CHARITY'S CARNIVAL
6. A. B. Ladies' Successful Enter
tainment at Old City Hall.
A PARADE OF TEETH BELLES.
Pleasant Ecception Tendered to a Benedict
and His Bride.
SOCIAL ETEXTS OP THE TWIN CITIES
The ladies of tht G. A. B. outrivaled
themselves, which is sayim a great deal, in
their entertainment at Old City Hall last
evening.
The ancient edifice was patriotic in decora
tions and filled with a patriotic people.
The programme opened with an overture
by the Ideal Orchestra, iliss Maimie Koby
was then Heard in the tragic recitation,
'Searching for the Slain." Mrs. Dr. Sad
ler.in "Our Boys," was the next performer,
and preceded "We'll Have to Mortgage tjie
Parm," rendered by the Horehead choir.
Master Smith in a vocal solo acquitted him
self nicely.
The "Merchants Carnival," from which
the entertainment derived its name, then
occupied the stage, and in it 1G young ladies
in costumes defining the industry they rep
resented were drilled by Mr. W. I. Patter
son. X YEEY PKETTr FEATUBE.
This was an especially unique and pretty
feature of the affair, as some of the cos
tumes worn were decidedly original in con
ception and striking in reality.
Prof. Byron W. King very kindly ren
dered one selection, and was greatly appre
ciated he has many friends among the U.
.A. E. people, for whom he never refuses to
recite. "The Babics,"by Miss Maimie Eohy,
who justly claims to have been a soldier's
baby herself, was admirably recited, and
with a schottische by the orchestra the pro
gramme was concluded.
Tne tables, seven of them in number, were
quickly filled by an oyster-hungry people,
to whom the bivalves were served in every
known way. The ice cream department was
patronized liberally after the oyster feast,
and the flower booth did considerable busi
ness. The entertainment was given for the ben
efit of the G. A. R. Home at Hawkins sta
tion, and the financial results were very sat
isfactory. WAITED UPON BY FAIE HAXDS.
The ladies who were in charge of the affair
were:
Floner Booth Mrs. Colonel W. Xi. Foulk,
ilrs. Murdoch and Mrs. Lyucb.
Ice Cream Misses Hunter. Thomas and Mrs.
Allfrey.

A SUCCESSFUL COHCEET.
The Cathedral Band Scores a Decided Suc
cess at Lafayette Hall.
The popularity of the Cathedral Band
was fully demonstrated by the audience that
greeted their appearance in concert last
evening at Lafayette Hall.
The grand march "De Paris," by Benvist,
opened the programme in a very stirring
manner, and an overture, "Morning, Noon
and Night in Vienna," followed. Miss
Grace Miller won hearty applan.be by her
rendering of "Only One More," by Moir,
and Mr. Thomas F. Welsh, in a cornet solo,
'Lizzee Polka," by Boliinson, was a very
acceptable performer. The familiar "Old
Black Joe," by Geadle, was a piano solo
that, under Miss Lillian Bed
dick's skillful fingers, was very
enjoyable. The band, in selections
from "Ernani," by Verdi, and a potpourri,
"A Night in Berlin," by Haytnian, were
greeted with decided appreciation, mani
fested in the usual manner. In "Waiting,"
by Malarey, Miss Beddick scored a second
triumph, as did Miss Miller in "Lit
tle Margaret." Other numbers were
equally as pleasing, and Prof. J. Bobr as
director of the band and concert wasdeluged
with congratulations. A dance followed
the musical performance.
EECEPIIOK TO A BHIDE,
Flowers and Music Form a Pleasant Con
trast to the Storm "Without.
A great many ladies wondered yesterday
afternoon whether they should brave the
storm and attend the reception tendered by
Mrs. John L. George, of North avenue,
Allegheny, or remain at home. Some chose
the latter alternative and bemoaned the in
clemency of the weather; others went to the
reception and congratulated themselves
upon so doing.
The home was beautifully decorated with
fresh and fragrant cut flowers that gave a
June-like effect, in striking contrast with
the unpleasant outside. Soft, low music,
occasionally swelling into a perfect burst of
melody, added greatly to the charm of the
event, and successful catering completed
the superb appointments.
The reception was given in honor of Mrs.
Archibald Love George, a daughter-in-law
of the hostess, recently married in Cleve
land. BUEPEISED COUNTY OFFICIAL,
Mr. TV. P. Seibert'a Friends Drop In and
Spend a Pleasant Evening.
Mr. W. P. Seibert, the very popular Chief
Uerk in the County Commissioners' office,
was merrily surprised at his home in the
Seventeenth ward last evening.
The company that took him unawares con
sisted of the Court House officials, with their
wives and sweethearts, and a limited num
ber oi outsiders. Uayety and joy reigned in
the Seibert home until a late hour. Excel
lent music, dancing and enjoyable refresh
ments were attributes of the evening's
pleasure.
PIAYHTG FOE POSIES.
-Successful Entertainment to Raise Funds
for Christmas Church Decorations.
The "Witches Plight" from "Macbeth,"
was presented last evening in the annex of
St. James' Episcopal Church by the young
ladies of the chnrch choir. The character
of Hecate was assumed by sr gentleman
known only to the general public as the
"Unknown Tragedian." Coffee and other
refreshments were served after the perform'
acce.
A snug little sum was gained for the nnr-
pose of church decorations for the Christmas
xestivai.
Hebrew Musical Entertainment.
The second annual entertainment of the
Young Men's Hebrew Society, of Alle
gheny, was given in Cyclorama Hall last
evening, and was an enjoyable event
Toerge's Orchestra furnished the music, and
othecs who appeared upon the programme,
were Miss Bosallnd Forrester, Miss Fannie
Michelson, a stranger from San Francisco,
and Prof. Carl Ahl. '
THE OE0CEES' ANNUAL BECEPTION.
Addresses, Music, Dancing and a Banq.net
Form Pleasing Features.
What cared they for the weather the
members of the Betail Grocers' Association
of Pittsburg evidently nothing, for they
were out in force at the annual reception
and banquet given last evening in Turner
HalL Forbes street, and a genuinely good
time was the result of the gathering.
At the close of the grand march at 9
o'clock Hon. H. L Gourley delivered the
address of welcome in his usual masterful
style, and Mr. Percy F. Smith, in a re
sponse, proclaimed himself, more thor
oughly than ever, "a first-class, off-hand
talker." The Boyal Italian Band, with
Colonel McMichaels as prompter, then oc
cupied the time, and the happy dancers the
floor. Mr. J. 0. O'Donnell officiated as
master of ceremony.
TheBeception Committee consisted of a
large number of gentlemen prominent in
the business circles of the city, and the Com
mittee of Arrangements embraced the fol
lowing names: Messrs. J. C. O'Donnell,
H. Daub, J. H. Friday, W. TJ. Willett, H.

NO DEFENSE OFFEEED.
A Turnpike Company Concludes an Adverse
Verdict Is Best for If.
rSPSCIAI TELEOKAM TO THZ DISrATCH.t
Hakbisbubq. Dec. 17. Judge Simon
ton held a term of court to-day for the dis
position of State cases. The first one called
was that of the Commonwealth against the
Salina and Latonia Turnpiks Company, a
corporation maintaining a turnpike road
from Oil City to Salina in Venango county.
The State claimed that by failure to keep
the road in proper order, the company has
forfeited its corporate franchises. Several
affidavits were read of citizens of Venango
county, as to the condition of the roads, one
of them alleging that the mud in the turn
pike was two feet deep and the rocks at the
bottom of the mud were ao big that any per
son driving over the road was in danger of
his life.
As counsel for the Commonwealth was
apparently about to read a voluminous mass
of testimony the attorney for the company
cut the matter short by saying that while
its officers believed that they had a good de
fense and could show that the facts were not
as charged in the complaint, nevertheless
the expense of maintaining the turnpike was
so great and the. value of the corporate
franchises so small, that the company had
concluded to let it go rather than be at the
expense of producing witnesses, whereupon
Judge Simonton directed the jury to render
a verdict in favor of the Commonwealth.
Where Language Fails.
Language is hardly strong enough to ex
press mv admiration of the merits of Cham
berlain's Cough Bemedy. It is the best
remedy for croup and whooping congh
I have ever used. During the past 18 years I
have tried nearly all the prominent congh
medicines on the market, but say, and with
pleasure, too, that Chamberlain's Cough
Bemedy is the best of all. Thomas Rhodes'.

A Noteworthy Exception.
From the Kimball (S. D.) Graphic.
While the columns of the Graphic are
open to any and all unobjectionable adver
tisements, yet it is quite impossible for us
to speak knowingly of the merits of the Va
rious articles ot merchandise advertised.
Particularly is this true of patent medicines.
But there are exceptions occasionally! and a
noteworthy exception is the celebrated
Chamberlain's Congh Bemedy. This now
universally known medicine has been ad
vertised in the Graphic ior four or five
years, but not until recently had we any per
sonal knowledge of its wonderfnl efficacy,
which has come about through the prevail
ing influenza and the stubborn congh that
has so often attended it. In the writer's
family this medicine has on several occa
sions this winter cured a cough that baffled
any and all other remedies, and the number
of families in Kimball and vicinity in which
this remedy has been used with like effects
attests to its value as a specific for coughs
and colds of every nature. Thsu

BETTER THAN
AUCTION.
Because you can buy from
us with full knowledge of
what you- are doing with
calm deliberation and com
parison and more cheaply.
You have the satisfaction of
an auction as to prices, with
nothing of its dangerous fas
cination. There is no "going,
going gone" business to
drive you headlong into a
reckless purchase.
The auction room usually
catches the cast-off patterns
and those which are crooked,
or in some other way defect
ive, and unsaleable in the reg
ular way.
Don't buy until you see our
offering of Rugs. We quote
a few representative selec
tions: Ushack Carpot, 16 feet by 11 feet 2, $175.
Ushack Carpet, !) feet by 12 feet. $60.

increases daily. Who comes to look, stays to buy. We are honored,

PLEASED AND SATISFIED.
Our immense holiday trade is no dream, but a gratifying business
reality. Now a word to those who.mean to come, but have not yet made
up their minds when. Take our advice and buy early; avoid the rush.
The best is apt to go first. But if" you can't come early, come late; bet
ter late than never. Don't fail to see our grand display; you cannot but
be interested in it The magnificent assortment of goods and the low'
prices which rule are drawing the crowd like
AN IRRESISTIBLE MAGNET.
LET US GIVE YOU ANOTHER TIP: Don't waste your money.
Thousands of dollars are wasted during Christmas week in "trinkets"
which "are for a day," and have little value. In the vast assortment we
show you'll find hundreds of
Sensible Souvenirs.
Remember: Lasting presents make lasting friendships. Every de
partment in our store opens up a rich mine in which to delve for some
thing suitable and at about the price you wanf to pay. We'll make a
suggestion or two come and look at the rest.
