PITTSBURG CUT
OBI FROM WORLD
By Disastrous Storm That Did
Thousands Of Dollars
Of Damage

Pittsburg April 4.-Pittsburg was
yesterday the center of a snow storm
that began early in the morning and
continued with great force until after
noon, doing thousands OF dollars worth
Of damage. Iyrendered practically use
less, for a time, every electric wire In
the city, suspended all street car travel,
and in the early hours isolated the city
from the outside world. Heavy rain
fell before the storm came, and all re-
ports from up river points tell of rising
streams which may bring about a
food here and below. The losses can
not be fixed at present, but conserya-
tive estimates place the amount at be-
tween S250,000 and 100000. Telegraph
and telephone companies are the heavi-
est losers, because their lines reach
every part of the storm district
The trunk lines of the central dis
trict were the first to give way, and
most of the other troubles that fC low
ed are attributed to the failure of the
service. The poles were heavily laden,
carrying $50 telephone wires and two
cables. Wherever a pole gave way
long stretches of poles went with it,
falling over into the street, breaking
trolley and electric line wires as though
they were threads. On Ellsworth ave-
nue. from Anderson avenue to Craig
street the wreck is complete, every pole
being down. BY dint of hard work,
with a large force of men, street car
travel has been resumed. The tele-
phone company has a large force at
work and say they will be in opera
tion within a day or two.
The storm passed outward, and all
the suburban towns in that direction
suffered proportionately with this city
| Williamsburg, Braddocks, Homestead
Duquesne and McKeesport all report
business at a standstill for a portion
Of the day, caused by the prostration OF

Washington, April "A dispatch

Aguinaldo had been invited by Presi-

quiry here developed the fact that the
rebel leader has not been invited here
and whether or not he will be in the
future is a question that will be de-

ARRANGING FOR
 SUPPLY OF COKE Preparations for Putting Wood stock Furnaces in Blast SECRETARY QUINN WAS HERE Both Stacks of the Company Will Probably be Blown in by Sum-
 mer-Have Daily Capacity
 of 400 Tons.
SECRETARY QUINN WAS HERE

Preparations for putting the Woodstock furnaces at Anniston in blast are being made. and it is probable that both stacks at that place will be active before summer.
 A. H. Quinn. secretary and treasurer of the Woodstock Iron Works has been in Birmingham this week making arrange ments for supply of coke. The lack of coke has been one of the main drawbacks to the operation of the two furnaces the past year, and when in Birmingham last spring, J. D. Probst, of New York, one of the largest stockholders in the company, stated to an Age-Herald reporter that if a supply of coke were obtainable the two Anniston furnaces would be put in blast without unnecessary delay
 The two Woodstock coke furnaces have a combined daily capacity of about 400 tons of pig iron. They were built in 1887 and 1885, They were operated for short time in 1889 and again in the early nineties, but for the last six or seven years both have been idle.

Presidents New Horses.

From the Cleveland Plain-Dealer.
 The Presidents official team was shipped to Washington today. It is magnificent span of bay horses full brother and sister, the gelding years old and his sister 6.
 Some weeks ago President Mckinley commissioned his friend, Myron T. Herrick, and Ralph Gray of this city to buy him a team in this State. The horses were selected after considerable trouble down in Summit County. The requirements of the President could not be filled in this city. He wanted large team. They must be 400 pounds in weightS and at least 16 hands high. Their tails must not be dock ed The color bay was preferred. With these Instructions the Cleveland committee found the team. It was brought to Cleve- land and during the past week it has been driven about the streets to get used to the trolley cars and steam engines special harness was made for the animals, and they have become fond of city life already. The coachman thinks they will make a fine ap- pearance on Pennsylvania avenue on March 4, and on subsequent days during the sec ond term of President Mckinley.

\ AT MORRIS HOTEL BAR. World renowned draught beer
 "MICHELOP."
 BreWed by ANHEUSER-
 BUSCH, St. Louis. Nothing to EQUAL in the city
Condemns Goody-Goody Books.

From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Rev. George A. Campbell of Austin, Tex, has begun crusade against what he calls the Sunday-school book; at the same time he pleads for the best fiction for the Sun day school pupils. T The great novels" says MT. Campbell, .''have been written by strong men, and children should look at the world through such men,"
 There is a sound educational theory in this observation.
 Nothing is better calculated to strengthen character, temper the intellect and exalt the spiritual life. than good fiction studied an childhood.
 The wholesome. unsentimental novels of George Eliot, Nathaniel Hawthorne or even w. D. Towels, contain the philosophy of life in a. concrete form which can be com municated naturally to the child. Such lit- erature will elevate, refine and purify, while the stuff condemned by Mr.S Campbell, though full of moral" and edifcation, is false, sickly and enfeeblng.
 Give the child the best. Don't compro- mise on a lesser degree of exSllence.

 fries-Ruhlin Fight at Veto.

Athens, January 23.-(SpeciaL)-The an- nouncement is made in the Cincinnati En- quirer that in the event that the Jeffries- Ruhlin contest cannot be pulled off in Gin cinnati that it will be held at Veto. in this county, has aroused a good deal of talk. Veto is directly on the State line between Tennessee and Alabama, and in a level ter ritory, and the Enquirer announces that the ring will be made half in Tennessee and half in Alabama. Veto is about ninety four miles south of Nashville, on the main line of the Louisville and Nashville, and it is possible that the attempt could be made without serious prevention on the part of the local authorities, as the trains now run they could drop down with couple of special trains and have the bout and be away before the authorities could reach the spot, there being no telegraph office at Veto or nearer than four mile. It would bring a great outpouring of sports to that quiet neighborhood.
