THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH. MONDAY,' NOVEMBER 17 1890.
HOUSES OF REFUGE.
Annual Meeting of the Branches of
the Pittsburg T. II. C. A.
A PATHETIC APPEAL TO MOTHERS
Of the loan? Men Who Are Wanderers
From Home and Friends.
A SO'G THAT REACHED THEIE HEARTS
"Where is my wandering boy to
night?" sang an old gentleman at the sixth
annual meeting of the East Liberty branch
of the Young Men's Christian Association
of Pittsburg, last night.
The song and the singer touched the
hearts of hundreds of mothers present, and
many a tear fell for a wandering boy, where,
God only knows. The singer was Mr. H.
Thane Miller, of Cincinnati, a member of
the Genera Committee of the Y. M. C. A.,
and he seemed to pour ont his very soul in
the strains of that oft too well known old
song. Mr. Miller is blind and perhaps his
affliction made the old familiar words more
touching. As the last words of the chorus,
softly sung by the entire audience, died
away and the gentleman took his seat, the
silence was most impressive, aud was only
broken by a sob coming from the heart of
one mother who was thinking of her "wan
dering boy."
The beautiful and imposing East Liberty
Presbyterian Church was taxed to its utmost
last night to accommodate the friends ot the
Y. M. C. A. gathered at its sixteenth annual
meeting. This organization is doing a noble
work among the young men of the country,
and year by year it is becoming more popu
lar with the people of every station in life.
The annual report read by Mr. Peter Dick
shows the East Liberty department to be in
a most flourishing condition. The member
ship roll is rapidly increasing, and the new
association building is nearing completion,
which will give to the members gymnasium
and bath privileges. The Christian work of
the organization was also shown to be
rapidly growing.
AS ELEGA2TT JLDDEESS.
Mr. H. Thane Miller addressed the meet
ing in a manner most impressive, and
his plea for the yonng men who walk the
streets, away from home and friends and
amid the influence of the world was elo
quent and carried with it the conviction
that tbe speaker had seen and knows the
trials of such yonng men. He gave illus
trations ot the workings of the organization
and examples of where, if such work had
been more extensive, young men might
have been saved from lives of crime and
mothers saved from ihe pangs of sorrow
caused bv an erring, wandering son. Oc
casional bits of humor would crop out from
among the pathos, and during the entire
time the address was listened to with great
interest.
"People who live in these elegant suburbs
of Pittsburg don't know the temptations
that beset the young men," said Mr. Miller.
"Look at the saloons, and places even worse
than saloons, that are open ready to receive
the young men who have no homes to go to.
It is such young men who need the Y. M.
C. A. buildings and reception rooms. Your
boys may not need them, but somebody's
boys do. You can't invite these youug men
to your home"!, but you can "assist tbe
Young Men's Christian Association in the
good work of reaching out for them. These
associations also help to find employment,
muu is iavs necessary in ine reforma
tion of voung" men, for that 'Satan finds
mischief for idle hands to do is as true now
as ever. "
Mr. Miller's address was quite lenrthy,
but certau-ly very interesting He closed
with a strong appeal to the hearts of the
ladies, who, he says, are more easily reached
in this sort of work than are the men, who
are busily engaged in business.
Music, prayer, the annual collection and
the necediction closed a meeting that prom
ises to be productive of much good for the
Y. M. C. A. and the homeless young men of
the city.
THE BAILKOAD DEPARTMENT.
During the a'ternoon the Kallroad De
partment of the Y. M. C. A. of Pittsburg
held its seventh annual meeting at its read
ing rooms on Twenty-eighth street. The
rooms are very small, hut at least 200
people were crowded iu to observe this anni
versary 01 tee organization. Devotional
exercises were conducted by Kev. Dr.
Beazell. Excellent music was included m
the programme. The male quartet was
composed of Messrs. A. T. Miller, J. H.
Mendenhall. G. F. Wagner and E. S.
Simpson. The orchestra included Mr. A.
T. Miller and four children with violins
and Mr. T. C. Taylor and three children
with cornets. Mr. H. Thave Miller snoke
lor a few moments and then sang "Where
is My Wandering Boy To-Night," the au
dience joining in the chorus. The music
was most impressive and caused the
thoughts of many of those present to return
to a son or brother out in the world without
home or friends.
Secretary Weidman read his annual re
port, showing the association to be increas
ing in prosperity. They now have a mem
bership of 414, an increase of 19 members
during the year. On account of leaving the
railroad service 102 members were dropped,
but 121 joined during the year.
Mr. H. K. Porter and Kev. Kichard S.
Holmes addressed the meeting on tbe mani
fold benefits ol the organization, and espe
cially in the railroad department. It not
only helps tbe men, but the company, and
the railroad officials all over the country are
beginning to see that it is to their interest
to keep up these organizations, and appro
priations are annually made for their main
tenance. CAEED2D OFF AT.T.,
Another dsliier Cleans Out a Broken Bank
and Disappears.
Mt. Carmel, III., November 16. The
banking firm of Cowling, Gowerlock & Co.
is no more. Mr. Cowling, the president,
died November 5 and the bank closed
for a few days. The depositors
waited for a lew days, and when
the bank did not open they grew impatient
and demanded their monev. Last Tuesday

This morning a receiver was appointed
and the sale opened. It contained less than
5200 in silver. The supposition is that
the cashier got away with 15,000
or ?20,000. No accurate estimate
can be made until the end of the
examination of the books. Steps will be
taken at once to have the missing canhier
caught and brought back. He is well
known in St. Louis and Chicago.

Tebke Haute, Ind., November 16. A
prepossessing young lady of 18, with long
curly blonde hair, who registered at the
Terre Haute House as Ethel Towne, of
Chicago, coming alone from Chicago on a
late train last night, was taken to police
headquarters this afternoon, and is detained
there a prisoner for passing a forged check
for $300, purporting to have been signed
by J. H. Walker, the well-known Chicago
drygoods man. She pretended to be
on her way to school at St. Mary's
of the Woods, west of this city,
and yesterday exhibited to the hotel clerks
a letter from Chicago, written on one of J.
H. Walker & Co.'s letter-heads, inclosed in
one of the firm's envelopes and signed J. H.
Walker, in which was the check in ques
tion. Suspecting something was wrong, the
hotel people telegraphed to J. H. Walker
at Chicago, and a response came from Mr.
Walker that the check was a forgery. The
girl sent a telegram herself, in response
to which came a telegram directed to Man
ager Barr in person, signed J. H. Walker,
asking that the check be cashed.
This mystified matters and still 'the man
ager refused to cash tbe check, his next
move being to telegraph Mr. Walker at his
residence number, a second reply coming
that it was a forgery. The girl left the hotel
in the direction of the depot this morning,
evidently to take a train, but finding herself
snadowed, returned to tbe hotel. Soon at
terward she was taken into custody. She
brokejdown and confessed all, saying that
Jack Bennett, who, she says, is connected
with one of the Chicago papers, sent her tbe
bogus check, and that the conspiracy to get
the money was at his suggestion.
She says it was understood that he was to
send a telegram in Walker's name, her tele
gram to him being directed to an alias,
"Harry D. Eoberts," in care of a Chicago
paper. The girl is evidently an adventuress
of a high order. She is in jail to-night She
says her right name is Ella White, of Dan
Till, 111.

Miasiisbueg, O., November 16. A das
tardly outrage was perpetrated this evening
about 6 o'clock. As Miss Emma Weidle, a
handsome young girl of 16, was walking on
Sugar street, near the depot, an unknown
man, stepped out of a dark alley, and
knocking her umbrella out of her hands,
drew a long knife, and, as she attempted to
pick up the umbrella, the man caught her
and cnt off her beautiful long black hair,
which she wore plaited and hanging down
her back.
The villain ran away before the poor girl
recovered from her deadly fright. Tbe police
are making diligent search, and it will go
hard with the offender if caught.

Is a constitutional and not a local disease, and
therefore it cannot be cured by local applica
tions. It reqnlrea a constitutional remedy like
Hood's Sarsaparilla, which, working through
tbe blood, eradicates the impurity which causes
and promotes the disease, and effects a perma
nent cure. Thousands of people testify to the
snecess of Hood's Sarsaparilla as a remedy for
catarrh when other preparations bad failed.
Hood's Sarsaparilla also bnilds np the whole
system, and makes you feel renewed in health
and strength. All who surfer from catarrh or
debility ehonld certainly give Hood's Sarsa
parilla a fair trial.
A Perfect Cure.
"I have been taking Hood's Sarsaparilla for
the rast four years at intervals. I was troubled
with catarrh, and the medicine effected a per
fect core. I take it now whenever I feel debil.
itated, and it always gives me immediate
strength, regulates tbe bowels and gives an ex
cellent appetite." LEVI Oamtbeia, Parkers

Strange and Unaccountable Outbreak
of
a Farmer's Hired Man.
MAKSHALLTOWJf, Ia., November 16.
To-day a bloody affray occurred at the
home of Marcena Stone, a wealthy farmer
living four miles southwest of here. This
morning, after the chores were done,
the farmer and F. L. Pelbeam, his hired
man, sat down to read while awaiting
breakfast. Suddenly, without provocation
or warning, Pelbeam grasped a small blnnt
hatchet, which he held secreted under his
coat, leaped to his feet and struck Stone a
violent blow on the top of his head. The
latter fell to the floor, stnnned and bleeding.
The assailant repeated tbe attack, dealing
six more blows on the head of his victim.
At this junctnre, Mrs. Stone appeared
from another room. Pelbeam turned upon
her, struck her five times with the hatchet,
and would doubtless have killed her but for
the fact that her husband rallied and seized
him by the throat, keeping him under sub
jection until neighbors, who had been
aroused by the screams of the woman and
children, arrived upon the scene. Pelbeam
fled, but a number of neighbors pursued
him half a mile and captured him, but
found he had cut his own throat with a dull
pocketkmfe, which he carried, but did not
inflict a necessarily fatal wound. He was
brought to town and jailed. He is evidently
insane.

the mountains were crossed, when tbe transi

like going into a new country. The beautiful

COUNTERFEITS.
We are daily warned through the newspapers to look out for
counterfeit bills which are in circulation. These are most of them
cleverly executed, and are readily accepted by great numbers as
genuine. Of course, the man who gets one of them is out that
much. But this is just as true of counterfeit clothing as it is of
counterfeit money. A counterfeit is something that looks like what
it is not. That's just how counterfeit clothing looks. Behind plate
glass, and, even to the touch, it appears all right It's true nature
comes out in the wear. There's a heap of it in the market. Did
you ever get stuck on a suit If so, you will appreciate tUese re
marks. Not one man in a hundred is a judge of clothing, you say,
and this is trtfe. How may you protect yourselves? Deal with a
reliable house, that has a name and reputation to sustain, a house
that is really more interested in giving you good value for the
money accepted than you are in getting it Deal nowhere where a
sliding scale of prices exists. Buy no auction or bankrupt stock
goods. Avoid clothing houses whose residence in the city is tem
porary, in the windows of which, when you go around a month or
two after to lay them out for the manner in which they have de
ceived you, you see this sign, "TO LET."
