Detective CouIson Interrupts a Game of
Sunday Poker Playing.
Detective Sol Coulson last night located
gambling resort for colored men at No. 10
Old avenue. 1t was next door to the News
boys Home. The room occupied was in the
attic of brick house, and there were front
and rear entrances. The front of the build
ing was locked, but Coulson and half a
dozen other officers found their way to the
open rear door. They went through the
cellar and up rear back stairway. Seven
colored men sat around poker table, with
chips piled before them. The cards had
just been dealt and the players were chip
ping in for the draw, when o fat fellow who
sat opposite the door looked over the top of
his three kings and yelled, "Jehoshapha.,
there's Sol Coulson"
''Sit still, boys" Mr.. Coulson said, as he
walked in. The players were allowed to
cash their chips, and the banker paid out
about $3.50. 1t was blooded game, nearly
all the players being known to the police as
professional gamblers The table, cards
and chips were confscated and the men
taken TO the station. Clayton st. Clair was
booked as the keeper of the gambling house.
He and Tom White, an old-time gambler,
were refused bail, and tie other men were

HELPING POOR HEBREWS.
Lovers of Zion Organize Wenlthy Branch
of the Society.

Of the Society.
A meeting of the 'Lovers of Zion" was
held last night in the Grant Street Syna-
gogue to lay before that congregation the
object which number of influential He
brews have at heart in this country and in
Europe. which is to render aid to poor
members of that ancient faith to return to
the land from whence their forefathers wan
dered
After the meeting was over branch of
the society was formed, with Mr.. Morris
Rosenthal President pro TEN. Mr.. Korn-
blum was to have addressed the meeting,
but hewas unavoidably absent He, how
ever, sent a letter, which was read. He
expressed entire approval of the object of
the society. He said he would render what
ever aid he could to forward the desires Of
the society.
Rabbi S. Sivatz, said: SIT is not for any
selfish or penurious reasons that this society
was organized. 1t is to lift the poor and
needy Hebrew from poverty into better
and purer sphere. To send them from this and
other lands, back to Palestine, where they
will be able to embark in enterprises not
open to them here. It is also the object of
the society to have the land of old Jeru-
salem, SO fertile and productive, farmed by
those who have right to it. That we will
ultimately gain the object we have in view,
no one doubts. Leading European bankers,
merchants, and philanthropists are giving
us material aid. There will be another
meeting after vespers next Sunday.

ENDLESS PUNISHMENT.

Rev. W. S. Williams Vigorously Combats the
Orthodox Idea of He'll.
Rev. W. S. Williams last evening
preached to the congregation of Christ Uni
versalist Church on Hell" He main
tanned that none of the Hebrew and Greek
words translated "hell" in the authorized
version, convey in the original language
any idea of endlessness or eternity. Sheol
is used "a times, Hades IL times, Gehenna
ten times, and Tartarus once Sheol in the
Hebrew and Hades in the Greek means, he
said, the grave or the world of the dead,
without distinction as to the moral condition
of those who 60 there. The Hebrews never
believed in endless punishment, and half of
the same people did not believe in any
future life at all.
"Until less than 1000 years ago." said
the preacher, "endless punishment for the
wicked was not believed by any of the races
of men. To think that before that, for
thousands and thousands of years, God had
never intimated such thing to the human
racei To think that God would be so care
less of his children when such an awful,
awful doom was awaiting nearly all of
them"
Gehenna was the word used by Jesus,
and meant the Valley of Hinnom, near
Jerusalem, where the offal and garbage of
the city were cast and burned. It;conveyed
no idea of eternality. Rev. Mr.. Williams
said: 81 challenge the world, with un-
prejudiced mind, to show, by scholarship
and investigation, any word between the two
lids of the Bible that, by any force, plain or
on the surface, or in the use of the term,
teaches any such dictrine as endoess punish.

A Branch Of the Natiopai Cadets Organized
In Pitfsburg-TrniniBg the Youth 10
Make Good Soldiers.
A branch of the National Cadets, Com
pany A, Second, of the United States. has
just been formed in Pittsburg. The com
pany is two weeks old, and has an enlist
ment of 20 young soldiers, sufficient to form
one company. The first meeting for drill
practice will take place next Thursday even
ing in the Old City Hall Armory. which
has been placed at their disposal by the
Washington Infantry. It is expected, how
ever, that the Franklin school house will be
set apart two evenings of the week for the
military training of the boys.
The National Cadets, though new in
Pittsburg, is well and favorably known in
eastern parts of the country. New York
had the honor of forming the first company.
Lieutenant Hamilton, of Governors Island,
conceived the idea of organizing the Cadets
about two years ago and got together about
180 boys, whose ages ranged from IA to 20.
These boys composed regiment. including
cavalry, infantry and artillery, go members
making up each of the divisions. The idea
proved a success and now the Cadets num-
Der upward of $4,000 members scattered
over the country. The majority of them
are located in the East.

EVERETT PIANO CLUB,

Or Co-0perntive System of Selling Pianos.
Is the most successful and satisfactory plan
ever tried. We are delivering pianos as fast
as our wagons can haul them. Our mem-
bers get the lowest possible price, because
there are enough members to contract for
$50 pianos, and thus save S75 in the price of
each piano; $50 members, each paying 81
per week, will pay for one piano in cash
each week, and we deliver one piano per
week on these payments. Members who
pay all cash, or who pay S25 cash and $40
monthly can take their pianos at once, and
still get the discount obtained by the club
contract The piano selected BY the club
has no superior. Having the whole market
to choose from on so large contract, we
chose the Everett because it gives full value,
dollar for dollar. We pay nothing for rep
utations of men who died years ago. The
Everett is piano of to-day, with all the
latest improvements. The tone is rich,
powerful and musical, and they are made to
wear. Each piano is warranted for seven
years. Now don't wait too long. Our club
is not yet full, but we are delivering pianos,
and it is filling up rapidly. Send for cir
cular or call and see the pianos at once.

NEW COSTLY CHAPEL.
Father Mollinger, of Troy Hill, to
Improve bis Sacred Edifice.
A $4,000 BUILDING GOING UP.
II is Claimed it Will Rival Anything Seen
in this Country.
RARE EUROPEAN STONES AND RELICS

Rev. Father Mollinger, pastor of the
Church of the Most Holy Name, on Troy
Hill. Allegheny, has begun work on an ad.
dition to the old chapel adjoining his house
on the hill. The new building will cost
$50, 900. A number of residents of the hill
claim that it will be the finest and most
magnificent church structure in this part Of
the country, if not in the United States.
The foundation of the new addition has
Just been laid. The new struature will be
10 feet long and 48 feet wide. An idea OF
what it will be like may be learned by
comparing the cost to 70-foot building.
The front of the building will be of fine
cut stone, with two towers or spires, each
100 feet high. A statue of st. Anthony
eight feet high and made of gilded bronze,
will surmount the gable in the front of the
church.
oRNAMENTED WITH FIGURES.
The new addition will contain IA small
chapels or large inches in the walls contain
ing the Fourteen Stations of the Gross. The
figures will be life-sized. Seven of them
will ornament each side of the sacred
edifce The figures will be made in
Belgium.
The chapel, will also contain 18 stained
Munich. Two bronze altars costing $1,000
each will also be placed in the church.
The altars will be made in France and will
contain number OF precious, sacred relics,
which are expected to arrive from Europe.
On the side of the building will be erected
a little sacristy.
When Joined to the old building the
chapel viii be 120 feet long. The present
structure will be transformed into a
sanctuary for the new building. An effort
will be made to have the chapel ready for
dedication on the feast day of st. Anthony,
June Is next So much has been written
about the present, and as it is so well
known that it is needless to say anything
about it now.
CAN'T ANSWER THE LETTERS.
Father Mollinger is daily in receipt of
dozens of letters coming from all parts of
the world asking for information about his
wonderful cures. He now has at his home
baskets full of them, and finds it physical
impossibility to read, let alone answer
them. Last week he received one from
man in Cuba. The letter contained four
crosses which the writer asked Father Mol
linger to bless. This he did and sent them
back. Some people write to him and upon
not receiving any answer send abusive let
ters.
Father Mollinger is always ready to
answer any questions or hear invalids' COM
plants when they call upon him, but he
cannot find time to answer the letters. If
the writers call upon him they will get all
the help he can give them, which cannot go
to them through the mails. He has become
so used to getting all kinds of ridiculous
letters that he takes no notice of any but
business or private communications.

OIL STILLS BURNED.

Unused Property ofrhe Citizens Oil Refinery
Co. Burned.
At $40 o'clock last evening fire broke
out in the Citizens Oil Refinery, on Butler
street. near the Sharpsburg bridge. The
Standard Oil Company owns the property
which was burned, consisting ia large
number of old sheds, under which are sew
eral parafne stills. None of the stills have
been worked for long time, though there
was considerable material in some of them.
Engines No. 6 and 9 were kept at the fire
until 10 o'clock to prevent any possibility
of the fire spreading to a large oil tank con-
tanning 5000 barrels of oil, which was near.
The loss to the sheds and a small brick
office occupied by the company will amount
to $1,000, covered by insurance. Chief
Coates stated that he believed the fire to
have been incendiary.

THEY HAVE SAID GOODBY.
Onion Service of Presbyterinn Churches In
Honor of MissionRries-Going to Egypl

Onion Service of Presbyterian Churches In
Honor of Missionaries-Going to Egypl
and India.
About $500 people congregated at the
First United Presbyterian Church. ALE.
gheny, last night, to wish hearty "God
speed" to the missionaries, male and female,
who will be sent to India and Egypt by the
combined churches of Pittsburgh and ALLIE
gheny of this denomination.
The exercises were conducted in the usual
manner, but there was touch of sadness in
them. Many an eve silently dropped tear
at parting with friends who they had been
familiar with for years. They recognized
that the lapse of few hours would separate
them, possibly never to meet again in this
life. And so they parted. At 8 o'clock
this morning one-half OF the missionaries
will be speeding across the continents to
Egypt to wage war against false prophets,
and the other half will go across trackless
waters to convert opulent rajahs and the
worshipers OF the great Mogul.
DIR. Grier, of the Allegheny Theological
Seminary, introduced the missionaries in a
brief speech, saying that these men were
going away from them, but they carried the
sympathies Of the church to which they be-
longed The Revs. W. M. Nichol, E. M.
Giffen, Krindenier, T. f. Cummings, I. E.
Holiday, E. E. File addressed the meeting
These gentlemen are the missionaries, and
they will be accompanied by their wives,
together with the Misses Gary, Gordon and
Anderson.
Rev. J. B. Dales, of Philadelphia the
veteran Corresponding Secretary of the
United Presbyterian Board of Missions,
spoke on the necessity of foreign missions.
He said:
'The men who are leaving you are full of
zeal for their laudable work. Upon their
brow sits youth In its pristine glory. In
their hearts is enthroned the love of Christ,
which has famed their ambition into the
lofty purpose of carrying light into dark
lands beyond the sea. With them they take
partners who will help them to minister
more effectively the gospel of peace in those
heather lands"
Dr. Dale then drew a comparison of mis-
sionary work to-day from what it was when
the union OF the Presbyterian body was
formed. He said at that time there were
only two stations, with six missionaries,
while to-day this body had 175 stations,
with about 500 laborers, Sc churches and
5000 communIcants. They also had 236
schools, with 8, AL pupils, who were receiving
secular and religious education. They con-
tributed abouI sos, ,5S5 annually for the sup
port of the work and subsistence of the
workers.

INDORSED BY SOME.

A Business Mnn suggests Erecting a
Market on Duquesne Way.
In the connection with the scheme to
widen Diamond street, business man
suggests it would be a good idea to erect a
market house on Duquesne Way below
Sixth street bridge. A number of traders
interviewed on the subject, favor the
scheme. In widening Diamond street, it is
proposed to erect an arcade through both
sides of the market house. extending across
Market street. This will take up consid-
erable space, and a new house has been
suggested as remedy.
Another business man believed better
plan would be to cut down the hump and
use the old Fifth Avenue Market House.
The building is available and centrally
located.

the interests involved. Should the Erie

system down the Ohio be established, the
fullest and most accurate river reports would
be positive necessity. Any one report in

as to balance the cost of the service for ten
years"

flah.r R.Ila,x xr..s.a ~. q.

He Comes Back nj shs Omciai Who Rid
icuIed the African Expedition : The
Other Fellow Wanted 10 Go.
Rev. DR.. W. J. Holland was shown the
item yesterday containing the substance OF
an interview with Government official at
Washington ridiculing the expedition to
Africa and especially making light Of the
qualifications Of Prof. Todd
II am no longer member of the expe-
dition," said DR.. Holland, 'and I can
speak, therefore, the more freely. recog-
nize at glance the source of the aspersions
upon the qualifications of Prof Todd. The
attack is as cowardly as it is malicious. 1t
is the product Of pure envy, and emanates
from some OF the understrappers of the
Navy Department connected with the Naval
Observatory. Thereby hangs a tale.
After Congress had appropriated the
money to send the expedition to Africa the
next step was the appointment by the Secre-
tary Of the Navy Of an Advisory Board of
three to whom the matter of making pre-
liminary inquiries and ascertainIng q proper
course of procedure was intrusted. This
board reported recommending the division
equal sums, and the sending out Of expedi-
tions, at the head OF one of which should be
Prof. Todd, and at the head Of the other one
Of the attaches of the Naval Observatory.
The report was received, the board dis
charged. and the whole matter intrusted
finally 10 Commodore Dewey, head Of the
Bureau of Equipment and Recruiting, and
the man at the Naval Observatory was
quietly informed that in the interests Of good
discipline and science it was not deemed ad-
visable to organize double headed expedi-
tion, so his services would not b required.
Now he is naturally mad and has taken to
singing mud. Prof. Todd and his friends
can well afford to smile at the performance
and pity the author of these reports, which
are as contemptible as they are calumnious.
The latter portion Of the attack which is
leveled squarely at Prof. Simm Newcomb is
simply beneath contempt. Prof. NeEcomb
is too great, too noted and too famous man
to allow his equanimity to be disturbed by
the maunderings Of disappointed and
envious subaltern."

Three Modest Quakerr.

The services in the Jail yesterday after
noon was something out of the usual order.
They were conducted by three Quakers, two
from Philadelphia and one from this city.
None Of them would give their names. The
services were in the Quaker fashion, with
out music or singing. One is supposed to
be Thomas II. Whitson, of Philadelphia,
who is visiting in Pittsburg.
