Business Delayed.
A great contrast was noticed in the ap-
pearance Of the down town streets last even
ing. On Christmas night there was not an
avenue in the town part of the city that was
not covered with people promenading. The
majority of the men wore light overcoats
and the ladies were arrayed in their light
wraps. The weather was mild and put one
in mind of summer evening.
Last night-what changel There were
comparatively few people on the streets.
Those who were, were scurrying along with
their garments drawn closely around them
to keep warm. The wind blew and whistIed
through the telegraph wires, suggestive Of q
blizzard and gave many of the hurrying pc
destrians chills, as they thought of the heavy
winter underclothing they did not buy.
A juvenile blizzard struck the city yes-
terday forenoon but did no damage, There
was terrific wind and thunder storm East
and South, that blew down the telegraph
lines. The Postal Company was badly
crippled and had to turn over all their busi-
ness to the Western Union. The latter sent
all through messages via Buffalo. The de-
lay did not exceed several hours.
A DISPATCH reporter paid another visit
to the weather shop in the Schmidt build
ing yesterday for the purpose of ascertain
ing whether blizzard had struck the town
and if possible find out why Jack Frost has
forsaken us. 1t was learned that the cold
wave flag had been put up the night before,
but the weather would be quite warm to-day.
The maximum temperature for the day was
81 degrees. This was between and 9
o'clock in the forenoon. At o'clock the
thermometer had fallen to 81 degrees and
continued on its downward course until
midnight.
The highest velocity attained by the wind
was "a miles per hour. This was at $40 A.
M. The highest wind ever known in this
city since 1871 was 40 miles per hour. The
cause of the storm was an unusual fall in
the barometer. followed by sudden rise.
The storm was northward and across the
lakes, through Virginia, Indiana and Wis
eonsin. The indications last hight were
that it would be freezing at an early hour
this morning. After that it would get warm
again.

THE OLDEST MAN DEAD.
Alexander TndIe Expired ut His Home Ar.
ter Three Days IIInesG


ter Three Days IIInesA
Alexander Tindle, one of the oldest resi-
dents of this city, died yesterday afternoon
at his home on kirkpatrick avenue, Allie
gheny.
Mr.. Tindle was one of the pioneers Of
Pittsburg. He came across the mountains in
a Conestoga wagon when a child from Will
mington, Del, where he was born. His pa
rents located on Liberty street, near where
the old Black Bear tavern stood, at the foot
of Fifth avenue. He learned the trade of
saddlery and harness maker, and opened a
shop near his home. He continued in bust
ness until 1870, when he retired. He after
ward engaged in the tannery business with
James D. Gallery, and was one of the incor-
porators of the Dollar Savings Bank.
Mr.. Tindle was probably the Oldest Mason
in the State. He was charter member of
St. Johns Lodge No. 219, F. & A. NJ, and
opened the first Masonic hall in the city.
At the dedication of the new building last
June, he was asked to open the hall, but his
physical condition prevented him from tax
ing such part. He was also Royal Arch
Mason.
Mr.. TIndle's father went out during the
war of 1872, and was never heard of again.
The deceased leaves three daughters, one of
whom is Mrs Alex. Jones, of Aliquippa,
and the other two are single. He also
leaves five sons-Alex., Jr., Herbert,
Albert Allan and George. DR.. Tindle, the
weli-known physician of Penn avenue, is
nephew. The cause Of mis- death is said to
have been cold contracted last Monday.

THE NEW LIST OF EXTRAS.

The Two Iron Associations to Confer on the
Subject.
The american Manufacturer says:
The Eastern Bar Iron Association, at its re-
cent meeting, appointed committee to confer
with the Western Iron Association regarding a
new list Of extras.
There is the most urgent need for some ac-
tion in this direction. The present list is both
absurd and useless. 1t is not lived up to- 1t is
not sold by. 1t is cut without the least COM
Function, So absurd and useless has it become
that individual concerns have and are Sc
riously considering the advisability of issuing
a card of their own.
Now, the question is, can the Eastern and
Western manufacturers reach an agreement I
If not, then one association or the other should
take the initiative and do away with the pres
ent senseless and useless card.

time enough to say "rll tell you right
now that if the terminus of the former canal
had been at Pittsburg instead of Rochester,
it would have been in operation to-day; but
in those days we did not have dams on the
Ohio, and time and time again 1 have seen
canal boats lie for weeks at Rochester
waiting for a rise, and when there was no
hope Of such boon they would Unload on
the docks at Rochester and start back empty
to Erie for another load. That was what
killed the old canal but now we have a
remedy for this.

Judge Jacob f. Slagle said last evening
that be had not given much attention to the
problem for solution at the workhouse, be-
cause he knew that he would be unable to
accompany the Prison Board on its visit.
He is now holding Criminal Court, and
cannot leave the Porter trial at present
claiming his attention. The Judge said
that the board felt that something should be
done to give work to the idle prisoners, buthe
was not aware that any particular plan had
been suggested. 1t might be possible that
the men would be put to work on the high
WAYS. He did not know the views of the
other members Of the board. They intend
to visit the workhouse to ascertain the facts
of the situation, and after that will attempt
to devise some new scheme of employment.
o'1ARA is AGAINST IT.
Assistant Superintendent Roger O'Mara,
Aof the Police Bureau, said that the scheme
proposed was rather defective in two or three
respects.
