The average salary of the 54,s47
fourth-class postmasters in the
United States is only $l53. There
are less than 5000 who have $500
or more a year, and the average
salary of the remaining 4s,sOO is
only 500, These are very petty
offices to be made the occasion of
so much political disturbance, and
any really workable plan which
should take them all out of politics
and fill them acceptably would be a
boon to the people.

There will be a strong effort made

There will be a strong effort made
at the coming session of Congress to
secure the passage of a national
bankrupt law. The insOlvent laws
of the different states are by no
means uniform, and many of them
are extremely unsatisfactory in their
workings, especially those which
allow debtors to make outrag eous
preferences, which simply serve to
cheat distant creditors out of their
dnes. 1t is a simple matter of JUS
lice to the commercial world that
there should be a uniform national
law, securing just distribution of
assets among all creditors.

THE AUSTRALIAN EXPERIMENT

The Australian voting system, in
its full length and breadth, was
tried for the first time in Massachus-
etts last week, and the success
which attended it apparently ex-
ceeded the expectations Of its most
sanguine friends. Reports received
all point in one direction. That the
system worked liked charm seems
to be the verdict from every town
and polling place heard from in the
State. The difficulties which it's OPP
ponents anticipated, or pretended to,
did not materialize, the voting went
on even more rapidly than under
the old system, aud the mistakes, we
venture to say, were not nearly as
many as happened under the old
system Ivy reason of split tickets and
tickets counterfeited to resemble
the straight tickets of the two par
ties. The most striking result was
the good order about the polling
places that the new system prodnc'
ed. There was no soliciting, no
JooUiinS, no noise, no confusion.
Instead Of cutting down the total
vote, as many predicted that it
would, it seems rather to have in
creased it, many voters whom dis
gust with the methods that have
been in vogue at the polling places
had heretofore kept at home, com
ing out and voting. The only dis,
satisfied persons with the working
of the new system appear to be the
ward heelers, who find their occu-
patton gone.

GREAT ATLANTIC & PACIFIC TEA CO.


Leauin& lea House Ol
1t is no wonder that this tea company has
met with such success when one takes into
consideration the energy, enterprise and push
displayed by it from their start in 1851 TO the
present day. The fact that the name of this
tent than any other in the world goes to prove
that its business great success.
There have, however, been no lmltators who
have made q notable success The reason IS
not hard to discover. The Great Atlantic ana
Pacific Tea Company, with its 200 large stores
in different cities of the United States, has
been able to conduct its business on scale of
magnitude that enabled it to obtain prices far
below its competitors, and thus sell to its
patrons at the lowest prices. Everyone should
call and examine their stock of teas, which
include all the choicest varieties known. Most
celebrated among these is the Thea-N ectar.
put up in ne-pound boxes only 6Oc pound.
With each pound a special present is given. 1t
is upon the fine quality and delightful flavor OF
this delicious brand of tea that much of the
high reputation of the company has been built
1t is worthy place on any table.
The Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company
has six stores in PIttsburg and Allegheny
which have been highly prosperous under the
management of MIR. Owen Jones' doing a very
large business in the most satisfactory manner
TO its patrons.
Besides teas this company handles the we'll
known A. & P. baking powder, which is the
purest and best article of the kind on the mar
ket; they sell the excellent A. P. brand of
is unsurpassed The location of their stores is
as follows:

DO YOU WANT A FINE PIANOs

The Everett Club or CO. Operative System
Offers the following inducements, if you
wish to pay cash: By becoming a member
you will save SIS in the price of the piano,
and get it at once. If you cannot spare the
cash you can get your piano any time, on
payment of SIS cash and 81 so per week,
no interest, and still save S75 in the price.
If you cannot pay so fast, by waiting
until your number is drawn you will get
YOUR piano on payments of 81 per week. no
interest, and save SIS in the regular price
to our retail trade. Think of this! Our
club is composed of $50 members, each
paving 81 per week. Thus you see the
members are buying for cash, and one piano
is delivered to the member whose number
is drawn each week, until all are supplied,
or, if one-half of the members take their
pianos and pay 81 80 per week. we deliver
twice the number, and get double the
amount of cash each week, and it leaves
only one-half the number to be drawn on the
81 weekly payments. 1t is simple business
problem. We are saving our members the
difference in price by contracting for $50
pianos at one time, and on cash basis. We
have now enough members to guarantee the
success of this plan, and have decided to
begin delivering the pianos on Saturday,
September 81. Do not wait, but apply for
membership at once. Call and see the
piano, or send for circular.

RIVER ENCROACHMENTS.
Captain Dravo Stirs Up the Chamber of
Commerce on the Subject-He is Afraid
of Big Floods,

Cnptnin Dravo Stirs Up the Chamber of
of Big Floods.
Hon. John +. bravo, who has just re-
turned from a convention of rivermen at
Cincinnati, made a verbal report, and
stated that among many other subjects dis
cussed which were important to this city was
one about the encroachment on the river chan
nels by manufacturers. This matter, the
speaker said, was an important one. and if not
stopped will, in time, cause repetition of the
Johnstown flood. He characterized the filling
in as an unmitigated outrage, that should re-
ceive immediate attention.
Hon. Morrison Foster stated that in 1858 the
State established high and low water lines for
Pittsburg and Allegheny, and a map was made
by surveyors. This map was filed in the Court
of Common Pleas, and will show who are
encroacbing on the water lines. He suggested
that the Committee on Rivers ana Harbors be
instructed to look the matter up.
Captain Bachelor called attention to the fill
ing in at the B. & o. depot which he said would
some day sadly injure the Monongahela wharf.
Encroachments have also been made at the
Point to the extent of 25e feet beyond the line,
and the result of this contraction must eventu-
ally cause flood IN Pittsburg and Allegheny.
Colonel Bayne asked permission to make
few remarks on the subject, which was granted.
Mr.. Bayne then stated that the work of estab-
fishing water lines was supererngation on the
part Of the State of Pennsylvania, and she had
no legal right to do it. The work of establish
ing such lines belongs distinctly to the Ma
Iional Government, which has supreme juris-
dicron in such matters. He advised the Cham
Der Of Commerce not to commit itself on the
question.
Morrison Foster stated that the establishment
of such lines by the State had never been ques-
toned, and the matter would therefore be one
for the courts. Mr.. bravo suggested that the
matter was one which needed immediate atten-
tion, and that Colonel Merrill should be CON-
municated with on the subject, which was
agreed to. Anderson & Co., of the Mononga-
hela House, were admitted as members, and
the meeting adjourned.

Yesterday morning the Coroner held an
inquest on the body of Michael Francis

East End on Saturday night. The leading
parties in the case were examined, and some
interesting facts gained from their testimony.
Dominica De Lalla was in the room where
the murder was committed during the hours OF
and 10. He said that five people we're there,
and he denied that the prisoner had played
cards with the deceased. The prisoner hearo
his brother say that he was going to play caros
with another man for 50, and forbade him to DO
it, The deceased insisted that he would play,
and struck his brother for interfering Inc

witness, and added that the prisoner trleu 70

trying to get something out OF his INSIDE

"Oh, my poor brother"
Guitano Martenello also testified that the de-
ceased had struck his brother and had 1orced
the quarrel, aud that he even held closed

have been fatal.
All the brothers testified that the deceased
and his brother were very bad men, and had
that reputation in Italy. There had been no
card playing previous to the trouble. and it was
the desire TO play which led to the murder. The
five persons present all contributed something
toward buying keg of beer. and the men We're
slightly under its effects when the trouble

The jury rendered verdict to the effect that
the deceased came to his death through vio-

will be still more marked after everyone has

Dabbs in the Arr Gallery.

In spite of the attractions in oil, crayon,
pastelle and of etchings, the portraits of Mr.
Dabbs' creation are as much feature as any,
thing exhibited. Whatwoul an Exposition be
without Dabbs? Did he not take the honors,
even when competitors from abroad, came
to the old building on Smoky Island and tried
to shake the strong hold he has always main
tanned among his Pittsburg friends, and failed
in their designs. Yes, Mr.. Dabbs is in the ad-
vance. None can doubt this when the portraits
of our most notable citizens look them in the
face from their position on the walls and nobly
indorse his work. Pittsburg is proud to own
Mr.. Dabbs, and among his patrons are noted
the best members.of society. 1t is not fad
which. gives him pre-eminence, but the solid
fact that he is an artist, and can give satisfac-
ton when others have failed. When one de-
sires to appear at the best in a portrait, he
always goes to Dabbs.
