i'ROUND THE WORLD
In Two Hours, Accompanied by Nellie
Bly, the Little lecturer.
HEIGHT CHAT ABOUT HER TRIP,
In Which an American Girl Beat a French
man's Imajiiiarj Time.
THE KEWSPAPER WOMEN'S BAKQTJET
Jfellie Bly, the famous, plucky little
traveler, with her tiny hand in the friendly
clasp of Mr. Erasmus "Wilson, tripped ont
on the platform of Old City Hall last even
ing at the appointed time. Before her ap
pearance the audience spent their time in
admiring the beautiful floral offerings that
graced the platform ; but from the moment
the petite traveler appeared the flowers were
totally ignored, and her own girlish figure
and bright, animated countenance, coupled
with her interesting chat, claimed the atten
tion and admiration of everyone in the hall.
The little lady was attired in the stylish
brown costume which was manufactured in
five hours by a 2f ew York tailor, and which
enrobed her dainty self on her trip around
the world. Her hair was worn in the school
girl style which she has always affected, and
which is so becoming to her, with a pretty,
fluffy bang. She carried a cluster of loveiy
roses, and on the table by which she took
her stan was a magnificent bouquet of the
same flows, sent by the "Woman's
Club. On the other side of the
table was a beautiful floral world,
supported on delicate wires from a founda
tion of choice blossoms, the pift of Elliott.
The world was composed of white carnations,
and the land outlined by red flowers of the
same variety.
OKIGI- OF HKR TRIP.
In the most natural and unaffected man
ner, thatcharmed anddelighted herjisteners,
Kellie Bly began relating her experiences by
telling how she first thought of making her
journey round the world; how on Sundays
she was wont 10 puzzle her inventive little
brain for ideas with which to astound her
editor Monday morning, and how on one
particular Sunday the tired brain refused
to suggest anything, and as a consequence
the felt iuat a trifle blue.
and wished she were on the other side of I
me worm, xnere was me iaea! vny
couldn't she be on the other side of the
world? And with that as a starting point
she began to think of Jules Verne's tale,
and wonder if she couldn't beat his
imaginary record.
Going down to a steamer's ship office the
next morning.and studying guides she found
she co aid make the trio some days sooner
than "Phineas Fogg" did. Then she went
to her newspaper office. Seating herself
beside the editor she waited for him to ques
tion her, as .she had some fears about the re
ception her suggestion would receive.
When her superior said: ""Well, have
yon any ideas lor this week's wort?" she
replied, "Yes, one," and continued to tell
him what that one idea was. The visit
which she and the editor made to the busi
ness manager who, by the way, is a very
important lactor iu a newspaper office was
highly amusing.
HE TATORED A MJUT.
The business manager was not impressed
with the idea, and even if it was carried out,
he tbonght a man should be appointed
to make the trip. He objected to a
woman doing it, on general princi
ples, and on the trunk principle, also,
but Nellie, with her usual determination,
informed th-! all important personage that
she was going nroun.i the world, and he,
with ihe same unction, informed her she
was not coinc for that paper. "Whereunon
she told him that if she did not go for that
paper she would go for some other one, and
lie succumbed, but it was over a year after
that heated cenversation before she actually
started on her journey.
One night, quite la'te, she received word
that she was wanted at the office, and upon
arriving there, was asked if she could start
around the world the morning after the
next. She replied in the affirmative, and
after her night's rest, spent the day in pre
par.ng for her trip. Her description of
her departure from New York and her
feelings thereon was almost pathetic in its
naturalness. Their trials the first day out,
with the inevitable seasickness, were deci
dedly laughable the way the little woman
related them, but her indomitable will, for
which she is so justly famed and determina
tion to conquer all 'obstacles, came to her
rescue, even in that instance, and the horri
ble malady that makes an ocean journev a
thing of dread, retired before the battle
arrav of Nellie.
LIKE riTTSBUBO OKCE WAS.
Although they informed the young lady
when she reached London that it was day
light, she said she almost doubted the fact,
it was so dark something like Pittsburg.
She spent three hours there, and says she
saw about as much of London as English
men do whocome to America and then re
turn and write a book on Americans. The
English railway carriage was the object upon
which Nellie expended some of the wit with
which her lecture teemed. Her visit to
Jules Verne and his wife at their home, was
very interesting, and the trip from the land
ing to the Yerne mansion, which was made
in carriages, and upon which Nellie and
Mrs. Verne were companions, evoked much
laughter, as Nellie could not speak French
and Mrs. Verne was not conversant with the
English language; consequentlv they
smiled at each other and pressed hands in a
lover-like style that resulted in a mutual
admiration society, and real conventional
French kissing, with the example set by
Mrs. Verne, terminated the pleasant little
visit
A peep into the study of Mr. Verne dis
closed a very meagerly'furnished apartment
in the attic, which did not corroborate the
little lady's idea that all writers of great
books had luxurious apartments in which
to wort, and that all she lacked to become
a noted writer was the luxury. Her re
cital of her experiences on an Eng
lish ship was intensely funny,
and her sprightly manner of relating her
trials made even an insignificant incident,
interesting and witty.
"WASTED TO SIAERT HER.
The different men who wanted to marry
her were splendid subjects upon which to
point the shaft of her wit, and Nellie made
good use of them both iu her lecture
and in person. Her journey through
Italy and the disappointment she
felt at the sunny skies being
obscured by fogs preceded a little incident
in which she squelched some Italians who
offended her, by telling them through an
interpreter, that she had seen their friends
in America, but they always traveled with
a monkey and a hand-organ.
In the lands of China and Japan the
vciuca uuu pu were interesting to Nellie
and to the audience last night,
and her Christmas luncheon was
eaten in the Temple of the Dead. Her
journey to San Francisco was described, and
the bad weather through which it was made
also. The engineer was quite loyal and
had all around his engine room the words
"For Nellie Bly, I'll Win or Die," aud at
one time it looked as though his obsequies
would be performed.
From Sin Francisco to New York, and
he royal welcome which greeted her there,
formed the conclusion of her talk, and the
principal souvenir that she brought back
with her was a monkey, which she pur
chased in preference to a widower that Jules
Verne insinuated she might possibly find.
Nellie was bright, entertaining and witty
throughout the entire evening, and perfectly
natural.
HONORED BI A FEAST.
The World Glrdler Banqueted by the News
Piper Girls Gentlemen Were Exclnded
17 tne Fair Sex A 1.1st of the Toasts and
Responses,
Nellie Bly is responsible for a great many
things, and the latest is a banquet of news
paper women, the first of the kind on record.
In her honor it was given last evening at the
Hotel Schlosser, with closed doors,
that the male members of the fra
ternity might not gaze with envious
eyes upon the beautv of the scene. In a
charming little dining room the ladies were
assembled, and found the table laid for
them, one of the prettiest ever seen in Pitts
burg. It was oblong in shape and upon a
long plate glass mirror in the center rested
a rustic arbor design, upon which orchids in
every variety held their pretty heads up for
admiration.
The design was of course reflected in the
mirror and the effect was indescribably
beautiful. Alongside of each cover a grace
ful corsage bouquet ol orchids was placed,
and the entire whole, with its snowy napery,
handsome cut glass, silver and flowers, was
thrown in pretty relief by the rich carpet
and furnishings of the room. The dinner
cards were typical of Nellie Bly's
famous trip, the lines of the globe
traced in water color on circular cards, and
the route made by Miss Bly clearly defined.
Miss Eva Muller is the artist to whom the
ladies are indebted for the dainty dinner
cards which serve as souvenirs of the event
The menu cards were unique and apropos
of the profession of which the banqueters
were members. The ladies were seated as
follows: Mrs. Charles I. Wade (Bessie
Bramble), at the head of the table; to her
right hand, Nellie Bly, as guest of honor.
Then on round the table were Miss Hyde,
Chronicle Telegraph; Miss Marion C. Gal
liher, the Press; Miss Muller, Pittsburg
Bulletin Miss M. D. Coyle, Miss "Walruer,
East End Society Weict; Miss Janey M.
Coard. the AUeghenian; Miss A. M. Nevin,
the Leader; Mrs. "W. H. Gutelius, the
Times.
An hour was spent in dining, and after
the coffee was served the feast of reason
began. Mrs. "Wade was toastmaster, and
also responded to "Woman as a Critic."
The other toasts and responses were: Miss
M. C. Galliher, "The Girl Keporter;" Miss
Eva Miller, "Our Guest of Honor, Nellie
Bly;" Miss Pink Cochran (Nellie Bly),
"Woman Without an Escort;" Miss M. D.
Coyle, "Man as a Father, Husband,
Brother, lover or Any Capacity;" Miss
Janey M. Coard, "To the Pioneer Woman
in Newspaper Work;" Mrs. Gutelius,
"Newspaper Men as Husbands."
At the conclusion of the banquet the ladies
were conveyed in carriages to Old City Hall,
where they escorted Nellie inside and sat in
a body in the front of the hall. The ladies
were all radiant in handsome car
riage costumes, and presented quite
an imposing appearance as they
traversed the aisle in the hall. The banquet
and its success is largely due to the efforts of
Miss Marion C. Galliher, who has been un
tiring in her efforts to make it just what it
was. The floral decorations were furnished
by A. M. & J. B. Murdoch, and have never
been excelled in Pittsburg.
SOT DAT1D HARRIS' BODY.
A Corpse Found Near Industry Causes Con
siderable Speculation.
A dead man was taken from the Ohio
river near Industry, yesterday morning. A
report come to Allegheny that the corpse
was that of David Harris, the stove man,
who disappeared March 1. H. P. Gazzam,
a brother-in-law of the missing man, went
to Industry and discovered that the body
was not thai of his relative. The drowned
man was roughly clad and was evidently a
mill worker.
The fact that Mr. Gazzam went to the
place so promptly disproves the story that
Mr. Harris' relatives know where he is.
Both Go: Into Trouble.
Isaac Kinney was arrested in the barroom
of the Central Hotel last night for drawing
a revolver, because he was refused a drink.
A companion, Henry Feldony, was arrested
as a suspicions character, while trying to
sell a watch.

What is this man doing?
He is cutting down his stock
by the vigorous use of a sharp
knife.
The picture fitly symbolizes
the sharp cutting down of
prices by which our stock of
Furniture and Curtains has
been rapidly melting away
during the past week. Our
plan of an auction, without
its dangers and pitfalls, and
the auctioneers' whips, under
which you buy in haste and
afterward repent in leisure,
has proved a great success.
Prices 'are in plain figures on
the tags. You can compare
and choose quietly deliber
ately. You can inspect the
whole stock, pass it all with
out purchasing, and no harm
is done.
As will be noticed in the
sample lots quoted below, we
have made additional reduc
tions on lots offered last week
which still remain unsold.
The fact is, the immense stock
in our six-story warehouse on
Third avenue must-be largely
reduced. If last week's prices
were not low enough to make
a quick sale, we will make
lower prices to-day which will
be sure to make them go.
We have replaced the large
quantity of goods sold by
new lots equally as good in
style and quality, and with an
equally , heavy reduction in
prices.
