NOT PAYING so BIG.
The Exposition, Financially, Falls
Below the Last Season.
SEVERAL IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED.
Competitive Plans of the Carnegie Library
to Be Shown.
D0INGS OF A DAY ABOUT A BUSY CITY

Tonight the Pittsburg Exposition will
close until the season of 1892. Big crowds
are expected for the last day. The attend
ance of the past few days has been larger
than at any time during the season, owing
chiefly to the railroad excursions from sur
rounding towns. City visitors have not
been plentiful owing to the expected crowds
from other places. The number of visitors
during the closing days is not known, as the
management positively declines to give any
figures on that subject But it has been
very large.
Taken as a whole, the Exposition this
year has not been the success anticipated,
and financially it falls below last season.
The estion now bothering the minds OF
the management is whether there will be
enough money to carry out several proposed
plans for Improving the institution. An
increase in the capacity of the buildings has
become a necessity.
The association has ground for an annex,
but is not certain as to the means for build
ing it. Manager Johnston was asked last
nigh whether or not the season just closing
had demonstrated the need of any improve
ments.
''Yes, it has, he replied. tThe society
has plenty of places to put its money to ad-
vantage. In the first place more room is
needed for exhibits. This can only be Sc
cured by building an annex on the river
side. The association owns plot of ground
there S0x300 feet. This can be used for ad-
ditional building whenever there is money
enough to carry the plan out. I cannot say
whether there will be enough this year or
not. Another necessity shown by this sea-
son is more seating capacity for those who
wish to hear the music. This, of course,
would encroach on the exhibits and would
necessitate other quarters for them.
'The Exposition has been a success this
year, but moi SO much so as was expected.
Financially it has not been so good as last
year But we are not complaining at all,
and are confident of providing still better
attractions for the public in 1892. The
number of people attending, the receipts
and expenditures and other details will not
be made public until the board so directs. "

TO EXHIBIT THE PLANS.


The Public to Get q Look at the Drawings
for the Carnegie Library.
The Pittsburg Carnegie Library Commits
sion has decided to give an exhibition of
the plans of the new structure being pre-
pared by prominent architects from all
parts of the United States. James B. Scott,
president of the commission, when seen yes
terday, said it had been decided some time
ago to place the plans on exhibition, as had
been done with the County Court House and
the Allegheny Carnegie Library building.
The plans are all to be in by November, and
the commission will then take up the work of
examination. Rooms will be secured either
in the new Ferguson building or some
other suitable block. If they are not large
enough to hold all the plans, the best will
be selected and placed on exhibition for the
benefit of all desiring to see them.
Mr.. Scott said it was impossible to pay
every one who would make plan. The
commission have decided to take the
next six best ones after the one
selected and give a cash prize of
$1,000 TO each of the architects, as
an incentive for good work The architects
go to great deal of expense and trouble to
make the plans and the commission hit
upon this plan in order to insure good work
from everyone.
Mr.. Scott concluded by repeating that it
was not definitely settled just where the ex-
hibition would take place, but if satisfactory
arrangements could be made with Mr..
Ferguson it would in all probability be in
that building. but he could not say posi-
lively as he had not seen Mr.. Ferguson for
q month

FIGHT OVER A PAIR OF PONIES.
They Are Finally Sold by Police Superin-
tendent Weir

They Are Finally Sold by Police Superin-
tendent Weir.
Police Superintendent Weir yesterday
sold at public sale pair of Shetland ponies
and small wagon, which had been picked
up estray by Inspector Whitehouse, in the
East End, about five weeks ago The outfit
only brought S16S, but that is considered a
good figure. The money realized will be
held by the city until suit now pending in
court relative to the team is decided.
Cyrus Poole, a saloonkeeper of Franks
town avenue, was the original owner of the
team, and about two months ago sold it,
with the wagon. to Albert Bertalott, the
Liberty street wholesale liquor dealer.
After he got possession of the ponies Berta-
lott declared one of them had been misrepre-
sented to him and sent them back to Poole.
Poole declared Bertalott had foundered one
of the animals after they had been delivered
to him, so Poole. drove them back to Berta-
lott. This sort of thing was kept up, and
finally the team was turned loose on the
street and was taken up by Inspector
Whjtehouse
The ponies have been kept in the stables of
the police department ever since, and last
week Superintendent Weir decided that it
would not pay to keep and feed them any
longer. He warned both Poole and Berta-
lott of his intention to sell the ponies unless
they were reclaimed by the owner. Neither
of the interested persons would claim them,
and, suit having been entered, the matter
there rests.

long, Superintendent Weir is confident of
catching him before many days.

A TRAVELLING MOUNTAIN.

The Mighty Mass of Basalt That Seems In
tent on Damming the Columbia.
Goldthwaite's Geographical Magazne.l
A travelling mountain is found at the Cas-
cades of the Columbia. 1t is triple-peaked
mass of dark brown basalt, six or eight miles
in length where it fronts the river, and
rises to height of almost 2, 2,000feet above the
water. That it is in motion is the last
thought which would be likely to suggest
itself to the mind of any one passing it, vet
it is we'll established fact that this entire
mountain is moving slowly but steadily down
to the river, as if it had deliberate pur-
pose some time in the future to dam the
Columbia and form great lake from the Cas-
cades to the Dalles- The Indian traditions
indicate immense movements of the
mountains in that region long before white
men came to Oregon, and the early settlers
Immigrants many of them from New Eng
land-gave the above described mountain
GUS ridge the name of travelling" or slid
ing mountain.
In its forward and downward movement
the forests along the base of the ridge have
become submerged in the river. Large
tree sGumps can be seen standing deep in
the water on this shore. The railway en-
gineers and the brakemen find that the line
of the railway which skirts the foot of the
mountain is being continually forced out of
place. At certain points the permanent
way and rails have been pushed eight or
ten feet out of the line in few years. Ge-
ologists attribute this strange phenomenon
to the fact that the basalt, which consti-
tutes the bulk of the mountain, rests on
substratum of conglomerate or of soft sand
stone, which the deep, swift current of the
mighty river is constantly wearing away or
that this softer subrock. is of itself yielding
a. great depths to the enormous weight of
the harder mineral above.

Judge j. P Fawcett, Of Canton, o., who

to be the only uncertain element in the
contest, and that movement does not cut

that his boat was booked tc leave New York

wanted to eros. the bridge some one grasped
him and demanded cent. The prisoner
said he demanded the mans name, and was

THE MULTIPLE ECHOES.
Remarkable Repetitions of Sound in Vari-
Gus Parts of the World.

Remarkable Repetitions of Sound in Vari-
Gus Parts of the World.
The multiple echoes, which repeat the
same word or tones several times. are among
the most wonderful of their class. An echo
of this kind in the chateau of Simonetta, in
Italy, repeats a note so times; at Wood
stock, in England, there is one which re-
peats from II to 20 svllahles; and remark
ably fine echo occurs beneath the suspension
bridge across the Menai Strait in Wales,
which returns the sound of blow with a
hammer on the pier in succession from each
OF the crossbeams that support the roadway,
and from the opposite pier, at a distance of
SIC feet: and in addition to this the sound
is many times repeated between the water
and the roadway, the whole effect of the
series being most peculiar.
In the whispering gallery of st. Paul's,
London, the faintest sound is conveyed
from one side to the other of the dome; and
in the Cathedral of Girgenti, in Sicily, the
slightest whisper is borne with perfect dis
tinctness from the great western door,
where the old confessional used to be, to
the high altar, distance of 25O feet The
echoes of the Lake of Killarney are also
world famous.

LINES OUT EoR SHARKS
How the Fishermen Amuse Themselves
When Business Gets Dull.

How the Fishermen Amuse Themselves
When Business Gets Dull.
Harper's Young People.l
If cod, halibut, or haddock are scarce, the
Fishermen say, "Let US try for sharks y
But, of course, fishing for sharks ten and
twelve feet long in small boat would be
dangerous, SO it is only from the fishing
smacks of thirty to fifty tons that the lines
are put out. There is great excitement on
board fishing boat when the shark lines
gr out, for every man is afraid of the beast
that he wants to capture. Very often large
sharks remain for days at time near fish
ing boat, eating the Gods heads, sounds,
bones and entrails thrown overheard, and it
is known that they are there, because they
are constantly thrusting their black fins
above water. ,
If the fishermen know that the sharks
are near the surface, they put piece of
cork on the line close to the hook, which is
baited with about a quarter of pound of
fat pork; the hook is thrown as far as pos
sible in the direction of the wind or tide,
and then allowed to drift The shark sees
the pork, comes stealthily up to it, then
turns on his back, and bolts bait. hook and

he dives and swims off at great
speed, the fisherman paying out
line to him gradually. When at last it is so
tired that it can resist no more, it is drawn
to the side of the boat and pulled to the
surface when the fishermen stick gaffs into
its body, and put two or three half bitches
of rope round its head. The fish is often so
large that it has to be hoisted aboard by a
block and tackle, but as soon as it finds that
it is being lifted out of the water it strug-
giles and thrashes violently with its tail.
When put upon the deck it founders and
fops with such violence that the fishermen
are often afraid to go near it.
