WOUND UP WITH A SOCIAL.

Second Days Proceedings Of the Mute Con.
vention-strong Pleas Made for the Es-
tabIishment of Home-Compulsory Ed-
ucation Demanded for the Denf.
The second days convention of the deaf
and dumb wound up with pleasant soiree
at the institute in Edgewood. A number
of invited guests were present and most
happy occasion was enjoyed by all pres
ent. The committee in charge was
B. R. Allabough, g. M. Teegarden,
Archibald Woodside, Mrs. ]. c. Balls and Miss
Christina Scherger. The toasts were as fol-
lows: "ourr Institutions" Rev. J. 9. Brown;

tutions." G; NJ; Teegarden. teacher Western

Thomas Breen; THE Home Fund.-" Archibald

At the afternoon session it was decided to
locate the home for aged and infirm mutes
within SO miles of Harrisburg. Rev. j. II.
Cloud delivered an address on compulsory edu-
cation. He argued that such a law should be
passed in this State.
P. NJ. Whelan. teacher in the Philadelphia
Catholic School, made brief address and was
well received.
In the morning Bishop Whitehead opened the
proceedings with an eloquent prayer which
was translated. DR.. r. b. Allabough, Super
visor of the Institute at Edgewood, then made
his address on The Home Project" He said
mutes were capable of self-support He re-
GREETED that the deaf and dumb were exempt
from the tramp law. though the
mutes had tried hard to have the
act changed. There are some aged deaf and
dumb in the State, and home should be pro-
vided for them. He objected to placing them
in almshouses because they are not well re-
ceived by the hearing inmates and managers.
H e proposed. in conclusion, that the number of
Home fund trustees should be increased to
nine to properly represent the State, but the
deaf ones should be in the majority.
A series of resolutions were presented asking
that charter for the Home be applied for,
and that seven trustees be elected

TROUBLE ABOUT TAXES.
Landlords Advised TO See That Tenants
Pay Their Water Rent-The Deliuqueui
List to be Published In Abour N Month.

Landlords Advised TO See That Tenants
Pay Their Water Renr-The Deliuqueur
List to be Published In About n Month.
The delinquent tax list has been pre-
pared, and will be published some time be-
tween August 1 and Is. All persons
whose name appears on the list will be re-
qu1red to pay the per cent DELINQUENT
addition and the cost of advertising.
A great change mas been made In the
assessment of taxes. Last year water rents
were charged to the owners Of the property.
Under the McNeill bill the water rents or any
other taxes can become a lien against property.
The assessors have in nearly every case changed
the water taxes of tenants to the owners of the
property. This has caused a great deal Of
annoyance to the property owners who have
stipulated agreements with the tenants that
the latter will pay the water rent. The Water
Assessor charges up the whole amount of tax
to the landlord. and some tenants not knowing
better pay no attention to the water rent until
it becomes delinquent.
Where all the water taxes used
by his tenants are charged mp against land
lord, the matter will cause the most trouble.
In the Third ward, Delinquent Tax Collector
Ford has case where S75 water taxes. which
should have been paid by the tenant, has been
charged up against the landlord. The latter
refuses to pay, claiming that he has no more
right to pay for q tenants water than he should
for the gas used IN the house. and the tenant
cannot pay the $40 because it is not charged up
against him. The only way out of 1t is TO have
the tenant pay the amount TO the landlord and
the latter could turn it over to the City Treas
urer. In all probability lien will be filed
against the building. The city protests itself
by holding the property responsible for the
water used, no matter whether there is an
agreement between the landlord and the
tenant

DEATH FROM SUNSTROKE.
An Allegheny Woman Dies From the Effects
OF the Hent-Other Cases That May be
Fatal-It VIII be Cooler To-day.


Of the Heat-Other Cases That May be
Fntal-It VIII be Cooler To-day.
Yesterday was another nice natural-gas-
puddling-furnace day, and the fiend who
asks you If it's hot enough was out in his
glory and seersucker suit. It was not the
hottest day of the year, but it was the most
fatal in its effects. About half dozen cases
of overcome by the heat were reported. One
victim died and there is slight hopes for the
recovery of another.
The highest point reached by the ther-
mometer was $50. One year ago yesterday it
registered $50 and the day following it was 800.
The indications for to-day are that it will be
cooler: The rain yesterday forenoon some
what cooled off the atmosphere, but within an
hour after the rain had ceased falling, the at
mosphere was worse than ever.
An aged lady named Mrs. Hesban was pros
trated by the heat and died at her home at No.
70 West Market street, Allegheny
Another lady named Mrs. Campbell was
prostrated at her home at Washington and
and Western avenues. Allegheny, but 1t Is
thought she will recover.
An Italian employed as track laDorer on
the Pennsylvania Railroad was overcome by
the heat while at work in the yards at the
Union depot. He was taken to the West Penn
Hospital in a very critical condition. At late
hour last night he was still raving in del1rium,
and his name had not been learned. Ills re-
covery is very doubtful.
An aged German lady was overcome by the
heat on an immigrant train on the Pennsyl-
yania Railroad. She was taken from the train
at the Union depot and medical aid summoned.
Her name is not known. as She was delIrious
the Fatherland to friends in the West. She
was kept at the depot.
