Mr. Eaton, from the Committee on

THE MUTE SCHOOL.
Mr. McCanoe moved that Dr. Brown,
who wished to make a few remarks in
relation to the Mute School established
in Pittsburgh under the control of the
Central Board, be granted privilege to
speak, which was /greed to. •
Dr. Brown then explained the Web
lishnsent of the Mute School, and said
the Central Board had employed two
teachers, one at a salary of 16400 and the
other at 11600 per year, with which they
thought forty children could be taught.
The school commenced last Monday and
was now attended by sixteen scholars.
There were,. according to statistics, one
hundred to one hundred and fifty mute ,
children in this vicinity, and the need of
such an institution. had long been felt.
The Central Board had concluded to
throw the school. open for pupils from
outside districts,' at a yearly tuition of
twenty dollars each. This would not
meet the expense, but the remainder
would be borne by the. Board, who were
anxious to extend the privileges of the
school to all in the vicinity. They merely
asked the Board_ of Control to make ar
; rangeniente for, granting permits to clill
dren from Allegheny City. The Board
by the method named, would be liable
for the tuition of every pupil granted
such permit. •
Several members of the Board stated
they had visited the school and thought
it an admirable I plan for the education of
mutes in this vicinity without burden:
log parents with the great entwine of
, sending their children away to other
r school&
'
! After some discussion Mr. Francis of
fered a resolution which was amended
by Mr. Parke, referring the matter to
the Committer en Teachers and Salaries
with power to act. ,
In response to an inquiry the Secretary
stated that theßeard was required to pub
lish a report of its proceedings each year.
GERMAN IN THE SCHOOLS.
Mr. Beckart offered the following:
Bemired. That when fifty or more cit.
izens, taxpayers, in any ward of tee city
or Allegheny shall petition the Board of
Controllers to provide for the teaching of
German in schools. it shall be the duty
of the Local Board of each ward to pro
vide rooms suitable- for such purposes
and employ a male teacher competent to
act as instructor.
Mr. Swift asked for the reading of the
report of* Special Committee appointed
at a former meeting of the Board in 1887..
The Secretary referred to the minutes
and read the report, which was adverse
to the employment of teachers of Ger
man in the schools on the ground that
the English lang uage should only be
taught there.
Mr. Swift opposed the resolution on the
ground that if carried out impartially,
teachers would be required for nearly
every language on the face of the globe,
of which the American people were coin
, posed, if such* resolution were in
t( fi t gie
in San Freedom, the Directors of e
schools there would be' compelled em.

America had nothing to do With such a
matter, all they had to do was to educate
the pupils of the schools in the common
language of the nation. -
Mr . Beckart thought4fie Board in Al

An Incident 'occurred at the Union
Depot, about two o'clock yesterday
morning, which is another evidence that
crime, although successful for a time,
sooner or later meets its reward, and
that justice sometimes swiftly follows
the criminal and requires him to pay,the
penalty of the offended law. At the
time stated above, Mr. Lewis Oswalt, a
resident of Mercer county, Ohio, pm
._
chased a ticket at the railroad
office, after which he placed his
pocket book, containing $785, in the in
side breast pocket of his coat, and while
waiting for the train upon which he in
tended to take passage west with his wife
and child, he discovered that his pocket
had been picked, and his money, book
and all taken. Fortunately for him
there were bat few persons at the depot
at the time, and he remembered the faces
of those who had been near him. Be
made known his loss to officer
Heide, and described the -man
whom ho thought had robbed
him. The officer promptly arrested the
man, who gave his name as William C.
Chandler and resided In Newark, N. J.
Be was taken into the office of the Soper
intendent for the ptirpose of searching
him, and while sitting on a chair, it is sT
leged, the pocket book was found on the
floor near the chair._ He was taken to
the lock-up, where he remained until
yesterday morning, when an information
was inside against him by Mr. Oswalt,
and he was committed for trial. The in
formation was returned to court and
brought before the Grand Jury which •
was then in session, and at ten o'clock,
A. it., a true bill was returned.
The District Attorney proposed to try
the case immediately, anti Judge Mellon
expressed his readiness to hear it, but at
the request of Messrs. Coyle and Large,
Attorneys for the defendant, it was post
ponedmorn ing.
and wil l
be the first case taken up
this
A gentleman, formerly a merchant in
this city, was also arrested at the request
of Mr. Oswalt, as be bad been in conver
sation with him *few minutes before he
missed /pa pocketbook, but he was dis
charged in the morning, as soon as he ,
was repo nixed by his friends.
Chandler is a young man of fine per

ty-live years of age, and has not the look
of a thief, although it is reported that he
is old in crime.

a New Hall.
Since the date of its organization
Post No. 151, G. A. R. 'of Birmingham
has been holding its meetings in a hall
in Eichla,y's building, Der:wain street,
but with an increased membership these
quarters became too small, and a change
was rendered necessary. After some
difficulty the members of the Post
succeeded in securing a suitable
Place in Mr. Shaffer's new build
ing on Bingham street, which
they fitted up in an appropriate style,
and occupied for the first time last eve
ning. The opening or dedication of the
new headquarters was made theoanialon
for a pleasant reunion of the friends and
members .of the organization, who
gathered in, large ,I nt ermrs and
tilled the ' spacious ior to
Its utmost capacity. The fitting up
of the hall was of the most beantifal
character, and occasioned many com
mendable remarkb from the ladles and
gentlemen visitors who had assembled
toparticipate In the dedicatory ceremo
nies. After it had been thoroughly
examined, Mr. H. B. McCurry called
the assembly to order, and the
meeting was organized by Captain W.
B. Cook being called upon to preside.
The Captain returned his thanks for the
honor in a felicitous manner, and cort='
eluded by calling upon Rev. H. Roth,
who made an impressive and appropri
r ate dodiestory prayer.s.
Brief and pertinent addresses then fol. ,
lowed by Messrs. W.D. Moore, W. C.
Moreland, J. H. Rer ,r of Pittsburgh,
and Hon. Miles S. Humphreys, Rev.
Wm. Hastings and others, , which were
wait received and frequently elicited ap
plause. These exercises were inter
spersed with music by the Washington
Cornet Band and singing by Prof. John
Abel Jones, who favored the audience
with some of his choicest selections.
Professor Prosier closed the ceremonies
by singing with fine effect the "Ship on
Fire," a ft er which the company sepa
rated, with pleasant recollections of the
occasion - and many good wishes for.the
continued prosperity of Post 15/.

had got change far a twenty dollar bill
at the butcher's stand in the market, at
the ck of same time exhibiting a new green

two then retired to takes drink, While
in the saloon • Barlow missed the new
greenbaCk and accused his friend of
taking it, which was strengthenedby
the latter opening h is pocketbook and
revealing what wait claimed to be the
identical till. A disagreement and
