' —At the congregational meeting of the English LutheranJJhurch of Butler last Sun- ' day, the resignation of Rev, D. Luther Roth ( was accepted, and Rev. George E. Tit/.el was elected pastor. Rev. RoHl has done re markably well in Bntler, and leaves for Al- ' bany only because he believes there is a ] greater field of usefulness there" The Luth- ( erau services and preaching ia that section have heretofore been entirely in the German ' language. A large number of church menj- 1 bers want to change this, aud selected Rev. | Roth to make the break, and he deems it his duty to accept the task. Rev. Titzel, the ' new pastor, is at present in charge of the E. I L. Church at Parker, Pa. He is a young | man of fine address and education, is well , spoken of and comes highly recommended. ' "■ 1 Plate Glass Improvements. i A meeting of the stockholders of the Plate Glass Works was held at 1 the works, on Tuesday, for the pur pose of considering the proposed im provements, and it was decided ,to adopt the new, patent, oven and build some of them, and also to run a six inch line of pipe to the gas well on \ the George Frederick farm in Summit , Twp , which the company has pur chased. These with the new furnaces and new buildings now in progress will cost the company from fifty to sixty thousand dollars. Mr. 11. J.

This cultivation of water lilies is something new in Butler,and they require more care, trouble aud expense than land flowers, but a lover of the beautiful in nature is well repaid by the result. Council Meeting. At the meeting of the Council Tuesday evening the resignation of Mr, John McQ. Smith was accepted as Street Commissioner and the Street Committee authorized to em ploy another.

What that railroad survey through the northern part of Butler means is yet a mystery. 11. P. Scott, Esq asserts positively that neither the P. &W. nor the Shenango companies bad anything to do with it. Mr. Green, the P. R. 11. ageut here knew nothing of it, and Mr. Chas.

Iman well on the Isaac Andrew farm in Penn Twp , was also completed and is reported to be dry. Butchers No. 2 ia tho Bakerstown field is dry, and 13 new wells are drilling in that field.

Coalstalk No. 3 on tho Whitmire farm is doing 75 barrels a day, and is the beßt well in that field. Father (.Jriilter & Co. got a good well on tho Hagerty farm in Donegal Twp., said to be doing 100 barrels. The Hospital Matter. The committee appointed to look up a site for the proposed Miners' Hospital have already secured the re fusal of several eligible locations, and feel confident of the Hospital being located here. Grove City is the only other town that will probably come into compe tition with u?, and Butler has every advantage over it as regards gas and j water, and railroad communication with the counties of the district to the East of us. The establishment is oae worth securing, if possible, as it would mean another nice building for the town, and a market to supply the patients and employees. The law re quires the necessary ground—three or four acres—to be donated, and if the Commission concludes to locate the Hospital in Butler, the peoplo of the town, or at least those who will be benefitted by the location of the hospital here, should contribute the funds necessary for the purchase of the property. The Committee will meet again next Saturday evening, at 8 p. m., at Dr. Neyman's otlic-j, and all are re q tested to attend. A Good Entertainment. The Working Association of tho English Lutheran Cburch of Butler gave a pleasaut entertainment in the church room last Thursday evening, at which Ilev. George Tit/ell, of Par ker, gave an interesting biography of Rev. Christian Gottlieb Schweitzer barth, the celebrated Lutheran minis ter who came to this country in the early years of the century, while yet a young man, and established many of the Lutheran churches in this county. He lived for many years in Zelienople and died there. R(/v. Titzell is a brother of Dr. Waltor Titzell of Butler. At the entertainment, also, Miss Etta Miller sang a solo, Mr. Hart Graham declaimed "The Dying Sol dier" and did unusually well, and Mr. Will Krug recited "Rain after Drouth" in a very pleasing manner. Picnic Next Tuesday. The fare from Butler to the picnic at Slipperyrock Park next Tuesday, given under the auspices of the Nor mal School Association will be but 40 cents.

This is caused by a liiort.- general | intelligence aud broader educatiou on i the part ot the people, and by a lack iot corresponding progress upon the , ! part of the dre'ssmaLgrs. Requesting you to carefully read ! the following, we are, very resyeciful- PITTOCK LA VERY, Gen. Agents. Dressmaking in the Future. From the X:.i .nal I'uion] All arts or trades arc rapidly chang ing and improving under the careful j painstaking ideas of this practical age. Yet there is one art that has j failed to advance in a general v.ay | with the others. We ret'er to the art ; of dressmaking, and especially of • dress cutting. But few people realize the import-1 ance of the above statement; yet within the next few years changes iu ideas aad opinions will force a tidal wave over this country that will swamp everything before it. Like all radical changes there are many who will Gppose it, yet their opposi tion will be carried away with a strength and rush that will make it ap pear as if there was no opposition,while others will be wise enough to see the tide that leads to fortune, and quick enough to take it at its llow. A few years ago a lady thai: waut6d to be well dressed patronized French dl%Bsmakers, not through force of fashion, but for the best reasons, the English and American dressmakers were not able to produce the lit and style as were French dressmakers. This was on aceount of lack oi sys tematic methods used in th-ir work. VVe know full well that many will take issue with us upon this question, yet an examination of the facts will warrant the statement here made and would e?eu admit of stronger argu ment. This question should not be ignor ed by auy and should especially be heeded by the young ladies aud j dressmakers of America. Ideas are constantly changing aud j every day brings out new styles and , combinations which must be under stood ia order to satisfy, and no dress maker is t of doing the work demanded of her and for which cus tomers pay unless she keeps up with these changes. Is the nverage dressmaker abb to meet the demands brought to her by her best customers at this time? No, she is not; and why not? In order to answer this question intelligently it is necessary to examine the plan of training the young dres makers, and then see the methods afterwards fol lowed, The first thing that occurs, a young woman concludes she wants to work at the trade, and goes and sews three or four months with some one who is conducting the business. She is taught but very little of any thing but the plain sewing nud but tonhole making, seeing but little of i the cutting and basting of the dress es that are made iu the establishments. She is taught nothing of scientific principles, not even knowing such ; things exist, aud as to the beauty of n outline in form aud geometric propor- , tion of lines, she has never heard of , such a thing and if her teacher knows anything more about it thau she does herself, it is a rare occurence. So one, after sober reflection, will ; say that the trainiug thus received is ( beneficial to any great degree, and iti most cases everything done has n tendency to unfiit tho worker for good practical work. About the last week j they are engaged in their apprentice ship, they are given a few lessons in some antiquated system, which in its day of glory bad neither (it nor style iu its catalogue of good qualities. With this kind of training or none at ail, the dressmaker sticks out her shingle and goes to work as a "first-class" dressmaker. Now, the wonder is not that they fail iu turn ing out good work, but that they can do anything. There are a few worthy exceptions that goto prove the rule, and all such deserve great praise when the trials they must have encountered are con sidered. The French dressmaker learned some time ago the need of a radical change in such methods, aud a few enterprising far-sighted men went to work to remove tho evil in their own case, and did so to such an extent that they were able to produce sty lish, good fitting dresses upon scien tific principles of cutting and making. The results were that they had more than they could do at fabulous prices. The knowledge of such work having been done extended over England aud America, bearing with it a desire on the part of the ladies ♦<» have their J dressmakers produce for them the same kind of work. This demand aroused a spirit of emulation upon the part of the best city dressmakers in both countries with a result that is beneficial and is helpMg to forward j the revolution above referred to. But j the knowledge upon the part of the i people that there was something better among the possibilities has led to this uprising, until it has become a universal feeling on the part of the people. " This demand must be gratified, and woe unto the dressmaker who tries to ] dam up such a torrent, and great pro fit will be gained by those who are shrewd enough to get in the grand procession. It would be profitable to know the cause of such a change in public sentiment, but it is often difficult to | j understand why a certain wave of sen- j timent passe.i over a country at a cer- ' tain time, yet it is a known fact that ' such things often do occur, but the 1 greatest, factor at work in this case is the effort being put forth by the ' National Garment Cutter Company and to that company is due great cre'Jit. Messrs. I'ittock & Lavery, repre senting the company iu the State of Pennsylvania, have opened instruc tion rooms on Main street; where they will instruct all desiring it in the art of cutting by the most approved methods ( Those desiring to lead in their profession I should certainly see these gentlemen ami in vestigate for themselves. < They come among us highly recommend ed by press and people, and will call upin you at your place of business or homes.
