not of the gilt-edge order. "Miss Inno-

tions for large company, mag
nificent saloon deck and ornate

A movement is on foot to help actors
by organizing a society in New York To
be known IS the Actors Association. A
lot OF money is made in the theatrical
business, and yet, while managers get
rieh, actors remain poor. The average
salary among he 5000 actors on the stage
is s35 week, and, as the average season
lasts only 20 weeks, the average actors
yearly income is but $3.50.

THE TOP NOTCH REACHED.
A Remarkable War Souvenir Offered
Absolutely Free-Read This Care
fuIly.

The top notch of enterprise and lib
erality has been reached by The Pitts
burg Times, which announces that ev-
cry one of its sixty thousand subscrib-
ers, and all who will become regular
readers before Saturday, May 18th,
will be presented with the First Part
of the most remarkable Art Portfolio
of the year. The work referred to is
tFrank Leslie's Scenes and Portraits
of the Civil War; which will furnish
complete and authentic history of
the conflict between the States in
pictures drawn on the spot and in de-
scriptive prose. The First Part will
be delivered free to all readers of The
Pittsburg Times in exchange for the
first six coupons, and the other TWEEN
ty-nine parts will be furnished in ex-
change for six coupons clipped from
The Times and ten cents for each
part.
There win be thirty parts, twenty
six of which will be devoted to Illus
trations and four to reading matter.
Each of the first twenty-six parts will
contain sixteen Illustrations, making
total of four hundred and sixteen in
the complete volume. Short descrip-
lions will accompany the pictures in
each part. The pictures were made
on the scene of battle by the most ia
nous artist of the time, and can
therefore be relied upon as absolutely
accurate. The work will be supple
ment to every written history, por-
traying as it does the striking Incl
dents of battle and giving the like
nesses of the leaders whose names
were on every lip in the days of strife.
Here the veterans win find the past
recalled, and here the young may gain
inspiration to emulate their patriot
ism and devotion.
The Pittsburg Times deserves
thanks for placing this splendid his
tory within the reach of the people at
nominal cost, and its proposed free
distribution of the First Part to all
its readers is generosity without a
parallel. If you are not a reader OF
The Times, order 1T from your news
agent at once. If there is no agent
for Times in your locality, write tc
The Times. Pittsburg, Pa, for terms
to clubs and agents.

A FIRST DECREE VERDICT.
John Eisimfnger to Hang For the MUIR
der Of Samuel Mccoy.


The trial of John Eisimingsr for
the murder of Huckster Samuel Nc
Coy closed Friday evening at Way
nesburg. The jury came in Satur-
day morning with verdict of muir
der in the first degree. The prison
er did not seem to be affected by the
verdict and sat as cool through the
terrible ordeal as he did through
every day of the trial. The first de-
gree verdict surprised no one in
Waynesburg for during the trial
public opinion found him guilty from
the beginning. A new trial was
asked for and sentence postponed for
the argument of it. 1t is thought,
however, that a new trial will be re-
fused, and that Judge Ewing
will sentence Eisiminger to hang.
1t is said that after the trial was
concluded, Friday evening, Eisimin
ger was playing seyen-up with an
other prisoner. He remarked. "It
you beat me two out Of three, I'll
have to swing" Eisiminger lost
four games and as he threw down the
cards said, That means hang
Courier.

The Crop Season.

The wave of warm weather and
strong sunshine which has been
passing over the country since Wed
nesday last has doubtless given an
impulse to all growing crops from
the Rocky Mountain plateaus to the
Atlantic coast. So far, at least, as
temperature is concerned, vegetation
during this period has had sufficien t
stimulus. The mercury has gone up
to seventy degrees and even higher
in most of the agricultural sections.
The rainfall of the year, however,
in many large areas has been so far
deficient, or less than the usual
amount recorded in the period from
January to May. The passing
"warm wave is associated with a
depression which has given rise to
considerable showers in numerous
districts were more moisture was
needed. If the so-called periodical
cold spell of May" appears on time
this year lit is usually looked for in
the second week of that month
there may be more general and
more copious rains.
