NO. 127. C3T A nTiYfl TTTTD lCSl LAST EDITION. WAITING FOR A CARNEGIE WHO VVIM.BI.KSH HIMSELF AND OUR CITV WITH A Frae Public Library Whnt Name Shall It Be The "teraae Uattery as a Street Cor Motor Not a Bnecees A Roclc In it Hewer The Lowest Bidder Not A I way Entitled to the Contract Other Gossip. Pittsburgh after a ereat deal of what teemed to outoiders, unnecessary wrangling, bat accepted Andrew Carnegie a gut of 91, 000.000 for the establishment of a public Uhrarr and music hall.

The people of Pittibnrz are to be congratulated and Mr. Carnegie is to be congratulated. Long after the members of the wrangling councils and the carping critics have been resolved to dust and their names are torgotten the people win be enjoying the gonerosity of the noble bene factor and bis name win be perpetuated to future generations with blessings. Who will be the Carnegie of Harrisbnrg? Who will erect in the capital of this creat State an imperishable monument to hit memory: one that shall be more endur ing thau columns of brass or granite The opportunity offers. Extinction, annihila tion, the thought of passing wholly oct of the world, and being utterly forgotten is re pugnant to all, and the effort to perpetuate our memory is a noble ambition.

Ibis can only be done by being phenomenally bad, tnd then we will be remembered only to be enrsed. or by doinc something to bless the world and make it better, and then we will be remembered as Girard, Florence Nightingale, and kindred spirits are remembered. There is earthly Immortality for the good and ereat soul who will establish Ilairia burg't free publtl library. Tub electric storage battery for street cars it very far from being a success, in conver sation with a gentleman familiar with the subject, a few days ago, Gossip was informed that the ordinary street car, loaded with twenty passengers, weighs 11,000 pounds, to move it requires a storage battery the weight of which 7,000 pounds, thus making 18, 000 pounds to bo inovod. That the ordinary car track is not sufficient to bear this weight.

The present price of a storage battery is 5, BOO. In his opinion the use of the storage battery is not practicable, lie behoves that It will become so in time, but was firmly of the opinion that for the present the only practical electric force was that obtained from overhead wires. TUB rorster street sower is reported as having a rock in it that should have been re moved by the contractor, but was not. If this Is so and this is the cause of delay iu sing it Councils ought to direct its removal at the expense of the contractor and at once. COUNOILMBN should remember that the late Judge Pearson decided in the case of Kime asainst the Board of Control, that a bidder Is not entitled to a contract simply because he is the lowest bidder.

There are other considerations than price that operate In awarding contracts. The lowest bidder it not alwayt the best bidder, and getting the best Is much more important than gat ting the lowest. IIARRISBURG is the best lighted city in the State. This is universally conceded. And there is a double satisfaction, toi, in know ing that it pays less for its light than any other city.

Lee are rapidly approaching completion. There will be 50, 000 visitors in the city from all over the South. No rooms are to be had at the hotels, and cots are at a premium. Every type of Southern character and costume is already represented.

The Louisiana Tigers are among the arrivals. The Jeff Davis mansion i3 prettily decorated. A delegation from Georgia came in this morning, and tho stars and bars are floating side by side with the Stars and Stripes. COAT. PRICES ADVANCING.

JHnrgaretta Leidy Jones. Mrs. Margaretta Leidy Jones, relict of the late Uriah J. author and journal ist, died at her residence, No. 1000 Green street, at 1 o'clock this afternoon, after an iiiness extending over five months.

Mrs. Jones was attacked with the grip in January and this developed into heart trouble, which prostrated her and occasioned intense suffering. She was brighter at the beginning of this week, but this morning she was seized with a sinking spell and gradually slept away. Mrs. Jones was born in Berwick, Columbia county, 67 years ago, her maiden name being Margaretta L.

Traugh. She was a great gieat grand daughter of Anthony Traugh, of the Colonial Line. She married Mr. Jones in Hollidaysburg in 1845, removing with him to Ilarrisburg in I860, where she has resided ever since. Four children survive her, William Thomas and Harry all connected with The Telegraph, and Mrs.

Gertrude Jamison, all of whom were at her bedside when she died. The funeral will take place on Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. O. N. Traugh, of Qollidaysbbrg, editor of the Standard and ex postmaster, is the only surviving brother of the deceased.

Mrs. Jones was in many respects a remarkable woman. Left a widow many years ago with a family of small children, her intense mother love inspired her with the energy that enabled her to raise them in comfort, and not only provide them with a home, but extend her charities to the poor and distressed of the city. Modest and retiring, her kind heart always found room in it for those in affliction. In the sick room, by the bedside of the dying she was a ministering angel.

Hef love for her children was without limit, her sacrifices were ungrudgingly made, and when she passes beneath the low green tent a kindly genslo soul will have taken its departure for the better land. Win. A. Parkhlll. Many readers of the Telegraph will regret to learn of the death of Mr.

William A. Parkhill, which occurred this morning ia Buffalo, N. of which place he had been a resident for a number of years. He. was a son of the late William Parkhill, of this city, and after the death of the latter he was a member of the firm of Parkhill in the plumbing business.

He was well known to many of our citizens. His death was caused by cancer of tho stomach. He leaves wife and two children. A BLIND MAN AT BILLIARDS. Surprising Plays Made by Julius Stern at the Green Table.

Julius Stern is the name of the most remarkable billiard player this conntry has ever seen. He is totally blind, yet a four cushion shot ia common amusement to him, and he can "draw," "English," and coax balls around an ordinary billiard table in a way that simply astounds people who see him for the first time. He is nearly six feet high, slander but wiry and muscular. His hands have a grip like steel, as several roisterers found out to their sorrow when they tried to boss things in his billiard room one day. It is hard to believe that he is blind.

He walks about his store and long billiard room ia New York without a stick or any assistance. So keen is his sense of "touch" that he can "feel" any obstrnction four or five feet away, ue can tell when he is near such a small object as a hydrant or lamp post on a quiet street by observing the difference in sound made by their obstrnction. A customer asked Mr. Stern to break a $20 bill for him, and he at once picked out two tens trom a roll of ones simply by their touch, ne sells twenty three kinds of cigars, fourteen kinds of cigarettes, and a dozen other varieties. He never makes a mistake.

The only error he ever made was in taking a $5 bill for $1, and ho could never find out who had played that trick on his sense of touch. It is hard to describe how Mr. Stern manages tbe game of billiards. He locates the bulls by the "spots" on the table and by placing them at certain distances from the little white diamonds in the rail. He makes shallow bridge with his left hand, and his fingers flutter nervously over the cue before he shoots.

He hits the ball as he chooses, whether for a simple carrom, follow, draw, or masss shot. The Government contracts for 500,000, 000 stamped envelopes annually. a BLOWN TO FRAGMENTS. Terrific Explosion ot the Great Justin namtte Gun. N.

iav 27. The expert ment in firing dynamite shells from a rifled powder gun at Perrysville this afternoon proved to be one of the mo3t thrilling as well as a most tremendous exhibition of dynamic power. The bis trail used by Dr. ustin not only burst into a thousand pieces, but also narrowly escaped killing ecores of people, Hundreds of lives were imperilled, and many came within a hair breadth of being man gled to death Thousands ot people came to see tho test, which promised to revolutionize modern war fare. The United btates Uovernrnent sen Commander Jewell, of the torpedo station at Newport; the Chinese and Japanese ments were represented, by Yung Wing, ex Commissioner of Education, and other offi cers of the army were present to examine into the experiment.

Tbe Frail and Fair on Hand: There were also many ladies who wanted to see the big gun explode its dynamite cart ridge against the massive stone cliir. The scene of the test was in one of the most picturesque glens of central New York. The bit? Bkkelv rifle was mounted on its prin carriap'a in sort of amphitheater, and the target was the perpeidicuiar ciut aoouc half a mile distant, over which the water from the hillside round about poured. Dr. Justin had built himself a wooden hut near this noint.

where he manufactured his dyna mite cartridges. Notwithstanding the dan gerous nature of his laboratory, a Ladies' Aid Society of the Perrysville Methodi3t church opened a 5 cent lunch stand just across the little stream, about twenty yards away. A Confederate Battle Gun. The gun used for the experiment wa3 one which had served the Confederates during the war for a field piece. The dynamite shell upon which Dr.

Justin bases his patent is 9 inches in diameter and 44 inches long. It incases several wooden boxes containing dynamite. About thirty pounds of compressed cannon powder are necessary for each discbarge. It was nearly 3 o'clock to day when tua last excursion traia emptied its quota of human freight Over 2,000 people swamel in the woods, each bent on seeing the sight. At a few minutes of 3 o'clock Dr.

Justin emerged from his laboratory, carrying the first charge, and a little later the signal for firing was given. Some of Them Were Safe, Many took up positions near the big gun; but the greater portion took to the hill half a mile away, which commandad a splendid view of the nne course. A4 it turned oat later they were wiser in their choice thau they dreamed of being, tor few expected to see such a consummation as suDaeqaenciy developed. In a minute more the 1U38 began to burn, aud a half second later there wa3 a puff of smoke. Almost at the same time au awftil report rent the air, and the thousands of spectators stood aghast as great pieces of steel shot through the air in all directions, hewing down trees, plowing up the earth and even falling among the people on the hill.

Several Marvelous Escapes. The cry on the hill when the report oc curred caused every one to look out for him self, and fortunately everybody succeeded in getting out of the way when the debris de scended. One huge piece, weighing 1,000 pounds, fanned a boy's hat from tis head as it buried itself three feet in the earth at his side. Down in the ravine the from in stant death were remarkable, and in many cases miraculous. Inventorg.Iustin had en sconced himself behind a large tree a short distance a'wiy, in order to watch the course of events.

The breech of the gun whizzed by his head and bnried itself in the ground ten yards away. Mr. Dennison, of Syra cuse, one or the patent lawyers who had se cured Dr. Justin his patent, had refuge with one or two fiieuds behind a big stump near the creek. Every man hair stood on end as the right arm of the rile shot over their heads, begrimming them with powder and with dirt in its Might.

Full Test ot the Snnp SUot An amateur photographer had pi iced his little camera in position and pulled the slide. When the explosion occurred the poor fellow was scared out of his wits. A huge piece of the breech buried itself a few teet from him. He has yet to discover whether or not his camera photographed the explo3ion. Cer tainly it was photographed on his mind.

Another boy, named McNulty, far up the hill, was hit in his right foot with a piece of the shell. No place within a radius of a mile had escaped a visitation of tho debris, I ha scared spectators as sooa as possible rushed to the scene of the accident, and then it was that the comic side of the affair was developed. Each man had his own theory, and it was intensely amusing to hear the farmers discuss the cause of the explosion. The Steel Cosing Too Weak. Commander Jewell, the United States Government representative, when asked to give his opinion as to the cause ot the explosion, said: ''The aciioa of dynamite is ia the direction of the least resistance.

I think that the steel casing of the projectile was too weak, and, being only partially filled, it broke down from the shock of the discharge. The flame from the powder would then, of course, enter aud produce the explosion." The Republican Canvass. Phlladel phla Pres 3 Up to last Satnrday 103 of the 204 dele gates who will constitute tho membership of the Republican State Convention had been elected. The primaries in seven counties on Saturday resulted in the choice of twelve more delegates, bringing the total now elected up to 115. This is mors than a ma jority of the convention, but these 115 dele gates are divided among seven candidates for the Gubernatorial nomination, so that no one has yet enough vote3 to nomiaato him.

Aoout one half the whole number of dele gates already elected are instructed, and each one of the seven candidates can claim soma of the instructed delegates, leaving sixty or so uninstructed, many of whom are just now good deal at sea as to what they are likely to do when tha time comes to vote in the convention, Of the remaining eighty nine delegates yet to be elected Philadelphia and Allegheny will name fifty five, and the others will come from Beaver, Chester, Dauphin, Fayette, Forest, Huntingdon, Jef ferson, Lebanon, Montgomery, Perry, Somerset, Washington and Westmoreland, and nearly all of tham will be chosen within the next ten days. The general interest which has been aroused during the past two or three weeks, which has brought out to the primaries in many instances substantially tlie whole lie publican vote, has made ths content more than ever free for all. It is very far from being determined yet, and it has now been made practically certain that it will not be determined short of the ballots taken in the convention. What the result will be may be predicted by any one according to his preferences or hopes, and under the circumstances tho guess of one will be as good as that of another, bnt no better. And all will be worthless.

One thing is easy to see The present situation makes it pretty certain that the candidate will be taken from tbe list of those already in the field. They have made their contests, and, so far as the candidates are concerned, it has been a friendly anl mauly rivalry. While certain unnatural events have stirred up some bitterness among the followers, there is nothing to prevent all the candidates who may fail from according the one who may succeed a cordial and earnest support. It is in this spirit that all have worked. All are pledged to such action, and nobody need fear tlitt tnera will be any failure to carry out the pledge.

This preliminary contest is one bet veou Republicans; when it is over the struggle will be with the common enemy. A colored boy of Spadra, is named Simon Suckeggs. in it to in in be on in by for in POLITICAL. POINTER. ihe Monroe Democrats have endorsed Congressman Mutchler.

The most inteiesting event oratorieally may ba expected from Gettysburg. The man of the day will be Senator Ingalla, of Kansas, who will make the speech of the oc casion. It will be a stirring ntterancs from that master of incisive eloquence.

His theme will be the great principles fought for iu defense of the Union, and the object les son which he will present to the loyal people of the land will be the traitorous retrospect the display at Richmond. Senator In galls wilt leave for Gettysburg on Thursday with Mr. 31 el'uerson, clerk of the House of Representatives, in order to view tho historic field before the gathering of the patriotic hosts of the living on the day of heroic memories. The return of Seuator Quay on Friday to preside over the meeting of the Republican National Cot mittee will be followed by a mire interesting gathering of the local Pennsylvania forces next week.

Tbe Irish American Senators and Representatives have been mnch aroused by some of these stories. Although vigorous Democrats, they have tie highest admiration for Qaay and his keen political methods, and denounce the sort of tactics which some people claiming to be Democrats have reported to. Ftlix Campbell, of New York, says: "The Republican chairman made a grand general in the campaign, and as our people nnl not outgeneral hint in the flj'ht, I do not believe in slinging mud at him now that it is over.

You may be sure we can't beat him ntxt time by throwing inul aud filth now nor then. We must use better political weapons then that. Mud dirties the people more who throw it than those against whom it 1.1 aimed. That is what I have noticed in politics." Representative Maish, of the York dis trict, has been quite nnwell from a malarial attack, having its origion during his Election Investigation Committee tour to Arkan sas, it is a genuine case ot Arkan.as shakes. The Border Claims people have been much disconcerted by the energetic Colonel's illness, as he has been in the lead working this subject up to the point that has reached.
