—So man should deprive his wife or fam,
ily of a good local paper. They do not go

injured. A fast freight dashed into the
rear of another train, the engine and 31
cars were thrown into the Loyalhanna
creek, the wreck took fire from a car
lime, and several persons were burned to

—A new counterfeit dollar is now in cir
culation and is very deceptive, as it almost
perfectly simulates the genuine. The
piece is brass with a silver plating. The
coin looks to be mnch worn, but the date
IS4I stamped upon it is clear out of propor.
tion. The ring is rather sharp. The de
pressed part looks a shade blue. Half and
quarter dollars arc also in circulation, but
much inferior.
—A negro boy of 10 years has been
hanged for murder in Georgia. This is a
very unusual case and a very distressing
one as well. The extreme penalty of the
law, it would seem, should only be applied
in cases of unquestionable accountability.
There are degrees of moral perception in
creasing from the earliest perception to
maturity, and the range of punishment for
offenses should be adapted to the conditions
in a series from a spanking to the gallows.
—A pleasant little story is told of the
gratitude of Hon. Frank Palmer, the new
public printer,toward a neighboring editor,
who Bad befriended him iu his youth.
Years ago Edgar Cowan, of the Warren
Mail, in this State, was a well established
printer in Jamestown, S. Y., and Frank
Palmer, a boy of 15 years, applied at the
office for a place to learn the art and mys
teries of type Retting. Cowan took a liking
to the boy, who was a remarkably bright
youth, and helped him all he could. They
became fast friends, and have ever remain
ed so. When Palmer was appointed Pub
lic Printer, his first thought was of his old
friend and benefactor. He telegraphed
him: "Come; I need you." Mr. Cowau,
who ia now a man over 60 years of age,
went on to Washington, aud is now Mr.
Palmer's private secretary on a good sala-

—A fascinating miss visited Allentown,
Pa., got over 200 orders, by sample, for a
new style corset, at 92.50 a piece, went to
a retail store and bought them at $1.30
each, delivered them, got her cash and left
for other green fields. This is as it should
be. We take pleasure in recording the
success of the sleek seller by sample. You
can always buy reliable goods at lower
prices from your home dealer than the itin
erant sellers can furnish. People ought to
know this fact in this age. If they are bit
ten and beaten it serves them right. Just
think a moment. What facilities can the
traveling agent or seller have for buying
and selling cheaper than your own mer
chant, grocer, stationer, tailor, druggist,
etc., who have had years of experience,
keep abreast of the times, know the market,
buy for cash in large quantities, are in
close competition, and have a reputation to
sustain?— Franklin News.

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.
Five new cases of typhoid fever were re
ported among the workmen this morning
anil were taken to the Red Cross hospital.
The Red Cross people have opened addi
tional headquarters near General nastings'
headquarters. This organization is still do
ing much good.
. A movement is now on foot among the
citizens of Johnstown to sue the South
Fork Fishing Club for damages caused by
the late disaster. The firm of John Thomas
& Son, who lost heavily, will set the ball
rolling by bringing a suit f»r $150,000. 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. The majority of the bodies
were taken from the cellars of the houses,
and General Hastings was so impressed
with the work and the possibility of a num
ber of bodies being buried in these charnel
houses that he has delegated Contractor
Suppe, of Johnstown, with fifty local men,
to begin clearing cellars.
Twenty-five houses were destroyed by
fire in Johnstown, Monday, by a fire that
originated from sparks from burning de
bris. One of the buildings destroyed was
a large brick schoolhouse, and several of
the others were frame buildings that had
been moved from their foundations by the
flood.

"It Must Be True."
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
