TEARS In COURT.

Lewis Van Houfen Is Sentenced to the Penf-
tentiary for Three Years and His NJ other
and Sisters Weep-He Promises to Be .
Better Citizen.
Lewis Van Houten, who pleaded guilty to
forging an affidavit to pension claim, was
taken before Judge Burlington yesterday for
sentence. When asked what he had to say,
Van Houten said he knew he would have to
go to the penitentiary, but it was his first
offense, and done partly through ignorance.
When he got out he intended to return to
his home and try to live as better citizen.
He would ask the Court to be as lenient
with him as possible.
Judge Burlington said that the case was
not one that apparently deserved lenieney.
The crime had been done deliberately, and
the prisoner had taken advantage of the
Government, which was then partially sup
porting members of his family. When he
concluded Judge Burlington sentenced Van
Houten to pay fine of 500 and undergo
three years Imprisonment in the Western
Penitentlary. The scene was made doleful
by the tears and weeping of Van Houten's
mother and sisters, who were in the court
room.
The claim of Van Houten against the
Government was a genuine one, But he
forced his mother and sisters to sign affi-
davlts which altered the date of his birth
so as to enable him to secure four years.
more pension as a soldiers orphan.

drill, are each entitled to superlative
praise.
Among the principals, Miss Edith Harris
as Shelonrith, and Mr.. Morris Stevens as
Zerubbabcl, had much the most arduous roles,
and earned most hearty commendation tor
the musical and histrionic art with which
they made much out of such
poor material Miss Elise Warren,
the foreign star, was curiously
misplaced as Nitocra,a role that gave
very little opportunity for the display of
her exceptionally fine soprano and vocal
skill. Mrs. J. Sharp Mcdonald, as Aaton'ia,
and Mr.. Weeden, as Be'shazzar, did all that
could be asked with their respective
parts. The numerous subordinate charac-
ters were much better cast than is usual.
Altogether the performance was great
surprise. The knowing ones "went to
scoff and stayed to pray'-and to ask why
was all this wasted on such piece and,
since Pittsburg possesses so much operatic
talent why should we not hear it again in
something worth doing?

Two Instruments in One.

The only instrument upon which seculaI
effect and ease is the new seven-octave
piano-organ sold at Kleber Bros, SOC Wood

eted alike by the rich and poor. For the
expression of devotional feeling, the tender

contrivance The price of it is very moder-

piano, which it closely resembles, and hence
it suits all pockets all tastes and all musi-
cal desires. Call and see it and you will noS

LITTLE TALK.

A Good Thing Between People Who Do

| guments That Cannot But Convince
Those Concerned.
| tbs a good thing for people who do bust
ness with each other to have a little talk oc-
casionally. We want to have a little talk
I with the public to-tay. Every week is pub
| lished in these columns number of inter-
| esting statements. They are made by people
who have been patients of Drs. Copeland,
| Hall and Beers. The portraits Of these
patients accompany the statements. Tho
/ presentation of portraits with testimonials
is a feature of the Copeland method and
| while it has been copied extensively by the
manufacturers of patent medicines and
| ouack nostrums, it can have force only when
| the persons who are thus presented are
known to the readers. This is the strongest
testimony that can be given as to the truth
fulness of a statement.
Drs, Copeland, Hall and Byers present
fresh testimonials with every week. They
do not make 4 chance cure and then adyer-
tise it, but they make cures constantly and
without number. The statements furnished
by patients are not obtained from them by
favor or as condition of trea tment but are
given gratefully and gratuitously. These
testimonials must count TOR something since
they are steady and reliable.
This week two are given Of such varia BILE
ages (little Marie Smith aged and Mr..

more than usual interest. They prove that
catarrh is not confined to any term OF years.
and that Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers'
victory over this disease knows no bounds.
The public is asked to read them They
are certain to be interesting to all who are
afflicted with catarrh, disease that, in one
shape or another, affects 30 many people.
Those who are interested should then re-
member that by the popular plan inaugu-

afflicted can receive successful treatment,

A Fine Amateur Performance.

Mr.. Butterfeld's cantata "Belshazzar. is
combination of driveling, imbecile lines
and sugary, mawkish music that should be
ashamed to show its face outside OF the
remote country districts for whose "singing
school" entertainments it was manifestly
concocted.
Aside from the responsibility for choosing
such a piece, so much the more credit is due
to all those who helped to make out OF it
one of the most effective amateur pro-
ductions ever seen on any stage. The per-
formance was really remarkable in its
scenic splendor, its dramatic effectiveness
and the smoothness that told OF infinite
pains at rehearsal 1t was far above the
average of amateur shows, even where
worthy subject matter is presented.

One hundred free musical entertainments
in community like this means much. 1t
means an immeasurable amount Of innocent
pleasure to thousands of people.
Two things of genuine Importance to the
cause of music for the masses have bsen ac-
complished by the Allegheny effort thus
far. One is that the city has been committed
to the support of the concerts and has
added 'City Organist" (the first office of
the kind in the country, perhaps) to its
salary list. The other great point is that
the peoples ear has been gained, SO that
hundreds of them turn naturally toward
music as means of recreation and over
crowd the roomy hall every week. This is
vital.
But while giving all due honor to those
who have accomplished thus much, the
question will keep recurring: when are
these musical entertainments to become in
fact as in name organ recitdls, where the
people can hear tbe legitimate music Of the
instrument played in legitimate style"
Until this comes about, the so-called "free
organ recitals," however pleasant and
profitable from this or that point of view,
cannot truthfully be said to be realizing the
intent with which that fine instrument was
built for the city. Nor will they, until
then, give the people the particular kind of
pleasure they have the right to look for
there.
