THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, SUNDAY, JUNE 21, 189L

Old Probabilities and Governor Pattlson
are evidently In league on the vetoing busi
ness the former taking charge of all things
of a social nature and the latter everything
else. What rare sport Old Prob must have
had the past week as he -watched the prepa
rations for picnics, lawn fetes and excur
sions, chuckling -nith glee the meantime In
tho knowledge that when the time for their
enjoyment would arrive he would sond
down great sheets of rain, and In that way
make all present day outings retire before
thoughts of the excursion taken by Noah
some years ago!
Pittsburg has many grievances against the
smiling hypocrite, the greatest one being
that by his untimely tears he prevented en
t.rely any enjoyment of the magnificent
lnwn at "Beechwood," the home of Mr. and
Mrs. 'William X. Frew.on the occasion of the
gnind reception given there Thursday even
ing. Great preparations had been made for
the event, and the decorations on the
grounds represented several ("ays' labor by
-killed artists, and the illumination was to
have been the most perfect ever seen in tho
citv. It is no wonder, then, that the guests
ne're temporarily disappointed; but once
within the lovely homo all was forgotten in
the enjoyments of thehour. Seven hundred
guots and over were present, and yet the
spaciousness of the apartments prevented
any unpleasant crushing.
Shakespeare Oct of Doors.
It is to be hoped that such a rainy fate will
not befall the open-air production of "As
Ton Like It," which Mr. George C. Jenks is
busy arranging for. It may be given on the
Kentnahr grounds and is to be tho great
society event of the summer. Mr. Jcnks Is
in correspondence with some of the
theatrical stars of the East, and promises a
first-class cast or none at all. He hopes to
secure Marie 'Wainwright and Mina Gale
for the principal roles and others
accordingly. In spite of the sad ending of
the New York presentation on Mrs. Stevens'
grounds It was pronouncod a thoroughly
suocossful fashionable event and the most
unique of unique events. This will not be in
any sense an amateur affair, for as E. Le
gouve says In preparing his first book en
titled, "Theater De Campagne," containing
pliivs for amateurs, "An immense interval
t-eparate the veritable artist from the most
distinguished amateur," and it Is intended
to make this event a great note.
The remark of Mr. Legouve Is, however, in
these days of eloquent study subject to a
Might modification as has been wit
nessed in the carnival of elocution
hich Byron W. King, with his pupils has
8 resented to the public at the Grand
pcra House and in which there has been
some real! v very clever character represen
tKtinns. Three nlavs were given, and not
plays written for amateurs either, but such
as tx the ca liabilities of the greatest actors
"Othello " "Merchant of Venice" and "She
Stoop to Conquer." Some of the amateurs
in the carnival have not been t.o very far
i-liort of prolessionals, and as a whole the
affair ha been a great surprise, and has an
nounced to the public the certainty of a
gradual growth in this city of a school foract
me that will in time equal in all rejects the
tainoui Dion Boucicault"s school iu 2 ew York,
lino thing particularly noticeable has been
the exceeding gracefulnesi of the young per
tnnners much of hich is due to the careful
Dclsartcau teaching given them by Mrs.
King who is hnrselt n model that would have
greatly pleased the wonderful old originator
of the 63-stcm.
A Gathering or Pretty "Women.
The McKeo-Chalfant was the wedding of
the week and one who is goodauthority says
there never were so many pretty women
seen in such a small gathering in the annals
of the city. And the most noticeable pretty
ones v ere all young matrons, many of them
arrayed in their w edding gowns. A number
of handsome young ladies were present but
tlicy were outshown by the matrons.
The bride was most Dccomingly at
tired, and her mother, many affirm, never
looked so well before. The elegant uniforms
of the groom and his friends gave with their
gold braid and buttons quite a distinguished
aspect to the whole affair. The presents,
this came authority says, were by all means
the most magnificent and rarely beautiful
of any Fittsburg wedding. This fact is per
haps accounted lor by the prominent posi
tion Mr. Chalfant occupies In the railroad
and manufacturing worlds. Silver and cut
gliths predominated, and no less than seven
handsome salad sets were displayed.
SjHsakmg of presents reminds me that
one brought over from Europe by
Miss Harris Patterson, who, with
ner mother, Mra. Jane T. Patterson,
arrived home Thursday, Is a decidedly
I
pretty creation, and Mill be seen In the
lands of a very piquant little bride this
summer. It is a fan made ot quills outlined
and painted to represent a butterfly of tho
most gorgeous species, and is simply daz
zling in its beauty, especially in the evening,
when its colors show to the best advantage.

Pittsburg Is Already WeU Represented at
Atlantic City Hotels.
rSPECIAL TXXIGBAV TO TBI DISPATCH. 1
Atlajttio City, June 20. The people of
this city by tho sea were rejoiced this week
by tho presence of the thousand or so dele
gates to the forty-fourth annual session of
the American Institute of Homeopathy and
to the fourth quinquennial meeting of the
International Homeopathic Convention now
In progress at the United States Hotel. The
blue silk badges which distinguished the
delegates aro seen in every part of the
island, and while the visiting physicians
have an immense amount of work cut out
for them on the lengthy programme of
subjects to be discussed, they are contriving
to get their share of amusement, and are
already ardent patrons of most every local
amusement device.
The Pittsburg delegation Is headed by Dr.
James H. McClelland, who is Vice President
of tho convention, and who Is also Chairman
of the Committee on Medical Legislation.
The committee's report, as read In high
pitched tones by the Chairman, soundsllke
the key note of the policy of the convention.
It declares that "In the construction of the
laws providing for the establishment of
State Examining' Boards, the allopathic
school, by means of Its single board system,
Is rapidly securing controlling power to be
used In accordance with declarations of
leaders of that school for more effectively
'antagonizing,' 'smothering,' 'obliterating'
and 'destroying' homeopathic interests?'
and recommends the adoption of wise and
prudent measures for protecting and pro
moting the goneral interests of homeopathy.
Later on there is another stir of applause
when Dr. McClelland rises to reply to a paper
on Bacteriology, and a ripple of laughter
runs around the room as he concludes with
tho remark that an important element In
human existence was its ability to;overcome
the animal llfo which eilsts in the air and
food, but for which fact, the germ theory be
ing correct, "we would have been dead 1,000
years ago."
The words Qf the well-known physician
were loudly applauded, but by none more
neartiiy man oy nis colleagues, urs.o. v.
Burgher, B. F. Dake and Millie, J. Chapman.
The latter has won an enviable position In
her chosen profession, and when her clear,
unhesitating voice Is heard her words are
followed with deep interest. She wears" no
bonnet during the session, unliko her col
leagues, Dr. Harriet Sartaln and Dr. Brew
ster, of Baltimore
The policy of the convention Is aggressive.
This was clearly shown in the report touch
ing tho refusal of certain insurance com
panies to permit homeopathists to serve as
examining physicians. The programme of
proceedings, however, is of interest only to
the professional man.
An Eye on the Bathers.
The familiar faces of the regular life
guards, the fame of whose gallant deeds Is
.known to almost every visitor, are begin
ning to appear in their old positions along
the beach. As the bathing season has not
yet reached the popular point they are not
on active duty, but dally patrol the beach,
keeping a close watch on the handful of surf
dlsporters. Jack Williams, the middle
weight pugilist; Hill Parker, Ed Bradford, of
tho famous Bradford brothers, whose serv
ices as savers of human lives are known
throughout the country, and Captain Clarke,
who achieved considerable notoriety during
the great riots in Pittsburg, are among the
best known of the guards who are out and
ready for duty. There are but few Pittsburg
visitors who do not know these gallant
guardians of the beach, and there are many
who have had opportunities of shaking their
hands after they have rescued some luckless
bather from a watery grave.
There are probably more "speak-easies" in
Atlantic City Just now, in proportion to
the population, than in any other town in
tho country. This is a state of affairs
brought about by the action of the local
Council in increasing the liquor license fee
to $500. The larger hotels and saloous are
well able to pay this sum, but the burden
falls heavily on the small cottaires and
boarding houses where the guests have
always been able to secure liquors. The pro
prietors of some of the latter places have at
tempted to comply with 'the law by discon
tinuing the sale of liquor, but the experi
ment has bad a disastrous effect on their
business. The guest who has been accus-
,tomed to havlnga drink in the houso became
juuiKuuub wocu ituuseu tnu privilege, anu,
packing bis trunk, removed to some other
other house, the proprietor of which had
either paid the required fee or was suffi
ciently hardy to make faces at the liquor
ordinance by serving intoxicating beverages
without a license. So far there have been
three arrests for selling liquor without a
license, and the authorities threaten to keep
up the fight all summer, but they will as
easily regulate the ocean tides as extirpate
the merry "speak-easy," which has taken up
its residence nere lor the season.
The young man who sets the style of sea
shore apparel has arrived, and the season
may therefore be declared formally opened.
Last year this young man dawned upon the
dazzled beholders arrayed in flannel of spot
less white, cap of nautical cut. old-gold
shoes, and shirt of many colors. His trousers
were turned up at the bottom to convey
the impression that his intimate friend,
Queen Victoria, had cabled him that it was
raining in London. In a general way he was
inoffensive, although he occasionally
shocked society lfy sporting his snowy flan
nels at evening hops.
A Substitute for the flannels.
This season the youth of the period, In his
desire to be odd, has surpassed himself. As
he strolled the boardwalk yesterday the
effect was striking in the extreme. The old
gold shoes were there, but gone were the
chaste flannels and shirt of variegated hue.
In their place were trousers of somber hue
and an amazing peajacket with a double
row of large gilt buttons. A naval cap
adorned on eaoh side with gilt buttons and
in front with a sheet anchor worked in gold
completed the gorgeous costume. Whether
the costume will take is a question for time
to answer, but the young men who contem
plate an early visit to Atlantic City, and who
desire to be like the man in the coffin, dead
in it, will have to purchase a similar suit.
Tho rig has, at least, one thing in its favor
it is confusing. None but an expert can tell
whether the wearer is an admiral or a mes
senger boy.
At the Hotel Albion extensive prepara
tions are in progress getting that house in
readiness for the reception of the Pennsyl
vania State Editorial Association, which,.250
strong, are due to arrive Monday on their
annual Jaunt. The visiting scribes will re
main here several days, and as the majority
of them have been here befoio many a time,
they will have no trouble In thoroughly In
specting the elephant in that time. The
fact that Mayor Hoffman's order.increasing
the local police force came simultaneously
with the announcement of the intended
visit of the Editorial Association Is signifi
cant,' although the Mayor insists that the
coincidence was purely accidental and with
out malice prepense.
Prominent sojourners by the sea are as
plentiful as bad words In flytime, and you
can't throw a stone without hitting a well
known visitor. I stood on the boardwalk
the other day watching the stream of pedes
trians that flowed by, and out or curiosity
noted the names of prominent people who
drifted past during a half hour. Tho list of
names thus secured was long and
varied, and includedT men of mark
in every walk of life. Cardi
nal Gibbons, of Baltimore represented
the clerical element. He is resting here at
the house of tho Augustinlan Brothers as the
guest of the Rev. Father Fedegan, the pas
tor of St. Nicholas' Church.- Hon. Bufus
Blodget, United States Senator from New
Jersey; Congressman J. C. Burrows, of Mich
igan, Speakerpro tern of the House of Rep
resentatives; Hon. John Russell Young, ex
Minister to China; Hon. Andrew Fulton, ex
Mayor of Pittsburg; Henry W. Raymond,
Brivate secretary to Secretary Tracy; H. C.
uval, private secretary to Chauncey M.
Depew; Paul Boyton, the famous swimmer;
Judge M. Russell Thayer, E. F. Albee, John
A. Forepaugh and John J. Jermon, a trio of
great Eastern theatrical managers, all
strolled by the ocean pavilion where I sat
durlngasborthalf hour.
Haifa similar observation been taken a
day or so earlier, the kodak would have
causht many other well-known faces of -si.
iters who jy this time bare packed therr
trunks nnd departed. Hon. W. T. Marshall,
of Allegheny; Hon David Porter, "red
headed'and hopoful," one of the recently
appointed Judges of the newly created
court in Allegheny county; Deputy Sheriff
John Doyle, of Pittsburg, and Philip Fllnn,
a brother of Senator Fllnn, wore all in the
throng that slipped past earlier.

VEBY BUST AT CHAUTATJQTA.
Lots of Improvements Will Astonish the
Visitors What Pittsburgers Are Doing.
rSFECIAL TELEOKAM TO THE DISPATCH.
CHAUTAuquA, Jnno 20. The thoughts of
CHautauqua devotees are beginning to turn
with pleasant anticipation to the summer
pilgrimage to their Mecca. That little lake
of the Indian name "cuddled doon'1 among
the low hills of Western New York possesses
a universal attraction that the purely fash
ionable watering place cannot claim. It is
cosmopolitan. On Its shores of gently un
dulating green meadows, freckled with
woods, a congenial home is provided for
every class.
At the other end of the lake is Jamestown,
the city of soventy times seven hills,reached
by a narrow, sinuous outlet lined with trees.
Jamestown glories in about 17,000 popula
tion, and on the strength ot this has under
taken Daring and electric lighting. Imagine
Jamestown's outpost of hills dotted with
electric stars! What a brilliant sight it will
presont as one unexpectedly catches
glimpses of it at a sudden turn in descend
the dark outlet of an evening! The street
railway company is changing its motive
power to electricity, and when the summer
visitors arrive they will find artistic vesti
bule cars, finished in black and gold outside
and white and gold Inside, with richly up-
noistereo. seats, cunameu winoows. incan
descent lights and an almost aggressively
clean and proper and elegant air.
The Improvements at Chautauqua.
Just at present Chautauqua Is In an unat
tractive state, owing to the piles of rubbish
and building materials. Many cottages, at
an average cost of $2,000, are being erected
this spring. Among the finest is a $4,000
summer home for Dr. T. L. Flood, of Mead
ville, Pa., editor of the Chautauquan. An ad
dition is being built to Bishop Vincent's cot
tage. The hotel is transformed by drab
paint, white blinds, dark sashes and terra
cotta dome. In Miller Park, facing the lake,
a handsome $10,000 arcade for stores and
booths is being erected. A much needed
railway station is in process of construction
near where the old station and promenade
were situated. A woman's pavilion costing
$3,000 is contemplated. In all about $50,000
will be exnended in imDrovements.
With charming originality of thought and
expression the Chautauqua management
gravely announces that the prospects for a
successful season are brighter than ever be
fore. This year as well as next will be Co
lumbus year, preparatory to tho World's
Fair. The stereopticon lectures will be on
America, American history literature, gov
ernment and social conditions. The illumi
nated fleet will represent the landing of Co
lumbus. In short, the programme will be a
systematio course of Instruction on our na
tive land. Many of the old favorites among
speakers, musicians and elocutionists have
been secured. Dr. J. M. Buckley, Mrs. Julia
Ward Howe, Dr. Richard T.Ely, Mrs. Mary
A. Livermore, George Riddle, Mrs. Zerelda
Wallace and Frances E. Willard are among
the promised attractions. Rogers' Band and
Orchestra will again give twilight prome-
naae concerts at tne pier, xne corps or in
structors will be much the same as hereto
fore, with the exception of Dr. J. W. Dicken
son, of Boston, formerly principal of the
Teachers' Retreat, and Miss Mary B. Dennis,
teacher of the Walking. Science Class for
Children, who have resigned their positions.
The Attractions at Ijikewood.
As Chautauqua is famed for its educational
advantages and daily lectures and enter
tainments, so Lakewood is known for its
fine hotels, fashionable class of guests and'
gay social life. It has the most imposing
appearance of any of the points, with its
stretch of perfectly kept lawn and flower
beds and its two elegant hotels on the lake
front, rno sterungwortn, moueieu alter an
English iun, would delight the heart of the
most exacting Anglomanlac. An English
drag will o one of its new features this
year. A large greenhouse has been added to
the Kent llouse. Both hotels are undergo
ing repairs. Here, also, much building is in
progress. Paul J. Sorg, of Mlddletown, O.,
the million:) iro tobacco manufacturer, has a
$10,000 cotwge under way. Colonel J. M.
Schoonmakor, of Pittsburg, and Colonel An
drew Cowait; of Eouisvllle, are erecting mag
nificent sninmer residences. Some of the
other builders are -W. L. McCord, of Pitts
burg: Hon. Lewis Gunckel, of Dayton. O.;
John C. Baker, of Cincinnati, and M ss For
syth, of Allegheny City. It is proposed to
build an opera house and provide the best
attractions throughout the season.
There will be two lines of steamers on the
lako, and competition has reduced the
price of season tickets to $4. They will not
be sold after July L .
THE 8u"MHEB WHITE HOUSE.
President Harrison and Family Enjoying
Themselves at Cape May.
rSriCTAL TELEOBAM TO THE DISPATCH.
' Capi Mat, N. J., June 20. With the ar
rival of the Presidental family Thursday
afternoon the season at Cape, May opened
for 1891. The family are pleasantly located
in their beautiful marine villa overlooking
the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay.where
they will spend the entire summer, with the
exception of a few days which they may
take for a visit to other resorts, or may
spend somewhere in a business way. Mrs.
Russell Harrison and Mrs. McKeo.who spent
a great deal of last summer here, axe now in
Europe, and are not expected to visit the

part of August. The cottage has been put
In thorough repair for the occupancy of the
family, and there is no finer seaside viEa on
the Atlantic coast since it has been re

Tuesday, and hereafter he will probably
visit the family about once every two weeks.
By invitation of Mrs. Harrison, Mrs. General
George E. Williams and Miss Ella Warfleld
came with the party, and will remain at the
cottage for a short season. The President
has been working very hard lately, doing
double duty, owing to Secretary Blaine's i ill
ness, and he was thoroughly tired out when

and he can now dispose of his work with
still greater promptitude.

vention of the Master Mechanics of the
various railroads of the United States have
been held at the Stockton Hotel.whero about
800 to 900 delegates, with their wives and lady
friends, have been with them. Their social
entertainment has been as successfully car
ried out as has their business session.
Wednesday night they enjoyed a grand ball
at the Stockton. Amajorlty or the delegates
left on a special train for their home yester
day mornlnir.
There is an aristocratic Southern family
stopping at Congress Hall this season who
attract a great deal Of attention. The chil
dren of the family are well-dressed, but go
bare-footed. This Is certainly peculiar for
Cape May. ,
Among tho attendants nt the Master Me
chanics; Convention was 'H. P. Robinson, of
Minneapolis, one of the Cltlzbns' Committee
of that city to make efforts to have the next
Republican National Convention held In
Minneapolis. When Chlcagogot the World's

ment that Chicago would help tho Minnesota

the gay costumes of visitors. The old timers
who are here are highly pleased with the
many improvements. One of the most nota
