The heat had become so intense that there was much apprehension as to its possible consequences. There was one case of sunstroke, which came near proving fatal. The party is, at this writing, quite improved, however, aud is in a fair way for complete recovery. THK HACKS. The races now progressing at the Driving Park have been up to this time a great success.

There is a full representation of the "Regulars." The certainty with which these "Regulars" get, to all races is, by the way, something of a curiosity to thosri not-acquainted with the business. They are invariably on hand, and nearly always manage to be on the winning side. Horse racing is, evidently, a business which they quit; thoroughly understand The weather has been exceptionally pleasant. A very full attendance has enjoyed the snort each day. AU agree in saying that the trotting has b-en unusually good and that the management has been successful ic presenting a good variety as to th races and in securing fjiir and e.orupetmit management.

The much hoped for improvement in oil matters still appear to lx on so far ahead in fact as to be entirely out of sight. Bradford producers are still experiencing much trouble in getting their oil ru n. Thousands of barrels continue to run to waNTedail.

The fact that ir future delivery, is oft -re I so much below present prices indicates a small degree of confidence that even the price now prevailing wiil be kept up. The oil producers are, howexrer, about as active: as ever in looking up new fields. We are not likely to have much better times until there is a grear degree of success in the matter of dry holes. The present territory must in a measure exhausted and the fossihility of new weiis very materially limited lie lure the businees can be much better.

I HOSE, II K.H h( HIHIL iKUlN The Aiiitrmnu (m Iee Idrd- Frof. All) lot eilvatlon Puatoof The High S-hoil C-ommitteeof the Central Hoard of hltication be.d a special meetifig last evening fir the parpot-e of iuvesti gating certain charges trougiit by ciiizens against the mode of examining candidates for admission to the igh Th regular Chairman, Mr. Aughenbaugh, was ahsitit, and Mr. Alex. Pitcairn was call to preside.

The first case taken up was the complaint of Mr. l. S. Anderson, who charge! that his daughter failed to pass the required examination in one of the studies because there was not enough time allowed on the first day of the examination. He claimed that the first day, when she failed to get the rj'iired percentage in her studies, the c'as was dismissed at half past three o'clock, while ou the md day the can didates were given time until five o'clock, ami sue received the required percentage on the studies which she was examined on that day.

He claimed if she had had tbe same time the first day she would have passed. Dr. Jillson, Principal of the High School stated that toe classes were is-missed at half past three o'clock on bith 1vh, and that there had been no discriminat ion The committee etude 1 that the rules of the board establishing a certain rmr- Hutage to be attained, before a candidate for admission is allowed a re-exarr ination. be adhered to. This disposed of the case.

as Mr. Anderson's daughter did not reach tht percentage entitiiug her to a re-ex- ammanon. The other case to be investigated was the charge of cruel treatment preferred bv Mr. Stouey agaii st Prof. Ailyn.

Mr. S'oney alleged that Prof Ailyn was brutal in bis conduct against his daughters, which caused one cf them so much nervousness that she failed to pass the exatninaton. Mr. M. A.

Woodward, attorney at law, appeared on behalf of Mr. Stoney, but Chairman Pitcairn decided that no lawyers would be allowed to speak, as the com- mit'ee merely desired facts and was competent to. judge for itself. Prof. Ailyn is absent in the East studying in a medical college, and could nut be present, but had sent Ins side of the case ty maii to Mr.

A ugheubaugh, chairman the committee, who was absent. The committee thought it was not right to hear one side without tbe documents of the other i-ide leing presented, so on motion of Mr. TeesH, the committee adj jurned to meet at the call of Mr. A nghen baugh the regular chairman, who had Mr. Allyn's case in cnarge.

The barges Agaiut Taper. The sub-Police Committee met iast evening to investigate the charges against the colored officer, Scott Taper.

Taper is charged wiLh having unlawfully arrested Eliza Parsons as accessory to the Greeu-Uichards murder. Tbe meeting was called order and before any action, whatever, was taken the Chair read a section from the city code which provides that all charges against police otiicers must be preferred before the Chief before any action is taken by tbe Committee. As this was not done in this case the Committee adjourned without taking any action, the Owing lu the fcroail IMnmeirr the Water Main. To the Editors of The Fitrghufijf, I'oif Complaints mie from parts of the city between the rivers of the scarcity of water, and people cau't understand why it is so, when there are three reservoirs, the lower aud uppw on Bedford street and the large ones on Hiland aveuue, and two sets of works to supply them from the river; and they can't imagine why the greates" scarcity is in the lowest part of the old city. Nearly ail the pippin the old portion of the city which have been in une for twenty-live or thirty years, are very small in diameter, and the rust and its accumulations continuously reduces the size of the flow.

The old pipe in Sinithrield street, for instance, was a four-inch pipe when put in, maybe thirty years ago, and must now be one-third less in orifice. When these old pipes were laid, the consumption of water was email. Now, with bath tubs, water closets and several water taps to nearly every large house, the consumption is very large, and the small pipes can't supply the demand. It don't make any difference how much water you have In the res ervoirs as long as you have the small pipes in the main lines, and the great consump tion, you cannot have a supply in tbc; old city. If the main lines were thirty inches or more there would be plenty of water in them and their connections for that portion of the city, even from the lower bain on Bedford street, as long as that basin was kept full.

If the main lines were enlarged the lat eral supplies would be sutlirient, but it ii claimed that the old pipes of the lateral lines could not stand the pressure of any Tpoervoir hut the lower bssin. The pressure of that bain don't exceed fiftv rounds to the square inch. That of the Hilanl avenue is 130 pounds to the square inch. The old pipes will not (as it is alleged) stand more than seveaty pouuds to the son are inch. If vou abandon the old pumping works and flow the water from Hiland basin the lower basin on Webster street, and en- dancer rciir main lines, you can hare plenty of water at nearly rifty pounds prcs sure to the square inch.

But in that case you will have retair the lower hasin. When the city concluded to bu' nw works the intention was not only roabandon rV-eoid pvmjiinrj works, but the old r'-xentjir also. To supply the old citv from Hiland av-nu. at a pressure of 10 pounds, would not be pracricabJA, because ppes, old or new, would not stand the prepare. The intention was to put in autcmatb valve breaks, bv wbifh the pressure could be fixed nitmnticaVy, not to exceed or be less than a certain amount.

If it would take a pressure of Sfventy-rlve pounds to throw the water from th jIhm over the highest houses, and the piprs would s'and that pressure, thpn the valves would set at that pressure, and in that case the whole expenditure for steam tire engines couid be saved. This is the intention, and not more than rive or tix auto-natic valves would b- reonired. which would cost mor than tw-T mttis' pav of the Fire Department Can we then abandon the old work and reservoirs aud depend oniy on the Hiland avemie rrservojrs and the pumping works at NegiHT a run These two basins will contain, when filled, one hundred and twenty million gallons of water. The consumption now of the citv letwee the rivers is over eight millions da.Jy, ami if there was larger pipes in the old city t-ive the How, and all the petitions on fl for water were granted and the piies laid therefr.r, the consumption would be near donble tha amount A reasonable estimate would fifteen millions daily. One pair of the new engines working rfxifulhi and fviiitint'tuiu would supp about twenv-tive million gallons in every twenfv-four hoars.

It appears then that, one pair of engines could not supply the resont demand by running in the day time alone, but must he run at night aUo, particularly if any water is to be stored tor the emergencies that fre- quntiv arise. With the natural increase of consumr tioT within The next ten vears from date we now have it is evident the one pa; will verv noon be continuously taxed to kep up the supply. It is true the engines are large but so their dn'y and the present and prospective demand on them; and it bait own tested ar.d demonstrated by test that their dutv in raising up water is greater at less cost of runninar than any other pumping engines hretofore used. It is evident then that with proper sized mains, the necessary automatic valves and the successful operation or the engines there wonld be an ample supply of water, and as the work is now about to bgin on the influent pi pea, this water tken nines above the city and from the middle of the river will be very pure There is no mystery about the siz of the pipes. Automatic valves have been long in use, and are well known.

The reservoirs will hold water. Will the engines do work Is there any mystery about them AH pumping engines worked by steam have the boilers to raise steam. All have ra I re tubers, 1 i nders, ai vespels, pistons and pumps and plungers, and incidents of mechanism the same as these new engines, ami the only diffe ranee between them is in the application of the power of tho well known mechanism to the act of pumping. The Cornish engine, in use for one huu dred years still used to this day to a greater extent, than ever, a recognized safri an durable stand by, but slow, has ranked as one of the bst of engines for th3 purpos ot and raising water In it the mechanism of the engine raises tho nlunger within the pump, when sum cienflv raised the plunger is let go, and specific gravity or tbe weight of the plunger displaces the water in the pump and forces up to where it is desired. In these new engines the innovation is a leam of iron, by tbe shape and adjustment ot which tf-o pumps and plungers, instead or ot.f are utilized by toe came or annoKt the same expenditure of their steam and eugine power, aud the water is displaced ar.d raided by the plungers by thir specific gravity, in alternate strokes, with less con cussion and with more than double the rar-i Tb re has never ben any trouble with any of the beams (one to each engine) aud nine hrs ever been contemplated or feared either by the engineer, contractor or mem brs of the committee If the eugines have shown any weakness.

or br ken, it has ai wave been in seme other part than a beam some part of similar character to be found in any engine of the present day, or for the last twenty-five vears. Engines of the sfz of these should be made of strong iron, for they have a heavy work to do, and if They required the tensile strength lately shown to be in the new engine iu Allegheny, they should have been so constructed. Their smooth working has proved the info grity of the plan, and if they are repaired to do their duty, as they are capable of. 'hey will quick. nil the reservoirs, and i.y the laying of the new mains we will have plenty of water; and moderate water rents will pay all the interest of the debt for con.

struciifcg the works. B. The Iavlt Island Uara, The Iavis Island dam, of which so much has been said for and against by tbe dif-terent interests at this point that would naturally be a fleeted by the improvement, is rapidly approaching completion. When a-nipletcd it wiil be the largest lock and dam in the world. It is the tlrat attempt to introduce the "movable" dam system in this country.

The machinery for working ihe gates, are very powerful and as pertcct in construction as pcssible to secure-. Three hundred men are employed at the work, most of whom are engaged npon the shore wall. Over cubic yards of cut aud broken stone, and 10.0C0 barrels of hydraulic cement will be used to complete the work. The lock, when finished, will have a clear length of foet betweeu the gates, and a clear width of 110 feet, and will hold twelve feet depth of water. This lock can be tilled in four minutes.

The co fie datu will ha fifteen feet wide, and the length of the dam proper will be l.JuO feet. Ihe whole wots is ot the most soiid and elaborate character, and when completed and iu workicg order will be a wonderful work. A t'AKFLt3 diet, a change of water, or cold settling in the bowels very brings on at this seaon of the year, an obstinate diarrho or some serious affection of the stomach or trowels, imperiling the life of the patient.

The shady groves on ihe Mount bad been thoroughly improved for the occasion, and are in much better thape than at any former meeting By the enterprise of several prominent individuals, some of whom are identified with religious interest, a large supply of cool spring water had been, furnished. The water is elevated by of a force pump from a reeer voi i to a large tan on an elevated portion of the camp-grounds. Within the circle, two fountains, crnamentd with ferns and flowers, have been constructed, and add coaaidefsHy the attractiveness of the nrroandirjg.

Tbe exercises opened last evening with a song of praise, -he singing of wh ch was conducted by Rev.

He has beu for miny years a leading lieht of tbe Methodist Church. During tbe mst forty years be had attended every camn meeuns with the exception of one. As a'readv mentioned, the Doctor preached the ooeninff sermon. He chose for bis text Vi rut Thessalonians, fifth chapter and 231 ersA The very God of peace sanctify yon wholly; and I pray k1 that your whole spirit and eoul and body be preserved blameless with the coming of oar Lord Jeas Christ." The sermon was an excellent one, abounding in the most fraternal and earnest expressions of Christain friendship and sturdy doctrine. The doctor preached with most remarkable freedom and power.

His remarks displaced earnest thought and were interspersed with sharp and tell in points. Ha said he did not recognize holiness in the exterior and had no syrup thv with long faced, sour godliness. The religions, he thouebt, should be joyous. and even Molly," a word, be thought, he had nver befor used. He meant that thev shonld be "iolly" with a proper spirit, earnest in the good work and with jubilant hearts.

Tbeir duty should be a joy to them. Elongated sanctity, as he termed it, he could not approve of. What he de sired to see was that all should be happy and appear to enjoy a religious life. He was also averse to philosophizing over re-lifirions matters. Prayer and devout sup- plication at tbe throne of grace was what needed in the work of salvation.

In the course of his sermon, he referred to a meeting some time since held at les-plaines, Illinois. At that time while the doct was addressing his congregation, he -was interrupted by a tall, lank, cadaverous Individual, who had evidently grown lean by excessive study. The latrer said, "I like you, sir, but don't agree with yon. 1 wish you would discuss tbe matter right here with me. Dr.

Inskip said he suggested a better plan to the stranger, and that was that they both should kueel in prayer to God. Finally the stranger was persuaded to kneel, which be did, selecting a place near a tree in the vicinity. After be had offered his supplications to God, he came back to the doctor and said, "I've got it now. Vou are right. I am convinced." Several other anecdotes of a like charac ter were related, which were well appre ciated by the large audience assembled on Ml Se wick ley.

Tbe entire sermon (which for want of space cannot be reported) resembled those which the old Methodist warriors used to preach, and the indica tions are that tbe meeting is to be a return to tbe old forms of Methodist worship Dr. Inskip closed his remarks with a profound and earnest appeal to tbe congregation to be rilled with ail the fullness of God, after which the benediction was pronounced and tbe congregation quietly dispersed. It is expected tbe camp meeting this eeason will be a very successful one. large number will doubtless be present during the coming week and fortnight. Many of thoe present are earnest workers in tbe cause of salvation.

Tbe probability is that tbe meeting will ba tbe most suc cessful that has ever been held on the grounds for years. Rev. m. Taylor, common! known as "California Taylor, will be present to-day and Sunday, and take part in the exercises. PATT RSON GKOVE.

VALLEY CAMP. Special Correspondence of Plttsrmrtfh Post.) Valley Camp, A.

V. R. R.July 18, It was a happy thought that led to the new departure in camp grounds. After ail tbe lamenting over which some please to term the "good old fashioned ways, confess that these broad avenues and tasteful cottages with their comforts please ine better than the old ways and tbe dis-co forts of the old canvass tents or the later board shauties caiied cottages by conrtesy. There is a world of sense also in this combination of the purely religious aspect of the old camp meetiug with the weeks of Test and recreation that have made the camp ground of this day a home in its broadeet and highest sense, wherein there is not only a bright, happy, useful life, but where there is worbiu of that One who alone has made this idea of home possible.

There is certainly no reason why the hun dreds who occupy these cottages through these long, hot days of July and August. and whose life is made happier and who sleep more refreshing by the cool breezes and the suade of these broad spreading trees, houid be thereby unfitted for the ten days of worship. But I did not intend to make this a plea for tbe modern cauip ground, out to speak of the proiieots of this ground and the meeting for this year. Already nearly a of the cottages, now nearly fifty in number, are occupied. Every one that was for rent has been eagerly taKen, and if there wre a score more there would be no difficulty finding tenants- Several new cottages have been erec ted this year, and ree more are under contract.

The Association have made some valuable improvements. A. substantial board walk has been laitt from the station to the gate, a road has been graded extending futirely around the grouuds, and a house bniit for the Superintendent of the grounds. The hotel has been entirely remodeled, the rooms have been enlarged, the oid bttuks torn out and their places supplied with spring b'ds and mattresses, the floors a part of one of the dining rooms made into a reception room and neatly carpeted aud piano piaced in it, and the unrig room remodeled aud made more comfortable. Mr.

H. nts. an old hotel keeper, has takn charge, and good accoiu-miMiations can br? had at nominal iats. The arrangements for the meeting, which begins the tirst week in August, are not fuiiy completed, but enough progress has been made to warrant the assertion that it will ba excellent. Among tbe clergy already engaged are Bishop Bowman, ChapUiu Mot a be.

TKUIA Of A lOISU HOMiX. A A arrow jrap from 11 log La Air. Elsewhere mention is made of the experience of a poor girl that arrived on a tramp from Kansas. After this uo fortunate had bten attended to a gentleman brought another Innocent locking young woman to th Mayor's erHoe, and stated that he aod wandering in the streets with a dibrputal. colored woman, and ae-ing that eLe ev lentiy was from the country and appeared irnoc itt, he ii quirtd her why she was in the company of the colored wou-an.

hhe answered anxiously that the wuluau prumoe4 Wlake Ler to ht-f a to corted her to tbe Mavnr'a office, 'lbe young woman told Clerk Het9i that she is married and reside in Younetown, Ohio. Her name is El'ziteh rich wager. She was on a visit to friends up the Monocga- hela river, and came down on the boat yesterday morning. I'pon going iuto a store she round that her jcket had been pinfeed of all the money she had. The colored woman evidently saw that she was in distress and asked her what was wrong.

Mrs. Sch wager told he. The woman apked whether she had no relations, to which rs. Sobwager answered that her husband had an aunt named Schwager in the city, but she did not know where to find her. The colored woman told her she knew tbe aunt, and would pilot her there.

In tbis manner she came into the company of the colored woman, suspecting nothing wrong. Tl-e intention of the negress. as can easily bt imagined, was to lead the young woman astray, which she would have done by luring her to some of the disreputable where she would have been held by force, if she had not been so fortunately rescued, 'Squire Heisel procured her a ticket to Youngstown and sent her home. THEIR SEW QUARTERS. The Handsome lEoonu or the Sportsmen's Association.

Laadable Ofcjeet sratl SncressTal Werk-Kaptd fjrowih ind Id-creasing Popularity. The handsome new quarters of the Sportsmen's Association of Western Pennsylvania are now abcut completed. The Association have leased the building, No. 75 Fifth avenne, for a pericd of ten yearn, and here is where they have made the ira provements. An entire new front was put to the building, and, consisting as it does, of fancy brick work, the front is one of the most striking on the avenue.

The building has also been thoroughly overhauled and rtmrdelled intide. Entrance it gained to the new quarter from Fifth avenue by a pair of stairs. The beautiful embossed glass in the lower and upper doors and tbe modest hut pretty little chandelier in the hallway are the first improvements that strke the observer. KFADISd, CARD AND BILLIARD ROOMS. Arrived at the second storv, to tbe richt the visitor finds the reading room.

The floor is revered with a Brussels carpet of rich pattern Luxuriant sofas and chairs, files containing all the daily papers of this city and many of other cities, and convenient tables elp to make up the furnish-mentA. The mantle piece is one of the most beautiful specimens of Messrs. Bissell artUtic skill, and adds much to the rich appearance of the apartment. A pas-sage way, concealed by rich curtain, leads to the card room on the left of the stair wav. Here the same elegant furnish menhs are seen.

Tables and cards are provided here for the amusement of members. The furniture for tbis and other apartments was furnished by M. Irwin Son; the carpets, window blinds, oil cloths, by Messrs. McOlin-tock and the beautiful chandelier" and gas fixtures by Messrs. W'eldon Keliy.

To the rear ou the second storv is located the billiard room. Six new tables four of them pool tables have places. E'evatd sea's are arranged to the walls on either side for the convenience of spectators. The Moor is covered with lignum, bright and fresh in appearance and soft to touch nf foot. A novel bit of taste is seen in the pieces of bright carpet arranged under the tables.

Tbe magnificent sky-light lets down a full flood of light upon th tables and makes the room very cheery Water closets and wash stands are located to the rear of the room, which is certainly a model of neatness, taste and convenience for a billiard room. OTHER OKN'AMEXTS THE MfSEFM. The walls in all the apartments are covered with fancy paper furnished hy Geter C. Sbidle. The embossed glass in the doors and in the windows is very hand some.

Xtae pictures are ail of an appro-priate character for the building, a stg having a place on one door, fishing tackle on another, guns, powder horn and gauie bag on another. Messrs. Nelson Co. of Market street, furnished the triads. The museum is located on the third nxr front.

This room has not yet been com pleted, but. will be furnished with che same splendor displayed below. Here The meet ings of the club will be held. When completed the museum will, perhaps, furnish most interest to the visitor. The associa tion now have about two thousand speci mens, to which they make daily accessions.

With very few exceptions the specimens, whether birds, fish or animals, have been furnished by the members, and serve as trophies to attest their skill ith rod or gun. Many of the exhibits bae a carious history. Two of those the piscatorial line that should be mentioned are the heads of immense pike. One, weighing (7J pounds, wai captured in the Youghiogh'-ny. Tbe other is nearly as large.

It was captured in a little lake near Meadvilie. MEMBERSHIP OFFICERS. A word about the association wh'ch has expended nearly 510. 000 in fifing ut the building on the plans prepared by Architects Drum Steen would be in place in tbis connection. The club was organized in 1876 and has kept constantly increasing in membership till their numbers marie the present commodious quarters a necessity.

At present there are two handra-d and sixty names on the roll of membership. Under the by-laws the membership is limited to three hundred. Among the members are many of the most prominent residents of the two cities. Many of them too are leading church members, so that the reader must not infer that the name "Sportsmen" implies frivolous amusement or genteel social habit, which the strictly orthodox might consider crime. Neither drinking nor gambling is allowed wirhin tbe building.

Following are the present officers of Association: President, Jlobert Oaiz-11; Vice Presidents, Col. B. F. Hurl, I. C.

The object of the Association is "the pro tection and propagation of game aud game fish, the enforcement of all laws and ordi nances against the unlawful killing or sell ing of the same: tue advancement of fellow ship, unanimity, and a higer standard of action among sportsmen. This quotation.

from tbe charter ot incorporation, sIiowk the object to be laudable and the work of the Association proves it. Between and lOO.OoO flab have been tranferrr-d from the fish hatcheries to the mountain streams in esern Pennsylvania at the expense of the Association. Last spring between 15,000 and 2 were put out about Johnstown and Cuiontown. Ke ceatly a reward was offered for the largest number of hawk and owl scalps captured in any of the surrounding counties and evidence was received that nearly 2,503 of those destructive pests had been killed. Last fall a large nm tier of quail were trapped, protected during the winter and set at liberty upon the return warm weather.

At present the associa tion are strictly entorcing the rish and game laws by prosecuting every offender against whom they can secure evidence. The association his the svrnpathv and good will of all our let citizens and the general reader of The Post will join ns in congratulating the members upun the completion of their handsome new quarters as ell as upon their rapid growth and good work accomplished by them. lbe Ahrcnldra. Akron, Ohio, ha earned a wide notori ety for being the point above all others to furnish tbe greatest number of scandals, elopements and otter sinfulness. The latest case of social sin is that wherein the wife of a prominent gentleman encaged in an extensive manufacturing establishment of that place made an attempt to elope with man belonging to this State on Wednes- lay.

The husband, however, interfered with the wife's arrangements by seizing her trunk at tbe depot and preventing her eparture. Tbe wite thereupon brought suit against her husband, Mr. rrauk Reese, charging him with assault and bat tery. The wife claimed that the trunk contained nothing but personal property and offered to compromise the suit if her trunk was returned and she be allowed to fpart on her journey. Thus the matter rested at last accounts.
