TALKING ON THEosopHY.

Tho General Secretary Of the Society Tells
Of the Organization.
Wilson @. Judge, General Secretary of
the American section of the Theosophical
Society, who is at the Duquesne Club and
who is returning to New York from the an
nual convention of the society at Chicago,
delivered lecture in the Spiritualists' hall
on Sixth street last night. The lecture was
fairly well attended. On the stage with the
speaker was w. c. Temple, President of the
Allegheny ball club, while in the audience
were metherly-lookIng women, gray haired
men and great variety OF young people.
In his lecture Mr.. Judge discussed Theo-
sophy and the Theosophical Society. The
object of the society, he said, was to form
nucleus of a universal brotherhood of
humanity without distinction of caste
creed, race, sex, color or religion; to
promote the study of Aryan and
other literatures, religions and
sciences and demonstrate the importance of
that study. and to instIgate the unexplained
laws OF nature and the psychlcal powers
latent in man. ''Our society" the speaker
said, has no creed. 1t requires assent to
no formula of religious belief 1t is abso-
lutely unsectarian. 1t is unattached to
politics, and to involve 1t in any political
movement is to violate its constitution and
incur expulsion from its ranks 1t is an
open body, without secrets and limitations"
The lecture was nearly two hours in
length. The audience listened attentively
and all showed marked attention.

GLAD TO BE RELIEVED
Mr.. Dempster Thinks tho Coal Shipments
Won't Be Any Larger Than Last Yenr.

MIR. Dempster Thinks tho Coal Shipments
Won't Be Any Larger Than Last Yenr.
Ale3ander Dempster, who has retired
from the coal business, went to New York
last evening. He says he is very glad to be
relieved. Some men make money in coal
while others have very little to show for
their work. Mr.. Dempster says the freight
rate was cut 3 cents, but no sooner was it
done when some of the operators reduced
the price of coal from 211 to 8 cents per ton.
They were afraid the market would be dull,
and rushed in to get the business. A few of
the Hooking Valley shippers have been cut
ting the price of coal, but Mr.. Dempster
thinks only the men who need money have
done So He figures that the railroads will
not be able to carry any more coal this
season than they did last year, SO that the
reduction in freight rates will not help
Pittsburg very much. Already cars are
scarce, and they are becoming fewer and
farther between every day. He believes in
the end that the Hooking Valley operators,
who whined SO much about making the
freight rates equal, will get their share of
the trade as usual.

LIMA OIL PROVES COSTLY.
Looking for Cheaper Fuel for the Brilliant
Pumping Station.

Looking for Cheaper Fuel for the Brilliant
Pumping Station.
Chief Bigelow and Mayor Gourley had a
conference yesterday concerning the fuel
used at the Brilliant pumping station.
The city now has contract with the Stand
ard Oil Company for Lima oil which is
piped directly to the boilers, but is costing
far more than was anticipated. When the
oil system was first adopted it was figured
that all the steam necessary could be raised
at an expense of about 81, 500 month. 1t
has been little over six months now since
the use of the new fuel began, and its cost
has steadily increased from 50, 900 the first
month, to S12, 800 for last month.
This figure is considered too high, but
coal would cost nearly as much, counting
the cost of handling coal and ashes, and
would make an enormous quantity of
smoke, and the only alternative is natural
as. The Philadelphia Company has been
eeping a close watch on the city's expense
fuel, and, it is said, have intimated that
will furnish all that will be required for
Brilliant station at $1,000 a month for a
ID of six months, but no longer. Some
k this offer is made in order to get the
for a customer, and that when the six
tbs expire the price will be doubled,
on the other hand it is argued that even
.ch is the case, the company has larger
oly and smaller consumption in the six
mer months, and can afford to supply
city cheaply in that period, and that
ould be to the city's advantage to take
company's offer and then return to oil
cheaper fuel when the contract expires.

THE BAKER BALLOT MIDDLE

Both the Mayor and tho Sheriff Will eign
the Special Election Proclamation-Dis-
gusted With the Law-Lawyers Have
Trouble to straighten 1t Out.
Attorneys representing Mayo Gourlev,
Sheriff McCleary and the County Commis-
sioners met yesterday and discussed at some
length the Baker ballot law. They also dis
cussed the question whether the Mayor or
the Sheriff should issue the proclamation
for elections under the new law.
On Thursday Mayor .Gourley issued a
proclamation for the Councilmanic cleo
tion in the Thirty-third ward, Pittsburg,
where the contest at the regular election
between Perry and Loughron resulted in q
tie vote. Some of the attorneys argued
that under the new law the Sheriff should
issue the proclamation while others con-
tended that the Mayor was the proper per-
son to issue the proclamation because, they
argued, that under the law the Mayor has
the same authority as he had under the old
act,
When issuing the proclamation for the
special election, Mayor Gourley was in
doubt as to his authority. He consulted the
go ahead. At the conference yesterday the
attorneys themselves were not entirely clear
on the subject, and as result Sheriff Nc
Cleary will indorse the Mayors proclama-
tion to guarantee its legality.
The new law requires that proclamation
for an election by the Mayor shall be issued
at least 42 days before the election, while it
also requires that the Sheriff's proclamation
shall only be issued ten days before an elec-
tion.
:. Senator John Mech, who was called into
the conference on the subject, says the
Baker ballot law has greatly confused every
body. at is especially annoying to the
politicians of Pittsburg and Allegheny just
now. The Baker law, q" he went on, IRE
quires that party nominations shall be made
AZ days before the election, and under this
law this is the last day upon which
nominations can be made. To get a name
on the regular ticket after to-day it will be
necessary for the candidate to secure the
names of at least one third the voters of his
ward to sign petition to the County Com
missioners asking that the name be put on
the regular ticket. Otherwise the ticket
will be printed with blank spaces upon
which the voters will be compelled to write
the name of the candidate who has not com-
piled with the law
''This law must be repealed" one of the
attorneys who attended the conference said.
Annoying features of it turn up every day
and every day we are more thoroughly coll
vinced that it will not do It will cost
the State several million dollars to get it
into working order, and then think BY
that time people will be 50 disguised with
it that they will demand that the law be re-
pealed. 1t is an internal nuisance" the
speaker concluded.

contemplation, have been completed. This

The Allegheny Observatory has hitherto

GUESSING AFREE BRIDGE SITE
Chief BiseIow Thinks a Selection Should Be

Chief BiseIow Thinks Selection Should Be
Made and Work Started Soon.
Chief Bigelow offered to make a bet YES
terday that he could guess the location of
the proposed free bridge to the Southside.
He was in conversation with a number of
other gentlemen at the time, and the new
bridge was under consideration. 'T don't
pretend to know where the bridge will be
placed" he explained, ''but am willing
to make the wager on my judgment of pub
lie sentiment"
No one seemed willing to try to win the
wager and the guess was not made. Mr..
Bigelow, in further discussing the question,
said he was in favor of starting on the bridge
at once, but it would probably require three
or four months to get an ordinance prepared
and passed and another to let the contract.
If anything is to be done this year it must
be done now. A proposition is now talked
of to allow the Southside people to select
two sites, one in the vicinity of South Tenth
street and the other up about Twenty-sec-
ond or Twenty-fourth streets, and then de-
eide which shall be chosen by popular vote.

ENLARGING CARNEGIE HALL.

Ats TOunuer VIII MAKE lmportant SHauSes
in tho Building Upon His Return From
Europe - Thousands Turned Away
Weekly From the Organ RecitaIr.
That the people Of the two cities like
music has been shown in many ways of late.
The proposition of THE DISPATCH to es-
tablish free concerts in the parks has met
with such favor that no one can doubt the
desire of the masses to hear good music
at every opportunity. Another proof
of the fact that music is not allowed
to go to waste when there is no prohibitive
tariff of admission is afforded in the
tremendous success of the free organ re-
citals in Carnegie Hall, Allegheny. Mr..
Harry B. Ecker, the organist, said yes
terday that for the last two months he has
been obliged to turn away at least 1000 peo-
pie every Saturday because they could not
possibly squeeze into the hall This, too,
with an audience of 1000 people inside, sit
ting and standing. Last Saturday, when
Mr.. and Mrs. j. X. Murray assisted, the jam
was greater than ever. Mr.. Ecker says he
always gets to the hall some time before the
hour announced for the commencement of
the recital, but he has to fight his way to the
organ through a solid mass of people every
0aturOay.
There is strong probability of the hall
being considerably enlarged when Mr. Car
negie returns from his European trip. He
is willing to do anything he can to give
greater accommodation, and it has been
pointed out to him that there is space of
go feet on the Diamond street side that
could be taken into the music hall, with 10
feet in length that could also be added.
The probability is that this enlargement
will be made during the summer, SO that
when the recitals are taken up in the tall
there will be room for several hundred more
people. Mr.. Carnegie takes the greatest
interest in the recitals, and is anxious to
give as many as possible the privilege of
enjoying them.
At this afternoons organ recital City
Organist Ecker will be assisted by the
Schumann Ladies' Quartet and Mr.. Eduard
Vignau, flute soloist.

GETTING Rid OF UNION MEN,

Some Of the Brickmakers Will Not Employ
K. of L. Labor.
A report was going the rounds yesterday
that the brckmakers of the Builders Ex-
change were going to discharge all K. of L.
men in their employ. There is some truth
in it, but the Exchange has not taken any
concerted action in the matter. One of the
largest brickmakers yesterday said:
'The Exchange has never decided that
brickmakers should not employ union men.
Some time ago a resolution was brought up,
which had this in view, but one firm OBJ
jected to it for political reasons, and 1t was
then decided to let the manufacturer use his
own Judgment. As result of this, there are
only about four brickvards in the city OF the
present time, where K. of L. or union men
are employed. The John LAM Company
was the last to refuse to sign the scale.
believe it will now employ non-union men.
The firms now employing union labor all
have particular reasons for it."

some kind of a meeting will be held. The
topics to be discussed involves the questions
of taxation, free bridges and parks for the
