tool dresser, perceiving the trouble, start
ed to run for their lives, but before they
could get out of the derrick tec fast revolv
ing wheels h*d gained such lightning like
momentum that they flew to pieces and
scattered themselves over a large traet of
territory, taking with them all the lower

can form no idea of the terrible wreck
which always follows.

Dr. John Gilkey left Butler for Merida,
Tuesday afternoon, after a two months vis
it to his folks here. He intended taking a
train as far as Cincinnati, and then a
steam boat to Xew Orleans, from which
place a regular line of steam ships runs to
Progresso, the seaport of M crida.
Merida, is the capital of Yucatan, one of
the provinces of Mexico, and is a city of
about 20,000 inhabitants. John joined bis
father who was practising dentistry there,
twelve years ago, and this was his first
visit home, lie and his father are the on
ly dentists in the city and they have been
very successful. Tho production of "hemp"
fibre is what maintains (he city. The fibre
comes from the Henetjuin plant, which
grows without cultivation; the work is
done by the natives for a mere trifle, and
this enables the land-owners, who are
mostly of Spanish descent, to produce a
bale of the hbrc for about 50 ccuts, though
it* market value is about It is ship
ped to Europe aud to the United States

excepting what is produced in the countrv
is high. A barrel of U. S. flour costs S2O,
ou account of the $lO tariff put on it by the
Mexican government, to encourage the
straggling wheat production of Central
Mexico. Butter, oil and other imported ar
ticles are correspondingly high, and tbena
tivesdo without them eutirely, and lire on

ry set of teeth, and have no trouble in get

they care to do. John says he avetagej

Three good wells were struck oil the
Guntz farm, near Jefferson Centre, last

From the JJrrrick's last Monthly Oil re
port we taks the following regarding Bnt
ler Co.—Butler has ret rorrnded iu product
ion. The figures show a new output oi
«mly 828 barrels, which is u decrease from
last month of 642 barrels. Jefferson Cen
tre, that attracted tho entire oleaginous
world by its phenominal wells, has proven
itself evanescent beyond anything yet de
veloped in the country of gashcrs. Start
ing off with such a bright and cxtraordinar
ily promising prospect, going up like a
meteor until 7,0<>0 barrels daily was added
to its record, it has finally Mink into insig
nificance with a paltry 400 barrels daily to
its credit. The failure of the Christie »t Co.
No. 3 and and the Campbell A Murphy No.
2, both on the Greenert heirs' farm, and in
the direction of the only outlet, seals the
doom of Jefferson Centre. The greatest
activity prevailing in the connty at pres
ent, is at Myoma, where Forst's well,
which started at 20 bbls. an hour is down
to 90 bbls. a day. The district will be
heard from this week. The land owners
have already reaped a harvest. There arc
23 drilling wells and 4 rigs. In the hun
dred-foot the new operations aro but 43, of
which 33 are drilling.
For the Benefit of The High
School.
The celebrated Madame Fry Concert Co.,
of Hoston, will appear at the Opera House
iu Butler next Wednesday evening for the
benefit of the Butler liigh School, which
is badly in need of Chemical and Physical
Apparatus
The Company is composed of Madame
Fry and her three daughters, aud Mr.
Wentworth. Tboir repertoiro consists of
selections from Schuman, Ifayden, Thay
er. Bishop and other of the best musical
authors, and both the music and recita
tions will be of the highest order.
The object is a worthy und a pressing
one, and the people of Butler should see
that tho Opera Bouse is crowded. The
admission will fifty cents—no extra charge
for reserved seats.
From the Racine (Wis.) Daily Times:
Those of our citizens who failed to at
tend the concert last night missed a rich
treat, and one that is seldom afforded us.
Not that Rocino does not have the best of
the amusements that are ou the road, but
iu this case, Madame Fry's company hap
pened to be the best of the best. We have
not had so enjoyable an evening in a long
time, .and this was the feeling of those
present, as was evinced by their rapturous
applause and frequent encores. It is one
of those rare combinations sometimes seen,
that newspaper advertising cannot fully
cover. They advertise themselves by their
work. Madamo Fry and her three daugh
ters, Eugenie, Lulu, and Alta, have a good,
friendly, wholesome look. They have good
heads and faces, one feels as if they would
like to know them, and enjoy their society.
From the opening to tho closing they com
manded the close attention of their
audience. They aro correct, pleasing sing
ers, and musicians of great merit.

A Murder Mystery.
Pome month* ago an unknown tramp
was murdered in the woods near Beaver
FalN. The body was bnried, but some
dav-i after, from information received in an
anonymous letter, the grave was reopened,
when it was found that it had been previ
ously opened and that the head of the
dead trump had been cut oIT aud taken
away. The writer of the anonymous let
ter -tated that while on his way home one
night he hail seen two men desecrate the
grave, wrap the head in a black cloth,
throw it into a wagon and drive off.
A detective of Rochester, Pa.. has been
at work '>n the case aud lias apparently
fastened the crime on two men named
Frank Brow n and Cbas. liradv, who were
sentenced to two years aud seven months
ainl two years and oue month in the peni
tentiary by Judge McMiehael last Septein
t>er for robbing the store of 1. E. Hoggs, in
Cranberry township. The men were caught
the day after the robbery, along the road,
carrying the goods in their arms, and
promptly plead gnilty to the charges.
The Pittsburgh Times of last Friday gave
an account of the detective's work, as fol
lows:
Connty Detective Isaac Lazarus, of
Rochester, has been working on the case
with the greatest secrecy for some weeks
past, and as a result of his efforts has lo
cated two men serving sentences in the
penitentiary at present as the murderers of
the dead tramp. They are Fred Brown
and Charles Brady, alias Sam Bromley,
who were sentenced three weeks ago in the
Hutler county courts for larceny and re
ceiving stolen goods. These men belong
to KalNton, Beaver county, and to them
aro attributed the many robberies that
have occurred in the Beaver Valley during
the past summer. Detective Lazains bus
unearthed the following facts in regard to
the case:
Shortly alter the murder Elias Brewer, a
butcher, living near the head of Block
House run, shot at and thought he serious
ly wounded a man who had entered his
house. Suspicion fastened on Bromley or
Brady, as he wrote to his mother a few
days later saying he had met with
dent by which he lost the use of his lower
limbs. This was one of the clues on which
Dcteotive Lazarus worked for many days
without success. The fact that the mur
derer or murderers disappeared without
leaviug a single trace in their wake, fast
ened Cis attention aud almost caused him
to despair.
The other day Brady dropped a note or
letter to his fellow prisoner and accomplice,
Brown, in the penitentiary, which was in
tercepted by one of the keepers aud turned
over to Warden Wright. Tho warden at
once seut the letter, which proved to be uu
admission of tho crime of murder, to Laza
rus. The letter is «r follows:
"Fred, I see that they have given that
murder np. I know that Beaver Falls po
lice aro no good, nor old Ike. Tho papers
say that it remains a deep, dark mystery.
It was a good thing that his head was
taken off, for they can't identify him; we
are all right. They will think that somo
doctors took it to practico on. Tho other
night I dreamed I saw him before 1110. I
jumped very near out of bed. I tried to
forget it. but I cannot. It still comes up
iu my mind. Does it bother you any? But
keep up in good heart and we will be all
right. They say that no effort will be
made any more. We are all right. No
body knows it, only yourself, that's all.
Good-bye. ours,
"CKAS. BRAHT."
Chief Lazarus visited the penitentiary
several times during the last few days and
succeeded in obtaining a confession from
both men. Steps will be takeu at to
have the prisoners removed to Beaver
county, where they will be tried for mur
der.
It is supposed the murderers cc-omitted
larceny in Butler connty for the pu. >.osc of
receiving short sentences, and upon 'being
released at tho expiration of their terms,
the more serious crime would be entirely
forgotten.
Warden Wright, when communicated
with last night, said tho facta given above
concerning the penitentiary end of the
story wereeoriect. Brady had dropped the
note, and when the warden obtained it he
immediately sent it to Lazarus. The lat
ter, he says, has been in to see the prison
ers several times, and was tlioro Wednes
day. The warden would not hazard an
opinion as to the guilt of the men.
A lale telegram from Rochester says that
Detective Lazarus is positive that the men
aro the murderers. He eyideutly bases
this statement on tho confessions made to
hi i.
As Brady speaks of the dead man as
Spencer, it is now thought that such is the
name of the man who was murdered. It
was at one time stated that the body was
not that of Spencer, who was supposed to
be a man from McKcosport and was con
sidered a tramp.
The New Trunk Line.
Some time ago it was reported that An
dy Curnagie was buying P.iV. Kail Road
stock and if tbat was tho case he was prob
ably working with the YanderbilU, who
are said to waut a liue through Pennsylva
nia. A charter has lately beeu granted to
the Beach Creek and N. V. Railroad Co.
which proposes building a line from a point
in Clinton Co. to a point in Butler Co.
Beach Creek runs through Centre and Clin
ton Counties and enters the Susquehanna
at Lock Haven. A liue of railroad is al-
Cftdy built along part of it, and the pro
posed line to be built, will connect the
Heading Railroad System with the P. AW.
lines.
The I'ittsbnrg Times of last Tuesday
said—The Vunderbilts own the Beach
Creek Railroad, and, while their name
does not figure in the new compauy, they
are no doubt back of it. Its importance
will be recognized when it is stated that it
is the last link needed to connect up an
other East and West through line from
>'ew York to Chicago, The line will be
made up as follows, counting from the
East: The Reading Railroad, the Beach
Creek, Pittsburg and New York Railroad,
the Pittsburg and Western Railroad, anil
the Chicago and Atlantic. Tho Vunder
wit alliances west of Chicago uro now
such that their existing lines cannot hand
le the business for the East created. For
this reason it is probable the Beach Creek,
Pittsburg and New York Railroad will be
built without delay.
Pittsburg's interest in the enterprise lies
in the fact that the new road will furnish
an outlet from Pittsbnrg to Xew York
more direct than that of cither the Penn
sylvania Railroad or the Baltimore and
Ohio.
A Word to the Butler Ladles.
For some months past I have
been canvassing for the Peerless
Steam Cooker, but have now remov
ed to Mercer.
1 have sold between one and two
hundred of these articles to house
keepers who are now cooking their
entire dinners over one hole in their
stoves, without any steam or odors
through tho house, and without anx
iety, because the faithful whistle will
announce the need of water.
I have left the agency with Miss
Ij. E. Young who will not canvass,
but will take orders for the Cooker
and procure them for any riesi-ing
the same.
I hope she may receivo the same
liberal patronage accorded to me.

Property Notes.
1). A. Kamerer has sold bis house in
Duflytown to Thos. Bester, of Groece City.
Mr. C. E Hcrr sold his house in Petrolia
for S7OO and purchased the Howard Thomp
son house, on McKean street, for 1*3,700.
Andy Bortmas sold his hoiiße oil the flat,
Monday, to John F. Lowry.
Regarding the child of J. C. Moyer, of
Scottdale, Somerset Co., which wandered
away from the house of its parents, and
was subsequently found dead in a swamp,
the Scottdale Independent say: "There is
a suspicion that the little child was taken
away and left near tho swamp in order to
get all parties away from the house in for
the purpose of robber}'. Mr. Cramer, we
understand, is either township treasurer or
collector, and was supj>o*eu to have a
large amount of moucy in the house, and
if all parties left the house it would be au
easy matter to ransack it. Some suspicious
parties were seen in the vicinity while the
search was going on, but ut no time was
the house left without oceupants. The
idea is a terrible one to contcmplute, yet
when the recent murder in that township
(Saltlick, Payette county,) is called to
mind, it looks as if the suspicions were
well grounded.

IMPORTANT
TO BUYERS OF PALL AND
WINTER FOOTWEAR
TO GO TO
Huselton's
If 70a want good goods and get just
w hat you paj for, for
several reasons:
FIRST. The stock is three times
as large to select from as any other
bouse in Butler.
SECOND. Each and every custom
er is told just what the goods are
made of and the same price to every
one be they rich or poor.
Some stores size the customer up
as be eaters their door and nams the
price on the boot or shoe accordingly,
if you are a judge of boots and shoes
you may get even, but the chances
are ten to one against yon, of having
to pay an extra half dollar on your
shoes that the fellow that just went
out as you came in got off bis pur
chase to even up things (as yon see)
they say.
THIRD. We buy direct from the
the manufacturer, others buy from
jobbers or middlemen, we save yon
this proGt other dealers pay to the
jobber, that extra money we give to
our customers in solid leather, style
and the lowest price that can be
named.
These are a few reasons why our
trade is increasing all the time all
over the county. Our reputation for
good reliable Boots and Shoes and
Straight Prices is A No. 1. Good
goods and low prices, do the work.
You can't afford to buy from any
bouse that don't sustain a reputation
for straight business and reliable in
every respect.
We want you to see our immense
stock of Men's, Boys'and Youths'
