• surety of the Peace.— Lavinla Moss
made information before Alderman Tay
lor, yesterday, against William Caughey
for-surety of the peace. She alleges that
Caughey threatened to kill her. A. war
rant was issued.
Itebbed.—Two of the boarders at Mrs.
Cochran's on .Ninth street, Thursday

Trespassing.—John Miller was in the
Allegheny Park, yesterday, and wishing
to get out took a near cut ocross the grass
and flowerbeds and over the fence,
instead of going by the gates. The next
near cut was to the Allegheny Mayor's
office, where Mayor Drum lined him five
dollars for the trespassing. .

Amicable 14ettlement.—A. few days
since Caroline Cornelius Made informa
tion before Justice Barka'', charging Geo.
Mueller with seduction. The accused
was arrested and entered bail fora hear
ing which was to have taken place , yes
terday, when the parties appeared- and
were married by the Justice, whichb as a
matter of course, ended the proceedings.
Runaway Accident.—Yesterday after,
noon, a horse attached to a wagon, ran
away in the Fifth ward, Allegheny. The
wagon came in contact with a lamp post,
and was shattered to pieces. A fragment
glanced off and struck a bystander, Mr.
John Good, on the leg, with such force as
to -fracture it below the knee. He re
ceived medical attention at his hofne in
the vicinity. The animal was not hurt.
Temperance innateln.—The temper
ante men are talking of erecting a small
drinking fountain in the Allegheny Park.
The Park Commission have decided to
conduct the water from a couple •of
springs on the hills above Allegheny in
iron pipes to the Park grounds. One of
these streams the temperance folks de
sign to use for a supply in their fountain.
The water, if it can be brought so far,
will be of the purest and coolest quality,
and such a fountain would unquestiona
bly be a popular resort.
Another Wanderer —Thursday even
ing at a late hoar, a young man giving
the name of Gotlieb Suitwan, was found
by one of the Allegheny police, wander
ing the streets and giving every indica
tion of insanity. He was locked up, and
yesterday morning a ticket for Chicago
was found - upon him. He stated he had
been working in Harrisburg, was a tan
ner by trade, and bad relrtivee residing
near Elizabethtown, Pa. He is still at
the lovk-up where he will be detained
until his friends can be heard from.
-- Severely lajureth—Adam McKinney,
a mail about sixty years of age, met with
a.serious accident yesterday, by which
he was severely injured. It appears that
he was riding with the driver in a brew
er's wagon, coming down Penn street,
and when near the Ninth ward market
how, as the wagon was turning out of
the track to pass a car, Mr. McKinney
fell from the seat, striking his head on
the cobble stone pavement, luilictins a
severe wound. He was carried into Dr.
Du can's °Mee, whereihis injurieis were
attended to.
Another Melzure.—We learn that a
gentleman connected with the revenue
department, a few days since '
while !vis
iting the house of a friend in the upper
portion of the city, saw four barrels of ale
rolled into the cellar from a brewer's
wagon, not one of which had the requir
ed revenue stamp. The Collector was in
formed of the fact, and farther investiga
tion, we learn, led to the discovery of
other frauds of a like character by the
same brewer. The brewery, we learn,
will be seized, and If the fraud is proven,
it will be confiscated.
The Great Match betweeen the Atlan- 4
tic Base Ball Club of this -- city, and the
Baltic Club of Wheeling, is to take place
at half past twe this afternoon, at Union
Park, Allegheny. The Bellies will ar
rive on the eleven o'clock train from
Wheeling, and will doubtless be received
and welcomed by their Pittsburgh
yab3. The names suggest a victory for
our boys, for the Baltic is but a puny sea
compared with the Atlantic ocean, and
the Atlantic Club must be very strong if
their pitcher Is a fair specimen of the
rest of the Club, for Brosey, late of the
famous Athletic Club of Philadelphia,
and probably the swiftest pitcher in the
world, now fills that position in the At
lantic, We suppose there will be a great
crowd to witness the match, as it will
undoubtedly be a good one, and besides
the price of admittance for gentlemen is
small and for (Wm nothing at all, facts
which are generally popular ones.
Alleged Embezzlement.
Patrich Langan made information be
fore Alderman McMaeters, yesterday,
charging Fred. Setgelstell with embez
zlement. The prosecutor is a soap man
ufacturer in . and, It is • al
leged, employe Alleghenyd
the defendant to collect
money for him. He alleges that the ac
cused collected 896,10, which he neg-
lected to pay over to his employer.
t3eigelstell was arrested, and, in default
of bail for a hoaxing, was committed to
j ail.

THE IaIJTUAL PROTECTIONISTS.
Meeting at Turner Ball—What They
Propose to Do=The Brewers Unite
With Them—Concert of Action Recom
' mended—Various Pro position.
That great terror to violators of the
Sunday law, who propose,:ky a stilct en
forcement of the same, against all parties,
to make it so odious as to cause the peo-
ple of all classes, parties and • isects to
clamor for its repeal, held a meeting yes
terday, at Tumor Hall, Sixth avenue,
for the purpose of better organizing their
forces, and receiving the general co-oper-,',
ation of all parties concerned in the liquor
business.
Previous to their assembling, a meet•'
ing of the brewers of the city and vicini•
ty was held at the same place to take
int6consideration the propriety of con
solidating and co-operating with the
"M. P's. The brewers organized - by
calling Mr. Lofink to the chair, and the
election of a Secretary, whose name we
did not ascertain.
The Chairman stated the object of the
meeting, and after considerable discus
sion it was resolved to unite and co-oper
ate with the tavern keepers, or "M. P's,"
as the only means of protecting them
selves against the onerous liquor law
now in existence.
The meeting then adjourned, and,the
M. P's," assembled and were called to
order by the Chairman,who stated for
what purpose they ha been called to
gether and asked if any one , had any
thing to propose for the benefit of the
society.
A number of propositions followed;
but as they were made the "teutonic
tongue," with which our reporter is not
particularly familiar, consequently we
are able only to present one or two. _
One member proposed to proceed
against street railways alone, as it was
ascertained that they were strictly liable
under the law.
Another suggested the idea of "going
for" all classes of persons not members
of the Society who were known to be
giiilty of any infraction of the law.
Another more enthuiliestic than his
brother Who seemed to think that the
Society had already accomplished its
purpose, proposed that all tavern keep
ers throw open their bars on next Sun
day and sell liquor, indiscriminately to
- all who asked for and had the money to
pay for it.
A number of other similar suggestions
were made but no action taken upon any
of them.
The Chairman then called upon Mr.
Moore, one of the counsel of the Society,
for instructions as to how they should
proceed. Mr. M., in a quite lengthy
speech, delivered the reauired instruc
tions advising the Society to endeavor
to unite the entire whisky and beer in
fluence, so that they might have concert
of action. No information should be
made against any individual without
first consulting one of the Attor
- nays for the Society. He thought
that there should be a committee
appointed, whose duty it should
be, when they contemplated pro
ceeding against any railroad or street
railway employes, to ride on the cars of
OS same and pay their money so that they
might be competent witnesses. The at
torneys, he said, would not be responsi
ble for the failure of any snits which
were brought without their advice and
consent. The half of the magistrates in
the city did not know how to draw up an
information in a case of summary con
viction, he said, and whenever there was
a flaw in the information or any of the
proceedinga the court would dismiss the
case at the cost of the prosecutor. There
had been some talk about prosecuting
members of the SOciety for conspiracy,
but he would take it upon himself to say
that no such action could be sustained.
It was then resolved to appoint a Com
mittee.
A member .suggested that the entire
Society form itself into a Committee,
such as had been recommended. The
proposition did not seem to meet with
general favor, and was riot brought before
the meeting.
A Committee of one from each ward
was then appointed to hunt up cases and
evidence, and report the same to the
attorneys.
On motion, it was resolved to proceed
against all parties who were found viola
ting the law, after which the meeting
adjourned.
A Foundling—Coroner's Inquest.
About eight weeks since, a male child
apparently not more than • two 'or three
day sold,wis left at the house of Mr. Gold
strong, who resides at Hamburg, near
McKinney's Station, on the Pennsylva
nia Railroad. The infant was found
snugly wrapped up, in a basket which
had been left sitting in Mr. o's. door in
the morning before anyone about the
house was awake. Mr. G., not being Si
tuated so as to - keep the child without
some inconvenience, gave into a Mr.
Louis Schwartz, who proposed to adopt
it, and named it Frank Schwartz. The
little waif was propeily cared for and
appeared to be getting along swlmingly
'with its new parents until within a day
or two past when it took sick and yes.
terday morning died suddenly. Coro.
ner Clawson was notified of the circum
stance and, at the request of Mr.
Schwartz held an inquest on the body
and a verdict of death form natural cau
ses was rendered by the jury.
No clue has yet been obtained as to
who the mother of the child is, and in all
probability never will be.
Robbery at the MW Depot.
Sometime during Thursday night, or
Friday warping, the Country Milk
Depot, at the corner of Fourth avenue
and Boss streets, was entered by burg
lars, and milk tickets representing over
.00 stolen. The demand for milk yes
tarday was nnusally large, so that the
supply was exhausted before one • half
the regular customers were served, and a
noticable feature was that the customers
were all supplied with tickets. Tester-
day evening, John Tiernan, who resides
in the vicinity of Hardscrabble, was dis-
covered with a number of milk tickets
in his posession, and officer Dressler ar
rested him. Upon searching him, one
hundred tickets were found in his
pockets; He was locked up, and will
probably have a hearing this morning,
It is alledged that the tickets were
given to Tiernan by a little boy and that
he intended to return them to the
He was a- little too slow about the
matter however, and will now be under
the necesity of showing how he came
in posession of the stolen property.
Fruit Jars.
litiessrm i S. M. Kier dc Co., Ne. 383 Lib
erty street, have on hand' a fruit jar of
,
their own manufacture, which we think
fatly meets the requ irements of those
who desires nasty. substantial, durable
and cheap can or ar for putting up fruit.
The jars are ma e of Queensware, of a
neat pattern and in different sizes to suit
purchasers. Esoh jar is supplied with a
patent top, as ingenious arrangement
which designates the - kind of fruit the
jar contains. They have also on hand a
large and elegant assortment of Queens
ware of every discription of a very su
perior quality, which they sell at very
easonable prices.
PITTSBURG"' GAZEI LE : SATURDAY, • JULY 24, 1889.
The Work Rouse—Removal of Petsoneri.
We mentioned in Thursday's issue that
the Business Committee of the Prison
Board, in order that some of the cells in
the jail might be tern down and•the ma
terial used in the construction of the new
building, had kunder consideration the
propriety of having arrangements made
at the County Work House for the recep
tion of a number of prisoners, about fifty,
uhich would relieve the old jail and ad
(mit of this plan. They consulted with
, the Committee', having in charge the
erection of the Work House and the
result was a visit to the institution yes
terday
, by the Prison Board and the COM
mittee for this purpose. The party
spent several hours in an examination
of the building,• and were unanimously
of the! opinion that with a little extra
work the convicts might be accommoda
ted, without'any inconvenience, in a
stylepu
ui s ch better than they are now en
jn . None of the cells of the building,
although coMpleted are yet ready for oc
cupancy, on twee= of the dampnese of
the mortar, but'there is however a large
room, about fifty feet square, in the east-.
ern end of the building connected with
the female departMent, which will be
completed and rea dy for occupancy
in a few 'days. It was decided
to have this ropm provided with bunks
and fitted up temporarily\lit a sleeping
apartment, which, owing to its size, yen-
Mallon, do., seems admirably adapted
ctaor the purpose. It can be secured so as
o prevent the escape of any of the in
mates, or their communication with any
other part of the building, except when
working under the supervision of the
uperintendent. For the cooking ar
ngements a temporary frame building •
will be constructed, large enough fora
kitchen and dining hall,- which can be
completed and properly fitted up in a
'few days. The food will be brought
from the city as required.
It is designed to make the men useful
in excavating and grading off the ground
around the house. a large Donlan of
which has to be put in order and levelled
previous to the building of the wall.
This work would require a number of
laborers, and occupya considerable time
and expense which it is thought can
all be saved by theplan proposed.
Their removal from the jail will also be
a saving of several thousand dollars to
the county; as the materials of their
cells can be used as stated, while if not
consumed in this manner it would prove
a total loss. Every care will be taken in
their treatment, and they will undoubt
edly find the nature of the care tar better
than they could in the house on the hill.
The contractors were notified to make
the`arrangements immediately and have
everything ready for the reception of
the prisoners on the lat of August, when
they will be removed. '
The work on the building is progress
ing very satisfactorily, and it now be
gins to assume a definite shape and char
acter. The expectation is that the whole
will be under roof before the close of the
present season. So far as completed„ it
presents a much finer appearance
than the plan indicated, and when
entirely finished is destined to be
a model of architectural beauty, ,
apd perfectly adapted for the• pnrpose.
of its erection. Everything is being con
structed upon the most approved princi
ples, and the best workmanship is dis
played in the execution of the plan. • The
visitors, after a thorough examination,
were very much pleased with the man
ner in which the contractors were fulfill
ing their obligations, and were quite en
thusiastic in commendation of what had
been clone.
After accomplishing the object of their
visit, and partaking of the generous hos
plialities of Messrs. Megraw and McDon
ald, who have charge ofthe work, the
party returned to the city at four o'clock
highly gratified at the success which had
attended their plans.
Yesterday morning John Lincoln, a
jeweler on Wylie street, came to the
Mayor's office anelnade information
charging John Bruit with obtaining
goods under false pretences. He alleges
that dui ing the morning Barry, who is
quite a respectable looking young man,
came to his store and asked to see some
good rings. The rings were shown him,
and he • selected one valued at twelve
dollars. and requested the jeweler to al
low him to take it home to show it to his
mother, and if it suited he, would bring
him the money, if not, he Would return
the ring. Lincoln demurred for a time,
but being anxious to make a sale and
presuming on the honest appear
ance of tne young man, tin
ally
consented, and Barry left with
the ring. After. waiting • patiently
for over an hour, the jeweller became un
easy and started out in search of his ring,
which he failed to find. He, howeirer,
succeeded.in finding Barry, who, on be
ing reminded of his promise to restore
the ring or the money, stated that he had
lost it in a cellar, and agreed to accom
pany Mr. Lincoln to the cellar to search
for it. The cellar was visited but the
ring was not found, whereupon the jew
eller repaired to the Mayor's office and
made the information as stated. Barry
was arrested and taken to the lock-up,
where he remains awaiting a hearing.

Car Brake and starter.
, -•--
Irvings Car Brake and Starter is de
signed, to work a great change in the
handling of street cars, where ever intro
duced:,
I The invention consists of a elm
pie arrangenidnt of two drams, a strong
spring, and a Chain connected with the
axles all underneath the car and con
trolled by a brake on the platform
which can be operated by child.
When the car is to be stopped, the
brake is applied, when the momenten,
acquired in moving forward immediate
ly winds the chain upon one of the
drums containing the spring, and the
vehicle is stopped within the length o
tself.
Upon starting, the brake Is loosed,
when the spring recoils with sufficent
force to start the car foaward without
the aid of the horses, even though it be
filled to overflowing with passengers.
- Thus all strain upon the horses in shirt
ing a heavy load is obviated which is the
desideratum among managers of Street
Railways. It is well known that the
greatest wear of the animals consist
just in this point, and an invention that
does away with the difficulty, cony
mends itself to every street railway
company on the score of humanity as
well as economy. !
The invention was tri d a few days
ago, In the presende of a > umber of par
ties interested, and found to work like
a charm. The car was loaded to its ut
most capacity, but was moved forward
by the spring with greater smoothness
and ease than by the horses, and con
vinced every spectator of its great utility
; and ,success. It should be and will
doubtless soon become general upon our
street railways.
His Deserts at Last
About three months ago John Allison
was arrested in a houete of ill-fame, in
Allegheny, and committed to jail by
Mayor Drum. While _on the way to that
institution he broke away from the po-
Huainan and made his escape. Since
then he managed to keep out of the way
until yesterday afternoon, when olllzer
Jerry Smith, of the Allegheny pollee,
saw him entering the circus in the Dia
mond, in company with two females.
The policeman immediately cut short
Allison's amusement and transported
him to a different scene before the Mayor.

Go Forward With the Times.
In this day of advancethent, when the
mechanical genius of the country is
stretched to its utmost tension to invent
anything and everything to lesson labor
in the various industries, and promote
the greater ease and comfort of hiiman
ity, it is idle for those persons rr4)resenting
sewing machines which fall within the
scope of the one old original idea of the
first patentee, to set at defiance all the
new and grand complications brought into
operation in later inventions. Might as
well use the old tramway of scooped
wooden rails as our steel tracks; the old
hand press for the swift gliding four cylin
der; the water course for the great motive
power of steam, as to now employ in fam
ilies the simple sewing machine which•
can perform no work outside of that em
braced in ordinary plain stitching or
basting together. We must go forward
with the times. It is from this reason
ing that the great American Button-
Hole, Overseaming , and Family Sewing
Machine is so popular with the people.
It not only accomplishes ail, the ordinary
work of the family sewing machine
but does ten fold more. It hems, tucks,
binds, braids, sews on and over, works
button holes, over seams and In short
does as much and in as good and durable
manner as though it were possessed
with brains, and were guided by human
impulse. It is the grand machine of the
hour, and if its merits were fully known
to the public, few other machines would
have any sale whatever. Wherever
tried it has afforded satisfaction and in
this community alone, although but new
ly introduced, It has attained a popularity
second to no other machine in the mar
ket. Mr. James Espy, corner of
Fifth avenue and Market street, up
