assessors elected and sworn in, would like
to know where they stand.
—lt is a fact, perhaps not generally
known, that anyone serving on an election
hoard, is. in consequence, exempt from
duty as a juror for one year and cannot be
compelled to serve. The law on the sub
ject reads: "Services on au election board
exempt the party so serving from jury duty
for a year."

—A good game of ball at the grounds
here last Saturday afternoon was spoiled
by some gentlemen who had bets up and
whisky down. They were a little too eager
regarding the game and crowded over the
foul line, and when the manager of the lo
cal club remonstrated with them, started
a row, which, with the foul language used,
started the spectators home. Later in the
day they were arrested and lined live dol
lars and costs, which, perhaps, will be a
lesson to them.
—"VV e lately made a note of the sale of
the lease of a part of the Walker farm,near
Jefferson Centre at S4OO, an acre, but a sale
made last week goes away ahead of that.
A half interest in a lease of about an acre
ami a half of the Montag farm, was sold to
the MeCalmont Oil Co. at the rate of $lB,-
(>OO an acre. This included one drilling
well and everything connected with it. the
former owners to complete the well and the
new owners to pay ail the bills of the sec
ond well just begun. Mrs. Kornrumph
and John (iunst of that vicinity leased 30
acres each at $1,200 bonus.
—Fxchangcß are always maligning the
poor devil who borrows his neighbor's pa
per to pet the news instead of subscribing.
11 a man is too poor to take a paper (which
is seldom the case) and still insists on read
ing that paper, it should be looked upon
as a compliment by the scribes. But at
the same time it is provoking for a local
publisher to become aware of the fact that
the man who borrows his paper of a neigh
bor. subscribes and pays for one of the
vile, sensational, unreliable sheets printed
at Buffalo, Elmira or some other distant
place and sold on our streets every Satur
day.
—A correspondent wants to know how
to write a short love story. Write it like
all the rest are written. First, let your
hero fall desperately in love with your
heroine. Then manage to have him hit on
the head with a comet or something of
that sort. After which he will
be carried in an insensible condition to the
residence of her whom his soul loveth. In
about three weeks he opens his eyes and ex
claim, "where am 1?" And the heroine,
who has been nursing him all the while,
will answer in sweet, soft tones, "you are
here with me Charley, and I am so glad."
Then he rapidly recovers and they get mar
ried. You can put in the variations to
suit yourself, using either accident or sick
ness with which to prostrate your hero.
But you must down him somehow. That
is imperative.
Plate Glass Improvements.
The Standard Plate Glass Co., of this
town are about completing improvements
which will increase their capacity to 100,
000 feet per mouth, an increase of 40 per
cent.
A gentleman who is voiy familiar with
the plate glass tnule of this country said
lately that the American manufacturers
of plate glass now have the American mar
ket entirely to themselves: Said he:
"The great strides made in this industry
in the United States resulting in the pro
duction of plate glass as good as the French
and English, and a reduction in prices in
in proportion has caused one importer after
another to quit the business. The last ex
elusive importer of plate glass was the
New York agency of the London and Man
chester Plate Glass Company. They were
established in this country for 14 years,but
a few day> ago they were ordered to close
up and sell their stock."
'■The tariff on plate glass is about 150
per cent. This, as well as the great ad
vancements which have been made in the
plate glass business of this country during
the last tew years, has been the reason of
effectively driving all importers of plate
glass out of the American market.
"There are now six plants in the coun
try, the ou- at Creigliton being the lar
gest in the world, and several others arc
comtenplated."

aud Isaac Miller, Esqrs., and the„ defence
by Mr. Hindinan, of Clarion. Miss Seaton
fully identified the defendants as the "par
ties attempting the outrage, aud described
all they did. She changed from one buggy
to the other, on account of the bad conduct

selves.

fendants to make a statement of their case;
but they wanted to be heard in full by

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
Some stem* cut from a c:tl!a lily and
thrown in her back yard by if rs. Rogers,
of Bradford, were eaten by a little boy
named McCrca. He fell asleep, and soon
a'tor his skin grew cold and black. Two
physicians said it was a poison of rare type
which no antidote could reach.
A few days ago a boy named Shattuek.
of Olean. N. Y. drove out to a blackberry
patch. Before he entered the woods he
tied his horse to a treo by a rope with a
loop about his neek. When he came back
ho found his horse had choked to death.
Flies bad probably bothered the animal so
much that he had tightened on th" loop
until it strangled him.
At a recent ''hen party" in a neighbor
ing town one of the ladies proposed that
all who wore false teeth shonld take them
out, and in an instant every jaw in that
assemblage of female loveliness became
toothless and every cheek sunken. Then
the ladies laughed and lisped.
A ten cent copperhead snake hit an
eighty dollar buck belonging to l>r. Allison,
of Kittanning, a few days since and the
buck is dead.
At Xew Castle a petition is being circu
lated asking for the dismissal of George
Morgan, principal of one of the public
schools, because he voted against the Pro
hibitory Amendment on June 18th.
Edward ilellerman, of Philadelphia, who
has been in Mercer Co., lately, buying
up salable cows, left for his home last Fri
day with a car load. This makes seven or
eight ear loads of cows he has shipped east
from that vicinity.
A horse over nineteen hands high and
weighing 2,.'t00 pounds, was shipped from
Meyerstown. Pa., to Boston recently. The
purchaser will put the animal on ex
hibition.
A boy named Spargo, living west of Bel
laire, 0., dreamed he saw a turtle in a
pond and dived after it. lie went out of a
second-story window and received injuries
of which he may die.
Could be happy with either:—At Mead
ville a couple of days since a young man
called on Court Clerk Gaskill for a marriage
license. On giving the lady's age as 20 he
was told her parents" consent was neces
sary. lie meditated, and concluded: -'Just
let it go a few days. I've got another girl
that I like pretty well, and I think she's of
age. I may change my mind; I'll see you
again anyhow."'
During the first year of the war of the re
bellion,there was a large kiln of lime burn
ed on the old Adam Krrett farm, some two
and a half miles south of Adauisburg,
Westmoreland county, by Mr. Krrett's two
sons, James and Michael. Soon after the
lime was burned, and before they had time
to haul it out on the fields, they both en
listed in the army where they sickened and
died or were killed in battle, at all events
they never returned to their home. As no
one ever disturbed the lime kiln, it remains
to this day as they left it. with the excep
tion that an oak tree of considerable size
has grown up right in the center of the
kiln. This monument, of the late un
pleasantness is attracting a great many
curiosity seekers.

ONCE MORE.
The Truth and Nothing but the
T ruth.
Many years ago when we, along with
our fellow citizens, were paying $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 T7. S. aud
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.
Oiu 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
elepliaut on our hands in a dry summer.
But we had good buggies, 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 saw thej were good enough
lor 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 011 our large business without good ship
ping facilities. We selected Butler as the
place last November. We purchased the
old manufacturing establishment formerly
conducted by G. C. Koessing <t Son, 011
Cunningham street, where we have located
permanently, and Butler can boast to-day
of having largest wholesale
and retail carriage dealers in the State.
We keep in stock everything in the Car
riage, Wagon, Cart Harness and Robe
line. We have top baggies from S4O up to
the very finest hand made work. Carts,
sl2 up; harness, $6 to the very best hand
made harness to be tound anywhere, &c.
Our success in business we attribnte to our
rules first adopted, Xever ask exhorbitant
prices. Sever misrepresent. Thus we have
won the good will and confidence of ever}'
customer. We say with pride that we have
sold hundreds of buggies on time aud never
had a man refuse to pay his note on ac
count of the article not being as represent
ed. This is remarkable, L-ousidenng our
nine years' business. We have plenty of
money; never sell a note. We discount
every 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. B. Martin
court and J. M. Leifthner.

The reason why we are having
such a large and increasing trade iu
Boots and Shoes is because there is
merit in them:
Ist. Our ladies shoes are elegant
and stylish in appearance.
2nd. Ail material used is the beat,
selected with special reference to its
wtaring qualities.
3rd. The soles are flexible render
ing the boot exceeding easy and com
fortable to the wearer.
4th. By special method of design
ing patterns aud lasts any lady
wearing a pair of our fine boots will
lind that her foot will have a much
smaller appearance than with ordi
nary boots
sth. We have twice the diil'erent
styles to select from of any other
house in Butler Sell to each aud
every customer at the same price.
Sell good goods—not shoddy—at
lower prices thau inferior trooils are
sold for in other houses Buying iu
large quantities direct from the mau
ufacturer, for cash,we don't buy from
the middleman and don't pay inter
est on borrowed money invested in
the business either.
The great majority ot people of
Butler county are looking for boots
aud shoes that can be sold at a rea
sonable price aud yet give good ser
vice.
There are plenty of soft sheep skin
shoes in the market, looking nicely
when new and fresh from the factory,
but absolutely worthless for wear aud
bard service, such goods as these are
what you can get from some houses
that put out those win 3y advertise
ments always selling goods at cost
and shoes at $1.50 north §2 50 and
all such truLery to catch trade, its
getting to old—won't catch ou any
more Better try something new.
It Las been our aim to give our
custumers a genuine article that has
merit in it. A shoe made of kid not
sheep. So thoroughly have we kept
the ladies "first-class" kid button at
$1.25, 1.50 and 2.00 up to this stand
ard that their reputation is now firm
ly established all over Butler county.
We say fearlessly and proudly,know
ing that it cannot be disputed, these
are the most stylish aud best boots
made at the price.
We say the samo for our men's,
boys'and youths'fine shoes Trade
never was so large, the styles aud
prices do it.
