ing so her clothing took fire; but as
she was alone in the house at the
time —her son Thomas, who lives
with ber being at the well—the cir
cumstances are not exactly known.

ing was bnrniug, she rau to the door
and screamed, some children of ber
son in law Mr. John Parker, who
lives nearby heard her and gave the
alarm and Mr. Parker ran to
the house and threw blanket about
Mrs. McGuire and extinguished the
flames, and called a physician, but
she was so badly burned, acid the
shock to her system so great, that she
lived but a few hours, and died that
evening.

Severe Accidents in Penn and
Buller Townships.
Mr. Abner Bartley of Peon Twp.,
of ihe old citizens of the county,
met with a severe accident last Fri
day nicmiug He has not been do
ing hia own work for some years, and
tLat morning was standing in bis
barn watching tbe progress of the
threshing going on there, but he hap
pened to step too near the tumbling
shaft of the machine which caught
his coat and drew him into the ma
-1 chinery. His coat was torn from h;s
person,his right arm was broken near
the shoulder, aud he was otherwise
injured, but at last accounts is doing
well.
Mr. David Pearce, an old citizen
of butler Twp , also met with a se
vere and singular accident, Friday
morning. He was hauling manure
at the time, and in driviug close to
his barn, toppled over a leg standing
against it, which fell upon him, strik
ing his head and back and knocking
him forward upon the front wheel.
His forehead struck the tiro of the
wheel, which cut a fearful gash,
6quarely across it, and then the team
scared and ran, and the scalp was
stripped up over tbe top of his head.
His son ran out and stopped the team
and rescued him from his perilous
position, and after he recovered from
the shock he walked to town and had
Dr. Neyman sew up the wound, a
rather remarkable iustance of heroic
fortitude for a man of his age.

Last Friday and Saturday the
Neshannock, of Jsew Castle, played
here, capturing two games and losing
one. The score of the Friday game
was 11 to 0 in favor of New Castle,
being the first time our boys have
been shut out this year. Their pitch
er, Alexander, had the Fishels at his
mercy and what with our boys hav
ing no pitcher of aay account, and
what with it being a decided case of
rattle, the visitors had no difficulty in
defeating us in about one of the most
tiresome games of the season.
On Saturday two games were
played, both in the afternoon.
The first was a fine game with one
exception. One of the Fishel players
wag sick and but for him the game
would have been ours. As it was, the
score 2to lin favor of the "Nocks,"
indicates a close and interesting game.
Deitz pitched for the Fishels and Bor
land caught in the first and second
games and did splendid work. The
second game was won by our boys
by a score of 6 to 4.
The game was noteworthy in the
improvement in batting shown by
the Fishels. Murdoek, Scott and
Walsh especially distinguishing
themselves.
The Fishels won a game from the
Parker club ou Wednesday, which
was remarkable for nothing in partic
ular. The score was 9to 3. Charles
11. 13redin, of Pittsburg, first base
man of the famous 'BS Fishels, play
ed an errorless game at third for the
Fiehels.

NECESSARY PART OF A
YOUNG LADY'S EDU
CATION.
The National Garment Cutter peo
ple since establishing their cutting
school in Butler have been instrumen
tal in more fully arousing public sen
timent upon one vital question than
has ever before been aroused, namely
the one of a practicable education for
women.
The originators of this school claim
that parents owe a duty to their
daughters to,
1. Educate them in such a man
ner that they can earn a good living ;
by their own efforts, if sneh a thiug i
should at any time become necessary. 1
2. To be able to look after their '
own clothing and see that it is made 1
correctly and in becoming style.
3. To be able when the proper;
time comes, vo honorably and intelli- f
gently look after the affairs of her ;
own house.
4. To be able to impart useful
knowledge to her daughters and to !
teach them the dangurs and follies ot !
idleness.
5. That a woman may be inde
pendent and earn her own living as a
matter of right and not compromise
her dignity thereby.
6. That as a matter of honor she
should earn her own living and not
take it from another without render
ing due value therefor.
7. That educating the eye and
hand is a useful and important pan
of an education.
8. That no part that is required
to make a well rounded, full and com
plete education should be neglected,
but if through necessity some part
must be neglected, that it should not
be the practical part but the lighter
and more theoretical.
9. That a systematic and scien
tific, practical education is actually
necessary if the country at large is to
make the advancements that the civ
ilization of the age demands, and in
no place io this education more great
ly needed than in the household.
10. That the requirements of the
age demand an unlimited knowledge
of how to dress with economy and
comply with the requirements of ifTe
of the prevailing styles.
11. That employment is an essen
tial to health and happiuess.
12. That a lazy lonian is as use
less to society as a lazy man and
probably more dangerous to the com
munity.
That here, tsro twelve strong state
ments pointedly nvt le, none will deny
and that they are true, e>>nnot bo
questioned In IV. et il, these state
ments were reduci 1 to r.iles.and then
fully practiced, th'-r«j -.v->u!;1 bo a rev
olution for good, such us the world
has ever witnessed, and that this
revolution is actu illy taking plai:e
and to those who arc reading the
press of the country and studying the
signs of the times there is no doubt
upon this subject. But Home will ask
what has the National Garment Cut
ter to do with this subject? By a
little investigation it wii! be shown
that the Garment Cutter and cutting
schools have a great deal to do with
it.
A littlo careful investigation of the
claims set forth would be profitable,
and tho fitst is doubly so.
Think of the fond 'ather with a
slender income re.triDg daughters in
all the care passible within hid means
but iu case of accideut or death, what
are those daughters going to do to
earn a support ? Are they going to
be thrown out upon the world io do
as they can, or are they gointr to live
upon the work of another without
rendering value received. What a
relief it would be to that father to
know that the daughter was prepared
to earn an honorable, houost living
with her own hands. Thousands ol
girls are left destitute and homeless
every year by death ami misfortune
and what are they to do ?
Some will find work that they
without skill can perform in competi
tion with others of like skill, where
the competition makes it nearly im
possible to live. Others will soon die
of privations and hardships while if
others sink into degradation and into
sin, it is not to be wondered at. Pa
rents fulfill your duties to your daugh
ters and teach them useful knowledge
whereby they, if necessity demands
it, can earn an houest living and
maintain their womanly dignity.
All ladies should bo so trained that
they can take charge of a and
manage it properly so as to be an
honor to herself and a blessing to her
husband and raise her daughters like
the daughters spokeu of by the wise
man, when he said, '"she looketh well
to the ways of her household, and
eateth not the bread of idleness, she
considereth a field and buyeth it;with
the fruit of her hand she planteth a
vinevard. She maketh herself cover
ings of tapestry; her clothing is silk
and purple."
By the foregoing we are to con
clude that it is more honorable for a
woman to earn her own bread than it
is to stay under the roof of another
and share the fruits of his toil with
out rendering due recompense.
Not only in your household will
this knowledge be of value to you,
but it will fit you. "should you de
sire" to fill one of the many lucrative
positions constantly waiting (or com
petent workers.
GOOD A/AGES FOR OOOD FITTING.
In large cities there is a constant
demand for good litters at salaries
ranging from sls to S2O a week.
There are hundreds of young wo
men throughout the country who
have the tasto and talent to fill such
positions; all they waut is an oppor
tunity, and a knowledge of the laws
that govern the art of dressmaking.
A want of this knowledge precludes
the possibility of reaching a high po
sition as cutter ami fitter.
We will help you iu this matter,
we teach vou in detail the art of cut
ting.

Everybody to His Trade.
Nothing is truer than that a man who at
tempts to l)f a Jack at all trades is successful in
none. Equally true is tt that life is too short
for a man to prepare himself for grappling with
all kinds of diseases. We need specialists in
medicine, and iu large cities it is becoming
more and more the custom for physicians to
adopt some favorite special line of practice.
The name of many such become familiar the
world around, as that of Dr. Douglas who at
tended Ceneral Grant, or that of Dr. Foote. of
New York, whose original ideas of and success
ful practice In chronic diseases, have become
widely known because his entertaining writings
and remarkable cures are to be found in almost
every county of every state of the Union. Ills

ami via San Francisco to Australia and New

ceipt of consultation letters and renorts from
patients in every foreign mail. But this prophet
is not without honor iu his own oountry, and it
