Johnstown Notes. AH the local physician*- met accidentally at the Bedford Street Hospital last Friday night. The} r represented all parts of the stricken city, and after discussing the calamity, all joined in the conclusion that not a soul less than 10,000 people were lost in the 4 flood. On account of the general knowledge possessed by the physicians, their estimates are looked upon as reliable.

A strong legal fight will be made, and if the plaintiffs succeed their example will doubtless be followed by other business men. Thirty-two bodies were recovered Satur day, and this is the biggest find made for some days.

An experience of thirty years with close observation, befits an honest man to give a square opinion, thus: Reno, Nevada, Oct. 5. 1888. "We are >o accustomed to hear our patrons eulogize St. Jacob's Oil. that we never thought it necessary to inquire full}' into any particular case, believing in the old adage that "what everybody says must be true." I have been an apothecary for upwards of thirty years, and since the advent of your Oil have heard nothing but praise therefor. W. PIXXIGFR. (Druggist.) ONCE MORE. The Truth and Nothing but the Truth. Many years ago when we. along with our fellow citizens, were payiiig $l5O to $250 for a buggy, we conceived the idea that less than SIOO ought to buy a buggy good enough for almost any man. We set about investigating the matter—went to the largest manufactories in the U. S. and made a contract for a full car-load to be made to our order. We had the cash in our pocket, and the result was that the buggies were made and shipped to us. OUJ neighbors (we lived in Prospect, this county, then) said we made a mistake— that we could not sell them—and we con fess when we did see them all set up in a row we felt a little as though we had an elephant on our hands iu a dry summer. Bnt we had good bnggies, bought low for cash, and of course we could sell low. It was the first time in the history of Butler county that a good buggy could be bought for less than SIOO. In thirty dayswe were out of buggies and another carload on the way. Everybody wanted one of our buggies— the rich man«eaw they were good enough for him to ride in and the poor man for the first time in his life rejoiced in being able to own a buggy. Just so it went; our bus iness grew, neighbor told neighbor; it spread all over this State and into other States until we found it impossible to car ry on our large business without good ship ping facilities. We selected Hutler as the place last November. We purchased the old manufacturing establishment formerly conducted by G. C. Rocssing & Son, on Cunningham street, where we have located permanently, and Butler can boast to-day of having probably , the largest wholesale and retail carriage dealers in the State. We keep in stock everything in the Car riage, Wagon, Cart Harness and Kobe line. We have top buggies from S4O up to the very finest hand made work. Carts. sl2 up; harness. $0 to the very best hand made harness to be lound anywhere, Ac. Our success in business we attribnte to our rules first adopted, Xcrt r auk exhorbitant prices. Never misrepresent. Thus we have von the good will and confidence of every customer. We say with pride that we have sold hundreds of bupgies on time and never had a man refuse to pay his note on ac count of the article not being as represent ed. This is remarkable, considering our nine years' business. TVe have plenty of money; never sell a note. We discount everj' bill, pay no rent: we give our cus tomers the benefit of all this, and are close cash purchasers. Our large experience gives us a knowledge of the business that can be acquired in no other way. Come down and see us whether you want to buy or not; it is only a little walk down from Main street and it will pay you well. The members of the company are S. 15. Martin court and J. M. Leighner.
