Plitstilrgher In Trouble.
The Aliegheay ILlhrary.
A very interesting meeting at, the
friends and directors of the Allegheny-
Library `vas held last evening in the
office of the National Insurance Corepany,
Allegheny. C. C. Boyle, Esq., was called
upon to preside, and the reporters of the
press designated as Secretaries:
The meeting was called for the purpose
of taking some action in reference to the
threatened removal of the Library from
the Cty Building, in order to provide
for the city officials.
The discussion was quite animated
and interesting, but owing to an unusual
pressure on our oolumne this morning,
we are compelled to omit the extended
account prepared by our reporter. The
gist of the difficulty seemed to bt,, as
was stated by one of the speakerN that
if - the Library were removed, no s ratable
room for its accommodation c, oo ki be
procured. and even were such a room
procurable, the revenue atee ant enjoq.
ed by the institution wo uld b e i mmfit .

thus incurred. The Libra: Ate yet in its

After full an? Itee interchange of
views upon the it metiop, Mr. James E.
Stevenson emtx 'tied the sense of the
meeting in the &mowing preamble and
resolution:
WHEREAS , We learn with regret there
exists a dis edlnron the part of some
membe, rB the Councils to eject the Li
brary /ro as the' room that they now occu
py; an d eviteceas, we feel that the lossof
the.y eligible room in the city Will be
e
the destruction of the Li
huoiv n! akent
and whereas,twe learn that the ar
ch'r loot
has
prepared a plan winch will ac . ,
imosodate the city officers without die
. curbing the Library; therefore
Resolved, That. Councils are respect
fully urged to adopt such plan, believ
ing it will meet the approbation of the
people.
A l committee, consisting of Messrs. C.
C. 13oyle, A. Leggate, James Caldwell
and Henry. Phipps, was then appointed
to. confer with the Committee on City
Property, of City Councils in reference to
the matter, after which the meeting ad
journed.
The New Market' ilioase—A. Site Re
commended by the Committee.
-The Market Committee of City Coun
cils met last evening at City Hall. There
were present Messrs. MeEwen, Caskey,
Littell, Zern, Danb, Anderson. Belferth
and Houston. The various sites for a
new market house, inspected by the
Committee some days ago, were dis
castled, sad, after mature deliberation,
that on the corner of Fifth avenue and
Miltenberger street, owned by W. B.
Lyon, Esq., wassecepted. The property
has a front of 240 feet on the avenue and
and a depth of 120 feet back to Beech
alley. The cost will be 135,000. There
is a second tier of lots in the rear front
ing on Forbes street and of the same
dimensions, which the Committee re
commend to be included in the purchase
at $30,000. This will give an area of 240
feet square, divided in the center by
Beech alley; and bounded in front by
Fifth arenue and in the rear by Forbes
street, at 161,000, on ten years time for
payment, with interest.
The Committee decided to at once
make the necesaar 7 repairs on City Hall,
and to advertise for proposals for the
painting, frescoing and carpentering
work to be done. A supper room will
be made by extending the gallery over
the front entrance some fifteen or twenty
feet, and not at the rear end of the ball
as originally proposed. After the trans
action of some other businekr, the Com
mittee adjourned at a late hour. • .
Painful Accident—Hand Amputated.
Emerson Zimmerman, a boy about
fourteen years of age, employed in Lew
is, Oliver t Phillips' rolling mill, Bir
mingham, met with a painful accident
Thursday evening, which resulted in the
loss of his left hand. He was employed
in the mill as straightener on the night
"turn," and about eleven o'clock, Thurs.
day evening, while drawings bar of iron
from the rolls, the tongs slipped, causing
him to fall backward, and in attempting
to recover or break the fsll, he threw up
his hands. Unfortunately the bar shears,
which were located in the rear and to the
left of him, were in motion, and in
his efforts to recover from the fall his left
hand Was caught in them and at one gut
was almost severed at the wrist. Both
bones of the forearm were severed, and
nothing held them together but a small
portion of flesh and one ligament or
sinew which connected with the little
linger. Dr. Chessrown was sent for, and
on examining the arm found that it
would be impossible to save the hand,and
amputated it.
It is stated that the shears should not
have been running _at that time, but
through the carelessness of some one
had not been stopped.
The Auction Sale Continues—Elegant
Linis of Laces ant Embroideries to be
Offered To-day.
The great attraction on Market street
during the pi agent week has been the
auction sale of goods going forward at
W. W.lloorhead's popular and fashion
able retail trimming - store, No. 81 Mar
,
ket street. The really elegant stock of
goods held by this establishment, embra
ces the prettiest 'and finest lines of lace
goods and embroideries, and the prices at
which they are sold under the hammer -
are so cheap and reasonable as to excite
wonder. However, as the sale has been
arranged to close out all the goodie to
make place for fresh invoices, no re g
orge
all our lady readers to pay this place a
Visit during the continuance of the great
auction sale, and our word for it, they
will profit by doing so.
New Omnibus Line.
There is talk of establishing an omni
bits line from the .Custom House, Pitts
burgh, to connect with the Pleasant
Valley Passenger Railway, Allegheny,
The route to be by way of Hand street
bridge, over the streets upon which a
right of way, for" the Pleasant Valley
Railway was asked and refused, a bill to
that effect having failed to be sanctioned
by the Legislature. The prOpeeed line
will be disconnected with the sailway
company asa corporation, but will work
in harmony with it, only one fare ^each
way being charged from the Custom
House to the terminus of the Railway,
Second ward, Allegheny. The matter
will probably assume definite shape ,111
a few days.

The Keystone Pottery
Formerly it was the custom to deride
any article of home manufacture as infe
rior in quality to that imported. 'The
circumstances have changed, however,
and now our home manufacturers, es
pecially in some particular branches of
trade, are looked upon as, in many re
spects, superior to that heretofore so
bighty prized because of foreign make.
As an evidence of this changed feeling,
the great popularity of the wares mann
' factored at the Keystone Pottery may be
cited as an example. Messrs. Kier dr.
Co., have succeeded in manufacittring
goods which, for finish and durability.
cannot be excelled anywhere, while the
cost is much less than that heretofore
paid for an imported article, hence their
great popularity. Those, however, who
are not yet convinced that Pittsburgh can
produce a good article In this line should
call at Messrs. Kier et Co.'s warehouse,
No. 363 Liberty street, and iudge by
ocular demonstrations.
