Some murmur when their -ki is clear
And whollv bright to view.

One rav of God's good mercy, gild
The darkness of their night.

tion lost by the collapse of the Chartiers

—The Crawford Journal say that "hay
ha, been offered at Conneautvillo for $5 a
ton." This low price is the consequence of
an unusually large yield I his year. But

will feed it to hi- stock and thus enrich
his land. So low priced hay may be a ben
efit rather than an evil
—A petition is in circulation asking the
Legislature to pass a law prohibiting per
sons fro in traveling over the public roads

Campbell Co.—the new organization

other companies.
—An exchange says that every news
paper in the State should publish the fa<;t
that burnt com is a sure cure for hog
cholera. It was first discovered by the
burning of a pile of corn belonging to a dis
tillery ut Peoria. It was thrown to the
hogs ond readily eaten by them. Before
that time a number had been dying each
day with the cholera, but the disease im
mediately disappeared. The remedy is so
simple that, it can easily be tried.
—The public school law now in force in
!,'•» State provides that the use of profane
or obscene language by a pupil -hall con
stitute good cause for expulsion from

geronsly.
—The Methodist Episcopal Church and

Park on Friday, the 23d of August. A
special train will leave the P. <fc W. depot
at about 3:15 a.m. town time, fhe excur
sion will be accotupauied by a hand. Tin
park is in splendid condition, and any
friends who may desire to spend a day
plcasunlly will be made welcome. Tickets
for the excursion will be for sale at Jack
son ii Mitchell's, J. 11. Douglass' and W.
A. Osborne's on the North Side and Harper
Bros.' on the South Side, at 40 and 20
cents.
—Several more remarkable euros all
credited to the new Brown Sequnrd elixer;
including one of an old man who had been
suffering from rheumatism for years, and
who, after being treated with an elixcr
made from the glands of a rabbit went hop
ping over the fields and nibbling at the
grass. If this discovery is all that is claim
ed for it, if it is going to make all the old
people young again, it. will be a ail blow
to the undertaker's business, and hereafter
we will purchase immortality at the drug
store at one dollar a bottle. No case of a
dead man being brought to life again by
the elixir has yet been reported.
—"Go away from home for the news,"
etc. A Harrisburg paper lately contained
the following item: —The associate judges
of Butler county, citizens and tax payers of
that county, have overruled the law judge,
who is not a citizen and tax payer of that
county, in the matter oi the as-cssuient of
unseated lan Is, owned generally by non
residents. The law judge held
commissioners did wrong in increasing the
assessment; while the associates bold they
did not. As two are greater than one, the
assessment of the commissioners will stand
and the foreign property holder will have
to "cash up."
—A Pittsburg printer, whose home is in
Beaver, tells the following story on Sena
tor Quay: At the close of the la-t com
paign, when yuuy had been away from
home for a long time, lie returned and was
warmly greeted by bis old neighbors.
Among the latter was a young man, to
whom the Senator sail: "How is your
fathcrf" "lie is dead." said the young
man, "he died a mouth ago." "1, that so?"
said the Senator. "I'm very sorry to hear
it." The next day, iu walking about tin
town Quay met the same young man, and
shook hands with liini ugaiu, forgetting
that he had met tho day before, and again
did he ask the question: "How is your
I'atherf" The young man looked ut him
sadly: "lie is still dead."
Butler can boast of several young la
dies who iue highly accomplished in the
equestrian art. Their fearless manage
ment of untamed steeds, in cases of ex
tremity, would to shame many faint
hearted dolts of the opposite sex, who
would faint from sheer fright if placed iu
the same perilous situations. It hardly
seems possible that these same beings who
would climb it greased telegraph pole to
escape a diminutive mouse, will with the
fearlessness and grace of a Minerva or a
-loau of Aret, whip a wild, vicious horse
into submission and then gallop away like
the wind. Such is indeed the case, for we
have witnessed it. and we have no doubt
that they would piling with a light brigade
"into the jaws of death" with us little lies
itatiou.

her way to see a sick grandchild in Kilin

whistled for the handbrakes, but before
they e.otild be u>i-il the train passed upon
a sharp curve and upset, excepting the en

Mr Scott arrived home Friday. Hi- in
juries are painful but not serious. His head
and knee were cut and he had
three ribs broken. After the air brakes
parted, the speed of the train so increased
that the cars ran along on the left side

curve where they upset. Everybody on
the right side, including himself, were
thrown across the eiis. llis head hit the
top of the ear. and hi- side the hat rack on

Adams Held for Court.
The hearing in the case of the Com. vs
W. J. Adams, for cutting Jacob Black lie,
took place before Esq. Keck Monday after
noon.
Blacklie's ?tory was about as follows.
He bad known "Fanny" in Golden City,
and went to see her that Saturday even
iug not knowing anything of Adams. He
knocked at the door and it was opened by
Adams who asked him what he wanted.
He asked if Fanny was at home and Ad
ams told him to get out, called him a son
of a , and pushed him off the porch.
Then Adam.- followed liini and grappled
with hiin and he threw Adams down. Ad
ams asked him to let him up anil he did
so, when Adams attacked him with the
knife and cut him. Then fearing for his
life he called upon the young man who
had accompanied him to the house to help
him, and Habn came and helped pull or
push Adams away. Then they separated
anil ITahn helped him to get away. He
was dangerously cut, and thought he was
going to die, was in bed eight, days, and
now when he works hard he get a pain in
the aide, where he was cut. He is not a
married man; he had a wife ill Germany
but they were divorced.
liahn corroborated Blackle in everything
and the Esq. held Adains for Court in sl,-
000, and Nixon and Roche bailed him.
The Firemen.
The parade of the Ho ;e Companies last
Thursday night was one of the prettiest
sights ever seen in Bntler. and the turily
appearance of the firemen themselves,
< ombined with their record, give the citi
zens of this town as full a sense of security
against fire as i probably held by the citi
zens of any tow nin the country. TVe all
feel proud of our Fire Department—it can't
be beat in the Cniteil States, either for
appearances or work.
Their festival was a great, ucee.-s, and
with the money made in the bicycle contest,

materially aided us at the festival; to the
Springda'le ll»se Co.. the Good Will Hose
Co., and No. 1 Hose Co., for their assist
ance in the parade and their aid generally
during the festival.
Found Dead.
While working in a grain field on the
Slater place, near Carbon Centre, la t Mon
day morning, a man discovered the body
of a wonnin lying in the tramp. He went
to the pump lat ion ol the Transit Co. and
made known hi diseoverj and word of jt
was sent to Sheriff liedie, who in turn in
formed tin" Coroner, and he immediately
went out and held an iuquc-t.
The body was in too advanced a stage of
dec imposition to allow of an examination,
but the clothing was identified as that of
Mrs. Biddy Whelan, a daughter of John
MeGrady of the vicinity, and who for .umie
time hod been living iu Pittsburg. When
last seen alive she had jn-t left the cars at
the stution and had started to walk aero--
the fields to her parent's residence on the
Slater farm. Thi 'was on the evening of
the 2."ilh of July, and nothing being known
of the circumstances of her death the jun
so state in their report. Esq. Keck took
a coffin out and buried the body next, daj.
—We are sorry that the bustle is going
out of fashion, us a moderate sized oue
adds much to the appearance of the aver
age woman, The bustle should stay, but
that worst of all abominations, the corset
should go.—Hi n.i, H CITIZEN We are
willing to defer to the judgment of brother
Negley, yet to use a homely expression.we
are inclined to think that some women
with a big bustle and no corset would look
like the "devil in a brush heap " The
ladies can safely be depended on to look
after these side is ues for themselves. —
•Mercer f'n v The bustle is not a "side
issue," it's a buck i- ue, being worn by
the ladies of Butler some distance below
thu backs of their necks. If the ladies of
Mercer wear their bustles on their -ides, of
ei.urse they look like the "devil in a brush
heap."
—Now that nearly all the men are wear
ing flannel shirts, and as soon as the
weather gets colder the women will be do
ing thu .same, it might lie well to know
how flannel should bo washed. <>l course
some women will turn up their nose < and
say "What do editors know about wa h
ing?'' Hut tonus editor are niarter than
they look. It is discouraging for a man to
put on n flannel shjrt, after it, has been
wa-bed the first time, and find the affair
too short, by three or four inches; and e\
cry time it is improperly washed it get
shorter till it i only fit to end to the hi .i
then who wear nothing but a shirt and tlio
shorter it is the better they like it If
flannel is properly washed the first time
it will not afterwards shrink. The proper
wav is to sotiee the garment into hot soap
iUils- never rubbing it put it repeatedly
through a wringer. The garment should
never be wrung with the hands and should
never be put in cold water.

ONCE MORE.
The Truth ami Nothing but the
Truth.
Mam \ i ars ago when we. alone with
our fellow citizens, were paying }I oO to
$250 for a buggy, we conceived the idea
that b -lloin i 100 ought to buy a buggy
good enough for_almost any man We -et
about investigating the matter- went to
the laii'i l manufactories iu the I'. S. and
made a contract for a full car load to he
made to our order. We had the cash iu
our pocket, and the i< nit was lloit tlie
huggie- were made and . hipped to us.
Oiu neighbors (we lived in Prospect, tin
county, then) aid we made a luistaki—
that we could not sell them —and we eon
le when we did see them all .set up in fl
row we felt a little iis though we had an
f'lcphanl on our band in a dry summer.
Hilt we had good buggies, bought low for
i-ash* and of course we could sell low. Il
wa the lir t time in the histor\ of Hutler
count \ that a good bmrgy could be bought
I'orh than sloo. lu thisiy day-w e were out
oi buggii ; and another carload on the way
Everybody wanted one of our bui'gie --
the rich man aw the\ were good enough
for him to ride iu and the poor man for the
I'll t time in his life rejoiced ill la iliir able
to own a buggy. .In t •> it went; our bus
iile s grew, neighbor told neighbor; il
spread all over this State and into other
State < uiit il we found il inipo -ihle to car

patterns and lasts any lady
wearing a pair of oar fine hoots wiil
tiud that her loo'. wMI have a much
smaller appearance than with ordi
nary boots.
sth Wo hare twice the different
styles to select from of any other

every customer at the same price.
Sell good goods— not shoddy—at
lower prices than inferior goods are
sold for in other houses. Buying in
lara-e quantities direct from the man
ufacturer, for cash,we don't buy from
the middleman and don't pay inter

There are plenty of soft sheep skiu
shoes in Ihe market, looking nicely

hard service, such goods as these are
what you can get from some houses

all such triclcry to catch trade, its

merit in it. A shoe made of kid not
