| from a fine woman" Ada remarked
| that she herself would never consent ID
be taken in so unbecoming a costume,
zone might as well have no figure at all
in things hanging down for all the
| world like a sack" she said.
Proceeding to details, she was struck
| by the smallness of the hands; and il
must be admitted that, although the
statue as wholewas slightly above the
average female height, the arms from
the elbow downward, and particularly
the hands, were by no means in proper
ton, and almost justified Miss Parkin-
sons objection, that "no woman could
have hands so small as that"
II know some one who has-quite as
small, " said he softly.
Ada instantly drew off one of the
crimson gloves and held cut her hand
beside the statues. 1t was well-shaped
hand, as she very well knew, but it was
decidedly larger than the one with
which she compared it. 81 said so" she
observed; now are you satisfied, Mr..
Tweddle?"
But he had been thinking of a hand
more slender and dainty than hers, and
allowed himself to admit as much. II
i wasn't meaning you at all, he said
bluntly.
She laughed little EARRING laugh.
ooh, Matilda, of course! Nobody is
like Matilda now! But come, Mr.
Tweddle, you're not going to stand there
and tell me that this wonderful Matilda
of yours has hands no bigger than
those?"
"She has been endowed with quite
remarkable small hands,, said he; "you
wouldn't believe it without seeing. 1t

of our being engaged, nothing would do

He took out the ring from it's bed Of
pink cotton wool, and offered it to Miss
Parkinson.
"Sou see if you can get it on" he
said; TRY the little finger" She drew
back offended. ~ don't want to try it,

might fling it into the bushes if she
allowed herself to touch it). "If you
must try it on somebody, there's the

FIRST PREsBY TERRAIN CHURCH.
Re-Opening Services Held in the Hand
some Sanctuary.


There were two large congregations
assembled at the First Presbyterian
church Yesterday, the occasion in the
morning being the reopening exercises
upon the completion of the repairs and
the handsome new fixtures. The in
terror is now one OF the
most attractive in the city. The
church is lighted by electricity
throughout, and in the evening the new
furnishings, the metal ceiling, the
handsome stained glass windows and
the finish Of the woodwork looked In
deed resplendent. Upon the pulpit Is a
study lamp, the electric rays being
thrown upon the Book or manuscript
nv means of an adjustable reflector.
The entire cost of the furnishings was
defrayed yesterday morning by direct
contributions and personal pledges.
The pastor, Rev. d. A. Cunningham
nreached, taking for his text In the
morning: Psalm PA; Zone thing have
Idesired of the Lord, that will seek
after; that I may dwell in the house OF
the Lord all the days of my life, to De-
hold the beauty Of the Lord, and TO IN
ouire in His temple" The subject DIS
cussed in the sermon waS,-"The De-
sirableness of the House Of the Lord"
aftar which the following
statement was made. "Surely.
as pastor and people we
have much for which to praise the
Lord. During the sixteen years OF the
present pastorate there have been add
ed to the membership of the church, by
certificate and confession OF faith, six
hundred and eighty-one persons, making
an average OF forty-two per year. The
largest addition was last year, it being
seventy-seven. Eighty-six adults have
been baptized, and three hundred aud
forty-shree infants. The living mem
bership of the church, April LIST, 1892,
the beginning of the ecclesiastical year,
was six hundred"

To the Editor Oftbs Register:
SIR-Mr. s. G.. Smith came here from
Hancock county to try to learn law. He
has hardly gotten good and warm in his
new home till he makes q break for an
Office. He wants TO get into the Legis-
laJure, so as to be able to vote for FL
kins, in order 20 have a little revenge
because Goff. did not give his father an
appointment.
Smith has been posing as the work
ingman's especial friend. He made a
speech TO that effect, some time since, l
am informed. I happen to know lit
tie bit Of his labor record, both at home
and abrOad-or rather, in Wheeling
and I know his professions for US are as
hypocritical as they could be. think
he works the Prohibition racket when
the opportunity offers. There is no
ground, whatever, for a Republican
workingman to vote for Smith, and l
feel sure that none claiming to be Dem
Ocrats will be so foolish as to throw a
vote away on Smith.
Respectfully, WoRKINGMAN.

Raw DIR. RIker Deprecates Cards, Thea

Tbera was large attendance at the
Eon-tb street Methodist church last
evening, many being drawn thither 10
hear the opening of series OF sermons
ON the popular amusements OF the Gay
az discoursed upon by the pastor, heV'
DR.. Riker.
The pastor started out by saying that
toucbing upon the prevailing amuse-
ments of the young it was a delicate and
difscnlt task. The church believes In
certain Measures when reasonably In
dnlged in. and favors the young getting
all the wholesome enjoyment they can
ont of life. But the church draws the
line on all amusements tending to
disregard of Christian conduct anu
also those pleasures that make US
further removed in thought from the
religiouo work. To be sure there Is
nothing in the Bible against caro- play
ing. dancing or theater going. Sui
the right and wrong Of 1t appeals to
every rational being. Suppose there
was no law instltuting quarantine
against the invasion Of disease would
not the public duty be apparent to
EVERYONE? In the exercise OF social
pleasures we too often neglect our re-
Iigious work, and thought of the church
gradually lessons. Suppose four or five
of us ministers here in town
sbould get together in some
room, gather around table and
have a quiet game of cards. There
would be nothing especially wrong in
it, but how soon would we lose our in
fuence? And think of the example we
would set! And what would you say OF
such performance.
The discourse of last evening was not
on any specific amusement, but was
more in the nature of preliminary dis
course to subjects he will consider more
In detail on the following three Sun
days. The subject next Sunday will be
Dancing" then will follow card
Playing" and then Theatres.

Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-11-23
|. srEREorYpEp PosTPoNEMENr.

The decision of the Pennsylvania d.
rectors to spend s., 100000 in carrying out
their four-track plan is satisfactory in one
aspect. 1t shows that the managers Of
that corporation are not, as was reported
some months ago, adopting the unwise
policy of discharging men and suspending
| improvements On the other hand, their
course adopts the policy which The DIS
PATCH has constantly urged, of preparing
the improvements and increase OF IA
cilitles in advance of the time when they
are needed.
On the other hand there is a feature of
the improvements which is typical Of the
course that corporation is but too apt to
adopt toward the city which makes the
most material contributions to its traffic.
Two million dollars are to be spent in in
creasing facilities; but with regard to the
improvements needed in this city we re-
ceive the usual and almost stereotyped
assurance that they will come later on.
This persistent ignoring of Pittsburg's re-
quirements is so familiar that Pittsburgers
are beginning to accept it as part of the
order of nature. But even a familiar
burg furnishes the largest and most profit
able tonnage to the Pennsylvania Rail-
road originated by any city on its line. 1t
is legitimate to expect that such city
should have early attention to its needs
But it seems that not only is railway
management indisposed to rectify the in
justice in rates so clearly shown in yester-
days DISPATCH, but that even the i'm
provements granted to other parts of the
line cannot be afforded to Pittsburg.
Naturally Pittsburg might expect that
when the Pennsylvania Railroad has
s., 0O0, 900 to put into betterments some
thing better than the brick shed which
masquerades as passenger station would
be given to Pittsburg; that a substitute
might be found for the track which
burdens the widest and most central
street of the city, and that ia ABILITIES gen.
orally would be improved in manner
commensurate to the magnitude of Pitts
burg's contribution to the tonnage Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad.
These things do not imply any neces-
sary enmity to Pittsburg in the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad management They are
simply eXponents of the tendency COM
mon to humanity to do the things that
must be done and to postpone those that
can be put off. The Pennsylvania Rail-
road leaves Pittsburg in the background,
and the railway combination keeps rates
8 to 10 per cent higher than to correspond
ing points, simply because they think that
they can get the traffic in any event.
When Pittsburg becomes sufficiently
aroused to establish the opposite status,
they will tumble over each other in their
haste to comply with the requirements of
our city.
