—One day last week, a report came to
town, that there were two dead dogs in the

this town is very unsatisfactory, but it is a
monopoly and we can't help ourselves.

and Fos Wick, the driver, was thrown out in
front of another horse named Bracelet, who
saved Wick's life by springing over him like
a deer. Another man drove the horse during

tain wm a "ringer."

afternoon of the Fourth. An unusual num
ber of men were intoxicated on our streets,
there was considerable quarrelling, aud ar
rests were made until the lock-up was full,
after which a stable was used for that pur
pose. The town lock-up Is said to be a very
undesirable slopping place after a number of
drunken men have been in it over night.
The unusual number of drunken men was, of
eourae, due the unusual number of people in
town, and partly perhaps to the fact that the
■nppiy of beer ran out the previous Saturday
night, and was not replenished till late Mon
day morning, thereby inducing imbibers ol
that named beverage to partake of whisky.
Taking It for granted that there is some truth
in the statements to that effeot, they will b«
worth considering by temperanoe people i!
total prohibition is voted down in this State
A modified amendment, prohibiting the sal«
of distilled liquors as a beverage, and provid
ing for an official inspection of all fermented
or brewed liquors, might oarrv where total
prohibition would not. We believe that it ii
the whiskey that ia doing the greatest dam
age now, though the beer of the preaent da;
ia said to increase, instead of allaying, thirst

Birthday No. 111.
The genera! move throughout the
country for an old fashioned Fourth of
July culminated very successfully on
Monday of last wet k.
The great bald headed American
Eagle was one hundred and eleven
years old that day, aud promptly
after the bell .-"ruck twelve, Stiuday
night, the boys of Butler proceeded
to "raise sheol" to the best of their
ability. The fire belis set forth their
alarms, all the church belis were toll
ed, numerous fireworks were explod
ed, dynamite cartridges were explod
ed on the surrounding hills and shook
the town, the brass bands paraded the
streets, and nature added to the gen
eral din with a thunder slorm and
short shower.
Next morning our streets were
crowded, the town was well decorat
ed, the parade was the largest and
most creditable we have ever had
Bowser's speech was patriotic and en
thusiastic, the picnic was well attend
ed, and the public and private dis
play of fire works were the grandest
and most beautiful ever seen here,
There was a glorious spirit of pa
triotism abroad in the iaud—the spir
it of 177 C—which has filtered through
the veins of eyery American citizen,
and made them as independent of for
tune as our forefathers declared them
selves of Great Britain.
