SLOW Passenger Business.

The Lake Erie road sold six round trip
tickets to Los Angeles yesterday. General
Passenger Agent Clark says the Pacific
coast business is dull, but he thinks it will
improve little about the holidays. While
a great many people spend the winter in
California the number is not so large as in
former years The steamship companies
are also complaining of slow traffic. The
vessels are crossing the ocean only half
filled. Were it not for the Italians and
Hungarians going to Europe, the steerage
also would be very light. The coal bust
ness}last season was not large, owing to the
strike, and the Hooking Valle= got the
cream of the traffic to the lakes

SQUIRRELS FOR THE PARKS.
Robert Arthurs Will stock the Breathing
Places of the Two Cities

ROBERT ArthurS w Ill STOCK fne breathing
Places of the Two Cities
Robert Arthurs, President of the Fifth
National Bank, seems disposed to restore
Squirrel Hill to its ''pristinetv" as far as
possible. Mr.. Arthurs is in Memphis at
;ending lawsuit in which the name of
Jake Hill appears, a name once very famil-
lar to the readers OF court trial lists in this
city. Seeing so many squirrels in Tennes-
see brought back Mr. Arthur's boyhood
warnings and made him think of Squirrel
Hill in the days when the plentiful supply
of that kind of game gave it its name, so he
conceived the idea of seeding Schenley Park
with them. 1t is also said that he viii put a
considerable number of squirrels into the
Allegheny parks. They are one of the
rleasantest features of Druid Park In Bal
f;more, where they have learned to know
that no bad boy dare throw a stone at them,
and their gambols afford much relaxation to
those oppressed with business cares
There is one contingency in the case,
however. While awaiting for the lawsuit
to come 10 trial Mr.. Arthurs has gone bear
hunting, and there is a remote possibility
that, should the bears decide to hunt Mr..
A!thurs. his project Of colonization might
be interfered with.

MAYOR WYMAN's DEFENSE.
His Honor said TO he Hiding Behind a Wall
of Technicalities

MAJOR Wvman's attorneys, it is said, will
attempt TO have the proceedings against His
Honor quashed at tn hearing next Friday
on the ground that the charges are not
specific. If they succeed in this, leading
members nf the Reform Association state
that other charges will at once be brought
and the evidence made so clear that there
Eill ae no other course except to hold the
case for court This intention of the Mayor
TO take advantage of all Iechnicalities that
The complications of law offer is claimed by
some TO indicate that the defense will insist
that everything debarred by the statute of
limitations shall not be heard. The reform
ers have been acting on the assumption that
sbe Mavor wants a vindication, and that he
would not take advantage of technicalities.
One of the charges that will be shut out is
that of Koerner, in which Mr. Wyman is
claimed to have received tribute from H. o.
Price 6 Co. It is the most sensational that
has as yet been brought out. The reformers
claim, however, that if the case cannot
be tried the facts will all be brought out in
the shape OF afidavits.

Alaska
Seal

DYED BY MARTIN,

The celebrated London Dyer, is the
only article good enough for our gar
ments-whether Mufs, Capes, Jack.
cts, Goats or listers, and is the only
kind that buyers who know will take,
however tempting the price. Copper
Isle Seals or cheap dyes are not
given quarters in our Fur Depart
ment. The only reason why is that
they are not good property, either for
you or for US.
Now, for the real Alaska Seal and
the real Martin (London) Dye, we
guarantee that our prices will not be
matched elsewhere for many dollars
more.
