Betira of Superintendent of Schools
George J. Luckey, "With
TOIKTEES ON EDEOPEAK LIFE.
IrefielHiea Clamorinz tar the Says of the
Empire, While
THE WOELD'S FAIR IS KOT IK IT
Back again from foreign lands, Superin
tendent of Schools Luckey was among his
Pittsburg friends again last evening, all
Emiles, and, if possible, a better American
than ever. Mr. E. J. "Wilson, who ac
companied Mr. Lackey on the European
tour, also returned yesterday morning.
Both gentlemen accompanied the excursion
of sxbool teachers to Europe.
One of Mr. Lackey's acquisitions was an
Irish blackthorn "shillalhh," which he pre
sented to Secretary Reisfar. Another
addition is one which the Superintendent
Joes not propose to give to any one, and
upon which he depends strongly to carry
indelible surprise to his friends. It is a
luxuriant black tnnstache,grown in Ireland,
also, and is what Secretary Beisfar, who
has seen it, calls a beauty.
"Our excursion party," said Superinten
dent Luckey, "kept together until we
reached Paris, when we separated, one part
starting off for a trip through Bel
gium, Germany and other places, while the
rest of the teachers turned their attention to
Italy and Southern Europe. The two sec
tions had most enjoyable trips. They have
left for home, and will arrive here next
Thursday.
THE PIEST IN FIFTEEN TEABS.
"It was 15 years since I was across the
pond last, but no striking changes had oc
curred in that time, save France. There we
met Parisians without number who were
deploring the present Republican mode of
government, and clamoring tor the Empire.
English-speaking hotel clerks and cabmen
told us of the great complaints made by many
of the people of Paris against the Republic
They longed for the days of Napoleon, and
expressed the vain wish that he should have
lived 20 years longer. The cry of hard
times was on the lips of the shopkeepers and
others. In the time of the Empire all kings
and queens, with their great number of fol
lowers, made it a point to Visit Paris, and
while there they lived in luxury. This,
naturally, was a boon to the hotel
keepers, shop merchants, cabmen
and a host of tradesmen who
thrived on the lavish expenditures of roy
alty. All this is now changed since the
Republic has been instituted. Royalty no
longer showers gold upon the heads of the
Parisians. As a consequence they oppose
the new form of .government, and clamor
for the Empire.
"Outside of the city of Paris we
found just the opposite state of
affairs. Frenchmen residing in the rural
districts asserted that they were enjoying
unparalleled prosperity, and appeared
greatly satisfied with Republican rule. The
discontented spirits were confined to the
metropolis.
"As usual, the Paritians were as utterly
regardless of the meaning of the word rest
on the Sabbath as in the days of yore.
Business never stopped a moment on Sun
day, and you couldn't tell it from any other
day. At one place I saw workmen build
ing a church on Snnday. In England it
was just the contrary. Sabbath breakers
were few.
COULDN'T ACCOMMODATE THEM.
"Elevators at the Eiffel tower coula
hardly accommodate the vast number of
tourists from all parts who continue to visit
it day after day. I did not see anything of
the names of the workmen who, it is re
ported, were promised by Mr. Eiflel to have
their names carved on the tower if they
brought the work to successful completion.
"I spent much of my time on the British
Isles. The contrast between the English
soldiery and the French militia is very
marked. The Britishers are stalwart, while
the picayune Frenchmen seem mere boys.
It is proverbial to rain in Ireland and Scot
land at this season of the year, but singu
larly enough, we foundratherdrydays while
doing those countries, though I assure
you that the attractions were not dry.
"Southern Ireland still favored home
rule, while their northern neighbors, who
received loans from the Government to pay
for their land, naturally were friendly to
the London rule. The spirit of independ
ence that is rapidly growing in the hearts
of Irishmen is augmented by their liberty-
breathing countrymen, wno spend a part ot
their lives in America and return to Ire
land with deep-rooted sentiments in the
direction of local government.
"While going through the town of Lis
burn I asked a native how large the place
ws, but he hadn't the slightest idea of the
population, so I thought of arriving at the
figures by asking him how many churches
the town'had. 'One Catholic,' he said, 'two
Protestants, and a lot of dum little meeting
houses.' That was all the satisfaction I got.
"We stopped at a small two-story school
house, decorated with a sign in front
reading, 'National School. The build
ing was made of stone, as are the great ma
jority of Irish houses.
ONE OF THE SCHOOLS.
"School was out, but we found the teacher
upstairs in the schoolroom. The lower
apartment was used for housekeeping bvthe
teacher's family. It was not a private insti
tution, but a public school. About all the
schools in Europe were closed for vacation,
and we had no opportunities for examining
the foreign edncational systems.
"Everything over there in the line of food
and so on is dearer than in the United
Sutes, with the solitary exception of cloth
ing. English woolen'suits cost less than
one-half the price of the same kind oi
goods in this country. "We found all the
workingmen struggling along op a diet of
potatoes, with a change to meat about once
a week. 'If we had told them that the
American workingman sees meat every day
they would have doubted the statement
"The subjects or paramount importance
that occupv the minds of Europeans at pres
ent are difficult to ascertain it one does cot
understand the native languages, but from
the contents of the newspapers it is evident
that the coming "World's Fair in Chicago is
little thought of, owing to the fact that
there are no hustling American newspapers
over' there to stir them up.
THINK "WE'BE TEEEOES.
"Foreign journals seem to find very little
virtue in the United States, and they take
every opportunity to say a bad word for our
country. For instance, their highly col
ored accounts of the cyclones and tornadoes
in this country impress the mind of the for
eigner with the idea that this is a land of
terrors.
"On coming home I was surprised to see
the profound suggestion to change the school
children's Widay on Saturday to Monday.
That niav possess a certain novelty, but it is
decidedly out of place. Saturday id the ac
cepted day all over the country, and it cer
tainly has proven satisfactory to Pittsburg.
As to the injuries to children arisingfrom low
desks in the schoolrooms, I agree that every
precaution should be taken to care for the
welfare of the pupils. In some instances it
may be the case that seats are not properly
adapted to the size and age of the pupils,
but everything will be done to promote the
comlort of the school children."

VERY NARROW ESCAPE OF FOUR BRIDGE
BUILDERS.
Forced to Fall Into the Blonoigabela From
the Smltbfleld Street Brldee The Acci
dent Caneed br the Smokestacks of a
Panlnff Steamboat.
"What might have resulted in a serious
accident occurred yesterday afternoon to
some workmen engaged on building the ex
tension to the Smithfield street bridge.
"While the James G. Blaine was pass
ing under the 'bridge, on her way
up, her smokestacks came in con
tact with a platform which swung from
the bottom of the bridge. Captain Cock
saw that the boat must strike the platlorm,
and called to the pilot to sound the whistle.
The men realized their dangerous position
and got off the platform and caught hold of
an iron bar which runs from pier to pier
not a moment too soon, as the smokestack of
the Blaine struck the obstruction as the last
man steppedioff the platform. One of the
steamer's stacks was broken in two by the.
force of the" collision, and the swinging
platform snapped from its fastenings . and
fell to the water. s
The four men remained banging by their
hands, their only means of rescue being to
let go of the stringer and drop to the water
below, nearly 100 feet Several men were
attracted to'the spot, and pushed out skiffs
to rescue them.
Finally one of the four was compelled to
relinquish his hold, through exhaustion,
failing into the water. He disappeared be
neath the water, but arose again and tried
to swim to the skiff, but before reaching it
the little strength which he retained gave
out and he sank. He arose for the second
time, and the occupants of the skiff suc
ceeded in catching hold of him and pulling
him into the boat
The poor fellow became unconscious, but
the rescuers could not give their attention
to him, as the other three workmen were
still hanging to the iron bar. All three
held on for dear life for fully 10 minutes,
when they could no longer retain their
grasp, and one by one they fell to the
water, and were rescned by the men in the
skiff, who were by this time reinforced by
another boat from the shore. The first man
who fell soon recovered, and was taken
ashore, where all three were given medical
attention on the Brownsville wharfboat
After resting awhile they were sufficiently
strong epough to resume work again. Dur
ing the excitement a large crowd gathered
on the shore, and shouted at the men
to do different things, which badly
disconcerted them, and if they conld have
held to their positions a few moments longer
they wonld have been rescned without get
ting a ducking. The workmen would not
give their names, but say it was their own
fault, as they should not have blocked the
channel with the ladder.
KATOE G0UELEY AGAINST IT.
He Sara the Duqnesne Company Cannot
- Afford to Sell Out.
In speaking yesterday of the proposed
deal between the Pittsburg and Duquesne
Traction Companies, Mayor Gourley said:
"I do not think the Duquesne Company can
afford to sell out to a rival or competing
line. Of course the company can turn the
road over to the Philadelphia syndicate if it
wishes, but the question of the rights of the
people is involved and I do not think it can
be overlooked for any amoun" of money the
Pittsburg company wonld be willing to pay
for the electric road. "When the Duquesne
company was given the right to lay tracks
on certain streets the franchise carried with
it an understanding that the road would be
constructed and the people given the benefit
of competition.
"The natural growth of the cjty necessi
tates greater transportation facilities, and on
this account there should be another road
to the East End. If the Duquesne sold out
to the Pittsburg company the people wonld
set up a howl of indignation, which could
not be ignored. On account of the Du
quesne company being composed exclusive
ly of Pittsburgers, I think it more likely that
if any deal is made the Philadelphia people
will be bought out"
It is expected the new road will be com
pleted and cars running by October 18, if
the work proceeds until finished. Eighteen
miles of track have been laid so far.
More Music lo the Park,
The Cathedral Band will make its second
appearance this season in Allegheny park,
to-morrow evening, and will give one of its
delightful concerts. Prof. Bohr, director of
the band, after an absence of four months in
Europe, is home, and will be on hand to
direct the band in his usual inimitable
style.

A SHORTAGE OF ICE.
Great Trouble Experienced in Getting
a Few Cents' Worth a Day.
THE DEALERS TEEY INDEPENDENT
They Charge What They Please and Deliver
Where They Choose.
MOT TOO LATE 1ET FOE HEW PLAMS
It is some time yet before the iceman will
take off his hat to the plumber, and dealers
in the congealed product continue to have
their .hands full. While natural frozen
water is still in demand the artificial article
is destined soon to have the call. New man
ufactories are springing up every now and
then in anticipation of the coming rush for
the ammonia ice, and irom present indica
tions the day is not far off when ice famines
will be a thing of the past
Just at present, however, the demand ex
ceeds the supply, as an Alleghenian discov
ered yesterday, when his regular iceman
failed to call, and he began to telephone for
a new man. He found not one firm who
wasn't too independent to respond to his"
call. One had "no ice to spare," another
had "no wagon delivery in that part of the
city," and a third, fourth and filth had other
excuses.
One discovery was made, though. It is
that, late in the season as it is, the call for
ice where there is none has caused the build
ing of another new artificial ice factory or
works. In a short time the engines of the
new Arctic Ice Manfacturiag Company, on
South avenue, Allegheny, will set its ma
chinery in motion, and, from that moment
the works will be in operation day and
night week day and Sunday, year in and
year out, without a stop.
MAKING A LATE STAET.
A force of workmen was busily engaged
yesterday in putting things in shape. It
will require several weeks of work before all
is in readiness. Part of the freezing appar
ratus is already completed, and ice is now
being made, but the first products do not
foot-up to anything like the capacity of the
plant, which, when finished, will run up as
high as 120 tons daily. The company fig
ured on having everything in full blast by
the middle of this summer, but work on the,
pipes upset the calculations of the builders,
and caused the present delay.
The square-shaped cakes of ice turned out
by this lactory are all of the Bame size, and
measure 44 inches in length, 18 In width
and 11 inches in thickness. The purity of
artificial ice has been questioned, and, in
speaking of this, Mr. W. F. Melhuist,
manager of the Arctic Company, yesterday
said:
' "People used to think that microbes of
disease were killed by freezing. They
thought that it was safe to use ice. taken
from rivers and ponds that were poisoned by
sewage, because they believed all the im-,
pure particles were destroyed by congela
tion. That notion is no longer prevalent
Instead, it is now stated that much of the
sickness in this country is due to the con
sumption of natural ice water.
"The deadly germs ot typnoid and of
other dangerous maladies must be destroyed
by boiling or distilling the water before
freezing it into ice. That is exactly what is
done in the making ot artificial it. The
water here is drawn from artesian wells,
sunk on the spot The water passes into
boilers, where it roes through the boiling
process and becomes a vapor.v If there are
any impnrities they are removed by the
condensation. After this the water is rnn
into a large tank half filled with gravel and
charcoal, and through which it is slowly
filtered and then rnn into the cans ready to
be frozen.
SOMETHING ABOUT LEAKAGE.
"Some thins: that the ammonia in the
pipes used in the freezing process escape and
poisons the water, but the fact is, regular
ammonia joints, as they are called, are used
in connecting the pipes. They are much
tighter than either steam or gas joints, and
prevent any of the ammonli escaping.
"When you take into account the great
expense attached to the shipping of natnral
ice from far-off points, the middlemen's
profits and the enormous shrinkage, all of
whic i enhances the price to the consumer
just so much, it is apparent to everyone that
artificial ice manufactured on the spot can
be put on the market at lower rates,
although it is doubtful whether it can be
made on a large scale for less than $1 a ton,
as has been asserted.
"While prices have not been fixed with
any degree of certainty, customers are not
slow in placing their orders, and every in
dication points to a further increase in the
wonderfnl development of the ice trade that
has been made since the pioneer, William
Tudor, of Boston, shipped the first cargo of
ice to Martinique in 1805. The outlook for
exportation is not so hopeful. At one time
American ice was sent to Eogland, but
Norway now monopolizes the ice market of
the Old World. It is said that Norwegian
ice is superior in staying powers to the
manufactured product"
THEY WILL NOT D0WS.
Superintendent BIcKnisbt to Face
Hi
Accuser To-Morrow Morning;.
Like Banquo's ghost, the charges against
Superintendent James McKnight, of Schen
ley Park, for refusing to give employment
to American citizens, will not down. A
meeting will be held in ControlleV Morrow's
private office to-morrow morning, at which
it is expected there will be present Mayor
Gourley, Controller Morrow, Park Super
intendent McKnight, Street Commessioner
Paisley, and several gentlemen whose names
the Controller will not divulge who claim to
have important evidence against the park
superintendent in relation to his discharging
citizens from work at Schenley Park and
refusing work to others, giving foreigners
the preference.
The Controller is determined to get at the
bottom of these complaints and, while Mr.
McKnight denies the charges point blank,
he is desirous of giving his accusers a chance
to prove their statements.
The men who made the charges were to
have been on hand yesterday, but did not
show up. Mr. McKnight was around wait
ing far them with a chicken hawk in one
hand, the latest gift to the "zoo," and fire
in his eye. There will be fun when he meets
them.

and Bent to Washington.
Assistant Superintendent of Police Boger
O'Mara received a telegram from J. H.
Longnecker, Assistant Secretary ot the
Commonwealth, last evening, to the efiect
that the requisition for John C. Brosi, the
Southtide lorger who is under arrest in
Canada, has been approved by the Governor.
The requisition papers will now go to
Secretary Blaine at Washington, and in
turn forwarded to the Governor General ot
Canada. Considerable delay was caused at
Harrisburg on account of the absence of the
Governor, and unless better time is made
with the papers Brosi, it is feared, will get
