SCHOOLS FOR TRADES.
The Exposition Society's Plan for
Polytechnic Institutions
FAVORED
LOCAL BUILDERS.
Report of the Committee Appointed to Look
Up tlie Matter.
MECHAMCS" LIEN BILL INDORSED
The Builders' Exchange held an impor
tant meeting yesterday afternoon at which
vras considered a proposition from the Ex
position Society to have established in con
nection with that institution polytechnic
training schools. The matter has been
under consideration with the Exposition
Society for some time, because there is a
provision in their charter compelling them
to hare something of the sort connected
with the Exposition. The subject was first
brought to the attention ot the Builders'
Exchange through the following self-explanatory
communications:
Office of the westeks
possvlvama exposition societt.
PITTSBURG. fA, Jlaich 6, 1831.
To the President of the Banders' Exchange:
Dear bin Our people are taking up the
matter ot establishing polytechnie schools, and
by request ot Jlr V. B. Luptoo, of our direc
tory. 1 enclose 3 ou a copy of the report of a
committee appointed to look into the subject,
which may be of some Yalue to jour boar. The
matter is at present in an embryotic state and
any suggestions you may nave to offer will be
gladly considered. Vours, trolv.
T. J. Fitzpatrick,
Assistant Secretary.
The following is the report:
Report of the Committee.
To the President and Board of Directors of the
Pittsburjr Exposition Society:
Gemxemen The committee appointed by
yon to report on the matter of traaes schools,
in submitting tbeir report, wish to say that
after a very careful inspection of some ot the
best schools in the land, and much information
gathered from other sources in Boston, New
York. Woicester and Brooklyn, we are satis
tied mat such education is desirable and possi
ble; but as to how it should be carried out in
the present financial condition of j our associa
tion, jour committee does not assume to point
out or suggest.
Wailing your instructions we submit the f ol
lowinc report
True rhilanthopy helps the needy to help
themselves. Enforced idleness is one of the
gieat evils of the day. The outh of both
sexes who possess natural ability.both physical
and mental, should be so trained as to fully de
velop that ability, that the idividual first and
the community next, should receive the full
benefit of such strength. The public school, as
now conducted, does not afford the remedy.
The knowledge of letters, "good m its place,"
does not qualify for the practical duties of the
masses.
The ncreasing millions in our cities witnnut
opportumly to cultivate the soil, must depend
on either common labor, often overcrowded,
and always poorly paid, or on the know
ledge and application of borne mechanical
occupation. For the latter, there is no open
door. As a rule no possibility of a training. A
very few are admittea to the trades. Another
few may by dint of application and persever
ance bj hook and crook, pick up imperfectly
such knowledge as will enable tbem to squeeze
through. But there is still a multitude left
helpless, lost for want ot an opportunity. Such
has been the case, and such it must continue to
be, until some well digested plan shall take
shape and come to the rescue.
Kciorms the Reso.lt of Great Wrongs.
Great reformi are always the result of the
knowledge of great wrongs, and often come of
necessity more or less pressing. The foremost
thinkers of the day are earnestly at work to
devise some plan for the supply of this want.
Among tbem is the system of schools of science
aud arts, too Inch, ton slow and too expensive
for the masses, but valuable as far as they can go.
Next, and what seems Destto jour committed
is the "school of trades," not necessarily con
nected with any Inch school or unhersity.
(Perhaps foi the most common clashes, better
separated). Thi- simply calls for a suitable
low. cheap buildinz. with rou -h workbenches.
forges, tables, lathes eta. with suitable tools
and implements for large clashes, aud each
trade to have one or more suitable instructors,
with blackboard, drawing Instruments, blue
prints, eta, of the cheapest kind, raw materi
als, wood, iron, lead, paint, bricks and mortar
and other suitable material for bnys. While
for the girls the arrangement must be for such
facilities aud material as will suit their trades.
Needles, thread, cloth, sewing machines, type
writers, cooking apparatus and the like. Add
to tbisthecomlortsof a lecture room, library,
models and such other helps as the founders
may teel able to prosure. The number of
trades can onlj be limited by the inability of
the directory to go farther. The common
trades should receive the first attention.
In the opinion of your committee such an en
terprise well conducted in our city would meet
with public favor and gain strength with age.
The fact that jour board can supply valuable
buildiugb.witb. possibly, light, heat and power,
fnim jour own supply of gas, would be a valu
able Mart, which we believe can be supple
mented with the necessary funds to begin on a
plain scale.
This is not an experiment, but is in lull
operation in several places both in this country
and in Europe with highly satisfactory results.
In conclusion, we further beheve'that our
great manuiactunng city would be immensely
benefited by such schools, by conterting a
now almost useless element into most valuable
artisans and workmen in our great factories,
and at the same time confer a lasting blessing
on a large and helpless class of worthy citizens
of both sexes. Respectiullv submitted.
William McCuxiiy,
D. C. XtlPLEY,
Committee.
Heartily in Favor of the Scheme.
The Exchange discussed the proposition
fully, and quite a number expressed them
selves as being heartily in favor of helping
to establish the schools, and accordingly
the Secretary was instructed to notify the
Exposition Society that whenever the latter
was ready to go ahead with the scheme the
latter would be ready to co-operate and do
anything in its power to make the enter
prise a success.
The Walton bill. No, 230, known as the
mechanics' hen bill, now before the Legis
lature, was also discussed, and a motion to
indorse it was passed unanimously. This
is the bill being pushed by the Builders'
Exchange of Philadelphia, and which
makes the contractor practical owner of the
ground upon which new buildings are to be
erected.
J. G. Snyder, representing the Building
Trades Council, who has been in Harris
burg for the last week working against the
bill, said last night he did not see how the
bill could pass, although he had heard the
representatives ot the Philadelphia Ex
change say they wonld spend $10,000 belore
they would see it defeated. Members of the
House think it is an unconstitutional meas
ure, according to Mr. Snyder.
There was no action taken by the Ex
change on the eight-hour question.

It is more than likely that many readers
of The Dispatch will agree with H. B.
Wayne, of Whiteville, Tenn., in his opinion
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He says:
"I take pleasure in recommending it to the
public as being a medicine of gre.it worth
and merit The manufacturers of that
remedy certainly have been great benefac
tors to suffering humanity." One of the
inovt valuable properties ot'this remedy is in
its pcircr oT loosening and relieving a cold

workmanship, and we let them
go out with 110 fear of any un
pleasantness afterward. Any
of our Suites under $36 are
equal to the general run of
such goods. Made, as they
are, for a certain selling price,
you can expect but very little
as to quality. Reme7nber,
then, that at $36 and over the
best of workmanship is given.
Under this price you can get
no more than what we can ex
pect from the manufacturers,
and that is very little, and poor
workmanship at its best.

You can't possibly get a new hat
too soon. The new one will afford
you all the protection that the old,
dusty and greasy one does, and
prices will be no lower a month
hence than now. We have in stock
every shape hat that's manufactured
that's in style. We can sell you the
Knox, Youman or Dunlap shape,
made on the same block, made by
the same men, and save you at least
a third of the price asked by ex
clusive hatters.
.We illustrate herewith three of
the leading styles this spring. The
top one goes by the name of the
"Manhattan," and can be obtained
in different heights of crown and
widths of brim. It is a .popular
hat with gentlemen of the metropo
lis, and you'll soon see a great
many of them on the streets of
Pittsburg.
The center one-is one of the most
sensible shapes in the market to
day. We've named it the "Gusky."
We secured 100 dozen of these from
a party who supplies a well-known
hat manufacturer whose goods are
never offered at retail for less than
5. Last Saturday, to commence
the hat business with a rush, we
offered them at the low price of
$2,49, $2,49,
They were called for in great num
bers. We will continue to sell them
at this price during Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday of this week.
If you want to get one of these at
about half their real value, come
quick.
The lower cut is an illustration
of the "Fifth Avenue" Silk, the
shape which stylish dressers will
wear this season.
We also carry an immense stock
of School Hats, Boys' Derbys and
Children's Hats.
Altogether, we sell more hats
than any other three stores in this
city. There must be a reason for this.
It lies in the fact that we give better
value in hats than can be obtained
elsewhere.
