Mr. Large objected, saying be thought the people should choose their can didates. James Moran spoke in favor of Mr. Brcnnen's motion, saying it cost too much to set up delegates and come to a con vention, and said that it was a forlorn hope at best, and people did not want to go to un necessary expense. Mr. Laree finally withdrew his objection, and Mr. Brennen's resolution was passed, and the meeting adjourned. Mr. Brennen has put on a little war paint and adorned himself with a tew feathers and will enter the arena as a Congressional candidate against Hon. John Dalzell in the Twenty- second Congressional district. James Clark will be a candidate for the State Senate in the Forty-fourth district against William Flinn, and John Hucken stein stand a tilt with Candidate Keeb iu the Forty-second Senatorial district. TIIE EDISON" BAMBOO. A Cnrlosltrin tlie Main Building at the Ex position Usrcl by the Wlznrd of Menlo Pnrk In Perfecting One of His Greatest InTentlon. Though few people are aware of the fact, there is a curiosity in the main building at the Exposition which is very interesting as having been connected with oneof the great est inventions of the age. Visitors to the He-No Tea Hong have undoubtedly noticed the large piece ot bamboo in front of the antique old mirror. This bamboo is not only remarkable tor its ereat size being nine inches iu diameter but has an interesting history. Six or seven years ago, when Edison was experimenting with his incandescent licht. he fit used paper, which was carbonized and then put in the light This was found ineffective. Afterward he tried bamboo, and tound it worked so well that he thought it he could procure a mature piece of bam boo he could make a great success. Hearing mai ine proprietors oi ile-o tea had in Baltimore a piece ol bamboo nine inches in diameter be sent a messenger post haste to tiieBaltimore firm to see if they would sell a piece of the bamboo. When they heard the object tor which it was intended to be used, tbey cheerfully sawed off the top and gave it to him. This was the first Edison incandescent light made. This unique exhibit is filled with inter esting things and is the mecca of all Expo sition visitors who, after walking around until they are tired, visit the unique little Japanese house or the garden above the erolto to rest arid sip a cup of the delicious tea.

Telephone, 1864. The attendance at the Exposition last night reached high-water mark. While it was impossible to determine the exact at tendance, it was said by those who ought to know that the numberof visitor! was greater than on any other evening this season. The vast buildincs were packed as early as 8 o'clock, and there was a constant stream of people making their way in that direction up to 9:30 and later. Of course, many were leaving at all times during the evening or it would have been simply im possible for all to gain admission. The first floor of the main building, the gal leries, the machinery hall, the great prom enade about the illuminated fountain and the space between the buildings were all crowded. Frequent jams occurred, which made lo comotion decidedly inconvenient at times, and many persons were heard to say: "Well, the next time I want to see the Exposition I will come in the morning, when there isn't such a crowd here." But some days the attendance is almost as large during the daytime as at night. The attendance was very heavy yesterday and the day before on account of numerous excursions which brought the people in from surrounding towns. A DEMOCRATIC CROWD. The crowd last night, while almost too large for the buildings, and certainly too large for comfort, was a good-natured, jolly one. It was a democratic crowd, too, in a social sense, and the mechanic and the mil lionaire jostled each other and nothing was thought of it. When a young lady with a ball of pop-corn aimed the same for her mouth and some one in the crowd struck her elbow, causing the sticky sweetness to land in the young lady's eyes and bangs, she didn't get mad About it, but took it as a mere matter of course. Mr. D. C. Herbst, one of the managers, says the receipts so far are 40 per cent ahead of those at the same time last year. An approximate estimate of the receipts for the season will soon be made, and it is perfectly safe to say it will be a very gratifying one. Manager Johnston was delighted with the attendance yesterday and claims that Pitts burg has the finest Exposition in the country to-day. He does not make this statement as an idle boast, but as one that can easily be substantiated. G. W. Frazer, or Cleveland, was here yes terday to inspect the big sho.r at the Point and obtain information to guide the people of the Forest City in establishing a similar enterptise. He was greatly pleased at what he saw and frankly said they would model their Exposition in many ways after Pitts burg's. BABY M'KEE'S GEEAT-GEANDPA THERE. Rev. Dr. J. W. Scott, President Har rison's father-in-law, equally distinguished as the great grandparent of Baby Mc-Kee, who runs the White House, was present yes terday with a party of lriends. He in spected the displays with great interest, and, of course, visited the tea pagoda, where, under the somnolent influence of that bever age and an easy chair, the old gentleman calmly went to sleep. He said he could not say positively whether the President would come during his stay at Cresson, but thought it quite probable that he would, as he was pleased with his former visits here. The music, as usual, last evening was a great feature. People go, many of them, solely to hear the music after they have be come familiar with the various exhibits. They go early and occupy the seats in front of the band stand and they just stay there during the hour elapsing between the two concerts. They stick to their seats for fear of losing them. Prof. Innes has composed a new con cert polka, which he calls the Duquesne polka, and which is dedicated 10 the people of Pittsburg in honor of the Exposition. It will be played in public for the first time to-morrow afternoon, as will be seen by the following programme: part 1. water system continues to give out warmth, until the water cools to the temperature of the atmosphere. Radical changes in the heat's degrees are impossible with the Gurney system; therefore, it must be safer and more healthful, and there is no danger of explosions, and the system is devoid of that crackling sound which is so annoying. Now is the time to thoroughly examine the splendid system inaugurated by Reinecke & Co., before the cold weather becomes severe. At their Exposition exhibit Beinecke & Co. carry an immense line of electric light and gas fixtures, which they are offering at especially low figures. They have established a big reputation for their fine sanitary plumbing, and as their work men have been selected for their skill and proficiency, and their materials are the best the markets afford, this firm is entitled to its position of the leading bouse in all these branches. THE SCHOENECK. WAT. A Display That ii Attrnctlve nnd li Slnde More PleaslnK br n Visit to the Store. The neat display of fine fnrniture, in the Exposition, of P. C. Schoeneck & Son. has been already referred to in The Dispatch. It consists of articles of quaint but elegant design, disposed with artistic tact in such a way as to arrest attention at once. The Exposition show of P. C. Schoeneck & Son is pleasing enough, but to get a proper idea of the progress that has been made in art furniture one must visit the vast store-house of the firm at 711 Liberty street. It is im possible to show in the Exposition enough furniture to give an adequate idea of the taste of the period in this direction. Messrs. Schoeneck & Son know this, and hence give their great Exposition in their own store. Theie are four floor and two galleries, in which goods are to be found as follows: First floor hall racks, dining room furni ture, book cases, etc.; second floor bed room furniture and tables; third and fourth floors fine upholstered parlor furniture. One of the two galleries is filled with chairs of special odd designs, while the other has ordinary chairs. Talking about furniture in general, Mr. Phil Schoeneck said: "We have in stock everything in the way of fine fnrniture that comes out, but it is impossible to follow out the exact ideas of fastidious people unless we make things specially tor them. It is a mistaken idea that extraor dinary designs to exactlv suit a particular preference in art furniture or anything else, for that matter are to be found in stock. If they were thus kept they would not be extraordinary. You see, we have all sorts of quaint and beautiful things in tables, chairs and furniture generally," pointing to a qneerly-carved oat chair of me j.ianan school, with grinnmz dragons on the arms, "but a lady or gentleman may come in here and look for something that they have thought out in their own mind, and not find it. In fact, they would not find it anywhere. We have everything that is new, but the only way to get an entirely original design for the customer is for that customer to order it We would prefer to make all our own furni ture, but our business is too large, and then, again, there is a certain class of customers that insist upon factory-made furniture." As to the style of furniture in favor just now, Mr. Schoeneck says it runs to woods in the natural finish oak, bird's-eye maple, white maple and cherry. The latest taste for very fine work is real English oak. imported in the original log and sawed up in this country. It gives certain spots in the grain that cannot be imitated and is very rich. This is only the barest outline of the exposition given by P. C. Schoeneck & Son at 711 Liberty street It may be added that there will be a large collection ot novelties alter October 1 that are now in preparation. PICTURED TO PERFECTION. alert for the newest and the best,always ready to give prompt and courteous attention to patrons, always prepared to'fulfill all or ders with intelligence and energy, this firm has bnilt up an immense trade, for they are deservedly popular. Visit 307 Wood street and make a tour of the four floors there, not forgetting those fronting on Third avenue, and yon will form some idea of the huge stock carried by this house, stock that is pood, reliable and worth your money. AN EXQUISITE MODEL. Murphy & Dlebold, Station Street and P. K, H., nnd Wnbnsh Aiennc, West End. Just the prettiest, daintiest and most ef fective thing in the Exposition building is the model of a modern stairway found in this exhibit on lower end of main floor. It is of natural hardwood, perfectly propor tioned and of finest workmanship. You have first the miniature entrance hall, with doors draped with portiere, then main hall, where you reach the stairway proper, which has two sub and one superior landings, the uauusumc oaiustraae and newel posts all being richly carved, while what we must call the wall, that reaches from the floor to the stairs, is a mass of artistic panel work. Even the statuary suitable to hallways is to be found upon the landings, and a stained glass window under the stairway, presum ably lighting a. lavatory. There are various specimens of the work manufactured by this firm in the way of hardwood balcony railings, turned and carved newel posts for stair ways; mantels and cabinets that are now plain, but readv to become oak. walnut or any finish that may be desired; moldings of uiuereui wiutns ior handrails, and all Kinds of Iret or open work for embellishing doors, balconies or any place where such orna ments are appropriate. Particularly strik ing area pair of doors which open in the center, each of which has a large panel hand carved in oak leaves, which stand out in bold relief. The panels above are of a more severely plain style. Above are apertures lelt for stained glass transom lights. Another door, which is single, is etched in a floral design. In addition to these are samples of window frames, sashes and turned porch columns. Manufactures of this firm which deterve mention, but not included in this exhibit, are dressed lumber of all descrip'ions, flooring, siding and ceil ing, hemlock and pine framing lumber, plain and ornamental cut shingles, lath, pickets and palings. The business of stair building is carried on most extensively by this firm, 8nd as they are located on the line ot the Pennsylvania Railroad they have every facility for shipping, while their West End factory is very centrally located. It is evident from the fine workmanship of their Exposition display that this firm is unusually well able to turn out high class stair work and inside finish for the most ex pensive modern dwellings, and to fill the most exacting requirements of architects, as well ns to make the ordinary standard grades 01" good workmanship required in usual dwellings. moderate consumption of fuels. Mr. Thomp son's long experience will be of advantage to those who are fitting up houses. SELF-FLAYING iEOLIANS. TO PITTsBDItfi PASSENGERS.

The voting goes bravely on at The Dis patch stand. The topic for yesterdav was, "Should the free organ recitals in Carnegie Hall, Allegheny, be kept up?" Many pages of the register were taken up with the names of the voters, and unusual interest was taken iu the question. It was largely a onesided contest however, as the verdict was almost unanimously in avor of con tinuing these organ recitals. One ot the few voters on the negative side recorded under the head of remarks his opinion that "It is of no earthly use to anybody." Many others recorded their opinions, among which were these: "We don't have to pay for it;" "Music is the most civilizing of all arts;" "It will cultivate a taste for classical music among the masses;" "They are refining and elevating in their influence," etc. Among those who voted were: S. B. Stew art, W. J. Parkhill, J. Edgar, A. Wilson, H. P. Simpson, Chas. W. Matik, F. Wil son, W. J. Snoderass. R. B. Scaudrptt. Joseph Kilgallou, A. W. Brockway, Geo. Johnston, J. B. Adams, W. J.

Several of the finest French and German pictures on exhibit in the art gallery were sold to Pittsburgers yesterday, aud will re main in tnis city. They are very costly. The illuminated fountain of course at tracted much attention and delighted every-bodv. J. R. Penrxon, 96 Fifth Avenne, nnd 43 nnd 45 Federnl St., Allegheny. Thicker and thicker grow the crowds to view this great exhibit of photography aud crnyuu uuriraus 10 ue louna 111 one section of Art Gallery. There is a brightness and naturalness about the faces that is very striking; a something which conveys the im pression that the likenesses were taken at just the right moment, beiore the sitter had time to realize that he or she was under going that ordeal to many, "getting their picture taken;" that moment when the ter rible stare begins and the figure becomes wooden as an automaton. No, the absence of these painful ideas from all the faces is very marked, there is a 6ort of pleased, expectant air in them all which is novel and refreshing. Babies are laughing outright, grotvn people scarce ly content themselves with only smiling; in deed faces that mustrtlsually be demure are as arch and mischievous as their neighbors', which is saying a good deal. If one can make a choice, here all is so excellent, it would be perhaps in favor of the groups (always the most difficult to manage), for in mem iuc luuiYiuuaiuy is so strongly pre served, and so much discretion is evinced in harmonizing the different types and styles, so that the finest effects are produced, and all who look at these photos are gratified, even when it is no question of its being the counterfeit presentment or a friend. The worK in the fearson galleries is ot a very high standard, the finish and general excel lence leaving nothing to be desired. This is an admirable time to visit these studios, and all who come are made welcome. Mellor dc linear, 77 Fifth Avenne. There is something unusual and attractive in the name of these delightful and conven ient instruments. Only too often do the usual reed organs have the most irritating effect upon the tympanum of the ear, so that to get hold of this distinctive class of instru. ment that will only please and delight is a matter of congratulation. What is the .iEolian? Briefly, it is an Instrument upon which you can play the highest grades of classical or operatic music, without any knowledge whatever of notation or the rules which govern the art aud science ot music, yet it has a keyboard which can be played upon as any ordinary organ. Seat yourself before the olian, move the pedals, pull the stops designated upon the rolls of music, and you have the most astounding and agreeable results.. All the newest and latest music is now published for the iEolians. In very fine grades of organs carried by Mellor & Hoene, are the United States and Chicago-Cottage. It would seem in regard to pianos a work of supererogation to say anything about the delicious Hardman Grauils, the reliable Krakauer Uprights and theclear bell-voiced Vose; suffice it to say, that the long experi ence of this firm, established in 1831. with Mr. Mellor s musical knowledge, and Mr. Hoene's practical knowledge of how to make a piano, renders tbem peculiarly fitted to know exactly which instruments are the best, so that the public is sure of getting always the most reliable and dnrable at their establishment.

The Hot Water bytteni of Heating Iu Itlanlfold AavantHges. Pittsburg is indebted to Messrs. Beinecke & Co., 309 Wood st, for the introduction ot the Gurney Hot Water Heater, which is in dorsed by all the leading physicians as the system par excellence to be used in heating dwellings, offices, public building's, (and as jjiams nave lungs 10 ue considered) con servatories, etc One of its claims to superiority is the equality ot temperature iu all parts of the building and the insur ing of as warm a bonse as you desire, day or night, as there is not the fluctuation in this heat that is observable in steam; be side which, the heat radiated from these pipes is of a mild, agreeable nature, not to be obtained by any other sys tem 01 neaung, ana it noes not shrink, craclC or injure furniture. Another feature, is the saving in the consumption of fuel. It will heat a house at low temperature, so that it can be regulated to the requirements ot ex ternal degrees of heat and cold, while with the system of steam heating, should the boiler tall below 212 degrees Fahrenheit the radiators instantly cool, but the ho LUSCIOUS FRUITS. Evolution In the Grndea Boaebt br Hlti burffrrt. The people of this city have always used a great deal of fruit, but they were not par ticular as to the grade. Indeed it was a common remark some years ago among dealers when a cargo reached New York or Chicago, if the fruit was green, over ripe or of generally poor quality, that it would answer well enough for the Pittsbutg market The reverse of this state of affairs now ob taius, and regardless of price, Pittsburgers will only be satisfied with the choicest qual ities, iur. .oarcKy, tne iruit dealer, at Seventh aud Liberty streets, attributes this change largely to hi's efforts to supply really high grade fruits to this market. Liberal orders from the Duquesne and Pittsburg clubs, the Monongahela House and Du quesne Hotel, which keep always their tables supplied with choice fruits, en abled him to continue his buines until the people came to understand the difference in quality of the fruits he handled from the general run of goods. The fruits in market at present are peaches, pears, nectarines, apricots pineapples, and Ham burg hothouse grapes. The entire couutry will depend largely upon California ;or fruit supply this year, as iu other sections rain has about ruined the crops. Mr. Barcky has a method by which he preserves fruits, so that to-diy he has pears about equal inquality to this season's crop, which he has kept for nearly a year.

Mr. Barcky has the credit of raising the standard ol the fruit market in this city. The Stevens Chair Company, No. 3 Sixth Sticct.
