Tuesday's Concert
j Tin' Grand Sacred Concert given at the
; German Catholic Church, on Tuesday even
| ing. by the church choir assisted by the
Genuania Orchestra and Miss Rose Weber
of Allegheny, was just -ucb a musical treat
as is appreciated by the music-loving peo
ple of liutler. The audience was ijuite
large, and fully enjoyed the master work
of Prof. Lamb, as shown in the excellent
training di.-pla\ ed hy the orchestra and
chorus.
The interest centered iu the singing of
Miss Weber and the renditions of the <»r
chf-stra. though the home singers were on
Ily accorded a secondary place because
their merits have been In 11 y realized and
enjoyed by Butler audiences before. Xli-s
Weber >aug "O Salutaris" by Verdi, iu the
manner of an article and her other selec
tions were enjoyed. The Orchestra selec
tions were unusually line and evinced
discriminating taste on the part of the con
ductor. The parts most enjoyed, perhaps,
were Mendelssohn's Wedding March and
the overture "Taneredi" by Uo ini. The
choruses were excellent.
The parts taken hy home singers, were
perhaps, we might say gab losti, enjoyed
most of all. Miss Liua Mueller, Miss J.
lieiseuman, Mr. John Koch. Mr. Thco.
Pape and Mr. John Lewis, are a ijuiutet
who might sing with fitucss in any place,
as liutler people well know, and it is
enough to say that they did as well as they
usually mi.
To Prof. I.anil) belong- the supreme
credit. His careful training and superior
talent was everywhere manifest, and we
but hope that he will continue his work iu
Butler, and give u umre of uch concert

I)KAit Sin—Plants arrived on Sat
urday all O. K They were fine and
much ls:tter thin I expected, coming
through the flood and owing to the
lateness of the season. I am satis
fied that you do not conduct your
business on big catalogues and small
plants but on small catalogues und
large plants. I was more than grat
ified at your liberality.
Very Hespectlully,

highly of this house, and plunts we
got are the finest we ever saw ship
ped from a greenhouse In uddition
to cheapness, Mr C'baapel always in
eludes a number ol extra plants which
have here caused a great deal of de
light and satisfaction. Wo would
advise everyone to sen I for Chaapel's
"Book of Flowers and Plauts" which
will be sent free iu response to any

The Truth and Not.nog hut the
Truth.
Many years ago w hen we, along with
our fellow citizens, were paying fI.V) to
$250 for a buggy, we conceived the idea
that less than SIOO ought to b*iy a buggy
good enough for almo i any man. We et
about investigating the matter - went to
the largest manufactoric - in the I'. S. and
made a contract for a lull car load to he
made to our order. We had the cash in
our pocket, and the result was that the
buggies were made and hipped to u
Oiu neighbors (we lived in Prospect, this
county, then) said we miwle a mistake —
that we could not sell them —anil wo con
fess when we did see tlieni all M-t up in a
row we felt a little a though we had an
elephant on our hands in a dry summer,
lint we had good buggies, bought, low l<>r
cash, and of course w.. could sell low. 11
was the lirnt time in the history of liutler
county that a good bui/gy con Id be bought
for less than SIOO. In thirty <1 ay we were out
of buggies and another carload on the way.
IC very body wanted one « >t onr huggie
the rich iiian saw they were good enough
for him to ride in anil the poor loan for the
lirst time in his life rejoiced in being able
to own a buggy, .lusi oit went; our bu
incss grew, neighbor told neighbor; il
spread all over this State and into othci
States until we found it iuipos-ihlc to car
ry on our large bu inc without good hip
ping facilities. We .elected litltleras the
place last Novcmhc We purcha.-ed the
old manufacturing CHtablishuient formerlj

Count of the article uol being as rente ent
