II is true that some Senators are bad
men in purchased seats, but, as a rule,
they are somewhat smarter in worldly
experience than the caIIow youths who
have been taught out Of books to pass
parrot examinations. The first ques-
ton is to Senator Dawes, sometimes
called by ribaId Democratic newspa-
pers "Dodgcr Dawes" lie replies as
follows
"These gentlemen inform me that they
shall put questions TO me from time to
time This is commendable. and they
are entitled to a respectful answer,
which they shall have at all times from
me. But you can inform them that it
will not be necessary for them to be at

their questions twenty times, as in this
instance, or Of procuring five hundred
names. for q note from any one Of

by the owners OF land and marine prop

A special committee of Post 8 yesterday
marked the graves Of their deceased comrades
in the different cemetries with a small G. A.

and decorated with flowers. Their desire is
that none shall be missed.
Though the number of victims of the civil

number are in the Allegheny, the Northside

that there are about 48 in the Oakland, So

but of the entire amount no record seems to
have been kept.

A GRAND OPEN DAY.

The Forbes srreer School Surprises the VS.
itors By its Great ResuIts-The Work
Admired BY Large Crowd.
Yesterday was "open day." or rather 3
public reception was given at the Forbes
street school, and 1t was an occasion OF gen.
eral enjoyment to the teachers, pupils and
visiting people alike. The day is chosen
annually for the pleasing exercises. as In its
wake follows Decoration Day, aud for this
reason profusion Of flowers were furnished
by the pupils to aid in the decorating OF
graves to-day. About $50 pots Of blooming
plants were donatedby the scholars.
This institution is probably the largest In the
city, containing % rooms and having an enroll
ment of 200 names. The exercises are carried
out in each room, and vast amount OF energy
and patience must have been SHOWN Dy INC
about such faultless results. as was demon
strated yesterday.
To speak of features singly would be futile,
as the entertainments was one big event on sne
whole Every room exhibited somebnlng
novel, and especially was the manuscripts ot
the pupils meritorious. The other features
were the freehand drawing specimens. one o.
which in room q was a school bouquet OF Varle-
gated colors in which the artistic touch OF every
pupil added finish and beauty to 1t. ms
WAS ESPECIALLY ADMIRED.
The singing. gymnastics and drill were worth
money to the oldest spectators, who never
dreamed of such scholastic progress SINCE the
days when "readln', writin' and arithmetic"
were the prime factors of education.
The colored pupils showed rare accomplish
ments from the discipline, and one little fellow
in charge of Miss Flynn, of room No. l,
evinced powers of elocuGion which might some
day gain for him the name of the 'Colored
Brutus."
There were hundreds of visitors present. and
Prof. L. II. Eaton, with his corps Of efficient
educators may feel proud of the compliments
paid them in behalf of the children under their
instruction.

BREWERS on JUDGE WHITE.
About Fifteen Delegates VIII Go to the Ma
tional Convention.


The regular weekly meeting of the Allie
gheny County Brewers Association was
held yesterday at their rooms on Fourth
avenue. The meetings which were formerly
SO prolific of spicy incidents and news items
have now settled down into merely routine
work.
At yesterdays gathering the most important
matter was the discussion Of Judge Whites
speech at Old City hall. The President of the
association, Mr.. Straub, discussed it
at great length, and pointed out
humber of inconsistent remarks in
the address. The statements made by Judge
White, while sitting in the License Court, were
shown to be at variance with some of his re.
marks Tuesday evening. The discussion was
merely informal, and no action upon the matter
was taken.
It was decided to send as many delegates to
the national convention as could possibly at
tend, in order to make as good impression upon
the national organization as possible and thus
help them secure aid. About 10 or l6 delegates
will go from this city. The convention will be
held Tuesday June kat Niagara Fails. The
delegates will leave via the Allegheny Valley
Railroad Monday evening.
The Campaign Committee reported progress
at the meeting, and was continued. The work
of sending out the anti-prohiDition literature is
being pushed with vigor. The force of clerks
under Secretary Kemmick has been increased
to about dozen. The meeting to be held next
week has been postponed.
