APR I 1905 ii Pear no man, and do justice to all men." Vol. II SEWICKLEY, PA., SATURDAY, APRIL I, 1905 No. 29 Edgeworth Borough Council A Full Attendance and an Interesting Meeting—Special Meeting To-Night. Another interesting meeting of Edgeworth borough council was held "on Monday evening of this week in the cozy council chamber above McGullough's store and every member responded to the roll call. The only absentee was Burgess Russell. After reading the minutes of the previous meeting, which were adopted as read, Mr. Houston presented a resolution fixing the salary of Borough Solicitor to $400 per annum. A representative of the Bell Telephone Gompany presented an ordinance covering the erection of poles and of laying underground conduits, etc., within the borough. It was held over for further consideration. GDuncil authorized the issuing of a certificate of indebtedness for $3,500. The police and light committee was instructed to place several new lights in the borough. The street light which was on trial for some time was not accepted. Mr. McGullough, of the fire committee, reported that the firemen had received_ part of the equipment which was ordered some time ago. There were several letters received from civil engineers with bids for making a survey of the borough and establishing street lines, etc.,"but no definite action was taken, and council decided to hold a special meeting this evening to consider this very important legislation. After some minor business several ordinances were passed finally. They will be found in full in this issue. Adjourned. Successful Operation. We are pleased to note that Mr. Gharles Neely, son of D. L. S. Neely, who was operated on recently at the Mercy hospital for appendicitis, is on a fair way to recovery, as the operation was a successful one. This will be gratifying news to the many friends of Mr. Neely, who is a popular young man and a member of the High School Mandolin Glub. Word reached this office that Mrs. D. T. McGabe was taken to the Mercy hospital, on Thursday, suffering from appendicitis. Will Hold Reunion. The Spanish war veterans will hold a smoker and reunion at the residence of Mr, William Woods, 257 Thorn street, on Thursday evening, April 6th, at 8.30 o'clock. The purpose of this gathering will be to form a permanent organiza tion and every man who enrolled is invited to present. Card of Thanks. Mrs. John Little and family of Centennial avenue, wish to express their thanks to their many friends and acquaintances who so lovingly assisted them, and for their kindness and sympathy extended to them during the hours of their befeavement. Painrul Injury. Mr. Leo Egler, the popular young clerk at Ghris Becker & Son's meat market, met with a very painful accident early in the week when he lacerated his left hand between the thumb'and index finger with a cleaver. The wound required several stitches and will incapacitate Mr, Egler for some days. FLIRTATION DANCE. One of the Many Popular Features of the Big Minstrels. Mr. James S. Gray, who is engineering the entertainment of the "Big Minstrels," to be given in the Auditorium on 'the evenings of April 27th and 28th, for the benefit of the firemen, has many good things in store for those who attend these entertainments. Among the features is a "flirtation dance" from "The Strollers" that will be the finest turn that has appeared on the local stage for some time. Enthusiasm is running high and many prominent men are taking an active part in this minstrel, and success is assured. The advertising matter is being posted and the reserved seat chart will be found at'Walker's pharmacy on the morning of April 11th, and you had better buy your tickets now so that you can get in line on that date if you wish a good seat. There are already some seven hundred tickets sold and the advertising space on the program is all disposed of. The Sewickley Troop Band will turn out and discourse some popular music, and in fact everybody is lending a hand. The "Big Min- have struck the popular chord. WILL VISIT CALIFORNIA. Contemplated Trip Will Hardly Re- semble One Made Years Ago. Mr. Joshua S. Peers, a "Forty- niner" who crossed the plains in company with Mr. John Anderson, of Gentennial avenue, shortly after the discovery of gold in Galifornia, will leave about the middle of April for Los Angeles to visit his daughter at that place. Mr. Peers will aiso stop en route at Topeka, Kans., Where he will visit his sons. During his first trip over the plains Mr. Peers kept a correct diary, and he is ripe with reminiscences of those exciting days, and in ail probability we can give our readers some interesting articles from his pen in the near future. A The Knights of Pythias Held Interesting Session Tuesday Evening. A NUMBER OP VISITORS PRESENT. One of the most interesting sessions of the year was the one on Tuesday evening, in Gastle Hall, when the rank team of No. 426 conferred the work of Knight on two candidates. The exemplification of the work was fine and won words of commendation from the visiting brothers who were present. This team has a reputation, and it is worth coming out to see. There has been a deep interest taken in the work and No. 426 and her team ranks high in this order. The meeting on next Tuesday evening will be of especial interest to every member, as matters of much import to the lodge will be up for consideration, and every member is urged to attend. Not "Dad" Lynch. The rumor was current that "Dad" Lynch, the well-known river fireman, was drowned at Bellaire recently when the towboat "George Gook" ran into a pier. Investigation developed the fact that the man drowned was not our friend, and that Mr. Lynch is still in the land of the living. Pine Concert. On April 17th the Goncert Gompany of the Ithaca Conservatory of Music will give a fine entertainment in the Baptist Ghurch under the auspices of the B. Y. P. U. The programme includes vocal duets, harp selections and readings by the different members of the company, which comes highly recommended, The "News Budget" of Pittsburg, has the following to say of them. 8*The Ithaca Conservatory Goncert Gompany, of Ithaca, N. Y., scored quite a success, Each member of the Gompany is certainly an artist,* performing her part in such a manner as to bring rounds of applause from the audience." Tickets can be had from members of the B. Y. P. U. for SO cents. ■M
