Notice* of Applications for charted. New local notices. LOCAL AND GENERAL. The full ripe grain is bend'ng In waves of golden light; The new-mown hay is sending Its sweets upon the night; The breeze is softly sighing, To cool the parched flowers; The rain, to see them dying, Weeps forth it* geutle showers. —Last Saturday was the longest day of the year. —F>q. Pringle has sold his store to Mr. McFadden. —The first volume of Blaiu's book is DOW being delivered to subscribers here. —Read John Bickel's mid-summer adver tisement. He offers some great bargains to make room for his Fall stock. —While a class was reciting in the German Lutheran school, of this town, last Monday morning, three boys fainted from the excessive heat. —There is not a licensed hotel in Forest county. It is now one of the few genuine tem perance counties of the State. —The ha-vest is ripening, and the imple ment men are on the qui vive for machinery purchasers. Prices are being cut. —The notice of the Comstock Light and Heat Co., of their intention to apply for a charter, is of interest to the citizens of Alle gheny township. —Of sixty-three county superintendents of school chosen in this State last month there are 29 Democrats, 33 Republican! and Miss Anna Buck bee, of Potter county. —Banged girls are now the chief consumers of flax seed. They stew it gently and use the jelly to stiffen the bangs and make 'em stay where they're put. —No girl is successful with a hammock until she can get in and out of the blamed thing without everybody finding out whether the stripes on her stockings run 'round and 'round or up and down. —A fashionable exchange says; "Silver collars for pet dogs are inscribed; 'l'm Miss Daisv Jones'dog, whofce dog are you." Must be rather embarassing when a dude catches the dog and reads the inscription?" —P. W. Ixiwry, Esq., took his Sunday School class up to the Slippery rock, via the 8. AA. It. R., last Friday. The boys took their lunch baskets aud fishing tackle with them and greatly enjoyed themselves. —The family of Milton Koon, of Worth township, Mercer county, were poisoned a couple of weeks since by eating parsnips. Mrs. Koon died a few day after, and her husband is yet in a critical condition. —The Media American boasts of a "standing population of 2200" in that borough. We can not boast of so large a standing population in our borough, but when it comes to the sitting down population we will show up figures with any town of its size. —Neshannock township, Lawrence county is trying to increase the efficiency of its schools by employing better teachers, and to get better teachers is offering better pay, raising the sal aries one-third —from S3O to S4O per month. Its action might be commended to the consider ation of other districts. —Walla Walla, W. T., has an ordinance l strictly jnforced, prohibiting any boy or gir under fourteen years of age being out alone after dark. That is a good example for other towns to follow. In the good old days the knee strap and the hickory gad saved the ne cessity tor any such ordinance. —Mr. Charles R. Barchfleld, representing the firm of McWhinney A Co., of Pittsburgh, visited our town on business last week. Sev eral years have passed since Charley's last visit to the town, and his many friends here were glad to see him and to again take him by the hand. —The sparrows have attacked thn bees. They eat the heads but take care to leave the bodies alone. It is about time this pest of a bird was banished from our midst. They drive all the song birds away and do nothing but breed, and fight among themselves. —Most of the Pennsylvania delegates to the Democratic Convention will reach Chicago by jSuiplay evening, July tRh. The delegation from this State will have their headquarters at the Grand Pacific Hotel. The Convention will be composed of 802 delegates, exclusive of the territories. Under the two-thirds rule, 535 votes will be necessary to make a nomination. —An exchanges says: ''Milk in the manufac ture of ice cream is first boiled and afterwards partly congealed. In boiling a lacteal acid of bactesiic is set free that, uniting with hypo sulphide of buteric oxide, again solidifies as a bi-sulpbide of stumakake in the congealing. This, when taken into the system, produces peritonital cramps, frequently ending fatally." —Cut this out and show it to your girl. —The Academy Commencement at Prospect last Friday was a great success. A large crowd usembled in the grove and all seemed to enjoy themselves. Col. Bain lectured in the U. P. Church that evening. The room was crowded and the recipU amounted to $103.50. For the term just eyded the Academy had 116 scholars enrolled. —A dispatch from Oil City, dated last Fri day, stated that Calvia N. Payne, one of the heaviest dealers in the Oil Kxchange ; laid down that day. lie at one time was considered one of the wealthiest men in the business, but has gradually been making lueses. The Clear ing House showed a difference of $1,500 against him, which he was unable to meet. —Two young men of Concord township, late ly engaged in a whip contest to satisfy them selves of their staying qualities. Each procur ed qii favorite wUaleooije, toed the scratch and dusted each other's breeches in fine style, fcuriie twenty-five cuts were delivered, when Loth retired, one exclaiming, "I've got the li«st whip, and don't you forgot it." r-f)np of our Democratic oonteuiporarles likens the adoption of the popular vote hystem and the discarding of the delegate system of making nominations, by their party in the county, to a lot of dancing devils, a Chinaman, some dressed up fowls, a dog anil a monkey. If the change is going to have such a terrible effect on their paity, it should be reconsidered. —lt doesn't pay to try to beat the printer out of a few dollars. A former stockholder in the defunct. Krie bank, who resides in Girard. f et|rcd from "iP hank several yearu ago and 4flyed three dollars by not publishing tho fact of his retiring. He will now be compelled to pay his share of the loss, which it is estimated will take every dollar that he is worth. There are several others in the same boat. —A petition was recently circulated in the Warren oil exchange, for the purpose of show ing how many men sign petitions without reading them. It was a petition to Congress ended with im appeal to alloy tl.c „igii to'iinmudia'-ly lynch a certain member of the exchange. The best part of the joke was that the member who was to be lynched signed it iu good faith, as a memorial to Congress. —The County Commissioners have not yet decided upon tue plans for a new Court House. They arc waiting for Mr. Bailey to complete liis perspectives, when they will make their decision and soon after be ready to let con trite. Irt answer to an inquiry regarding their authority to bqilcl, tl}eir attorney lias Written a lengthy opinion stating that he is clear that they have the authority and that it is their duty to proceed as soon an they oou veulently can. —The projectors of the gas well feel justified by what subscriptions they have received aud and by what leases they have obtained, iu going ahead and putting down the well. They will put it down at a point where they are sure of obtaining gas, even though that point be some distance from the town and from the railroads, as piping the gas a mile or two wonld be nothing for an extensive manufac turer. ' ' ; - ' • ' • •- ■ —On Saturday last urude oil was worth but from o0 to q9 cents a barrel, the lowest price It has reached since Jiine,'B2, and one to which {t haj fallen but three times tu jjo ywa-s. Yesterday the market opened at 59 cents, over 20 cents below the cost of production, which may l»e fairly estimated at 80 cents a barrel. This low ma-ket is the result of a disordered stock market iu New York, fears of a run on the banks there, and the failure of some of the heayy stock dealers. The Standard Oil Com pany is reported to be in close quarters but the report is uot generally credited. "TTwisi^' rC 'i' le , Court of I'"liaua, in a re- C€Ut .™ n, . deC > res that the »eg*l name oi a per» > s tsofone Christian name and sur rLrS°» e n!a y have as many middle "f""*.. »„?'!

Sa'ni'l. vi': ft Monday afternoon, one of them ■track >s loot against sonle window glass im beded iu tlie ground and received a large and painful wound one that had to he probed and sewed up, and which will keen him off his leet lor some week. —There is a young man in Butler who keeps such lute hours at night that a few poetic young hwies put their heads together aud got up the following: 1 winkle, twinkle, little star, How we wonder where you are, \\ uuder.ng all the town about, Does jr«u r mother know you're out? *beat harvest is completed in the SouUieia states and is cow in progress in Missouri and southern Illinois. Referring to this the Cleveland Leader says that nothing is better calculated to impress one with the mag nitude of the I nitcd States aud its tremendous resources than the stately march of the wheat harvest from Georgia aud Texas to Dakota and Minnesota. Already the millsof some portions of the South are grinding new wheat, and the reapers are busy iu Kentucky and Southern Illinois, but it will be August before the grain of the lied River Valley is cut. It is a great country whose wheat harvest lasts more than two mouths. —Primmer Lesson for Giddy Girls:—Do you see this Girl, my Child? Yes, I see her often. V here is the going? She is now on her way to the Postoffice. And where will she go then? She wi:l go to the train to *ee the Drummers and the Other nice Fellows who cuiue to our town. And then Where? The she will go to the Postoffiee again. But Does She not go Home.' Oh, no, she has not Time to < a » Home. She has to Watch the I'ostclhce and the Trains, you know, aud Her Mother Attends to the Home Duties. The above lrom an exchange is pretty good, and the feilow who got it up should wiite another for giddy boys. —Mr. J. B. Hill, the agent of the Pittsburgh Fire Arms Co., for the Harden Hand Grenade Fire Extinguisher, made some satisfactory ex periments on our streets a few evenings since. Some store-boxes were piled up, saturated with petroleum, and then set on fire, and after they were completely enveloped in fl; mes, a pint bott'e of the stuff thrown iu among the boxes with enough force to break it iustantlv put out the fire. The bottles contain an acid which, coming in contact with heat generates a gas which extinguishes all flames. It is a wonderful inventiou and may become very popular. —Tramps are getting numerous all over the country, and reports of robberies and other crimes directly tracable to them are becoming frequent. So far our community hps escaped, but no person living at a distance from neigh bore should leave his family unprotected, day or night. A trusty dog is some protection, but a loaded gun or revolver in the hands of a woman or girl who lrnows how to use it, and will not hesitate to do so if occasion demands, is a safeguard which even the most villianous tram]> can be made to respect. Farm bells, if located where they can be called into use, will serve to drive off most tramps, yet a gun is the safest. —Nearly two years ago a gang of burglars were captured and lodged iu jail at Me.cer for depredations committea in that county. They afterwards managed to break jail and make good their escape. About two months ago Sher.ff Kile, of Mercer, was notified of the ar rest at Lawrence, Mass., of two men suspected of being burglars, aud who were supposed to belong to the gang above mentioned. Their photographs were sent to Mercer aud were ?t once recognized a.s being Harry Brown, nick named the "old man," and Ed. A. Lane, nick named "the slek man." They were tried last week at Lawrence on the charge of having burglars' implemeuts in their possession and were each sentenced to ten years iu the peni tentiary. Court News.

It is over thirty years since the good old cus tom of celebrating the natal di>v of the country has fallen into dis.ise, but it is the deteraiina tion of the jieople, that this year, the eust-m shall be revived. I»utl«*r. July Fomlli. issl. It is expected to have a grand demonstration iu honor of one —to-day the freest and grandest Na'iou of the world. Let not the trials of our forefathers be forgotten, let it not be said i.i history that the children of those who treed them hpve forgot.en their forelathers or re*us ed to cherish tneir memory. i;;«. I.et the glorious day not perish from the memory of the present or future generation. On July 4," of that year there rang out to the world t':e glad cry of Freedom. IA-1 US all turn out to celebrate the natal day of Independence, The desire 01 the com mi.'tee i having the matter 111 charge is that ever/ town- • snip and borough iu the county shall *-end a delegation, to participate in this grand celebra- : tion. Let the old und young, men and boys, j women aud children turn cut. There will be j both Brass aud Martial Hands in attendance to j discourse music. National sougs will be sung I by di2'ereut glee clubs. A (iIJAXD I'AUAIti: Will take place at 10 A. M., or as soon as all the j delegations thrive from the townships and bor- j oi'giis. There will also be a grand Fantastic i Parade on horseback by some of the young j Americans, ana present preparations insure ,t a success. .\ wagon containing young g.rls, J representing every State, and bearing the j badge of each will be oue of the attractions. Au invitation is extended to all. Let us re vive the good old custom of celebraiing the np..al dry of our country. Come in wagon", carriages and by railroad. There will also be as one interest.ng partol the program, the iiaiade in ihe general process ion of the Sullivan Guards, followed by ttie various civic organizations of Butler,and o'hers wno wish to come; also, the First and Seeond Ward Hose Companies—the carriages drawn by horses, the members following on foot; and af.er these citizens iu carriages, on horseback and on loot. It Is Kequested That as there are 365 days .n the year to devote toother things, that politics and everything else shall be left out for one day and all irre spective of political cr church nreterencesshaU join in the public celebration ot the Ith of J uiy, 1884. It is due ix> the memory of the fathers who foaght for oi'r liberties, as well as to inculcate in the hearts of our cniidren that this great day should be remembered: the lirst blood ol Le-C --iugion is as dear to us to-day as to the man who shed it in defense of his,future co jutry. He lit tle dreamed that the bullet which hit hiui'caused The Declaration oi Independence, and that the inspiration of that document made us free; Then come one and all: Come, as the waves come; When navies ore stranded; Come, as the winds come, When forests are rendetl, And join in a good olu Fourth ot duly, which your fathers used to have in the days tone by. After the procession is over there will be all kinds of amusements at the Fair Grounds, including horse racing, balloon ascensions, also a grand display of lire-works and all kinds of entertainments, refreshments, dancing. Music furnished by brass and string bands, now eugaged, from home and abroad. t l.OiiAli II AM.. will be open for dancing all afternoon and even ing. The best of order will be maintained and all ca.i enjoy themselves. There will be no pains spared on the part of the management to see that every thing is done in good order. For special items see issued, in regard to rac'ng and other amasements. But once again we say to all, let them enjoy as youths—as their fathers did before—a glori ous 4th of July celebration.
