THE PASSION PLAY.

Rev. George Hodges Lectures on That In
teresting Subject Before the Laymen's
League of Trinity Church-Description
of the Actors and Stages.
Rev. George Hodges lectured last night
before the Laymen's League of Trinity P.
E. Church on the subject of the Passion
Play at Oberammergau." Bishop White
head opened the meeting and introduced the
speaker. In his Introductory Bishop White
head, on behalf OF the league, thanked Mr.
HodgeNor his giving them night in the
season of preparation for the holidays.
In opening his address Mr. Hodges prom
ised to tell all he knew about the greatest
sight he ever saw, the Passion Play at
Oberammergau. He told the story in o
manner the most interesting. and held the
audience in marked attention during the
entire recital of the curious custom. First
he told of the origin of the Passion Play in
this certain place. How the peasant brought
in plague, and to rid themselves of the
dread disease the people made solemn vow
to reproduce the Passion Play once in ten
years.
The Passion Play had its origin in the
middle ages as a means of teaching the bar
barians who came down from the north and
could be taught religion in no other way.
After awhile it grew to be an evil, and was
abolished every place except at Oberam-
mergau.
Mr.. Hodges gave descriptions of the diff.
ferent plays, the actors and the stages from
the middle ages to the present day, and gave
realistic description of the play as he
saw it.

VOTING ON THE SCALE.
Carpenters Expressing Their Views on the
Eicht-Ho Question

Carpenters Expressing Their Views on the
EiGht-Hour Question.
-Four local unions of carpenters met last
night and voted on the proposition to de-
mand the eight-hour work-day March 1.
They were Union No. 2SS, at Homestead; !;
No. 142, at Al Fifth avenue; No. 164, at 537
Smithfeld street, and No. SOC, composed OF
machine hands, at Imperial Hall. While
the vote in no case was very large it was al
most unanimous for entering the movement.
The greatest opposition to the proposed new
scale was among the members OF the ma
chine hands union. One of these said after
the meeting:
81 firmly believe now that nothing can
prevent our people from plunging into this
movement, although l am not prepared to
say it would be the best thing for US. Of
course we will have an immense support and
NAV not ha We much trouble in gaining our
point, but am inclined to believe it will
not be the best thing for US. 1t will not be
just for us to take advantage of possibilities
in Pittsburg to the detriment of the trade in
other cities where longer hours are in force.
1t is practical impessibility for con-
tractors who are working their men 10 and
II hours, to compete with firms only running
or 81
In this connection it may be said that
the demand for eight hours by the miners
will be strongly supported. The Amalgam-
ated Association will lend its entire force.
This is step the association has never
before sanctioned, out it is understood the
various lodges are now willing to lend their
assistance.

AFTER A NEW STEAMER.
Captain Davis Looking for Boat to Re-
place the Storm.

Captain Davis Looking for a Boat to Re-
place the Storm.
Captain DAVIS Davis, of the steamer
Storm, is in the city for the purpose of pur-
chasing steamboat to replace the one men,
toned, which is now at the bottom of the
Ohio river at Ashland, Ky. She went
down during the bad weather last week.
There were four people on the boat at the
time. She was engaged in transferring cars
across the river from the Scioto Railroad.
Captain Davis noticed that the boat was
doomed, and those on board barely had
time to csc ape. The Storm was formerly
owned in this city by man named Fowler,
and was in the towing trade between here
and Louisville and Cincinnati. She was
valued at several thousand dollars and will
be total wreck. Captain Davis has two
or three steamboats, in view, one of them
being the Acorn, of the Fawcett line. 1t
is thought that owing to the recent troubles
of the firm, the Acorn will be on the
market
Another item of news concerning river
men is the fact that Captain Frank Will
Jams, pilot OF the big steamboat w. w.
O'Neil, is laid up at the Buckingham
House, Parkersburg, with broken leg and
bad internal injuries. The wheel of the
boat run down, and in some manner he was
caught in it. His injuries are of a serious
character. Captain Williams is well and
widely known in this city and vicinity, and
his speedy recovery is anxlously wished for.

BIG COAL SHIPMENTS.

Nearly 5000, 900 Bushels Ready to Go
Down the River To-Day-More May be
Sent out-The Water Rapidly Swelling
The Packets.
The river at last got hustle on itself
yesterday and began good rise. During
the forenoon it went up at the rate of three
inches an hour. In the afternoon 1t con-
tinued TO rise quite rapidly, and later it was
going up at the rate of foot an hour. The
cold weather stopped the rapid rise during
the night, but if the warm weather con-
tinues to-day the river will reach 16 or IS
feet. 1t was above the 8-foot notch last
evening.
This makes tn. coal men happy, and sew
eral million bushels of coal will go down
the river to-day and tomorrow. The boats
anu tows prepared yesterday are as follows:
W. II. Browns sons Will send out the
Charley, Alice and Sam Brown, the Cruiser
and the Percy Kelley. Their tow will have
over $4,000 bushels of coal.
Joseph Walton & Co. will send out
the Joe Walton with II barges and .
fuel boats, Clifton with II barges, Sam
Clark with 10 coal boats and fuel boats,
Nellie Walton with II barges, Lud Kei er
4 coal boats and 6 barges, and Time with 10
coal boats and l fuel boat. The total
amount OF coal foots up 1032, 600 bushels.
The John w. Walton will take out 10 coal
boats and 2 fuel boats on Wednesday,
adding about 264, 600. This brings the total
up to l ,296, 600.
The Iron Duke will leave Shoustown to-
day with barges of rails and barge of
about Is 600 bushels of coal.
The Hornet No. 2 will take out IA barges,
about 56, 900 bushels of coal.
The Diamond will have II barges, or
about 104, 900 bushels of coal.
The Gilmore will take out IA barges, or
about Sc. 900 bushels of coal
The total amount of coal to go down the
river to-day will be 2,372, 900. There are
doubtless other tows which were not re-
ported or which will be prepared to-day that
will swell the amount up to at least 3,0OO,-
900.
Ot the packets the keystone State arrived
and departed for Cincinnati yesterday. She
had on board large amount of merchandise
taken from the Ben Hur, which broke a
shalt between Pittsburg and Wheeling. The
Andes will be the Cincinnati boat to-day.

sessments, and hear all complaints, revising
and equalizing according to all the light
they can get In the off years it is their
business to keep record of prices paid for
property in each district, to ascertain the
environment in each case, and, in a general
way, to learn all that can be known regard
ing location, situation, productive value,
etc. The result is that a complaining tax
able is often confronted with more iniorma-
tion regarding his immediate neighborhood
than he has himself in stock, and the men
who pass on his case are. at least in theory,
inapproachable, except by way of argument
and testimony.
The arrangement is said to give satisfac-
tion in Philadelphia, and is expected to
work equally well, if not better, here.

DIED FROM NATURAL CAUSES.

Coroner Mcdowell Finds Nothing suspi-
cious in the Death of Miss Hoffman.
Coroner Mcdowell personally investiga-
ted the death of Margaret Hoffman, the 49,
year-old girl who died on Saturday night,
and as result decided there were no sus-
plcious circumstances surrounding the case,
and that no inquest was necessary. There
was no doubt that the girl had been de-
ceived, but her death was due to fever, the
cause OF which was purely accidental.
The stories about the girl, the Coroner
SAYS, were originated and circulated by a
neighbor of unsound mind.
