BADE ADIEU FOREVER.

Members Shed Tears as They Say Goodby
to the Old Fifth Avenue E1ihce-Inter-
estins Reports From All the Societies in
the Church.
The members and friends of the NJ. P.
Church gathered in the old building last
night to<ake a final farewell of the edifce
which for so long has held much near and
dear to them. During the meeting
tears were seen to glisten in the eyes of
more than one old pillar of the church
Long after the session was over, the older
folks fingered. They seemed to be trying
to prolong the parting rs much rs possible,
as though they were bidding adieu forever
to some friend near and dear.
All the societies of the church met last
night and made reports. One of the most
interesting was that of Sunday School
Superintendent W. X. Gillespie. The
school was formed away back in 1929, but
there was no record of the school until 1S47,
as the janitor had sold the minutes
of the intervening years for waste paper.
From what could be gathered it was shown
the school of 1929 was composed of $50
members but at the present time it is down
to 13O. The records of the school bear the
names of many prominent Pittsburg-
ers In 1867 c. L. Magee was
assistant librarian. For the past 20 years,
one-third the life of the church, Misses
Irene Rutledge and Annie Armstrong have
been teachers in the Sunday school, This is
considered a splendid record.
Miss Ella Patton showed what the
Woman's Exchange had been doing. The
organization was formed in 1888 and has q
membership of 30. 1t was instituted to
help in decreasing the debt of the church,
and has so far contributed 5000 toward that
fund.
1t was also shown that the church con-
tributed heavily to the fire sufferers in 1916.
Other reports read were as follows:
Woman's Foreign Missionary Society, Mrs
Mary A. Miller; Kings Daughters, Miss
Annie Rutledge; Christian. Endeavor So
ciety, Willard Zimmerman, and Preachers
Aid Society, John S. Elliotts. This last
organization was formed in 1881, 1t now
has reserve fund of S27, 900.

A New Inclined Plane to Be Built to Mt.
Oliver-Freight Cars to Be Hauled to
the Hill Top for Delivery-Many Options
Already Secured.
Another new inclined plane will shortly
be built from the Southside to Mt. Oliver.
For some time past agents have been busy
securing options on property along the pro-
posed route, all of which have been secured
except that of Chris Bonner, but he has e1-
pressed willingness to sell outright. The
utmost secrecy has prevailed in the secur-
ing of the options, the agents telling differ
ent parties that the property was wanted
to erect an asphaltum works. just who the
people are that are interested it was impos-
sible to find out, but it was intimated that
J. F. Grimes, of the Knoxville Land I'm
provement Company, and Joseph Keeling,
the well-known coal operator, were at the
head of the concern. DR.. j. NJ. Duff said
last night that the incline was to be built
from Twenty-first and Jane streets to Ar
lington avenue The route will be very
easy. as the grade will be but feet
in 100. 81 am not at liberty to say
who the proprietors are" said the doctor,
''as the scheme was told to me in conf
dence. saw one OF the gentlemen on the
street this evening. He has just returned
from Harrisburg, where he had been look
ing after the application for charter, and
he told me everything was all right and
they were going ahead. The incline is to
be built on larger scale than any other in
this vicinity. The cars will be SO con-.
structed as to permit the carrying
of freight cars to the hill top for
the benefit of merchants and others
in that vicinity. 1 am not interested
in the corporation. but 1 know it will be
built, as the money is already up. 1 think
it will help business in this end of the town
considerably"
Register S. P. Conner and some friends,
it is said, have also applied for charter
Their terminus is at St. Michael's Gene
terry, which is not considered as good as the
other one. There is contest between the
two companies as to who has prior claim for
the charter, and hearing will be held next
week to settle the difference.

ABOROUGH OF BEAUTY
Sewickley Preparing to Pave Streets
With Vitrified Brick.
SURVEYING THE TOWN FORSEWERS
The Water Commissioners Formulating
Plans for New Plant.
FILTERED RIVER FLUID TO BE USED

Sewickley intends to spend considerable
money this summer on borough improve
| ments. When she is through her streets
will be better, her water supply improved
and the town likely severed throughout
At the last meeting OF Council it was de-
| cided to pave the towns principal thor
oughfare, Beaver avenue, with vitrifed
brick. The avenue is one mile long and
will be paved its entire length from curb to
curb. Bids are now being received for the
work, and the contract will not be given to
the lowest bidder unless he is the best.
1t is the desire of the town to pave all
its streets, but it is not likely that any
more of its avenues will be improved be-
fore next year as the contract on hand will
require considerable outlay of money.
Surveying tho Town for Sewers.
The town has some other Improvements
in view, however. To-day F. A. Dunham,
civil engineer from New Jersey, will
visit Sewickley and make a survey of the
town for sewerage. The Sewickleyians are
clamoring for system of sewerage, and it
was thought wise to employ an engineer to
make a specific plan of the borough.
1t is thought the sewer1ng of the town will
not be very expensive, 'as the borough has
natural advantages. The land has gradual
slope down to the river.
The Water Commission OF Sewickley is
also at work. The town has outgrown its
present water works and is demanding a
more modern plant and better supply. A
reservoir up on the hill above the town and
an artesian well down along the banks of
the Ohio river have been furnishing the
water. These were built quite number of
years ago and it is now a usual thing for the
residents of the town to be without water.
This plant not only tries to supply Sewick-
ley, but an adjoining town and township.
Filtering the Ohio River.
The commission wants to get its water
from. the Ohio river. The idea is to bring
it grom the center of the stream
and by means of some Euro
pean plan filter it, so as to
make the liquid as sweet and pure as that
taken from the old oaken bucket The
commission is now at work on the plans.
and when they are ready they will
be submitted to Councils for ap-
proval. Then an ordinance Will
be asked for, granting the borough officials
the right to erect new water works. 1t is
thought there will be no trouble in getting
the measure through Councils as the town
seems so unanimously to want it. The
borough also needs the water works for fire
protection.

A PORTABLE FIRE BRIDGE
George Barnes Novel Invention to Prevent
Street Railway Tie-Ups.


Street Railway Tie-Ups.
George Barnes believes he has solved the
problem of street car tieups during big
fires Chief Brown and ex-Superintendent
Evans, of the Plttsburg Fire Bureau, agree
with him. He has invented a portable
bridge, which can be attached to street
car and hauled to the scene of a fire 1t is
light enough to be handled by two men,
and when raised, the present size will be 16
feet high and 26 feet from base to base, or
large enough to cover three street car
tracks 1t is also strong enough to bear
the weight of half a dozen lines of hose, and
could be used as an elevation from which
the iremen could fight the flames.
The contrivance is simple in construction.
There are wheels on each side of the sup
ports which double up under the main part
of the bridge The bridge is raised by SIM
ply drawing the ends out and the apparatus
is so balanced that the weight nearly all
falls on the wheels. When in position it is
so constructed that it braces itself. The
whole apparatus does not weigh over 700
pounds
Mr.. Barnes, who is a blacksmith and lives
at so Monterey street, says If he is granted
a patent he will manufacture the machines
himself At the request of Superintendent
Rugg, of the Citizens Traction line, he is
now preparing to build full sized bridge
Mr.. Barnes idea is for the street railway
companies to have these bridges at different
points along the route so they could be
quickly hauled to the scene of the fire. The
firemen claim they would be able to raise
the bridge with the hose on it.

he QUITS THE M0UNTA1Ns
Internal Revenue Agent Culbertson Re-

Internal Revenue Agent CuIbertson Re
turns to Washington, D. c.
I. L. Culbertson, Chief of the Internal
Revenue agents, who has been for six
weeks with a number of his deputies in the
mountains of Somerset county hunting
moonshiners, went to Washington last
night. Mr.. Culbertson has completed his
work in the Somerset district and, during
his stay there, he arrested five moonshiners
and captured four illicit stills. He says
there are yet some moonshiners in that re-
gion, but he believes they are so thoroughly
alarmed now that their capture is impos-
sible. He is confident that Pritts, the al
legged murderer of old man Hochstetler, is
still in the mountains near where his crime
was committed, but he also believes that
the outlaw will not be captured within a
year.
"What do the illicit distillers do with the
whisky they make?" was asked Mr. Gull
bertson.
81 made that the subject of investigation,
and find that much of their product is sold
to the mountaineers in quantities ranging
from gallon to barrel. Much of it is sent
bv wagons into the Connellsvi1le coke re-
gion, and some of it comes to Pittsburg,
where it is mixed with better quality Of
whisky, and in that way is sold at great
profit.

City-Presentations to Retiring Oflcers.
After one of the most harmonious, sue
cessful and pleasant sessions in its exist
ence, the Pennsylvania Grand Court of the
Ancient Order of Foresters of America
adjourned yesterday and the majority of the
delegates departed for their homes last
night The Eastern men expressed them
selves highly pleased with Pit.sburg and
the treatment they received at the hands of
the people here, in and out of their order,
and declared their intention to support
Pittsburg for their meeting place every year
hereafter.
After such crushing defeat as they suf-
fered in the elections for officers yesterday,
the Eastern men could hardly be expected
to speak so highly of Pittsburg. The dele
gates from this end of the State won every
thing in sight, even to naming the next
meeting place. The next convention will
be held at Scranton.
The officers elected were as follows:
Thomas J. Ford, ESQ.,, Grand Chief Ranger;
Robert NJ. Erskine, G. s. c. R.; Edward
Jones, Secretary; Thomas Kean, Recording
Secretary; Alfred Marland, Treasurer; F.
M. Lewis, G. S. B.; Alex. Mccormick, Jr.
G. S. B.; William Kirk, Philadelphia, G.
S. W.; w. W. Wear, Philadelphia, Jr. G.
S. W.; Charles Parker, George Blackmore
and j. j. Lewis, Auditors; W. T. Williams,
Oscar Mouller and Joseph Price, Trustees
All the officers except the two named from
Philadelphia are Western men.
The hardest fight came on the secretary
ship, the first ballot showing Jones, of
Pittsburg, and Daniel Foster, of PhiIadel-
phia, tie. A few voters showed signs of
going over to Jones before another ballot
was taken, and the Eastern men capitulated,
making Jones' election unanimous All
the other officers were elected by acclama-
tion after this
The business of the last day consisted of
finishing up the Law Committees report on
changes in the constitution and copstitu-
tion for the juvenile courts of the order,
for boys between IL and is years of age, all
of which were adopted.
just before adjournment, Hon. Alfred
Marland presented a gold chain and emblem
charm to Charles J. Elliott, of Philadel-
phia, the retiring sub-Chlef Ranger. and
the newly elected Grand Chief Ranger Ford,
presented, on behalf of the Western
delegates, an elegant gold watch to
his predecessor, Eli Moon, of Wilkesbarre.
The installation of the new officers was
performed by DR.. William Runkle, who
officlatcd in the session as a representative
Of the Supreme or National Court.

Bishop J. p Thompson presided at the
A. NJ. E Zion Grand Conference yesterday.
Rev. F. NJ. Jacobs, who had been dis
ciplined for standing up during prayer,
made an attack on the press of Pittsburg
but he was hooted by the Conference and
apologized.
A collection was raised to send back Rev.
B. j. Benson to Alabama He has been ill
and his mind is failing.
Rev. B. M. Gudgen offered a resolution
that as there is no place in the Book of
Disciples stating at what time presiding
elders reports should be made to the Con-
ference that the Committee on Resolutions
present some recommendations on the mat
ter The motion was carried DR.. Manley
presented plan of book he desired the
Conference to accept and publish. 1t is
entitled "Fifty Plans on Raising Money to
Pay Off Church Debts"
The remaining time of the session was
taken in consideration of the Book Concern
of New York. At present this is the only
concern under the supervision of the Church,
and from the reports made it was shown that
the revenues were not very extensive from
it. The salary of Its agent is 81, 800 a year.
1t was proposed to reduce this to 81, 900 and
to establish repositories in five parts of the
country, but in the midst of this discussion
a recess was taken.
In the evening Rev. L. R. Ferbee, of
North Carolina, preached.
