Grand Worthy Chief Templar A. H. Les
lie and Rev. G. S. Bettes were the princi-
pal speakers at the Opera House Union
temperance meeting last evening. 1t was a
we'll attended, enthusiastic meeting, in
which the saloon was arraigned as the chief
factor in turning out criminals. If Mr..
Bettes were a saloon keeper, he said, he
would take his license to heaven when he
died and present it as his certificate of good
character indorsed by ministers, lawyers,
business men and mechanics who voted to
have that license issued. ~.fess
Rev. j. B. Koehne made an address for
the collection, in the course of which he
said the liquor men were fighting hard for
success. The baskets yielded well. After
the meeting over 200 pledges were obtained.
A Constitutional amendment mass meet
ing was held in the Walton M. E. Church,
Southside, last night. The church was filled
with the sympathizers Of the movement.
The choir of the church furnished some spe-
cial music. Rev. B. r. Wilburn, the pas
tor of the church, opened the meeting with
prayer, and introduced VIM. NJ. Price, Esq,
who said that as long as the people of Penn
sylvania tolerated the liquor traffic they en-
couraged the saloon keeper, engaged in a
business that took bread from the mouths of
hungry children, and made murderers of
men.
Yesterday afternoon a meeting was held
at Moorhead Hall, on Grant street, in the
interest of the Constitutional amendment
The hall was crowded to the entrance door,
the great majority of the audience being
mill men, and the best possible class Of
men that the adherents of prohibition want
to talk to. 1t was announced that Colonel
W. D. Moore would address the meeting,
but for some reason he did not appear. Mrs.
r. II. Jones, however, took charge of the
speech making, and, after reading a
Scripture lesson, she and Rev. Josephus
Cheaney made short addresses in their
earnest and well-known manner.
Mrs. r. H. Jones also conducted meet
ing in front of the Southside Market House
yesterday afternoon. About 200 people
listened to the address which was delivered
by Mrs. Jones' Several members of the
Moorhead Gospel Temperance Union were
present and conducted the singing.
The Sons of Temperance Hall, on Ohio
street, Allegheny, was crowded last night
for the first time since these meetings were
started. John Boggs, Esq, was the princi-
pal speaker, and made an earnest address for
the Constitutional amendment.

well attended meeting last night. Mrs. M.
G. Allen presided, and speeches were made
by Captain Spohn, j. N. Moreland and
Rev. G. S. Bettes.

was the text given out. at Central yesterday
morning, and Bob forgot himself and asked
Justice Gripp if he meant to be personal.
James Murphy essayed cordial smile at
the Court, as if they were acquainted, but
was met with the cool, cultivated stare of a
naughty stranger, and Jimmy gasped "Save
me from my friends,'' when he heard the
sentence. He is corner lounger, and the
officer told him to move on, the legal three
times, and then moved him.
George Mashey was doing what he called
singing" at II o'clock Saturday night,
and everybody tore open the shutters along
Fountain street to see what was the matter.
He had Just struck the andante when Ros-
enblatt struck him. Mashey's three friends
stayed with him loyalty; but "Rosey" was
there, too. 1t just cost him $8 40 for bust
ing the chromatlc scale.
John Schneider would be a dandy to
girdle the world. An officer swore he put
his arms around seven people and begged
money from them. The seventh man and
he began to fight. Schneider must have
promised to return it to him Gin day or
two." He will encircle barrels for 80 days.
John and Mary Durant are man and
wife; but it isn't necessary for them to go
out on the street when they want to fight.
Eight dollars and forty cents apiece will
pay for the patrol and leave some for tobies.
Fred Oberhardt is an American citizen
so he told the officer at the corner of Fifth
and Moultrie; but there are limits to the
rights of an American citizen, if he does
spell it in German. Fred was carrying on
a heated discussion with friend, and re-
fused to ''move on, please" and said the
officer could not arrest him. The policeman
performed that impossibility with the
greatest ease.
Some 20 more cases were disposed of in
about 20 minutes, but they we're of the
usual tough class.

The New York Sun has the following to saw
about John NJ. Wards movements
1t can be set down that John Ward did not
come home simply for the purpose of calling
meeting of the Brotherhood of Ball Players
or to settle the question as to where he shall
play next season. but solely to look after pri-
yate matters. Not only does he say this, bat
his friends vouch for the truth of it. Little or
nothing was learned of Wards intended move
ments from the conversations had with him
yesterday. He had not become familiar with
the new classification rule, and had received
no offer from the Washington club so that he
was not in a position to say anything on either
subject.
When asked about his future movements.
and what would determine them Ward said
that salary would decide the whole matter He
said he would be content to 90 to Washington
if the release money, So 900, would be divided
equally. He hardly thought it fair that the
New York club should dispose of him without
his receiving share of thesnoney paid. Ward
also said that he desired to- yet away from New
York, but between Washington and Boston he
had not much choice. He further said that he
would see Mr.. Hewitt of Washington and Man
ager Mutrie about the proposed deal in a day
or two. Baseball was a business with him and
he would be willing to play where he received
the most money He lid not know whether it
was true or not that the Washington club
would offer him 5000 to manage and play with
the team next season.

fsPEc1AI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
SPRINGFIELD, O., March "a. The
friends of General j. Warren Keifer, of this
city, Speaker of the House of Representa-
tives in 1881 and 1882, are making vigorous
efforts to have him appointed to the place of
Associate Justice of the United States Su-
preme Court, vice the late Stanley Matthews.
The movement is backed by Senator Sher-
man, Sam Shellabarger, Ex-Governor Foster
and General Sherman.
The matter leaked out here through ey-
Senator Pringle, an intimate lawyer friend
of General Keifer. President Harrison and
the General were intimately associated in
army life, and have always been the hest of
friends. The friendship of the two men, it
is thought here, may result in Keiier's ap-
pointment to the position. The matter has
just become known here, and has created
great excitement.
A DISPATCH correspondent called at
General Keifer's residence tonight. He
had retired. His son, Horace, said he had
heard nothing of the report. On being
called, General Keifer came out and said he
had not heard anything about the matter.
He intimated, on further questioning, that
such thing might be possible.

NEW YORK, March 24.-There was

zens' Committee in aid of the National
Confederate Soldiers Home at Austin, Tex.

Grand Army men were in the audience, in
Guiding General T. T. Chittenden and Gen
eral Carl Schurz. There were also numerous
Confederate veterans present. Joseph Stew
art. one of the directors of the home, was
the principal speaker. He said in part:
Sectionalism is beiug fast obliterated from
the minds and hearts of men, and the foemen
of 25 years ago now march shoulder to shoulder
in the struggles of civil conflict. The valor
and fortitude of the Confederate dead is an
ever living heritage, not of the South but of the
entire Union. Both sides of the conflict were but
fitting exemplars Of the American soldier We
rejoice that many thousands of Union Veterans
are now upon the pension rolls, and about
5000 are maintained by the Government in
comfortable homes, and at an annual aggregate
expense of about 500 0000, 600 and that:they are
honored wards of the nation. All honor to
those men, and the Government that sustains
and upholds them with its bounty.

NEW YORK, March PA bridge police
man found an old waistcoat in the middle OF
the south roadway at $50 o'clock on last Sun
day night. 1t was ragged and worn. In one
of the pockets was card on which had been
scribbled with pencil this legend:
To be given to j. Mccarthy. When you get this,
Mccarthy, will be in h. j. SQUIRE
1t was written on the back of South street
saloon keepers business card, and there were
no addresses given. There was nothing else in
the waisteoat. A roundsman went down
to the saloon keepers address the
same night and made inquiries there and
throughout the neighborhood. No such
person as Mccarthy or Squire could be
found nor had anybody ever heard of them.
To-day somebody started story about shrieks
on the bridge, followed by the plunge of a
body into the water. 1t had no foundation.
The vest undoubtedly was dropped by some
funny truckman.

INDIANAPOLIS, March 24.-On the first
of May the existing scale for coal mining
in the Brazil district will expire. 1t is now
rs cents for bituminous and 80 cents for
block. Day laborers are paid at the rate of
2H tons for days work. The operators
bolted the convention at Columbus few
days ago because their demand for IL per
cent reduction was not granted. They
claim they can get coal mined at the reduc-
ton. The miners held a n ass meeting last
night at Brazil. Work has been very slack
in the mines forseveral months and many of
the miners have suffered.
A committee was appointed to wait on
the operators and miners in the interest of
the scale. The operators propose reduc-
ton of 20 cents. The miners did not ex-
press themselves on this point. but strike
may result, though it is believed it will be
fruitless, A few days since 15O miners en-
ployed in mine near Knightsville accepted
a reduction of 10 per cent.
