THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1891. SOCIETY PLEASURES. Annual Ilanquet of the Washington Jefferson College Alumni. EVEKY ITtOFESSIOx REPRESENTED A Xnmber of Interesting llnsical Enter tainments Last Evening. THE LITTLE SOCIAL DRIFT OP A DAI The alnmni of Washington and Jefferson College banqueted at the Duquesne Club House last night, and the 90 men -who gathered around the tables represent every profession and business. The genial Presi dent, Mr. Chalfjnt, depends upon such hard suDiances as iron and steel to produce gold, while the Secretary, who sat at his riht, is willing to wait until someone gets sick and needs his attention that he may pain wealth and honor. There were three Judges, Messrs. Slagle and Ewinj, of Alle gheny county, and Hazen, of Butler, a couple of newspaper men, a State Senator, W. B. Dnnlap, of Beaver, while the others present are mainly doctors ot divinity, or on a ood way to becoming such. After a most excellent dinner had been disposed of and the cofiee and clears were pro duced President Chalfant rapped for order, and in the style that has made hiin famous during numerous banquets of the associa tion, introduced the speakers. Prof. W. C. JilcClelland verv clibly handled "Our Mother Tongue." His wittv points kept his suditorj m a good humor and there was continued laughter throughout his address. Kev. J. A. Marquis, of Greensburg, told of the trials and tribulations of tbe impe cunious clergyman. One of his points was that a preacher would make an excellent Indian agent because he has learned diplomacy by successfully handling the church choir, sewing circles and other war like societies. He argued that such a man could easily change a ghost dance into a dance o" praise to the Government. George Welshous told of the power of the press and the good chance for young collese in n in that profession. He s.iid that a lawyer reaches ueruaps a score of people daily, a doctor decides the fate of half a dozen, and a minister talks to S00 or so eaih Sunday, while in Pittsburg three newspa pers furnish a chance for each reporter to address 30,000 people daily. There are now two Washington and Jefjerson men in that profession in the citv. Dr. T L. Hazzard eulogized the medical profession alter fiist declaring that it was entirelv unnecessary, and Judge Ewing told how the lawyers from the college are progressing. Prof. J. A. Moffitt, President of the col lege, told of the hopes lor success to come. A new gymnasium and commencement hall are lo be constructed. He also spoke of the modern idea of colleges giving a smattering of everything and not a thorough knowl edge of anything. The election resulted in the re-election of the old officers as follows: President, Mr. Chalfant; Vice President, Mr. Clark; Sec retary, Mr. McClelland; Treasurer, Mr. Ptewart; Executive Committee, Messrs. Ewing, McClung, Hazzard, Hampton and luzear. A CHAEMIKG COKCEHT In the CUapel of the Pittsbors Female College Latt Eiening. Shortly alter 8 o'clock last evening Pres ident Xorcross, of the Pittsburg Female College, ushered into the chapel the thre-s young ladies who were to take Dart in the soiree musicale, the director, Theodor Sal mon, having preceded tiiem. An audienco o! refinement and culture filled the chapel and gave each of the performers a pleasing reception upon their appearance, and after ward enthusiastic encores. The lady inspirits- the most interest, as it was her initial appearance in the city, was Miss Blanche Kcwcomb, the Berlin violinist. She was third on the programme, and played a "Bal lade and Polonaise" by Vieuxtemps, with Mr. Salmon accompanying on the plan . Her handling of the bow was artistic out. finished, and though the accompaniment at limes drowned the violin almost entirely, enough could be heard to establish Miss Kewconibas a talented musician. In ap pearance she is a prepossessing Monde of medium height, with an expressive countenance. Miss Xewcouib appeared also in "Adagio from Third Suite," Kies, and in "Spanish Dance," Sarasate. In "Xell" Miss Marv B. Kier appeared first, anil aroused considerable sympathy for lne man who, crazed by drink, took the life f a fellow creature and paid the penalty on the gallows, and for his heart-broken inolner, who told the story. "Harry and I" was another selection of the established elocutionist "Protestations," with violin ebligato and "Oh, Promise Me," were the tongs that Miss Mary Bankard rendered with admirable effect, and Mr. Salmon suc cessfully intemreted Schumann, Chopin, Toerslerand Liszt. THE SWEDISH MALS QTJABTET ALsUts Many Friends of lite Y. M. C. A. to a Very Kujojable livening. The Swedish Male Quartet sang to a large audience under the auspices of the Y. 3L & A. last evening at Old City Hall. Tfee quartet includes Charles A. Skoog, first tenor; Henri Pnch, second tenor; A. Esiil Stoosr, bartone; H. W. AVennerberg, basto and Miss Vida J. Skoog, accompanist. Miss Lura Barden, an elocutionist of note, appeared with the quartet, and much to the disappointment of the audience substituted "The ew Year's Party" lor "Aux Italiens," by Lytion, which was an expected treat on the programme. Her recitations, interspersed with the musical numbers, were received with the same appreciative -applause as weie the numbers rendered by the nartet. Her selections were a scene "from London Assurance," "The First Settler's fctory," and "The Xew Year's Party." The quartet rendered a vocal march, "Sangare." a serenade, "Sofiro," "Firieri J'ulka," a "Lnlliby.-a "Waltz Song," and "Home, Sweet Home." The various mem bers of the club were also heard in solos, Sir. Puch in "Blown Eves," Mr. Skoog in "The Angel at the Window," and Mr, Wennerberg in "Out on the Deep." A humorous trio by Messrs. Skoog, Puch and Skoog, was one of the enjoyable features of the programme. The quartet, individually feed collectively, possesses wonderful vocal jwwer, which was oisplayed during the evening to the best advantasc The last tatertainment of the course will be given Friday evening, March 27, by Marshall P. "Wilder, of cw York, and the Ollic Torbett Concert Company. The Miller Family Concert.

Brockett, "William M. J Bogqs, John A. Strouss, E. Edstrom, John A. Bell, pianist, succeeded last evening in giving a very pleasing entertainment at the Wylie Avenue Vi P.Church. The numbers were musical and elocutionary, and the local fame of all parties appearing was con siderably increased by the evening's per formance. The proceeds benefit the church in which the entertainment was given. A T3EAT WITHOUT PEICE. Excellent rrogrammo for the Forty-Second Free Organ Kecital To-Day. The forty-second free organ recital at Car negie Hall, this afternoon, will be of rare interest, judging from the names of the com posers from whom Organist Wales has made careful selections. The vocal numbers will be provided by Mrs. Carrie Angell, who was indisposed last Saturday and could not ap pear, and by Miss Marguerite Wilson, a talented pnp'il of Mr. Foerster's.

An Attorney Who Disagrees With Some of His Legal Brethren. Attorney K. W. Sha.er is not altogether convinced that another court is necessary in this county, and he exhibits the present trial lists in both Common Pleas courts as evidence that some suits that have hung fire for two or three years have not been pushed up a rapidly as they might have been. It was stated before the Judiciary Cpmmittce in Harrisburg Thursday, that it is not now possible to get a case to trial within a year or a vear and a half of the time suit is brought, but Mr. Shafer shows the present list of cases to be tried next week, and lists for weeks back, to prove that suits entered last summer have already been reached, while others have been hanging fire ior two years, and some of them were entered as far back as 1877. The trouble appears to be that some law yers get cases on the issue docket sooner than others. Mr. Shafer thinks there might be a way devised to expedite business in the courts, but be is of opinion that there are enough courts to answer present needs. A VEBY WEALTHY UTILE B0T. Soreral Millions Awaiting Him When Bo Shall Bo of Age. - J 27. Randall yesterday took out letters of administration in the County Register's office on the estate of bis deceased wife, Jfary Jane Alexander Jackson ltan dall, young English woman who died re cently, leaving a son i or 5 months old. The young man, if he lives to attain his majority. will be well fixed, as he will then come into his mother's estate and one left him by his grandfather in Manchester, England. The infant has a cousin over the oceai who is also an heir of the grandfather, and if either survive the other the survivor will get the other's share. The will is a voluminous affair, reciting with all the verbosity and particularity of such English documents all the separate pieces of property devised. It not only takes care of the mother, but reaches into futurity to provide for her offspring. An English scrivener demanded 3 for the making of a copy. BULL WHITE IN TEOUBLE AGAIN. He Snatches a Hungarian's Focketbook While in a Speak-Easy. William, alias Bull, White was arrested by Officer Devlin yesterday afternoon for robbery. He had been in a speak-easy on Second avenue, and when John Cintella, a Hungarian, drew his pocketbook to pay for a round of drinks, White snatched book and all and started off on a run. The Hun garian followed, but lost sight of White. Officer Devlin was notified and soon after ward arrested White, upon whom the pocketbook was found, but itcontained only f3 of tne original 515 of the money.

VISIT OF A MANDARIN That Has lieen the Cause of Some Speculation in This City. A CHINESE KOBLEJIAN OS A CA1L. Ha Expects to Take in Pittsburg's Mills and Manufactories. SAIS HE IS TRAYEIiIKGFOKPLEASUEB J. Sin, a Mandarin of the highest order in the Chinese Empire, and n wearer of the Imperial button, now occupies a suite of rooms at Hotel Duquesne. His presence in Pittsburg has naturally aroused much curiosity, but the many people anx ious to catch a gllmpso of this Chinese nobleman aro disappointed. He travels unattended, and claimed to be only maKing a tour of America for pleasuro and information, and is in no way connected with the Chinese legation. Frank A. Smith, of Philadelphia, who is a personal friend of the Mandarin.whom ho met durine one of his tours in Europe, was heartily welcomed by Mr. Sin. A DISPATCH represen tative was the only person, with the exception of Mr. Smith, ubo gained an audience with him yesterday. J. Sin In appearance is away beyond that of the Chinamen known to Americans. His com plexion is light olive, with dark hair and a cute little black moustache. His features are finely cut but prominent. He speaks English with considerable difficulty, but has no trouble in making himself understood. When speak ing hi native tongue his voice is low and musi. cal, .and has none of that gutteral gibberish used by coolies. Everyone of his words seem rounded and sound as pleasant as good En glish. He did not care to talk much about himself, but when drawn out bo said: A Country With No Counts. "It seems strange that Americans wish to give me so many titles, and I learn that last of all I have been called a count. We do not have counts in Cnina. I am simply a Mandarin of high order, ind am only traveling through America for pleasure. I have been all over Kurope and did not believo my experience would bo completed until I bad seen America. Everything here has impressed me favorably and the American women are the most beautiful I have ever seen. I am much interested in your creat mills and railroads and expect to visit a number of tbe manufactories here in Pittsonrg. for I am told that tbls is the manufacturing center of tbe country. As for establishing any of the American Industries In my own country, I don't know that I will do any thing of that nature at present. Tbe barriers in the way are too great. The aversion to for eign ideas is still strong in my country. When I see tbo hurry and bustle and progress here, and tben think of tbe slow pace of my native land, I can hardly understand how it can come about" Tben the Mandarin leaned over a little further ana drew his robe and an air of supe riority a little closer about him as he remarked: "Why, when your ancestry were red skinned savages, the children of China were reading text books. Tbe Great Wall of China has kept out tbe foreigners, but it has also retarded progress. Wo are a nation of 650,000,001), enormously rich, and our people are as good as that of any nation In tbo world." Some Alore Kninors Denied. The nobleman was asked if he was represent ing his Government in this conntry,and replied that be was not connected with the Chinese embassy, and that tbe Chinese Minister was now on his w ay to Peru. When asked about the report that Count Mitkiewicz was to meet him hero he said ho did not have the-honor ol tho Count's acquaint ance. Late last evening Mr. Sin, dressed In an or dinary suit of black clothes, left tbe hotel, and in company with Mr. Smith, of tbe Universal Refrigerator Company, be drove over a part of the city in a carriage, viewing the sights. One ot tbe reports circulated about Mr. Sin was that he was the Chinese Minister to this country. Telegrams from Washington yester day poured in, stating that before that Minister Iett for Peru he made a statement, which was Eubllsbed to tho effect that an attacbe of the egation, named Tu Ten Ku, hid resigned to return to China; that Tu Yen Ku was not com missioned by the Minister to transact any official business, and tbat rumors about concessions to be bad in Cbina by American bnsiness enter prlses,and statements involving any connection on the part of the Minister or any interest of the Minister in such enterprises were without the slightest foundation. Of this matter air. Sin knows nothing, he not being at all interested in it. IK spring the thoughts of home lovers turn to Mowers. THE DISPATCH has three of the bebt writers onlloricultare on its cor respondence list. Seo to-morrow's lssuo. WEL BE 25 YEABS OLD. The G. A. K. Preparing for a Onarto-Cen-tcnary Celebration.
