Jacob Brubach, of Allegheny, Sends BuI.
let Through His Heart-Despondency
Was the Cause.
Jacob Brubach, aged q years, son of
David Brubach, blacksmith on North
avenue, Allegheny, committed suicide
about 6 o'clock last evening at his home, 70
East street, by sending bullet through his
heart. He and his brother had been
working at their fathers shop all
day, but young Brubach went
home early. His 12-year-old sister was in
the house when he arrived and says he went
into the parlor to write letter. A few
minutes later she heard a pistol shot and
ran into the room, where she saw her brother
lying on the sofa with blood streaming from
a wound in the left breast.
The little girl ran to her fathers shop and
told of the shooting. They promptly sum-
moned DR.. P. W. Heron, but his services
were not needed. as the bullet pierced the
heart and death was instantaneous.
Lying at the side of the young suicide
was the revolver and an unfinished letter.
He had evidently began writing to explain
the cause of his action, but fearing that he
would be interrupted before he could carry
out his intention left the note
unfinished. The letter and the
revolver were taken in charge
by the doctor who, at the request of the
family, refused to make known the con-
tents of the missive. The suicide was care
fully planned, for the young man opened
his shirt and placed the muzzle of the re-
yolver, 32-caliber, directly over his heart.
The only cause assigned by the members
of the family is dependency. He had been
greatly attached to young lady, Miss
Annie Roth, and secured position for her at
the home of his uncle, Judge Gripp. He
visited her regularly, and it is said gave her
his earnings to save for him. They had
planned trip to Cleveland to visit the
girls parents, when he received letter
stating that she had gone alone, and that
their relations must cease.
It was reported that they were engaged to
be married, but brother of the deceased
denied that they contemplated marriage.
The house where the suicide was CON-
mitted is directly opposite the home of Mrs.
Laudenslager, who ended her existence the
other day by jumping from third-story
window

GAME GOES ANYHOW.
Chicago Ships it Here in Refrigera-
tors, in Season and Out.
SPORTSMEN SHOOT AND ANGLE.ToO,
Whether the Law Says They May or Not
So Sag the Posted.
UNION LEAGUES EXAMPLE ISOLATED

Eating game during the hot season is
practiced very extensively by epicures, no
matter what the cost may be, or the liability
the restaurateur takes in serving &. In
some portions of Pennsylvania the game
laws are rigidly adhered to, and the recent
action Of the Union League Club in resolv-
ing that no game shall be served on the
table after the limit of the law has expired,
is especially commended by local lovers of
shooting.
William Bown, the well-known sportsman
and handler of sporting goods, said, when
asked if the game laws were violated in this
section of the State to any great extent:
''In many cases they are, but the country
and mountain people are not to blame; it is
the city sports who are the violators. They
go out camping, and carry with them full
supply Of guns, ammunition and fishing
tackle. If the fishing is not good, as d.
vertissement shooting is indulged in, no
matter whether the law is violated or not
81 am glad that the Union League has
taken such action, and think if our asso-
ciation-the Western Pennsylvania Sports
mans Association-should take hold of the
matter, 1t could accomplish manifold
good.
"Woodcock is the first game which can
legally be shot, and its season begins July
4 This is too early for any feathered game,
as it Is too hot for the birds to be in con-
dition as an edible"
Dave LAUDER, caterer, said: IT am
against all shooting Of game fowls in the
spring; especially the duck, which is much
better eating in the fall. When water
fowl is killed in the spring there Is a
''fshy" taste to it which is very obnoxious
and unpalatable. We do not have great
demand for game here, but should such a
call be made for big dinner or a swell
supper, our most practical plan and surest
point of securing it is Chicago, where all
manner of wild game is sold the year round.
"The refrigerator men seem to stand in
with the Illinois officials, as they are never
molested BY the minions of the law for
openly violating the mandates. They re-
ceive in large quantities the game from the
Northwest, where there are no restrictive
measures relating to the shooting of game.
Crook trout is sold in and out of season,
but not to very great extent during the
illegal period"

FOR A WORTHY CHARITY.

A Meeting to Stir Up Two Kinds of Sym.
pathy for an Institution.
A special service in behalf of tbe Chris
tian Home for Women, No. 1873 Locust
street, Allegheny, will be held at Emmanuel
Church, corner of North and Allegheny
avenues, Allegheny, tomorrow evening. 1t
will commerce at 7:45 o'clock. A sermon
on behalf of the institution will be preached
by the rector, the Rev. M. Byllesby, and a
collection made for its benefit.
This Institution is part of the work of
the Women's Christian Association. It's
object is to provide refuge for young girls
who have gone astray but desire to
return to the right. Its work has for
years been quietly but effectively carried on
under many difficulties. 1t is little before
the public from the character of the charity.
but it has peculiar claims on the sympathy
of Christian people as the only institution
Of the kind in the two cities. 1t is hoped
that there will be large attendance and q
liberal offering.
The officers of the Home for 1889 are:
President, Mrs. f. r. Brunot: Vice Presi-
dent Mrs. William Nelson; Secretary, Mrs.
Joseph F. Smith; Treasurer, Miss M. A.
Sterling.

GREAT GREASERS NEARBY.

OIL In InNeighboring Townships TIL There Are
Derricks An Around-WeiIs That Don't
Count In the Markers.
1t would appear thar the producers Of Pc
troleum are getting quite modest, and that,
although field news is quite bearish Of late,
as reported, it by no means gives full de-
tails Of what is going on. For instance,
what does the world know about the opera
tions in Stowe and Robinson townships,
within sight of this city? And yet derricks
are getting thick, and can be seen from
every elevation of consequences in that sec
ton. Almost all the land in these town
ships is leased at rentals ranging from 81 an
acre up-some long way up.
And they are getting good wells there.
The Aiken is said to be large, and the
Oliver, on Moon run, is known to be good.
Grease has been found in the well on the
James Moore farm, mile or so this side of
Montour run, but the operators seem dis
posed to keep the thing as quiet as possible.
The Schmid well, nearer the run, bored
some years ago, is known to contain oil. but
the lessees seem to be in no hurry to realize.
Since its boring much industry has been
exhibited in securing leases. There is 9
new rig built on the Pine Hollow road back
Of McKee's Rocks, and the roads through
all that section are cut up badly by the
heavy teams that transport pipe and other
well supplies.
The drillers on the we'll on the Arbuckles
farm, between CHARTERS station, on the
Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railway, and the
Steubenville pike, met with mishap day
or two snce, striking fssure at the depth
of 900 feet, which has made the hole crooked.
They have since been doing some heavy
shooting, in hopes to find renewed solidity;
but, so far, to no purpose. At irst25 pounds
of dynamite were used, and then shot after
shot with pnre glycerine was tried, until 125
quarts were used, and now it is thought the
work must begin de novo in another place.
The business promises to demoralize farm
ing as badly as the laying out of new town
does when it gives farmers the lot-selling
fever. A good many farmers cannot wait
slow growth of crops for revenue when they
can make s. day hauling well supplies.

CoIored Anti Prohibition Meeting Ajax
Runs it and Minister Talks TO It
Broadax and Bryce Break in.
The colored peoples anti-prohibition mass
meeting was held last night in Lafayette
Hall. The meeting was called to order by
Ajax Jones. Thirty-one persons were pres
ent, including about half dozen Prohi-
bitionists. Fully one-third of the audience
was white The President introduced as
the speaker "the Cicera Of the West" the
Rev. r. G. Christy, of Indiana.
Mr.. Christy said he did not believe in
drunkenness. He favored temperance, and
had never been drunk in his life. He did
not believe, however, in prohibition, and
upheld his position by reference to the Bible.
BE mentioned Christ using wine, and main
tanned that moral suasion was the method
by which to make man good, and not force.
During the progress of his speech he said
that there is no authority in the Scriptures
for prohibition. One of the prohibition
hearers exclaimed that there was no alcohol
mentioned in the Scriptures.
Mr.. ChrlstY replied that strong drink was
referred to.
Broad-Ax Smith, who was present
The speaker quoted a passage in Deuter-
opomv. in which strong drink is mentioned,
triumphantly adding: There, nowI 1
guess you'll turn about four shades blacker
than you are!"
Broad Ax-Who you call black? You'se
black yourselfl
Mr.. Christy-I guess it's no disgrace to
be black.
Broad A1-Don't call a man black then.
1 amt any blacker than you are. My color
less as nice as yours is. You want to be
white, and can't; that's what's the matter
with you'll
Mr.. Bryce, the Prohibitionist. arose and
said that he was on the prohibition side
and wanted to give a fair hearing to both
sides, and would like the Chairman to keep
order.
Mr.. Christy said that the Prohibitionists
were the last people to give fair hearing
to any one.
Ajax Jones stepped forward and re-
quested the Prohibitionists to wait until the
speaker was through; then they could throw
down the gauntlet and enter the arena.
The speaker continued, stating that John
Wesley considered it no harm to go to
tavern and drink his mug of beer or mug of
ale.
Mr. Bryce exclaimed: ''Give US the docu-
ments for that?'
Mr.. Christy retorted: "You wouldn't be-
lieve it if did" Further, he asked, who
are the leaders of the Prohibition party?
He said they were run down disgruntled,
disappointed men of every political party,
with the exception of few local men. In
the category he placed st. John, Neil Dow,
Brooks and others.
Toward the close Mr.. Bryce told him to
look out; that it was lightning back
there"
He replied that, for the last few weeks,
when the Prohibitionists were meeting, it
was likely to burn them up with hot
weather. On the first of the meetings of the
other side God sent cool rain, to show his
appreciation.
When Mr.. Christy had finished Mr..
Bryce called for Broad Ak Smith; but Ajax
Jones pounded the table with his fist, in lieu
of gavel, and exclaimed: ''This meeting
stands adjourned"

UNIQUE GLASS SHOP.
New 1O-Pot Furnace in Wilmerding
for Electric Supplies.
1T WILL EMPLOY 200 to 800 MEN,
Be Built at Once and Operated as Only the
Second of Its Kind. y
HOW 10000 GLOBES ADAY AREEOW HAD

A glass manufacturing establishment,
known as the East Pittsburg Glass Com
pany, is new acquisition to the number OF
Pittsburg industrial concerns. The glass
company concluded negotiations with the
East Pittsburg Improvement Company yes
terday for the purchase of about two acres
of ground in Wilmerding, and the building
of the plant will be almost immediately
commenced.
The glassware manufactured at the new
establishment will be entirely confined to
such articles as are used in the putting up
of electric lights, incandescent lamps and
arc light plants, electric light globes, shades
and similar electrical appliances made Of
glass will be made there.
There is at present only one glass factory
manufacturing those articles in the country.
That is the Corning Glass Company, at
Corning, N. Y. This branch of the latter
concern was called into existence by the
Edison Electric Company, and until the
Westinghouse Electric Company became
THE EDIsoN's CoMPETIToR,
the latter was the largest customer the
Corning Glass Company had. The Westing-
house people, however, do now business
which necessitates supply of 10000 glass
globes for incandescent lights each day,
which the company has to buy and pay a
profit on. 1t is chiefly for the purpose Of
saving the expense of purchasing the lamps
that the new glass company will be started
up. The gentleman at the head of the East
Pittsburg Glass Company is Mr.. A. L.
Reineman, who was formerly Superintend-
ent of the lamp department in the West
inghouse Electric Company. 1t is, how
ever understood that Mr.. Westinghouse is
interested in the new glass company and
lends it his financial backing.
A gentleman who is interested in the new
concern stated as follows to a DISPATCH
reporter regarding the proposed manufac-
ture Of glass globes, ETC., yesterday:
HOW THEY LOOK UPON IT.
''The great reason why the manufacture
of such articles should be carried on in
Wilmerding is principally on account of
the advantages the East Pittsburg Improve
ment Company offer in the way of natural
gas The use of that fuel for making cleo
trio light globes is very important 1t
produces better article, on account of the
absence of sulphur in natural gas and mas
much as Wilmerding is only about six miles
from Murrysville, the gas can be easily had.
"The Corning people have so far had a
monopoly OF electric glassware manufactur-
ing in this country, but when the East
Pittsburg Company gets in operation
think it will be strong competitor on ac-
count of superior facilities.
The company will soon commence to build
ten-pot furnace, and from 200 to 300 men
will find employment at the place. The
erection of the plant will commence next
week, and the operation of the furnaces will
start next fall.

Envious, and No Wonder.

1t took us just five years to attain the
prominence we have reached in the eyes OF
the Pittsburg public. Our rivals-we don't
recognize them as competitors-blow hard
and long of the big bargains they show in
mems suits, and since we started advertising
our $40 suits they follow like sheep in our
footsteps. It's clear case of jealousy.
We've proved our genuine worth to one and
all, and now that it's conceding the p @. G.
G. name ''the lowest prices for fine clothing" +"
we mean to hold on tight and retain the grip
we purchased only after using liberal sup
ply of pure American grit and downright
hard work. Come and see the four big bar
gains we show to-day. No. is mems suits
at $40, sold elsewhere at S18; No. 2 is nobby
children's suits at 50 and So; No. 8 is mems

Truly a Strange Story.

An innocent reporter of an evening paper
was imposed upon yesterday. Somebody
told him that Franklin B. Gowen, as one Of
the big owners of the Reading Railroad,
the bitter enemy of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road, is leading the prosecution in the Fed
eral street accident, in the courts Of this
county, because he has hopes of getting a
verdict which viii compel the Pennsylvania
Company to abolish grade crossings and
build elevated tracks in Pittsburg and Allie
gheny; that this will cost 50 many millions
that the Pennsylvania Railroad will become
financially embarrassed; that the Reading
road will thereby, be on top; and the re-
porter printed it all.
