They do not take tbe oath ot offiea .till the first Monday of June. —There was a drunken row at the P. & W. depot Monday evening, and there has beea & row in town almost every night since the bare were opened, and if this thing con tinues we vill need a dozen policemen here before the year ends. —There Is a new announcement for Coun ty Commissioner this week, that of Mr. Phil ip Hilliard. of Hilliards Station, Washing ton township. Esq. Hilliard was a County Commissioner some thirty years ago, and he -write* us tbUhe will be unable to make a -canvass. - *ll —We are under obligations to the Mercer Dispatch and Republican, Grove City Tele j)/mne, Kittanning Republican, Petrolia Rec ■ord, Mlllerstown Herald, Bharpsburg Obser ver, Butler TVnuw.Zelienople News and perhaps to other papers whose notices escaped our eye, for complimentary reference to our efforts to improve -our paper. —The hotel keepers of this town have got ten up a "black-list" of all the men of known intemperate habits in the town, and also of those young men who are said to be noisy when under the influence of liquor, and are refusing to sell them. The list is ■aid to be headed by a shining light of the legal profession, with a celebrated "Doctor" for a good second. —This is Arbor Day, and each and every one of us should plant a tree. If the saying that "he who makes two blades of grass grow where but one grew before is a public bene factor" be true, then how much greater will 'be the beneficence if he who makes one tree grow where none grew before, particu larly if it be planted along the street or road and grows up to shade the tired traveller. If you can't plant your tree to-day do it to morrow, or as soon as you have time. —Mr. Will Stein, of the firm of L. Stein 4 Son, has just returned from his visit to the New York dry goods market where be pur chased a large stock of Spring and Summer goods of the latest patterns and fashions go ing. These goods are now arriyine and be ing opened, a fact which our laay readers ahoatd note. Read the new locals of this firu in thU weeks paper. —Hooie one asks,. Did you ever watch a baby as ite opens his beautiful eyes in the morning? Great heavens I Yes, at two o'clock A, M.. with the mercury at zero, and when with a garment to scant tor the occa sion tbe doting parent hunts for the pin that casues the trouble and finds that it's nothing but total depravity. Please don't sentimen talize on that subject; it will not bear tbe ■train. —The Kioq-Broeli weddinjr procession, consisting of four couplts And as many rigs, arrived in front of the Court Bouse from East Brady about half past ten of I**t Tues day morning. Here (he procession Lilted and the happy couple went in and secured tbeir license, and then it moved on to the residence of liev. who performed ithe ceremony. Tbe self-possession of the groom was noted by all. —Mr. Fylvanus Cooper, of Slipperyrock township, and Mr. Joseph K. Moore, of Grove City, both supplied our citizens this week with some of fie best of maple syrup. Mi. Cooper has had a camp on his farm for ■BMy years, and it is now almost the only carap in the county. Mr. Moore, formerly of this eounty, makes an excellent article ot •jrrup on his present farm near Grove City. They both visited our office on Wednesday last, and each left us two cans of their make of pure maple syrup. —With a knock-down on our streets or in our hotels' almost every night, men baing committed to jail every day for being drunk ttd disorderly, men beating their wives and faaalting ladies on our street*, men drunk on •our streets who were never before known to •drink, jurymen under the influence of liquor, and very old men druuk ou our streets, the results of license are apparent; the office of the District Attorney of Butler county be comes profitable, and oar justice.* and consta bles reap a rich harvest, but tha bills against the eounty will aggregate a large sum by the end of the year. The Democratic politicians of the county fully appreciate the signifi cance of the iftsuH of the late license court, the Butler am Millerstown Heralds defend the most efficient ally the Democratic party bn» ever had in this county, and com pare the women of the W. C. T. U. to cranks, fanatics and Ziegler now has a meaningless moUo at the head of bis paper.

From Pittsburg Telegraph of lota iast.l A curious and pleasant story is told of a prisoner in the cjuaty jiil goinj out with a detective, unearth ing a lot of silverware iu the woods near Butler and returning the same day. Some two mouths ago a man nam ed Hedricks broke into the house of Mr. C. T. Birney, a grocer at Taren tum, and carried off considerable sil verware which was treasured as the wtdding preheats of Mrs. B'.ruey. They were worth some urr or six hundred dollars, but to her they were much more valuable on account of the associations connected with them Her husband o&ered a handsome re ward, and officer J. J Finaey, of Hite S:ation, A. V. li. R , set about the work of secovery. After several week? of patient work he became satisfied that Hedricks, a black visaged, broad shouldered shaoibler, who had hovered arouud that country fo? 3) c tima.mast sure ly be the man, USlwr Finney locat ed him at Saksburg, arrested aud ra- | located bim ia our new jail Hed ricks acknowledged the theft but would not disclose t}j:j manner in which he disposed of ine stolen silver ware Yesterday he charged his mind, and in company with a Pitts burg ofiber left for Phillips City, in Butler county. There they tock a buggy and drove out among the oil wells and into the woods. Hedricks was not handcuffed, but foe kae# that the officer with him hid hii hand on a thumpinsr revolver all the time, and that he was a dead shot They came to a big rock half hidden by e< nie trees, and here Hedricks gave the signal to stop. Hedricks lost no time in pulling out the stolen silverware, piece by piece, uutii it was all in sight. For weeks it had been hidden in a crevice under the rock. Loading It into the buggy, the return journey was begun. It was accomplished without incident, and Hedricks was back in his cell be fore sunset that evening. New Policemen, Etc. At a meeting of the Town Coun cil Tuesday evening of this week, Ms. George Garuaar, a machinist who works at Kesselmen's, was ap pointed Chief of Police of Butler, with Mr. William O.to and Mr. An tony Allen as assistants, each to be paid #SO per month. Their duties are not jet defiued, but they are to include the lighting of tbe street lamps. Fifty dollars a month (or tbree men means SIBOO a year, which would be a pretty steep tax for the people of this towa to pay for the privilege of having licensed hotels in the towo, but the fiaea collected and the amount paid (or lighting the street lamps—if the contract with the com pany calls for their being turned out every morning—will reduce this, and it is expected that the hotel keepers will exercise a littio common sense in tin muter. Tue tax rate of tije town for street and general borough purposes was fixed at ten mills, a raise of one mill, which will bring in about SGOO. The Council ordered ti.it &q ordi- Daace be prepared forbidding the run ning of cows on our streets at auy time —excepting to take them to ana from thrir pasture fields. This will make a boom in pasture, and people who cannot get it on the hills and fields about town where there is a supply of pure water had better sell their cows. Pasturing your cow in a field through which a filthy drain runs is inviting disease iuto your family. The council also ordered that an ordinance be prepared taxing dogs and sluts, and the rate for dogs will probably lixed at sl, and for sluts s.'s. This is a very good idea. Three wide awake policemen ought to keep our town pretty quiet at night, and the tax collected from the owners of the dogs, will help piy tlja police men. The petition of the Shenango Gcs Co. to drill a well on a little lot in near frame buildings, was refused. —There has been a large change in the clothing business in this place during the p»st few years. The time was when only tha sharpest grades of goods were purchased and to get a suit that would fit you was about a u imposibility. Now this is all chang ed. The material used in the cloth ing is as good as the best and an or dinary well made man can get as good a fit as the average tailor would give him. Much of this improve ment in the quality and style of cloth ing is due to Mr. John N. Patterson He saw the necessity of the change and made it. Now one can go to his store and purchase a wedding suit good enough (or *U7 man to "stand up" in and it don't cost a suia'.J for tune, either. His clotbiug, from the best to the cheapest, is made up in the latest styles and it is impossible to tell, when worn whether it was "ready made" or "tailor made." These are facta which any one can ascertain by examining the immense stock of dotting always on hand at the One Price Olothjqg Store, No. 29, 8.

The note ! was presented for payment a few days since and instead of calling for it had been raised to almost S2OO i which Hilderbrandt was compelled to pay There is only one safe way to deal with traveling peddlers. If you 1 purchase of them pay the cash and take A receipt in full and under no consideration give a note or allow i them to go off the farm with your 1 name to either note, order or any other kind of paper. —A nice young schoolmistress of Cornellsvills had among her pupils a had boy, whom she attempted to pun ish She found he was too big for her, but her young man happening in before school was out, she asked his aid, and with it thrashed the boy Now the boy's pa threatens to sue the teacher's young man for assault , and battery. —The Saltsburg people have about concluded they are not on thegas belt A well some two miles above the town, was put down about 2,000 feet and no gas found. Last week it was abandoned and the tools taken away. Thus is another hope gone up the r'i ume. Fuiler Details of the Great Fires on the Prairies of Dakota. FARGO, DAK , April 19 As the details are more fully gath ered of the repeat prairie fires they prove to be more widespread aud de structive to property thaa earlier re ports indicated. la the region vjsjted tber** has not been such loss from this cause since the fall of 1879. The fires extended over wide dis tricts in a dozen or more counties from and in Central Dakota to Lincoln, in the extreme south, which are among the older and more thickly settled parts ,jf the Territory. The local pa pers have many columns of losses, comprising dwellings, barns, granar ies, hay-stacks, and in several instan ces towns and villages were only saved by the active efforts of the citi zens. No estimate can be given of the aggregate losses. Jn only two instances were persons fataiiy injur ed The regions that suffered from drought or fires last year have escap ed this spring, as there was little to feed san}e3, A heavy rain followed the fires. The Road Sold at Last. GREENVILLE, PA., April 19.—The Allegheny and Shenango Railroad was sold at puolto amotion at go, Pa., to-day by order of the United States Court, Major A. J. Penticost, of Allegheny, being the auctioneer, The property was purchased by Thomas P. Fowler, of New York, president of the "New york, Ontario and Western Railroad ana Receiver of the Shenango and Allegheny road; Frederick W VVhitridge, of Ne*H| York, and James J. Shryock, of Meadville, Pa., for the sum of $625,- 000, $50,000 being paid cash. The amount paid fur the property was the lowest for wbiph it goald be 30' d, that being the only bid made. There is considerable interest mani fested concerning the new organiza tion as to whether or not the princi pal office will remain here and the road remain under the present ir,aq agement, but it is generally believed that the reorganization will have but little effect upon local interests.
