FICFI TIOUS PRlCRS

Webster defines the word Fictitious"
thus: "Feigned; imaginary; net real;
counterfeit false; not genuine" Such is
the character OF the catalogue prices of
pianos and organs. differing some il the
enormity of the offense in proportion to
the quality of the instruments; for be it
understood that many of the cheapest
made instruments rate about the same ON
the catalogues as frst-class ones. This
condition is regretted by some of the
leading makers, but they are powerless
to change because many deal
ers insist on the present
policy being continued, for the reason
that it gives them better chance to get
high prices by making purchasers be-
lieve that in offering them $1,000 piano
for $3.50 or $3.50 organ for $3.50, that
they are giving immense bargains, when
in fact the instrument may be exceed
ingly desr even at these seemingly very
low prices. A business man in this city
thinking that he could get first class
piano at the factory much cheaper than
he could in this city, bought one shown
him on the catalogue to be 81 600. for
S525, as special price to him, with the
understanding that be was to use his il.
luence to effect sales among his friends.
1t was very disappointing to hin when
shown that l could have furnished the
instrument for S425 with a reasonable
profit to myself. Recently lady had 8
piano selected for her in New York, st
cost of $500 delivered in this city, which
she highly priced. The tuner did not
convince her that she could have pur-
chased the same class of piano by the
same maker from me. for $500,
that being the regular price. Many SIM
liar cases have come to my knowledge
l have just been offered by two different
makers Of pianos, who advertise very
largely throughout the country: ''75
octave, upright pianos, tri--, handsome
rosewood case, ali the latest improve
ments, and warranted for FIVE years"
for SllO! Catalogue price $500 Who
wants such piano at any price? And
yet they are sold in this Territory at $500
and upwards. surely catalogue prices
are q snare and deception when used to
reflect dealers prices s. grea: bargains.

MINISTERIAL TROUBLES.

A dramatic scene at the close of
the Methodist Episcopal conference,
Tuesday, between George Hughey,
son of DR.. T. w. Hughey, and DR.. b.
st. James Fry, is causing much ex-
element among the Aethodists of
the city. The story is that the
Hughey boy drew his knife, at
tempted to cut Rev. DR.. Fry, and
when prevented, declared that he
would cut his liver out, and cursed
him freely before a large crowd
of persons. The trouble has grown
out Of bitter discussion, on one
side Of which was DR.. Hughey, the
pastor Of Trinity NJ. z. Church, on
Tenth and North Market street, and
on the other, DR.. Fry, the editor of
the Advocate, and other Methodist
clergymen of the city. Trouble has
been brewing for some time, and
friends of the parties expected some
sort of an outbreak. Fry has fought
Hughey from the time he came
here. DR.. Hughey has been getting
a salary of 800 at Trinity Church.
The time has come when, under the
rules of the conference, he must be
transferred, and he was anxious to
go to some church where the salary
would be the same. He wanted to
go to Kansas City or to Springfield,
Mo-, but the opposition fought both
Of these places. Yesterday
it was ammo Inced that he
had been transferred to Caron-
delet, where the yearly sti-
pend is only $500, and, of course, it
caused considerable disgust to him
self and his friends. He is acknowI-
edged to be one of the ablest Meth
Odist divines in the Conference, and
the change to Carondelet was looked
upon as q Punishment. After the
change had been announced young
Hughey met DIR. Fry in the aisle of
the church where the conference
was held, upbraided him with be-
ing the cause Of his fathers trouble,
and made the assault with the
knife as previously mentioned. 1t
is expected that on account of these
troubles DR.. Hughey will go over to
the Methodist Church South. He
is the author of several works
against the Catholic Church.-Cin-
cinnati Enquirer.

Selecting the Joss Man.

The last agony of China New
Years occurred yesterday. Their
wind-up was the selection of new
man TOR their joss" heuse TOR the
ensuing year. This is a grand event
among them. Nhis func.ionary must
be very Important man, from a re-
ligious point of view, or else there's
millions" in his Office. The way
they conducted their election is as
follows: Competitors from the two
companies, about twenty-iour in
number, were ranged opposite each
other ready fer the contest. Thirteen
cylindrical oombs were brought in
one at time, and exploded. From
each bomb was shot into the air a
ring. The fight, friendly but rough,
as in our football game, was to get
hold Of this ring and carry it in tri
umph to spot selected few yards
of. The rings were numbered from
one to thirteen, and the man " ho
captured lumber one was to be
chief.
The strife was very lively and in
resssnt. as a fresh bomb would be
fred of before the ring from TIE pre-
ceeding bomb bad been taken in.
The rings, whuse numbers we're un-
known 10 the contestants candidates.
were taken and given over to coun-
Gil of arbitrstors, who, alter the bat
tie, we're 10 name the winning man

sprinkling Of indians were present
and enjoyed the novel show very
much. We have not yet learned the
name o; the honored pig tail who is

Eighteen Hundred BeggarS

Eighteen Hundred BeggarS.
you want to know how many
mendicants there are in Philadelphia?
Well, I should say there were 1, $780,"
said Charles D. Kellogg, general
secretary OF the society for organizing
charity, in reply 10 question from q
Record reporter. Last winter
Mayor S,okley took q census OF this
class of our people for the benefit Of
the society, and be found there were
l 800 persons dependent upon street
begging for support, while in the
house OF correction and almshouse
there were 600 more seeking food and
shelter during the winter months, bat
who would become common beggars
when W6rm Weat er returned. OF
course some of these were forced by
circumstances to beg, but ths greater
number did so from choice or laziuess.
whichever you wish to call it Bust
ness being bstter this winter than
last, there are fever men out of
work. Besides this, the society has
cut of the sources OF supply of many
men0icants, and. as a consequence of
these two facts We 6ud the number Of
persons needing relief reduced by
several hundred. Nine tenths of the
street beggsrs will refuse work ifI
offered them. Last winter the super-
intendent of one OF the district sssn-
Citations sent 200 able-bodied men to
the wood yard, and how mauy of
them do you suppose reported 10 the
manager and earned their bread by
work? Just thirty; the other ITO pre.
ferring to beg from soft-hearted per
sons who would give them food or
clothing without inquirlng into the
needs of the recipient. Wien the
society began It's operations it found |
hundreds of families that depended |
upon soup houses for their FOOD and |
the guardians OF the poor for fuel
cheating the landlords out of rant bv |
moving as often as possible. Neither |
the men nor women would work |

MISS Collins Novel.

a
g. w. Harlan, publisher, New
York, viii soon issue from the press
a. novel by one of Montgomery
c0unty's most talented daughters.
A lady known to local literary
fame under the nom de plume OF
IS. M. A. Co." but whose real name
is Miss Matte A. Collins. Miss
Collins book will be entitled 1.-THE
Homestretch," and is said to be a
well-written, interesting and high
ly creditable production. This, we
believe, il Miss Collins first essay
at novel writing, but if her former
productions OF both prose and po-
etry, many of which have been pub
lished in the best and most critical
periodicals and newspapers in the
country, are to be taken as any cri-
terrain of what her novel is to be,
the many friends and admirers of
her acknowledged literary genius
need not fear the result. We shall
look forward to the reading of "The
Homestretch" with pleasure, and
hope it will be met with great fa-
vOr from the novel reading public
everywhere.
