.—The Jamestown, N. Y., paper* mention
weekly the arrival of couples from the west
ern counties of this State, to be married. It
is strange that people with any degree of pru
dence ami sense wonld go to expense and
trouble to avoid the excellent provisions of
the marriage laws of Pennsylvania, for the
loose and reckless habit of New York. The
registration of a marriage is of very great im
portance, aud cbiitiv to the immediate par
tie* to it. The benefit of it will extend to re
mote descendants. Kstates have been lost,
pension claims rejected, and many other dit-
Acuities have come from the want of proof of
a marriage. It iR seldom that any good
comes from a mnrriage that the parties would
not wish recorded. — Meadvillt Guzetlf.

The Directors 1 Convention.
County Superintendent Russell
called the convention of School Direc
tors to order in the larpre court room
at 1:10 p M , of last Tuesday, and
suggested that the election ot a 1 resi
dent of the convention was the first
thin? in order. Somebody nominat
ed Rev J H. Marshall of Concord
for President, and the motion being
seconded, was unanimously adopted.
Rev. Marshall stepped to the front,
said he was not very well posted In
parliamentary rules but would do the
best be could, thanked the conven
tion, and called for nominations for
Secretarv of ths convention. Mr. lv
E. Maurhoflf of Saxonburg was nom
inated and unanimously elected Sec
retarv. Dr. of Mi Hereto wn, Kstj
John Shaffer of Zelienople, Dr. Wm,
Irvine of Evans City, tnd Dr. Bard
of Centreville were elected Tellers -
the idea seeming to be to have one
Teller for each candidate. President
Marshall now suggested that the pro
ceedings be opeued with prayer, and
called upon Rev. McFarlaud, of Fair
view who led in asking the Divine
blessing.
Sup't Russell here announced
that he had school laws, and school
reports for 1886 for all who wished
them, and these were distribut
ed. The roll of the Directors of the
countv was then called and 2.i2 an
swered to their names. President
Marshall suggested that a Recording
Secretarv was needed, for which posi
tion Frank Critcblow of Prospect,
and 11. J. Iloyt of Miilerstown were
nominated, bat Mr. Iloyt declined,
and Mr. Critehlow was elected by ac
clamation. A motion to aguiu call
the roll was lost, and a motion to pro
ceed to the nomination of candidates
carried.
Mr. A J Harper of Harmony,
nominated Joun C. 'iiostpaap; Mr.
Joseph Tbomaf, Jr. of Karus City,
nominated W. G. RufScli; Dr. King
of Saxonburg, nominated John Gol
den; and Rev. McFarland nominated
J. L Snyder.
Mr. George Graham called for the
credentials of the candidates, and Mr.
JouatLan L. Snyder j;av9 iri his
diploma from Wilmington College,
Mr. John C. Tinstman his from Alle
gheny College, Mr. John Golden his
permanent certificate from State Sup t
Higbee, and Mr. W. G. Russell bis
permanent certificate from State Sup't
Wickersbam. These were received
by the convention and accepted
4 jpotion was then made and sec
onded that all spectators be request
ed to leave the room This brought
on a debate that participated in by a
dozen members, and created some con
fusion, but it was finally carried, and
the majority of the spectators, not in
cluding the I'ress who were excepted,
left the room.
Mr. Reed of Mercer twp., was elect
ed door-keeper, and Mr. Brown, the
janitor, locked the door A motion
to vote by townships was lost. A
piotion to proceed to first ballot car
ried, with the following re§nlt.: Rus
sell 04, Snyder 63, Tinstman Gl, and
Golden 44.
Several Directors wished to leave
the room after the ballot, but when
thoy were iaforrped that there were
both water and other conveniences in
the adjoiniug rooma, but few did so,
and of those who persisted in going
out, bat ope —a Director from Clear
field twp—showed the eu«uts of bis
practice at the bar, when he returned.
A motion to proceed to second bal
lot carried with the following result:
Snyder d l *, Russell Tinstman 62,
and Golden 32. After this ballot
there was much confusion and talk,
and a motion to drop the lowest can
didate after each ballot was lost.
A motion to proceed to a third bal
lot was carried witb the following re
sult: Snyder 79, Tinstman 04, ltus
sell 58, and Golden 29.
It was getting late and the conven
tion vras becoming restive, and a mo
tion to immediately pvoseed to the
fourth ballot carried, and resulted as
follow: Snyder 127, Tinstmau 01,
Russell 22 and Golden 15.
Thia ejected Snyder by a majority
of 29 over all, and immediately that
the result was known the convention
surged toward the door with one ac
cord, but the President ordered the
door to be locked, called for order and
stated that there was other business
on hands.
Qeorge Graham moved that the
salary of the Superintendent be u«ed
at an even SI2OO. The law of 'OB
fixes the salary at $4 50 for each
school in the county, which—includ
ing the Butler borough schools—
made the salary a little over
but with the Butler schools out as
they now are, the salary will be a lit
tle less than that omount, and Gra
ham's motion was to make the bal
ance jip from the general appropria
tion from the state to the county, it
was discussed at length and lost.
The committee appointed by the last
convention to examine the different
text books now published, and report
those which, in their judgment, would
be the best Bulled for general use all
over the connty, then made their re
port through their Chairman Dr. Ir
vine, as follows: Modern series of
Readers and Spellers, Swinton's Geo
graphy, Barnes' Ilistory, Reed »fc
Rellogg's Grammar. Qof['s Arith
metic, Brooks' New Normal Mental-
Arithmetic, Hunt's Physiology.
A motion to adjourn then prevail
ed, the Directors again moved toward
the door, and the Convention of 1887,
was a tbjng of the past.
A notice of Mr. Snyder the Super
intendent-elect will be found in an
other plage. Men who are well ac
quainted with him aro very decided
in their opinion of his character, his
ability and his education, and it was
this decided opinion of him that elect
ed him—his friends stuck to him, and
by their steadfastness secured him
the votes of the undecided members
of the convention.
Sqp't ftj&dc a gallant light
for a second term, and it was easily
seen that there was a general feeling
for him in the convention, as by com
mon consent he has madp a good
and faithful Coqnty Superintendent
and the only thing that defeated him
was the sentiment against a secoud
term, and in favor of passing the of
fice around.

Pursuant to the call published in
the butler papers, the school direct
ors of Butler met in convention at the
Public School building on JelFerson
street last Tuesday evening, and or
ganized by electing Lev. McQuistion,
tesq., President, end JT. M- Eastman,

An Interesting Suit.
The case of Patrick Gardner, and
others, heirs at law of .James Gard
ner, deceased, vs. Thos. McAuallen
and Patton Bell, was taken u|> before
Judge McMichael last Thursday
morning. The suit was for the pos
session of a 100 acre tract in Cherry
aud Washington township, which
originally was part of a tract describ
ed in Certificate No. 15, of the Sec
ond Donation district, aud drawn by
lot by Thos. Church, a Major in the
Revolutionary war, and granted to
him for services to his country. In
those days there were no means here
of recording patents, and the certifi
cate aud draft completed title. Church
sold to a man named Campbell, and
Campbell sold this piece to James
Gardner, who settled on the tract and
lived on it till 1532, when he was
caught in a snow storm in the woods,
frozen to death and covered with
snow, and his body was not recover
ed till the following spring. His
widow and eight children continued
to live on the place till 1843, when
the widow died, the children scatter
ed, and Bernard McAnallen, an uncle
of the children, went to live on the
place on a verbal agreement to pay
the taxes and improve it. He died
in 1868, leaving two children, a son,
Thos. McAnallen, and a daughter,
who married Patton Bell, and they
continued to live on the place. The
Gardner children were scattered aud
made no effort at that time to recover
the place. There were seven boys,
and one girl who married a man nam
ed Steel of Pittsburg, and they final
ly got together and brought suit.
The case came up on Thursday and
continued till Tuesday, when the
judge directed the jury to find for six
of the plaintiffs for six eighths of the
land, and for the defendants two
eighths—two of the children of
James Gardner having acknowledged
title in McAnallen. There were
originally but eight townships in this
county, and this tract, at that time,
was partly in Parker and partly
in Slipperyrock. Some changes wtre
made in the townships as the co unty
grew in population, bijt it was not
uulil 1854 that the thrity-three town
ships were arranged as they now are.
During the trial of this case the tax du
plicates of Cherry, Washington, Parker
and Slipperyrock townships from the
beginning, were brought into conrt
and examined, as part of the defense
was a tax title, but it was shown
that the land had been assessed in
both townships that
and Slipperyrock bad been
paid for in one of them.
