pn-.ncd in the Jolict penitentiary for two
year-: and his lecture was on the severi
ties of prison life, which he recounted as a
framing to young men who are inclined to
lie k«Me in their principlees. It certainly
requires some moral courage for a
man to go into the pultiit and hold himself
ap as a terrible example, but that is what
Mr Klgar did. mill be Haiti a greut many
good things.

Quick Work.
On Wednesday evening <if last week, we
ordered new type by telegraph, from a
New York foundry. On Friday evening
the type was here, and that night by 1
o'clock they were in there eases, and were
ready for use on this week's paper.
ThU. we think, was quick work, and
■bowed a promptness that speaks well for
the type manufaoturers.aud also for Adams
Expre-s Company; and an energy and leal
on the part of the Citizkk force—now com
posed of John 11. Reiber (foreman), James
M. Maxwell. Felix C. Xegley and Louis
Scheiring of which we feel very proud.
The type, itself, is from the foundry of
» George (truce's Son A Co.—established in
ItKJ. and one of the best iii the country, I
jjitd it is their No. 14. Brt-rur. We select
ad it f«»r its clean cut face and business like
appearance. When set "leaded," it is, we
think, as easy to read as our old I'rimrr,
though two siws suiMller; and when set
••solid", to accommodate anything of par
ticular interest and length, it is yet easy
to mil. and double the number of letters

A Sudden Death.
Mrs. Melissa Ilindman, the well known
dressmaker of West North street, died
suddenly and unexpectedly last Sunday
evening.
She has been troubled with asthma or
hay fever, every fall, for years, and this
year her sufferings from the disease were
unusually severe, but no one imagined
that il would prove fatal.
On Sunday evening last, however, after
dressing for church, .-.lie had au unusually
severe coughing spell and laid down. Be
coming rapidly worse, her sisters sent for
a physician, Im! she strangled to dealli be
fore he could arrive, rilic was the w iilow
of 11 iiiilinan formerly of near Craigs
villc and has, with her sisters, the Misses
Milliard lived in Butler for several years.
She was buried al Ml Vanillin ceilietry,

off ill KllJ speed.
At West l'earl sjrect he turned abruptly,
the buggy was npnet and the (wo ladies

THE 11th SUCCESS
Of the Butler Co., Agricultural
Society.
Hope succeeding Fear.
SJCCCS. instead of Failure.
Fair weather for the 11th Fair.
That's what the Morions Golden Sunset
o ' last Monday evening meant, after the
day's rain.
Since Monday of this week, the Fair
Grounds in Butler have l>een the scene of
the greatest activity in the county.
All day Tuesday the exhibitors were
busy getting their exhibits in their proper
places.
Wednesday opened fair, and the grounds
were crowded all day. The buildings were
wore full of people, the races were well at
tended. the machinery was all in motion,
the eating-stands and flying horses were
patronized, the side-show man
and all the other itinerants
were making a noise, the old
fiilks were shaking hands and the
young folks were eating peanuts, the
Judge* were judging and the exhibit.- were
being judged, the bands were playing and
the geese were cackling, and everybody
and everything seemed to be having and
uproarously good time.
Thursday morning all the county roads
leading to Butler were lined with wagons
and buggies, all the trains arriving here
were crowded. The town was full of peo
ple and the crowd on the grounds was esti
mated at ten thousand.
A hasty glance at the exhibits showed
us that that of horses was splendid—as
good perhaps as will be seen at any Fair
in the country this year. The cattle sheep,
fowl, vegetable, and fruit exhibit-- were all
good. Floral Hall contained many attrac
tions for the ladies, and some of our mer
chants had tasty exhibits of their wares.
It is impossible for us to give more than
this slight sketch of the fair. The particu
lars in the shape of the list of awards,
should be published, as people take their
stock and produce to a Fair more for an ad
ververtiscmcut than anything else.
NOTES.
li. Miller & Bro. had a splendid exhibit
of furniture in Floral llall, and among oth
er things the beautiful chess-table, made
ly "Uncle Joe" for his niece Clara.
A. Troutmnn & Son hail a fine exhibit of
carpets and rugs; and in the same room,
Mr. W. F. Miller exhibited a carved mantel
manufactured by himself-—the plate glass
for which was made at the Standard Works
here, and silvered by ilr. ,1. Harrsison, an
employee of the works.
Shira, Shira <t Hays exhibited their Al
len Washer, the only perfect machine of
the kind in the world.
Mr.-I. Rosenberg, the merchant tailor
had it handsome exhibit of piece goods,
and made to order suits.
Mr. .1. .1. 11. Millinger bad a new seed
ling potato —the Mountain Hose —of which
he could well feel proud.
A son of I'ob't Barron Esq., ol \\ orth
twp, had some splendid potatoes on axhibi
tiou.
No pool selling or gambling was allowed
on the grounds —a very creditable decision
on the part id'tin; management, and one
that the management of the Millerstown
Fair should duplicate.
Mr. Doutliett's Poland-China pigs and
Mr. Wittee's IJol tein catte were admired
by all. _

Grand Jury Presentment, Sept
Term, 1888.
To the H -n., the Judges of the Court of
Quarier Sessi the County of Butler, in
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
The Graud Inqat -t of the Common veal h
of Pennsylvania, iarj'Jiring in aad : : la •
said county of *ut!er, at September Mssions
in the year ISBS, du resptetlully present, thai
in obedience to inslructions of the Court, w •
have made a e ireful and thoro i.,'!i exan. ia
tion of the public buildings, Court House
and offices there n, a'so of ihe basement and
upper stories i f lh • nuih ing, aud of the ja !,
engine house, st hies aud grounds surround
ing and attached to these buildings.
We are pleased to report that we fiad the
offices all clean anil in a good, healthy con
dition, and we commend the officers in tac'i
for the tidy and cheertul appeal an of the
County otfiees. We find that tile grass plots
in frjnt of tl e Court building are well cated
for and present an attractive appearance to
those who enter the building.
We would recommend that the l
opp<isite the C.>urt 11<»n-e. across Main street
known as the Pa.rk, should, as soon as prac
ticable, he tmpro'. e i and trees planted,walks
made, Ac., so that it would add to the ap
pearance ol the borough aud county build
ings.
We find that the iron bliud in the vault
a taenad to ;he Register & Recorder's office
is ofl. We recommend that it be replaced,
or that the wo. den shutters be removed and
replaced with iron, in order that the records
of that office m iv be n orc securely kept.
We find that in the private offiaa of the
Prothouotary a tabic larg« enough to accom
modate four persons at a time should be fur
nished, aud the uery dLapidated desk iio -v
there should be removed; ai>o in the pro
tno i.otary's offica.a desk with pigeon-holes
for the purpose ol filing unfinished papers, ii
needed, and we recommend that such a desk
ne furnished.
We fi nd that es the waler closets are now
arranged, it is impossible to have them kept
iu a clean or healthy condition audVe rec
ommend that they be remodeled alter the
mofct approved style, so that tiiey may be
large enough, and can be kept iu a condition
fit for the accomodation of those having bus
iness iu couit.
Alter a careful examination of our county
jail v\e heel it in as good condition as it is
possible lor the Sheriff to have it, consider
ing the structure and arrangement of the
building. It is the unanimous opinion of
this jury that, the jail as now constructed, is
cot litted tor the use to which it is applied,
and that to far as the cells are concerned
they are little less than dungeons, without
the iifcsei-taiy ventilation or light for the
preservation of the heaith of prisoners. In
this age of humanity, it is a shame for a
county such as Butler, haying the intelligent
population it has and possessing the wealth
it does, to aliow piisoners to be incarcerated
in such a jail as our prisoners aie compelled
to occupy. We recommend that there be a
small window with iron bars placed in the
back part of every cell in thfc jail—at least
in the lower tiers—for ventilatiiation and
light. It certainly would be more produc
tive of health and cleanliness tliau it now is.
We also recommend that a bath tub for tha
accommodation of the prisoners be placed in
the jail.
We recommend that the grounds attached
to the jail and belonging to th e county be
fenced in with a respectable fence, an 1 that
the giounds be cleaned of all rubbish, level
ed oil and sowed in grass; also that a few
shade trees be placed there so that it will
have the appearance of belonging to some
one.
It haying been reported to this jury that
during the extreme cold weather oi' last win
ter the C'ourc House was not properly heated,
and it became necessary on several occasions
to adjourn court for want of heat to render
the court room comfortable, we therefore
recommend tin t the Commissioners make
provision fir heating ih -court room and
offices. .
It has bet n reported to us that Main
street, which is the most traveled thor
oughfare of the borough, and also a public
highway, has been so blockaded thst vehicles
could not pass at certain points'. We recom
mend that notice be served by proper au
thorities upon the persons so obstructing
the sUeets that all such obstructions be re
moved. so that public travel may not in the
future in any way be impeded; and, further,
that West Jefferson street is in a bad condi
tion and needs immediate attention. We
find a nuisance in the alley back of Jacob
ltoos' grocery store, caused by the lack of
proper sewerage from a privy. We recom
mend that the proper authorities be notified
and that this annoyance be a* onca re
moved.
11 ha:, also been reported that the road lead
ing from M illcrstown to Karns City in
Donegal township, is iu a very bail condi
tion and needs immediate attention. Also
that there was a bridge in liutler township,
on the three degree road, washed away
nonie time iu last July, which should he
rebuilt for the accommodation of the trav
eling public. We recommend that the
proper persons be notified and the bridge
rebuilt.
And now in conclusion, WH cannot close
this report without expressing our appre
ciation of the very able and instructive
charge of the Court given to us upon en
tering upon the discharge of our official
duties, und also to the District Attorney
for the assistance rendered to us in the
eouise of our sessions, and the very care
ful manner in which all papers submitted
to us were prepared, thereby rendering
our work easy and aiding us iu closing
our labors much sooner than we otherwise
could have done. .

NECESSARY PART OF A YOUXtI L VDV'3 EDUCATION.
The N.->?o2al G.irment Cutter pv:>ple os'abHshin' th»fr cutti n ,,
school i'i Butler iiuvo beon instrumental in mo r e fu'lv arMi-intr public
timrnt upon one vitd question than i. t • ever )>efore bseo aroaaed
nnni >lv the one of n practicable education for wou«"0.
The orignatorg of tbis school claim that pironts owe a dir.v to their
daughters to
1 Educate them in ruch a manner that they can earn a pood linn*
by their ovn (f! Rtf, i. MiL'ti ■; thing sin ;! lat ii*» v tim > liecome necessary
2 To be able l.» look af v their own clothing and *co that it is made
rrectly and in becoming style.
3. To be able when the proper ti me cornea, to loiorablyund intelli
gently look after (Le affairs of her ov.n Louie
4 To be ablo to impart useful knowledge to her daag'itera and to
teach them the dangers an! follies of idleness.
.) I ha* a woman may isc'i pendent ac.d earn her own iying as a
matter of arid nut compr< mi • h°r dignity 'hereby.
f» That as a matter of h-. >r -he sho'uldVirn her ow i liv.o.' and not
take it from another without rendering dno vu'.ne therefor.
7 1 hat educating the eve and ba.iQ i a a • aoful and imp >.*tant part of
an education. r
8. Tha' no part that is rtt, ilred to nuke a we'd r. u,. Ed, full and com
plete education s hould be m gka -d. bnt if through mcwUr am* part mast
he neglected, that it should 'iot bo tho practical part but the lighter and more
theoretical.
1 • ri>t a systematic and scientific, practical education s aetua'ly nec
essary it tuo country .. large is t> m.\ke the that the civiliza
tioni ofthe age demands, and ia no place is thia education m ,re greatly
needed than in the household.
10 That the requirements of the ago demand au unlimited knowledge
of how to dress with economy aud comply with the requirement* of the pre
vailing styles. r
11 That employment is an essential to health aud happiness.
li, luat a lazy woman is «s useless to society as a luzy man and
probaoly more dangerous to the comrnunitv.
That here are twelve stron;; htatemeuts pointedly made, none will deny
and that ibey are true, cannot be questioned. In fact if, these statement
were reduced to rules, and then fully practiced, there would l w a reyolutioti
for good snch as tne world has iwver witoe and that this reflation is
actually taking place aud to those wh >ae reading -b. p-. M j of the country
and studying the signs of the times there is uo doub: U ;> Ja this subject But
some will ask, \V hat has the National (iarm- nt to d-» with this sub
ject? By a little investigation it will be shown that tiu li inn ut Cutter and
cutting schools have a great deal to do with it.
A little carelul investigation of the claims set forth would be DrofiUble
afld the first is doubly so.
Think of the fond father with a slender income rearing daughters in all
the care possible within his means but iu case of accideut or death, what are
those daughters goiug to do to turn u rapport? Are they going to be thrown
out upon the world to do as they can, or are thev going 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 honror
able, honest living with her own hands. Thousands of girls are left desti
tute and homeless every year by death aud misfortune and what are they to
do?
Some will find work that they without skill can perform in competition
.vith others of like skill, where the competition makes it nearly impossible
to live. Others will soon die of privations anil hardships while if others
sink iuto degredation and into sin, it is uot to bo wondered at. Parents, ful
fill your duties to ycur daughters and teach them useful knowlede whereby
they, if necessity demands it, cau earn an houest living aud maintain their
womanly diguity.
All ladies should be so trained that they can take charge of a house and
manage it properly so as to be an honor to herself and a blessing to her bos
baud and raise her daughters like the daughters spoken of by the wise man,
when he said, "she looketh well to ways of h :r household,and cateth not
the bread of idleness, she considered a field and buveth it; with the fruit of
her hand she planteth a vinevard. She maketh herself coverings sf tapes
try; her clothing is silk and purple."
By the foregoiug wo are to conclude that it is more honorable for a
woman to eurn her own bread that it is to stay under the roof of another
and share the fruits of his toil without rendering due recompense.
N>t only in your will tbis knowledge be of value to you, bnt
