The annual reunion Of the One Hundred
and Second (old Thirteenth) Regiment will

Wednesday, August II. Cards have been
sent out to the survivors by the Secretary,
D. A. Jones, Of the Assessors Office, and it is
expected that there will be present goodly
number OF the old boys and their families.

companies being entirely from this city.

tinued in active service until the close of
the war, and participated in nea rly all the
battles in which the Army of the Potomac
was engaged. The details are in charge of
a local committee, of which Major James A.
McLa ughlin, of the Allegheny City Health

THEATRICAL GOSSIP.

HARRIS THEArER is actually closed for this
week ior cleaning and repairs.
TIM crowded houses at the Bjou Theater
seem to indicate that there is q decided de-
mand Tor summer theatricalS.
GEORGE C. JENKs is press agent and house
manager for tile Biiou Theater and a better
man couldn't be found for the place.
THE new labor play Underground" which
illustrates mining life in Pennsylvania, is
the one in which Hugh O'Donnell has been
offered O position as star. 1t is said to
contain a number OF sensational effect snever
seen hitherto. The play will be produced
at the Bijou Monday, August 10.
THERE'S a new play and popular star as
the Bijou Theater this week. Miss Kennedy
is to appear on Monday in "She Couldn's
Marry Three" The central figure in "She
Couldn't Marry Three" Is n little fisher girl,
Bess Brandon, which is played with wonder
full fidelity and force by Miss Lillian Kenne-
dy it is said. This young actress is rapidly
forging to the front, and in this part is said
to excel anything she has hitherto attempt
ed. The play tells the story of young girl
who is forced to make choice from among
three lovers. One of the rejected takes the
blow gracefully and remains true friend
to the girl who has won his heart, but who
cannot give her heart in return The other
rejected suitor tries to take cowardly re-
venge upon the gentle but high spirited
maiden whom he has vainly tried to make
his wife. He is able for time to separate
her from her husband, but at last his cruel
plot is thwarted. The climax comes with
his attempt to throw Bess' husband under
the wheels of an express train. Bess saves
her husband however, and the villain pays
the penalty with his life. This is n most e1-
citing situation, for real passenger engine
dashes across the stage under full headway
with a train of cars few seconds after Bess
has performed her heroic rescue. There
will be two matinees.

Some suspicion has been aroused concern
ing Comrade BRYANT. the colored orator and
ex-slave, of st. Louis. who was in Pittsburg
and vicinity recently collecting money for
. monument commemorating the enancipa-
tion OF the slaves to be erected on the
grounds Of the Worlds Fair in Chicago.
The foundation for this suspicion seems
rather unstable to a large number OF COW
rades who are satisfied that .Comrade
Bryant is o. K. The credentials
furnished by Comrade BRYANT when he was
here were so satisfactory that no one
doubted his straightness.
He had copy of the charter of the
organization formed in st. Louis which in
tends to erect the monument, plan OF the
monument and paper giving him authority
to collect money in the name OF the
organization. This organization has no
connection with the Worlds Fair beyond
the fact that it intends to ask the Exposition
authorities for space upon which to erect
the monument. Department headquarters
are now Investigating the ma ter and COM
rade Bryant's status will not long remain in
doubt,
