TRIEL COLLEGE
Discussed by the Pittsburs Synod YES
tertIRy Morning.

The third days session of the Pittsburg
Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran church
opened at o'clock with the customary
routine business.
In the morning session the report OF the
trustees of the Thiel College in Greenyille.
Pa, was read. This report shows that the
number of scholars will, in the coming
year, be so large that q new building has
TO be erected as soon as possible, at least
for temporary purposes. There were dur
ing the last year four professors, one tutor
and one female music teacher. II is known
that music is not rs well cared
for in any other college. Finsn-
cially the situation is not very good
one, ss the income does not cover the eX-
penSes. A debt of 5000 has accumulated
during the last ten years. The SYNOD is
now trying to secure q solid financial basis
to the college. The plan to be- carried out
will be made known afterwards. To begin
with there were 81, $50 collected among the
preachers and delegates.
In the afternoon session the plan for an
appropriate celebration OF Luther'S iOOth
birthday was adopted.
The Alliance Mission and the First Ger
man Lutheran congregation were received
as members.
In the evening Rev. II. Peters and Rev.
S MAnSh preached.

UsELESS PARADE.
Yesterday = Exhibition Ofthe City Fire
Department.


Department.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon, an
alarm of fire was sounded from box %, at
the city building. 1t was not a fire, at all,
but simply test alarm, turned in for the
purpose of exhibiting our department to
the members of the Pittsburgh Synod of the
Lutheran Church. The gentlemen were
assembled in the yard of the city building,
and the pulling was done by Chairman K
+. Criswell, OF the Fire Committee. The
engines, reels and hose carts responded in
good time. and made a creditable exhibit
ton. One of the Hook and Ladder truck
horses got wild at the alarm, and detained
the truck for a time, but otherwise good
showing was made, and the visitors ex.
pressed themselves pleased,
It is doubtful however, whether this
kind of an exhibition is commendable. The
SYNOD is composed OF worthy gentlemen,
whom our people delight 10 honor, but
there are other ways of entertaining them
than uselessly tearing the fire department
10 pieces. Knowing citizens hive be fore
condemned this needless wear Of the fire
service II our streets were made of as
pbaltum, or wood or stone blocks, the case
would be different, but there is no use in
rushing the steamers pell NELL over these
rough bouldered streets. At nearly every
fire something breaks down and entails ex-
pense, but then it is necessary, but it is a
doubtful policy which advocates the I'M
n necessary wear and tear of an exhibition.
Mr.. Crisswell thought the run would do
no harm, after months inactivity. Chief
Eccles did not say much about it, though
his experience tells him how much DAMAGE
might be done by a useless run. Mayor
Egerter good naturally thought exhibitions
were frauds,

it; and If not, upon the most available
candidate. Said Caleb Sylvis, member oil
the committee:
There will be q resolution introduced
recommending Gojf as Ohio county's choice
in the convention. There will be no at

The Lieutenant would not disclose who
would have the honor of offering this reSo-
luton, but left the impression that he him.
self would shoulder the responsibility. .,
Justice VIM. Philips, who made himself
famous in the Moundsyille convention oil
1873 by his pronunciamiento that more
hearts beat for General Golf than any man
in the district is of the same opinion still.
He says that Il Golf accepts the nomination

The Squire is quite confident OF Gofs

of $4,000 to Republicanize the district
