Andrew Carnegie has made presentation of a new pipe organ to the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church, of McKeesport. The present was unsolicited and was made without the knowledge of the church eiders. A handsome new church was recently completed, but the funds in the treasury of the church did not Justify the purchase of an organ.

One was needed very badly, and the matter reached Mr. Carnegie in New York. When he arrived in Pittsburg he instructed WL. Mayer to make plans for an organ for the church. The lirst word the church people had of the presentation was received in a letter written by Mr.

Mayer to Kev. J. T. Uavis, pastor of the church, this week, telling him that Mr. Carnegie has written him Instructing him to build a new organ for the church.

The price paid was or at the rate of SG00 a barrel for the Droductlon. There is room for 15 or more additional wells on the property, the undeveloped part of the purchase being a valuable consideration. The price paid seems pretty high, but shows, as has been maintained in these reports, the high favor in which that territory is held.

Carl Williams aid Percy Klefer Will Play Their Last Game. Fierce Backing; Contest Expected. This afternoon at Exposition park the treat annual football game between P. A. C.

and D. C. Sk A. C. will take place.

Both teams have been preparing for the conflict, all the games played so far being but stepping-stones to to-day's event. The P. A. players are at Oakmont, where they have been in seclusion since Sunday morning. Reports from there say that the boys are in excellent shape and in fine fettle for the great battle to-day.

The line-up of the East Enders is still in doubt. The names sent In by Manager Gray last night include only one new man. He Is White, of the West Virginia university team, who will play right tackle In place of Scott, the latter being injured. the Latrobe team, will play, fullback, but he was in the line-up against W. J.

two Saturdays ago, and is therefore not a new man. Boyle will be at Quarterback. Trenchard and Wood, of the Latrobe team, will not be on the team. Manager Greenwood, of D. C.

A. telegraphed Manager Berry, of Latrobe, yesterday that if any of his players are found with P. A. C. it would be considered a P.

a. game, and the game of November 19 with Latrobe would be can celed. Berry immediately came to town and emphatically declared that he would not allow any of hla men to play with P. A. and never had any intention of dotnsr so.

The Duauesnes threatened to take on the Newton A. A. eleven, of Massachusetts, instead of Latrobe on the lath. The Duquesnes will hare a new star in its line-up. He is Gantmons.

who in 1SS6 and 1S97 played left half for Brown university. Gammons is a giant player, and took part in all the games his college played against Tale, Harvard and Pennsylvania in the two years he was connected with the team. Last year Brown crossed Harvard's goal line tfcree times, and Gammons scored two of the touchdowns. The other was made by Fulz, who last season was a member of the Philadelphia baseball team. Gam mons is one of the best halfbacks In the business.

He will be permanently stationed at halfback for the balance of the season. He comes here in time, as the Duquesnes will lose Williams and Kiefer after to-day's game. This will necessi tate a shaking up in the back depart ment, and probably the engagement of a tar quarterback. The Duquesnes took their last practice yesterday afternoon. Captain Jackson was perfectly satisfied with the showing or tne men.

iney will go against v. a. C. fit as fiddles, and expect a hard game but ultimate victory. With such men as Kiefer, Ransome, Wlnstein and Brown on the side lines the team will have first class men to fall back on in case of in-' iurv to any of the regulars.

Friends of P. A. though not claiming victory, are confident that the East Enders will surprise the public. They will discard all fancv clays, and indulge in straight football. The game will one of the hardest bucking contests of the season, in which men are expected to fall by the wayside like flies.

The East Enders are trained for Just such a rousing game. It will be a battle for blood from start to finish. The game will begin at 3 o'clock, and one of the largest crowd that ever at tended a football game 19 expected to fill Exposition park. The officials will be Buck Vaill and Ed H. Brainard.

Both competent men. The teams will line up as follows: D. C. A. C.

Gelbert Left P. A. C. Gilchrist Bovaird Church Left tackle Lawler Left guard Jennings Center Smith Right guard Farrar Right Okeson Right end Williams Roller Hopkins Marsh White Hey Boyle Jackson Left half Van Doozer Gammons Right half Lowery Young Fullback Lewis Bubs D. A.

It will be Latrobe's aim to roll up a bigger score than 17 to 0. by which it defeated the collegians on the college rrounds on October 12. McGulre. La robe's new man. will be in line for the first time.

Nov. Uni versity of Pennsylvania football team ar rived home to-day, and whlle keenly dis appointed over the defeat by Harvard each man was in good physical condi tion. Coach Woodruff lost no time in getting the eleven down to practice again. He had them out this afternoon, but for the first time this season the practice was secret, and It will continue so all this week until Saturday, when the Indians will line up against the var sity. There is a probability that Half Back Harrison will be supplanted bv Out land, and Walker, one of the suhsti tutes.

will take Outland's position at full back. The team will work hard each day in order to be tn prime condition for the inaian game. Fast Work at Yale. NEW HAVEN. Nov.

7. Ex-Cap tain Frank Hlnkey and Winter, Yale' famous end rush and tackle, respective ly, to-day put life into the practice of the football eleven. McBryde did not play. His condition is somewhat worse than reported. De Saullcs also did not play.

Coach Hlnkey took charge of all candidates for the end positions. The men were stormed at and coaxed until thev clayed like desperate men. Heffel finger did not return to-day. but he is expected to-morrow. As he has seen Harvard Dlav.

he will undoubtedly hav some new ideas for the guards and tackles to wont upon. Fallback Brooke Coming-. Chairman Temple, of the D. C. A.

football committee, yesterday received a letter from George Brooke, the famous ex-Pennsylvania fullback, in which he states that he is now fully recovered and will be in Pittsburg in a few days to take part in the remaining games to be played by u. et A. J. HI s-h School Defeats Kiskl. At P.

A. C. park yesterday the Pitts burg high school eleven defeated the Kisklmlnetas school team by a score of 17 to 0. High school made two touch downs in the first half and one In the FHINCETOXS WEAK BACKS. Three of Them Carried OS the Field Daring; a Practice Game.

PRINCETON. N. Nov. 7. Thinps seem to be going from bad to worse with the Princeton football team.

Dr. Wright to-day pleaded for the cripples, and urged that they need complete rest for day or two, but this afternoon two long halves of hard work were taken. and nearly all of the injured men were put in, two of them being carried out again. Young Hutchinson's ankle was so weak that at the start he had to favor it. That caused him a hard fall on his hip.

and he was picked up unable to use either limb. Dr. Wright says that' this -ijury settles the matter as far as Hutch inson is concerned. Beardsley also had to take his medicine. He played in brill iant stvle for half an hour, then twisted his lame knee again, and was carried to the side line.

CaDtain Kafer kept ud his good work at half, but will hardly replace Beards-ley. Avers played fullback in Wheeler's absence, and Duncan did good worn at quarter -after Hutchinson retired. The seven regulars remained in the rush line. The team showed some improvement in offensive work, but the scrubs were strong pnnush to score a touchdown. The 'varsity crossed their opponents' goal line tnree times.

ueer ana tmiDraiiu kicked the goals. MESSRS. AIXL AND BLISS. They Will Officiate la the Third La- trobe-Greeasbars; Game. Special to The Pittsburg Pest.

LATROBE. Nov. 7. Greensburgers feel sore over the- defeat 'of Saturday. Of course they had to find an excuse, even tamer than the fault they found with the first game.

This time it is on Referee Aull's decision, and last time the claim was that Latrobe won the game on a fluke. After the first game had been played the county seat fellows kicked on Umpire Williams, and Manager Berry very gentlemanly toid them if they were not satisfied to pick another man. and Laurie Bliss, of Yale, was selected. Ref eree Aull's work in the first game seetnod very satisfactory to the (ireenshurgt-r but after Latrobe won the second gam they had to hnd something to protest, so now they say Mr. Aull Is not competent to referee a game.

Manager Berry bus given them all the chance in the world. and it is doubted whether he will give in to their demands again. Latrobe is now in sl nnaltinn to make the demands, and from the present outlook Messrs Aull and Bliss will cruciate in tne tniru contest. If Greensburg refuses to play this one they forfeit 1300. for which a certified check is held as security.

HUXMSG AT CARXECSIE. Klondike Wins the Bird Seed Han dicap Coder Whip and Spar. A aood card and a fair day brought out a very big attendance at the Carnegie races yesterday. The opening event was won by Great Bear by two lengths, easily. Siva and War Song, in the second race.

GROVE CITY, Nov. 7. No little satisfaction is felt among the followers of football here over the showing made by the locals cgalnst the P. A. C.

Saturday. The fact that P. A. C. was only able to best Grove City by one touchdown on a wet and sloppy field makes the majority of the fans think the team will be able to defeat P.

A. C. on dry grounds. The additional weight of P. A.

team would work to their advantage on heavy grounds, while the condition of the grounds would practically interfere with end runs, which have thus far proved Grove City's best ground gainer. The next game of importance to be played by them will be with Latrobe on November It, and the new players, who had small chances to get into the team work before the P. A. C. game, will be in good shape by that time.

Two games with the Thiel and New Castle this week wiil serve to keep the team in trim, and it is expected the team will make as good a showing against Latrobe as was made against P. A. C. AMONG THE BOXERS. The 10-round bout between Mark Ker-wm, of Lnwrencevllle, and Eddie Gardner, of Wheeling.

Is now assured. The contest will take place at the.Millvale Opera House next Monday under the auspices of the Lawrenceville A. C. Gardner yesterday posted J25 at this office to guarantee his appearance In the ring. As Kerwin has already posted his money, and the club put up a forfeit of V0 to pull oft the fight, there is nothing now to interfere with the contest.

The club has secured the license, and the bout will positively take place. Billy Melsancs and Fred Schlade will appear in the only preliminary. The hacker of George Plante called at this office last night and announced that Plante was ready to meet Jack Bennett within thrr-e or four weeks at H5 pounds for from $100 to 5tt a side. Business is meant, and ns soon as Bennett or his representative says the word a meeting can be arranged, money posted and articles signed. Plante has been out of the ring for some time, and re-enters the ring at the earnest solicitation of his friends.

He is looking In splendid shape, as if he had been taking good care of himself.

This is not a disease, but, unfortunately, 9 women out of 10 suffering from, some obscure or complicated disease are led to believe by their physicians that their ohjv trouble is the change of life. Laboring; under this error, these women allow their health to disease daily gettini it stronger hold, while they -look forward to nature restoring their health. Chronic diseases develop slowly, and often pass the incurable point before creatine alarm. luoueands oave lost their lives through this mistake, which could have been prevented by correct diagnosis at the proper lime. This week the reader is requested to investigate the case of Mrs.

Lesr.ett. For some months her health had been failing, but her physician said It was her age, 90 she gave the matter little attention. For some time she had felt a pain in her back, around the kidneys. hlch was always worse after beicg on her feet for a few hours. At times the pain would extend downward into the thlgrhs.

and again run upward along the spine to the back of the neck. Chilly sensations would come over her at times, and hot Hashes frequently occurred. The nands and feet would burn like fire at timet, while cold chi.is ran up the bao. The backache increased and headache became a constant symptom. As the disease progressed she became so nervous trat she could scarcely hold in her hand a cup of tea.

The urine was scanty and highly colored. Frequently it had the color of muddy water, and would leave a heavy deposit on standing. Everv part of the body felt sore and bruised, and the veins under the skin had a dark bluish, color. The least effort or work would play her out so completely that ehe was good for nothing the balance of the day. fche also felt gloomy and discouraged, and everything seemed a great burden to her.

At last she became so miser Ma that she could scarcely remain out of bed. and concluded that something more thaa the change cf life was wrong with her. She conciud'id to consult a specialist. Sha was not long in selecting the proper one Dr. Shafer being the only phvsician that the people would recommend.

She lost no time in fending to him a samnle of urine for analysis. She was informed, that her kidneys were seriously diseased, and that amyloid degeneration was liable to occur at any time. Congestion of the pelvic tissues also existed, favoring the development of accesses. Under proper treatment she began to improve, and a short time was entirely cured. Speaking; cf her case.

Mrs. Lesnett snsd: "I had often read of cases just like mine, cured by Dr. Shafer. This led me to consult him, and, no doubt, paved my life. I would never consult a physician who is not recommended by those whe have taken his treatment.

Any doctor can advertise himself in the papers, but Dr. Shafer Is advertised and recommended by those he has cured. I also wish to recommend him highiy for what he has done for MRS. MARTHA LESNETT. Rovce Station.

Failure to Notify the Public of the Opening; Greatly Keeps Down the Attendance of the First Night. Amateur artists are having their Inning In Allegheny. The walls of the gallery in Carnegie building are lined with specimens of their work. The eontrlbutors.who are all within a radius of 100 miles of Pittsburg, are not necessarily members of the Pittsburg Art society, under whose auspice-s tho exhibition is given, and are not confined to any particular art school. They are composed simply of those who are interested in art in an amateur way, and who were willing that their work should enter into competition with that of others in their class in the vicinity.

The exhibition will continue all of this week. It opened last night, but owing to a failure to have that lact given publicity not nearly so many attended as would have had the public been Informed of the opening. The hanging of the pictures wus not begun until yesterday afternoon, that work being in charge of W. M. Westcnhageu, of this city.

Find ing that he wou.d have his work completed by o'clock he notified Manager George 11. Wilson of that fact, who decided that the cjK-nlug should take place at once. Even many members of the society did not know ot tho opening. Lur-ing the rest ot the week it is expected many visitors will be present dally. Thero ere on exhibition about 6'J pictures, including the work of some of the best amateurs or the vicinity.

Sotn agitation will soon be tarte4 in behalf of the art gallery and library of the Allegheny Carnegie ilbrary acc'irding to Chairman Hugh Morrison, of th-i library committee of councils. The committee met last night and ordered the payment of some bills. Then a casual talk was Indulged In over the affairs of the institution, it catne about through the Interest aroused in the present visit of Andrew Carnegie to th! city and the events In connection with Founder's day at th Pittsburg Carnegie institute. Chairman Morrison suggested that the art gallery in the Allegheny building seems to have been riegiect-d by Northslda citizen. He thought that some of tha-wealthy citizens of Allegheny should interest thrmselves mere and w- to the purchase of pictures whlcih might be h'irig there a pe-nnanent collection.

To- much attention, he thought, was diverted to the llttsburg art galleries which wre attracting support from that iu of the Tivt-r. Librarian W. M. Ktevenson also polutM out the fact that tho library was bei rfl-) lng contracted for thu work it was fA r-formlng, and said It would net be letft before something would have to be dfltc to enlarge it. Afir the meeting Mr.

Morrison stated was not ready to sny what steps would be taken, nnd would not know until some prominent. Alle-ghcnlans were conferred with in regard to the matter. WRECKS OX THE RAIL.
