THE CRANK ENDORSED.

Another Patron of the Team Talks About
the ascent Seats.
Sporting Editor of the Dispatch.
read the 'skick" from ga baseball crank"
in your issue of this morning, and desire
space sufficient in your paper to express my
Endorsement of everything he says. have
heard the 25-cent seat question discussed
very extensively of late, and the general
sentiment seems to be that the proposition
to locate those seats on the roof Of the
Union bridge is an insult to patrons of tie
game. 1 would like to nsk why anyone
should pay 25 cents to sit on one of those
seats? You could neither see anything nor
hear anything, and consequently would get
no return for your money. A man might
just as we'll take his 25 cents and hand it in
at the ticket Office and then go up on Monu-
ment Hill or Mt. Washington. He could sec
and hear just as much from that locality. II
the management can afford to have "free''
admissions and free seats in the grandstand
on certain days of the week. they certainly
could afford to place the present "bleachers"
on a 25-cent tariff. During the days of the
Players League every newspaper in Pitts
burg advocated popular prices for baseball
and thev were adopted. The Players League
played better ball than did the team of last
year, and still the public were compelled to
pay n higher price for an inferior than for
superior article of ball. TWENTY-FIVE cents
stand. and dare say the management will
find this out before the season is over. A
square deal is all the public demands Give
us your opinion on this matter, Mr.. Editor,
in your Review" A PATRON.

THE HARMONY CLAIM
Revived Against the Society in
Beaver County by a Petition
FILED IN THE ORPHANS COURT.
Braddock Now Claims Real Case of the
Dreaded Typhus Fever.
EEwsY NOTES FROM NEARBY TOWNS

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DrsrArcH.I
BEAVER, March 15.-In the Orphans
Court of this county. the petition of Charles
H. Meyer was presented to-day, praying
that the Court award q citation to Jacob
Herrick. the surviving executor of Gertrude
Rapp, the alleged grandchild of George
Rapp, founder of the Harmony society, and
to the Register of Wills of this county, COM
manding them to show cause why an appeal
should not be taken from the order of the
Register, refusing to take letters Of admin
istration of George Rapp, deceased, and
why the letters asked for should not be
granted.
The petition, after stating that Rapp died
at Economy without issue August Z, 1s47,
sets forth that letters of administration
were granted August, 1s47, to Romelius L.
Baker. Rapp's successor, who died January
II, 1868, without having administered the
goods and chattels, rights and credits of
Rapp, and that no letters have been since
issued; also, that the petitioner is the I'm
perial German Consul al Philadelphia, and
104 other persons, and that these are col
lateral heirs of George Rapp; also, that the
petitioners application to the Register of
this county in November, 1885, for letters
of administration on the estate of Rapp was
refused, Gertrude Rapp having protested
against the grant: also that since herdeath,
December 29 1889. the present Register,
Orin N. Mathews, refused the application OF
the petitioner for letters of administration.
The citation asked for was accorded by
Judge Wickan1, and the matter will come
mp again at the adjourned term of court. the
first Monday in April. The Harmony Society
claims, through a representative, that the
petitioner has not legal stand to rest his
case upon. The position of the society is
this: They claim that George Rapp was mar.
Gertrude Rapp, devised to the society ali
she possessed. as did also his granddaughter,
Gertrude Rapp. Hence there can be moth
ing of his to administer upon. 1t is looked
upon here as an effort to renew claim
which had nothing of validity to start with.

At the Box Office, but Most Pronounced
Artistic success.
NEW ORLEANS, March 15-[Speeial. J.
The results of the season Of French grand
opera in this city have been announced by
the directors to the public and the stock.
holders. The expenses were in excess of
the box Office receipts. The figures for the
season show that, even with the strictest
economy, the experiment. has failed to meet
the expectati ons of the projectors, and this,
it is argued, is due to the low rates of ad-
mission. After considerable discussion, the
French Opera Association voted to make q
general advance of 331A per cent on the door
prices for subscribed seats, and also in
creased the subscription Of each club men,
ber 60 per cent.
The season has ended, and mos. of the
singers, all of whom came directly to this
city from Paris. have sailed for home. The
artistic success of tie season was pro-
nounced. One opera. "Sigurd," by M.
Reyer, was sung for the. first time in
America.

BRADDocK, March Is. - Especial J. Frank
Stuck, a young foreigner aged II years, died
to-day at Port Royal of what DR.. G. Tell, of
this place called a well developed case of
typhue. Stuck took sick one week ago with
the grip apparently, but when the physician
was called in he pronounced it typhus be-
yond O doubt.
The people of the village are greatly
alarmed over the affair. and fears are ex-
pressed that the dreadful disease will
spread. The body will be buried ut once,
and every precaution taken to prevent con-
tagion. Stuck was employed at the DENIM
Ter Tin Plate Mills, and it is thought came in
contact with some of the several passengers
OF the steamer Mossilia, who came here.
The property owners of Turtle Creek,
which place was refused borough charter
on technicality, are circulating petitions
which have been signed by nearly all the
real estate owners of the place. The petit
tions ask for a borough charter and will be
presented to court.

plant at Bessemer has been blown out. 1t is

JACK MAILER and the ever-popular Carson were
among the local winners at the show yesterday.
They have good bull terriers.
DICK SwIyELER, the famous Irish setter that was
beaten yesterday at the local show, was in bad
shape. He was lucky to be noticed.
THE probability is that Corpett and Sullivan will
talk 50 much about their soft-giove fight between
now and September that all show expenses will be
cleared.
