of John M. Oakley, the broker, yesterdiy. "My business has doubled," be replied, "but'I am not sure that it is dne to the re moval of the ticker. The bucket shops have been closed np, but it was the ad vance in prices that knocked them out rather than the loss of the quotations. Bnsidess on the Chicago mar ket has been verv active, with advancing prices. Very olten the market is lively on declining prices, bnt then we never make any money. "They are still very strict, however, about the quotations. There int a wheat ticker in the country. They might put them back now with safetv, though some bucket-shops Blight be etarted as a result." A DBTVE TO YELLOWSTONE." Dorr a Punr Could Enjoy Tlirmselvei and "re the National Fark. "We had a varied excursion over our road last summer to Yellowstone Park and we propose giving another one this year," spoke no Thomas S. Spear, of .the Union Pacific road, yesterday. "There were 30 in the partv, and they took two tix-horse Concord coaches and loaded the whole business at Omaha, and went by rail to Beaver Canon. There the horses were unloaded, and three days were spent in .driving across the country to Yellowstone -td5jlCThey staTert there eight days, and JHkhenwvisited Gaifield Beach. Ofetlen and .tbevbeautifnl Shoshone F.ills. In everv s place the horses and to coaches were taken out, and the crowd drove around seeing all the places of interest."' Tbe European Rash Over. J,1he rush to Europe ii OTer," eald Cap-1 tain J. J. McCormick yesterday, "and I am row turning my attention to the lake Busi ness. The crowds gone to Europe were never larger in my experience." CAUGHT UNDEK A SAFE DOOB. Tho Fato Which Hefell General Fnsieng-or .tejent Clark's Check Book. "My bank account has been squeezed oftenbut I don't think it was ever pinched quite so hard as at present." remarked Gen eral Passenger Agent A. E. Clark, of the Lake Erie road yesterday, as he pulled and grew red in the face at the big safe door which refused to open. A peculiar accident had happened. Mr. Clark was putting away his cheek-book, which contained a number that had been filled out when it fell, and the neavy safe door closed on it. There it was under the big iron plate acting as a wedge, and re fusing to let anybody in or out. Several strong men were tugging away at the door, but the little book held it moBt effectively. Fmallv Mr. Clark took a hatchet and cut off the projecting end of the book, and with a sharp wedge worked back the remainder of it under the door. Fortunately the book had been caught in such a manner that the checks were cut off near the stubs, and they were all right Afterward the door was easily opened. A "WHITE EOBIir. A Taxidermist aionrns tho Fact That He Couldn't Secure It. "A white robin is a rare avis, a freak, possibly. Did you ever see one?" asked an enthusiastic taxidermist yesterday. "Well, if you haven't, I have, and lam wofully disappointed that I didn't get it I was visiting in the country when I noticed the bird sitting in a tree. At first I thought it was a dove, but soon discovered that it was a robin, snowy white at that, and beau tiful. I was anxious to secure it, and more than once, with an old musket and a tanner's boy, I tried to kill it, bnt Jailed, The bird soon discovered mv intentions, for it disappeared, and, though I often watched for its coming, it came not, and I lost an addition to my collection that I would have prized highly;" GUAEDIAMS OF THE TEEASUEY Pass Upon a Number of Claims Made Upon tbo City. A meeting of the Finance Committee was held yesterday afternoon. The petition of Kobert S. Waters for the payment of $1,719 for extra work done on a distributing water main was referred to the special committee. Tbe petition of Alexander King for a re duction of water tax was relerred to the Chief of the Department of Public Works. A petition of P.

Denniston as City Treasurer for $100,000 and Bobert Ostermaier as Mayor's Clerk for $2,000 were approved. An ordinance giving any old soldier the right to post bills without paying for a license was laid over nntilthe author of the ordinance can explain just what is meant by it BUEE HE TTAT) BEAD IT. A Kew Citizen Mistakes tbe Declaration Tor the Constitution. Fifteen new citizens were created by Judge Collier yesterday. One of the appli cants, a German, when being examined, was asked if he had read tbe Constitution of this country. "I don't read much English," was the re- nlv. "Have yon ever read the Constitution, of the United States?" sternly repeated Judge Collier. "Oh, yes; I read it in the newspaper yes terday," was the answer. "How did yon like it?" "Oh, it was pretty good," remarked the applicant In the United States Court yesterday 12 were made citizens. H0N0EING HIS MEMORY. Councils nnd the Bar Association lo Take Action on Mr. Carnahnn's Dentil. The funeral of K. B. Carnahan, Esq., will take Dlace at 10 o'clock to-morrow morning. A special meeting of both branches of Coun cils has been called for at 9 A. si., and it is expected that most of the members will be present and attend the funeral services in a body. Mr. Carnahan was a member of Common Council, and of all the important committees. The death of Mr. Carnahan was an nounced in the County Courts yesterday, and an adjournment wasjordered out of re spect to his memory. The members of the Bar will hold a meeting to-morrow after noon in the Bar Association room in the Court House to take action on Mr. Carna han's death. IH THE WE0NG BOX. A Man Who Mistook a Brnlnshop for a linger Beer Saloon. A beery individual whose eves looked crossed and whose hat was perched over one ear, staggered into the business office of a local newspaper, Testerday morning, leaned over the counter, slapped down a nickel, and said, with a thick voice: "Beer." Then be rolledhis eyes around the desks. It dawned on him that he had made an error. He grabbed his nickel, and without venturing to trust his voice to utter "Excuse me," rolled out of the doorway. Grand Excursion to Yellowstone Nntlonal Patk and Other Western Resorts. The Union Pacific, "The Overland Eoute." proposes to run, on July 2G, a grand excursion from Omaha to Yellowstone National Park, Great Shoshone Falls, Idaho, Ogden, Salt Lake Citv, Garfield Beach, Denver, Clear Creek Canon, the famous Loop and other points of interest. The Union Pacific will furnish six-horse Concord coaches, which will carrv the party from Beaver Canon, Idaho, to and through Yellowstone National Park. These coaches will also be taken to Sho shone station, and used for the ride to Great Shoshone Falls. At each stopping place, such as Ogden, Salt Lake Citv, Cheyenne and Denver, the coaches will be unloaded, and the tourists conveyed ftom the depot to the hotels.

Pittsburg's Supply of the Lacteal Fluid Considered Above Par. CITT DAIRIES HEAT AND CLEAN. Some 2111k Thin and Suspiciously Blue, bnt as a General Thing IT DOESXT PAI TO ADDLTEEATE IT The question of the pnrity of Pittsburg's milk supply is a very important one more, perhaps, than that of the purity of booze, as the former is very largely a diet for the sick and infants, while the latter is not to nearly so great an extent. The daily milk bill of these cities is over $6,000, the consumption per diem being over 30,000 gallons. Fortunately Pittsburgers are in better shape than they are in Philadelphia, where the Board of Health has had much trouble to abate the superabundant aqueosity of the lacteal fluid. They have a city ordinance fixing the standard, but the Pittsburg Hoard of Health manages to give those who adulterate milk considerable trouble under the general act of Assembly governing the matter, and Mr. "W. F. McKelvy, Chief Clerk of the Bureau of Health, states that in answer to inquiries he in formed the health authorities of the manner in which the matter is rcgnlated here, where no trouble has been experienced in convicting violators o jf the law when they are caught. But there seems to be but little doubt that, notwithstanding all the precautions possible, there is a vast amount ot milk watered, as it only lies, generally speaking, between the retailer and con science, whether he will act crookedly or not. WOULD NOT PAT THEM. Mr. McKelvy states that at this season of the year it will not pay shippers to water milk, as they send more milk to tbe city than tbey are able to dispose of, anyhow; but he also says that many retailers only buy a fixed amount, and the supposition is that the amount is made sufficiently "flexi ble" to accommodate the increased demand at times. Unless each family buys a lac tometer for itself, its only safety lies in ex ercising discretion in dealing with honest people. It seems that the only comparatively safe plan to lollow in watering is to do it as the milk is measured out to customers, for not only is Milk and Meat Inspector Mc Cutcheon or Colonel Kilgore likely to drop around at any time and make a test, but the Health Bureau in spectors are occasionally directed to drop aronnd without warning, and take samples from scores of dealers in a few hours and bring them in for testing. Where, however, the dealer adulterates just as he sells he runs less risk, for not one in a thousand purchasers would think of having a test made. They might think the milk thin or blue, and scold about it, but ordi narily that would be the end of the matter, and dishonest dealers know it Once upon a time the authorities were overburdened with complaints that a cer tain dairyman who delivered from a wagon was watering his milk. At length Inspector Lindsey began taking a shot on the fly at the crook, and he scarce made a round that he was not hauled up short AIAVAXS STOOD THE TEST. AH in vain; his milk always stood the test, and the Inspector became ashamed to meet the suspect He came to grief one morning, however. A woman fit ting at a third-story window saw him empty water from a jug into his measure before putting the milk into it The action was performed in such a manner that a person standing on the ground would, ,not see it. That man was amy -roasted, out it isnt supposed that his fate deterred others from aftintr similarly. especially those who jean Supply an unex pected aemana-witnout ordering an extra supply. It is not believed that at present so much water masquerades as milk here as in some other cities. A few years ago a raid was made on some Massachusetts dealers, and of 1,170 samples tested 790, or 66 per cent, were found to have been watered, and in BuQalo four years ago 73 per cent of the milk supplied was found to be adulterated. It seems a pity that condemned milk should be msde a libation to appease the wrath of justice. It might be churned aud the butter sent to the poorhouse, in place of oleo, to an extent; or the city might operate a big Doggery in the suburbs and feed the milk and vegetables confiscated. The purity of milk is a matter of great im portance to infants, invalids and aged peo ple, as it frequently forms the main portion of their diet Babies olten die from lack of nutrition, owing to tbescoundrelismot some dealers. While the practice ot waterinc milk is no more dishonest than that of making cream-tartar 73 per cent gypsum, it is more reprehensible, on account of the greater mischief resulting. It is as heinous as the manufacture of medicines of insuffi cient strength. OSE OEEAT IMPROVEMENT. Pittsburg may be congratulated on a great improvement in one respect. Twenty years ago many of the city dairies were kept in a horribly filthy condition. The cows stood in filth, and even fed on still slops, etc, until thpir physical condition was calculated to start a pestilence among consumers. Since then the number of city dairies has diminished, but there are still a good many left. Tbey are, however, in a vastly superior condition to what they were formerly- When an inspector hnds a cow diseased, she must immediately go out of service, and if tbe case be bad, she is slaughtered at once, and her carcass sent to the schiudlery, so that the river gets no salvage. The Bureau ot Health cannot present crowding, and can not say how much space must be assigned to each cow, but it can force owners to keep stables clean, and after a kw weeks of sur veillance, and the loss of a cow or two, dis reputable proprietors find an exemplifica tion of the adage that "Honesty is the best policy." There is one way to insure abolutely fair dealing, and that is for each consumer to constitute himself a detective, and have milk tested lrom time to time. Reputable dealers will find it to their interest to give all the assistance in their power to their detection ot the cormorants who are willing to profit by killing off infants, invalids and the aged. Such dealers arc as infamous as the operations of graveyard insurance socie ties, infant insurance companies, or baby farms. Preparing; for n Good Time. Arrangements have been completed for the Orangemen's picnic at Alliqiuppa Grove next Saturday. G. F. McKeever has charge of the grounds and amusements. It is expected that at least 2,500 persons will be present Cruelty to a Cow.

Two of Mayor Wyman's policemen were arrested yesterday a'fternoon by Alderman Braun's constable, and gave ball lor their appearance to answer charges of cruelty to animals. The complainant is W. J. B. Thubron, the keeper or a livery stable on Overlook street, in the Second ward of Al legheny. He visited the Humane Society on Friday, and claimed that the two police men had driven two of his borses nearly to death. He said that last Tuesday night Officers James Davis and Felix McCuen hired two single buggies from him and went driving out the Perrysville road. They raced their horses, whipping them mercilessly, and brought them back to the stable in a sorry condition. McCuen had broken his buggy and had played his horse, but the animal which Davis drove was "deat beat," and Thubron thinks it may never recover from its severe overwork. Warrants lor Davis and McCuen were sworn out yesterday by Agent Berrymen, of the Humane Society. There will be a hear ing Tuesday forenoon. The officers are both old men on the Allegheny force. Davis is considered one of the best police men in that city. Chief Murphy said that he did not consider it his duty to reprimand or suspend men for what they did when off duty, unless they committed some criminal or absolutely disgraceful act A PAET OF BYGONE DAYS. Ono of the Features of tho Allegheny Semi centennial. Something novel and interesting will be introduced in the display ol the Allegheny fire department during the parade on the day of the semi-centennial celebration. The firemen will exhibit one of the old-style engines, operated by the primitive pump handle. They will pull it through the streets in the regulation old-fashioned way by means of a long rope, to which all bands'will take hold. Chief Jones said yesterday: "We are making arrangements to secure one of these old engines, and will have it in the proces sion with the new engines to show the great improvements made in the past years." HTDSEN IN A SPEAK-EASY. A Much-Wanted Man Hides From the Pollco for Five Weeks. Detective Coulson and Lieutenant Holmes succeeded in arresting John Sterling yester day afternoon, and in securing him a badly wanted man is run down. Sterling was prosecuted some time ago for selling liquor without license at No. 158 Water street, but he jumped his bail and for five weeks has managed to elnde arrest. Yesterday the officers learned that Sler line was in hiding in a room above a cooper shop on Water street, between Boss and Grant streets, and that he was earring on a profifible illicit liquor trade at that point. The officers visited the place where they found Sterling so thoroughly disguised as to be hardly recognizable. Sterling was committed to jail to await trial at court WOULDN'T STAY AT HOME. A Lady's Attempt to Ralso an Orphan Proves a Failure. Mrs. Bridget Little, who lives at No. 94 Seventh avenue, applied at the Humane Society yesterday to have that organization take charge ot a young girl, Susanna Mc Donald, who is 15 years old. Mrs. Little said that the girl was an orphan, and was taken by Mrs. Little out of St Paul's Orphan Asylum seven years ago. The lady has no daughters and expected to raise the girl as her own. She said that she could do nothing with Susanna, who would run ont at night and sometimes re main awav for days. Agent O'Brien ex pects to take action to-morrow to have Rev. Father Canevin appointed guardian for tbe girl. WALLACE NOT THOUGHT BULKING. The Clearfield Statesman Expects to Support the Ticket. Lewis McQuiston, of Butler, a Wallace delegate, returned from the East last even ing. He states that though he was for the Clearfield man, he will heartily support the ticket, as will every Democrat in the State. Mr. McQuiston denies that any of the dele gates were provoked, and threatened to bolt the nominees. "Wallace," he added, "in particular, will work for the ticket I went over to New York with him, and be did not talk to me as if be was sulking in bis tent He will turn in and wortc with the rest of us."
