GROWING TIE LOTUS.

supr. Hamilton snys His Aquatic Garden
will be Fine, Indeed.
Superintendent Hamilton, of the Allie
eheny Parks, will have the finest aquatic
gardens in the United States by the time
spring comes. The gift of Mr.. Henry
Phipps of that department to be added to
his previous gift of the splendid green
houses in the parks, is about completed, all
that vet remains to be done is being the
building of the tanks in the new addition.
There will be one large central tank 4S
feet long and 80 feet wide, which will be sur
rounded by 80 others made Of slate, each b
feet square. They will all be used for
aquatic plants exclusively, among them
being varieties of the nymphea anelumbium.
In this family the famous lotus flower IS
perhaps best known, it being the sacred
flower of Japan, China and India, OF which
so many legends have been written.
The most important flower, however, will
be one called the Victoria Regia, whose home
is on the banks of the Amazon river, in
Brazil. Its leaves and stock grow to
length of 20 feet, and it is superbly beauti-
ful' MIR. Hamilton has sent to South
America for the seeds of this plant and in
tends to confne its growth to the large tank
in the central building exclusive of all
other specimens.
As to growing the lotus flower, Mr.. Ham
ilton has no fear of its practicability. He
said the plant was generally supposed to be
solely tropical, but horticulturists and
botanists had found in the last
few years that the lotus could stand as much
frost as an oak tree. he, himself, recently
saw it blooming in great profusion on mill
pond covering two acres near Bordentown,
II ,rbicb in vrinter ordinarily was COW
cred by ice foot thick.
Mr.. Hamilton is of the opinion that his
aquatic gardenfis the finest in the country.
The late Samuel j. Tilden had a fairly good
one at his home at Graystone, and Mr.. Kim
ball, the great cigarette manufacturer, of
Rochester, has one of no mean proportions,
but neither can be compared to that of Mr..
Phipps in Allegheny. Everything about
it is now complete except placing the tanks,
and it will be open for public inspection in
the early spAng.

LOU DENNISON,S DOG.
How His Propensity for Stealing Got Him
Into Trouble.

How His Propensity for Stealing Got Him
Into Trouble.
Lou Dennison, Chief Clerk Of the Water
Bureau, has a photograph of his dog Jack
which died short time ago at the advanced
age of II years. In speaking of him yester-
day he said:
''That dog was a confirmed thief, but
rather liked him. The way he learned to
steal was in assisting us boys in playing
baseball. We used to throw the ball to one
another, and if one of the catchers muffed
the ball my dog Jack would get hold OF it
quicker than any che players could and
take it into his box. No stranger in East
Liberty could touch that ball, although the
dog would take three or four balls into his
kennel in the day. OF course 1 had nothing
to saw in the matter, and / think some OF
the East Liberty boys came out ahead on
the kleptomaniacal propensities Of my dog
Jack.
~ believe 1 did myself, for when some
disinterested party would throw stick
into neighbor's orchard and knock pears
off the tree that disinterested pup would
skin in under the fence and catching the
pears that dropped, pick out the ripest
ones, and carry them to the most appreci-
ative person without leaving tooth mark
in the fruit. Yes, we'll remember. was
q mere lad at the time, but, like all boys, !
liked to keep pigeons, and if someone did
not conceive the idea of throwing corncob
into q neighbor's bin to make the dog
fetch it. He generally fetched full ear
back, and was watched with good deal Of
interest and large club by the owner Of
the cornbin for long time. All, that was
happy time for the dog and myself, but
unfortunately the dog contracted bad habits
and commenced to steal. lost respect fol-
that dog, but he is dead now, and never
saw more intelligent animal"

children will be sending in their bill in a
few months for millions of dollars Yes,
millions; If you consider the accumulated
interest, there surely ought to be many
millions for them. That granite break was
q bad one-so bad, that in 1885 the building
had hardly risen from its foundations
President Grover Cleveland came on deck
for his first term then, and Mr.. Nevins be-
came superintendent instead of Mr.. Malone.
Several causes obstructed progress, and,
after some years, or months-I disremember
Mr.. Neyins was succeeded by Mr.. ]. w.
Patterson, one of the most energetic of all
the superintendents. Work got a sudden
boost under him, and when President Ben
jamin Harrison, grandfather of President
Mckee, came in, and reinstated Mr.. Michael
Malone, we all thought that the building
would be finished in a few months, as it
would have been, but for the ifs the
Government threw at honest Malone.
But then more delays came thick
and fast, and folks began to growl. I
remember a reporter coming to Mr.. Malone
in November, '89, and asking him some
questions. The Superintendent answered
him short-like, but said that we expected to
get through in about three years. In 1890
became clerk under Mr.. Malone, and I
held on steadily under him. and under Mr..
c., who followed him, when the Demo-
Gratis got in power again. We thought we
had another boost, but puritanic element
sprang up In Congress, and it was decided
that all ornaments, towers, ETC., on public
buildings were useless and mere vanity. So
we had to knock down half the work and
begin again. after a delay which lasted till
1910. Mr.. c. and Mr.. W had alter
mated in the Office Of superintendent during
that period, and, in 1913, 1 succeeded to the
post.
A REVOLUTION CAME.
"'At last, said 4 can show the world
what real energy is likep But alasl was
doomed to disappointment. In 1918 the
great rebellion of the colored races in
America broke out, and all public works
were suspended for the nine years during
which the bloody contesE lasted. When the

BISHOP TUIGG'S FUNERAL.


About 100 Priests and Bishops WIN Al.
tend-AItoona Business Houses to Close
Father Wall Went Yesterday.
Very Rev. Father Wall, rector Of st.
Paul's Cathedral, left for Altoona on the
dAy express yesterday morning to assist In
the preparations for the funeral OF Bishop
Tuigg, who died Saturday afternoon. All
the priests of this city who can get away
will probably attend the funeral. The re-
mains will be inferred in Altoona.
The funeral services will be held at IL
O'Clock Wednesday morning in st. Johns
Church, of which the late Bishop had been
pastor for 25 years. A solemn pontlneal
requiem mass will be said by Bishop Phelan
of this city, Among others who will assist
will be the Bishops Of the Province OF Penn
sylvania. They are Bishops Mullin, OF
Erie, MeGovern, of Harrisburg. and
O'Hara, of Scranton. There will probably
be 100 priests in the funeral coTtege. Car
dinal Gibbons is expected to be present, ana
the sermon will be preached either by him
or Archbishop Ryan, of Philadelphia.
A general meeting of all the societies con-
nected with st. Johns Church, Altoona, was
held yesterday afternoon. Committees were
appointed to complete the funeral arrange
ments. Captain John McRevin, promi-
nent merchant of Altoona, was selected as
chief marshal for the occasion. Invitations
will be extended to all the Catholic societies
In the diocese to participate in the exercises.
The Catholic business people will close their
doors on the day of the funeral as mark OF
respect to the memory of the dead prelate.
The Altoona City band has been secured to
lead the procession. It Will be the largest
funeral that has ever taken place In Al
toona.
In speaking of the death Of the late
Bishop yesterday, Father Sheedy, Of st.
Mary of Mercy Church, said; u have
travelled all over the Pittsburg diocese,
and never met better congregation than
the one over which Father Tuigg had been
for % years. Twas at st. Johns parish for
two years, and had good chance to observe
the people. They reflected the training they
had received from their pastor. Their
fidelity to the church showed Father Tuigg
to be an admirable priest. The fact that
they were the best congregation of Catholics
ever met speaks volumes for his ability.
The death of Bishop Tuigg will in no way
alter the present administration OF affairs IN
the diocese. The only change it makes is
that Bishop Phelan is now sole Bishop Of
the Pittsburg diocese, and takes away from
him the title of Bishop of the diocese OF
Cibyra in Asia Minor.

FELL FROM A CABLE CAR.

Pride In His Ability to AIight Causes a Man
TO Roll In the Mud.
About 7:5o o'clock last night, as Fifth
avenue cable car was approaching Oakland,
one Of the male passengers, whose name
could not be learned, started to get off
When the conductor offered to slow up, the
passenger, who was very dudishly dressed,
said that he could jump just as easily when
the car was moving rapidly, and that it was
entirely unnecessary for the conductor to
trouble himself Then. gathering his cream
colored top coat about his manly form, he
made the attempt. Itwas q failure-dis-
astrously so. He landed on his feet,
wavered, stumbled and fell prone son his
back in about two inches Of mud. His
clothing was. soiled, but he escaped without
serious bodily injury
The incident furnished the conductor with
hearty laugh, which lasted throughout the
entire trip. Several times he was appar-
emily on the point of going into convulsions,
50 great was his mirth.

Valuable Hints

To those who require a stimulant: Buy the
purest and the oldest and avoid the cheapest,
for the latter will indeed be the most ex-
pensive in the end. If you give it a thought
you will agree with me. The tax to the
Government and the aging of whiskies and
other liquors naturally changes the price Of
first cost, yet I have on hand, and will sell
as cheap as the cheapest, all kinds. But be
advised by me to buy Silver Age at 81 30
per bottle. Six-year-old Finch, Gibson,
Overholt and GHckenheimer at 81 each or
six quarts for S.. have the following old
rye whiskies now in stock and for sale:
fS6s-1S73 Overholt, 1873-1S75 Gibson, 1879
Guekenheimer and Finch. These goods are
scarce and valuable. Secure them while
you can. Brandies, gins, Jamaica and
New England runs, eordials of all favors,
wines both sparkling and still, and all prin-
cipal brands, can be had at my place. Also
full line of malt liquors. Quick deliveries
and neat packing are two of my established
rules. Come to Max Klein, 81 Federal ST.,

forward in evidence her grand ship canal
from both Lakes Michigan and Erie to the
Atlantic. incidentally connecting by rivers
and immense reservoirs, with the Gulf;
her immense commerce, and the billions of
dollars she represented. The States south
of the Gulf of Mexico championed the cause
of Rio, so that there was sectionalism as
pronounced as during the latter half of the
nineteenth century; Pittsburg was sup
ported by all the Northern States, including
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana
and Texas. The then President, Benjamin
Harrison Mckee, rudely nicknamed Baby

not too large for him, but rather small

the Senatorial Tribunal--which settled it.

Bishop PheIan Confers His Mark on the
Father Matthew Club.
The Father Matthew Association, of this
city, the new temperance organization
founded among the better Class of Catholic
Young men, has issued circulars in regard
to the objects OF the association. It is stated
that the association was organized to correct
the errors of the past and lift up young men
to higher life. The object will be to sup
ply. as far as in the power of the members,
the means of self culture and intellectual
entertainment to those who desire to avail
themselves of the help which others can
give, and in turn assist others toward the
same end. They expect to adopt a system Of
literary study, after the style OF the Chau-
tauoua and the Columbian Literary Circles
Being merely in its inception, the sssocia-
tion will shape its general course to suit the
wants of its members.
The Father Matthew Association is not .
Temperance" society in the ordinary ac-
ceptation of the term. The members believe
that they will be better men, better citizens,
better Catholics il they do not drink; and
especially as an organization they will ex-
ert more influence for good if total absti-
nenee be a. condition of membership. The
obligation is for two years. Rt Rev. Bish-
op Phelan has just given the sign Of his
cross to the association. This is special
mark OF distinction.
