The "land merchant" game is the latest
one lining played upon farmers. There ap
pears to l»e a gang of scamp* in this county
at present, pretending to buy farms but
wanting to steal. People should not give

their houses and homes. They should watch
all such and be always on their guard.

no mark ujion him whatever. His ncek,
however, was dislocated, and he died a few
minutes after being kicked.
—They had a small fire in the Brady build
ing ou the Diamond, last Wednesday morning,
but the hose company easily extinguished it.
The Are originated in the ceiling ot the office
occupied by Marshall and Peffer, Etui*.,
through which a stove-pipe passed to a flue
opening hi the room above. The floor of the
room above was partially burned and had to be
torn up in order to extinguish the flames be
tween it and the ceiling.
—According to the census of ISBO the total
numlier of felons at hard labor in prisons and
penitentiaries] at that time was 30and
4,883 convicts were at work outside of prison
walls, under lessees or under county officials.
About 43,000 of the prisoners did some work,
and 10,000 were maintained in idleness; 54,186
wsre males and 5,000 females. 40,338 native
and 12,!>17 foreign; 42,'J!>I white and 10,901
colored. Among the colored were included
531 Chinamen, 1 Japanese, and 101 Indians.
—A row occurred at the Graham school
house in Connoquenessing twp. last Friday
evening, wliich might have resulted serious
ly. A school exhibition was being given that
evening, the room was crowded and bad or
der prevailed. This Mr. I'arnhart, the teach
er, objected to and when| Mr. McKinney took
out pencil and paper and announced that he
would take the names of the disorderly per
son* and have them arrested a row com
menced during which, it is said, several re
volvers were displayed.
—Butler county does not possess the only
soap mines in the world. A Mr Taylor, of
Wyoming, has discovered a mountain of
natural soap in that territory, large enough
to keep the whole human race clean for ull
time. Not only is this excellent product
smooth, firm and emollient, but it possesses
some peculiar quality which makes it the dead
liest foe to dirt and grease ever put upon the
market; and the owner confidently expects
that it will out-cleanse the famous article war
ranted by losh Billings "to take the spots ofT
a coach dog in three days."
—A rule forbidding the driukiug of liquor
by the employees or a Canada railway has just
been adopted. .Such a rule is always in order,
but the records of railroad accidents iu the
United States do not show that drink has been>
the cause of very many of them. Stupidity
carelt-suess, disobedience, the fatigue of over
worked bauds, and the intrusting of men will'
ing to take laborer's wages with Work requir
ing intelligence and a] sense of responsibility
not likely to be had for the money, have been
at the bolt" in of the most notable mishaps.
—The Swede, Johnson , who plead guilty to
murder in the second degree Inst week, was
taken into court last Friday and sentenced to
be confined iu the Western Penitentiary for
seven years. He slated to the Court that he
had no recollection of having committed the
crime, thai lie was intoxicated Ihnt night, and
that lie had no malice towards Mr. Fleming.
The Mherilfstuted that Johnson had behaved
hinivll well wtiiln iu his charge, and the
I'onrt, after exacting a promise from the pris
oner to abstain from liquor after serving hi*
sentence, lixed his term at seven years.
It has been frequently urged that the prop
er wiy to prevent jobbery at Washington is to
make the government poor, and this desirable
end is likely to be accomplished for a time,
for the Commissioner of Pensions now says
that his office is in such good working condi
tion that he will prohahly be aide to allow
from eighty to a hundred millions iu pensions
during the year. If we have a surplus, mid it
cannot be got ri'l of by redeeming bonds, it is
better that it should be given to disubled sur
vivors of our army und to the widows ami
children of soldiers whodicd than to any mem
bers of (he V'uiid army of jobbers that invests
tip: nntior al capital every winter. 'I he outlay
promised I. r the year, however, should prompt
at least one ol ill.; several hundred members of
Cong ' to make and persist iu an attempt to
• evise the pension laws and to remove from
the nation's roll of honor the thousands of
pensioners whose "disability" is a shameless
fiction. *
A Kittanuing mother writes to the TIM :
of that venerable old borough to complain ol
the system of education in the public schools,
as applied to her two children—a son, ageil
nine, and a daughter, aired eleven years. She
j finds her children's minds wholly bent on
learning "Mary hail a Little I.amb,'" and the
! "Boy Stood on the Burning Deck,'' which they
I can repeat with an aptne«s that surprises her
To this added the wonderful doggerels of
Mother Goose, which they know by heart,
while they "'are unable to correctly spell words
ot three or four sylables or read short and easy
pieces from their readers and spellers.'' She
call the attention of the School Board to the
facts as stated, and hopes for relief.
—Mr. Jacob Kaylor, of Slipperyrock town
, ship, was committed to jail last Friday evening
j by Esq. J. M. Thompson, of Brady township,
| by virtue of a warrant issued on the oath of
: Samuel S. Bard. Kaylor is insane and Sheriff
i Donaghy petitioned/rourt next day for a com-
I mission to enquirejinto the case. The com
mission was appointed, who, after examining
the prisoner, reported him to be insane, and
the Court ordered that Kaylor be taken to
Dixmont Hospital, and granted a rule on the
overseers of the poor of Slipperyrock town
ship U< show cause why Sliperyrock township
should uot be certified as the last place of legal
sett 'tnieut of said Jacob Kaylor, according to
law.
—One Ed. Townsend, who, with his father
some four years ago, was sent to the peniten.
tiary from this county for three years, for
stealing a horse and buggy from Moses
Thotnjison, Esq., of Clinton twp., is, it seems
back again aiid at bad tricks. He was ar
rested last week at the house of Jacob liider,
Center twp., on charge of burglary commit
ted at Parker —was taken to Sun bury, thence
to Parker where he managed to escajtefrom the
lock up during the night, and has not been
again secured. From his movements he is
is supposed to be one of a gang of scoundrels
now or lately in the upper part of this county
—some of" them on the pretense of wanting to
buy farms or laud. Our farmers and all
country folks, should give such fellows a cool
reception and make a careful investigation be
fore having anything to do with them. Don't
let them stay over night with you.
—A hearing in the case of the Common
wealth versus John M. Thompson Esq., who
was arrested on a charge of forgery, preferred
by W. W. McDermott, was had before lisr,'
Walker, of Butler, on Monday of this week.
W. W. McDermott was the only witness ex
amined. He stated that he went to Thomp
son's office on the 18th of February, 1881, in
response to a request in writing to that effect
sent him by Thompson on the 9th of Feb. 'Bl,
and that while in Thompson's office and after
some talk regarding money to payoff the Mrs.
Cochran note of S4OO, Thompson wanted hiin
to sign a note for SSOO, which he refused to do
but that he did sign a note for SIOO -as he
supposed, that he signed the note without
reading it, that he cannot read writing and that
Thompson did uot read the note to him ;
that he had gone to Thompson fur money be
fore that liine but not alter, that he afterwards
called on Thompson for the note but did not
get it, but that Thompson told him it would
never trouble him, that he did not hear of
the note again until he heard tlfat it had
been entered on the docket at Pittsburg.
Cashier Campbell of the Savings bank was
the next and only other witness called for
but he happened to be out of towu. The
prosecution stated that they wanted to prove
by him that \V. C. Thompson, the Col's son
and partner had notified the bank of this
$4,000 judgment while McDermott was trying
to get a loan on his farm. This the defense
did not deny, but did deny that the Col. had
authorized his son to do so. This was the
only evidence produced and the Esq., after
listening to four lengthy arguments by the
counsel engaged two on e:ich side, discharg
ed the defendant on the ground that there was
no evidence to substantiate the charge of foi>
gcry as alleged in the information, and that
the statute of limitation cut off the charge of
false pretense, the note having been signed in
February'Bl, two years and over before the
information was made.

Terrible Outrage.
K iMamiing Times of 2.'W, inst.j
East Friday night or Saturday morning, a
terrible outrage was jierpctrated a lew miles
from Freeport, in this county. A young man
named I/iwrey Glenn, a resident of Butler
county, but who follows the business of well
borer, and has been engaged in this county,
called on a young lady, at the residence of Mr.
W. J. Kiskadden, near Free|»ort, ami after
passing the evening pleasantly, started home
itihisliuggy. The road at this place is rather
dreary, and Mr. Glenn had not preceedtid fur
until two men appeared, one of whom threw a
stone with terrible force, striking Mr. Glenu
on the head, knocking him from the buggy,
and rendering hiin unconscious. How long
he remained in this condition he could not tell,
but thinks about one hour. When he recover
ed consiousness, he found that his horse wrs
gone; that tin- harness had been cut to pieces,
and the buggy smashed. As fast as bis weak
ness would permit, he hastened back to Mr.
Kiskadden'* house, and securing the gentle
man's assistance, started after the horse. Mr.
Glenn's condition, however, would not permit
him to make mueh exertion,and he had to be
helped back to the house, where he is lying in
a dangerous condition at this writtiug. Mr.
Glenn has, we believe, a '-due to the dastardly
perpetrators of this outrage, and we hope the
vidians may be apprehended, and be made ml',
fur a long term in the penitentiary lor their
cowardly and premeditated attack upon a de
fenscless man. A little tar and feathers pre
vious to their trip down the river, would not be
a ba>l idea.
