Choral Union Concert.
The programme of the Concert of
Tuesday evening next, the 11'h inst.,
is an admirable one. Among the
choruses is that patriotic part song
by Brinley Richards, "Let the Hills'
and Vales resound" and Gonoud's
•'Soldier's Chorus" from theOp ra
of "Faust," as well a3 others of differ
ent charactar but equal excellence.
The Bind is to play a good selec
tion th.it includes Wagner's March
in "Tunnhtvuser" and Romberg's Joy
Symphony. In these and the other
work of the band as evidenced at re
hearsals, the improvement made is
creditable to it, and its instructor, Mr.
Lamb.
Among the songs will bo found
"The Kiss", 'll Bacio" by Arditi,
and that supremely charming song of
Shakespeare's with Bishop's music
"Bid me discourse,"
Tnis is only an indication of the
treat iu store for the many lovers of
music in Butler, and from ail appear
ances the good quality of these con
certs will make them the place where
Society's members are iu the future
to be found on each recurriug oc
casion.
No doubt Mr. Limb's venture will
be appreciated.

At 10 o'clock, when ascending a
hill beyond Sandy creek, he wn3 met
in a lonely spjt by four men. Two
seized the bridle of his horse on each
side, and at the same in3taut two oth

head on either side. Kilgoie obeyed
their order to dismount They reliev

One of the very latest jokes of the
funny lightning rod fellows was play
ed on farmer Schmautz. down in Hea
ver county. The other day two men
stopped at his house and told him
they would like to test his ligbtning
rod. He permitted them to do so,
and they pronounced it "no good."
They said they wanted to advertise
their rod in that sectiou and would
put one up for him free of charge if
he would pay for the post that went
into the ground. He agreed aud sig
ned what he supposed was au agree
ment to that effect. Next morning
bright and early the men were on
hand, tore dowu the old rod and put
up a new one Last Friday he dis
covered rather unpleasantly that he
had signed a note for $207 aud that
his visitors Lad discounted it at bank.

Jonathan Andorton, the Beaver
Falls brewer, prides himself oa being
a sue jssful dreamer. He dreamed
iu ISBO that Garfield would be nomi
nated at Chicago, and he was. About
a year ago, he drearred that his brew
ery was on fire, and. dressing himself
hastily, he found that it was to be
sure. A week or two before the late
Chicago Convention, he dreamed
three times in succession, that Mc-
Kinley, of Ohio, would be the nomi
nee of that body; and it is said that
he bet his money quite freely that
such would be the case. If the "Lit
tle Napoleon" had but stayed in
Washington, talkiug tarill', instead of
going as delegate to tied
hand and foot iu the interest of Mr.
Sherman, it is barely possible that
Mr. A's dream record would not have
been broken.
The four-year old son of Joel Horn,
of near Beallsville, Washington Co ,
got in front of his father's reaper and
his legs were so badly mangled that
amputation was necessary.
One of the swans in the Allegheny
Parks had five eggs in her nest; but
according to the custom prevailing
among swans, not to set on anything
but pairs, she shoved one egg out of
the nest and then brota it all to
pieces. She then hatched out two
swans and killed one of them aud is
contentedly takiug care of the other.
Jennie, a two-year-old daughter of
John Badger, of Mercer Co., fell into
a pen containing a savage sow with a
litter of pigs, oa Sunday, and before
taken out was badly bitten by the en

moned.
John S. Ever hart, father of I >dn I
Ever hart, who is uow iu jail for the
murder of his stop mother, of which
there has been so much said, and also
husband of one of the murdered wom
en, was arrested and placed in jail at
Clarion, last Tuesday, as an accesso
ry before the crime. The tirno of his
hearing has not been decided as yet.
The officers claim to have strong evi
dence against all the accused.
A sad accident happened to a pic
nic party near Youngstown on the
4th. Several families living at lias
ellon went into a ravine near there to
find shade and recreation. A heavy
btorm coming up they took refuge
under a ledge of rocks in the dry bad
of a small stream known as Dry lluu.
Presently a torrent came rushing
down. James Davev, with his son,
aged 4 years, in a child's wagon,
started to cross the stream. The wa
ter was speedily up to his waist,
however, and the wagon was wrench
ed from his hand. The child was
tumbled out and borne out in the riv
er and drowned Divey saved him
self with difficulty. Two women,
one the mother of the drowued child,
and two children still clung to pro
jecting roots and ledges of rock. They
were rescued by means of ropes and
a ladder after their lives had been
endangered for an hour.
Swindlers Here.
Six swindlers of the Bohemian
oats variety struck Butler last Satur
day, and engaged rooms here. What
thiir game is, or will be, this time
we do not know, but we do know
that the pith and point of all their
games, is to get the signatures of re
sponsible parties—be it to notes,
agreements, receipts or what not —all
of which are changed into notes for
large sums, and sold to innoceDt (?)
third parties, who proceed to collect
them after the swindlers have left for
parts unknown.
If the note is in the usuul form and
does not call for notice to tha maker
of its being transfered, the holder is
presumed to bo an innocent third
party, no matter what he paid for the
note or though the price was so ridic
ulously small as to excite the suspic
ion of anybody.
The old English law regarded a
note with a genuine signature, to be
apiece of commercial paper, the same
as a bank bill, and though these cou
| tiuual swindling operations have
i caused our Courts hedge a little on
this rule, the general idea is yet iu
; force hero, hence we warn all our
readers to sign their names to no pa
pers whatever presented by strangers.

A Summer Idyl.
Our society reporter is a great n a i
; for picnics. His devotion to tii.-rn
began to excite our curiosity, not to
1 say our admiration, several years ago.
lie ii quite a connoit-scur in pieuio
and Bays the great event in picnic
circles each year is the Clerk's.
As Usual, he attended the C:h
which happened on Tuesday this
year. TLe next day at half-past one
our society man came into the o fibre
changed—greatly changed, lie louk
ed much as if hi? bed on the prec-L- i -
ing night had becu the top rail of a
country fence. A wild look about
the eyes ltd us to fear he had com
mitted some awful crime. "I'm
never going to another picnic," he
broke in cn us.
We were too much astonished to
be glad, and a.-ked him in a perfectly
calm way whether he had enjoyed
the picnic, or not.
"Enjoy it," said he, "why: I had
a splendid time. Music, dancing,
boating, fair ladies. Grand time.
But I'll never go to another. I
couidn't. Those yellow bangs, the
hosiery and those bustles would float,
b fore my eyes if I should attempt to
dance, and th; babies would yell J in
my ear so loudly that I could not
hear the band. The beer bottles
stuck over with hair-pins would haunt
my vision, and over all would float
that petticoat."
We cooled him off a little, and put
his head in a small chase to keep it
from bursting, and got the following
story from him:
The picnic went aiong swimmingly i
till the last hour. Our man was !
greatly infatuated with a beautiful
blonde, who bad the most ravishing j
eyes and bangs. The couple stuck'
together from early frill late, and were :
only parted by the excitement atten- 1
dant on the starting of the train for j
home.
The reporter fearing t hat she would ;
be left on t'ue ground, began a search ;
tor her, and missed the train, and
consequently had to pass the night
curled up on one of the seats in the j
dancing hall. In the early morning j
he was awakened by the shouts of 1
boys, who came, as they said, "ter '
hunt thinars." The society man went ;
over to tbeir "find," looked through
the pile, gave a gasp, and fainted, j
An inventory taken of the things j
found showed them to be:
Two baby carriages.
Two negro babies.
Ten beer bottles (empty.)
Five thousand hairpins.
One dozen of false bangs (li rlit.)
One-hail'dozen false bangs (dark.)
Sixteen hustles.
Four pairs red garters.
One pair silk stockings.
One tm baud stove.
Dozen pairs cotton hose.
Twenty pairs slippers. '
Tweniy stray dogs.
One petticoat.
Package of lore letters.
One hot sausage eau.
Four pi.itols.
Tvventy penknives.
Fifty-seven novels.
One Bible.
An easily recognized blonde bang,
reeking with stale beer, completed
the work on our reporter.
We have a society reporter to dis
pose of. A nply at once.
A Railroad Case.
A dispatch from Mercer' dated last
Friday said: Quiucy Gorden, master
iu the equity e<ise of the Fidelity
Trust and Safe Deposit Compauy of
Philadelphia against the We3t Penn
& Shenango connecting road,between
llilliards and Butler, and W. VV.
Reed, contractor, of Erie, filed a re
port this week Objections were
raised by both parties co the suit, and
the case was argued yesterday before
Judge Mchard by J. ltoss Thompson
and Judge John Vincent, of Erie, lor
one side, and John McCieave, Balti
more & Ohio solicitor, for the other:
The plaintiff has a claim of S4OO,
000 against the road and brought suit
in the United States Court before
Judge Achison for tho sale of the
property. Before proceeding the
Judge ordered the case to be referred
to the Mercer County Court to decide
whether the Fidelity's claim of near
ly half a million or Reed's claim of
$85,000 should take precedence-
Judge Mehard reserved his decision.
A Strong Endorsement.
A letter from Capt A. D Wright,
Sup't of the Soldiers Orphans Home
Mauslield, Tioga Co., Pa., July 3rd,
1888.
Messrs. Shira, Shir a <k Hays)
GENTLEMEN —I take pleasure iu re
porting to you that the two Allen
Washing Machines purchased from
you about three months ago, have
proven a perfect success. They
wash everythiug for our family of
over 200 from a boys collar to a pair
of socks. We do not use a wash
board in the institution. It has ef
fected a saving of s<loo per year, less
the price of the soap. Before getting
these machines, we could not do our
washing in the institution. Now our
small boys, from 10 to 15 years of
aye do it, causing 11s no trouble or
worry Our wa.ibiug has never been
so weli done.
This machine, intelligently used,
thoroughly cleanses clothes no mat
ter how dirty they are As far as my
experience extends there is no wash
ing machine made to compare with
it. This is the universal verdict of
all the people in the institution par
ticularly the women, who are the
most enthusiastic.
I have no hesitation in recommen
ding it to institutions similar to this
or to private families. One of the
principal features in its favor is, that
there is absolutely no wear on the
clothing. I consider the results we
have accomplished the more remark
able from the fact that the water we
use is hard, and that we uso no prep
aration for softening the water, or to
assist in washing.
This perfect simplicity of the ma
chine cannot lie appreciated without
seeing it in operation. We have al
ready done as much washing in our
machines as a family of 5 persons
would require to do iu 10 years and
there is no appreciable wear as yet.
1 think it would be sale to say that
one machine would last a family for a
generation. Very truly yours.
