It developed yesterday that Martin was in Monongahela when a constable from the county seat, in company with Mrs. Martin, came to this city to hunt for the kidnapped boy. It is known that Martin had been at the houses which were searched by the constable, but about 7 o'clock that evening he was seen going down the railroad track carrying the boy in his arms. "I'm going far enough away this time," Martin it said to have declared to a friend who accosted him regarding destination. He has not been seen since but last night his employer, Charles Wickerham.

received a telegram stating that Martin would be back ready for work today. He is supposed to have placed the child with friends in Pittsburg. Third Member to Meet Death. Charleroi, July 14. The third member of the family to meet death in nearly the same way, Demon P.

Trump, 32 years old, of Roscoe, war killed in the Eclipes mine Tuesday. The funeral was held yesterday from the home of his father, W. P. Trump, and interment was made in the Mt. Tabor cemetery.

Trump was employed as a roadman in the Eclipse mine, and was working on the road. A "dilly trip" approached and before he could escape, cut him down. His body was much mangled. He had no family and lived with his father. The coal company has provided manholes along the dillie track for the protection of the workmen so as they will not get caught when the trip is being made.

Trump was standing beside the manhole, but failed to get out of the way before the cars struck him. It is supposed that he was so busily engaged in his. work that he forgot about the dillie coming. Donora, was placed in the county jail yesterday to be held for trial at the August term of court. The prosecutor in the case was Victoria Marozki, wife of the defendant.

It is alleged that on Wednesday of this week Marozki becoming badly intoxicated, went to his home in Donora and proceeded to raise rough house beating his wife and infant child. He was arrested and given a hearing before Justice of the Peace, Frank B. Hambry.

Ttner, of Charleroi, will be officially notified of his nomination for governor of Pennsylvania at the Americus Club headquarters, here, July 23 or 25. According to this announcement arrangements for the notification meeting here have been about completed by Mayor Wm. A. Magee, president of the American club. Prominent Republicans from all over the state will be in attendance, and it is thought that United States Senators Boies Penrose and Geo.

T. Oliver and Gov. Edwin S. Suart will be present. Republican Stste Chairman Ilenry P.

Walton and Secretary W. Harry Baker are looking after the general details ot the notification and have assurrances from many Pennsylvania Republicans that they will be present no matter where the meeting is held.

Reynolds of Bedford county nominee for lieutenant governor; Henry Houck, of Lebanon, rt -nominated for secretary of interna affairs, and Charles Wright, of Susquehanna county, nominee for state treasurer, not been officially notified of their nominations, and a plan is being discussed to have them come to Pittsburg also. Just what will result in that direction is still in doubt.

It will be the first time in many years that a Republican gubernatorial candidate has been notified in Pittsburg. It means considerably party activity and generally gives impetus to any campaign in the locality where a notification is held. body Was Recovered The body of John Mauser, the little fellow who was drowned at Donora on Wednesday, was recovered yesterday after many hours of unsuccessful search.

July 14. Th inlan-try organizations of the National Guard of Pennsylvania are criticised as lacking proper training: of the soldierand to show want of instruction in guard duty, while the cavalry, artillery, engineer, signal corps and naval reserve organizations are reported to be in good condition by Col. Frank G. Sweoney inspector general of the guard, in the annual report of the ppring inspections which was issued today from National Guard headquarters. The ratings and comments of the inspectors are published in General Order No.

30 by Adjt. Gen. Thomas J. Stewart, who states: These reports contain timely observations and suggestions of importance and should be carefully read and studied by every officer. It is evident that nvire attention should be given to instruction in guard duty and to increasing the efficiency of non-commissioned officers.

The first troop, Philadelphia City calvary, until recently commanded by Maj. John C. Groome, now in command of Squadron A leads the guard in figure of efficiency. Its showing being 99.90. The next best showing and the best for infantry is made by a western organization, Company I of the Tenth regiment, Greensburg.

commanded by Capt. Wade T. Kline, which shows 99.04. Company I leads the Tenth Regiment with the above rating, while Company A of this city is second with a percent-of 96.50. This is gratifying to local Natural Guardsmen and shows that the soldiers are taking an active interest in their work.

Company A has always been classed among the leaders and since this is the first inspection since the regiment was recuited to twelve companies it shows a marked improvement. Miss Elyada Oliver returned to her home in Pittsburg today, after a visit here with Miss Elizabeth Hall in Third Street. All home made pastry here, at Chess-rown's; FAUBLE The Up-to-Date Clothier ALWAYS PLEASES See Our Lines FAUBLE 222 MAIN STREET Other towns in this vicinity are making extensive arrangements for the benefit of their children and are opening playgrounds where the little ones can go spend a pleacant hour. We have made several attempts to launch the playground idea in this city, but each time it has been a failure and though all are in favor of the movement, nothing has even been done along this line. We have not given the matter up, however, but instead, suggest another idea.

At the foot of Second street, just across the railroad tracks, there is large open lot, where the old flower mill once stood. The lot is comparatively level and with a small expendi ture could be put in excellent shape for small public park and playground, Contracts have been placed with the Allegheny County Light Company by the Morris Bailey Steel Company for electric current to illuminate the Company's cold rolling mill at Wilson station, on the Pittsburg, Virginia Charleston Railroad, and operate motors with a total capacity of 460 horsepower. The Morris Bailey Company it installing a new 21 inch diameter 36 inch face cold rolling mill to roll material 30 inches wide, and to operate this the Company is installing a 350 horse-power motor to be connected to the Allegheny County Light Company lines, Steam for power has been abandoned in the operation of four old German cold roll ing mills and these will hereafter be operated by two 40 horse-power and twn 15 horse-power motors taking current from the County Light lines. The change from steam engine down to electric drive on the smaller mills was made to save space in the plant, increase the production and Becure economy in operation. Electric motor drive for the large mill was decided upon because power purchased from the Allegheny County Light Company was demonstrated to be more economical and satisfactory in every way than either tteaw, engine drive or motor drive from the rolling mill Company's own power plant.

The Morris Bailey Company employes 100 men and makes cold rolled steel. 'The five Of Is" Dance, The dance given at Eldora Park last night by "The Five of Us" club, proved to be one of the most enjoyable affairs of the present social season. Guests from several towns responded 10 the invitation and a most pleasant evening was enjoyed. Several special features were introduced which addd much to the general success. The favors were sunflower and fowl fans for the ladies and butterf'ies and birds for the gentle men.

The "Moon Dance was a special feature and was made doubly charming by the casting of paper rib bona in all directions ndding the grape vine effect. Another feature was the giving of a card bearing some design to each lady and gentlemen. These matched and the gentlemen were re- auired to hunt lor their partner for a special dance. The affair was pronounced a success and the next invitations ate awaited expectantly. The club contemplates giving dances all through the summer.

The members are Donald Herron, Harry Larimer, Dr. W. P. Taylor, John N. Jenkins and Paul S.

Despite a remonstrance signed by 93 citizens, an ordinance awarding a street lightening franchise to the West Penn Electric Light company, of Brownsville, passed first reading at ajneeting of the borough council last night. A warm fight is expected before the ordinance is passed finally.

Gas lights are now used and opponents of the new franchise say they are more satisfactory and cheaper than electric lights. Some time near the middle of next month a party of 15 second lieetenants of United States Army engineers members of last year's graduating class of West Point, are expected up the Monongahela river to study the lock and dam improvement along its course. The young engineers have been studying at first hand engineering problems in various parts of the country and in Panama and have been ordered to Pittsburg from Washington and will report to Lieutenant Colonel Henry C. Newcom or in charge of the engineering department for the rivers, at Pittsburg. The young officers who expect to remain about three weeks in the Pittsburg vicinity, will be given opportunity here to study movable and fixed dams of types which can be found in no other part of the country.

The officers are sent here technically under instruction, but it is understood the principal object of their assignment is to permit them to study the problems in the cantalization of the Ohio River from Pittsburg to Cairo. This great work, considered the most, important the engineer corps will haveto deal with during the next 12 years, will demand the attention of a number of these young officers and by remaining at Pittsburg for a month they will have a good opportunity of learning at first hand the character and scope of the work which the Government has undertaken. The Monongahela river has probably more in improvements for navigation than any other river in the United States, and the most expert engineers of the country have used all their ingenuity and ability in constructing the various locks and dams along its course. The new lock No. 5 is claimed to be the best in design and construction in the United States.

BEN FORSYTH Catholics Methodist Presbyterians Christians Baptists Presbyterians Two games were played in the Church league last night, the Methodists defeating the Christians and the United Presbyterians defeating the Baptists. The Methodist-Chridtian game was played at Gregg's field and at times was rather loose. Schilling was in the box for the Methodists and added another game to his long list of victories.

He pitched an exceptionally brilliant game and had his opponents at his mercy throughout the contest. Bob Zimmerman and Reed were the pitchers worked by the Christians and they were hit pretty hard at times. The Christian team seem to have taken a decided slump and most of the players have lost interest. It was necessary last night to borrow a substitute from the Methodists to make a full team. The United Presbyterians from the Baptists by a close score of 5 to 4 and were lucky at that.

According to the report of the game, the Baptists had the game won, when two runs were allowed to sneak in and the score was changed from victory to' defeat. The United Presbyterians are playing the most consistent game in the league and are deserving of much' credit-Since taking charge of the team Manager Garbart has instilled fighting spirit into fiem and they are destined to be a factor before the close of the season. The Presbyterians and Catholics were scheduled to play but owing to some misunderstanding, the team went to Liggett while the other went to the Bryan field. Hence the game could not be played and a postponement was awarded. Thousands of items to go-some are reduced-some cut in half and others are fairly slaughtered at Towner's July Clearance Salc-now going on.

The fresh breez from the river would be the mjst healthful and couldjnot but be beneficial to all. The Monongahela Military band could undoubtedly be induced to give frequent concerts and in all the place could be made an artistic city park.

Another feature would be the grand view it commands both up and down the river. We have a small fleet of pleasure boats and yatchs moored at the local wharf and it would be a small matter to arrange local races between the owners. They are several very fast boats among them and if these were found to be too fast for competition, they could be handicapped, to make the race interesting. There are also many canoeists here who would be willing to enlist in the movement. The spot which we speak of commands a view of over a mile on the river and would make the spot ideal from which to watch the race These suggestions, we feel sure will meet with the approval of our read it Surplus $50,000.00 otv Swtatt Deposits TRUST COMPANY TRUST COMPANY BUSINESS Hinicininininniniininninininininninininainnina ft ft.
