THE lecture of Rev. Smith in the M.

was well attended and pronounced as
very good. •
IF to no pay no free passes on rail
roads were added the probability is the

THE Republican Senators at Ilarris-
Uurg have resolved to consider no more
propositions from the House on the
subject of apportionment bills.
ATTENTION is directed to the \\o
mana' Christian Temperance Conven
tion, which meets at Sunburv, this
county, Wednesday, October 3d.
SOME new parliamentary rules were
found in the Senate at llarris u urg last
week among them that 23 members
present make 26, cr a quorum of 50.
A DETAILED account *of the silver
wedding of Mr. and Mrs. S. I*. hakin,
of Allegheny township, came too late
for this paper and will appear
next week.
THE suit brought against the county,
referred to in another place, of this p&"
per reveals a matter that is astonishing if
true. We hope an explanation can be
made of what see ms so seriously to affect
individuals and and officials as well as
the tax payers of the whole county.
At the recent Administrator's sale
of the Adams property, in Fairview
this county, Capt. Thomas Hayes bid
in the old Adams Hotel, with the ob
ject, we learn, of transferring the build
ing into school rooms for educational
purposes, certainly a laudable purpose.
OUR Legislators having now agreed
to set without pay and "find them
selves," the people are willing they re
main in pession continually—at least
as long us they sat at the expense of
the people. That will make the ac
counts about square.
MR. J. T. BLAIR, of Greenville, who
has been the Superintendent of the
Shenango and Allegheny railway and
its branches, has been appointed Gen
eral Manager of the same. Air. Blair
is a very worthy and justly popular
railroad officer.
A dispatch from Mercer, to the
Pittsburgh C'o miner finl Gazelle of

Pardee min«s still continue and that
police force is necessary to preserve
order, and that the miners ?.t Coaltown

to work.
WE regret to learn that Mr. Eben
ezer Christy, of Washington twp , this

being thrown from a buggy. It ap
pears he was over in Clarion county
on a visit and when coming down the
hill to or near Emlenton, on his return
home, his horso ran away and he was
thrown from his buggy ami injured so
badly that he lived but a short time.
At this writing, Tuesday, wc have no

National Convention, for the nomina
tion of candidates for President and
Vice President. The suggestion is a
good one, provided the hotel accommo
dations there are sufficient. As thou
sands always attend the National Con
ventions it is probable the lodging, etc.,
arrangements at Crosson would have to
be enlarged. It is advisable to have
the Convention held out of a large city,
if a proper place can be found.
Exciting Oil News.
The well drilling on Green farm, on
the I'lank road, three miles south of
1 Sutler, is Hearing completion and gives
a very favorable showing up. Last
wenk, although but upon the top of the
«and rock, there were two or three
flows of oil. The sand is the best yet
found in any well hereabout. On a
personal examination we think we
never saw better. This ha;; created
hopes that the well will be a good one.
If so, its location is an important one
and another boom must certainly come
to Butler. Thi.s WC( k will likely de

A THRU IX THE SENATE
.Decisions Which Raised an
Uproar.
HARIUSKI'KG, September 18.
The Senate was kept in continuous
session by the Democrats for over five
hours to-dav, in order to defeat a reso
lution providing for only two sessions
a week. After the chaplain had earn
estly prayed for the Senate. Senator
Laird asked the privilege of submitting
a report from the minority of the appro
priation committee. The Senate
promptly refused to receive the report
by a party vote. George Handy Smith
made a motion, which was carried by
a decisive vote, that the session be ex
tended until the order of original reso
lutions had been gone through with
and the appropriation bill had been
passed. This was followed by the
oflering of a resolution by Senator Herr
for a two-hour session on Tuesday and
Friday of each week.
GORDON SAVS IT IS REVOLUTION.
Mr. Gordon was qr.ickly on his feet
to denounce the proposition as revo
lutionary and to declare that the Dem
ocrats were justified in adopting all
proper expedients to resist its passage.
Mr. Iferr said the resolution was cor
rective, instead of revolutionary. It
was predicated on the solemn determi
nation of the Republican Senators not
to further time in the Legisla
ture, and was a logical outgrowth of
the position assumed by the Republican
members eight weeks ago. It might
as well be understood now that the
resolution would become the law of the
Senate. Senator Wagner, Democrat,
offered an amendment to Senator Herr's
resolution, providing for two sessions
a dav, which was defeated. Senator
Patton, Democrat, thought Herr's prop
osition was revolutionary, but he was
in favor of giving the Republicans lots
of rope. .He woul J do nothing to stop
their haste in rushing.to the gallows
whitfh would drop them into political
eternity.
A BREEZE OVER A POINT OF ORDER.
The Democrats, having had a con
sultation and agreed not to vote on the
resolution to fix two sessions a week,
only twenty-three Senators answered
to their names, three less than a quo
rum. Among these were Patton and
Shearer, the latter having voted by
mistake. Senator Lee raised the point
of order that the Senators present who
are paired and responded to their names
should be counted in, making up a
quorum. The Chair—Mr Mylin—
sustained the point. Mr. Gordon ap
pealed from the decision of the Chair
and on this subject there was a long
discussion, which showed considerable
party bitterness, and Kennedy took the
Chair. Twenty-one Republicans voted
to sustain the Chair, the Democrats de
clining to vote, and the Chair deci'led
that—not a quorum having voted—the
question was undetermined. Herr ap
pealed from the decision, which Laird
contended could not be done, because
an appeal was pending. Gordon made
an ineffectual effort for adjournment.
Senator Mylin having resumed the
chair, a call of the Senate was ordered
and thirty-three Senators answered to
their names. Reyburn then took the
chair and a vote was ordered on the
question of sustaining the decision of
the President pro tern.
The Democrats again declined to
vote. The yeas were 21, the nays 2
Patton and Nelson—and two pairs
were announced by McKnightand Lee.
After the yeas and nays had been called
the Chair directed the names'attached
to the appeal to bo announced. The
Chair decided that they hould be con
sidered in making up a quorum and the
decision of the President pro tcin. was
declared to be sustained. Gordon,
Kennedy, Wagner and Ross appealed
from the decision arid Herr moved to
lay the motion on the table. Only 23
Senators voted, but the Chair decided
that the motion was carried by again
including the Senators who had signed
the appeal in making up a quorum.
"I simply want to say,'' said Gordon,
"that I denounce the decision of the
Chair as revolutionary, and it required
this Senate to take the lawful officer
out and put a man in there who had
the cheek to make the decision.''
QUELLING A MUTINY.
The Chair ordered the Sergeant-at-
Arms to take Gordon into custody, and
Senator Smith, stepping in front of the
Clerk's desk, said : "1 think the aisles
ought to be eh arcd of those people that
want to raise s, rebellion here, and if
there is any lighting to be done let us
go outside and do it. I will d « my
share when the time comes." There
was considerable confusion at the time,
but it soon subsided.
Senator Cooper then called up the
appropriation bill. After several mo
tion.-; for adjournment lia«l been <! tltir
ed lost the Clerk proceeded to read tho
bill. When the first section hid linen
read Gordon and Kennedy called for
the yeas and navs, bat the C; iir refin
ed to recognize th'-m. Kennedy said
this wan a revolutionary proceeding
nod an outrage on the Senate, a-d
Gordon indorsed all that bis colleague
had said. The two i'hihtdelphia Sena
tors demanded tlie yean and nays at
the completion of the reading of every
section, I,lit tin; Chair paid no attention
to them, »l'hou^h' hey clamored loudly
for recognition The Chair here order
ed the Hefgeant-at-Arms to take eha»g6
of Kennedy. The oJlicer proceeded to
perform his duty, telling the Senator to
take hi* seat. Kennedy, addressing
the Chair, ;:• i«l :
"I am willing to yield to the officer,
but I want to know why I am taken
into his custody."
OOROON AM) KKNNKIiV OBDKBED I'ltOM
TIIK IIALU
The Chair treated the remarks with
apparent indifference and Gordon and
Kennedy perflated in demanding their
constitutional rights. Tho Senators
were then ordered by Iteyburn to be
removed from the hall. Gordon claim
ed (hat the Chair had exceeded h:
authority; that the only power he!
possessed wu:s to no m pel them to appeal
before the bar of ttie Senate. ('oo|»cr
having jocularly remarked that the
Senators had no right to bo heard, be
ing constructively absent, Kennedy re
marked that he would rather be absent j
than to act in so de picable a manner
as tho Chair had acted. K' urn dy was
again ordered to bo rcjtjoyod, when
Gordon f aid :
"1 agree with him and you cju take
rue, too."
After iniK'h c iiifn-ion the < iia.r al
lowed a vote to be taken on the <JU"H
tiou to transcribe the appropriation biii
for third rcudin*. (Inly twenty one
•Senators voting and only two pM.;»v
ing announced, the Chair imnounecd (
that, no quorum vOtSP.g, the order to
transcribe, was not agreed to. The
Senate then adjourned until 9 P. M.
THE EVENING SESSION I'E.UFFI 1..
Great interest was feit in the session
of the Senate to-rdght in view of the
rulings of Reyburn in the afternoon.
Senator Gordon telegraphed to York
for Lieutenant Governor Black, who
arrived in time to preside. Senator
Cooper summoned the presence of
several Senators, two of whom—Stew
art and Hughes—were in their seats
to-night. At the evening session the
chamber was crowded bv people who
had made their appearance in the hope
that there would he exciting times.
Lieutenant Governor Black presided
and the Republicans were reinforced by
Stewart and Hughes. There was no
quorum of Republicans present. After
some preliminaries Cooper moved to
postpone the consideration of the ap
propriation hill for the present and paid
it would be better for the dignity of
the Senate, when the bill was not im
gortant, to let the blood of the other
side cool and not to make martyrs of
some who seem to seek martyrdom.
Gordon justified the course of the
Democrats in resisting the tactics of
the Republican Senators. After further
discussion Cooper's motion to postpone
consideration of the appropriation bill
was adopted and the Senate adjourned
until to-morrow morning.
The Republican Senators, led by
Cooper, liberally contributed toward
the prolongation of the session of the
Legislature to-day. The withdrawal
of pay from the members bad produced
results looking to the disintegration of
the Democratic forces, but the conduct
of Senator Reyburn in the chair this
afternoon has united the Democrats,
and if the sentiments expressed by mem
bers of that party are sincere the end
of the session is far distant. Many
Republicans denounce the rulings of
Reyburn as hurtful to the Republican
party. l'h iladelphia Times.
COR R ESPON DENCE.
Beaver Falls.
BEAVER PALLS, Sept. 8, 1883.
An hour and a half's ride on the
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad brings one to the busy, bust
ling, thriving town, whose name ap
pears at the head of this letter. I sup
pose it was so named on account of
being situated near the fails on the
Beaver river. Just how near the town
is I am unable to say, for I have not
been fortunate enough to see them.
This town is situated in a smoothing
iron-shaped valley, with the sharp end
southward. On the east it is bounded
by the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie R. R.
and the Beaver river, whose shallow
waters flow calmly on towards the
Ohio. Along the western side of the
town the hand of man has built the
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
R. R. and nature's forces have piled a
wall of rugged hills, clothed to the top
with a dense forest of oaks and other
deciduous trees.
This place contains about eight
thousand inhabitants, 1 am told, and,
like the early church, is adding to its
number daily. It might be called a
miniature Pittsburgh, or a young
Birmingham. The same phenomena
are to be seen hero that arc to lie seen
in Pittsburgh, only on n smaller scale.
The thundering of the cars and shrill
scream of the locomotive keep one
awake at night; the long-winded
shrieks of the whistles of the different
works awaken you half refreshed in
the morning; and a similar foggy
f moke reminds you that this is no dis
tant relation of the well named "Smoky
City." Here are to be found wire
works, chain works, novelty works,
cutlery works, siw work*, lit-j works,
and a large steel works in process of
construction, which will employ, it is
said, two hundred men. Beaver Falls
owes much of its growth and prosperi
ty to the fostering care and shrewd
management of the famed Economite
community, which has a bank here, a
large interest in the manufacturing es
tablishments, and which formerly own
ed all the land hereabouts.
Quite a number of the streets are
are paved, but, like most towns of this
si/.", there is great room for improve
ment as regards streets and pavements.
A new post cilice was built here about
two years ago. A new basin is being
made on an eminence north of the
town, and water works arc being con
trived t > pump the water out of the
Beaver river into the new basin.
There are three public school build
inirs here and t* ere are thirty teacher#
employed, and thirteen hundred pupils
attended school last year. Oo a clear
day an observer in the lower part of
tsv/n can see away to the north a mas
sive building, thr«- storied high, and <1
tower on top. What is it? It is
Geneva College, the institution where
the descendants of the old Scotch Cov
enanters educate their sons and daugh
ters. Its very name carries us over tho
blue waters, away into the interior of
huroj.e, anjong the far-famed mountain
scenery of .Switzerland, tt has a fine
building, a grand situation, a corps of
eight learned professors. a successful
past, a cap city for two or tl.r'-e hun
dred htuden s, and the prospects for a
glorious and useful future. There were
one hundred and ten students in at
tendance last year, and the propitious
opening of this week foretells a largo
Increase for thij year.
The.se are a few of the many things
that I might write concerning tins pros
perous littl" place. i( time and oppor
tunity permit, perhaps at some future
time, i shall enter more minutely into
its history, and also tell you cjncern
i":' some of the Butler countians that
are here. S<| iohjnki;.
A party of Englishmen who are
on a tour through the western portion
of this e rnntry were taken one day
week, while they were at Fargo,
Dakota, to the great Ibtlrymple wheat
farm, eighteen miles west of ti.at. piace
and there saw sun •thing that gave
them a more intelligent idea of the
wenl'h and greatne. -s of the United

THE LUTHER FESTIVAL.
Great Day at Wittenburg, Ger
many.
Witten arm's, September 13.—Dele
gates from England, Scotland and Ire
land have arrived to attend the celebra
tion of the guater centenary of Martin
Luther. The city is profusely decorat
ed. Crown Prince Frederick William
was received witji great enthusiasm.
Two thousand clergymen are here.
The Emperor has issued a -Cabinet
I order entrusting Crown I'rince Fred
| crick William the duty of representing
him at the Luther festival at Witten
| burg. The Emperor, as chief deposi
tary of the government of the Church
in his empire, expresses a feeling of
warm interest in the celebration, in
which the evangelical faith obtains full
expression.
The commemoration was a great
success. The number of visitors is es
timated at 50,000. They came princi
pally from Thnringa, Saxony and
Brandenburg. Delegates from Hun
, gary, Austria and Trance also took
j part in the celebration. After reading
the liturgy, Superintendent General
Schultz delivered the festival sermon,
taking his text from St. Mathew, chap
ter 21, verses 42 and 43.
A long procession marched to
Luther's house, where the Crown
Prince subsequently, in a large hall
which served formerly as Luther's
lecture room, declared Luther Hall open.
Silver Wedding.
On Friday, Sept. Tth, 1833, people
commenced coming in from all parts of
the country to the residence of Mr. and
Mrs. S. P. Eakin, Grant Farm, Butler
county, Pa. They came with baskets
full of the luxuries of life. Mr. and
Mrs. Eaken not having due notice of
this grand affair, appeared to be some
what surprised and gave way to the
visitors, who took possession of the
house, and at 1 p. M. dinner was in
readiness, continuing until 4 p. m.
During this time eighty-six friends of
the happy couple partook of the feast.
At the close of the repast a large num
ber of useful and valuable presents
were tendered the happy pair, accom
panied with the good wishes of the
many donors.— l'arkcr Pha;nix.

"No, it never amounted to an acute pain, but
continued to be a dull weary ache in the small
ol'mv back," writes Mr. James Thomas, of Xo.
59 Madison street, Memphis, Tenu. "This was
an old experience, and life became dull music.
I was tired all over, with pain in the lower
limbs, and a habit of lying awake of nights.
Recently I tried one of BKNSOX'S CAPCINE
POROIS PLASTERS and was decidedly re
lieved within twenty-four hours. It may have
been Providence that did the work, but 1 give
the credit to Benson's porous plasters." Mr.
Thomas'reverential idea does him credit, but
Providence works by agents, and among them
Benson's plaster ranks first as an external rem
edy. It acts quickly in relief and healing, and
renders life better worth living. Price 25 cents.
Look in the middle of the plaster for the word
CAPCINE. Ask your physicians about it.

G RAND RUS H.
The people of Butler county have been imposed on long enough with high prices, and with few exceptions they arc
going-to the
CHEAP BOOT and SHOE HOUSE

My goods were all bought direct from the manufacturer for cash by an experienced buyer aud I intend to sell them at such
iimmm, t« nrai
That will make my customers all happy and my competitors go mad with rage. They want me to maintain high
prices so we can all make
BIG MONEY,
But I tell them, NO, I can afford to sell goods on a VERY SMALL 9I4RCi«IIV because I am selling more
goods than anv other Shoe House in Butler county. So lam going to
CUT THE PRICES
And favor the people and do the trade. My Stock of Boots, Shoes and Rubbers is by far the largest that was ever
brought to Butler in one season, and I want to impress on the minds of the people that I will not be

But to the contrary will guarantee to save them from 15 to 25 per cent. On their Jioots and SIIOPS and give
them goods that will prove just as recommended. All I ask is to give me a call and it will be no trouble for me
to convince you that it is
