THE PITTSBURG INCLINE.
The Contract Let for Laying the Long Track
Last Thursday.

Last Thursday.
The contract for laying the track of the
Pittsburg incline was awarded Thursday
and will be pushed as fast as possible.
There are 800 feet Of iron trestle to be
erected before the 1850 feet Of
the incline will be completed. The
work on the foundation Of the
power house at the upper end is
completed, and the building will soon be
under way. The cars will resemble those
of the Penn avenue incline. A. Lewis, the
attorney of the company, told = reporter
that the difficulty with the Pittsburg and
Mt Oliver Incline Company has been ami
cably settled, and nothing is in the way Of
the early completion Of the line
After the above was written President G.
j. Scultz, of the Pittsburg and Mt. Oliver
Incline Company, was seen by DISPATCH
reporter. He said that the suit against the
Pittsburg Incline Company was not settled.
At least he had not heard about anything Of
the kind, and settlement could hardly be
made without his knowledge.

to last very long time. Indeed, I noticed
that one of the Cardinals, who was evident
ly under the impression that His Holiness
had become absorbed in his devotions, went
over and whispered to him. The Pope then
arose, about 10 minutes after he had reached
the altar, and retraeed his steps by the way
that he had come. His return was accom-
panied with the same manifestations of pop
ular veneration as had appeared on his way
to the altar. One of these was so impress

THE POPE A LITTLE TARDY.
By this time, as you must suppose, the
temperature OF the air in the chapel had
reached fever heat, and the vast concourse
was literally mass of perspiring human
ity. Inquiring of bystander, the hour
being now considerably past that an
nounced, whether the Pope was usually not
punctual in filling his engagements, was
told that in earlier years, when his physical
health was good, he was a model of punctu-
ality, always promptly on time, but this
had been less and less the case with increas-
ing years and bodily infrmlties. OF these
the recollection was painful one that on the
public occasion preceding this in which he
had participated, his weakness was so great
that be had to be carried into the services,
and tainted while assisting in them. There
was no telling this time when he would
arrive, but it would be probably not much
before o'clock. At halfpast three the
perspiration was streaming down DR.. Tai

in the crowd. The circumstances of delay
became more and more distressing, and
every now and then the guards permitted
people who could not hear the sufocating
pressure to pass out between their majestic
ranks. The sturdy American preacher held
his ground without hinching, and beguiled
the time by getting up q conversation with
an officer of the Swiss troops, who could

They recognized DR.. Talmage, and were

A movement throughout the chapel, which
everybody who has stood on Broadway wait
ing for q procession to pass can realize,
meant the Pope was coming. About 25
Cardinals preceded him in the procession Of
which he was the central figure, as many
following him as be walked between the
ranks Of the sOldiery.

The Indians are sensitive of their former
condition. Many interesting little things
are occurring every day, which touch
the hearts and enlist the sympathies
of those in charge. A few chiefs yearly
visit their children and the meeting between
the barbarian from the plains and his rela-
tives convince the most skeptical that the
''heart of man answers to heart, as face to
face in water" whatever the skin it beats
under. The chiefs, on their arrival at the
school, have plenty Of money and take their
children to the different stores, buying them
what they fancy. One little girl
asked for moccasins, but her old
father refused this. "Why do you ask
for moccasins? send you here to be a

Agony is Courted

BY persons who, attacked by mild form
of rheumatism, neglect to seek prompt re-
lief. Subsequent torture is prevented by
an immediate resort to HOstetter's Stomach
Bitters. Slight exposure, an occasional
draught, will beget the painful malady,
where there is a predisposition to it in the
blood. 1t is not difficult to arrest the trou-
BILE at the outset, but well nigh impossible
to eradicate it when matured. No evidence
in relation to this superb blood depurent
is more positive than that which establishes
its efficacy as preventive and remedy for
rheumatism. Not only is it thorough, but
safe, which the vegetable and mineral poi
sons, often taken as curatives of the di-
sease, are not. Besides eXpelling the rheu-
matte virus from the system, it overcomes
fever and ague, biliousness, constipation
and dyspepsia.
