.MISS WASHBURN AXD nER LATE DEBUT
Tills Gathered tj Eriwrters During Stroll's Ttamfli
Two Cities.
T. Yuylsteke, of Brussels, Belgium, was
a guest at the Duquesne yesterday. He is
a brewer of the Belgian capital, and has
been a few weeks in this country on a pleas
ure trip. He spent the morning inspecting
the Braddock rail mill, and went down to
McDonald later to see for himself oil spout
ing from the ground. He says This is a
wonderful country, and that but a very
limited idea of its importance and wealth
is understood abroad. Speaking of Belgium,
Mr. Vujlsteke faid:
"'Trade in general is not very good at
present, and the great mass of the workine
people are not very well ofE They are not
discontented, though, and manage to get on
fairly welL One thing about Belgium is
that the countrv is overcrowded. "Why
don't we send some of them over to Amer
ica? Well, we can't expatriate them, and
if they wont go themselves, what are we to
do? There .s no reaon, in Belgium, why
the people should emigrate. The four
reasons which induce emigration in Europe
are wanting in my country. People emi
grate rather than serve during a war; they
are also driven out by poverty; a despotio
government olten sends many people to
foreicn lands, and Belgians, unlike other
Europeans, are not travelers, and so, acquire
little informationjibout foreign lands.
yEITIIEn KICH XOR rOVERTT-STRICKET.
"While the bulk of the laboring class in
Belgium is far from wealthy yet they are
not poor. They have no fear of war and the
Government is liberal."
"Rut when they hear from their country
men on this side how much better wages are
paid has it no effect in inducing them "to
emicrate?"
"Ah, but do they hear? Xo; they know
nothing of this country. They don't know
that they can get any better wages here than
they do at home. The Belgians who come
here are careful not to write anything
that would induce others to follow.
At least, so I have been told. A friend of
mine told me this. He came over one time
to this country, and there were a good many
glassblowcrs on the ship, They told him
they were going to cam very much money
in glajs factories in America. He said to
them, 'Well, when vou get settled. I sup
pose you w ill w rite liomc and tell the others
of vour good fortune.' They said 'Ah, no;
Are have taken an oath not to tell the people
,at home how much money we make" The
Union made us promise that, or we couldn't
' come. They made us take an oath.
"What union was it Mr. Vuylstcke?"
SILENCE IMPOSED JVT AN OATH.
"Ah, I don't know. They told my friend
some union or association had imposed si
lence upon them not to say to the others
what wages they got. Glass blowers in
Belgium eirn about i- or S3 a day at the
most. Yes, the country is certainly over
crowded, and that is why every kind of
labor is so cheap. Perhaps a cood -many
would come to America it they knew about
the higher wasres."
Mr. Vuj lsteke says that Belgian beer is
nogood, and that American beer is far su
perior to it. He thinks railroad officials
are not nearly as polite to strangers as they
might be. and says that any person coming
to this country w ho could not speak En
chsh would find it very hard to cct along.
He says there should bean interpreter at
each of the principal depots to direct stran
gers. .
MISS WASHBUE1TS DEBUX
How Her Mother's Prejudices Were at last
All Overcome
T. S. Conners arrived in the city yester
day. In a conversation he mentioned the
Washburn failure, which hah been again
brought prominently before the public by
the haml-omc daushter of the house taking
to the Mage to contribute her share toward
the support of the family. Said he: "I
happen to know the circumstances thorough
ly. Miss Minnie received a first-class
musical education, and being the possessor
of ji wrv fine contralto voice, has always
Lea) in demand, having been sought for as
far as Baltimore She had expressed a
drire to go on the stale, but her parents
would not give th ir consent. A few weeks
M she wrote to Mr. Carlton asking for an

Not until then iiil she notifv her parents of

receiving an ahiriuativc reply, immediately
wired to Biliimorc, wheie" the company

present and sivc her daughter encourage

Atlantic Cm lor sewr.il weeks, and last
Sunda? came Aery near lo-ing four members
f the chorus, one ot whom was Miss Wash
burn. They were lloating m a small boat
in one of the inlets. The craft was drawn
tint into the breakers In the tide, and in
t-onic way was upset. Xot one of the party
could swim, lnu the boat was finally
beached, with the entire party elingiii" to
it. It was a rrv narrow escape for them.
If the boat li.ul been drawn into the heavy
breakers nothing could lme saved them."
HE HADE HIM SKEEDADDLE.
How an OM-Tiine Xeiv Yrrk Politician
Vanquished a cliooI Teacher.
A number of drummers were diseussin"
the derivation of the word "skcedaddle" at
the Anderson, when a gray-bearded member
of the tribe from New York related the fol
lowtmj: "AH the old-timers in New York," he
taid, "remember George Boul, who flour
ished as a politician in the 'GO. Though
man of some wealth, Boyd was a typical
rounder. Short of stature, broad-shouldered,
tron:; as Hercules and ever in good
humor, Iioyd had a strong pull in the
Twentieth "and Twenty-second 'wards. A
nmn of limited cdticatiou, he tried, among
Ins followers, to pose as a profound scholar,
And the waj he would sling five-syllabled
words at the heelers was enough to make
.Vmli Webster turn in his grave.
"The word M.ecdaddle' had come into
vosue among the soldiers, and was used as
a pat way of expressing a retreat or runa
way. Boyd caught on to it and rung it in
n even occasion. One night when the
bar room waic-owdd and Bovd was dis
coursing loudly, Steve Hudson a teacher in
one of the public schools, made up his mind
to strip the hide of scholarship from Bovd's
shoulders, and as lie said, 'show him up"'
" 'Mr. Boyd,' he said, vou pretend to
know something of syntaxand nrosody; now
just tell me the derivation of the word 'skce
daddle jouhave used here so often. 'The
crowd githcred around, looking expectantly
at Boyd, while Hudson was congratulating
himself on having Tailed' him. Boyd re
plied, without a moment's hesitation, 'Mr.
Hudson, the won! skcedaddle is derived, first
from the Danish 'sked,' 'to run,' and
secondly from the Swedish 'doddle,' 'away.'
Consequently yon have 'skeedaddle,' to run
away. TJoyd's "fame as a scholar was on the
ascendant thenceforward."
DIDN'T LIKE AXLE GREASE.
The Mistake an Old Virginia Colored Man
Made "With It.
"JTo one is better known throughout
Virginia than Colonel J. B, Miller, of
Pulaski county," said J. B. Thompson, of
Cumberland, at the Monongahela House.
"The Colonel says that shortly after the
war had closed, he stopped at a country
store to get the news. Walking out on the
porch he saw an old colored man gazing
eagerly and longingly at apileof axle grease
boxes, rangeu along the side ot the store.
Observing the colonel, the old man tipped
his hat and said, 'Boss, what docs Mr.
Carter ask for them little Yankee cheeses?'
The colonel said he thought they sold for 15
cents, and that if he wanted one he himself
wonld throw in a pound of crackers with it.
The old man dived into an old ed stocking
and drew out the necessary, and with the
crackers withdrew and began his feast.
When next they noticed him he was 'axle
grease' from his'chin to his eyes, but still
eating.
"Finally Miller said to him, 'Uncle Jim,
how do you like "them little Yankee
cheees?" '
" 'Say, master colonel,' was the reply,
'them crackers is about the best I ever
struck, hut that is ransomest cheeses I ever
see in my life; I reckon it's spoiled.' "
A MODEST OHIO DEMOCRAT
Thinks McKlnley Will Not Be Beaten Dy
Moro Than 30,000.
A. Ij. Jones, a prominent attorney of
Canton, O., is in the city. He is one of the
oldest and best informed Democratic poli
ticians in Major McKinley's district, and
has been a candidate for almost every posi
tion to which his party could nominate him,
from Congress down. When asked yester
day what the political outlook was in the
Buckeye State he replied:
"I do not think Campbell's majority will
be over 30,000."
"That is certainly a modest claim."
"Well, understand, I said not over 30,000;
you know it may be less."
Mr. Jones had no serious opinions to offer.
DISMISSED ITS PASTOR.
Wind-Up of the Kbenezer Church Congre
gation Excitement;
Most of the readers of this paper are more
or less familiar with the trouble's of the
Ebcnezer Baptist Church, the members of
which worshiped in the church at the cor
ner of Colwell and Miller streets. Bev.
John II. Pryor secured control, but by
some was not regarded as orthodox on the
subject of close communion, and some pre
ferred other charges against him. Among
his most strenuous opposers was Isaac Mor
ton, who died last week. T,he case has been
before the courts, the Baptist Sustentation
Society and the highest church courts, but
still Mr. Pryor held the reins.
On Friday night there was a meeting, and
the church.by a vote of 90 to 00, decided to
dismiss Mr. Pryor. He has secured the
Penn Incline Hall and will preach there
hereafter. It is said the CO members who
voted to sustain him will go with him. The
meeting was characterized by considerable
warmth.

CUPID'S BAD PRANKS.
Some of the Marital Woe3 Rehearsed
in the Desertion Court.
CALLED DOWN BY JUDGE M'CLUNG.
reter Walker Declares He Was Never Mar
ried to Kate Bowers.
JTATST DITOBCE APPLICATIONS FILED
TXe list of sociological failures billed for
a hearing before Judge McClung yesterday
was a lengthy one, but some had been set
tled and in some cases the parties did not
appear, and as most of those who came to
the scratch had private counsel, Mr. Goehr
ing's work was easy, mostly supervisory.
The case of Mrs. Deardorf against her hus
band, J. L. Deardorf, w as first called. He is
charged with having given Mrs. Deardorf a
settlement with a string tried to the con
ditions and she feared that he would not
carry out his part of the separation con
tract and wants him put under bond to
insure performance. He agreed to give her
?5 a week and keep alive a life insurance
policy in the Boyal Arcanum for 53,000 for
her benefit, and she on her part was to re
frain from interfering with him while fol
lowing put that which is right in his own
eyes. Judge McClung, while pajing the
defendant the compliment of observing
that he did not believe any of his state
ments, still said he had no power to inter
fere so long as Deardorf kept the financial
part of the agreement. Mrs. Deardorf said
she was willing to sacrifice her rights as a
wife if her husband deported himself so as
to prevent scandal.
Owen Clark did not respond, but an at
torney stated that Mrs. Clark had agreed to
a settlement and the costs would be liqui
dated.
WALKER DISPUTES THE MARRIAGE.
Mrs. Kate Walker as she styles herself,
or Miss Kate "Walker as her alleged hus
band, Peter Walker, contends is her title,
stated that she and Peter took a trip to
Chicago and on the 6th of last October were
married early in the morning by 'Squire
Becd and she further said Peter had the
marriage certificate in his possessian. She
said she was 17 years old at the time and
there was no marriage certificate,
they simply getting off the train,
going to n hotel where a toilet
was made, after which the repaired to the
splicer's office. Kate had been indiscreet
enough to write two letters, which fell into
the hands of Peter's counsel, D. B, Jones.
Kate is a buxom and very energetic young
ladv and her part in the scene in court
yielded considerable diversion. The letters
were submitted to Judge McClung. Kate
refused to acknowledge authorship, but
Peter deposed thev came from her. They
appeared to prejudice her cause with the
Judge. Peter and his counsel mainly de
voted their efforts to showing that the trip
to Chicago was a mere lark and that no mar
riage had been formed, while Kate and
her counsel, John A. Cox, attempted to
prove a valid marriage. Mrs. Best, a sister
of Kate, testified that Peter at one time be
fore the date given for the marriage had
said he would wade through blood to get
Kate.
A MOTHER'S TELLKG TESTIMONY.
Kate's mother, Mrs. Bowers, testified
that if Peter hadn't married Kate he had
deported himself as a husband at the Bow
ers mansion for several weeks, and Mr.
Bowers deposed that Peter had admitted
to witness that he was married. Mr. Bow
ers sturdily refused to be ruled by the tech
nical rules of evidence, bnt told his story to
suit himself.
Katie having' admitted that she knew
nothing of any license gotten in Illinois,
Mr. Jones contended that the circumstance
w ent to show that there w as no marriage,
as the laws of Illinois require not only a
license, but parental assent or that of a
guardian, also, where parties are
under age, . and Kate was only 17
while Peter doesn't look much older. He
then called a young lady named Matthias
who testified that Kate had told her about a
week ago that she, Kate, wasn't married to
Peter, but that she proposed to make him
support her anyhow. A Dravosburg saloon
keeper named Thorp, was next called to
show that if Kate were a married woman
some of her actions were somewhat ques
tionable and he testified, that she was one of
a quartette of two male and two females
who came to his place and asked for lodg
ings. During the njght they seemed to be
keeping up too much of a picnic for a re
spectable party, he thought, and finally
about midnight he awoke his sons and in
formed them that he thought it best to eject
the whole parly. The sons agreed
and preparations for a conflict were
made but 'when the lodgers were
exhorted to "get a move on" they got it,
ana lorce was not iiceaea. jur. xnorp was
confident that he recognized Kate as one of
the party, and that neither of the men with
her was Peter Walker. The Judge seemed
to think it a case of six of one and half a
dozen of the other, and dismissed it, divid
ing the costs equally.
THE WIFE WAJiTS A SQUARE DEAL.
Some time ago Judge Magee sentenced
William Loadman to pay his wife 52 50 per
week, baling the amount on the represen
tation otitis earnings. Yesterday evidence
was given to show that Loadman's earnings
were 56 a day, and the Court was asked to
increase the "weekly allowance, but action
was de ered until both sides could be heard.
The case of Elizabeth Lierman vs George
Lierman was called, but Elizabeth was not
on hand. George's story was hear A He
said they were married 1881 and that some
six years ago she had deserted him without
E revocation. He admitted that he had
eard since Mrs. Lierman left him she had
become a mother, but he knew not just
when and was not disposed to pass an opin
.ion.as to the paternity of the child and
further was inclined to hold that he was not
under obligation to support a woman who
lefi him without cause, as he contends. The
case was continued until Elizabeth could be
heard from. The parties reside on the South
fide. The case of Clara A. Hoffman vs William
Hoffman was also continued. Clara not
putting in an appearance and her husband
contending that she was the deserting party
and that she had left without cause.
The McElfresh case went over again for
another month.

Their
ECHOES FROM T1TE COURT .CORRIDORS
In the United States Circuit Court yes
terday Jndge Becd handed down an opinion
releasing United States Detective Mc
Sweeney from the custody of the Sheriff of
Warren county. McSweeney had arrested
the notorious Chauncey Marble on a process
issued by the Circuit Court while sitting in
Erie in July last. Marble was indicted for
counterleitlng, and when his trial was about
to begin an application was made for a con
tinuance on account of his alleged sickness,
but it was refused. Marble then failed to
appear, and his bail was forfeited. Mo
Sweeney, with others, was given the pro
cess to serve on him at his home near
Corry, and after doing so and while on
their way back to Corry with the
prisoner, the parly was stopped
by a crowd who pretended to want them
for fast driving across a bridge. McSweeney
drew his revolver and the crowd fell back
and the party proceeded on to Corry where
McSweeney was arrested later for alleged
assault and pointing a firearm.
He gave bail and the next day delivered
Marble to the court. The bail, however,
delivered him up to the sheriff and an appli
cation was made for his release on a writ of
habeas corpus. The opinion of Judge Reed
was on this point and is auite lengthy. The
case of United States Marshal Neagle, who
shot Judge Terry in California while the
former was acting as body guard to Judge
Fields is cited and taken as a parallel. The
Judge says the powers of the United States
Courts in like cases have been settled' by
the decision of the Supreme Court in that
case. Summing up the case Judge Reed
says:
It was the duty of the deputy marshal,
McSweeney, to execute the process, and to
arrest Marble and bring him to Eric He
had the right to use necessary force and to
summon aid if need be. It was his duty
to keep the prisoner in custody, and he had
a right to prevent his escape or rescue.
The arrest was authorized by the laws of
the United States, and the act for which it
is sought to hold the relator in the State
courts was one committed while in the per
formance of his duty. The detective is Or
dered to be discharged, but as he had already
been released on his own recognizance more
than two weeks ago this formality will only
have to be placed on record.

BALPH WArTTS BIQ DAMAGES.
He Claims That 8. M. Morris Has Delayed
an Iron Contract;
A bill in equity was filed yesterday by
Charles A. Ralph, the builder and contract
or, against S. M. Morris. Balph states that
he is under contract to erect an eight-story
building for C. L. Magce on Fourth avenue.
He contracted with the defendant for the
latter to construct the iron and Bteel work
to be used in the building. The work was
to be completed by October 1, 1891. Morris,
he says, represented that he was familiar
with that kind of work and competent to
construct it. Balph has since learned, how
ever, that he is incompetent and has had no
experience. He has not yet completed the
work for the first story and has delayed the
work, and has caused additional expense
by his errors.
Balph is under contract to complete the
building by March 15, 1892, and to pay 550
a day penalty for every day it takes over
that time to finish it He will not be able
to do so by reason of Morris' errors and will
be put to great loss. In consequence he
asks that his contract with Morris be de
clared void; that Morris be restrained from
doing any more work on the building, and
that an account be taken between the par
ties and Morris compelled to pay Balph the
damages he has sustained. The contract
price Balph is to receive for the building is
$230,000.
A Pittsbnrg Lady Whoso Merits as a Vocal
Teacher Are Noteworthy.
The announcement that Mrs. Adah S.
Thomas is to resume her classes in vocal
culture will be gratifying intelligence to
very many residents of the two cities and
vicinity. Mrs. Thomas is a born teacher,
possessing every requisite for the fulfilling
of such an exacting position. She is a
thorough musician, and to this is added so
pleasing a personality that pupils are
stimulated to do their best, through regard
for their teacher. Mrs. Thomas is also
known to be thorough in all her methods,
allowing no effort at inculcation to pass,
and no opportunity to be unimproved. In
short, to be one of her pupils is a privilege
which no young aspirant for musical honors
should neglect. Tne lady may be addressed
at her residence, 327 Denniston avenue,
East End, or through the firm of Mcllor &
Hoene, 77 Fifth avenue. Lessons will be
given at the residence of pupils or at the
Home of Mrs. Thomas.

A. FRENCH CHILDREN'S CARNIVAL.
The Latest Parisian Sensation Brought to
Pittsburg Around the World for Five
Cents.
Much, has been said and written- abont the
wonderful French children's carnivals, and
Americans who have visited Versailles, the
world-renowned Parisian suburb, where
these jolly festivals generally take place,
never tire in speaking of the magnificently
unique and quaint sight presented. The
merry-go-arounds, with their prancing
horses and golden chariots, carrying a jolly
and cheering lot of children around and
aronnd until they get too dizzy to stand up;
then the wheel de universe, so called be
cause it takes vou around the world, and.
just think, only charges 5 cents for a trip:
next comes the dancing pavilion, crowded
with merry waltzers, dancing to the sweet
strains of music; further the eye is caught by
the irrepressible French candy shop, pre
sided over by a lovely little Parisian maid,
also a bar from which the amber liquid is
dispensed to the thirsty; then the un
daunted, wicked gambler (just like in
America) with his'wheel of fortune, invit
ing the picnickers to try their luck and only
a few feet away stands a red-headed French
policeman, who (like some of his Ameri
can brethcrn) 'can't (?) see nothin' wrong."
All these things, taken from actual life,
have been reproduced in miniature and are
now in exhibition in Kaufmanns' large
window.'corner Fifth avenue and Smith
field street.
The scene is most life-like and natural.
It takes you a few moments to realize that
the p'easure-bent, jolly crowd of children,
ro mi lg. running and riding about, within
the window, are no children at all, but only
dolls. The entire displav is an artistic and
mechanical triumph, and, judging from the
big jams wnicn continuously lined the side
walk in front of Kaufmanns' window all
day yesterday, the "old children," those
with white hair and wrinkled faces, were
quite as eager to catch a glimpse of this
w onderful pantomine as the little tots. Of
course, the cost of the display is enormous.
When it is considered that it contains 75
gorgeously dressed dolls, some of which
cost as much as $50 apiece, $5,000 is a low
estimate of its cost. Mr. Kaufmann stated
last night that the show will remain in the
big comer window long enough to give
every child in Pittsburg and vicinity a
chance to see it, when it will be returned to
Paris. It certainly is a sight worth seeing
for young and old.
