facility as if living in the city, makes 1t q

the purest mountain spring water, whose
health-giving and curative properties are
widely known.
Rates range from IS to S25 per week, &C
cording to location of room or cottage.

Miss Killikelly provided means to gratlfy the

In short, Miss Killikelly's first volumeshas

The new volume contains answers to over 100

Very Pleasant Evening.

The grounds Of ]. L. Miller, on Observatory
Hul were beautifully lighted up by Japanese
lanterns on Friday evening, and the members
of Post 1872 and their friends assembled there
to listen to lecture by Prof. Brashear and
participate in the festivities Of the evening.
The learned professor discoursed on the moon.
and the veterans learned all about the pale.
faced Luna Prof. Brashear had telescope
there to bring the subject Of the lecture and
the adjacent stellar regions closer to the in
vestigating optic of the interested veteran.
Dancing was an enjoyable feature of the
evening, and refreshments were served BY the
fair ladies of the 6. A. R. Commander
Burchfield. in his usual pleasant manner, did
all he could to make the evening pleasant one
for all present, and success met his efforts, as 1t
always does. A number of well-known Grand
Army men were present from other posts.
Comrade Jarboe was much affected upon dis
covering that the moon had no moisture about
it, and retired to distant part Of the grounds
to seek consolation in q glass OF lemonade.
Comrade Armor is said to have whispered to a
comrade, after thoughtful observation OF the
moon through the telescope. that he old not
think it was made of green cheese at all as he
had been told ComTade w. 7. Bradberry is
also said to have looked at the moon through
the telescope for that man he has heard 80
much about, but it is believed he came to the
conclusion that the lesser light is not inhab-
tied. Comrade ]. l. Miller and Prof. Brashear
received the sincere thanks of the post.

GET QUIT
PrTrsBURG WILL BE DANGEROUS
PLACE TO LIVE THIS SUMMER.


A Physicians Views ON the Subject.
IT have been Pittsbureer, man and boy,
for 90 odd years, but I never saw things so
ripe for an epidemic of typhoid fever, ,dysen-
terry, cholera morbus and a host of other dis
eases of the alimentary canal and general
system. The water we now have, and will
have all summer, is, know from my own
analysis, sufficient to cause q pestilence of
the most terrible description. Besides this,
for one purpose or another. the streets are
being torn up, excayating for building go
ing on, everywhere laying bare that stratum
of gravel which for century has been used
as sewer and drain. 1 would advise every
one who can do so to get out Of the city for
the summer"
The foregoing are the remarks of one of
the Oldest physicians in the city, who de-
clined to give his name for publication.
No one doubts the soundness of the medi-
cal mans advice; but the question arises:
Where can the Pittsburg business man
60, and get, for himself and his family, ali
the advantages of the country, and still not
neglect his business?'
There is but one place, viz: Idlewood
Hotel and cottages.

What makes this drama SO popular and long

The reply is because it possesses more scenic

Australia and America, and when it comes
back to Pittsburg again after several years
absence it is as realistic and mystifying as be-
fore, as is the panorama scene, the revolving

lar mechanical devices. ]. II. Huntley will ap-
pear as Harry EltiSton, and the critics say he
