Vrogresso, the seaport of Merida.
Merida, is the capital of Yucatan, one of
the provinces of Mexico, and is a city of
about 20,000 inhabitants. John joined hi.
father who was practising dentistry there,
twelve years ago, and this was his first
visit home. He and his father are the on
ly dentists in the city and they have been
very successful. The prodnction of •■hemp"
fibre is what maintains the city. The fibre
comes from the Heuequin plant, which
grows without cnltivation; 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 fibre for about ,"i0 cents, though
its market value is about s.'(,.'V». It is ship
ped to Europe aud to the I'nited States
for rope making. The price of everything
excepting what is produced ill tho countrv
is high. A barrel of I T . S. flour costs S2O,
on account of the $lO tariff put on it by the
Mexican government, to encourage the
straggling wheat production of Central
Mexico. Kutter, oil and other imported ar
ticles aro correspondingly high, and thena
tivesdo without them entirely, and lire on
eoru and the native fruits which are cheap.
To make up for tho high cost of living.
John aud bis father charge from $2 to $1
for pulling a tooth, and SIOO for an ordina

they care to do. John says he aveiagej

From the Derrick's la-t Monthly oil re
port we taks the following regarding But
ler Co.—Butler has retro gad ed in product
ion. The figures show a new output of
only H2B barrels, which is a decrease from
last month of 042 barrels. Jefferson Cen
tre, that attracted the entire oleaginous
world by its phenominal wells, has proven
itself evanescent beyond anything yet de
veloped in the country of gushe.rs. Start
ing off with such a bright and extraordinar
ily promising prospect, going up like a
meteor until 7,000 barrels daily was added
to its record, it has finally snnk into insig
nificance with a paltry 400 barrels daily to
its credit. The failure of tjie Christie A- Co.
No. 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 Ceutre. The greatest
activity prevailing iu the county 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 front this week. The laud owners
have already reaped a harvest. There arc
23 drilling wells and 4 rigs. In the hun
dred-foot the new operations are 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
in Butler next Wednesday evening for the
benefit of the Butler High 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. Their repertoire consists of
selections from Sehtiman, Ifayden, Thay
er, Hisliop 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 and a pressing
one, and the people of Butler should see
that the Opera House is crowded. The
admission will fifty cents—no extra charge
for reserved seats.
From the Kaciue (Wis.) Daily Times:
Those of our citizens who failed to at
tend the concert last night, missed a rich
treat, aud one that is seldom afforded us.
Not that Racine does not have the bust 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. AVe have
not had so enjoyable an evening iu a long
time, .anil 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. Madame Fry and her three dangh
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 are correct, pleasing sing
crs, and musicians of great merit.

A Murder Mystery
Some months ago an unknown tramp
was murdered in the woods near lieaver
Falls. The body was buried, but some
day-, after, from information received in an
ainaymon* letter, the grave was reopened,
when it was found that, it had been previ
ously opened and that the head of the
dead tramp had been cut off aud taken
away. The writer or the anonymous let
ter stated that while on his way home one
night he had ecu two ineu dc-cerate the
grave, wrap the head in a black cloth,
throw it into a wagon and drive off.
A detective of Rochester, I'a., has been
at work on the case and has apparently
fastened the crime on two men named
Frank llrown aud Cbas. Brady, who were
sentenced to two years and seven months
and two years and one month in the peni
tentiary by Judge McMichael last Septem
ber for robbing the store of I. E. Hoggs, in
Cranberry township. The men were caught
the day after the robbery, along the road,
carrying tho goods ill their arms, and
promptly plead guilty to the charges.
The Pittsburgh Timet of last Friday gave
an account of the detective's work, as fol
lows:
County 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 Hrown
and Charles Brady, alias Sum Rromlcy.
who were sentenced three weeks ago in the
flutler county courts for larceny and re
ceiving stolen goods. These men belong
to Falls ton, Beaver county, and to them
are attributed the many robberies that
have ocenrred in the Heaver Valley during
the past summer. Detective Lasaius has
unearthed the following facts in regard to
the oiii-e:
Shortly after 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 ou Bromley or
Brady, as lie wrote to his mother a few
day s later saying he had met with
dent by which he lost the use of his lower
limbs. This wan one of the clues on which
Deteolive Lazarus worked for many days
without success. The fact that the mur
derer or murderers disappeared without
leaving a single trace in their wake, fast
ened fiis attention aud almost caused him
to despair.
The other day Brady dropped a note or
letter to liis fellow prisoner and accomplice,
Brown, iu the penitentiary, which was in
tercepted by one of the keepers and tumed
over to Warden "Wright. The wardeu at
once sent the letter, which proved to be au
admission of the crime of murder, to Laza
rus. The letter is ns follows:
' Fred. I see that they have given that
murder up. I know that Beaver Falls po
lice are no good, nor old Ike The 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 some
doctors took it to practice on. Tho other
night I dreamed I saw him before me. I
jumped very near out of bed. I tried to
forget it, but I cannot. It still comes up
in my mind. Docs 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. Wo are all right. No
body knows it, only yourself, that's all.
Good-bye. \ours,
"Cn.vs. BK.U»V."
Chief Lazarus visited the penitentiary
several times during the last few days and
succeeded in obtaining a confession from
both men. Steps will be taken at oucap to
have the prisoners rcmov.vl to Beaver
county, where they will be tried for mur
der.
It is supposed the murderers ct*umitt&l
larceny in Butler county for the pu. >osc of
receiving short sentences, and upon 'being
released at tho expiration of their torms,
the more serious crime would be entirely
forgotten.
Warden Wright, when communicated
with last night, said tho facts given above
concerning the penitentiary end of the
story were eorieet. 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 there Wednes
day. The warden would not hazard an
opinion as to the guilt of the men.
A late telegram from Rochester says that
Detective Lazarus is positive that the men
are the murderers. He evidently bases
this statement on tho confessions made to
him.
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
lie a man from McKcesport and was con
sidered a trauip.
Tho Now Trunk Line.
Some time ago it was reported thiit An
dy Carnagie was buying P.4W. Kail Pond
stock and if that was tho case he was prob
ably working with the Vauderbilts, who
are said to want a line through Pennsylva
nia. A charter has lately boeu granted to
the Beach Creek and N. Y. Kail road 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 line of railroad is al
cady built along part of it, and the pro
posed line to lie built, will connect the
Heading Kailroad System with the PAW.
lines.
The Pittsburg Times of last Tuesday
said —The Vauderbilts own the Peach
Creek Kailroad, and, while their name
does not figure in the new company, they
are no doubt back of it. Its importance
will be recognized when it is stated that it
is th<; last link needed to connect up an
other East and West through line from
New York to Chicago. The line will be
made up as follows, counting from tho
East: The Beading Railroad, the Beach
Creek, Pittsburg and New York Kailroad,
the Pittsburg and Western Kailroad, and
the Chicago and Atlantic. The Yander
bilt alliances west of Chicago are 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 Kailroad will be
built without delay.
Pittsburg's interest in the enterprise lies
in the fact that the new road will furnish
an outlet from Piltt-burg to New York
more direct than that of cither the Penn
sylvania Kailroad or the Baltimore and
Ohio.
A Word to tho Butler Ladles.
For some months past I have
been canvassing for tho 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 the house, and without anx
iety, because the faithful whistle will
announce the need of water.
1 have left the agency with Miss
L. K. Young who will not canvass,
but will take orders for the Cooker
and procure theiu for any desi-ing
tho same.
I hope she may receivo the same
liberal patronage accorded to me.

Regarding the child of J. C. Moyer, of
Scottdale, Somerset Co., which wandered
away from the house of its parents, uud
was subsequently found dead in a swamp,
the Scottdale JmU'peudent sav: "There is
a suspicion that the little child was taken
away and left near the swamp in order to
get all parties away from the house in for
the purpose of robbery. Mr. Cramer, we
understand, is cither township treasurer or
collector, and was supposed to have a
large amount of mouey m the house, and
if all parties left the house it would be au
easy matter to ransack it. Some suspicions
parties were sceu in the vicinity while tho
search was going on, but at no time was
the house left without oceupants. The
idea is a terrible one to contcmplato, yet
when the recent murder in that township
(Saltlick, Fayette county,) is called to
mind, it looks as if the suspicions were
well grounded.

I< you want good gooda and get juat
w bat 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 aro
made of and the same price to every
one bo they rich or poor.
Some stores size the customer up
as be enters their door and nama this
price on the boot or shoe accordingly,
if you are a judge of boots and shoes
you may get even, but the chancea
are teu to one against you, of having
to pay an extra half dollar on your
shoes that the fellow that juat went
out as you came in got off hia pur
chase to oven up things (aa you see)
they say.
THIRD. We buy direct from the
the manufacturer, others buy from
jobbers or middlemen, we save you
thi3 profit otbor dealers pay to the
jobber, that extra money we give to
our customers in aolid leather, atyle
and the lowest price that can be
named.
These are a (ew reaaona why our
trade la increasing all the time all
