GRIEF.

All is over! Come away;
Buried is my grief today;
Seel il lieth deep and low
With a name upon its breast.
Hushl in quiet let It rest.
Open is it to the sky;
But the grief so still doth lie
In its cofined, peaceful sleep,

IT WAS EXPENSIVE.
Jacob Huber's Visit to Germany Cost
Him His Possessions, and
A COMPLICATED SUIT FOLLOWS
Charges and Counter Charges Nade by
Members of Ono Family.
ALDERMAN GRIPP GROWS VERY WEARY

Judge Gripp spent all Of yesterday after.
noon in a fruitless effort to unravel one oi
the most complicated and confused cases
ever heard by him during his extensive
Aldermanic career. The case not only con-
fused Messrs. Jordan and Blakeley, the at
torneys, but it kept Judge Gripp away
from the Republican State Convention, and
so mixed up the prosecutor and defendants
that the county courts will be called upon
to separate them in a judicial way.
The whole trouble grew out OF family
brothers-in-law and two former friends of
the family were concerned in the affair, and
when the case was transferred to court,
Judge Gripp was not clear who had been
sued, and who was suing Henry Huber.
Edward Iness. Fritz Huber and John
Trautman were charged by Caroline Huber,
wife of Jacob Huber, with conspiracy, and
the hearing developed all the confusion.
A Few Facts to Tic To.
The only positive information obtainable
was that Jacob Huber and his wife, who
were well-to-do, went on visit to Germany
last December. When they returned two
weeks ago they found they were absolutely
penniless and that all their property had
been transferred from one to the other of
the defendants, until it had entirely disap-
peared beyond the reach of any of them.
When Jacob Huber and his wife went to
Germany they left their horses and wagons,
a butcher shop and a thriving trade out in
the Thirteenth ward in charge of Fritz
Huber, Jacobs brother. Jacob and his
wife had hardly arrived in Germany until
Peter Sauer, brother-in-law, brought suit
against Jacob Huber to recover an alleged
debt of several hundred dollars
The suit was entered before Alder
man Welty and Fritz Huber
compromised the case by transferring to
Sauer the butcher wagon and horse. Sauer
then sold the outfit to James Stetts, another
brother-in-law, and it was alleged that
S:etts borrowed the money to pay for it
from Mrs. Huber, Jacobs wife.
The Butcher Shop Went Next.
A few weeks later the butcher shop and
business was sold by Sheriff's sale to Hey
den & Suess. 1t is alleged that this sale
was unnecessary and was made for the pur-
pose of defrauding the original owner dur
ing his absence.
The various transactions were literally
alreo DeIore Judge GrlPP, ana the cllma1
was reached when Fritz Huber testified
that his brother Jacob had transferred the
to him with instructions to accept
and deposit to Jacobs credit any money
that might come into the business, and to
say to any creditors that might call that the
property had been sold and that the original
owner was in Europe.
After the charges and counter charges
had been made and the lawyers had at
tempted to explain them, Alderman Gripp
threw up both hands, and with look of
wild despair held the whole outfit for
court. They all gave bail.

CAME OF AN OLD FAMILY.

Death OF Henry Beltzhoover, Son Of q
southside Pionssr-The One-Time Host
Of the Stone Tavern-Recalling Tragic
Murder.
Henry Beltzhoover, one of the best known
citizens of Castle Shannon, died yesterday
at his home, aged "a years. The deceased
was the lineal descendant of family whose
ancestry landed in this country in 1645.
Jacob Beftzhoover, the father Of the de.
ceased, was the pioneer of the Southside, OF
what was then called Bcltzhoover borough,
he owning Sawmill Run, Castle Shannon,
Knoxville, Allentown and surrounding
property, then . waste of hills and wood
lands.
Henry Beltzhoover was apprenticed to a
millwrieht py his father, who owned large
grist mill. After attaining his majority he
went into the tavern business, and success
fully run the ''Old Stone Tavern" on Car
son street, where the Panhandle depot now
stands For some years this was popular
resort for travellers. Afterward MI. Beltz-
hoover took possession of the "White
Hail." on the Brownsville road, which
he conducted from 1857 until 1866.
Upon retiring from the tavern business he
was appointed Superintendent of the Rob
inson- Rea Boiler Works, on the Southside,
where he remained several years. During
this time he supervised the building of the
gunboat Manyunk, which did great service
in the naval conflicts of the Rebellion.
Afterward he was Superintendent of Gray's
Iron Line, which is still in existence. For
years past he has led a retired and easy
going life on his farm at Castle Shannon.
Many old citizens will remember the
tragic murder of his brother Melchior, who
was stabbed to death by a stranger who
stopped over night at Beltzhoover Tavern,
back in the '4O's William Beltzhoover,
another brother, the father of County De-
tective Beltzhoover, was first attacked by
the madman, who slashed him with keen
knife several times late at night. His cries
brought Melchior to the rescue, and the
fend thrust the blade through the
latter's heart. The murderer was sentenced
to the penitentiary for II years. He was
insane, but the laws then did not recognize
insanity as an excuse. DR.. Samuel Beltz-
hoover was another brother who died three
years ago, while Judge Bailey's first wife
was sister. Rev. DR.. Knox's wife was
Beltzhoover, and the famous Countess
Virginia Knox-Montercole, was by mar
riage related to the deceased. Squire
Thomas Warner, who held the office of
Squire for 81 consecutive years, married a
sister ALSO
The remaining sons are Harry B. and S.
P. Beltzhoover, of Pittsburg, while G. M.
and John D. Beltzhoover are prominent
business men of Cincinnati. The funeral
will take place from the residence at Castle
Shannon at 1:30 this afternoon.

THE DISCHARGE FROM sTREAMA
An Interesting Paper Read by Mr.. Dawson
Before the Engineers' Society.

An Interesting Paper Read by Mr.. Dawson
Before the Engineers' Society.
The regular meeting of the Western Penn
sylvania Engineers Society was held last
evening. Sixty-four new members were
elected, the largest number ever admitted
at one time. Prof Langley. of the Commit
tee on Smoke, reported that the committee
had met. and divided itself into sub-com-
mitee, each to take branch of the subject
for Investigation. They would not be able
to make complete report until future
date.
The paper of the evening was read by
George S. Dawson. His subject was "Dis-
charge Observations of Large Streams. !"
The subject was one of interest to engineers
especially in making river improvements,
The paper was q review of various observa-
tions taken to arrive at proper basis for
determining the amount of water discharged
by stream, under varying conditions,
within given time The experiments
show that by proper observation almost
the exact number of cubic feet of water to
the second that large stream will dis
charge can be determined. The paper was
technical and very lengthy. At its con-
clusion short discussion of the subject
ensued. ~
AT the next meeting q paper on 'Tron
Mill Buildings" will be read by John
Siebert.

A Malicious Lie.

Parties who are interested in circulating
such reports have been circulating the re
port that the first public sale at the new
town of Aliquippa was failure and that
the deeds to the property are very unfair
Such rumors are unfounded and only put in
circulation to injure Aliquippa for the ben.

sale can be had at the office. Copies of the
deeds can also be seen and effectually refute

Before summer is we'll advanced Alfquippa
will be one of the busiest towns in the State.
It is a wise man who will prove the value of
Aliquippa as an Investment himself rather
than listen to the malicious lies of Jealous
people who SEQ in the new town q menace to
their land speculation schemes. Plans and

TO AMUSE LITTLE ONES.

William Jordan Proposes to Furnish
Ponies for the Pittsburg Parks.
William Jordan, of Southern California,
came to Pittsburg with carload of Shet-
land ponies, several pony buggies, a lot of
saddles and a head well filed with ideas to
please the children of Pittsburg. Immedi-
ately upon his arrival in Pittsburg Mr..
Jordan waited upon Chief Bigelow and pro-
posed that the ponies, saddles and buggies be
transferred to the Highland and Schenley
Parks, and that the ponies be kept there for
the use and amusement of the little ones.
Mr.. Jordan proposed that he keep and care
for the ponies, and that in return he be
allowed to charge the little ones 8 cents a
ride. He also proposed that the length Of
the ride should be fixed by the Chief:
The idea, novel one in its way, favor
ably impressed Chief Bigelow and it is
probable that he will accept Mr.. Jordan's
proposition. The scheme is said to be
working satisfactory in all the large parks
of the country. Jordan says he has been
successful wherever he tried the idea and he
now has ponies in all the principal parks of
the country.

Some OF His Friends Go to Harrisburg to
Push His Claims.
The reports from Harrisburg that Judge
Ewing's stock was on the boom stirred up
a number of his friends, who started for the
State capital last evening to help along the
good work. In the crowd were Congress-
man w. A. Stone, ex-Recorder w. H.
Graham, Senator Steele, CAPTAIN Joseph
Eaton, John Caruthers, McKeesport, and
E. F. Acheson, of Washington.
Colonel Stone said the nomination of
Judge Ewing would greatly strengthen the
ticket in Western Pennsylvania. He
hoped, for the good of the party, that the
PittsbHg man would be named. He thought
that Major Mcdowell as Congressman at
large would not interfere with the Judge
ship coming from Allegheny county. Both
position belong to Western Pennsylvania,
and Allegheny county is entitled to repre-
sentation. The others talked in the same
strain

TOO TOUGH FOR THE L. 4 O.
Detectives Working All Sorts of Schemes I
Capture Union News Agents.

Detectives Working All Sorts of Schemes to
Capture Union News Agents.
The Law and Order magnates have been
cudgeling what brains they have for some
time trying to catch the Chicago and Jersey
City agents of the Union News Company,
who sell papers at the Union depot on Sun
day. The young men arrive early in the
morning, and disappear in the darkness
at midnight. The next day they are
back at home out of the State, and warrants
can't be served on them. Law and Order
detectives have stood around the news
stands all day trying to figure out how to
capture the young man behind the counter.
They have wasted considerable Doodle buy
ing papers all for nought.
Last SUNDAY several of the detectives
registered at the st. James Hotel under as
sumed names. Lock No. was spelled
'1ock thre" by one of them, but then the
public must make allowance for bad SPELL
ing. A diabolical plot had been laid to
capture the news agent, but as usual it mis-
carried. 1t makes the newsmen quake
with laughter to worry the Law and Order
sharpS.

ALL THE LEASED LINES MERGED,
Tho Pleasant Valley Company Absorbs AL
Its Numerous Branches.

Tho Pleasant Valley Company Absorbs AL
Its Numerous Branches.
The Pleasant Valley Company yesterday
absorbed the leased branches known as the
Allegheny Street Railway, Allegheny and
Bellevue Street Railway, Perry Street Rail-
way and the Troy Hill Passenger Railway.
At a meeting of the stockholders of the
company yesterday it was almost unani-
mously decided to pursue this course. This
move does not mean any change, but simply
the merging of these lines into the one COM
pany.
''rhe feeling on the question was almost
unanimous" said Secretary Graham, of the
Pleasant Valley Railway Company, yester-
day. "Manv Of the stockholders simply
sent their proxies to me. The three ques-
tions decided were the merging of the
leased branches, the increase in the capital
stock $10O, 900 to'cover the debts of these
branches, and the Issue of 500, 900 worth of
bonds. 1t simply means that the bonds Of
these roads shall be turned into this COM
pany and Pleasant Valley bonds issued in
their place. There was no trouble about
merging these lines, because they were not
competing lines, and no traffic contract had
to be made as in the case of the Fifth ave-
nue. and Duquesne traction lines"
