Brother Kills ltrotlior.
At Bradford, McKean county, on
Tuesday morning of last week Robert
Butler shot nnd instantly killed
Henry Butler, his brother. The
murdered man had been working in
the snw mill at Daguseahonda, five
miles east of Rldgway, and boarded
with William Fannin. He deter
mined to make a visit to his brother
at Bradford whom he he had not seen
for a number of years arriving at the
Ring farm near that city on Monday
afternoon. The greeting between the
two brothers was of the most friendly
character. After supper the two
brothers and Win, King, with whom
Robert lived, started for Bradford to
spend an evening socially together-
They visited the Comique remaining
until about 12 o'clock, and in othar
drinking places until two o'clock In
the morning. At one of the places
fellow sung a song at which Robert
took offense nnd struck the fellow In
the saloon. Henry interferred to stop
the quarrel when the two brothers en
gaged in a scuffle which did not result
in harm to either.
The following we cony from the
Bradford Evening Star.
"King and Henry Butler got home
first and entered the house some five
minutes before Robert came in. King
had spent this time in advising the
unfortunate man not to have any more
trouble with lus brother but to go tip
stairs to bed and ail wouln be right, in
the morning. When Robert came in
lie attacked his brother again, but find-
ing that he was about to get the worst
of the fight let go, and telling Henry
that he would give him just ten nun
utes to leave the house, started out.
He went directly to Wiekwire's, a
neighbor's house, and calling him up
askeu ttie loan or his revolver. On
being asked what he wanted with it
his answer was that he didn't want
anything in particular. He insisted
on having it, and finally at Wiekwire's
suggestion promised that he would not
uo uuy harm with it, and he got it.
Returning toward tlie house he met
his brother at tlie barn which stood
midway between where- lie had left
him nnd where he had obtained, the
pistol.
Again they began fighting, and after
HCUllling for a few moments, in the
meantime working toward the house,
until they were within about two rods
of it, when Robert succeeded in get
ting range on his brother, and fired.
The ball entered the left breast an inch
and a half below the nipple, and four
inches below the medium line, passing
directly through the heart, clipping
the edge of the liver, then through
tlie second lumbar vertebra, after
which all trace of it was lost, and the
physicians who made the post mortem
examination failed to discover where
it had lodged.
As the victim fell he turned toward
King who was standing near and said,
"Good bye, Bill, the Lord have mercy
on me," and in another moment was
dead. The body was then borne into
the house by King and the murderer;
neighbors were summoned and u man
despatched to acquaint tlie poliee of
the facts, and their arrest of Robert
Butler for the deliberate murder of his
own brother followed.
When tlie officers arrived at the
house Butler said, "I have killed my
brother, what am I do?'1 The officers
at once took him into custody and
lodged him in the lockup in this city.
Neither of the brothers were married.
Their father, an elder brother nnd a
sister live in the vicinity of Hornells
ville, N. Y., and have been notified ot
the tragic death of their son and
brotheii.
Heury Butler was a man about 30
years of age, about feet 7 inches high
and would weigh pear ICO pounds.
His brother who killed him ts not so
strong u man, und of very much th
same personal description. He is said
hv all who knew him to have been oi
exceedingly bad and quarrelsome dis
position, especially when urinKiiig,
whiuh it seems was almost constantly.

Newspaper Laws.
1. A postmaster is required to give
notice by letter, returning a paper
does not answer the law) wheu a sub
scriber does not take his paper out of
the office, and state tlie reasons for its
not being taken ; any neglect to do so
makes the postmaster responsible to
tlie publisher tor the payment.
2. Any person who tukes a paper
from the postollice, whether directed
to his name or another, or whether he
has subscribed or not is responsible for
the pay.
3. It any person orders ins paper
discontinued lie must jury all arrear
ages, or the publishers may continue
to send it until payment is made, and
collect the whole amount, whether it
be taken from the office or not. There
can be no legal discontinuance until
the payment is mude.
4. It the subscriber orders his paper
to stop at a certain time, and the pub
lisher continues to send, the subscriber
is bound to pay for it, if he takes it out
of the post-olfice. The law proceeds
upon the ground that a man must pay
lor what ne uses.

Washington Letter.
From our regular correspondent.
Washington, 1). 0., Oct. 13, 1S70.
This Is one ef the warmest full sea
sons the capital lias ever experienced
for years. Neverlcss it Is very pleasant.
The scorching- suns of July nnd Au
hud jiit tlie parks Into a premature
sere nnd yellow leaf, hut the milder
weather of September, neeotnpnnled as
it ha been ly plenty of moisture, lias
rejuvenated the face of nature and now
the parks, squares and lawns nre
smiling with the beauty of June. It
is hist the time to see the city in it
best, and fresh faces meet us In all the
places of public Interest, Resides
these we encounter many familiar
faces which belong to the returning
summer absentees and remind us how
rapidly the session of Congress ap.
immehes. The visitors who fome to
us now it Is safe to say, are not noli
tieians
they are people who come
nre
what
here to
see
manner or city
Washington is when the lawgivers
ore away, i hu first place they make
for is the Capitol itself. Here they
find the legislative chambers and the
various other public rooms lu a rare
state of disorder. There are always
certain repairs ana alterations to be
made not to mention the necessary
changing at the close of tlie season and
this year tno work was delayed by the
extra meeting of Congress which
lusted until July
Tlie elaborately ornamented grounds
about the t;npitol are very lovely now,
contrasting strongly witli tlie disorder
in and around the building. New
was arc being finished and old ones
re-laid; an immense new sale has been
put in lor tlie House oi itcprcscniu
lives: some new statuary has been in
troduced, and many changes made in
the rooms. The ventilation of the
Representatives' Chamber is being
crentlv improved. A lobby has been
made by tearing out the partitions be
tween the reporters', tne ergeant-at
Arms and the Speakers rooms, with
windows opening to the cut-door
world: the speaker's room has been
transferred to what was the folding
room. An open rtre-pluce has been
built back ot the speaker's desk, and
various other decided improvement
inaugurated. A new electric lighting
apparatus for the dome has been com
pleted and tested. It is a "dynamo
electric machine, with an illuminating
power equal to 76,000 candles, and is
similar to smaller ones with the in
tensity of 16.U00 candles recently pur
chased for litrhtinir the halls and
chambers of the Capitol. Tlie latter
cost 000 each, and were purchased out
of an appropriation of $2,400 for tlie
purpose, and tlie remainder will, it is
thought, pay for the larger one. The
apparatus will occupy the west pnrt
of the dome, and will command Penn
sylvania avenue for a long distance,
It is expected that, with electricity
instead of gas, the dome, the routundu
und the halls will be better lighted
than ever before, and that the cost of
the same will be lessened. Speaking
of the dome of the Capitol, tlie old
Italian artist Signor Brumidi, who
painted the allegorical figures in the
apex, and who lias been at work here
for the last twenty-six years, is still
cncaired in the rotunda. His work
is done on a platform suspended sixty
feet from the lioor. Ho is old and
feeble, and sits in a chair while at
work. Some time since he had a very
narrow escape from a sudden and
terrible death. His platform consisted
of two stages, the ommunicutiou be
tween them being by ladder. On this
occasion he was seated in his chair on
the upper stage, and, in leaning over
to give the finishing touch to a figure
almost out of his reach, his chai
slipped and turned over, and lie only
saved himself lrom dropping down be
low bv catching on a round of tlie
ladder. to which he came. He is qiute
old and feeble, and lately told a gentle
man who called on him that he OKI
not expect to live to finish the great
work on which he has been so ion
enirnired.
.Military and government circles are
good deal agitated over the Indian
difficulties which have
just broke out
afresh. This time it
is the Ltes ot
Colorado and the WhiteRiver eouutrv
1'he murder of Major Thornburg
agent Meeker and all the whites at
the agency is another or tnose coiu
blooded atrocities likely to occur at
any time, so long us our Indian policy
und system remains where it now in
Tlie Utes have heretofore been n
garded us frieudly, and the niiucipu
duels are still so. Seven oi the chieis
were hero in Washington less than ;
yenr ago remaining two weeks ut ti e
Fremont House, where I met und
conversed with them. 'I hey wen
feted and feasted, and given receptions
without number. They also attended
church nnd made speeches to the
Sunday school children, and before
leaving for home the Interior Depart
ment gave them each a truiiK, an
overcuut and $100 in silver. One oi
this same party, "Colorado Chief" is
now the leader ot tne warlike baud on
White river. The others, among
whom are chiefs '8am" and "Billyr
remain friendly. Both of the last
named outrank Colorado in the Ute
councils. The principal chief "Ouray"
is not a hereditary chieftain, but holds
that position by reuson of his great
ability. He superseded Colorado a
few years ugo, and the latter lias since
been sullen, reckless and violently op-
nosed to the civilization ot nis trioe. 1
saw a great many of these Indians
while in Colorado, und learned much
of their hubits and condition. They
occupy a reservation comprising
several millions of the best land in
Colorado, but are generally opposed to

SELECT LIST
OF
LOCAL NEWSPAPERS I
Many persons suppose this list to be
composed of CHEAP, low-priced
newspapers. The fact is quite other
wise. The Catalogue states exactly
what the papers are. When the name
of a paper is printed in FULL FACE
TYPE it is in every instance the BEST
paper in the place. Wheu printed in
CAPITALS it is the ONLY paper in
tlie nlace. When printed in Roman
letters it is neither tlie best nor the
only paper, but is usually a very good
one, notwithstanding. The list gives
the population of every town and the
circulation of every paper. IT IS
NOT A CO-OPERATIVE LIST. It
is not a cheap list. At the foot of
the Catalogue for each State the im
iwrtant towns which are not covered
bv the list are enumerated. It is an
Honest List. The rates charged for
advertising are barely one-fifth the
publishers" schedule. The price for
one inch four weeks in the entire list
is $Gii5. The regular rates of the pa
pers for the same space and time are
$3,136.35. The list includes 970 news
papers, of vhieh 163 are issued Daily
and 807 Weekly. They are located
in 625 different cities and towns, of
which 22 are State Capitals, szo places
