OLD LANDMARKS.
DR.. Lambius Beads Paper About Local
Poliurs Of Interest.


DR.. Lambing Reads n Paper About Local
Points OF Interest.
The Western Pennsylvania Historical
Society held regular meeting yesterday
afternoon, and the few members present lis
tened to paper on "Pioneer Landmarks in
Western Pen|nsylvania, . prepared by Rev.
DIR. A. A. LsImbing.
He spoke first of the Indian trails across
the mountains over which the early settlers
found their way. The old Frankstown
road, part oflwhich is now known as Franks
town aveniie, East End, is a landmark
Frankstowlh, after which the road was
named, was little hamlet on the Juniata,
three miles from where Holl1daysburg now
stands. Blair's Gap, named alter John
Blair, an early settler, is also an old land
mark The numerous ferries, which crossed
the rivers at different points, were old land
marks, also among them Harris ferry, by
which the Susquehanna river was
crossed where Harrisburg now stands; and
McKee's ferry. which crossed the Monon-
gahela at McIkeesport, named after David
Mckee, Scoltchman, who settled at the
mouthlof the ssYough," about the middle of
the last century.
Mr. Lambi1g said that in examining the
sites of some Iof those early mills, and the
streams by which the motive power was fur
nished, ne wis surprised to find some of the
streams now merely rills, half a dozen of
which would not furnish sufficient power to
run mill now
Last of all, the crossroads are landmarks.
They are the productions Of civilization.
The cIossf roads soon became the location of
a miniature cottage, with its store, its black
smith shop, its tavern, and its big wooden
pump. e
By request. Dr. Keyser read his paper
again on baseball. j. C. Porter read one on
the Mexican ar.

A HEBREW OPERA.
A Romantic Drama In Turner Hall Draws n
Big Crowd.

AR0mnntic Drama In Turner Hall Draws n
Big Crowd.
The Oriental Opera Company drew big
crowd to Turner Hall last night, the novelty
OF a German-Hebrew play acting as a
mighty attraction. The playbill was for
the most part in Hebrew, and the title of
the piece was "The Emigrant Shoemaker.
or the Sailor Lad" opera in four acts, by
Herr Tomcshovsky. The language used
was the German patois spoken by the
Hebrew races OF central Europe. The
whole opera evidenced the fact that it had
been originally two pieces, which the
author had ingeniously stitched together.
The opera proper dealt with the loves and
sorrows of Miss Rosalia and her sailor hus-
band; while there was companion plot, in
which an emlgrant Hebrew shoemaker, COM
ing to America, makes many funny blum
ders, and host of sage and witty observa-
tions on the novel manners of the people of
the United States. The villain of the piece
was a q. s. navy captain. The emigrant
was admirably performed by M. Gorven-
stein, while the author, NJ Tomcshoysky,
played the sailor and gave full fling to his
fine baritone voice. Miss Tomcshovsky was
a pretty, if rather languishing, heroine, and
Nine Greenberg was capital virago.
The house was most enthusiastic throughout.
and the reporter learned that applause was
the same in Hebrew as it is in English.

ample shown by so many ladies in joining
the temperance societies through the diocese
Women were deeply interested IN battling
with drink, which stole away the peace and
purity of the home. The scene shifter, In
temperance, soon turned the happy cottage
into miserable garret, flied with hungry,
ragged children. He then implored all

cause. At the close of the celebration all
in the church took the temperance pledge,
and 80 ladies enrolled themselves as men,

five TIMES that amount on the wear and tear

HIS TOOLS STOLEN.

Carriage Fnctory systematically Robbed

There has been systematic robbery car
ried on at the carriage works of James w.
Moore, Twenty-seventh and Smallman
streets. 1t appears that for the past few
months valuable tools have mysteriously
disappeared without anybody accounting
for them. The firm duplicated the missing
tools few times, but these, like the others,
were lost Mr.. Moore, however, got tired
of losing so many, SO he put detective to
watch how they were lost. The detectives
investigation proved that the tools have
been carried out few at time until Mr..
Moore has lost $1,000. No arrests have
been made, but it is expected two guilty
parties will be arrested to-day.
