SOCIALISM AS A SCIENCE.
Prof. ]. H. Garside Discusses the Question
in an Unique Manner.

Prof. ]. II. Gnrside Discusses the Question
in an Unique Manner.
Socialism as o Science" was the subject
that Prof. j. Hamilton Garside selected for
his address to the members Of the Birming-
ham Turnverein, Jane street, Southside,
last night
The gentleman spoke to good-Sized
audience for over two hours. During his
argument he refuted charges commonly
made against Socialism, stating that the
adherents Of that cause wanted everybody
to be on a footing Of equality. He said
that what they want is "equity and oppor-
tunity." Continuing, he said:
What made Corbin coal king but the op-
portunity Of grasping coal land? What made
Andrew Carnegie millionaire but the oppor-
tunity of oppression? What made General
Alger the largest lumber owner in America
lumber tracts of Michigan? Give us all the
same opportunity and we can all do the same
thing.
am in favor of trusts and I said SO once to
a prominent director of the Standard Oil Com
pany. He, of course, was surprised that /, a
Socialist should harbor such an idea, and he
asked me for my reason. II would like to see
everything one great big trust" said l. II
would like all the railroads, all the telegraphs,
all the industries and everything that could be
governed by combination to be formed into
one great trust, and why? Because it is easier
to chop off the head of one great big trust than
to cut off so many little one"
Mr.. Garside also expressed his disap-
proval Of the system OF interest obtained
from loans, and explained his reason in an
unique manner. He said:
have S. and lend it to this man. say It is
not right to ask him to give me an interest for
the loan of 1t, because. whether have the
money or he has it, the amount is the same, and
if lend it to him he is taking care of the
money for me- If there is question of interest
raised at all, say the man who borrowed the S.
Of me should have it for taking care of my
property.

NEW $4,000 MUSIC HALL.

This IL What the Frohsinn Singing Society
VIII Build on Penn Avenue-A Ladies'
Choir to be Started.
The members of the Frohsinn Singing
Society, who decided at a meeting held last
Sunday week to vacate their present
quarters in the Pittsburg Gas Company's
building by April /, are contemplating the
erection of a new hall on Penn avenue,
which will cost $25,OO0 A committee was
appointed at the last meeting to look around
for q new location. This committee, con-
sisting Of Messrs. Phillip Lange, G. W.
Backofen, Nickolaus Reiber, G. W. Kraus
and j. Bieler, will make its report at a gen.
eral meeting tomorrow night at the hall.
The members of the committee seem to
have found what they want on Penn ave-
nue.. The lot is now occupied by three
story building, and its dimensions are q by
100 feet. So far as the plans for the pro-
posed building can be given the society
proposes to erect in the rear of the present
building a hall 62 feet deep and q feet
wide. The hall will be suitably arranged
with stage for theatrical purposes and
dancing amusements.
One Of the members of the committee gave
a DISPATCH reporter yesterday the follow
ing information regarding the proposed
hall:
"We are going to spend $3.50 on hall
Of our own. 1t is not going to be new
hall, however. The building, which the
committee thinks will suit us, is on Penn
avenue and contains II rooms. The society
has 1S5 members, and while our financial
condition is not exceptionally good, still we
think we can afford the expense. The
members are enthusiastic. When the
scheme became settled fact several of
them came forward, and in Is months $1,000
were subscribed.
'But there is another reason why we are
obliged to change our present quarters. The
'Frohsinn' is thinking OF forming mixed
choir That is weSwill establish a ladies,
class, and will give concerts like the Mozart
Club
"The arrangements for the alterations and
furnishing of the building on Penn avenue
will be made at once, SO that we can take
nOsspssion by nril

AT THE OLD GAME.
An Arrest for Selling Poor Horses Mt Big
Price.

An Arrest for Selling Poor Horses Mt Big
Price.
Assistant Superintendent O'Mara and
Inspector McAleese arrested man named
Lawrence Henderson yesterday afternoon.
His game is alleged to have been to rent q
fine stable near the residence of a wealthy
man and then sell an inferior horse at big
price, claiming that he had to sell it at a
sacrifice He was captured at a stable in
the rear of DR.. Logan's residence No. 40
Penn avenue.
The arrest was the result of a letter, in
closing warrant, from Marshal Frey, of
Baltimore, which stated that he was wanted
in that city on the charge Of obtaining
money under false pretense. The letter
also contained requisition papers signed by
Governor Beaver.
No one had been swindled in this city.
j. A. Harper, hotel keeper of Carlisle,
will lose about $500. Judging from papers
found on his person, Henderson might
easily have been working this game in
Brooklyn, New York, Cleveland, Philadel-
phia and Baltimore,
He will be held in this city until Marshal
Frey arrives from Baltimore.

out. They adjourned to room, where the
conversation continued on the subject of or
ganized labor and the methods employed by
the present officers of the K. of L. Shortly
after 10o'clock Mr.. j. C. Mathews, Master
Workman of L, A. 6S75, announced that he
had seen a telegram from Powderly an
nouncing that be will be here to-day or to-
morrow.
"He is afraid that Barry will destroy the
district" said one of the members of the
order who was present.
II am ready to meet him and prove all
the charges 1 have made. In fact L am
anxious to meet him in public, and hope he
will come" said Mr.. Barry.
There were dozen persons in the party,
and all were members of the knights of
Labor except Mr.. Barry. When this state
ment was made Mr.. Barry said: Il am still
member Of the order, as nv local i'm.
medistely reinstated me when was illegally
expelled by the G. E. B. 1 am still Master
Workman of N. T. A. 154."
When asked if he had heard the report
that an attempt would be made to destroy
the building in Philadelphia for the purpose
of burning up the records Mr.. Barry said:
II have heard the report but 1 do not be-
lieys it is true. They can burn the records
by order of the board at any time, and it is
not necessary to destroy a fine building for
this purpose"
When the excitement around the hall had
subsided, Master Workman Doyle prepared
to retire to his home when a friend asked
him to meet Mr.. Barry. He agreed, and
they were introduced.
A CHILLY RECEPTION.
Mr.. Doyle held out his hand and said:
"How do you do, MIR. Barry? am glad to
see you"
Mr.. Barry looked at him a moment and
said: 'I don't think 1 care to shake hands
with you, Mr.. Doyle"
"All right; 1 just offered you my hand for
pastime" !"
81 hope you enjoyed the fun," was Mr..
Barry's pleasant reply,
You know" said Mr.. Doyle, 'that 1
acted according to the rules of the order,
and you would have done the same, had you
been in my place"
"No, wouldn't" retorted Barry. "If
you come to East Saginaw you can have
every hall in the town if you want to make
a speech, and l will see that you are not
obstructed."
II don't want to make any speeches in
East Saginaw" replied Doyle. II hope
that no harm has been done. Good night,
gentlemen
Good night, Mr.. Doyle" was the
response, and the Master Workman of D.
A. 8, retired.

MAIL BAG ROBBED.
A Thief Cuts Open One Of Uncle Sans

foucne8 at wheeling JunCIons
The Wheeling mail pouch for Pittsburg
was cut open last night, but the postal an.
thorities could not say what was stolen, II
anything, until they could find out what
was put in the bag. The Panhandle express
was behind time, and when the pouch was
pat on the train at Wheeling Junction, the
clerks discovered that it had been ripped
open.
About half dozen letters were torn.
Fortunately it is not a registered pouch.
The postal clerks think the bag was. robbed
at Wheeling Junction, while lying on q
truck, ready to be loaded. No clue to the
perpetratOr Of the act could be found.
Postmaster Larkin and Inspector Caraway
held an inquest on the mangled remains at
the postoffice, and the conclusion arrived at
was the one that first presented itself: That
the mail tampered with had been what is
termed unworked matter, that is, unsorted,
and that the pouch had been cut at Wheel
ing junction and with very sharp knife.
There were less than half dozen letters in
the pouch, directed to Allegheny Citv and
other places, and they had their ends torn
of, and in some cases the envelope and letter
were both torn.
