QUAY REMEMBERS HIM.
The Senator's Disgust With the New Naval
Officer Explained.

The Senator's Disgust With the New Naval
Onicer Explained.
PHILADELPHIA, October 20.-The ap-
pointment of Captain Walters as Naval
Officer will be bitter pill for Senator Quay
to swallow, aside from the defeat it will
bring with it. Walters is personally objec-
tionsble to Quay because the young man
made the Senator show his hand at criti-
cal stage of the balloting on the day Harri-
son was nominated. Quay pleaded with the
Pennsylvania delegation on Monday morn
ing to stand by Sherman for two ballots
more, as he felt sure New York was weaken
ing in its adhesion to Harrison, and would
swing over to the Ohio Senator.
On the first ballot that day Pennsylvania
cast "a votes for Sherman, gain OF l, and
on the second ballot Senator Quay announced
81 votes for Sherman and 3 for Harrison.
But Captain Walters questioned the accu-
racy of the announcement and demanded a
poll of the delegation, which showed 8
for Harrison. There was a wrangle between
Quay and Walters, the Pennsylvania dele
CATION retired for consultation, and the
effort to show that Sherman was gaining
having miscarried, Quay acknowledged
that the fight was lost, and Pennsylvania
turned in for Harrison.
But the Senator has not forgotten the
young man who questioned his veracity be-
fore the Convention, and the young man did
not let the President remain in ignorance of
the service he rendered.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPAroH.I
WHEELING, October 2O.-A terrible
tragedy was enacted at a point about two
miles from Ellenboro. Ritchie county, about
8 o'clock yesterday morning. Thomas
Dye, prosperous farmer, shot Ed
ward Schofeld in the breast with
musket, q heavy slugs
taking effect, causing instant death. About
two months ago Dye leased piece of
ground to the two Schofeld brothers for the
storage of lumber. Yesterday morning the
Schofelds, having no further use for the
shed, started to tear it down, when they
were commanded to stop by Dye and his
son, who claimed the building as their
property. A quarrel ensued, and Frank
Schofeld struck young Dye on the head
with an iron bolt, inficting slight wound.
This terribly enraged old man Dye, and he
went home, procured his old army musket,
invited friend to see him load it with about
80 slugs, and told several parties he was
going out to kill the Schofelds.
When he reached the location of the shed
the two Schofeld boys were still at work
upon it. He commanded them to stop, and
Edward climbed down off the building, and
ran out on the road, when Dye raised his
gun and shot the defenseless man in the
breast. Death was instantaneous. Dye
was arrested, and is in Jail at Harrisville
Schoield was about 81 years of age, and
like Dye, belongs to somewhat prominent
family.

THE WHITE HOUSE BOOK.
The President keeps scrap collection; at
least one is keptat the White House for him
by the Executive clerks. 1t is in part
blacklist, for in it are recorded the utter
ances of men who criticise the administra-
tion in the public prints, and the stories
about men who are applicants for Office. 1t
has been the custom for many years TO keep
such a scrap-book at the Executive Mansion.
The Navy Department has a scrap col
lection. 1t contains the articles published
at home and abroad about foreign navies
and naval affairs. The system for preserv-
ing these scraps adopted by the Navy De
partment is, l believe the most perfect yet
devised. 1t is combination of scrap book
and card indexed in a compact form. If the
scrap to be preserved is of more than column
width, it is folded once or twice, as may be
necessary, until it is reduced to the width
of the ordinary newspaper column. 1t is
then gummed to card little wider than
the newspaper column and about five inches
in length.
The strip extending beyond the end of the
card is folded in, until the whole clipping
is in a little packet on the lower side Of the
card leaving a narrow margin at the top.
In the blank space, as at the top of the index
card, is written the title of the clipping. 1t
is then cross-indexed on number OF blank
cards to any other subjects of which it may
treat The index cards and the cards which
carry the clippings are then arranged al
phabetically in long boxes. When the col
lection becomes bulky it may be divided
under subject heads, each division having
its own box or boxes. O'BRIEN-BAIN.

PROMOTING HEBREW OPERA.
An Effort Being Made to Keep the Preser

An Effort Being Made to Keep the Present
Company in Pittsburg.
A meeting was held yesterday afternoon
at the Turner'S Hall. Forbes street, by a
number of Hebrews who organized them
selves into dramatic club, which has for
its object the retaining of the Hebrew Opera
Company in Pittsburg. They have been
playing for the past three weeks to these
ancient people in their own language at
this hall. There were about 200 enthusiastic
followers of Moses present, and they proved
their sincerity to the theater project by
taking 60 shares at S. a share. Before the
company, however, will consent to remain
in the city, at least 200 shares must be
taken. The balance is expected to be taken
up before next Sunday, when a final meet
ing will be held. Officers will be
elected to run the concern if the
scheme pans out. The proposed
name for the new club is very characteristic,
''The Pittsburg Oriental Opera Company" :"
The club will have the running of the plays,
and the pieces played will be at their direc-
tion. The company proposes to play two
nights week. The balance of the time
they will perform elsewhere.
If the organization is completed next Sun
day the season will open on the following
Friday by great Hebrew tragedy, entitled
'"Tissaesler." The scene is in Hungary,
and it is delineation of the famous trial of
a Hebrew congregation who were accused of
killing a beautiful maiden, so that her blood
could be utilized for the great Feast of the
Passover. This piece is in nine acts and
takes two nights to play.

ON MANS CREATION.
DR.. Leak Showed That Science and the
Bible Do Not CorHict.

Bible Do Not Conflict.
The NJ. Z. Church, North avenue, ALLIE
gheny, was filled last night by the congre-
cation assembled to hear the opening of a
series of sermons on "Man's Creation" by
the Rev. DR.. Leak, the pastor. The rever-
end preacher, after a minute analysis of the
accepted theory of evolution, advanced the
Bible idea of evolution, and sproceeded to
demonstrate that science is not power
which can be used antagonistically against
the revelation of God as to the worlds
creation, and to mans first entrance thereon.
DIR. Leak continued:
''The divine theory of evolution does not
conflict with the Scriptural statement of
mans creation. If you accept the scientific
reading of evolution you must take it as
based upon the words culled from the in
spired record. God has ssid in the sacred
pages that man is formed in His own image.
This statement has often been questioned,
yet if we but examine it even in a cursory
way, it will be apparent to even the weakest
minds that it is not hyperbole, and that it
can be accepted fully with all its profound
and lofty significance. A child just born
into the world receives part of its parents
nature. 1t has their form of face, and mind.
AS yet it has not their strength, maturity
and intellect, but as the child is capable of
development, so is mans relation to God.

CHRISTIAN SYMMETRY.
Necessity of Completeness of Character
Urged by Rev. MIR. Grose.

Necessity of Completeness of Character
Urged by Rev. MIR. Grose.
Rev. Howard B. Grose, pastor of the
Fourth Avenue Baptist Church, preached
last night to the young people on the "Seven
Elements of Symmetrical Character" from
IL Peter, l., to IL. The address was a
most elegant one. the central thought being
to show that no loophole should be left in
the component parts of the Christian
character through which it may be assailed
or besmirched. The most powerful work to
turn the course of Christianity comes, not
from the efforts of the very wicked or the
deeds of the very bad men, but the incom-
pleteness of good men. We see every day,
men who speak of another as qualified to
fill any position to do great good, but for
one thing. one fault which sets at naught
all his other virtues and qualifications.
He exhorted all presen: to form their
characters with the symmetry, not alone so
desirable, but absolutely necessary to the
completeness of Christian life. To be an
enthusiast in temperance does not excuse
lack of brotherly love and charity, and SO
on through the list. The congregation was
large one, and the discourse throughout
was listened to with the greatest interest.
