PITTSBURGH PRESS CLUB
Its Origin and Progress
N the Spring of 1881 .thirty-three
years ago, the newspaper work-
ers of Pittsburgh met in Com-
mon Council Chamber, Muni-
cipal Hall, and organized the PITTSBURGH
PRE.5S CLUB. The primary object of the
meeting and organization was the very ap-
parent necessity of taking care of the news-
paper men of inadequate means who were
stricken with illness, and to see that those who died were decently buried.
This was a most laudable field for concerted action, and a decision was
reached that a press club would be useful to the community in many ways.
Many men of prominence in the newspaper world of Pittsburgh were
active in the organization of the new club. Among these were the late
John N. Neeb, William Ramsey, William Smythe and H. W. Neeb. Its first
president was Mr. C. N. Shaw, at that time City Editor of the "Dispatch".
It is gratifying to note that Mr. H. A. Neeb, who has the distinction of being
the only original officer of the Club now living, and who was its first treas-
urer, is often seen in the rooms, discussing the current topics of the day,
or speaking reminiscently of the dead and living members of the profession.
The first quarters of the Club consisted of rooms on the third floor of
No. 408 Smithfield Street. After some little time these rooms were given
up, and the Club maintained a somewhat feeble and absolutely homeless
existence for another year. In the meantime, the number of men employed
on newspapers in Pittsburgh had greatly increased, and the necessity for

organization was seen to be greater than ever before. In 1885, a second
general meeting of newspapermen of the city was called and held in the
Common Council Chamber. The result of this meeting was a decision in
favor of a Club, and the charter of the PITTSBURGH PRESS CLUB was
applied for and granted.
For a number of years the Club occupied comfortable quarters at No.
406 Penn Avenue. Subsequently the organization was housed at the
corner of Sixth Avenue and Cherry Alley, the present location of the Public
Safety Building; on Sixth Avenue near Smithfield Street; on Smithfield
Street, below Sixth Avenue; at 5 1 Smithfield Street, where three floors of
the Park Hotel building were occupied. It was then decided to seek more
modern and up-to-date quarters, and a pleasant suite of rooms, on the fourth
floor of the Nixon Theater Building, was secured, which was the home of
the Club for three years. Early in 1911 a larger suite, on the ninth floor
of the newly completed May Building, was leased; but after one year's
occupancy, the increased membership made larger quarters necessary, and
the Club leased for a term of years, the entire eighth floor of the May Build-
ing, Fifth and Liberty Avenues, its present quarters.
Since obtaining its charter, the PITTSBURGH PRESS CLUB has
never closed its doors, and is now the oldest press club of continuous
existence in the country. The house is open day and night, to receive
members and visiting newspaper men. This is a great convenience to vis-
itors, arriving in our city at any hour of the twenty-four, and is a necessity
so far as our resident members are concerned, owing to the different hours
in which they are employed. Those working on afternoon papers can
avail themselves of the privileges of the Club during the day or evening;
but the men on the morning papers can only find time for rest and recrea-
tion after the paper goes to press, which is "After Thirty."
It has always been a dignified club and has maintained and fostered the
traditions of the best school of journalism, according to both old and modern
standards. It is a semi-public institution that seeks to bring into social
contact the man who makes the news with the man who gathers it.
Among its members are men who have passed from the newspaper field
into higher business, professional and public life, and who have attained not
only local and national reputation, but have reached international promi-
nence. On the list of members of the Club who began their literary careers
Corner of the Reading Room
in Pittsburgh are to be found the names of many leading cartoonists, play-
wrights, magazine writers and authors of to-day.
Under the administration of Thomas J. Keenan as President the Inter-
national League of Press Clubs was organized, over fifteen years ago. The
PITTSBURGH PRH5S CLUB thus became responsible for one of the
greatest forward movements in journalism.
The present quarters of the Club are located in the center of the com-
mercial and financial district; and convenient to all city and interuiban lines
of travel. The rooms, a few of which are herein illustrated, are well
arranged to meet the requirements of a club of this character.
Bohemia Hall
In the directors' room is a choice collection of photographs and crayon
portraits of prominent men and women in the dramatic and musical world;
a bequest made to the Club by the late Major Montooth.
In "Bohemia Hall" are given the many entertainments which have
made this Club a factor in the city's social life. During the season several
"Ladies' Nights" are given, at which an excellent entertainment is furnished
for the families and friends of members.
Last year the Club inaugurated the policy of giving each year, to
approximately one hundred poor children, a Christmas Party. On the
afternoon of December 23, 1913, the children were entertained in the
large assembly room, which was artistically decorated with festoons of oak
and holly leaves, and myriads of multi-colored incandescent lights; the stage
being set with an illuminated tree and surrounding landscape. After the
dinner was served, the tree was disclosed, and the distribution of presents
followed. These consisted of several pieces of serviceable clothing, a toy
or doll, fruit, candy, etc. The children were served by a corps of ladies who
volunteered for the service; either wives and sisters of members, or ladies
interested in the Kindergarten Association, which organization furnished
the children not secured through the personal investigation of members.
To meet the expense of this entertainment, no subscriptions were solic-
ited outside the Club membership, and the "Children's Christmas Party" is
considered an established institution by the PITTSBURGH PRL55 CLUB.

LINZ, HLNRY J., manufacturer, is the son of Henry and Anna
M. Heinz. He was educated in the public schools and during
his boyhood days, when not in school, assisted his father, who
was engaged in brick-making and contracting. As the boy
grew to manhood, the father came to depend almost entirely upon the son
in the management of the little contracting business. At length he was
taken in as a partner, and upon the suggestion of the son, a market garden
was added to the contracting business. This soon became the most profit-
able enterprise of the two, and in 1 869 the son started a modest business
of packing horseradish. This was the origin of the H. J. Heinz Company,
of which Mr. Heinz is now president.
Mr. Heinz's home in the Last End, which contains a fine library and
many collections of quaint and interesting relics, is one of the show places
of Pittsburgh. While Mr. Heinz belongs to the Duquesne, Union, Country
and Press Clubs, he devotes less time to amusements than do most busi-
ness men. Much of his time is devoted to charitable and religious work,
and nowhere is he more at home than among the boys and girls of his Sun-
day School. Rarely does he miss a session, and is always thoroughly
familiar with the subject under discussion for the day. He carries his
religion, as taught in Church and Sunday School, into the office and factory
on week days; and libraries, bath houses of the most sanitary type, lunch
rooms, and a large swimming pool are maintained in his North Side plant,
free to all employees.

OWL, WALLACE. HURTLL, manufacturer; b. St. Louis, Mo.,
February 15, 1861; s. Joseph "and Margaret Llizabeth (Boyce)
Rowe; was educated in the Public Schools and Colleges of
St. Louis, and in 1883 he became associated with the wire
business in his home city. As the future of the steel business in 5t. Louis
was not very promising, and Western Pennsylvania offering decided advan-
tages in this line, Mr. Rowe, with his former associates, came to the Pitts-
burgh district in search of a desirable location. They organized the Brad-
dock Wire Company, and Mr. Rowe became treasurer and general manager
of the new company. The work of building the new plant was placed in
the hands of the young manager, and he soon had a prosperous plant in
operation at Rankin, Pa. His work was so satisfactory that when the Brad-
dock Wire Company was merged into the Consolidated Steel & Wire
Company of Chicago, Mr. Rowe was placed in charge of all the business of
the new company in Pennsylvania. He was active in the organization of
the American Steel & Wire Company, with which the Consolidated Steel
& Wire Company was merged; and in 1 90 1 this company was absorbed by
the United States Steel Corporation. He remained with the corporation for
a time, but finally disposed of his holdings, and organized the Pittsburgh
Steel Company, of which he became the president. He is also president of
the Pittsburgh Steel Products Company; vice-president of the Pittsburgh
Ice Company and director of the Duquesne National Bank. He takes an
interest in clean sports and is a member of the Pittsburgh Athletic Asso-
ciation; also the Pittsburgh Press, Duquesne, University, Pittsburgh Golf
and Allegheny Country Clubs, as well as the Universities Club of London.
Office, Frick Building, Pittsburgh.

ARN5DALL, THE.ODORL N., capitalist. Mr. Barnsdall is one of
the best known independent oil producers in the country, with
extensive operations in this section, as well as in Oklahoma,
Texas and other oil fields; president and director of the Pitts-
burgh Oil & Gas Company; president and director, Union Natural Gas Cor-
poration; director, Annex Hotel Company, Dominion Natural Gas Company,
Oklahoma Natural Gas Company, Osage & Oklahoma Company, and other
financial and industrial institutions, is a well known figure in Pittsburgh's
business life. Mr. Barnsdall's home, on North Negley Avenue, is one of the
most attractive of the many fine residences of the Last End; the extensive
grounds being perhaps the finest example of landscape gardening in the
city. The beautiful formal garden, overlooking a miniature lake, and the
artistic arrangement of trees and shrubbery, form a setting rarely seen in a
city. Mr. Barnsdall occupies a large suite of offices in the Farmers Bank
Building, Pittsburgh.
