Fig Ends or Sports 'Which CccntTcd Tcsttniiy, and
a Glance at Those to Come.
Bowling as a recreative and healthful
sport has no equal, and its popularity in
this country is rapidly increasing. In the
Eastern cities, especially New York, there
are innumerable clubs, and the interest
taken in it is coming west.
Last night the-old English game was
formally inaugurated in Pittsburg at the
Bellefield Club House, and if the initial at
tempt to introduce it is a criterion there
w ill be plenty of the indoor sport this
winter.
In England, Northumberland has always
been the center of bowling, and the young
and old indulge in it with "as much vim as
Americans do in baseball.
The club house at Bellefield was comfort
ably filled with representatives of leading
families from East Liberty, Bellefield, Oak
land and Pittsburg, all of whom" displayed
great enthusiasm in thi game as their re
spective club? made a "spare" or a "strike."
Besides the interest which the game alone
induces, a series of contents will take place
among three clubs the Bellefield, Linden
and East End Gymnastic Clubs, for a mag
nificent silver cup, offered by D. Herbert
Hostettcr. The season has hardly opened
up, consequently many of the bowlers who
took part last night were a trine nervous,
and showed a lack of dexterity in control
ling the ball.
The Bellefield club showed up in good
form, which their vanquished opponents
attribute to constant practice. The East
End Gyms say they have not had the
opportunity to perfect themselves, owing to
their inferior ailevs. Notwithstanding the
excuses offered for poor scores, there was
Eufiicicnt interest taken by determined
players to assure bowling a great
success for the coming winter.
According to the programme a number of
serie will be played, and there is no tell
ing when the cup will be handed over for
permanent ownership. In order to have
lull title to the trophy one club must -win
three successive scries. As cacli series
comes off weak players will be substituted
by members who have demonstrated a
right to a try by making envia
ble scores in practice. Therefore,
by the time the season ends a great many
games will have been played. The next
scries is scheduled for November SO at
the Linden Club -House. The referees of
last night's games were .T. E. Schwartz, C.
S. Gray and W. L Cosgrove.
Among tlrt several hundred people who
witnessed the event ere:
W. p. Gerdes, Wm. Holmes, Henrv
Lloyd. J. W. Lloyd. Major W. C. Alorelaud,
Dr. Calvin Kinc, John Stevenson, W. C
Stewart, G. L."3IcCutcheon. D. Herbert
Kostettcr. C A. Verner, Albert Bevmer,
I. W. C. Bidwell, J. G. Wainwright, W. 1C
Wood well, Frank Lauchlin, John W. Her
ron. A. G. Borland, John A. Davis and
many others equally prominen in society.
Tne occasion was enhanced by a liberal at
tendance of ladies, who took ranch interest
in the scores of their favorite club.
The East End Gymnastic Club had a large
representation present, and it was conceded
that their club would carry off the first
scries, hut the score shows for itbelf.

Trotters Popular in ISnropo.
C L. Covode, a nephew of Honest John
Covodc, ths old "Westmoreland Congress
man, was at the Union depot last eveLing.
He is a hon-e raiser from Covode settle
ment, Indiana, and was bound for Buffalo
t secure a nmbrr or oolts. During the
last summer T.Ir. Covode made a tour of the
European trotting circuits. He says the
trotter is gaining gremd in all the con-
tincntal countries, but his progress is slow
in England where the people are very con
servative, llunners arc able to hold their
own in and near-lo large cities, because
people crave an opportunity to gamble.
He thinks the trotting horse "is the best as
the trot is more scientific and there arc less
chances for crooked work. Sir. Covode
claims the runners will never gain a foot

Capt. Brown Tells or a Colt That Promises
Great Itnnnlng.
The last car load of Captain Sam Brown's
stable of runners were yesterday shipped
from New York to Mobile, Ala., where the
horses will be wintered. The Captain said
yesterday he wonld not work anv of his
horses until next summer, and his object in
sending them South is to give them a long
winter's training, and to strengthen them
for on active campaign next season.
"My stables are in better condition now
than they have ever been," the Captain
said. "My 3-year-olds quit the past season
in elegant shape, and my yearlings promise
extraordinary work. But," the Captain
went on, his eyes sparkling with delight
and confidence, "I have a filly that promises
certainly to be a world-beater. It is a colt
by Katie A,, by imported Richmond, and is
a magnificent-specimen of horse flesh. In a
trial a week ago the colt finished three
eights of a mile in :3S. That, among the
runners, is looked npon as phenomenal, and
I am confident the country will hear from
that colt about the time it stsrts with the 2
y ear-olds."
"What will become ot "W. L. Scott's run
ners?" was asked Caotain Brown.
"Ihey will be sold soon. The Scott
horses are strong nnd well bred, but Mr.
Scott never made much money on the track.
He made his money in selling valuable
colts from his $40,000 sire. These colts al
ways commanded high prices, and many of
them are still on tlie farm at Erie. The
Scott farm is likely to be abandoned for
breeding purposes. It is too far north and
the grass is too stiff and sour. Mr. Seott
was always a successful breeder, however."

A large meeting of members was held
last night to take action on the league's de
cisions in throwing out their games they
honestly won against McDonald and Bloom
field. The-matter was discussed thoroughly,
and those present at last came to the con
clusion that the Pittsburg club would not
under any consideration play another
league game unless the league reconsidered
its decisions and awarded the Pittsburg
team the games they had won. A resolu
tion was sent into "the secretary of the
league to that effect. Secretary McPhcrson,
ofths league, was seen last night, and
stated he had received the resolution from
Secretary Pickard, of the Pittsburg club,
and, as he considered it a very important
matter, he intended to call a special meet
ing of the league for Eriday nignt next to
take action on it. Fred Goodwyn, presi
dent of the club, was in the chair. "

road Company, submitted to the stockhold
ers in annual session in the Central
building in this city this forenoon, his
statement of the affairs of the company for
the fiscal year ended September 30, 1891.
The present statement has a special im
portance in being the first statement from
President Mayer to the stockholders of the
company since the declaration of a stock
dividend of 20 per cent by the Board of Di
rectors. So well pleased with the statement
were the stockholders that they unani
mously voted that a minute be made of their
appreciation of the prudent, wise and ener
getic management of the affairs of the com
pany hv President Mayer. The statement
of the President is as follows:
Of the equipment trust loan of $2,000,000,
mado ith the Finance Company of Pennsyl
vania there has been expended $1,377 23. The
terms of this equipment trust require the
paj'ment of one-tenth of the principal annu
ally on the 1st of November of each year,
commencing with November 1. 1891.
The company has maintained through tho
year its cash appropriations to the sinking
funds of its Sterling loan due in 1927, and the
Pittsburg and Connellsvillo consolidated
mortgage loan due in 1028. These two sink
ins funds now amount to $1,132,000.

The Grafton and Grccnbirer Railroad.
which extends from Giafton td Bellinzton.
41 miles, is being changed into a standard
gauge road, withayiew of makinsr connec
tion at Bcllincton with the "West Virginia
Central and Pittsburg road. When this is
accomplished the Grafton and Greenbrier
road will be a link In an important line
from this section or West Virginia to Pitts
burg. The Akron and Chicago Junction Railroad
came under tho control of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company, August 1, and
was then opened lor freight traffic alone. It
will shortly be opened for general business,
and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad will
then begin to realize the benefit anticipated
in tho completion of this link in its lino to
Chicago.
The West Virginia and Pittsburg Railroad
has been completed from Clarksburg to
Braxton Court House (70 miles), and troni
Weston via Buckhannon to Newton (40
miles.)
The company has completed negotia
tions under which it secures a controlling

way for $2.1Cl,800,to bo paid in common stock
of the B. & O. Railroad Company at par. It
is expectedthat this railway will pass under
tho control of the B. & O. Company before
January next, thus giving to the "B. & O.
Railroad connections with Lake Erie and
Cleveland. It also completes the company's
lino from Baltimore to Chicago, withsrades,
etc, as advantageous as other existing lines.
Tho puichasc provides for the necessary
funds by the Pittsburg and 'Western Rail
way Company to put tho line in thorough
condition as a link in an important through

Df A SHIP'S STEERAGE
A Government Commissioner Quietly
Takes a Trip Over the Ocean.
HETVAS SEARCHING FOR ABUSES,
And Has a Weighty Report to Mae to His
Colleagues To-day.
SOME BREAKS THAT HE WAS GUILTY OP
rCPECJAL TM.Eor.AM TO TnE PISrATCH.
New York, Nov. 16 II. J. Schnlteis,
one of the five commissioners appointed, by
the Secretary of the Treasury to meditate
on life in'the foreign places from which our
immigration flows, arrived here to-day on
the steamship Servia. Unlike the four
other commissioners, he came unheralded.
His name was not on the cabin passenger
list, for the very good reason that he was
not a cabin passenger.
He had' the almost unlimited credit ot an
official representative of Uncle Sam, and
could have had the finest room in the ship
if he had wanted it. But his mind was
teeming with a great scheme which involved
disguising himself as an immigrant. He
got a battered second-hand suit of clothes
at Liverpool, purchased a steerage passage
on the Servia, and mingled with the un
washed plebeians. His clothes did not fit
him, but having been a labor
agitator, he was no dude, and did not care.
He posed as an Engljsh immigrant, and as
nearly all of his 225 fellow-voyagers be
tween decks were German Hebrews and
Scandinavians, they did not remark his
Yankee accent.
Discoveries in tho Steerage.
Like nearly all folks used to cabin voy
aging who take a steerage passage, Mr.
Schulteis discovered a lot of terrible things.
In the first place, he was horrified to find
that all of 38 German Hebrews on the ship
had their passages prepaid. Mr. Schulteis,
having confined himself principally to
the study of standing well with the ad
ministration as a representative of organized
laoor, uiu not Know that about 00 per
cent of all immigrants came here with pre
paid tickets that is, tickets sent them
from this side. He secretly made a note of
his discovery, and hunted around the steer
ace for more matarial to starle the country
with. J
. When the Servia came to anchor at
the quarantine, this morning, Mr. Schulteis'
note book was crammed with accusations
against the immigrants. Colonel Lee, of Chief
Contract Labor Itispector Milholland's 'staff,
boarded the Servia and made a critical
survey of the steerage passengers. He was
attracted by Commandar Schultheis misfit
and his generally suspicious aspect, aud
spotted him as a contract laborer. Colonel
Lee asked him whom he had come over'to
work for, what his occupation was, and
where he came from.
Mr. Schulteis was seized with a spirit of
humor, and palmed himself off asa Hebrew,
archly confessing that he had come here
under contract "When he found that his
bogus confession might get him into trou
ble, he revealed and proved his identity to
Colonel Lee. He was permitted to land at
the Cunard pier.
Importance ot the Commissioner.
Before going ashore he changed his old
clothes for a suit more becoming to a com
missioner, topped with a shiny hich hat.
Then he got a bath and a shave and went
down to the Astor House. He'told Colonel
Lee to tell Colonel Weber to hold all the
Servia's passengers at the Barge Office until
he got down, which, he sajd, would be
about 1 o'clock.
Mr. Schulteis stopped at several places
on the way, and didn't show up until 2:45.
Colonel Weber, thinking that Mr. Schulteis
might have some really startling revelations
to make, held the immigrants until
Schulteis appeared. They were all ready to
go at 1 o'clock, but the colonel could not
conscientiously let them, in the face of a
mandatory order which somebody at the
barge office said ran: "Detain everybody
until I come."
But Colonel Weber was not disturbed.
After he and Mr. Schulteis had shaken
hands they went up to the landing bureau.
Mr. Schulteis wanted every Hebrew who
had a prepaid ticket stopped and sent back.
The fact that their tickets were prepaid,
probably by the Hebrew charities
of this city, Mr. Schulteis said,
was presumptive evidence that they
were paupers. The Colonel said
that specific charges would have 4o be made
against each immigrant. Schulteis was un
equal to the task of preferring charges
against any ot the .Hebrews, They were,
Colonel Weber remarked, an exceptionally
neat looking lot of immigrants, and all of
them had money and occupations.
Sucgcstions Mado by Mr. Schnlteis.
Mr. Schulteis thought if there was not a
law against letting in Hebrews with pre
paid tickets there ought to be. He also
threw out several suggestions about new
methods of examining immigrants.
Ingeborg Petersen, a pretty Swedish girl
18 years old, Mr. Schulteis accused of acting
indiscreetly aboard ship. She was cross
examined closely, and denied the charge
with flaming checks. Rev. A. B.
Lilja, Swedish missionary at the
ba'rge office, also questioned the
gill and her escort, Otto Neilsen,
who was born in the same place, Gottland,
whence she came. He became convinced
that the girl was innocent The Swedish
Immigrant Society will meet to-morrow tt)
take action in the matter.
Mr. Schulteis relused to say anything for
publication. He is a small, slender young
man, with an important air. He waived
his hands to the reporters and remarked
that he would give cut his start
ling experiences in the steerage to
the world to-morrow morning, at the
first meeting of the commission of which
he is a member. He invited all tho repor
ters to be present to hear him. Colonel
Weber said the meeting would be an execu
tive one, and that the subject for discussion
would be the report of the commission.-

"What is your idea of .heaven?"
"A place where everybody is as good
as me." This is probably as good a
definition as any but when it comes
to the question of are you perfectly
healthy? Do you enjoy the good
thines of this world? Does a rich
dinner distress you? Are you a hypo
chondriac? Are you troubled with
sleeplessness?
A prominent physician from Cin
cinnati writes:
"My patient has just finished the
last bottle of the genuine Johann
Hoffs Malt Extract with marked im
provement. I can cheerfully say, it
is all and more than you claim for it,
for in my patient's case of dyspepsia
nothing would remain on her stomach;
hence there was extremedebility, and
she certainly could not have survived
much longer.
After takjng the second bottle we
could see quite an improvement. Her
appetite became better, and she could
retain food without distressing her.
She feels for the first time in six
months that she has been in bed
that she will recover. It has certainly
proved in her case a great boon. I
can cheerfully indorse the genuine
Johann "Hoff's Malt Extract for all
you claim, both in dyspepsia, anremia
and kindred diseases. I will take
great pleasure in recommending it to
other practitioners and to my pa
tients. Eisner cc Mendelson Lor,
Sole Agents, 6 Barclay St., New
York. Look out for counterfeits.
The genuine must have the signature
of "Johann Hoff" on the neck of
every bottle. tu
