rBJgW 12 THE PITTSBtTRfc DISPATCH. STOTAY, OCTOBEffc 3 180& The past wecfc was given up io charitable rather than strictly social affairs. It is a pleasant change to drop the regular round ofg&ieties occasionally and give a week or two to the work of making pleasiuter the lives of those whose lines are cast in shady places. It is true that nothing is so blessed 6$ charity, and the ladies of Pittsburg real ize this fact, as a rule. Two homes foi aged people occupied the attention ot some pt the coble women whose time is so largely given up to good works, and it is certain that when they listen to the words of their pastors on this Sabbath morning, as they eay that he who gives to the poor lends to the Lord, they il 1 feel a holy calm steal ing over them that could not be acquired In any other way. Last week was only the beginning of char itable work for the fall and winter. There arc many other important affairs to take place before long. The Southside Hospital Pair is occupying much attention just now, ahd there is every indication that when it opens, on the 7th of Kovember, in the old postoffice building, the Ladies' Aid Society will have accomplished a great deal toward making it one ot the most notable under takings of the kind ever seen in Pittsburg. To-morrow afternoon there wilt be an im portant meeting in the First Presbyterian Church, under the direction of Mrs. M. F. Uutchics, who is Chairman of the commit tee in charge of what will be knowD as "Pittsburg day" at the fair. On that day all the ladies of the Pittsburg churches will be in charge of the lair, and they will try to make it one of the plcasantest as well cs'thc mo. t profitable of all the days of the week. T. at is what all the ladies will try to do, of course, so that there will be m'ich Jriendly emulation to see who will do most for the benefit of the hospital. It can be teen by this that the ladies are thoroughly in earnest, and it is expected that Mrs. Hutchins' call for to-morrow's meeting will bring a very large number of ladies to the First Presbyterian Church. That splendid institution, the Home for Aged Protestant "Women, at "SVilkinsburg, celebrated its twenty-first anniversary Thursday afternoon, and a more delightful occasion could not be conceived. The day was perfect, and the large, rambling man sion, hidden among the trees that shade its beautiful lawn, was truly a home to which it was a privilege to be invited. The Board of 3Iai.agers, composed ot women whose i:a-ues are famous tor their good works, in spite of their modesty in doing what they can ior the needy, worked hard on the ilar, and it must be said that the results were such as to afford them thorough ssjfiion. The old j'wftffho spend the jtffling ot their worldly ertktence in the peaceful retirement of "the hoV-e are like children in their enjoyment of a holiday, and the yearly celebration is the favorite holiday ot all of them. The hundreds of visitors who saw the place lor the first time, with those who have been to Wilkinsburg every year for a decade, expressed their pleasure over the excellent manner in which the home is conducted, and there is little doubt that their satisfaction will be shown in a tangible manner as opportunity oilers. "Maple Shades" is a title that suggests rural retirement, and the idea is well car ried out at the place of that name that was dedicated to the use of the aged women of the United Presbyterian Church last week. This home is one of the most beautiful in "WeEtern Pennsylvania, and the women of the church to whose efforts is due the estab lishment ot the inmates in so comfortable a plac, deserve the greatest credit for their unremitting zeal and hard work in behalf of their less iortunate sisters. It was a good thing lor everybody to visit "Maple Shades," to see how every detail has been thoucht out by the ladies. 'Woman' wort always tells, particularly in matters of chantT. That the friends of the Fruit and Flower Mission are not neglecting that splendid charity is shown by the report of the Sep tember Committee. September has been a good month for tne mission, there having been large donations of fruit, cut flowers, bosks, papers and cash, to say nothing of 30 gallons of ice cream received by the com mittee. Among the donors are seen the names of scores ot ladies well known for their c!aritable work as well as of business men who find time to hslp the mission in a substantial way. The things eent to the .rnisiion are distributed among the hospitals anil Flumes in the two cities, and many a sad face has brightened at the welcome fruit, flowers or books were brought to them. If everybody could follow the things sent to the mission to their destination there would be ten times as much given as is the case. Although so much of the week was given to charity, Hymen was not entirely neglect ful of his duties. There were several mar riages in which Plttsbnrgers were interested, although most of them were conducted in quiet manner. One of the pretty weddings took place at the residence of Mr. John H. McElroy, Walnut street. East End, when Mips Jennie Wailes Dickson became the bride of William J. Beno. Still another wedding, on the same date, took place at Mansfield. It nas then and there that Miss Violet Bedell and Mr. William L. Monro exchanged marriage vows. Both are well known and popular in this city, and there were a number ot witnesses of the ceremony from Pittsburg. Not so bad for one dayl The afternoon tea given by the mission ary societies of the Bellefield Presbyterian Church last Thursday was one of the most pleasant affairs that live long in the mem nrr. Tne ladies in charts do not know the meaning of partial success in anything they undertake, and their tea was delightful in every way. The King's Daughters took an active part in the entertainment, and, as usual with them, the part was a creditable one. The Park Plaoe Hotel, Sewlckley, Is a grand old place, and entertainments there are always something to remember with pleasure. A reception is to be given there to-morrow by Ma N. E. Blair and Miss Blair, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Ued Arter Flood, of Meadville. a young couple who were recently married. There are large number of invitations out, and the list com prises most of the rell-known loclety peo ple of Allegheny county. The Daughters ot the American, BeTolu tion in Pittsburg are hard, at work. Thar effected an organization of local chap ter last week, and It i ' & thtr will, withia two weeks, eat- neasion of their charter, as well s of the Block House presented to them by Mrs. Schenley. That lady is to be made an hon orary memberof the society, and the papers for her will be made out at the next meet ing of the chapter in October. This is a proper recognition of the kindness of that lady, and it is a very graceful act on the part of the Pittsburg ladies. When tha Block House comes into the bands of the Daughters of the Revolution, suitable ar rangements will ba made for its preserva tion, and it will have one entrance on the new O'Hara avenue, so that it will be easily accessible, and will occupy a position worthy of its importance as a memento of the war that resulted in American indepen dence. ' Tuesday nexl, October 4, at 8 p. u. the Art Society will hold its one Hundred and eightieth reception in the AcaJeiny oi Science and Art building. There will be an informal lecture by Mr. Colbert H. Greer, of New York, and an exhibition of water-color paintings, in which will be represented some two dozen famous artists of America and Europe. The exhibition will remain open for some days after the reception, and the public as well as mem bers ot the society will be heartily wel come. The Art Society understands the art of giving pleasurable receptions, and there is no doubt that the rooms will be crowded Tuesday evening with the brains, culture and beauty of the two cities. Pittsburg lost one of its most popular ministers last week when Kev. C. E. Locke departed for his new pastorate in the far West. The musicale given by Mrs. D. Reynolds Kerr at the Park Place Hotel, in honor of her sister, Mrs. Arters, on Monday night, was an artistic as well as a social success. Mrs. Arters, who possesses a fine mezzo soprano voice, sang a charming series ot songs, and Mr. C S. Clark, Dr. and Mrs. Kaylor, Messrs. A. L. Pearson, Jr., Clar ence Lake and L. Shannon also contributed to the musical programme. WHILE THE LEAV2S ABE FAILIHG. Social Gatherings That Interest Uie People of the Two Cities. Sir. C. XJ.

Cleveland's is a pure cream of tartar and soda mixture, not containing alum or ammonia or any other substance deleterious to the human stomach. , Cakes, muffins, biscuits, &c, in which Cleveland's Baking Powder is used, keep better. . ; A like quantity of Cleveland's Baking Powder goes further and does better work than any other of which I have knowledge.
