—Although tbe roads of tbis county
are in a remarkably good condition for
this time of tbe year, there are some
terrible mad boles and maddy places

REGISTER'S OFFICE.
The will of Adam Ekas, dec'd, of
Clinton township, was probated last
week andj letters granted to W alter
Ekas, executor.
A wild-eyed stranger suddenly
appeared on 'Change in Peoria, the
other day, and, tossing his coat on the
floor, spat on his hands, and fiercely
exclaimed: 'Gents, I'm after the duck
that was out to Central Park with my
wife last Sunday.' And twenty-three
married men and eight or nine of the
boys suddenly dived under tbfl tables
and shonted : 'Don't shoot,'
—Dr. Risley, of Philadelphia, speak
ing of tbe condition of tbe eyes of
school children, says: 'Hypermetropic
eyes are more numerous than both
myopic and emmetropic; that next to
myopic astigmatism, pistinct lesions
are more prevalent in eyes with hyper
metropic astigmatism.' From this it
appears that 'the eyes have it'—but
what it is they have is a conundrum to
ns, and we regret that they have it.
—The rural New-Yorker offers}?,ooft
ivorth of presents for the best yields
from tbe seeds of their next Free Seed
Distribution among their subscribers.
In this way, as with its Experiment
Farm, the Rural is doing good work,
and is entitled to tbe support of all
progressiva farmers and gardeners. A
list of their new Distribution will be
found in our advertising columns. We
will receive subscriptions for this paper,
including tbe seed distribution, at this
office.
—Tbe United Pipe Line Company
finished their line from tbe Bald
territory to Herman station last
Thursday. At Herman the line con
nects with the line from that place to
Carbon Centre, where there are some
large tanks and a siding for filling- oil
cars. The distance from Bald Ridge
to Herman is about eight miles. The
gentlemen comprising the Bald Ridge
Oil Co. bave done the town and coun
ty a great service in developing this
territory.
—A New Castle paper, of last week,
slanders a citizen of this qounty as
follows: "A shoemaker from Butler
county was in this city on Wednesday,
who certainly ought to be well qualifi
ed to sit as a juror on the Guiteau
trial. He did not know who Guiteau
was. Did not know that President
Garfield was dead. Had never heard
of his having been shot. Indeed we
are not sure that he had ever heard
that Garfield bad been elected Presi
dent."
—Messrs. White and Holden, the
latest aspirants for feather-weight fistic
honors, are now probably in considera
ble doubt whether prize fighting pays.
With the prospect of from one to ten
years in an Ohio penitentiary staring
them in the face, tbey bave little hope
of getting away from punishment by
punching the law in the bread basket,
or by the most dexterous fibbing. Nev
ertheless, it does not yet appear that
tbe fate of tbe feather weights has in
duced Messrs. Ryan and Sullivan to
desist from trying their luck at tbe
same kind of sport.
—The business men of Meadville
held a meeting lately to decide upon a
[>lan of action in reference to the circu
ation of clipped and mutilated coin.
Tbe banks of tbe city declining to re
ceive tbe coin at its face value, it was
resolved as tbe sense of the meeting to
"decline further to receive clipped coin
in quarters, halves and dollars at its
face value, and we would recommend
as tbe standard of values for sucb coin
that which is approximately its value
in bullion, and we would further rec
ommend that tbe clipped coin be de-
Eosited with tbe banks to be sold as
ullion and retired from circulation."
—A citizen of Washington, Pa.,
who a few years ago wa.s obliged to
go into bankruptcy and settle with bis
creditors at BO much on the dollar, has
given notice that he is prepared to pav
off the unpaid balance of its debts, dol
lar for dollar. He is legally exempt
from these additional payments, haviug
surrendered his means for payment
when be failed, but inasmuch as he bas
been fortunate and made money since
that time he has refused to regard him
pelf as morally exempt from the dis
cbarge of bis debts, and so gives notice
that te will now pay in full. This is
a citizen to be proud of, and we do not
wonder tbe Washington papers speak
in terms of high praise of this man.
As has been said, tbe man whose creed
teaches bim to pay 100 cents on the
dollar has got true religion.— Wheeling
Intelligencer
—Does advertising pay: W. 11. Mar
shall, president of the Beaver county
agricultural society for the year 1881,
was firmly persuaded in bis own mind
that advertising did not pay. He suc
ceeded in getting bis fellow officers and
the managers of the society to believe the
same thing. To carry out their views
they concluded that to advertise the
fair this fall in the county papers would
bo a waste of money, and hence they
they neither published their meetings
nor advertised the premium list in
those weekly visitors to the hearth
stones of nearly all the people in the
county. This was the first time in the
history of the agricultural society of
Beaver county that the premium list
was not published in the county pa
[ pers, and this was the first year in its
history, too, that it proved an utter
failure, not only in the exhibits on the
grounds but in the number of people
who visited them. We have no
doubt but Mr. Marshall believes now
that advertising pays, and that the
county papers have some influence...

—The ruling of Justice Cox of Wash
jfjgtof) upon the eligibility of jurors is
a good omen of a commonisense, effi
cient conduct of the trial. He is re
ported as saying that 'in these days
of newspapers and railroads a man who
knows nothingaboutagreatpublic crime
is not the best juror,' and that a juror
otherwise qualified could act 'if be can
render an impartial verdict upon the
evidence.' Jleqce tbe travesty of jus
tice sometimes \yitnessed in court
rooms when intelligent men, fair-mind
ed and qual'fied to judge a cause, have
been set aside because they had read
somewhat of tbe case in the papers of
the day, and were frank enough to ad
mit that what they read had some
slight influence on their minds, in favor
of a dozen of the most ignorant ana
obtuse men obtainable, was not wit
nessed.
—Mrs. Louisa Mueller, wife of old
Dr. Mueller, whose place is in Marion
township, Beaver county, about one
mile south-west of Zelienople, this
county, committed suicide on Tuesday
night of last week by taking morphine.
She had not been in good health, and
she told Dr. Jos. Lusk, who visited
her the day previous, that tbey would
find her next morning with ber harida
folded. And so they did. When the
door of her room was broken open the
next morning at 11 o'clock, she was
lying in lied, dead, with a veil over
her face and ber hands nicely folded
She was about 57 years of age, has not.
had good health for years, and usually
allowed no one to disturb her until 10
o'clock in the morning. No one had
any suspicion of ber intentions Dr.
Mueller, had been to town on Tues
day and forgetting to buy his wife
some morphine as she had instructed
him to do, he was sent back for it.
The Dr. now blames himself for his
thoughtlessness, and there was quite s
scene at the graveyard on Thursday.
Mrs. Mueller was born and raised in or
about Pittsburgh. Her maiden name
was Lightner, and one of her sisters
committed suicide some years aso.

The Episcopalians have a happy
knack of keeping church and home to
gether. The ladies, the only refiners
of the merit of men, organized "Par
sonage Fund Parties" in order to col
lect the-wherewith to erect a home for
their beloved Rector, a residence that
would prove worthy of a man of his
intrinsic merit. The last of these
parties, which took place at Mrs. Mc-
Omber's, was all life and light, and,
after the hat had been gracefully past
'round by the hostess, its bottom was
well filled with contributions (this is
no insinuation about the size of the
coronal region of the owner of the hat.
Envious people throw out "insinua
tions" to the disparagement of those
rirhose merits they dare not openly
question ; we mean to state that six
dollars and twenty-five cents were
collected in small coins of 2i cents
each, which, in covering the bottom of
the hat, witnessed rather in favor of
the intellectual endowments of the
person who owneu the hat. I'ardon
our explicitness, we endeavor to
guard ajrainst erroneous comprehen
sion.) L. V. M.
An Old Man'** Folly.
Some time since Jesse Baldwin, a
very wealthy but eccentric citizen who
lives near Youngstown, Ohio, took
$17,000 in bonds to the Treasury De
partment in Washington and demand
ed gold for them. He brought the
money home and deposited it in a safe
under his hallway, with other large
sums in gold. One night last week
five burglars entered the hou.se, blew
open the safe and carried off between
$:{0,000 and $40,000 in gold. They
also stole Baldwin's two horses and
carriage and fled. Bladwin's son-in
law pursued them and a running fire re
sulted. Nobody was wounded, and
the robbers escaped with the plunder.
The circumstances attending this
robbery call to mind the celebrated
Benninghoff robbery, near Petroleum
Center, some sixteen years ago. The
amount taken then was larger, some
s.'{oo,ooo, but the means employed
were the same. Five professionals
1 from Philadelphia went to the house in
; the night, overcame the family, affect
; cd the robbery and rode away with the
lold man's horsen. The whole job was
engineered by Jim Saeger and Home
! boon companions in Saegertown, who
employed the cracksmen to do the job
and paid tbem liberally for tbe work.
I They were subsequently discovered,
| and Saetrer's associates have all been
j punished more or less, but tbe cracks-
I men and Jim Saeger are still at large.
| Saeger is in Texas ro'ling in wealth,
and it is said be nas compromised with
| Benninghoff.
I The two professions of law and med
icine seem overcrowded in portions of
' the West. An lowa lawyer of some
I years' practice is now serving as loco
iiioti?e fireiaatj op tbe Cbieaeo, Bur
lington and Quincy railroad, and a
physician of twelve } ears' practice is
acting as freight conductor on the same
road.
