The proprietors of the Illustrated Ne1cs pre-
sented to Champion John L. Sullivan Saturday
the $4,000 which they had contributed TO the
$4,000 stakes put up for Sullivan in his fight

better for her to have retired before she set
foot on the boards.
Some of her chivalrous, but indiscreet,
friends say that Mrs. Langtry is about to
leave the stage because she is tired of being
talked about. This is substantial reason,
for truly very few actresses have been able
to carry about with them such an umbrage-
Gus cloud of gossip as has surrounded Mrs.
Langtry wherever she has wandered. If she
is tired of being gossiped about, we trust
she is likewise tired of providing food for
the scandalmongers. The public is very
tired of the whole Langtry business, from
her inability to act to her squabbles with
unpaid tradesmen and cooks. Therefore,
should she determine to forsake the American
stage, her alleged desire for aquiet, unnoticed
life and the public's hopes for day which
shall not offer amateur society beauties in
the guise of actresses will both in varying
measure be gratifed.
But, as we have ventured to say before,
we deem it the suggestion of too sanguine
lover OF the real stage which bids us look
for Mrs. Langtry's retirement to-day or to-
morrow. The notoriety for which she now
affects disgust has proven a gold mine to
her. And such notoriety as Mrs. Langtry's
will last several years yet as money
making medium.

THE FESTIVALS ATTRACTIONS.

The eenjoymentofsucha musical eventas the
May Festival is not confined to the scholarly
masters of music, nor even to the lovers of
the divine art, who adore where they do not
always understand. As far as the music is
concerned there are many who will sit
through every concert of this mighty series
and vet never for moment obtain from the
rendering of masterpieces by renowned art
lists that acute pleasure which simple bal
lad sung to the accompaniment of an aged
piano brought to them in the shadow of the
parlor at home But should they stay away
because the musicians and the singers oc-
cupy higher plane than their tastes COM
mand? No; for several reasons.
For instance, when four or five thousand
interesting human beings gather together
in one place there is always grateful field
there for the student of human nature to
survey. If man does not care fig for
Wagner, he may be an intense admirer of q
pretty girl. There are many of Allegheny
county's famous beauties to be seen among
the celebrants of the Festival. Or again a
woman may not value achorus from Haydn's
Creation" more than solitary hair pin.
and yet burn with an absorbing desire to
compare her new Partisan hat with the head
gear of her friends and enemies.
There are all sorts of ways of getting ones
moneys worth out Of popular concert. The
audience is not down upon the programme,
but its performances, individually and col
lectively, are often fully as remarkable as
those of the musicians and vocalists.

THE famous Blind Tom will make his last an.
pearance in Pittsburg at the Bijou Theater to.

remain as usual.
THE Gray and Stephens Company, with their

ance and for the remainder of the week.
WILLARD SPENsER's beautiful comic opera,
"The Little Tycoon" will be presented at the
Grand Opera House next week. Although
this opera has been before the public for nearly
five years it has lost none of its popularity. The
present season has been one of the most sue
cessful since the opera was first produced. Its
bright and tuneful airs are something of which
theater-goers never tire; they are perennially
fresh and pleasing. This will doubtless be the
last opera produced here this season. The sale
of seats begins to-day.

POINTS OF RESEMBLANCE.

Some of the features Of the contest which
is going on for the control of the Oregon
and TranscOntinental R. r. present points
of peculiar public interest. Besides the
fact that the attempt to solve the problem
involved in study of the leases,
guarantees and stock ownership COM
prised in the Oregon and Transconti-
mental, Oregon Short Line, Oregon
Railway and Navigation, Union Pacific
and Northern Pacific railroad companies
would afford a grateful variety upon the
popular struggle with the "pigs in clover, I"
the contest presents some peculiar resem-
blances to the ordinary political contest.
The advertisements of the Willard party
invited stockholders to send their proxies to
that interest, in order to establish policy
in the interests of harmony with the Union
Pacific and Northern Pacific lines and for
the removal of the difficulties which have
heretofore hampered that corporation. The
advertisement of the Smith party invited
the stockholders also to send their taxes to
the other interests, for the sake of removing
the difficulties that have heretofore ham,
pered the corporation and in the interests of
harmony with the Union and Northern Pa
cifc lines. These may not be exactly ver-
batim copies of the advertisement, but
they set forth the fact that each party
claims to be the party of harmony
and prosperity for the corporation.
This presents a striking resemblance to
the political candidate and platform which
tell the public that the party making them
is the true party for the prosperity Of the
country. AS in politics, the fact that both
parties promise the same thing, does not
suggest that they should unite their forces
upon the same platform. Each wants to
get hold of the offices, and in order to do so,
promises are cheap. The further fact
that something like $24 per share above the
market price was paid for stock in order to
secure votes at the coming election, presents
another resemblance to some of the shady
practices of politics.
If such parallels continue they will give
pertinence to the inquiry whether the
practices of politics do more to demoralize
corporations, or the corporations do more to
demoralize the practices of politics.

THE PARIS EXPOSITION.

The statement is going the rounds that the
success of the Paris Exposition has led to
the discussion of the project of reopening it
next year. 1t looks possible that this might
be case of shouting before the shouter has
gotoutof the woods. twill be better time to
predicate the success ofthis Exposition when
it is ended, than within the first week of its
opening. At present it remains to be seen
what measure of success is to be gained If
it scores success the encouragement would
be decidedly in favor, not only ofrepeating it
next year, but of making it a permanent
Exposition. Philadelphia's attempt in the
way of permanent exhibition did not sue
ceed very well, but Paris could put per-
manent exhibition on different basis and
command elements of success that the
Quaker City could not.

NEW RAILROAD PROJECTS.

The reports Of new railroad lines which
are to reach -Pittsburg from the Northwest,
and furnish new outlet for the Western
Pennsylvania coal fields, and new route
from Pittsburg to New York, show that the
fate of the South Penn project does not deter
the builders of lines on paper from pushing
their profession. THE DISPATCH, while
the South Penn project was still among the
possibilities, pointed out that lines connect
ing both the Lehigh Valley and Beach
Creek roads with Pittsburg were practi-
cable. How much real capital there is in
the new schemes may be left for the future
to determine. In the commercial interests
of Pittsburg of course a new line is de-
sirable; but the construction of one road
would be especially to be hoped for, as q
demonstration of the fact that the CONNER
cial and industrial interests can build rail-
roads without tine consent of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad.

TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
PITTsBURG. THURSDAY, MAY %, 1889.
NOMINATIONS WITHOUT CONTEST.

After the hot struggle for the prestige of
leadership, the Republican Convention yes
terday got at its task of nominating can
didates, and found it so easy and harmoni.
GUS that there was practically no formal op-
position to any of the candidates. Judge
Collier had the pleasant fortune which has
latterly attended nearly all the Allegheny
county judges who have come up for renom-
ination. His experience, his ability as
jurist and the gentle, kindly temper which
alike on and off the bench has for many
years endeared the Judge to all classes of
citizens, without regard to party distinc-
tion, gave of course the fullest war
rants for the compliment of acclamation.
The nomination of Arch. H. Rowand for
District Attorney was also without opposi-
tion, because in managing and pushing his
canvass he seemed to have entirely distanced
his recent competitors. But Mr.. Rowand is
without doubt too astute political observer
not to be aware that in the event Of the
Democrats taking up popular and active
man he may still have considerable work to
do in the campaign. His military record
and his personal force and earnestness, to-
gether with his heavy party majority in the
county, are factors favoring his prospects.
The litigation growing out of his term as
Clerk of the Courts and the disposition of
the bar and of the public not to follow party
lines strictly where the administration of
the courts is concerned make it nevertheless
possible that he may have very active
contest before him.
Coroner Mcdowell also had the compile
ment of a unanimous call. OF late years
the COroner's Office has been run without the
causes for complaint which distinguished it
in by-gone days. The present incumbent
seems to be fairly entitled to the considera-
tion accorded him in again placing his
name on the ticket.

TICKET BROKERS TOGETHER.
They Assert That They Have Been Subject

10 Unjust Persecution.
NEW YORK, May q The Ticket Brokers
Association met in this city to-day. President
McCrary called the convention to order at !
o'clock this afternoon and read his annual ad-
dress. He called attention to the fact that the
great railroad corporations had been for the
past few months endeavoring to have the busi-
ness of the members of the association branded
as illegitimate. These magnates, he said, had
by every means ih their power tried to have
laws passed by the different Legislatures de-
claring the business illegal, but they signally
failed. He hoped that the members Of the as
socIation would stick together and assert::their
rights as American citizens. The small rail-
roads, he said, principally depended on the
ticket brokers for sustenance, and that was the
reason why the large railroads wished to de-
stroy the business of the brokers.
The re port of the Executive Committee
dealt mainly with what was termed the perse-
cution to which members of the association
were subjected to during the past year. The
following are extracts from the report: ut is
almost impossible to realize the, enormous
amount of persecution the association has sue
cessfully withstood. Prosecuted openly and in
monopolies in the halls of Legislatures, through
speech in ANONYMOUS screeds, in word and in
action, our occupation has been maligned,
scandalized and misrepresented-charge with
conspiracy, with crime, with fraud and with all
that Is evil. But the public has been our ally,
and truth and honest dealing our only weapons,
and we stand to-day victors upon hard fought
fields

p1rrsBuRG INTERESTS AT HELENA.

Mr.. John Thompson, a former well-known
resident of Pittsburg, but for some years
settled at Helena, Mont, was in the city
yesterday seeing some old friends. Mr..
Thompson gives graphic account of the
rise of Helena, which appears to be en-
dowed with great business movement
lately. Helena is in the center of the
mining district, and distributing point for
supplies. It has had lively real estate
experience, the demand, Mr.. Thompson
states, for places of business being such as
to yield 15 per cent returns. Some Pitts
burgers have lately been making invest
ments in that quarter, and the principal
business block is called 'The Pittsburg
Block" Major Walker, a wellknown
Pennsylvania. brother-in-law to james G..
Blaine, is Paymaster at Helena, and it is
there Russell B. Harrison, the Presidents
son, has put down his stakes.

A Distinguished Party Present at the Annual
Graduating Exercises.
Special Telegram to The Dispatch.
CARLISLE, May 22--The tenth anniversary
and graduating exercises of the Indian Indus.
trial School took place to-day. A varied and
attractive programme had been prepared. The
morning exercises were highly interesting
They comprised inspections of the class rooms
and workshops, followed by gymnasium and
parade drill. A special train from Washington
arrived here with a party consisting of the
Hon. John W. Noble, Secretary of the Interior,
and wife; Hon. Joseph K. McCommon, late As
ssistant Attorney General for the Interior De-
partment, and wife; A. f. Smithley, of the Board
of Indian Commissioners, with his wife; Gen.
eral Elisha Whittlesev, Secretary of the Board;
the wife and granddaughter of Associate JUS
tice S. +. Miller of the Supreme Court; and
Messrs. Stevins, Gehr and Phillips, of the In
terror Department. The other prominent
guests included Senator A. H. Colquitt, of
Georgia, and Rev. DR.. ]. A. McConley, Of Bal.
timore, late President of Dickinson College;
Governor Beaver and Colonel Fuller.
The programme was an interesting one. The
presentation of diplomas took place this even
ing, and were made by Hon. John Noble, Sec
retary of the Interior. There are now 607
pupils connected with the school, over 500 of
whom were present to-day. Captain Pratt is
one of the pioneers of this new idea which is
that the Indian children must be brought away
from the influence of tribal surroundings and
placed and educated in the midst of civiiZa-
ton. This certainly was great day among
the Indians.

How Senator Quay stands at the White
II ouse and whether Ford or Mexican is to
get the Pittsburg postofice are evidently
questions upon which the Washington cor
respondents consider themselves privileged
to entertain the widest latitude Of opinion.
AT last reports there were symptoms that
Congressman Dalzell might have the call.
This would probably be not wholly un-
accounted for by the results of the primaries.
But Larkin, P. NJ, is doing pretty well,
and the community will calmly await
official advices.

Special Telegram to The Dispatch.
YORK, May @-The Grand Lodge Of Inde-
pendent Order of Odd Fellows Of Pennsyl-
vania finished its second days work in this
city to-day. The report of the Finance Com
mittee was adopted. The important business
of the morning was counting the votes for the
election Of the Grand Warden. The result was
as follows: Edgar Marsh, 3096 votes; John A.
Wunch, 306l votes; Marsh's majority. IS.
Grand Warden-elect Marsh is citizen of
Cory. a lawyer by profession, and has been
Mayor and Solicitor for his city. The Grand
Lodge accepted the invitation of the Phila-
delphia Anniversary Association to attend
their celebration on June Is.
The question of admitting to membership in
lodges at the age of Is years instead of q years.
as at present will be decided by the Grand
Lodge. 1t is believed that the action Of the
Grand EncAmpment of Monday will lead to its
defeat by heavy majority. A motion to ap-
point an additional assistant secretary for the
order was voted down. Appeals from different
parts of the State were then taken up Tor con-
sideration and properly disposed of W. II.
Cogswell, heading o degree delegation Of 10
members from Philadelphia, exemplifed the
unwritten work Of the order this evening.

IT is not surprising that the race for the
vacant Russian mission is close one, be-
tween Colonel Elliott F. Shepard, of the
New York Mail and E1press, and General
Felix Agnus, of the Baltimore american.
General Agnus seems to have obtained a
slight lead on the banqueting question;
but Colonel Shepard's professionally religi-
GUS character is strong point which may
tell at the finish. 1t would be decided
feather in the cap of the United States to
send Minister to Russia who could stop
the Cars Sunday reviews.
