EAST LIBERTY YOUNG MEN.
The Fifteenth Annual Meeting Of the Chris.
tain Association.

The Fifteenth Annual Meeting Of the Chris.
tain Association.
The fifteenth annual meeting of the East
Liberty branch of the Young Mems Chris
tain Association of Pittsburg, was held last
evening in the East Liberty Presbyterian
Church, corner Penn and Hiland avenues.
A large number were present, and the
spacious and elegant church was almost
filed. Tie Rev. @. V. Wilson conducted
the exercises.
Mr.. Peter Dick read the annual report Of
the association. He said that there had
been no great achievements, but what had
been accomplished was well done. The
present membership numbers 159. This is
small in comparison with other younger as
sociations, but is large in comparison with
the limited facilities. During the year
1903 visits were made to their quarters,
an increase of 250 over the previous year.
The boys branch Of the association was in
creasing and becoming promising feature
of the work.
The Committee on Invitations was COM
mended for its excellent work and the large
number it had brought into the association.
Mention was also made of the credit due
the Entertainment Committee for the six
irst-class entertainments given during the
winter season. Sincere thanks were given
to the churches that had thrown open their
doors to them, to the gentleman who had
given them Liberty Hall free of rent, to
those who had helped them to fit up their
rooms, and to all their friends for their kind
support. Financially the association is
solvent and has surplus. They, however,
need 81 900 more to meet their wants for the
ensuing year.
An address was given by the Rev. De
Witt NJ. Benham. He took for his subject
the words of John, the apostle: '1 have
written unto ye, young men, because ye are
strong" He used this text to show that the
Christian work should be prosecuted by
young men because they are strong. John,
he said, when he laid down the net which
he used to catch men instead of fish, did not
give it to old men to take up in his stead,
but to young men because they were strong.
The Young Mems Christian Association. ne
continued, is doing the work to-day that
John did in those days. binding young
men together by the bonds of fraternity,
friendship and companionship, and putting
the sword in their hands with which to fight
for Christ. He lauded the Young Mems
Christian Association, saying that it has
done glorious work, saved young mems
souls, delivered them from temptation and
danger, and extended its arms to them in
love and companionship.
Mr.. James I. Buchanan made an earnest
appeal for the association. He portrayed
its good work and said that it needed 81 900
to carry it on for the ensuing year. It was
the duty of all Christians to aid it.

Colonel Andrews Tells What He Thinks the
Worlds Fair should Be.
Colonel james Andrews, the well-known
civil engineer, was visited by DISPATCH
reporter yesterday. The reporter was in
search of information about the Worlds
Fpr of '92, and thought that the Colonel
would be good man to question. he ex-
pressed his views as follows:
f'I am in favor of holding the fair at Chi
cago, because it is the most central point
available. New York has had one fair and
Philadelphia another. Let this fair be held
in Chicago, and make it entirely different
from any yet held. The fairs or
exhibitions of the past have not accom-
plished as much as they might have, had
they been better managed. The idea has
been too much to amuse the people and not
instruct them. What good does it do the
public to see machinery? What is wanted
is novelty. Let those who will manage the
fair offer prizes for the newest and most use
full inventions exhibited. Let them classify
and divide and sub-divide the exhibits un-
til one can find just what he wants. This
thing Of mixing the exhibits is q mistake.
In Paris there was a paper making ma
chine throwing out paper by the yard to the
accompaniment of horrible smell from the
rags used. Right at the foot of this machine,
whichwas about2OOf long, Edison display
of fine electrical machinery was on exhibi-
ton. Just think of man wishing to study
electricity and having to stand and listen to
the clatter of the paper-making machine, to
say nothing of smelling the odor."
Colonel Andrews also thought that the
fight between various cities was going to be
injurious to full display from the nations.

MORE MAYORALTY GOSSIP.
Mr.. WnrmcastIe Not So Very Ambiguous
Rumors AhOat.

mr.. Warmcastle Not so very Ambiguous
Rumors AfOat.
1t is beginning to be suspected that certain
people are interpreting the announced can
didacy of Hon. S. d. Warmcastle for the
mayoralty as best happens to suit their indi-
vidual likes and dislikeS, and without much
regard for the accredited and reiterated
facts.
The following from Mr.. Warmcastle
should settle the question. "If," said Mr..
Warmcastle, ''if Mr. Gourley is nominated
will be for him. If, however, it turns out
that Mr.. Gourley is not or cannot be nomi-
mated am candidate. I confess that I
see no need for quibbling over the terms in
which my candidacy is couched. When a
man SAYS that he will accept a nomi-
nation, he should be counted a can
didate, no matter what contingency
may be attached to the matter. 1t is early
in the struggle, several men are avowed can
didates, and 1 have nowhere or at no time
positively stated that 1 am not a candidate
Nor am 1 coquetting or playing fast and
loose with an honor any citizen Of Pittsburg
might be proudLto accept. have right to
take my time In the matter OF seeing what
aspirant develop strength or the opposite"
Manifestly the only inference to be drawn
from Mr.. Warmcastle's latest statement is
thought to be that he has an idea that Mr..
Gourley intends to retire from the contest
prior to the city convention.
1t was stated yesterday in labor circles
that it will not be long before Mr.. Gour-
ley's Marshall township speech of several
years since will be sprung with view of
arraying the labor element against him.
The late Thomas A Armstrong, it will be
remembered, claimed in his paper, the
Labor Tribune, that Mr.. Gourley publicly
stated on that occasion that 81 per diem was
sufficient for a workingman, or words to
that effect. 1t is evident, from the rumors
in circulation, that this mayoralty fight
will be full OF novel and startling features.

OH, TO BE A LADY'S MAN.
A CrestfaIIen Dude Ignored by an Alabama

A CrestfaIIen Dude Ignored by an Alabama
Maiden-A Stray Note.
He boarded a Valley train yesterday at
Oil City. He was very nice, yet somehow
the peasantry who had taken seats in the
car which be entered failed to recognize
him until he had taken possession of two
seats, where he made his silk-lined over
coat comfortable in one and his feet in the
other. Now dainty little woman entered
with several companions, who had come to
the train with her to wish her safe and
pleasant journey to her home in Mobile,
Ala. The swell took in the situation, and
comprehended that the lady was about to
start upon long Journey unattended.
Assist me all ye little gods,
That patrOniZe our clan;
I'll win this maid, I'll wager odds,
Pm Just the one that can.
The train starts, and he is separated from
the lady only by the width of the aisle. He
coughs, Just the slightest little cough. He
pats the floor with his shoe heel, then rattles
the window and paper he pretends to read.
The passengers are looking their sympathy
for him, the miles are rapidly dropping be-
hind, and she has failed to discover that he
is on the train. She speaks to friend in
the seat in front, and then looks out of the
window, away off in the direction of A la
bama. The hero now gets desperate; he
turns his seat SO that he can look into her
face; still she gives no sign that she has
seen him. 1t is a circus to the other occu-
pants of the car, and he finally realizes that
they are laughing at him. He settles down
into his seat, and seems to be making fig
ures upon the margin of the newspaper.
The brakeman calls out Foxburg, and the
discounted knight makes a rush, but in
putting on his overcoat he manages to drop
the paper on the lady's seat. 1t is picked
up bv the brakeman, and around the margin
was written the following:
The writer is very favorably impressed and
if agreeable. would like to become acquainted;
intend making Southern trip this winter, and
if agreeable. would be pleased to call on you.
II further acquaintance is desired, be kind
enough to forward your address to ]. E. NJ,
Lock Box 147, jamestown, N Y.
P. S.-f you think the writer too bold,
please pass all errors and think no more of this
or, if married, please excuse an ignorant ad-
mirer.
He is now flirting with the maids of
Butler county and is headed this way. He
can be identified by bright red mark on
back left-hand corner of his neck.

CROSSING THE CABLES.
The Wylie Avenue Rope Will Run Under
the Fifth Avenue Cable.

the Fifth Avenue Gable.
The Central Traction Company laid its
cross-over frogs at the corner of Grant street
and Fifth avenue yesterday. Despite the
inclement weather a large crowd gathered
about the workmen watching their move
ments. Thousands stopped and asked the
question, "How will one cable cross the
other ?"
This will be done as follows: Where the
Central line crosses the Fifth avenue tracks
a semi-vault, on the same principle as those
in frontofthe power houses, has been orwill be
constructed. When the Wylie avenue cars
come up to the end Of the vault or about
ten feet from the Fifth avenue cable, the
grip will be released. The latter is then
carried off to one side, and the momentum
of the car runs it across the street. Then
the gripman will again catch hold of the
rope.
The Wylie avenue cable will run under
that of the Fifth avenue line. A DETECTION
wheel will keep the grips Of one line from
striking the cable of the other. The Fifth
avenue gripmen will not have to release
their grip while crossing the other tracks.
The cross-over at Wood street will probably
be put in next Sunday, and the Central line
will then be built. Work on the power
house is progressing slowly, and the cars, it
is said. win not be running until February
] or 10.

HEALTH OFFICERS AT WORK.
Putting che City in Good Sanitary Condition
for the Winter-A Hospital for Eryslpe.
Ias Patients Needed.

Putting she City in Good Sanitary Condition
for the winter-A Hospital for Eryslpe.
Ias Patients Needed.
Superintendent Thomas W. Baker, of the
Bureau of Health, is taking active measures
to put the city in good sanitary condition
for the winter. For the past week he has
had't inspectors of his department exam
ing the back yards and courts all over the
city. Where dirt and rubbish are found the
Ieaseholder is compelled to remove them.
The idea is to get the city clean before snow
flies and turns the accumulations of the
summer into filthy slush. So far the general
condition of the town has been found better
than was anticipated.
In speaking of the health of the city yes-
terday Superintendent Baker said: "There
are two things that require Immediate at
tention if the city's health is to be guarded.
The first is sewer regulations. There should
be law compelling owners of property on
streets which are severed to make house
connections with the sewer. This connection
should carry off the waste water and drain
the vaults into the sewer, so that no slops
could be run into the streets to endanger the
health of the community. Attempts have
been made to get law of this kind passed,
but they have failed. This winter it will
be tried again, and the city has grown so
and this evil has assumed such great pro-
portions, that 10 not think Councils will
refuse to protect the people.
''The other matter to which I re-
ferred is entirely different. There
is not in all Pittsburg a hospital where
person suffering with erysipelas can be
cared for. We can't take them at the pest
house, for we have no accomm odations for
them. None of the hospitals will admit
them because they are dangerous to the
other patients. I think that if any of our
hospitals take this up they will gain by it.
A separate ward would be necessary, and 1
am confident that any hospital which asks
the next Legislature TOR $1,000 or $40, 900 to
build ward for this disease will get the
money, and in addition will have advanced
a big argument in favor of receiving the
other appropriation it will want"
