and says that he greatly enjoyed his trip.
There are some things about the climate of
California that he likes and some things that
he don't like. For instance they have had
no raiu there since the middle of May, and
everything looks dried up. The cattle eat
dry grass during the summer and green dur
ing the winter, the reverse of what it is here,
ami only have to be fed during the first part
of November, when the rains set in and the
old grass rot'. The beet sugar-industry is

Fatal Burning in Donegal Twp.
Mrs. Margaret McGuire, widow of
Peter McGuire, deceased, met with a
terrible death, at ber home in Done
gal Twp., last Sunday afternoon. It
seems that at about 3 o'clock, that
afternoon, she attempted to light a
6re in her room, and that while do
ing so her clothing took fire; but as
she was alone in the house at the
time —her son Thomas, who lives
with her being at the well—the cir
cumstances are not exactly known.
When she discovered that her cloth
ing was burning, she ran to tho door
and screamed, some children of her
son-in-law Mr. John Parker, who
lives nearby heard her and gave the
alarm and Mr. Parker run to
the house aad threw blanket about
Mrs. McUuire and extinguished the
flames, and called a physician, but
she wa9 so badly burned, aad the
shock to her system so great, that she
lived but a tew hours, and died that
evening.

Her remains were buried in St.
Mary's Cemetery, Pittsburg, Tues

Are Interested.
The ladies of Butler appear to be as
deeply interested in the new system
ofcuttiusr, the National Garment Cut
ter, as the men are iu base ball. It is
certainly a very commendable article,
and onr many readers would do well
to improve this very favorable oppor
tunity to aeeure one; it should be in
every family.

Severe Accidents in Penn and
Butler Townships.
Mr. Abner Bartley of Penn Twp ,
one of the old citizens of the county,
met wi'h a severe accident last Fri
day niornitig. He has not been do
ing his own work for some years, aad
that morning was standing in bis
burn watching tbe progress of tbe
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
chinery. His coat was torn from bis
person,his right arm was hroken near
the shoulder, and he was otherwise
injured, but at last accounts is doing
well.
Mr. David Pearce, an oid citizen
of Butler Twp , also met with a se
vere and singular accident, Friday
morning. He was hauling manure
at the time, aad in driving close to
his barn, toppled over a kg 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 tire of the
wheel, which cut a fearful gash,
squarely across it, and then the team
scared and ran, and the scalp was
stripped up over the 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 instance of heroic
fortitude for a man of his age.

Another "Sit down and wait;"
•'Gone to the bank," on the notary's sign;
"Back soon," on the brokea's book;
"Collecting rents," on my agent's hook.
They were all too busy, a matter quite new,
Very sorry Was I, I bad nothing to do;
Then I hied me hence to the base ball
ground,
And every man on the grand stand found.
Worcester <Spy.
Last Friday and Saturday the
Neshannock, of New Castle, played
here, capturing two games and losing
one. The score of the Friday game
was 11 to oin favor of New Castle,
beiug 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 any 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
was sick and but for him the game
would have been ours. As it was, the
score 2 to 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 aud did splendid work. The
second game was wou by our boys
by a score of 6 to 4.
The game was noteworthy in the
improvement in batting shown by
the Fishels. Murdock, Scott and
Walsh especially distinguishing
themselves.
The Fishels won a game from the
Parker club on Wednesday, which
was remarkable for nothing in partic
ular. The score was 9to 3. Charles
H. Bredin, of Pittsburg, first base
man of the famous 'BS Fishels, play
ed an errorless game at third for the
Fishels.

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 such a thing
should at any time become necessary, j
2. To be able to look after their
own clothing and see that it is made
correctly aud in becoming style.
3. To be able when the proper '
time comes, to honorably and intelli- j
gently look after the affairs of her
own house.
4. To bo able to Impart ueeiul
knowledge to her daughters and to
teach them the dangers and follies ol
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-1
ing due value therefor.
7. That educating the eye and t
band is a useful and important part
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 is 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 the
of the prevailing styles.
11. That employment is nn essen
tial to health and happiucss.
12. That a lazy woman is as use
less to society as a lazy man and
probably more daDgerous to the com
munity.
That here are twelve strong state
ments pointedly made, none will deny
and that they arc uue, cannot be
questioned. In fuel si, these state
ments wer? reduc d to rules, am' then
fully practiced, there w-jiild be a rev
olution for good, such as the world
has ever witnessed, and that this
revolution is actually taking place
and to those who are reading the
press of the c iuulry and studying the
signs of the times there is no doubt
upon this ciu-jeet. lui some will ask
what has the National Garment Cut
ter to do with this subject? By a
little investigation it will bo shown
that the Garment Cutter and cutting
schools have a great deal to do with
it.
A little careful investigation of the
claims set forth would be profitable,
and the liist is doubly so.
Think of the fond lather with a
slender iucome rearing daughters in
all the care psssible withiu his means
but iu case of accident or death, what
aie those daughters going to do to
earn a support ? Are they going to
be thrown out upon the world to do
as they can, or are they goiug 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, honest living
with her own hands. Thousands of
girls are left destitute and homeless
every year by death and misfortune
and what are they to do ?
Somo will fiud work that they
without skill cau perform iu 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 iuto degredation and into
sin, it is not to be wondered at. Pa
rents fulfill your duties to your daugh
ters and teach them useful knowledge
wherebv they, if necessity demands
it, can earn au honest living and
maintain their womanly dignity.
All ladies should be so trained that
they cau take charge of a hou«e and
manage it properly so ns to be au
honor to herself and a blessing to her
husband and raise her daughters like
the daughters spoken of by the wise
man, when he said, '"she looketh well
to the ways of her hoaeehold, and
eateth not the bread of idleness, she
considereth a field and buyeth it;witb
the fruit of her hand sho planteth a
vinevard. She maketh herself cover
ings of tapestry; her clothing is silk
and purple."
By the foregoing we arc 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 duo recompense.
Not only iu your household will
this knowledge be of value to von,
but it will fit you. "should you de
sire" to fill one of the many lucrative
positions constantly waiting for com
petent workers.
UOOD WAGES FOR <IOOO FITTINO.
In large cities there is a constant
demand for good fitters at salaries
ranging from sls to S2O a week.
There are hundreds of young wo
men throughout the country who
have the taste and talent to fill such
positions; all they want 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 and fitter.
We will help you in this matter,
we teach you in detail the art of cut
ting.
