are about even. The House committees' Sena

—The constable's notice for the election of

Tuesday, has been posted in different places ia
the town. The officers to be elected are
Burgess Assistant Burgess, two Councilmen,
one High Constable, two Constables, two School
Directors, a Judge of Election and two In
spectors for each ward, one Assessor and one
Auditor. Our citizens should see to it that the
best men, who will accept the offices of Council
men and School Directors, be elected irre
spective ol politics. Tne streets aud sidewalks
of the town arc, at present, in a verv bad con
dition. Several candidates for constable are
already electioneering and our people should
remtmber that asa constable is an officer of the
law, he should be a law abiding citizen. No
man whose reputation for viciousness is so
general that people allow him to impose upon
theui, rather than have a fuss with him is a fit
man to be constable.
—The arbitrators in the case of Newton
Lurting vs. John Belfour, of Adams township,
this county, and William Kennedy, of Pine
township, Allegheny county, for damages for
the assauit and battery committed upon him by
Belfour on the 27th of June, 1881, awarded
Lurting $1 ,GCO and cris's. The defendants have
the right to appeal to Court if they choose to
do so. Our readers will remember the case
and that Belfour served a term in the work
house for the nssault and battery. There was a
dispute between Lurting and Keunedv as to
the title of six acres of land in Adams town
ship ; Kennedy, aud Belfour who was acting as
the guardian of Kennedy, he be in.; r minor, at
tempted to take forcible |>ossess!ou of it; Lurt
ing came out with a hoe in his hand, an
altercation ensued lietween Lurting and Belfour
during which Belfour wrested the hoe from
Lurting and struck him on the head with it
two or more times. Lurting now claims that
by reason of Belfour's a-sault upon him he hag
lost the use of one eye and is otherwise injured
physically, and brought suit for damages with
tho result as stated. The case was taken up
last Wednesday morning, occupied three days,
and was well attended by citizens of Adams and
Pine townships.
—The itemized statement of the receipts and
expenditures of Butler county, for the year
ISB2, is published this week, and it shows the
county to be in a very satisfactory financial
condition. There are over fourteen thousand
dollars in the county treasury, and the taxes
due the county for 1881 and 1882, yet unpaid,
equ«l the county debt. The receipts of the
county from all sources for last year amounted
to over sixty-four thousand dollars, and the ex
penses to something over fifty-four thousand.
Some of the tables in the report may not uot be
generally understood—for instance, the "treas
urer's receipts for iiercentage" represents the
salaries of the different collectors, and the
"treasurer's receipts by voucher" means ex
onerations for uncollectable taxes, and these
two amounts added to the "cash account —re-
ceipts from collectors," make the $43,02!) 00 of
the first table as amounts received from col
lectors. The treasurer's account with the
boroughs and townships—amounts received
for taxes and from sales of unseated lands, and
paid to the different townsh'ps and boroughs
will bo readily understood. The "common
wealth account" means costs aud expenses put
on the county, eitiier by law or by juries. Some
of the accounts are bought up by different
parties before they are collectable, and the
names of the purchasers alone appear on the
account.

—The County Commissioners have given
David Cupps the job of filing in at each end of
the new bridge and the filling iu will be done
immediately. One of the piers of the Plank"
road bridge was injured by the flood last Satur
day, but the bridge is still considered safe.
—During a debate in the House at Washing
ton, last Saturday, Mr. Wilson insinuated that
Blr. Cot wis in the employ of the British free
tiaders, that every time Cox made a free trade
speech it was wafted across the water, and the
free traders sang back
"Tickle me, Coxey, tickle me, do ;
You tickle me and I'll tickle you."
—One of our subscribers iu New Zealand
sends us the following solution of the "mathe
matical problem" io last week's paper—"Oa the
first day the boys sold apples at I and i a cent
apiece, or 1-3 plus l-2=5-t» of a cent for two ap
ples, or 5-12=25-60 for one apple; Rafter going
into partnership they sold the apples at 5 for
2 cents, or 2-5 of a cent =24-00 of a cent apiece
and lost 1-60 of a cent on each apple or one
cent on the 60 apules." That is simple enough
but we would like to have one of our readers in
that or some other part of the world solve the
square and rectangle puzzle that went the
rounds of the papers some time ago. Why is
it, that you can cut a rectangular piece of pa
per, measuring say 5 inches by 13 inches or 65
square inches, into four pieces, and put the
pieces together so as to make a perfect square
Bxß inches, or 04 square inohes ? What becomes
of the odd square inch?
—The 9tory of the capture of a ga;ig of train
robbers in Utah on Sunday and Monday, of
last week, reads like a chapter from a dime
novel. The outlaws had a strongly fortified
retreat in the miuutains, and but for the over
whelming force led by two sheriffs against
them they would doubtless liava offered a stub
born resistance. Two of them were captured
outside thci stockade, after being seriously
wounded. It is said the allocking party had
giant powder bombs which they lutended to
throw into the robbers' fort in case they could
not otherwise dislodge them. These Western
outlaws, who used to have only stages, emi
grant trains, and express wagins to rob, have
readily adapted themselves to the introduction
of railroads and telegraphs, and apparently
they rather like the change, for one railroad
train often contains more booty than a dozen
old-fashioned caravans. It can hardly be re
garded as surprising that in a region where rob
bers mnstbe pursued and besieged like an ene
my's army lyuch law often reigas instead of
the law of the land.
Mountain Avalanche.
DENVER, January 31.—Last night
about 3 miles from Created Butte oc
curred one of the most disastrous snow
slides ever known to the Rocky Moun
tain regions. Late in the night thirty
men employed in the Howard &
Smith anthracite coal mines were start
led from their sleep by an ominous
rumbling noise and almost instantly an
avalanche was upon them. The build
ing in which they were sleeping was
crushed to atoms and the human occu
pants were hurled down the mountain
side. A rescuing party started out
from Crested Butte as soon as the
news was received, and after several
hours' indefatigable labor the men
were all uncovered. Philip Carman,
Logan Inman, L. Richards, William
Moore, Charles Bettes, J. J. Ray
mond, and one other, uame unknot,
were found dead. Eighteen others
were wounded and several fatally.
All of the company's expensive ma
chinery was destroyed.
A passenger train yesterday, when
within six miles of Crested Butte, di
vided, the engine going ahead to clear
the track. When about four miles
from where it left the coaches, the en
gine was struck by a snow slide,
ditched and is now under about twenty
feet of snow. A wrecking engine,
which left this morning could not get
nearer than two miles of the coaches
and returned to-night for provisions
for the starving passengers.
Now is the time to treat Catarrh of
long standing. Elys' Cream Balm
reaches old and obstinate cases, where
all other remedies fail. Do not ne
glect procuring a bottle, as in it lies
the relief you seek. Price 50 costs.
Apply into nostrils with little fin
ger.
A gentleman from Orwell, Pa., call
ed my attention to Ely's Cream Balm
as a remedy for Catarrh, Hay Fever,
&c. He was so earnest in asserting
it to be a positive cure (himself having
been cured by it) that I purchased a
stock. The Balm has already affected
a number of enres. P. F. HYATT, M.

Notes on Current Events.
—One of the conditions of life in
India is amusingly illustrated by the
following resolution recently passed
by the Municipal Commisioners of
Bellary : "Resolved, That as the loose
monkeys in the town have become ex
ceedingly troublesome by attacking
woman and children carrying eatables
and overturning the tiles of the roofs
of houses in the town, these animals
be caught and sent out into the jungles,
and that arrangement be made that
monkeys may not receive any injury
while being seized. The Commission
ers vote the sum of Rs. 200 for meet
ing the expenditure which may be in
cured in carrying out this resolution.*'
—Real estate in Jerusalem is evi
dently by no means stagnant, since
the American Consul in that city re
ports the issue of i>ermits for building
sixty-five new houses and lor adding to
sixty-three others. "Houses of modern
style are fashionable in the suburbs
and there is a rise in rents. Not only
has the population of Jerusalem in
creased during the year, but that of
Jaffa and Hebron, the chief gain be
ing an influx of Russian Jews, fleeing
from persecution. "Judea for the
Jews" may soon become a rallying
cry. Jaffa contains nearly 20,000 peo
ple ; but the Consul regrets that most
of these have not yet been educated to
the best use of the pocket handkerchief.
Here would seem to be a field for mis
sionary work.
—The withdrawal of the charge of
murder against Frank James and his
subsequent detention upon a charge of
assault appears to the Kansas City
Journal a ridiculous and disgraceful
proceeding, quite sufficient to subject
Missouri to the jeers of the country and
divert capital and industry from the
State. "After years of hard work,"
says the Journal, after the sacrifice of j
many lives and the expenditure of
many thousands of dollars, we cap
ture one man. Rut do not punish
him. We never will. Neither will
Minnesota, for he will not be given up
to that State while there is a charge
against him here All that i 3 neces
sary to preserve the great bandit is to
keep to lodging charges against him.
* * * * The people may as
well look the calamity in the face.
Frank James is a double murderer.
He has killed, robbed and plundered.
We all know it as well as he. Rut we
can never convict him. Such is the
law. It is powerless to encompass him
here, but it is powerful enough to pre
vent the great State of Minnesota from
taking him where he can be convicted,
and strong enough to put a mighty
arm between the accused and the wit
nesses from Northfield who could hang
him
—lsaac 11. Vincent, State Treasur
er of Alabama, sent a letter to his
chief clerk on Monday of last week,
stating that his accounts were short,
and that he intended to start for New
York to straighten the matter out. The
letter was laid before Governor O'Neal,
who torwarded a communication in re
gard to the embezzlement to both
Houses of the Legislature. An in
vestigation of the Treasurer's accounts
by a committee shows that the deficit
will amount to $227,000, which is se
cured by good bondsmen. The money
has been taken within the last two
years, and was used to speculate in
cotton.
MONTPELIER, Vt., March 24, 1
More than fifty years ago, when I
was a boy and suffered from a cold or
aDy throat or lung affection, I took
Downs' Elixir, and considered it a
sovereign remedy for all such difficul
ties. And from its frequent use in
all the cubsequeut years I have seea
no reason to qualify my opinion of
this standard remedy for all those
diseases which are so fatle in our cli
mate.

ACoo! Thief.
When Mr. Henry Whitmire, of Cen
tre township, arose from his bed and
went d. w» stairs last Thursday morn
ing, he found an unsigned note oa his
table or desk, advisir.g him to keep his
doors locked, and an investigation
proved that tbe thief who wrote the
note gave good advice, for he had en
tered the house during the night and
had taken away Henry's overcoat and
$8 in money that he found in a drawer.
He had also entered Henry's stable
and stolen Henry's blood-bay mare
worth $l5O, and a bridle and saddle.
Mr. Whitmire and a neighbor traced
the horse, by her tracks, to Millers
town, but lost the trace there. There
was a sale of livery stock at fiast Brady
that day and they should have gone on
to that poiut but did not do so.
There is hardly an adult person liv
ing but is sometimes troubled with
kidney difficulty, which is the most
prolific and dangerous cause of all dis
ease. There is no sort of need to have
any form of kidney or urinary trouble
if Hop Bitters is taken occasionly.
New Castle's Danger.
NEW CASTLE, Feb. s. —The Sbenan
go has been constantly rising since
Saturday afternoon, and at 7:30 to
night it is overflowing its banks at
this point. Nearly the entire western
portion of the city adjacent to the river
is inundated, and people living in that
section are taking out their household
effects.
Still more dire consequences are an
ticipated from the uprising. Some
miles above the city are two gorges,
which are expected to come down
with the swollen stream, and should
they do so, it is very probable that
houses will be swept away. It is now
impossible for pedestrians to go to
and from the Pittsburgh and Erie sta
tion, a swift-running stream of deep
water lying between it and parts of
the city lying east of it.
A Reliable Port Wine.
Mr. A. Speer, of New Jersey, whose
Port Grape Wine has such a wide
reputation, and which physicians pre
scribe so generally, was the first in
this country to import the Port
vines and to plant vineyards of them
and to introduce the art of making wine
from the Oporto Cirapu which is now
the best wine to be had, and has be

Lancaster's Weather Prophet.
Lancaster, I'a., also has a weather
prophet, named J. W. Thorne. He
differs from Vennor and Wiggins in
that he makes no secret of the theory
on which his predictions rest. Iu
brief it is the moon. Every nineteen
years she repeats within an hour and
a half her phases, and as it may be af
fected by the planets, the weather of
the winter of nineteen years ago indi
cates the weather of this. His pre
diction for this winter was that it
would be moderate with better sleigh
ing than last. "The spring," he says,
"will surely come early and be well
sustained. The summer will be
warmer, with more rain than last, and
it will be more abundant in fruits and
grains than last, excepting wheat,
which will be inferior to last.

Carroll's Lecture.
Dr. Carroll's lecture, under the auspices of
the lvccture Association, on the evening of
February 15, 188.t, will attord our people a rare
opportunity of hearing one of the "popular
orators" of the day. The press of Philadelphia ;
and New York are quite pr< fn*e in their en- j
cumiu.'in of his lecture on "The V«.>iMan in ,
Chains." The Philadelphia /»/ < rrr says,
"From the moment he began to speak, Dr.
Carroll had complete control of his audience,
who broke out into round after round of ap
plause as one burst of fiery eloquence followed
another, and hu ihetl into silence whenever the
speaker lowered his voice to deliver some touch- i
ing anecdote or pathetic description." The
New York llerall speaks equally enco'.iraging
lyofhiin. Our literary people as well as ail
lovers of useful and interesting entertainments
will certainly embrace the opportunity of
hearing Dr. Carroll.
