A Ebrean Talks Entertainingly of Country and the People Ij Whom It Is Inhabited. TEIXIDAITS TOLCAXO OF ASPHAW. Chats Willi People Met by Eeporteu Going -the Eonnds of tie City. Passenger agents of the chief roads'cen tering in Pittsburg are congratulating them selcs on the great business done during the season. It has been much greater than any former year, and runs from. 23 to 100 per cent of increase Division Passenger Agent E. D. Smith, of the Baltimore and Ohio, estimates the increase of the season's excur sion business o er last year at about SO per cent. There Tvas a peneral increase in all the excursions, but the greatest was in the seashore traffic. "If any one was to have told me last Kay," he said, yesterday, "that this sea son's business would have even reached last year's, I should have taken occasion to dif fer with him. The strikes and general dull ness of business tended to prevent expendi ture of money in this direction. The only way I can account for the great increase of business this year is on the supposition that the cheap excursions are becoming more popular, and that the people are being edu cated up to them. They begin to look for them now as a yearly thing, and to prepare for them from one year to another." COLOSXIj MOODY PLEASED. Colonel Sam Moody, District Passenger Agent for the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, said his road had done good business. "1 suppose," he said, "that the general excursion businesi on my division this season has been fully 75 per cent better than last year's. The Bock Point business has increased by 25 per cent. There are several reasons for this improvement. One is ths., excursions are becoming more popu lar, another is that in the case of societies convening in a 'Western city, the entire membership take advantage of the low rates and journey there, instead of merely sending delegates, as formerly. These excursions are also a ailed of y people whose friends have gone West, and who take advantage of the cheap round rate' to pay them a visit. And the excursion season is not over yet. We are running harvest excursions on the 15th and 29th, and I expect fully 10,000 people will run down to Rock Point on Monday. Xot less than 300 went on the Chicago ex cursion which left this morning. There is no doubt that trips are becoming more popular every year." AOTHEE GREAT INCREASE. Chief Clerk J. G. Sanson, of Colonel Tom "Watt's office, said yesterday that the special lO seashore excursions beat last season's figures by 33 per cent. They had never had a season like it. The excursions to Idlewild were better patronized this year than last br 100 per cent. They car ried 30.000 peopl ; last year and this year so far OO.oOG, with six" more excursions to run. General Paenprcr Agent A. E. Clark, of the JjjLc Erie Koaoremarked that the passenger business in general was better this year than eer. Therefore, he sup posed" ihat the number of excursionists to Alliquippa was greater than heretofore. He thought the excursion business this year was much better than last. Mr. Clark said the road would be double-tracked in fcide of 90 days. SOMETHING ABOUT KOREA. AXative .Talks Interestingly of His Country and Feople. A young Korean, an English translation of whose name is "Field," has been staying at the Merchants Hotel for the past week. E. 1L Field, as he registered, has been in this country for the last three years. He came over here with the Korean Legation, being sent to study American instuutions for the benefit of his King and country. He is now traveling about, paying especial at tention to mining and railroad affairs. He Is an 3rdent sight-seerer and very intelli gent. He says that his country, Korea, is "unknown." "Only within a few years," he said in very good English, "ha; anything been known abroad of in ' country. What little ib now kno.n is the report "of missionaries from England and America. But now the Koreans debiie tokuowinore of other people ami to be tlieni&ches better understood. The resources ot the countrv are very great, and would jield much wealth if opened up. There is poll?, silver, copper and iron in large quantities, but, so far, no one has been permUted to mine. There are no railroads in the country, and no industries. What few things are made are wrought by hand, alter the fashion of thou sands of years ago The government of the country is despotic, all power resti in the 3i..ns, who rujes thrcus'i a cabinet which executes his dictates. The people have no voice in their government. The people are intelligent and are quick to learn, but be yond the teachings afforded by the mission aries they have no opportunity. Every year sees an advancement among the peo ple, and in time there will be less restric tions on commerce than there is now." OSt ON BEff EUTLEB. A Story Told by a Lawy cr Just Back Home 1 rom Vacation. One by one the lawyers are getting home from the summer resorts, but as they haven't got down to business yet, they are largely putting in the time sw apping yarns. J. S. Ferguson told one yesterday on Ben Butler. During the impeachment trial of President Johnson an aged African came to the door of the Senate chamber and asked to be admitted. The doorkeeper repulsed him frequently, telling him that he must get a pass from some one authorized to give it, but the colored man was persistent, and raid that he had come all the way from Louisiana to see "Marse Butler," and must ste him. The colored man's persistence and patriarchal aspect finally won the day, and he was allowed in the chamber, scorn ing to go in the gallery. He walked well up to the Vice President's seat, and sitting down beside an Illinois statesman, asked to be shown Marse Butler. He was pointed out and the old man riveted his eyes upon him and feasted them as though tney'were srire and this was the cure. Af ter a time Butler rose to speak, and placing his hand on a pile of books, said, "I have my hand on thp Constitution of the United States." Wi-h concern coursing along every wrinkle of his ancient face, .the old man turned again to the Illinois statesman, and remarked in a voice audible several rows of seats distant: "Before the Jiord, Marse, iftlat'sthe case, the Constitution's done gone, sure." It was some time before Old Strabismus learned the cause of the laugh when he re ferred to the Constiution. A Very Fine Painting. "What a beautiful pioture!" exolaimcd a city girl in the Exposition art gallery last evening. "The cow stands so peacefully and quiet, while the milk maid sits on her stool, and the sweet, warm, pure milk splashes in the 'bright tin pail. 'There are no flies on that cow," remarked her country cousin, reflectively, as she thought of the busy caudal appendage of the gentle "beast in fly time. "WHEEE ASPHALT COMES 7BJOVL A Gentleman From Trinidad Talks of a Wonderful Volcano. E. iee is a gentleman from the "West In dian Island of Trinidad, who was at the Anderson Hotel yesterday. He came up from the Isles with his family, and while they are spending some time at ocean re sorts he was sauntering through the coun try. Mr. Lee said Jie was about the only American in Trinidad. The population of the island was about 200,000, composed chieflv of British, French and Venezuelans. Trinidad was only five miles from Vene zuela, and there was a good deal of smug gling across the straits under cover of the night. 'The principal products of the island," said Mr. Lee, are sugar, cocoa and asphalt. There are two mineral -springs, but the great natural feature of the island is an ex tinct volcano called La Brea. It isso called because of the asphalt or pitch which it is constantly giving iorth. This substance cannot be said to flow; its motion is too slow to be so called, but it exudes from the crater and moves very slowly toward the sides. A hale from which 10,000 tons of this asphalt were taken would have disap- Iieared again in a week. It is from this ake that the United States draws its supply of asphalt for paving purposes." The area of this particular volcano is 90 acres. The area of the island is about l,000j 000 acres, of which about 300,000 are culti vated. The island is owned by the British, and is ruled by a Governor appointed by the Crown. 60HE- HEAVY SPECULATION Gets An Allegheny Bootblack Into Bad Financial Strait. ' A party of bootblacks lounging on a pile of stones on the Haymarket Square in 'Allegheny, yesterday, were overheard dis cussing their financial affairs. "I'm in the hole, " said one. "I bought a, pair of pants that cost $2, and it ain't all paid yet." "I got in the hole a year ago," said an other, "and I've got a quarter to pay this week, and a quarter to pay next before I'm out." "How did you get In so deep?" asked one in surprise. "Lost on a speculation," was the reply. "I invented a patent outfit, where you have different places in the box for different things blacking, brushes, oil and such. I invested $3 to get them made, and couldn't sell one. Ton don't get me doing speculat ing any more." FOBCUra THE SSAS05. Diaries for the Coming Tear Already Placed on Sale. The expression that might be applied to the man who would have walked down Fifth avenue one of these sultry days last week with a winter overcoat buttoned tightly, so far as "rushing the Beason" is concerned, would just fit the firm on Wood street that has displayed in a conspicuous portion of its window, "Diaries for 1892." As a pedestrian gazed at the sign yesterday, he said: "That is mildly suggestive that someone is tired of the year already. I don't know what ill it has done Pittsburg. Why, we have scarcely reoovered from our Fourth of July celebration and are not thinking of engaging our Thanksgiving turkey yet for at least two months, and they begin to talk about diaries for the new year." A STRIKE POSTPONED. One Policeman Who 'Wouldn't 'Witness Assault and Battery. Yesterday two young men standing on Fifth 'avenue were making their best en deavors to make an appointment to meet at a later hour. As Is usual in such cases each wanted to meet the other where it was most handv for himself and as the argument grew they began talking pretty loud. Soon one of them, apparently giving in, declared loud enough to be heard across the street: 'I'll strike you right here on Fifth ave nue." ".No, you won't!" exclaimed a policeman who happened to. be along at that instant. "If you attempt to strike him on my beat I'll run vou in." , NINETEENTH CENTURY ENTKBPKISE. A Climax Beached Valuable Information to Book Buyers. The barrier to self-education is n6w re moved by the reproduction of the greatest of all literary works, the Encyclopaedia Britannica, being placed before the public at a marvelously low price and on easy pay ments. Thirty volumes, which include the five volumes ef American supplement, consti tute this work, which gives information equivalent to that of a library of a thousand volumes, so condensed as to furnish tho in formation in the least possible space, with out omitting anvthing necessary to the fullest understanding ot the subject. The purpose of an encyclopaedia is to con centrate upon every topic all that is known to date of that topic, rendering it possible for every man who wishes to keep pace with the progress of the world in every direction to do so. This great storehouse of knowl edge, into which over 2,000 of the ablest scholars of the nineteenth century have poured their offering, appeals to all classes. To the parent, because upon them more than upon all others is placed the responsi bility of surrounding the young mind with the-right kind of influences; they can, by a little personal effort inculcate in their chil dren a desire for more extended knowledge of the natural sciences and by an occasional reading to them from the Britannica, incite in them an inclination to know more of it, and thus lead them toward a real practical education, more practical often than they will obtain at their regular studies. To the student, it appeals, for at no time in life is it so essential that the impressions made upon the mind and character shall be the most correct and ot the highest order as during student life. To the teacher it appeals; for in the thousands of perplexing questions which resent themseves, requiring research, the britannica will render it easy to obtain all the information required, besides offering something new and valuable at every turn of the page. To the artisan it appeals, for every trade there is stored within the Britannica a very mine of valuable information. Every artisan will make himself more valuable and every mechanic will command better wages by using his spare time in the study of these books. He will' obtain ideas 'that will be of constant assistance to him. To the professional man, the literary man, we would say if there is a man among you who does not realize the great importance of possessing the Britannica, permit us to send you a volume of the work for your x amination, and we fee.1 confident that your name will soon appear among the thousands of your professional brethren buyers of the. Britannica. Heretofore the cost of this work has placed it beyond the reach of most people, the price being $1 45 to $2 CO, according to style of binding. To the latest advance ment in photography and printing, and no restriction- by copyright law, is due the credit of our ability to reproduce this val uable work of 24,000 pages of text matter, 8,000 illustrations and 700 maps, without an error or omission, and to ofler it at f 1 50, 2 and 12 50 per volume, this being two thirds less than the price of the original work.

WON BY THfc JLUlUJiK. ar-teaB-- ,. 1 Finance Committee Recommends the Issue of $2,000,000 Worth. ' N0.EATE 0P-CJTEEEST WAS FIXED. It WIIlBff Toted Upon the Second Tuesday of December. BINDER'S OBJECTIONS SQUELCHED The people of Pittsburg are-"to vote on a proposition to increase the bonded indebt edness to the extent of $2,000,000. The election is to take place on Tuesday, De cember 8. At a meeting of the Finance Committee yesterday the reconstructed or dinance to this effect was presented and affirmatively recommended to Councils., The money is to pay off the contractors for city work done under the defunct street act. Though there was 52,000,000 involved there was scarcely any discussion. The only point raised was by Andrew Binder, who called attention to the fact that no provision had been made as to the manner in which this money was to be raised, what time the loan was to run and what interest was to be paid. " Chairman Magee answered this with the statement that such matter would have to be incorporated in a later ordinance. There was no use in settling that matter until it was decided whether the money could be borrowed. NOT ANT NEED POB METHODS. Messrs. Robertson, Keating and Paul agreed with Magee. and such a weight of evidence satisfied Mr. Binder. The recom mendation was made unanimously. The full text of the ordinance is as follows: AVnEBEAS, Kecent decisions of the Supreme Court of tho State with reference to the leg islation relating to street and sower im Erovements In cities of the second class ave Imposed obligations on the city of Pittsburg for payment of Improvements made or authorized to ob made under the provisions of said legislation which obliga tions amount to about $2,000,000, and Whereas, Under existing laws and con tracts made In conformity therewith the bulk of such obligations will have to be paid during the coming year, and Whereas, Such payment if paid by taxa tion w ould necessitate an Increase of at least ten (10) mills In the annual tax levy, and Wnereas, It is provided by existing law (known as the street curative legislation) that the properties .benefited by said street and sewer Improvements snail be assessed the cost thereof, and Whereas. It is evident from the manner in which said legislation is being contested in the coui ts that there will be considerable delay in the collections of said assessments, and Whereas, It is provided by the Constitu tion and laws of the Commonwealth of Penn sylvania that the bonded indebtedness of cities may only be Increased by vote of tne citizens thereof, and believing that the in crease of the bonded indebtedness of the city of Pittsburg toan amount sufficient to Iiay said obligations at this time would re ievetho taxpayers from an onerous and burdensome increase of taxation, and be lieving further that the said Indebtedness will eventually be met by collection of as sessments against properties benefited; therefore DATE OP THE BOND CONTEST. Section 1. Bo It ordained and enacted by the City of Pittsburg In Select and Common Councils assembled, and It is hereby or dained and enacted by the authority of the same, That the question of increasing the indebtedness of the said City of Pittsburg to an amount not exceeding $2,000,000, shall be submitted to the electors thereof at a special election to be held on the 8th day of Decem ber, A.D., 1S91, in the manner and upon the terms provided and prescribed in an Act of Assembly of the Commonwealth of Penn svlvania. entitled "An Act to reculate the manner of increasing the indebtedness of municipalities, to proviaeror tne redemp tion of the same and to impose penalties for the illegal increase thereof," approved the 20th day of April, A. D. JSIi, and tho various supplements thereto. That the Mayor shall be and be is hereby authorized and direoted to issue his procla mation in conformity with said net and to supervUe and provide, at the expense of the city, tho ballots, return sheets and other papers necessary for the holding of said elec tion. Concerning the ordinance Controller Morrow. says: "In many of the contracts payments are due and under the decision of the Supreme Court the contractors could get judgment against the city and compel Councils to incorporate the amounts in the appropriation ordinance for next year. This wou'd run the millage np to one-third more than it ever was before. The bonds, however, will eventually be met, if cura tive legislation is sustained, by the persons on whom improvements are assessed." A EEMAKKABLE CASE. Another Case of Bearing Restored at the Electrical and Medical Institute, 42 Perm Avenue, Corner Fifth Street. Mr. P. J. Quinn, of Hazelwood, who is employed at the Glen wood Cemetery, has re covered his hearing in nine days from a point where it was necessary to conduct nil conversation in writing to where he under stands ordinary conversation distinctly, through the same treatment that Mr. George Helman received. It is reported that many others likewise afflicted are deriving benefits very rapidly. When it is taken into consideration that numcrons articles have appeared in the papers from prominent business men and others, both in and out of the city, regard ing their remarkable success in the various chronic diseases, together with the reputa tion they have gained in'restoring lost hear ing, it certainly bears out what Mr. Georee S. Sanford, a traveling salesman, says of them, tuat "tneir treatment is a godsend to humanity." The Institute is the largest and best equipped of its kind in Western Pennsylvania, consisting of special depart ments on the ground floor for the purpose of conductfng all examinations and prescrib ing medicines (which are all supplied), to gether with special operations in surgery and electricity, the upper part of the three story building being occupied for general electrical treating, both for ladies and gen tlemen, in charge of thoroughly competent lady and gentleman attendants, and is thronged with patients from morning till night, all of whom speak very highly of the treatment and results.

A nnTin Thf rfilTlCdV Pe-ru-na, which is by far the mdst reliable chili cure to be tound, not only can no uc pended on every time to stop the chills, but it does no harm to the nerv es or brain, even though it be taken in very large doses and repeated a long time. The dose of Pe-ru-na sufficient to break chills is a wineglassful every two hours for four doses during the intermission or remis sion, followed by a tablespoonful every hour until the symptoms cease, and then a tablespoonful every two hours until the cure is permanent. No other medicine whatever is required. Any medicine in this disease is better received by the stomach during the remission than during the hot stage, ft is seldom that a. second chill occurs after this treatment is begun, but the above treatment should be repeated after each chill, if any do occur. Pe-ru-na is the surest and safe'st "anti-periodic, anti pyretic in existence, and there is no need for a single failure in the use of it if it is used with persistence and judgment. But malaria is not by any means always so pronounced in its symptoms. It often will pester a person for months without making him sick abed, but making him gen uinely miserable. Creeping rigors, coated tongue, appetite changeable, cold, sweaty hands, and many indescribable sensations of genuinely disagreeable kinds. Melancholy feelings, a discouraged, listless state of mind, mental depression and confusion of the mind, surely indicate the presence of malaria. This -form is called malarial biliousness. For this "walking malaria," which neither puts one to bed nor allows him to work or study, without great effort, Pe-ru-na is a safe, prompt and efficient cure. A course of Pe-ru-na will entirely cleanse the system of every particle ol the malarial poison. Therefore, if you have any kindof bad feeling which yon attribute to malaria, by all means follow this treatment. It at once restores the appetite, clears the be fogged senses, and brings back the hopeful state of mind which malaria is sure to destroy. r , In all forms of irregular malaria like the above, which are unaccompanied by a dis tinct chill, Pe-ru-na should be taken exactly as directed on label of bottle. A person taking a course of treatment with Pe-ru-na for any malarial affection willfind not only that he will be relieved quicker than with quinine, but that his system is not deranged in the slightest particular by the drug. Pe-ru-na gently stimulates the nervous system to resist the malarial pois'on, and atthe same time gradually eliminates the poison itself from the system, which quinine or ! !l......i!..n Arnnt A v Ttl nlfl MHBI of malaria, where the victim has gone the round of all kinds of treatment, has hope fully swallowed everything recommended for the chills, and still continues to have them at the slightest exposure to cold, wet or fatigue, Pe-ru-na demonstrates its su periority over all other medicine by per manently curing all such cases.

Bnlts for Damages Brought Against Traction Companies. 0THEB W0EK OP THE COUNTY COUBTS Judge Kennedy yesterday handed down an opinion in the habeas corpus proceedings brought by It. M. Love' against his wife, M. D. Love, her father, Henry M. Long, and Mrs. Westbrook; to obtain possession of his three children. Judge Kennedy, in his opinion, stated that the reasons given in the petition for the removal of the children were: First, the immoral practices, drunk enness and profligacy of the mother; and, second, her neglect to give the children proper care. As to H. M. Long and Mrs. Westbrook, their custody of the children was only temporary, and no decree was asked for against them. , Continuing, he stated that a divorce suit between the parties was pending in Com mon Pleas No. 1, and there might be a ques tion as to whether this court had any juris diction, the disposition of the children be ing'oneofthe incidents of the divorce pro ceedings. Assuming that they had such jurisdiction, it would be manifestly im proper for them to pass on the question raised by the first reason given for the re moval of the children, it being substantially the same question raised at an earlier date between the same parties, and now the sub ject of judicial Investigation before another court, thus prejudging that case. This court would, therefore, he said not now undertake to determine the question at issue in the Jdivorce proceedings. He was alio of the opinion that it' would be im proper for him to now interfere with or make any decree affecting, the custody of the children, for either of the ressons given, for any longer period than the de termination of the divorce proceedings. As to the neglect by the mother, testimonywas given to show that there was neglect in a few instances, and she gave testimony In explanation. The father proposed to put the children tinder the care of a house keeper, and at best they would be in the hands of strangers. They are all of tender age, and only a mother could afford them such care and attention as they require. He was of the opinion that such neglect as would demand the interference of the Court pending the divorce proceedings and war rant the removal of the children from the mother, had not been shown. For the present the petition was refused. F0TJB SUITS FOB DAMAGES Entered Testerday Against Ixcal Traction Companies. ( Four suits for damages were entered yes terday against traction companies. Adam Eckert entered suit against the Federal Street and Pleasant Valley Passenger Kail way Company for ?2,000. He alleged that on August 8, 1891, a car ran into the wagon which he was driving. He was thrown from the wagon. Herman E. Caler sued the Pittsburg and Birmingham Traction Company for $5,000 damages. He stated that on July 1 he was driving along Carson street when the trolley pole ot a car caught on a telegraph wire and pulled the wire down. The w,ire in falling utmiOr Caler and his horse, severely iniur- j ing them. The horse was so badly hurt that it died a lew days later. "Valentine Braun entered suit in behalf of his son.gWilliam Braun, against the Du quesnel'Tractlon"Conipany for 51.000 dam ages. Braun on July 21 was driving a horse and wagon across the tracks at the corner of Stanton and Negley avenues. A car ran into him, wrecking the wagon, killing the horse and severely injuring Braun. Ella Dwyersued the Clitizens' Traction Company for 525,000 damages. She alleged that on August 24, 1890, she was a passen ger on a car on the defendant's line. The gripman, when the car was passing over the vault where the cable turns into the power house, neglected to release the grip and the car was brought to a sudden stop. The jolt threw the plaintiff to the other side of the oar, bruising her severely and injuring her spine. ' J0IHTS THAT NEED 011150 Taken Care of by the Court of Quarter Sessions In the Usual Way.
