ignorant immigrants should be admitted to
a country whose laws make it incumben on
parents to provide education for their chill
dren. Yet while we are obliged by law 10
educate our children, we voluntarily invite
ignorance to come here and partake in our
government. There is no doubt as to the
number of ignorant people who arrive in
this country annually.

taking affidavits in the case of "a immi-
grants. OF the number only two could sign
their names. Again out of one batch of $50
Immigrants remember only 20 could posi-
lively say what their age was. The others
could only guess it."
"Of course" continued Mr.. Layton, "the
inspection abroad would necessitate the
support of large corps of officials, and
would entail large cost, but would it. in
the end, cost the country any more than in
dividual sections now pay for the support of
the foreign pauper element, both in poor
houses and prisons? 1 don't think it would.
There seems to be pretty uniform opinion
regarding this question of closing our ports
to undesirable emigrants and suppose that
some time or other it will receive the atten-
ton of Congress-"

WILL HAVE BETTER WATER.

Duquesne Heights Cirizens Very Deter
mined About the Mntter-Commitree TO
Meet the Monongnhela Water Company
AuoIher Meeting Called for To- Morrow.
The property owners and residents of
Duquesne Heights held meeting in the
Luckey schoolhouse, Thirty-ffth ward, last
night, to consider plans to secure a better
water supply. About so of the most prom
inent people in the Thirty-fifth ward were
present G. L. Holiday presided and James
A. Steen, the architect, was made Secre-
tary
Mr.. Holiday stated that he had brought
the volume of Select Council minutes con-
tanning the contract between the City of
Company with him, and on motion the
ordinance giving the Monongahela Com
pany the privilege of holding monopoly of
the Southside water supply for q years was
read. In consideration of the Monongahela
Company agreeing to supply the fire plugs
on its mains free, and agreeing to
charge the same rates to consumers as were
paid in other parts of town, the city
agreed not to extend its Carson street main
and to leave the field clear to the Mononga-
hela Company for 81 years. The city was to
supply the fire plugs, and it was agreed that
it the supply of the Monongahela Company
became short the Carson street main was to
be connected to that of the company, and the
latter was to paw 10 cents per 1000 gallons
for the water supplied by the city. The
Monongahela Company was not to extend
its mains until the profits reached 20 per
cent, and the city was given the privilege OF
buying the company's plant at the end of
the q years. This ordinance was passed on
December IA, 1885, and the vote in Select
Council was As to 8. The three members
voting against it were Holiday, Watson
and Epping. All the members from the
Southside except Holiday voted for it.
When the reading of the ordinance was
completed Mr.. Reitz stated it seemed to
place the people of the Southside at the
mercy of the Monongahela Water Company
for the next q years.
1t was agreed that a committee of citizens
should meet with the Committee of Councils
and the officers of the water company, to be
held shortly. The following is the COM
mittee: Daniel McGeary, W. C. Reitz,
Captain John Moren, John Gearing, Will
lam Schurr. Chairman. G. L. Holiday.
A discussion of the situation followed,
after which another meeting was arranged
for Friday night and the meeting ad-
journed.

Sensible Hinta for summer.

To the many hundreds of families who do
not find it convenient to leave the city for
the summer months the following hints Will
be found valuable. Avoid exposure to the
sun as lar as possible; do as little cooking as
you can, thereby keeping your house and
yourself cool, and the best summer drink by
all odds is buttermilk. Cover your floors
with cool and clean mating, hang lace cur
tains to your windows, thereby letting in the
air and keeping out the flies, and where cur
tains are not used hang window shades that
will exclude the light and heat. During
the day wear neat gingham dress and for
evening put on cool satine wrapper, bathe
every day and get your hosiery, underwear,
fans, etc., from Arthur Schondelmyer 8
Co.. who have mattings at Sc and 1Oc per
yard, lace curtains at 81 pair and upward,
window shades at 25c apiece and upward,
ginghams, percales and satines from 1Oc to
25c per yard. By observing the above hints
you will have no trouble getting through
the summer. Come to 68 and 20 Ohio st.
for cheapest carpets, wall paper and dry
goods IN Allegheny. IT'S

TO END IN A CONFERENCE.
THE IRON SCHEDULE WILL NOT BE DIS.
POSED OF BY THE SENATE.

Martin Highly Plensed With His Trip to
Washington-strIke Against Roughing
Machine-K. of L. Painters Not Afraid Of
the Brotherhood-Labor News.
Secretary William Martin. of the Anal
gamated, returned home yesterday we'll
pleased with MS visit to Washington. He
said: "We were treated very nicely by every
body, and especially by the only two
Senators we saw, namely Messrs. Aldrich
and Sherman. We saw each of the Senators
at his house, and each listened very at
tentively and courteously to our statements.
When with Senator Aldrich, the Senator
had occasion to go to the Capitol for some
papers and he drove US there in his carriage,
asking questions and discussing rates on the
way.
II don't think the iron schedules will be
disposed of by the Senate; they will have to
come before conference committee for final
settlement. The Western Republican Sena-
tors are opposed to the bill, but in rather an
apathetic way. They don't openly oppose
it, and neither do they give it their support.
AS for the Democratic Senator'S" said Mr..
Martin, "they would vote for a reduction if
they were to put it down to 81 ton.''

SHE WAS A TERROR TO THE DISTRICT.

Mrs. Lottie Elk Threw Flat Irons Mt the
Neighbors and Stole Their CIothiug.
The house wives on Center avenue arose
in arms yesterday and caused the arrest of
Lottie Elk. alias "Mary the Ragpicker, -
a well-known character about the Hill
wards The complaint is that "Mary the
Ragpicker" has been accustomed to ap-
propriate to herself her neighbors' clothes,
and that when asked to return her pecula.
tions she would respond BY hurling all
kinds of missiles that came handy at the
owners.
She raided the clothesline of Mrs. Eliza
beth Connolly, on Soho street, one day, and
when Mrs. Connolly, accompanied by big
delegation of women of the neighborhood,
went to the rag picker's house on Grove
and demanded that she give up the stolen
goods, the rag picker threw smoothing
iron at them, the women say, which just
escaped contact with Mrs. Connolly's head.
The women then notified Officer Meyers.
He came into collision with the rag picker
on Wylie avenue. She fought the officer
all over the street, but was finally landed in
the Eleventh ward station.

ROUGH ON RoUGHERs,
A Roughing Machine ut the Woods Run
Mill Causes a Strike.

Roughing Machine ut the Woods Run
Mill Causes a Strike.
President Weihe and President-at-Larpe
Garland visited divers Woods Run Mill
yesterday afternoon to inquire into the mat
ter between the roughers and the firm in
connection with the introduction of a rough
ing machine at one mill. The men had
not, it seems, any objection to the machine
SO long as the men were retained and the
scale rate of wages paid. But the intro
duction of the roughing machine dispensed
with the rougher and found work for a
cheaper man, Very naturally the rougher
and his fellow workmen objected, They
further emphasized their objection by
striking.
The matter would seem to be an important
one. If roughing machines are universally
introduced a corresponding number Of
skilled hands will be dispensed with to
make room for cheaper labor.

IN THE P0TTER.s FIELD.
A Wealthy Pittsburg Mans Strange Tale Of
Filial Neglect.

Wealthy Pittsburg Mans Strange Tale of
Filial Neglect.
A strange secret of the potter's field has
been brought to light by the visit of a
wealthy Pittsburg man to the Department
of Charities last Tuesday. He said he wanted
a pass to visit the City Farm for the pur-
pose of inspecting the land about it.
He was referred to Examiner Hoff-
man, and yesterday he returned to the
department with his request. After long
conversation he told Examiner Hoffman
that the real object of his request was to To-
cate his fathers grave, who died some time
ago in the poorhouse and was buried In pot
ter's field. Then he said that both his
father and mother had been inmates of the
farm, and that after his fathers death and
burial there his mother was taken out At
her death she was inferred in the Allegheny
Cemetery, but his fathers remains were per-
mitted to fill pauper's grave.
The talk about selling the farm had at last
induced the sons to remove their fathers
bones. The man who told this strange story
can count his money by the hundred thou
sands. Examiner Hoffman granted his re.
