FRITZ STREET PEOPLE HOT.

Councilman Carr Has Promised to Stir the
Matter of Obstruction.
The people who live on Fritz street,
Twenty-seventh ward, are on the point of
rebellion over the blockade of the street by
the Pittsburg Incline Plane Company.
They say they have had no use of it for two
months, and hold that moderate amount
of effort would soon abate great nuisance.
Councilman P. M. Carr has agreed to
carry the matter into Councils, and the COM
plainants assert that if they do not get
speedy relief they will be heard from in
some other manner.

To Band Together for Their Mutual We'll
fare and Protection.
The machinery molders held meeting on
Thursday night to concert measures for an
amalgamation, but they were unable to
agree, as Nas already foreshadowed in these
columns. Too much jealousy is reported as
existing between the three organizations to
allow of any amicable arrangement regard
ing a uniting OF forces for mutual good
being brought about. So much the better
for the manufacturers. who will find it
easier to treat with divided trade than
with one whose members were disposed to
act together harmoniously.

Thirty.Five Dollars Per Day to be Paid by
the Traction Company.
The Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester
Traction Company has at last decided to
run its cable cars over the Suspension
bridge. They have made an arrangement
with the bridge company, and will pay
ST., 900 per year toll. This will amount to
over $35 per day for the privilege of run
ming the cars over the bridge.
At meeting of the committees of the
traction and bridge companies yesterday the
matter was satisfactorily settled. The plans
of the bridge company for the improvement
of the structure were exhibited. It was
stated that the company would extend the
piers of the bridge and build two additional
tracks for the grip cars. The new structure,
when completed, will be what is known as a
trotting bridge. The cost of the improve
ment will be about 100000. A meeting of
the directors of the bridge company will be
held within few days to ratify the action
of their committee. 1t is said the toll to be
paid BY the traction company is over per
cent of the cost of the bridge.

PHENOMENAL SALE
or Everett Pianos at 137 Federal ST., ALE.
Rheny, Pa.


gheny, Pa.
We have been so rushed this week with
purchasers for those lovely Everett pianos
that we have not had time to write adver-
tisements. Our trade and our stock has
grown SO large since we adopted the club
system that we have been compelled to rent
an additional wareroom at q Federal ST.,
and we have now without exception the
largest stock of fine pianos in the two cities.
We buy our pianos in lots of $50 at once,
and will sell you a piano at least $75 less than
any other house in the State can sell the
same grade of instruments. We do not sell
those shoddy pianos advertised by some
dealers at $175 and 5000. We value our
reputation too much to swindle our Gus
toners in that way, but have a few odd
makes, such as Weber, Decker, Knabe.
Kranach & Bach, HslIett & Davis and
others which we will close out at cost, as
we need the room for our immense stock of
Everetts. Come and see US before you pur-
chase. ALEX. Ross,

Rev. G. Z. Locke Defines Some OF the Requls
sites Pertaining TO Manhood.
Rev. Charles Edward Locke delivered a
lecture last evening in the Smithfeld Street
Church before large audience, his subject
being 'Every Inch Man." He described
the qualities required to form the ideal man
who should be able to meet the issues of the
next 80 years. That man, Mr.. Locke said,
should be specialist, philanthropist, in
dustrious, radical and learned. 1t mattered
not whether he were white or black. The
speaker said that he was fond of the negro
race. He, believed that it was either great
race degenerated, or great race in embryo.
It would not matter either whether ''the
ideal man" should be a man or a woman.
He believed that women could hold their
places with men in all the advanced work
of the world. The last and highest requi-
site of the ideal man must be, he said, spirit
