KIeber., Music House Leads Them All.


1t is conceded that the bulk of pianos and
organs sold in this city and neighborhood
come from the old and popular house of II.
Klebef & Bro, 506 Wood street. They have
"handled" all the best instruments made in
this country and Europe, but they sell only
the choicest of them all, leaving it to all the
other music dealers to "handle" away at the
inferior, worthless ones. What can compare
with the matchless Steinway, the superb
Conover or the popular Opera and Gabler
pianos? or the great Burdett organs, the dust
and mouse-prOof Earhuf organs, or the
matchless new Vocation church organ,
which, while only costing $500, is fully equal
in power and variety to 81, 500 pipe organ,
and will cost absolutely nothing for keeping
it in good tune for many years, while every
pipe organ must be tuned once every year at
least at an expense of upward of 500.
Messrs. Kleber & Bro. are the pioneer music
dealers of Pittsburg. and their good name
for strictly honest and honorable dealings
attracts the big majority of buyers to their
store, 506 Wood street.

Major E A. Montooth spoke on THE Vet

of the brave men who fought bled and died
for their country. He said they set an ex-
ample to the youth of the country who, he
thought, would show themselves to be as
worthy as their fathers, should they have oc-
casion to do so. He also paid high tribute to
the Confederate veterans whose eyes he said,
filled with tears as they gazed upon the Amer
ican flag.
Hon. Thomas Ewing, President of Common
Pleas Court replied to the toast THE Bar"
He thought the press and bar should dwell in
unity on account Of the close associations ex-

injustice to his Client he tries to get even Before

The bar and the press have many things in COM
mon. They have many common temptations,
is, to great extent, common. The bar is as old
civilization. Gibbons said that the laws OF the
nation are the most important part of its history.
As nations progress or retrograde, the outward
form OF the law must change itself to circum-
stances. The lawyer, as an individual has many
temptations, and must make q living out of his

MR.. CHAIRMAN-No adequate response to this
toast can be made in 10 or Is minutes. What can
be said therefore, must be merely suggestive Of
a few points rather than exhaustive Of any.
In the first instance then, the progress Of the
press Of Pittsburg has the dual character Of being
in great measure the reflection and in no small
measure one Of the causes Of the magnificent
progress Of the city itself. Pittsburg newspapers
have never Jagged behind the community. 1t is
not due alone to those who are gathered here to-
night to recognize this fact, but any review, how
brief, would be unworthy If it failed in con-
spicuous tribute to their predecessors-the earlier
pressmen of Pittsbu-g who labOred amidst the
difficulties unknown to-day, and who, by their
intelligent enterprise and versatile industry,
marked out the lines upon which the later devei-
opment Of our local journals has proceeded.
In estimating progress we must consider the en-
virOnment and conditions Of the former times.
Twenty years ago there were as many newspapers
IN PittsburR there are to-day; but their ctrcu-
tion was not one-nfth what IL now is. About 10, =

Socialist Manifesto Promulgated in Berlin
-Emin Replies to Stanley-Fitting Out
Expeditions for the Interior.

BERLIN, April 1.-THE Prussian diet was
opened to-day by Chancellor Caprivi. In his
speech he said: ''It is not my intention to
state the governments programme, but hav-
ing hitherto held aloof from political life
now wish to speak few words in order to
approach you personally" The chancellor
then referred to the important position
which had been held by Bismarck, and ex-
pressed the hope that in the future the en-
pire would continue secure. "The edifce of
state, he said, sis cemented firmly enough
to resist wind and weather. Moreover, the
noble personality of the young monarch has
already manifested itself at home
and Abroad He affirmed his I'M
dying belief in the future of
Prussia and of the German empire.
Both could anticipate the future full of
hope. The emperor had said his course
would remain the same. The inauguration
of new era, therefore, was not to be ex-
pected, although more harmonious solidar.
ity would be manifest among members of
the diet. In conclusion the chancellor said
he would allow the widest scope to practi
cal criticism and would adopt what was
good wherever found He would cooperate
with all persons having at heart the inter
ests of Prussia and aiming to foster the
monarchic feeling in Prussia, and national
feeling throughout the empire.

A Socialist Manifesto.

BERLIN, April 15.-The Volksblatt pub
lished manifesto by the meeting of So
cialist delegates at Halle Sunday. It unanl-
mously recommends the observance of
May LIST as general labor demonstration
day, provided workmen do not come in
collision with the police. The demonstra-
ton, it says, ought to take the form of a
day of rest. Meetings should also be held
to urge the establishment of an eight-hour
day and prepare petition for presentation
to the reichstag, asking the enactment OF
an eight-hour law. The manifesto further
says that after the victories achieved by
the socialists at the recent election it is not
necessary to hold public review. All 80
cialist members of the reichstag, except
one, who is in prison, signed the manifesto,
to avoid conflicts with the authorities
which, they declare, are hoped for by bour'
geoisie.
