As we carry the largest line of high grade instruments in the city you can buy of us the right Piano or Organ at the right price. FredF.

-L. Kelper, 41 North Seventh Street, WHAT MR. SCHANTZ SAID. Alderman Jones Declares the Quay Ticket Intact add will stay 20. Councilman Schantz, whose strictures on the mayor at Tuesday evening's terday in accordance of council meeting, were grublished yescity typewriter, denies that he the term "loafer," and in this statement he is borne out by a number of his colleagues.

He further said: "In reply to Mr. Sterner's statement I desire to emphatically contradict him. During my canvass for the postmastership I had occasion to have typewriting done and I offered him the work. We had a distinct understanding that it should be done after working hours and that the paper to be used was from his own private supply and that he would be compensated for work and paper when the job was completed. After its completion he received merchandise as compensation which he claimed was more than satisfactory, although he at first refused to take the same.

The ordinance increasing his 'salary had nothing to do with it, was not even mentioned and if he would declined the work I would have given to some one else. If he used the city's time and paper he deceived me and his statement is but the continuation of the peculiar methods employed by some one to elect himself a state delegate." Alderman Jones this morning said, "An unfounded rumor is being per-. sistently circulated by Mayor Lewis and the other anti-Quay people that W. H. Gangaware and Harry J.

Smith had withdrawn from the Quay ticket for state delegates. This is emphatically untrue. There is no change in the ticket, which consists of Mr. Gangaware and Mr. Smith, of Allentown: O.

B. Derr, of West Bethlehem, and Wm. W. Morris. of Slatedale.

be no change. Far from withdrawing, they will be in the fight the end. What is more, they will be elected and will go to the state convention June 2. "Mayor Lewis says the reason why he desires to be elected a delegate to the state convention is that he may therefore be able to have his fatherin-law, Capt. James B.

Hamersly ap. pointed deputy revenue collector of this district." Capt. W. H. Hankee, of Slatington, who is an anti-Quay man this time, was in town to-day.

The gloves are remarkably well knitted, being heavy and warm.

One finger is provided for handling a gun. They are little worn and are interesting relics. Mr. Rems was a brave artilleryman. He was in Sherman's famous march and engaged in numerous hot battles.

Washington, April infernal machine was sent to the White House this morning. It was luckily discovered by the police in time. The president believes a formal declaration of war unnecessary and the senators who agree advised that a manifesto be sent to the powers that a state of war exists.

TO EUROPE ON A CATTLE SHIP. The latest fad for, summer traveling is going abroad in the cattle ship. This not nearly so bad as it sounds, and for one who must needs think of the expense before embarking on such a journey, it is more economical than passage on one of the palatial steamers which twice a week leave the dock at New York. So much of a fad has become this new mode of ocean travel that passage is engaged months ahead. The cattle ships rarely take more than 60 passengers, whose cabins are placed amidships, and are large, comfortabio and well furnished.

Sailing on the cattle ships is perhaps an easier mode of travel than on the regular ocean steamer, for there is no rocking or plunging from one side to another, so dangerous to most voyagers, since the boats are supplied with bilge keels, which are two extra keels running along the sides to prevent the rolling SO common. Though there are usually from 800 to 1000 head of cattle on board these ships, there is an absence of odor, since the decks are thoroughly ventilated. Some of the passengers who have gone across the Atlantic on board the cattle shipa tell of the smell of sweet hay which is something wafted to them, and how they lie in their hammocks before their cabin door with almost the same security as when at home. Unless the passengers so desire, they need never see the cattle from the time they go on board until they leave. NEW GRAND MARSHAL.

Carrie, the three-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ezra Grate, of 718 Penn Street, is being treated for hip disease. The little girl was injured by some unknown means about four months ago. Drs.

W. P. and E. M. Kistler were called to treat her.

The hip joint is violently inflamed. To afford relief the doctors put her to bed and attached a pully weight to the leg. They think she will have to remain in bed under this treatment for six months. After that an appliance will be secured to enable the child to walk. The last resort in such cases is removing the head of the bone, but it is hoped this will not be necessary In this instance.

Paddy Sheehan in Chicago. D. S. Daudt, manager for Paddy Sheehan and George Hadden, who are now in Chicago, Sheehan's reputation has preceded says, to the Windy City and he could not arrange any contests. He was obliged to fight Roberson (colored), of New England, from whom he won by a foul in the second round.

Sheehan would have whipped him anyhow, Daudt says, despite Roberson's butting and other mean methods of fouling. Sheehan will fight Jack Hanley, of Philadelphia, before the Montello Club, in Chicago, on Saturday night, and Hadden has a bout arranged for April 30. Daudt writes that they are being finely treated in Chicago. Free From Debt.
