FLYNN SAYS BE Is INNOCENT.

BothwelPs Slayer Holds His Nerve, but the
Evidence Against Him is Strong.
William Flynn, the huckster arrested for
the murder of John Boutwell, on Thursday
night, is still an inmate of the Allegheny
lookup. Flynn still persists in his state
ment that be did not do the cutting. The
prisoner did not know that Boutwell, was
dead until yesterday afternoon, when he
heard someone talking about it. This did
not seem to move him any. Last night
Flynn put in his time by lying on the floor
OF his cell, and gave as a reason for SO doing
that he lay there just because he wanted to.
He partook Of no food yesterday, stating
that he did not feel hungry.
Detective Glenn, who has been at work on
the case, stated last night that his chain of
evidence is about complete. The officer has
found a boy who alleges that he saw Flynn
open the knife and strike Boutwell, blow,
after which the latter fell. The coat and
vest OF the deceased had also been secured
and they show half a dozen cuts, two in the
back, one under the sleeve and the rest in
front. Detective Glenn has also discovered
the place where Flynn bought the SLOUGH
hat. his stiff hat being lost during the fight,
while making his flight to this side of the
river. The stiff hat is also in the possession
of the police authorities.
The inquest in the case will be opened at
10 o'clock this morning in the Coroner's
Office.

HAS A HORROR OF DIPHTHER1A.

Superintendent Baker Makes Some Timely
Suggestions About the Dread Disease.
Superintendent Baker, OF the Bureau of
Health, said yesterday that the city was
remarkably free from dangerous diseases at
the present time. Diphtheria had prevailed
in some parts of the city, but up to date it
had not gained much of a foothold in any
district, and he did not think that it would.
While the conversation was going on, a
gentleman who was listening remarked that
he knew of an instance on the hill where a
child had died of the disease and where the
body was kept in the house for two days
and then given public burial. More than
this six little children of the neighborhood
were selected and acted as pail bearers.
He cited another case where child had
died from a most virulent attack of
diphtheria, and during its illness mothers
of several children were running in and out
of the house at nearly all hours of the day.
Superintendent Baker had no reason to
doubt the veracity of these statements, as he
knew the gentleman very we'll. but he ex-
pressed the greatest astonishment at such
actions. "Why," said he, ''that is simply
outrageous. 1 have a perfect horror of
diphtheria. 1t is one of the most treacher-
Gus diseases 1 know of. I would much
prefer smallpox, fevers, or almost any
thing else in my family. Persons dying
from diphtheria should be buried as
quickly and as quietly as possible, and
above all things persons should not 60 near
such patients unless it is matter of neces-
sity. The press OF the city should impress
these facts upon the minds of the people,
and any efforts in that direction will meet
with my most hearty approval"

A YOUNG MAN IN TROUBLE.
He is Arrested on Complaint of His Step
brother and Locked Up.

He is Arrested on Complaint of His Step
brother and Locked Up.
T. M. Lamb, son of DR.. B. F. Lamb, of
Oakland, was arrested last night on a seri-
Gus charge preferred by his stepbrother, Ed
ward House, and the brother of the young
lady in the case, to whom Lamb says he is
engaged to be married. DIR. Lamb, the
father Of the prisoner, is married to Mrs
John A. House, who was a widow, and is
the mother of Miss Winnie House, the girl
il the case, who is about 16 years of age.
The Lamb family, with the exception of
the son, reside at No. 276 Oakland avenue.
The son, who is about 20 years of age, has
not been at home for some time, and recent
ly returned from a visit to Baltimore. He
was arrested in Oakland by Officer Eagen.
He expressed surprise at his arrest, and
said he did not understand the matter and
that he was engaged to be married to the
girl. Last evening be sent messenger to
his father, who, upon hearing Of his sons
arrest, was also surprised. He said he
knew nothing of the affair. and at once
started out to learn something of it. House,
who made the information, could not be
seen. Lamb is locked up for hearing.

WAVING EXAMINATIONS.

The High School Faculty Wants to Admit
All Pupils Whose Public School Average
is so Per Cent-The Committee Laid the
Matter Over.
A movement is on foot to partially change
the method of admitting pupils to the High
School. The faculty wants to waive the
examinations Of pupils whose average stand
ing in the ward schools is above 80 per cent,
and in such cases take the pupils without
subjecting them to the trials and tribula-
tions of the preliminary and final exsmina-
tions. The matter came up before the meet
ing Of the High School Committee of the
Board of Education last night, but no action
was taken on it.
At the meeting a communication was re-
ceived from the High School faculty recon-
mending an addition to the rules governing
the promotion of pupils in the High School.
They desired that scholars whose average in
a study is 80 per cent or more each month
during the term, shall be excused from e1-
animation in that study and in these cases
the average percentage in recitation to con-
stitute the standing for examination.
DR.. McKelvey and Sheriff McCandless
opposed the change on the ground that it
was an entering wedge to no examination at
all. Sheriff McCandless stated that exami-
nations were for the purpose of ascertaining
how much a pupil had absorbed and re-
taiaed, and would be erroneous to discontinue
them. The matter was laid over for one
month.
The report of the High school for the
month of September showed an enrolment
of S32 pupils, an increase of 108 over the
same mouth of last year. The average at
tendance was S05.
An election of two new teachers for the
High School was held. Mr.. E. L. Elliott
was elected assistant teacher OF sciences
and Miss Annie Guttendorf was chosen as
an assistant teacher in the commercial de-
partment,

A TARANTULA FROM THE HILLS.

One of the venomous Things Found in a
Bunch of Bananas in the Market
A broad-shouldered, contented- looking
man sauntered into Quincy Robison's cigar
store last evening and threw an object upon
the show case that looked at q distance
something like cross between huge
spider and a small turtle. The clerk drew
back as he asked with slight tinge Of
fright in bis voice: "What In blazes is
that?
''Tarantula," said the man.
Tara what?" asked the clerk.
"TarantuIa," again replied the man.
SCOT him down at Sheridau's stand in the
market in bunch of bananas. Came very
near biting a woman. The jig 'ud been up
been up with her if he had. Pizen as 20
rattlesnakes, but killed him." saying
which be picked the deadly thing up be-
tween his thumb and finger and fairly
gloated over the capture. 1t was a tarant-
ula, sure enough, and the man told such a
straight story that everyone believed it.
After parading the specimen for some time
the man started away, as he said, to place
the prize among a collection of reptiles and
insects that he is making up.

GODS ETERNAL DECREE.
SUBJECT OF YESTERDAYS WORK OF
THE REvISIoNlSTS.

The Committee Now Making Some Progress
in Constructing the New Confession O
Faith-Three Members to Go Home To
Day, and Two to Arrive.
The Presbyterian General Assembly Com
mittee on the Revision of the Confession o.
Faith has at last gotten down where it car
see some progress. Yesterday after working
TN the sixth chapter awhile and fixing the
fourth section to its liking, it recalled the
third chapter. The original reading of the
section of the sixth chapter, the revision o.
which was adopted yesterday is: "Fron
this original corruption, whereby we are
utterly indisposed, disabled and made oppo.
site to all good and wholly inclined to all
evil, do proceed all actual transgresslons. u
Chapter III, relating to Gods eternal
decree, was then taken up and discussed
during the afternoon, and as it still re-
manned a vexed question an evening session
was held on account of some of the members
of the committee having prepared to leave
for their several homes to-day. In the even
ing the discussion was continued, and after
the entire committee had given views on the
question it was referred TO subcommittee
of six to properly arrange and report as soon
as possible That report may be ready to.
day, and may not be finished before Mon
day. The general idea is said to be for a
modification of this chapter. The third and
fourth sections are the most important. and
are as follows:
By decree of God for the manifestation of
His glory, some men and angels are predesti-
mated unto everlasting life, and others fore
ordained to everlasting death.
These angels and men, thus predestinated and
foreordained. are. particularly and unchange-

and definite that it cannot either be increased
or diminished.
Rev. DR.. Roberts. the chairman. said last
evening that he thought by Monday the
committee will have gained some headway
and will doubtless then have something
ready for the public. They will make noth-
ing public until it is adopted and ready to
be reported to the General Assembly.
kilograms were received from Rev. DR..
Booth and Mr.. Stratton, the members of the
committee from New York and New JERSEY,
stating that they will arrive in the city to-
day. Three will leave this morning: Rev.
Junkin. The committee will in all prob
ability adjourn on Tuesday next, to meet
again in Washington in February.
Members of the committee occupy the
leading pulpits OF the city tomorrow. Rev.
DR.. Roberts will preach in the Bellfeld
Presbyterian Church in the morning, and
Rev. DR.. Harry johnson in the Third
Church, but the others have not all been as
signed to pulpits.
Manager johnson, of the Pittsburg Expo
sition, extended the committee an invitation
to attend that exhibition, and while they
will be unable to attend In body the major
ity will probably make visit there to-day
Or Monday.

VISITORS TO THE PITTsBURG EXPO
SITION
Can Make $50 Clear.

Last year it cost us upward OF 1000 to
exhibit at the opening Exposition. We
have been kept so terribly busy this sum-
mer, however. in selling our pianos and
organs and banjos and mandolins and
guitars and brass horns and sheet music.
that we actually found no time to get up an
exhibit Tor this years show. However, we
propose to give our customers the benefit of
this great saving, so that any one who will
buy piano or organ, or any other instru-
ment, during the continuance of the fair
will get the benefit Of an extra reduction in
price of goods of and 10 per cent. Visitors
to the show can therefore make some $50 bv
calling on II. Kleber & Bro IS Music Store,
5O6 Wood street, and buying one of their
instruments. They are the sole agents for
the famous Steinway, Conover, Gabler,
Opera and Emerson pianos. also for the
wonderful Vocation church organs, and the
mouse-and-dust-proof Earhutf parlor or

Showing of the Registry Book at the Car
negie Library Building.
The Carnegie Library building catches a
great many of the visitors who come to this
city, and there is ona continual throng of
them present. A glance over the register
shows that 1t is a majority OF the people
from the smaller cities OF this and adjoining
States that visit the building. On Thursday
there were 21O registered, and yesterday
there were nearly as many. As hardly one
third of the visitors register, one can i'm
agine the coming and going at all hours OF
the day. Those on duty in the building are
kept constantly on the watch. Many small
articles are found and returned to the owners
when they call.
The reading rooms are growing more
popular daily, and are always well filled
with young men. Robert Pyeatte, of ALLIE
gheny, has presented the library with a set
of six volumes of Malte- Bruins geography.
Librarian Stevenson has received an invita-
tion to become member OF proposed State

UP TO THEIR EYES IN WORK.

Secretaries of the Independents Busy Ham
ding the List of Recruits.
The Secretary OF the Independent Repub-
lican organization and his assistants in the
Bissell block, Smithfeld street, were again
up to their eyes in work yesterday answer
ing correspondence. They reported that an
influential old-lIne Republican had brought
in list of 300 well-known Republicans who
mad positively pledged themselves to vote
for Pattison. Later in the day another
equally influential Republican brought in
another list of 100 names, and the secretary
said that another of 200 was expected to-
day.
That the movement is causing anxiety in
some quarters is evidenced by the fact of
several old liners, who run with the machine
first, last and all the time, have called at
intervals during the past two days for the
purpose of taking soundings.

FROM
10 to % Per Cent
10 to 20 Per Cent.

There is no longer a doubt
about Carpets and Curtains
advancing in price. The man.

the figures up.
We purchased a much larger
stock for the Fall trade than
we would have done had the
advance in prices not been
threatened, and will dispose of
the entire line at the prices
made at the opening of the
season.
Hotel keepers and others
who contemplate refurnishing
during the present Fall or
coming Winter will save
money by getting in on this
importation-the next lot will
sell from 10 to IS per cent
higher.
