Protecting Silver from furnishing.

Tt is worth while knowing that silver
articles put away for time can be pro-
tected from furnishing. According to The
Decorator and Furnisher this can be done
by applying to them, with soft brush,
collodion mixed with alcohol. IL silver
plate is already tarnished, its full bril-
lance may be restored by washing it in
liquid potassia, next rinsing it in warm
water and then immersing it in liquid
composed of one part of alum, one part
of common salt and two parts of salt
peter in three parts of water. The plate
has now to be washed in luke warm
water, then wiped with chamois leather
and finally packed in sawdust to dry

Watches with covers of light enamel or

worn in Paris with outdoor summer toilets.
A leghorn hat with crown covered with
wide muslin, piquet of ostrich tips and
pink ribbon bow completes the costume.
Among attractive fabrics much seen in
midsummer toilets are the white lawns
dotted with flower or fruit sprays in their
natural coloring. There is renewed liking
shown also for sheer airy linen batistes in
tan or ecru. This. however, must be made
up over silk.
At evening receptions in country and
watering places lowered silk, muslin and
lace represent a popular and handsome
style. These are simply made with straight
skirt and lace founce, lace basque and
draped corsage.
Plaids of pink and green, blue and brown
or other combinations, formed by the cross
ing of waved stripes, are seen in some of
the latest foulards. Stripes in soft colors,
such as china blue and pink, are also liked
in white lawn, to be trimmed with white
lace.
Very large sleeves which droop from the
top, but fit closely below the elbow and are
banked with many rows of baby ribbon,
are feature of some French costumes.

GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF TIE DAY

Another American Association PLAYER
Joined the ranks of the National League
Yesterday, and he signed Pittsburg club
contract. His name is Reilly, and he was a
member of the Columbus club. The fact of
his signing was announced by telegram to
President O'Neill yesterday afternoon by
Manager Hanlon. The latter signed him.
He will play third base for the local club.
Reilly, it is understood, is a Princeton
graduate, and is considered fine fielder
and good hitter. Mark Baldwin and Ed
Swartwood speak highly of his abilities.
Referring to him yesterday, BALDWIN said:
"I'll never forget Reilly's first appearance
in the Columbus club. 1t was on Thurs
day, the day on which baud played in the
Columbus grounds. The first time Reilly
went to bat he yanked the ball clean over
the fence for home run. That, of course,
delighted the crowd, but did not send them
wild. The second time he went to bat he
again tnumped the leather over the lett field
fence for another homer, and then the band
played That's Mr.. Reilly Who Keeps the
Hotel Why, everybody yelled. Reilly is
a good player" e.
Word was also received in the city yesterday
to the effect that Jim Fogarty had agreed to
sign. 1t is, therefore, likely that he will put
his name 10 contract as soon as he receives
his advance money, which will probably be to-
day. President O'Neill Is certain that one or
two more first-class men will be signed to-day
or tomorrow. Referring to Shiudle. the Presi-
dent said that all League clubs had agreed TO
keep their hands off him to give Pbiladel
phla a chance. Altogether it is safe TO say that
as lar as signing good players is concerned
PlttSburg is doing as well as anybody, as much
quiet work is being done which will have some
effect later on.

LEEDS TURNED DOWN.
THE FIGHT AGAINST HIM HAS BEEN A
SUCCESSFUL ONE.

Maginns' Appointment to the Marshalship
Refuses to Be Placated by the Colnpro-
mise Promise of Consulate.
rFRoM STAFF CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-The appoint
ment of United States Marshal for the East
ern district OF PENNSYLVANIA has been finally
determined upon, and William r. Leeds
may as well school himself TO receive the
disappointing blow in as Christian spirit
as he possibly can. Attorney General
Miller said this morning that the appoint
ment had been decided upon by the Presi
dent. and that all Jurisdiction had passed
from the Department OF Justice to the
Executive Mansion. 1t is not generally
known that the antipathy to Leeds does not
emanate from the White House, but is
being urged b. 4 Cabinet officer
President Harrison has been argued with
and talked with until he agreed to COM
promise the situation, and he offered to ap-
point Leeds to a consulate If he would with
draw from the race. This was about week
ago, and he made this statement to some gen.
tlemen who were urging Leeds appointment
FOR the Marshalship but he declined to state
what kind or where the consulate would be:
Leeds was consulted and he fatty refused to
accept the compromise. and said i'll explana-
tion that If his personal and political record
was such as would admit of his appointment 10
a Consulate it woul'l stand for his appointment
to q Federal office in Philadell hia. and as the
fight against him appeared to be waged entirely
upon this issue. he would remain for either vic
tory defeat
1t is definitely known that the President has
turned down Mr.. Leeds, and the appointment
will in all probability be given to MagniD, of
Delaware county. but it is thought that it will
not be made until after Congress adjourns.

pointment made this morning for the Postmas.

that a negro named James Hill was the contest

eTal Catchings was seen concerning the appoint
ment and lie spoke as follows:
Hill is not even citizen of Vicksburg. He
has heretofore lived in Jackson, But, of course,
he now claims Vicksburg as his home although
he is not a taxpayer and does no, own a dollars
worth of property in that State. He is simply
political tramp. His appointment is an in.
fernal outrage. 1t was for a double purpose
to humllIate the white people of Vicksburg.

Hill could turn HIM over the Mississippi dele

PRESENTATION OF DOROTHY.
The New Opera Deserves All the Success II
Has Achieved.

That the unparalleled success of Cellier and
Stephenson's comedy opera, Dorothy" has
been well deserved will readily be understood
after its first rendition in Pitrsburg last even
ing at the Grand Opera House by the Duff
Opera Company. The libretto is smooth, the
humor is unctuous, the lyrics are fairly sing
able and the situations are amusing. The
story is Martha" or "She Stoops to Conquer
reduced to an operatic form neither bouffe,
comique mes comic. but comedy. 1t would be a
pure dramatic comedy without the exquisite
musical setting which Alfred Cellier has pro.
V1ded. The forms of music in which this
brilliant rival of Sir Arthur Sullivan trains his
fancy are direct and well considered
He evidently believe in making prominent the
melodlous, and does not indulge in the usual
smothering of arias by the gingerbread gyra-
tIons of orchestral instruments which such
composers as MIllocker and Solomon deem
necessary to cover harmonic badness. Messrs.
Bassett, Mclaughlin and cambridge all had
excellent opportunities in vocaliZatiop, of
which they took advantage. Mr.. Mackay was
marvelously funny as Sheriff's bailiff mixed
up in society by the mutations of o
Sheriff's writ upon an impecunious
nobl eman. He was perfect in his as
sumption of a fashionable jag. Miss Marie
Tempest was very graceful and sang with
force and correct information. but her voice
does not electrity except occasionally. The
opera, however, IS a rare product OF the modern
school of writers, and is well worth both seeing
and hearing. In parting q word is due Nessrs,
DUN and Wilt for costumes and accessories.

Fithian Passes Some sighting Remarks
About Cannon's Face.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26-At the evening ses-
sion the House proceeded in committee OF the
whole to the further consideration of the gen.
eral deficiency appropriation bill. Mr.. Sayers.
of Texas moved to strike out the paragraph
appropriating the necessary amount for the
payment to the Pacific railroads for services
performed for the Government Mr.. Grain op-
posed the amendment, and Mr.. Dalzel, OF
Pennsylvania, supported the proposition to
strike out, addressing his remarks especially
against the Central Pacific Company. and as
serting that the company was not only in
solvent, but frauduiently insolvent
Mr.. Mc1kenna, of California, opposed the
amendment. The Union Pacific road had been
paid for precisely the same kind OF service
rendered by the Central Pacific. Both roads
we're bankrupt. To pay one and not the other
was fragrant discrimination.
After considerable debate an alteration took
place between Mr. Cannon and Mr. Fithian, in
the course of which Mr.. Fithian said that he
would not have his face published in the papers,
as the gentleman's had been, TO which Mr..
Cannon retorted that ne had sufficient character
to defend him against such assaults. There
was much confusion in the House, but uitl-
mately the motion to Strike out was agreed to,
147 to 63
The committee then rose. and the deficiency
bill passed.

PROF. HERMAN DEAD.

Sudden Demise of a WeII-Known Man
A Once Unfrocked Priest Who Re-
canted Before His Death and Received
the Last Rites of His Church.
Prof. P. G. Herman, the well-known
music teacher, died yesterday morning at
7O5 Penn avenue. Ten years ago ne was a
Catholic priest, and had charge of con-
gregation at Uniontown and later at
Waynesburg. At the latter place he was un-
frocked for irregularities in 1852
DR.. Rossman, his attending physician. was
seen last evening, and stated that Prof. Her
mans death was due to erysipelas and heart
failure. When the physician was first called
in last Saturday the. Professor was suffering
from tonsilitis. and erysiDelas set in on Mon
day.
.'fhe last two days of his life" said the doc
tor, Miss Huber. professional nurse and a
friend of the Professors, and Mr.. Gould. a STU
dent of mine, were in constant attendance, and
Miss Huber was with him when he died.
rGmor that the professor committed suicide,
or that he died unattended, is false"
The doctor also stated that there were strong
symptoms of cerebritis, and that blood poison
ing had set in.
His death was due to a complication of the
diseases" continued the physician, "and TO
heart failure and exhaustion caused by the
ertion OF making his will; which he was not in
fit condition to do. When l discovered what
had been done on my second visit, on
Wednesday. 1 ordered the attendants not to
permit any person to talk to the patient, and if
anyone attempted to do so, to nave them re-
moved from the house. as it was very danger
GUS to him and might cause his DEATH" Miss
Huber was seen at her residence, corner South
Twenty-irst and Jane Streets last evening, and
corroborated Dr. Rossman's statement in re-
gard to her being present when the professor
died. A short time before he died his pulse
was strong but about oclOck he began TO
sink rapidly, and passed away about 4'SO
o'clock.
Said Miss Huber: II feel rather hurt at the
report that the professor committed suicide, as
it reflects on me personally. as professional
nurse"
Father McTighe stated last evening that the
professor. shortly before his death, had re-
canted and wished his recantatlon made public
upon his demise. He was then received back
info the Church. and the last rites of the
Church were administered TO him.
