Tho True Remedy for Drunkenness.

A philosophical contemporary con.
tends that the true remedy for drunken.
ness lies not in the law, but i'm the Cos
pei The drink-habit is the product OF
two sins. Greed stands ON GRE side of
the counter and appetite on the other.
Law attempts tc erect barrier between
the two, The Gospel attempts To take
greed ont of one soul and appetite ont
Of the other. 1t is n slow process, but
sure one The longest way round is
the nearest way home.
There are two ways OF curing sin
one by restriction from without, the
other by inSpirat ton from within. The
one way forbids the boy 20 run in
the streets at night, the other
makes the home SO attractive 10 him
that he does not wish the companion.
ship Of the street, The one way hedges
Sunday round with prohibitionists, the
other makes it the most joyous day of
the week. Law says thou shalt not
steal; the Gospel inspires love for ones
neighbor. The religion OF laws is a
religion of restraints and regulations.
The religion OF the Gospel is II religion
Of inspiration and life. The one is the
Ten commandments; the other is the
Sermon on the Mount.
Sometimes, however. the Ten Com.
mandments and the Sermon on the
Mount go very well together. st. Louis

ARTISTS AT THE FAIR.

Their Paintings Must Be Ready for Inspec-
ton Very Shortly.
John W. Beatty, one of the judges Of
American art for the Chicago Worlds Fair,
has received copies of a publication con-
tanning general information for artists and
others who desire to exhibit paintings for
distribution in Western Pennsylvania.
Copies of the work have been sent to all
Pennsylvania artists whose names could
be secured, but with the view of placing
it within the reach of any who may
have been missed, or whose names were
not placed on the mailing list sufficient
number have been sent to this city and they
may be secured by application to Mr..
Beatty, or to Joseph R. Woodwell, the other
member of the jury.
The time for the commission to report is
rapidly approaching and in order that Penn
sylvania may be fittingly represented in
the art department our artists and others
desiring to contribute paintings, should
lose no time in making application for
space. All such applications must be in by
November /. Artists are not only invited
to contribute works which they now have
in their possession, but they are also asked
to send lists of their principal works, to-
gether with the names and addresses of
owners. No painting will be exhibited
without the consent of the artist who pro-
duced the work.

But Ike Hill Thinks the Democratic Party
VIII Garry Ohio.
Ike Hill, for II years assistant sergeant
at arms of Congress, was a passenger for
Washington last evening. He had been at
his home in Newark, and he expects to re-
turn October l and remain in Ohio until
after the election, whooping it up for
Cleveland. Ike is character in Washing
ton, and all the politicians that haunt the
national capital know him.
"We have heard nothing lately but re-
ports from Buzzard's Bay and Loon Lake, "
he said. "This will stop now, and both
parties will get down to work. I was op-
posed to Cleveland and helped to send dele
gates to Chicago from my district who voted
against him, but I think after all his
nomination was the best thing for the
party. Hill has spoken, and when the
people catch the spirit of his speech it will
brighten Democratic prospects all over the
country. feel as if we were going to win.
As for Ohio, think we never had better
chance of carrying the State in Presi-
dental year. 1 want to say that Ohio is
much easier than States like Iowa, Michi-
gan and Illinois, They are going Repub-
lican. The Farmers Alliance will give
Iowa to Harrison sure. 1 look for no hope

FRANK CENT BURIED.
His Wife and Mother Almost Heart Broken
With Grief.

His Wife and Mother Almost rt-Broken
With Grief.
Frank Cent, who was stabbed in the
heart last Saturday by his brother Joseph,
was buried yesterday afternoon. A great
crowd of bareheaded children and women
wearing gingham bonnets gathered
around the door, They were the
tenants from. the neighborhood, and
were there more out of curiosity than sor-
row. The mother of the murdered man and
his wife are heart-broken over the affair.
Their walls and sobs were pitiful to hear.
Rev. Father Schnuer, of Mt. Washington,
spoke few words, and then the body was
borne away to the grave.
The police received telegram from Cum
berland yesterday stating they had arrested
a man who corresponded to Joe's descrip-
tion. Inspector McKelvey telegraphed
that the murderer had a scar on his forehead
which the Cumberland man did not have,
and he was released. The impression is
general that Joe will soon be caught
The Coroner held the inquest in the fore
noon. Mrs. Gent, Charles and Maggie
Bergstaller related the circumstances Of the
stabbing. The jury held Joe for murder,
and the Grand Jury at once returned true
bill against him.
Detective Coulson says he could pick Joe
Gent out of crowd of 10000 people. He
has his suspicious that the brother is being
harbored at the house of relative. Agent
O'Brien is also working on the case. He
knew the boys we'll, and expected to call at
the house Saturday afternoon at o'clock to
get money from Frank for the support of
his child.

A ILDxWOMAN

Terrorizes the Inhabitants Of Monfrose-
Children Scared Away From Their
Favorite Playground She Claims to Be
Looking for Her NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Suspicious of Her.
The little town of Montrose, on the West
Penn Railroad, has a mysterious woman
who comes no one knows whence and dis
appears no one knows whittier. She
has been variously named the
wild woman of the hollow" and "the crazy
woman OF Squaw Hollow" She appeared
about two weeks ago in the little ravine
that cuts the town q short distance below
the station. Every few days she disappears
for time, always to come back when the
townpeople have begun to feel relief
and congratulate themselves on being for
ever rid of her. A challie dress, in which
faded roses struggle to assert their color
through the soiled white of its ground,
clings limp and scant about her angular
figure. A dilapidated hat of antique pattern
crowns her closely cropped black hair, and
from under fluffy bang flash two fierce
black eyes.
Several times she has chased children
along the road that skirts the hollow, so
that now not child in the town
will venture into the ravine, once
their favorite playground.
''She was hanging around my place one
evening"" said a man who lives near the
hollow, "and went out to ask her what
she wanted. She said she was waiting for q
friend. She moved on, however, and 1
have not noticed her since, though the
children say they have seen her."
One woman whose house she hung about
suspiciously asked her what she was doing
there. She claimed that she was hunting
her husband, who had disappeared while
she was in the hospital. Opinions in Mont
rose vary in regard to the stranger. Some
incline to the opinion that she is insane,
others that she is q man in disguise. Unless
she leaves the place soon the people claim
they will find way of Kidding themselves
of her society.

THE BUILDING BOOM.

A smaIl-Sized Town Being Erected Within
CITY Limits Every Month-Labor Strikes
Have Had but Little Effect-Scarcity of
Iron Beams.
The strikes about the city do not seem to
have any material effect in depressing the
enterprising spirit of the capitalists of
Pittsburg. Last month was the busiest 81
days ever known in the history of the Build
ing Inspectors office. In fact all of the
months following the declaration of the
various strikes have been above the average.
During the month of June permits were is
sued for 365 buildings, the contracts
amounting to s71O,116 July shows that
333 building permits were given, the con-
tracts aggregating S646, 557. In the month
of August, the largest month since the
Office has been established, there were per-
mits issued for 421 buildings, the cost of
which aggregated 81, 800, 4S8 In this
amount the contract for Joseph Horne &
Co.'S new building is included, being
entered at S3O5, 900.
The business so far this month has been
dull, as it always is at this time of the year,
but the contracts in view will make the
months business amount to consider
able. Among the large buildings
about to let contracts, which have
not been entered at the Building In
spectors' office, are the new Carnegie block
on Fifth avenue; the Heron building on
the old Christ Church property, and large
schoolhouse in the West End. The coming
months, October and November, are usually
very good months for the building trades.
This month is always dull, as is July after
the spring building boom. During the
month of August there was $3.50, 600 put in
dwelling houses in the Twentieth ward
alone.
"'You can see" said the Building Inspec-
tor, ''that we are building small town
within the city limits every month"
The Builders Exchange reports some lit
tie trouble caused by the delaying of work
on buildings by the scarcity of iron. Con-
tractor j.. w. King was forced to suspend
work on Captain Vandergrift's building at
the corner of Wood and Water streets Sat-
urday. This is the second time work has
been stopped on account of the contractor
being unable to get iron beams. The strike
is not delaying the majority of the build
ings, however, as the number of large bust
ness houses where iron is required in the
construction is very small when compared
to the number of dwellings now being built.

REBUILDING BRIDGES.

The Engineers Society Has an Interesting
Discussion of the Subject.
An interesting meeting of the Engineers
Society of Western Pennsylvania was held
last night at their rooms on Fifth street
1t was the evening for the discussion Of
mechanical subjects. Gustave Kaufman read
a paper on the reconstruction of the Ninth
street bridge, explaining how ii was pos
sible to supplant an old-tashioned, covered,
wooden bridge with the handsome, mod
ern, iron and steel structure which stands
to-day monument to the builder, without
causing the suspension of traffic for single
day. Mr.. Kaufman's description OF the
work in detail was highly instructive, and
while lengthy, was listened to attentively.
A general discussion followed.
Next Tuesday night the chemical section
of the society will have the floor.

WATCHING COAL DEALERS,
They Must Give Full Weight or Suffer tn
Legal Penalty.

They Must Give Full Weight or Suffer the
Legal Penalty.
Ordinance Officer McKenna is following
up coal dealers and insisting on their strict
compliance with the law in weighing coal,
calling bushel 76 pounds full and issuing a
certificate to that effect for every bushel
sold. Mayor Gourley has issued orders to
Officer McKenna to enforce the law in all
cases.
The city has erected scales in some half
dozen convenient places throughout the
city where coal can be weighed in case the
customer Is not satisfied with the number of
bushels named in his certificate. These
latter must be issued and penalty can be
imposed if they are not. Penalties are also
attached if they are found to be false.
Mayor Gourley is of the opinion that the
poor people, who are small purchasers, are
the ones oftenest imposed upon, and has
determined to have the business s.of coal
selling closely watched this winter.
