THE FTrTSBTJRG- ' DIHPATOH, , SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 20, 18Mi
Tlotory at last perehos on the 'banners of a
rtnrdy band of Lawrence vlllo comrades
who started out five months ago to organ
ize a new post.
There vi oro those of courso -who said It
could not be done, and the odds were fcar
t ally against the ambitions veterans, bnt on
last Tuesday, after many disappointing de
lays and a wearisome wait of weeks, they
received word from Department Comman
der Boycr that the application had bcea
granted and to go ahead and prepare for
muster.
The cause of the movement for a new post
Is pretty generally tnown now among the
comrades; how strained relations grew In
that big family known ai Poat 41, which had
dwelt so loac, peaceably and prosperously
together: how the two factions could not
longer live In harmony together and how
one side thought the Dest av out of the
difficulty the way that would be to the best
Interests of the organization would be to
withdraw and form a new pot. The strong
prejudice against encouraging factional
troubles by granting a charter to a seceding
faction, was an almot invincible obstacle in
the way of workers for the new pot, but all
barriers were broken through, all objections
put to rout and the victors held their im
pregnable TJOition successfully. The De
partment Commander, after herring both
sides, left the matter to a commission of
prominent local comrades, who, after care
ful deliberation, unnninioasly decided in
favor of the applicants.
The charter list of the new post embraces
the names of comrades who woro for years
leading and active members of Tost 41. They
aro wedded to the cause, are faithful and
loyal and may be depended upon to make
the new post one of the best in the depart
ment. But the new organization is not
wholly dependent upon veterans who have
previously belonced to the Grand Army,
for a number will be mustered at the organ
ization who will then don the bronze star
for the first time. There will bo about 40
members at the muster in and they expect
the membership to be at least 100 by the time
of the Department Encampment meeting
hero in February.
The muster ln.which will probably he held
In Union Veteran Legion Hall, on Sixth ave
nue, i ill be a bijj affair. Eemg such on un
usual ceremony in this city it will attract
great attention. Host of the comrades
thought tnat the day of new posts in the
city was a thing of the distant past and that
one could not possibly get a charter. The
comrades who will compose the new organi
zation will meet to-morrow evening In the
parlors of Comrade Price, on Thirty-ninth
street, where arrangements for the muster
in will be made, officers nominated, etc.
Comrade William O. KusseH, of Post 151, will
iroro than likely bo the mustering officer.
Monday night will be the regular meeting
nieht of the post, if it be satisfac
tory to all. The comrades have op
tions on two halls in Lawrenceville.
The outlook for a strong organization is ex
cellent. Following is a partial lUt of mem
bers the new pot will start with: J. B.
R01.9 P. C.; A. J Reid, P. a; George S. Wood,
P. C.- D S. Blackburn, John Atkinson, Will
lam R. Prvce, John Tucker, James Black,
William Watkins, J. Stormer, J. Horn, Will
iam WcWilliams, Charles Gross, William
Gunderman, J. Dickson, J. Miller, George
Meyers, John D-alzell, Charles White and
others.
Homestead 51 onnxnent Dedication,
The Homestead monument dedication
last Thursday w as in tho truest sense of the
word a success. Great credit is due the
comrade of Homestead for the management
of the afiair, but greater credit is their due
for raising such a beautiful tribute to the
fallen dead. A number of prominent com
rades from Pittsburg were present in addi
tion to tho members of Post 117, who turnod
out in strong numbers. Post 1S1, of Brad
dock; Post B9. of McKcesport, and Post 561,
of Dravoburg, all turned out well. Post
2CS, of course, did itself proud. Tho boys
marched well and made a nno appearance.
Post Department Commander Dennlston
was Chief Marshal of the parade. In the ab
sence of Comrade W. D. Moore Comrade A.
B. nay delivered the address of the day.
Without preparation ho made a finished and
entertaining address, which did full justice
to the worthy subject.
Some of the comrades will never forget the
kindness and hospitality of Dr. Gladden,
member of one of Pittsburg's Examining
Pension Boards. He is not an old soldier,
but his heart is as right as though he had
fought In all our wars, for he entertained
royally all the Pittsburg veterans bo could
corral, taking them to his elegant residence
and inviting them to a fine supper.
Veterans on the Warpath.
Sharon encampment, Xo. 53 Union Veteran
Legion, has passed the following resolutions,
relative to the retention of a portion of the
pension money received by the inmates at
the Erie soldier s homo.
Whereas. The board of trustees of the
Pennslania Soldiers and Sailors' Home, at
Erie, Pa, at a meeting held at Harrisburg,
Pa., on May 20. 1891, adopted resolutions
confiscating to themselves lor the use ot tho
home 80 per centum of the pensions of pen
sioners residing at the home; therefor, be it
Resolved, By this encampment that, while
wo acknowledge that there are some cases
In which pensioners do not make the best
use of the money thev receive from the
Government, o consider the indiscrimi
nate confiscation of 0 per centum of the
pensions of the inmates of tho home by
said trustees as uncalled for, as beneath the
dignity ofa great and grand Commonwealth
llko Pennsyl ania.
Resolved, That the promise to apply a
portion of this confiscation to the support
of the families of pensioners is misleading
in that it promises nothing, merely saying
that "they may at their discretion do so and
so," and not that they will.
Post 151'a Memorial Volumes.
Tho formal presentation of Post 151's me
morial volumes last Thursday evening was

Chicago Is still bringing up now schemes by
which a grand military display can be made
during the World's Fair. The latest plan,
hy which she hopes to have 100,000 militia
men from the various States attend the
great fair, is the laying out of a camp ground
contiguous to the fair grounds capable of
accommodating 5,090 or 6,003 troops at a time,
and to permit its use for one week by the
different States in turn. It is said the
scheme will be Dacked to the extent of $CM,
000. Battery B has now 83 qualified marksmen,
six of them being sharpshooters. Lieuten
ant Kimmel has been doing good work on
f he range this season, and expects to have
a hetter showing than any previous year.
Had the battery been allowed to ship a full
team to the Mt. Gretna shoot In plaoe of but
one man, the artillery department would
have been away up on the list. A sanad
from the battery gave an exhibition caber
drill at the Exposition last Tuesday evening
and afterward action as a firing squad In
connection with the usual programme. Two
gatllng guns were brought into use, and
owing to the inability to procure blank
shells solid ammunition was used, the guns
being aimed Into the river.
The order emanating from Colonel Ostiums,
tho general inspector of rifle practioe.
relative to the disbandment of companies
not qualifying at least 30 members, will be
carried out this fall, at least so said Colonel
Osthaus in a recent conversation with a
local officer. Just whether Colonel Osthaus
will issue the order himself disbanding the
companies, or will kindly allow the Gov
ernor of the State to discuss the matter. Is
not known, but from the drift of his remarks
in the conversation mentione 1, excuses for
fulling below tho mark will not he received.

distance from the city is seven miles, and it

Industrial drawing is to receive very im
portant consideration in Pittsburg's schools,
and great interest has been aroused byMrs.
Van Wagonner, the supervisor of drawing
in the evening classes at the South School.
Modeling in clay, scissors work and designs
In colored paper take the place of the old
fashioned drawing. The training of the
hand and eye are now the pivotal points.
The sphere, cube, cylinder and plinth, etc.,
are taught by actual formation from the
clay. One school has ordered a barrel of clay
from East Liverpool.
In the paper cutting the pupils are first
taught to form squares, then these in turn
are so folded that with one dexterous whirl
of tho scissors circles aro the result. In the
drawing books Instead of drawing the de
signs with pencils, tinted paper of different
varieties are made to assume crosses and
figures of varied shape and are then pasted
over the designs, the baokeround of which
has been prepared In dark colors. This gives
great variety to the designs. The teach
ing of color, Mrs. Van waggoner says
is certainly a very important one
and she ascribes the interest in most large
cities to the question of color-blindness in
railroad employes. She believes that pupils
can be so trained as to eradicate the more
prominent visionary defects in color. She
says that the so-called color-blindness is
much more noticeable In men than in
women, and she elves as a reason that
women are much moro interested in color
than men, particularly on account of gay
colors in dress.
Will Not Hear Ingalls.
Ex-Senator Ingalls Is a too high, priced
personage to appear before the Pittsburg
teachers. Superintendent Luckey opened a
correspondence with the ex-Senator with
the Intention of securing him to lecture at
the Pittsburg Teachers' Institute. He re
ferred him to his Lyceum Bureau, which re
plied that Ingalls would come for $500.
Superintendent Luckey, with bis usual sonsa
of keen humor, sent word back that there
are only two people in the world that could
draw for that amount Blaine or Blsmarok.
So the Bureau sent the names of other cel
ebrities to replace the name of the noted
man from Kansas.
Chance for Missionary Work.
Superintendent Luckey while speak
ing yesterday of the great increase in the
attendance at the schools of the eastern part
of the city and the decrease in the old por
tion of the city called attention to the fact
that there are hundreds upon hundreds of
Hungarian and Italian children in the old or
lower portion of Pittsburg who have not
yet seen tho inside of a school houso, or
even the outside of a sahool hook. From
day to day they roam the streets, their
habits daily growing worse. Such ohildren
he says ought to be compelled to attend
school of some kind.
Teaching Tonne; Housekeepers.
Miss Ballon has added another inter
esting feature to her popular cooking
school at the Grant school. Heretofore the
attention of the pupils has been directed to
tho preparing of toothsome dishes only.
She now proposes to instruct them in the
preparation of the dining room, that is, the
setting of tho table and other effects that
have so much to do with the whetting of the
appetite and the enjoyment of a good meal.

The resignation of Miss Laura Boyce, of
the Moorhead school, will take effect next
Friday in vie w of her approaching marriage.
Fon a week past the question among the
teachers has been "When is pay day!" Sec

ant warranto Monday, September 28, Three
months without a pay day leave the
teachers' pockets in a very depleted condi
tion. So popular is the Sloyd industrial system
which Is being taught at the Forbes school,
that every school in the city, nnd there are
certainly many of thorn, has asked to have
the system introduced next year for the
benefits of its people.
Already there ore a dozen applicants here

TART
THE
WHEEL
FOR FALL BUSINESS.
FINE FALL
SUIT
FOR GENTLEMEN.
We have opened an assortment of these, which, if
you search the State from end to
end, you 11 not be able to match.
An immense line of Sacks and
Cutaways in the more durable
Cassimeres and Cheviots for busi
ness wear at $8, $io, $12 and
$15. Not two or three suits of
a price to choose from, but scores
made up in the most stylish and
becoming materials the market
affords, the workmanship of which
will please you.
FINE DRESS SUITS.
The assortment is .equally large
and varied. Fine Cassimeres
and Cheviots, Imported Worsteds,
Thibets, Corkscrews, and silk
mixed goods. At $15 and above,
say between that price and $22,
you'll find a variety in which you
jcannot fail to be suited.
It takes custom work, and that
of a high order, to compete with
the suits we are showing this
season at the prices named. When you have looked over
the assortment you'll find that the last excuse for having
your new suit made to order has been swept away.
FALL OVERCOAT:
In quantities greater than you'll have the time and
patience to look at In quality and prices that cannot fail
to strike you favorably. Every style that's fashionable is
here. The short coat for stylish young men, or the longer
style for gentlemen of more conservative tastes.

We set the pace in style and price and others attempt to follow.
At the present time our entire store is crowded with an array of
fall merchandise which will tempt the careful as well as the careless buyer.
We're not shouting bargains and cut prices before the season is
fairly open, as is the manner of some, but we undertake to guarantee

affect the price.
We are in the field with all the
new and popular styles at from
$1.98 to $3.24.
