TO-DAY'S PICNIC.
Twenty Thousand People Expected at
Beaver.

PITTSBURGH, June 1.--Now that the much
dreaded issue between manufacturers and
iron workers has happily terminated,
without a strike, the grand annual picnic
of the Amalgamated Association, to be
given at Beaver Fair Grounds tomorrow,
will be the occasion for such general re-
joicing as has not been witnessed IN this
vicinity for a long time. Should the
weather be fair, as ii now promises to be,
the hard-banded iron workers, with their
wives, children and sweethearts, will spend
a day of such unrestrained pleasure and
jOlItiCation at Beaver that will long be re.
membered as one Of the. .happeSt events OF
their lives.
The Arrangements
for the picnic are now complete, with the
exception of few trilling details, which
will be arranged this afternoon by the COM
mittee in charge. The crowd in attendance
will be immense, and Secretary Martin
stated to-day that he expected the gay pic
niCers from Pittsburgh and surrounding
territory will form a grand total OF 2O,OW.
There will be $4,000 from the two cities,
from Wheeling 1000, Youngstown l,5OO,
Sharon 800 New Castle 500, and large
crowds from other points. There will
be a number Of bands in attendance, among
which will be the Grand Army band Of
twenty pieces, Fourteenth Regiment band,
twenty pieces, the Atlantic Band OF sharon
and
The Wheeling Band.
These are the principal musical organi.
| zations, but there viii be q number of
| Others engaged by the lodges of the Anal
gamated Association. The Grand Army
Band will start from the Amalgamated AS
sociation headquarters, on Smithtield
street, and march to Union station, where
! they will take the sos train on the p, +.
| W. 4 G. railroad, and the Fourteenth Reg
| iment Band will leave on the Sis train on
| the p. 4 L. L. Iailroad.
Mr.. Martin stated that there would be
| no speech making or special celebration
| that he knew Of, but that further arrange
mentS might be made by common consent.
Among
The Features Of the Day
not vet mentioned, will be the presenta.
ton of first, second and third prizes, in
the order named, to winners in bicycle
race which has been arranged. The first
prize, beautiful solid gold medal, on the
face of which is the inscription: Annual
Reunion, A. A. of |. Il S. w" Beneath
this is a wreath in raised surface, in the
centre of which is a handsomely engraved

scriptions and surface similar in design,
excepting the fact that they are chased,
instead of being engraved in raised form.
One very cemmendable feature is the
fact that the sale of liquors on the ground
is prohibited, but there will be an abuud-
ance of other refreshments.

Mary Ann Pitts. The verses were very oh.

by almost every resident OF the town.
The envelopes were postmarked at Co

They are both about sixty years old.
II was thought al the time that the yer.
ses were written by Prof. A. Gardiner, Prin-
cipal OF school at Nassau, who had been
on a visit TO Watervleit. He was subse-
ouently arrested, but the Albany County
Grand Jury failed to indiCt him.
To-day Gardiner was again arrested by
Deputy Marshal Packard, of this city, on
warrant issued by the United States author
tiles charging him with sending obscene
matter through the mails. 1t is said that
Strong Evidence
hes been worked up against Gardiner.
He was taken before the United States
Commissioner and bailed fer examination
to morrow morning.
William II. Buswell, q young married
man who resides at West Troy, but IS
clerk in store in this city, was arrested
this evening. 1t is charged that he received
the manuscript from Gardiner, had the
verses printed and hired a man to mail
them at the Cohoes postoffice. The latter
will be arrested tomorrow, and it is said
he will tell the whole story before the Com.
missioner.
The affair has caused excitement in Troy,
Watervliet and Nassau where the parties
are well known.

Plot Against an Archbishop.

QUEBEC, June l.-lntense excitement has
been created here in the ranks of the
Roman Catholic clergy by the discovery Of
plot TO depose the Archbishop OF Quebec.
For long time past there has existed here
a French Canadian society called "Cercle
Catholique, and enjoying the reputation of
being mere Catholic than the Pope one
of its prominent members, Tardivel, editor
OF La Nerte, an ultramontane journal, Sc
cretely addressed letter in 1881 to Cardi
nal Simeoni, setting forth that the DEGREES
of the Papal Court, published in Canada
against the interference of priests in elcc-
tions, &C., showed the Propaganda to be
seriously misinformed as to the condition
Of the Church in this country. AS a
Catholic journalist, he said, he deem
ed it his duty 10 correct these
false impressions, and charged
Archbishop Taschereau with being
partial to Free Masons aud Catholic liber-
ais, and altogether influenced by the ad-
vice of the clergy and professors OF Lavalle,
a liberal Catholic university OF this city.
Mr.. Tardiyel represented to Rome that the
internal dissensions in the Church in Can
ada would not cease while Archbishop
Taschereau remains in office. His letter
must have been sent from Rome to the
Archbishop, as it is published tonight in
a French liberal journal here and creates
the widest excitement against its author.

A Mystery Unearthed.

UNIoSTowH, Pa, June l.-George Hager-
man, respected citizen Of Perry Town
ship went out into the woods to hew tim
ber for erecting a tipple at the Rainbow
coke works. Not returning in the evening
search was made, and he was found lying
by his work unconscious. 1t appears that
while at work on the logs he was struck
with apoplexy, and fell to the ground.
He never regained consciousness, but
died soon afterwards. While some
men were digging a grave for the
burial OF Mr.. Hagerman at Jacobs Creek
Cemetery next day, at a depth OF two feet
they came upon the body of a man who
had been buried without coffin. He was
a full-Sized man, but the remains had been
crammed into hole three feet long. A
fire had been made over the grave, as Goals
were found there. Everything indicated
foul play. Some two years ago three
strange men appeared in the community,
and after short time one of them was
missing. The other two then disappeared.
There is talk of investigating the mystery.

NEWSPAPER ENTERPRIsE.-The Louis
vile Courier-Journal congratulates itself,
and deservedly so, on. its recent splendid
exhibition of enterprise, by which it
was enabled to give the result of the
primary elections in every county of the
States for delegates to the State Conven-
tion to nominate State officers, within
twelve hours after the adjournment of the
county conventions, which were held on
the same day throughout the State. To
accomplish this great journalistic feat
was no easy task. 1t required two months
hard and unrelenting work its success
full elimination. Special correspondents
were secured in the hundred and seventeen
counties of the State, who were to send
special kilograms of the result, and an
idea of the great difficulty of the work is
suggested III the statement that ffty-four
four of the county seats were situated
from fifteen to eighty-fve miles from tele-
graph stations-one half of them hid away
in nearly impenetrable Businesses. Special
messengers had to be fitted out with
horses and armed with bank checks they
melted their way into the remoJest hooks
and corners of the State, paying as they
went. appointing correspondents to write
up the conventions and messengers to de-
liver the reports. 1t was great under
taking, and the Courier-Journal has right
to be proud of it's successful accomplish
ment.

Magistrate Of the Confederacy that he was
right that he defed anyone to counterfeit
his signature. One of the gentlemen who
was present at the interview accepted the
challenge. Mr.. Davis wrote half doz-
en- copies of his autograph and handed
them to the officer. In day or two the
latter presented President Davis with so
or 100 copies of his signature. along with
those written by himself. Mr.. Davis was
requested to select from the budget his
own sign manual. After a careful exam
ination of all the slips before him, the
Confederate President chose half dozen
which he declared to be those written by
himself. He was assured that those selec-
ted by him were counterfeits prepared by
one Of the most expert penmen here. Mr..
Davis W as very much chagrined, and was
forced to confess that. with all the peculi-
arities of his chirography, it could be imi-
tated. The result of the experiment was
that the signatures of the President and
other officers of the Confederacy on the
bonds and notes were Autographed or en-
graved instead of written. This story was
told me by gentleman who says he was
party to the conspiracy to prove to Mr..
Davis that his signature could be counter
felted.- Richmond correspondent o., Norfolk

Identifying a Signature.

/ Handwriting is a very hard thing tc
identify. By the way, Ex-President Jeff
Davis is credited with being made the vic.
tim of a test of the genuineness of his own
writing, and can bear witness to the fact
stated, Soon after the Confederate
capital was established here Mr.. Davis was
consulted by the Treasurer as to the best
mode of attaching the signatures of the
proper officers of the government to the
bonds and treasury notes. Mr.. Davis OBJ
jected to engraving, urging as reason
that the signatures might be easily coun-
terfelted. He was very warm in his OPP
position to that method Of conveying his
sign manual and that of the financial off,
GERS of the government. The President,
in urging his objections to the plan, said
that he knew of cases where engraving
had been frequently counterfeited. The
handwriting was far more to be relied on,
he thought. So confident was the Chief
