COUNTY COMMITTEE MEETING
The members of tbe Republican
County Committee will meet in tb<
Arbitration Room in Butler on Friday
April 15tb, at one o'clock sharp, for the
purpose of fixing a time for holding th«
Primary Election, and the transaction
of all other business that may properly
come before tbe Committee.

CoiRT, special session, convened on
Monday last, Judge McJunkin presid
ing, with Associates Storey and Mc-
Candless. Much business of variou.-
kinds is being beard and the trial of
civil cages progessing.
MANY of the Republican candidatei
for nomination for the offices to be
filled this fall are in town this week
and all seem to be in a good hnmor.
There are good men out for all tlx
offices and tbe Republican voters *ill
have plenty of good material to chose
from.
STATE SENATOR James Everhart,
of the Chester county district, is just
now receiving complimentary notices
from the lact that & has uniformly re
fused to take more than tbe SI,OOO, for
his pay at e*cb session of the Legis
lature. B« declined to take the extra
pay, because he doubted its
constitutionality, and because he found
tb« % 1000 sufficientfor bis needs. Sen
ator Everhart too is a man of high at
tainments and attends closely to his
Legislative duties. It is to be regret
ted that there are not more members
like him.
U.S. SENATE. —Tbe Republicans of
the country are generally becoming
uneasy at tbe continued dead-lock in
the United States Senate. As that
body convened in ex ra session for the
purpose of acting upon the appoint
ments of the President, as is usual en
thccommencementofa new Administra
tion no other business should have been
permitted to interfere with that duty.
The continued dead-lock in the Senate,
as to who shall be its clerks and offi
cers, does not justify the Republicans
Senators in refusing to act upon the
nominations to vacant and important
offices made by the President, and the
sympathies of the people are entirely
with President Garfield on the ques
tion The party will uot stand this
dead-lock mueh longer.
BALD RIDGE WELL-PUMPING
20 JsAHBiLSAD -'Y-AN UN
DOUBTED SUCCESS.
Last week's pumping at the new
Bald Ridge well demonstrated that the
production was about 20 bairels per
day. This too has been made known
under tho very adverse circumstances
of having poor and second hand pump
ing rods, which broke frequently and
caused much delay. But the fact is
now well established that oil has not
only been found there but a good well
is obtained. The oil forces itself up
through the water and a large amount
escapes and is lost, from the want of
sufficient means to secure it. When
better rods and machinery are used, it
is confidently expected the well will
still do better.
This successful venture opens up o
new and very extensive territory. Iu
fact we look upon it as proving that
oil exists in the western part of our
county as well as in the eastern. Leas
es are being taken and other wells
will be drilled. The effect upon our
town and business is already to be
seen, and this summer will likely find
Butler a lively and improving place.
DEATH OF HENRY FILLOW,
It is with great regret that we have
to record the death of Henry Pillow,
Esq., which happened at bis residence
in this p'ace on last Saturday evening,
9th inst. For some two or three
months past it was known that he was
iu bad health, but his demise came
sooner than was generally expected
That a good citizen is taken from us
is the expression of all. But few men
had been more useful to his fellow citi
zens aud but few could have been
inore highly respected. Ho vas an
active man in all the works of life,
serving the people with much industry
and with great integrity. In the oc
cupation that he followed most of his
life, that of a surveyor, he became well
known to the people of the whole
county and the utmost confidence was
reposed in his judgment and skill lie
was, besides, a scholarof more than or
dinary learning in almost all branches
of science.
Captain Pillow was, \ie believe,
born in this place, or at least spent
part of his early boyhood days here.
His parents removed to or near Pros
peet when he was young, at which
place he lived most of his life. In
that village he has lift the evidences
of his enterprise and industry, having
erected several of its reside; c ■ for
among other things, he was a mechan
ic, having learned the carpenter trade
and working at it often wiih his own
hands. When the late Rebellion broke
out he was among the lirst to go
to the service of his country, and be
came captain of a company, and hence
was generally spoken of by that title.
After the war he wa? put forward by
his friends for the Legislature and in
1865 was nominated and elected, and
re-nominated and elected in 1866.
Having served a session with him the j
writer of this can bear testimony to ■
bid fide'ittd duty and bid I
t ous integrity in all bis public acts.
Shortly after thus serving the people
of the county, he removed to this place
and purchased the piece of ground in
the west side of our town where he
built the fine and comfortable home in
which he died. For some years past
he had been acting as a Justice of the
Peace, to which responsible position
he was chosen by bis fellow citizens
without regard to party. He was fil
ling this ollice at the time of his death,
and now leaves the same, and all else
of earth, at the age of 57 years and 6
months. His remains were followed
to the grave on Monday last by a
larger than usual assemblage of people;
his last resting place befog > n tlie
South Cemetery, in a luf of 'he IT. P.
Church poition of the same.
On Monday mornings April 11, I**l, on hear
injr of the death of Ol't. Henry lillow, an im
promptu meeting veteran officers and sol
liers of the war o( the late great rebel .on was
Held at the Coflrt House in Butler, at which
G-n John V. Purviance was chosen I resident
and Marsha' of the day and a committee con
listing of A. G. Williams, M. N. Greer. John
[jutJcr. Hon. Robert Storey, Alex. Russell.
Wnv Harvey, Esq., and F. M. Eastman was
au»oint.d to "draft resolutions appropriate to the
UeTancholy occasions. The committee reported
the following:
RmoU'td, That it was with profound sorrow
we learned of the sudden death of ("apt. Henry
Pillow, of Co. F, 137 th Jleg't Pa. Vol. Infant
ry at his dwelling in Butler. Saturday, April
1881. He was a gallant and accomplished
military officer; as a legislator, he was honest
did faithful; a* a magistrate, he was intelligent,
upright and impartial ; as a citizen, he was re
jected and beloved; as a husband and father,
he was kind and affectionate.
JUsolved, That the family and friends and
relatives of the deceased have our heartfelt
sympathy in this their sudden and great be
reavement, and that as a murk of our respect to
his memory and great worth, as well as to his
mourning relatives, we w;ll attend his funeral
Resolvtd, That these proceedings be publish
ed in tlie countv papers.
On motion, the report of the committee was
accepted, adopted and the committee discharg
ed.
ASSOCIATE JUDGE QUESTION.
Whether or not we will have an As
sociate Judge to elect in this county
this fall depends altogether upon the
action of the present Legislature. If a
new apportionment of the Judicial dis
tricts of the State separates Butler
from Lawrence county, and declares
this a separate district, then there will
be no more Associate Judges to elect
in the county. Aud if, on the other
hand, we remain joined to Lawrence
county there will be. And this for the
reason that, although we have more
than the necessary population to enti
tle us to bo a separate district, yet the
Legislature may not so ascertain and
declare. And if it docs not, and leaves
the district as it is, then the same
Judges will exist and be elected. There
is nothing in the decision of the Su
preme Court in the Fayette county
case to conflict with this view. That
county had the necessary population at
;he outsturt (1874) for a separate dis
trict, yet Greene county was, from ne
cessity, attached to it. Butler hid not
that, and hence the difference. But the
probabilities are that we will be sep
arated from Lawrence countv and made
a separate district, and if so, there will
be no Associate Judge to elect in this
county this fall or in the future. The
action of the Legislature will soon be
known, and should have been known
before this time. It doubtless will be
known before our primary election, but
in the meantime the candidates for nom
ination to that office are in an uncertain
and unpleasant position. Two or three
weeks will likely settle the question,
and in answer to inquires made of us,
the above is about all the information
we can give at present.
Tho Union Coal & Coko Co.—•
Lim ted.
The Union Coal k Coke Company,
Limited, of Coalville, Butler county,
has fitted up offices over Shrom & Al
denderfer's drug store, on Main street,
The offices are convenient to the g n*
eral offices of the S. & A. R. 11. Co.,
with which the coal company has a
large amount of business to transact.
The company has made arrangements
with the Western Union Telegraph
Company by which daily and frequent
communication between the coal mines
and the offices here is kept up. In the
near future, it is expected that the of.
? fices will also be connected by tele
phone with the Greenville rolling mill,
and Kimberly. Carnes & Co.'s mills at
Sharon and New Castle. G. G. Stage,
Esq., makes his headquarters at the of
fices in this place and Jake Bitteuban
ncr is weigh-master and Genera! assist
ant manager at r he mines. The Com
pany starts out with bright prospects
for the future. During the month of
March, the second month of business,
four thousand tons of coal were shipped
from the mines, and tho quantity will
be increased in the future.
The above whi h we copy from tho
Greenville, Mercer county, Adcanrc-
Argus, of the 7th inst., refers to the
coal developetnent now going on in
Cherry township, and the upper end of
this county. Coalville we believe is in
Cherry township, and tho abundant
coal there, and between this and there,
is what is giving promise of the She
nango and Allegheny Railroad beinjr
soon extended to this place. In addi
tion to the coal trade, we have not the
least doubt that if the road be continued
down to Butler it will immediately
have passenger travel that will surprise
all aud aid largely in compensating the
owners, and this besides a large local
freight business that will at once
spring up. Thera is no connection
more needed than the one that would
connect the Slienango with the West
Penn io.;d ht re ; both being general
gauge, and there is every encourage
ment to make it. With that done, arid
the Narrow Gauge connection made by
the Parker, Karns City and Butler
road with the Harmony and Zelieno
pl>* one, then most of our couutv will be
opened up to railroad trade and travel-
Our coal and oil will bring both soon.

still your humble servant, hiving 1 a
ticket that will take him anywhere on
foot, started for Thorncreek school
house to witness the clo>inir pctfor
niance given bv the teacher, pupils and
ottors on last Friday evening, Ist, inst.
15v great physical exertion we ar
rived at the place in 'reasonable time.
On entering the school room' we no
ticed it was nicely decorated with
wreathes, mottoes, etc., evincing great
taste in pupils and teacher.
The music furnished for the occasion
was excellent; the instruments used
were two violins and an organ, judging
from the pieces played should say
that the musicians wen understood
their business. The performance of
the scho >1 consisted in declamations,
dialogues and songs. We have not
the space or time to notice the perfor
mance of each individual, but would
say that each one acquitted himself in
a praise-worthy manner. Some of the
declamations in particular were well
spoken. Barbara Fritchie, an old
poem that most all of us have read,
was rendered in an able manner by the
teacher, N. S. Brown. We might
speak ot others that were received with
gr»»at applause by the audience, but
time forbids. We notice that the
teacher took an active part in the exer
cises of the evening and performed in
a creditable manner. Not saving it to
discourage the others who took part
in the entertainment, but we will have
to designate the teacher as the
"Star permoriner of the evening "
The closing song by a number of
young gentlemen was very appropriate
on an occasion of that kind. The val
edictory by the teacher was well de
livered and evinced both taste and tal
ent. The exercises consumed the time
until a late h"ur in the night, when all
went away seeming satisfied.
Exhibitions of this character give
the pupils a chance to show what
practical knowledge they have gained
during the winter, and also tie teacher
an opportunity to display his talent.
OBSERVER.
Killing Cattle in Chicago.
K OPEN DALE, ANDREW CO., MO.)
April 4th, 1881. )
EDITORS CITIZEN:—It is sometimes
bust for a pian not to know too much
about the manner in which food is pret
pared if he has to buy it.
While in Chicago I visited a slaugh
ter house where beef is prepared for
canning and corning. Just before I
arrived they had killed a lot of poor
old cows, the like of which could not
be sold for stock cattle in Butler county.
They were very poor and some of them
looked diseased and were very weak.
The men and boys who drive the
cattle from the Union Stock Yards are
verv cruel and often break a horn or
two and goad the poor beasts with
sharp stick* until the blood c»mes.
Just after we arrived they broyght
in a drove of Texan steerg, which are
much smaller than the Pennsylvania
cattle and have much larger horns.
The cattle are driven into ft yard and
up a shute into a hallway which Las
doors opening into it from stalls about
Hx7 feet. One animal at a time is
driven into a stall and when the stalls
ate filled, a young mai) or a boy walks
along on the roof above carrying a pole
about 10 feet long with a steel point
on the lower end and strikes it into the
top of the neck just between the ears
and the animal drops dead, bleeding
copiously if stuck in the right place,
Which the operator soon learns to do.
Sometimes an animal ia not filled out
right when it is dragged out of the
stall by placing a chain (attached to
machinery, run by steam,) around its
horns and its brains beaten out with a
sledge iu the hand- of a workman, and
ip a short time the poor beast is hung
up to coal before bei«£ !l)a(]e into
canned beef and sent out to feed tLe
hungry millions. If s.mie persons
who use canned beef could see it alive
I think they \\ ou'd uot lel'sh it.
Some of these Texas cattle are very
V'icious. One of those I saw when
coming to the slaughter bouse, made a
driver turn a summersault and then
seek lint and bandages, and when in
the yard made another mount the high
board fe: ce and rest awhile, much to
the amusement of the spectators.
I proceeded on my way a wiser
man. H X. ANDERSON.

MESSRS. EDITORS In a few weeks a Super
intendent of our public schools is to be elected.
Who shall he be? This is ii question which
shouM interest not oaly directors and teachers,
but all citizens who feel interested in the wel
fare of our schools. Xo othor election should
so deeply enlist tbe interest of llje people.- We
can afford bad management any wllcre else bet
ter than in respect to our schools. Good schools
make good citizens, and good citizens are neces
sary to the very existence of a State.
iiut there are some who seem to think the of
fice of Superintendent is a nuisance,and shou.d
be abolished. Other", think it is too expensive,
and that it might be conducted on a cheaper
plan. Some of the objectors to the office say,
' Let the directors in each district appoint one
of their number to examine the teachers, visit
the Schools, make reports, and pay him a sala
ry for the time spent in so doing."
This plan might answer the purpose in some
localities; but would fail in others. For there
are, no doubt, s.-hool boards who feci that none
of them are capable to examine teachers. Then
they would be under the necessity of employing
some one to do the work ; and there would be
more objections to the plan than the one we
have, and u«t any cheaper. Unity of system
and plan, in the work of tnc schools, can lie se
cured with a Superintendent hotter than where
the supervision is conducted by committees.
The same principle is recognized iu o irpora
tions, and other instances of united effort.
The office of County Superintendent is one of
the most important in lonueet o i with cur free
school system. 1 admit that it is not by any
means what it should be. We should not do
away with it. but we should make the office
more effective. —How can it be made m ire ef
fective? ily electing to the office a man who
has skill and experience in the ait ot teaching.
One who is able and ready to assist teachers
whenever he sees ts.ev need assistance. He
should be energetic and devoted. The good
Superintendent must be a leading educator,
able to insp.re his teachers to high attainments.
Hut bow can he do this unless lie himself has
high attainments? None but an experienced
man can give teachers the help they need.
When a Superintendent visits a school he
should cuter it as a helper rather than a critic.
It is easy to see when things are wrong, but it
is not so easy to set them riijlit. liut it is the
duty of the Superintendent to help th - teachers
to right thai which is wrong. lie should pri
vately and kindly tell him where he is wrong,
and how to overcame bis laiiures. Il V ' should
make every teacher feel that be is bis friend.
He should be able to impart his methods of
teaching ami to arouse in iiis teachers all possi
ble enthusiasm in their work. There can be no
success without enthusiasm. He should inspire
tUeiu with a desire to do liieir work iu the best
possible wav.
Though Mr. McKee h is each year regularly
visited the schools, yet but little good has been
done, except collecting statistics. '1 be time
spent iu each school was so short, that but lit
tle of its workings could be inspected. School
visitation |cun be made very beneficial if wisely
done :if unwisely, no good will be done. In
this w»>rk Superintendents should be very care
ful to strengthen the bauds ot teaehers, not to
wtukcv them. tiliMiM cumuliy ouswv?
th«* teacher's methods, eommendwliat is good,
and keep thei"* criticism for his private ear. ihe
most useful part of the visit i.the few minutes
private talk with the teacher. Now is the
time to tell the teacher exactly what it seeras
he needs to know : to encourage him whereever
lie needs encouragement, to Itindly jioint out
his faults and show hint how to overcome theiu.
These are essential duties of every superin
tendent in visiting schools.
As to qualifications of Superintendents, let
n)2 quote the opinion of the State Superintend
ent. He says: "The County Superintendent
should be tiie leading instructor, lie knows
the weak points, and in what direction instruc
tion is needed. Any Superintendent *ho cau
tiot instruct his institute w.th life and vigor
should no! occupy the position he holds, li he
cannot lay down the principles of teaching, and
illustrate them from the life of the schoolroom,
he is not the man for the place." \V heu has
Mr. McKee instructed the teachers at an insti
tute? Has he the ability to do. so? The last
institute was a splendid entertainment, but
was a failure as to practical benefit to the
teachers. The teachers were ignored altogeth
er. They were treated as if they were not edu
cated well enough to take part in au institute;
and that it was big I and little ti.
Hut Directors have noticed these things, and
it is not necessary to speak further ot them.
What we as citizens desire, is that the Direc
tors will choose for County Superintendent the
lie-it man that can he obtained, There is a
pressing need of a thoi i I'J'l County Superin
tendent to examine teachers. The teacher's
certificate, as gei erally given, is a sham—
a mere guess. The time spent in examining a
class is too short. Au expi-ri Superintendent
may determine the qualifications of a class ot
teachers in twelve »»r titteen hours; ami this
would require two days. A certificate given
after examination would mean "Examined and
found qualified."
Directors, vou have the choosing of the one
who is to fill this office, and upon your choice
much depends. Weigh tin' merits of each can
didate well. Let not party prejudice, (for you
can't atford that) but only merit decide your
choice.
A CITIZEN.
Railroad »n«l Oil STt ws.
BP.KAKNECK, PA., April 0.
Things are beginning to look lively in this
part of the county. It has been definitely as
certained that Forward Tp. will yield oil. We
cannot tell.just how much until further devel
opments are made. \\ «• hear ext .'iisi\• prep
arations are made to further develop
the oil interests. A party that has been "sight
ing" the oil belt since the strike at Bald Ridge
locates the main belt westwaid from that point
somewhere between school house No. 5 auJ No.
ri, in said township, thence continuing on be
tween No. 2 and No. 7, in same township, pass
ing a little north of Evansburg with some
hopes of a branch oil in that direction. And
in addition to our under y round pri>s|>ects,
there are surface indications in railroad matters
that are not to be overlooked. We hear it
stated a few days ago that the Pittsburgh A:
Western narrow gauge and the Uatler <fc Knrns
City had been consolidated bv purchase or
agreement and it was positively asserted that
the connection would he in;: le within a year.
The valley of the Connoquenessing along which
tlie connection uicst necessarily be made is a
beautiful and and fertile valley, a'lording abun
dant material for constructing the road, such
as timber for ties, bridges, trestle work &e.
Also abundance of ro -k for abutment-, culyt rt«
and embankments. All these considerations,
backed up by an enterprising agricultural com
munity and a direct route to the best market,
Pittsburgh, the greatest commercial centre
and manufacturing city in Western Pennsyl
vania, are not to be over looked by capitalists
seeking to invest ii* rolling stock. Engineers
are now at vrork on the. route and judging fro u
the time since they commenced, would think
they were about through and ready to locate
for grading. OBSKRVKR.
Fixing tho Salaries.
HARRISBIRG, April C.—Four bills
were passed finally by the Senate to
day and sent to the House. On the
first, Mr. Norris', fixing the salaries of
the members of the Legislature, there
was a prolonged discussion, during
which the provision making the salary
for regular sessions SI,OOO was stricken
out. The bill in its present shape
provides that ' the salary of the Sena
tors fjnd members of the House of Rep
resentatives id hereby fised at $} 000
each for each special session, except
when such special sossioi :s called for
the sole purpose of electing a United
States Senator, in which ease the sala
ry shall he $200." The other bills
were the one providing that all mechan
ics' liens for work done or materials
furnished for or about the erection or
construction of any building shall have
priority overadvance-money mortgagee;
the one declaring policies of lite insur
ance non-for'eitable by reason of non
payment of premiums, but requiting
dividends when declared to bo appro
priated to the payment of such pre.
miuuio unpaid, and she one tp punish
persons who shall mix with poisonous
or deleterious drugs or chemicals any
ale, beer or other malt liquor. The
bill introduced some ten days ago and
which is intended to place the city
passenger railways of Philadelphia un
der the contro) of City Councils vyas
repo' ted favorably, as was also a b-11
proposing an amendment to the State
Constitution s<> as to change the present
manner of apportioning the representa
tion in the Legislature. The last-nam
ed hill reduces the membership of the
House to JSO members.
A. Flood from the Northwest.
An unprecedented winter promises
to be fallowed in the Northwest by an
unprecedented spring. The iong sea
sun of uninterrupted cold, with fre
quent and heavy snows, has accumu
lated over an immense area an enor
mous amount of winter in the form of
snow and ice lvady to be converted by
the first breeze from the south into a
raging and destructive flood. A par
tial thaw over a comparatively limited
area in Dakota and Nebraska is but a
premonition of what U possible with
but a few days of mild*spring weather.
The rivers in that section, which had
been ice-bound and silent for nearly
four months, suddenly burst their
bonds, sverflowed their banks, while
each became a roaring, grinding, crush
ing engine of destruction. Bridges
went down at a touch, railroad-beds
were everywhere washed out, towns
were deiuged, and houses crushed like
egg-shells before the resistless ice flows.
Suddenly-formed gorges would pile up
the water and ice twenty-five feet iu
almost as many minutes, then suddenly
breaking loose, the mass would go
rushing on, carrying desolation in its
path.
This flood has spent its force and its
waters are subsiding, though travel
and traffic will pr >bablv continue in
terrupted for some time to come. The
loss of life and of slock must have
been considerable, while tho destruc
tion of property has undoubtedly been
very great. Nevertheless it is much
relief to the Northwestern country.
Some dozen or more such partial thaws
before the general thaw s<-ts in may
save the Mi.-sist-ippi V. lli-y from a lar
ger flood than has visited it since the
eout.try has had a white population.
Dakota i- by no means cleared of snow
while Montana and Wyoming are
covered deep with it. The meteorolo
gical reports place the depth of packed
snow iu the valleys and canyons at
from fifteen to twenty f c ,f lowa, Min
nesota, Wisconsin ami Northern Il
linois have still three, four and five
feet of solid-packed snow over their en
tire surface. The cold weather has
been uuusually protracted, but the lon
ger it lingers the greater the prospect
ol a sudden and destructive thaw when
it does go. Sould the milder weather
be accompanied by the usual spring
rains the mighty Mississippi will have
more than it can do to carry off the
thousand tornnts, little and big, 1
which will nt onto be pouitd iuto iu
It is possible that spring may be
sufficiently gradual in its coming as to
allow the Northwest to get rid <>f its
accumulations of snow on the install
ment principle, but an inconveniently
high stage of water in the Mississippi
is inevitable. Should a thaw take
place in tbe valleys of ihe upper .Mis- J
sissippi and Missouri at the same time
the confluence of waters at and below
tho junction of these rivers w*ili he |
something tremendous. Should the !
Ohio, Arkansas and lied Rivers con
tribute their usual spring quotas there
must bti a general inundation along the
entire lower Mississippi and an im
mense destruction of property. The
St. Louis G lobe-D-tmor rut already
sounds the alarm, It urges the
strengthening of the levees of that city
and the transportation of all portable
property to places of safety. If St.
Louis or any considerable portion of it
is in danger, what shall we say of
N'ew Orleans ? We doubt if any tink
ering of levees will prevent a general
flooding of river cities and towns or
the overflow of tens of thousands of
acres of cotton and sutrar lands unless
our delayed spring violates : II piece
dents and comes in as leisurely as if it
were not already one month behind
the almanac.— Philadelphia Pre.<a.

Known anv person to be seriously
ill without a weak stomach or inactive
liver or kidneys? And when tnese
organs are in good condition do you
find their possessor enjoying good
health ? Parker's Ginger Tonic always
regulates these important organs, and
never fai's to make the blood rich and
pure, and to strengthen every pun of
the system. It has cured hundreds of
despairing invalids. A.»k your neigh
bor about it. See other column.
IT has long been a matter of wonder
to some people how so many drug
stores manage to flourish in every com
munity. One cannot travel very Tar
in any direction without encountering
the sign of the "mortar and pestle,'' or
being at* acted bv the highly colored
bottles which indicate the business.
The secret of the success of these shops
lies in the fact that those who swallow
drugs and medicines pay roundly for
the pi ivilesre. Not ten, twenty, fifty,
or even a hundred per cent, marks the
limit of profits on many articles sold.
The New York Tribune cites an in
stance in point, which will doubtless
serve to recall many similar ones in
the experience of our readers. It says:
"A prescription recently put up at a
fashionable apothecary's cost sixty-five
cents a half-pint bottle. As it needed
frequent renewals, utid was a simple
solution of acid, it occurred to the buy
er that he would try the experiment
of being his own druggist. He got a
pound of the acid for forty cents,
wholesale rate, and with the aid of a
little water makes his own solution
With a very little calculation he dis
covered that this same amount of acid
furnished under the prescription would
have cost him §2O 80. Profit, 5,100
percent. Allowing 2,500 per cent fot
the expensesot water, attendance, rent,
etc., which in most business would be
regarded as sufficient, there is still 2,-
(Jtiii per cent profit. ' There ia a seri
otjs side to this question, because the
charges for medicine are such a boavy
tax upon the decent poor, and the ways
of druggists in the fashionable and un
fashionable parts of the city differ only
in degree, not in kind. A little less

Teachers' Joiaii fii]>iini(e.
SIX POINT-, April 8, isst.
EDITORS CITIZEN The teachers' joirit in
stitute of Venango, iiutler and Aniuuonjjeoun
tifls, in JjiulviUoa, Veuaiijjo coui.ty, April
Ist and 2nd was a success in every respect.
Inclemency of the weather and bad tvads
prevented many of the teachers a distance from
the railroad from beini; present, yet quite a
number of the teachers from 'aid counties were
present and manifested quite an interest in tne
cau-e of education.
The institute was instructed by the remarks
of the following c.-uaty Superintendents : S.
H. Prathir Venango; A. I). Glenn, u»,
Si;d A, M. Davis, I'laWon,
Prof. Glean explained why there were so
many failures in public schools. Supt. Prattler
followed with remarks on the same.
Pro s. Gibson and YViihelm discussed the
merits of a irood teacher. Prof. Gibson allowed
the three requisites of a good teacher are grit,
git and gumpshion. Prof. Gibson explained
hi. jilan of man drawing. Pod. Collier discuss
ed tne'ehange of picturing tin- map without any
idc of its reality. Prof. Walker opposed the
time given to map drawing, condemning hob
bies, Ac,
Prof. Collier, of Oil City presented the sub
ject of Natural History, followed by remarks
from Prof. Walker and other-.
The "Teacher, Pupil and Parent" was well
discussed by Prof. Kardnl, of franklin, aud
many of the teachers.
The evening lectures, by Supts. Prather and
Davis on "Educational Exhibits" were good
and secured aUentioij.
Revs. MePherrin, liall and Fox aided the in
stitute by the interest they manifested in it
Music was furnished by the Presbyterian
choir. Prof. Wa'ker der i ves great credit for
his management of the institute and also for the
inlerest manifested in the cause of education.
The citizens of Emlenton certainly deserve a
vote of thanks for their liosp.table manner of
entertaining strangers. TEACUKIt.
