lay the announcement, which was made

The shade* of night were falliug down,
O'er hill and valley, grove and town;
And through the mild and balmy air
With perfume ladened rich and rare,
Came stealing from tbe distant bill
The wild, weird notes of whippoorwill.
* Whippoorwill! Whippoorwill!
The wild, weird notes of Whippoorwill!
I sat beneath a lir tree high.
Whose branehe* seemed to Visit tbe sky;
Tbe wild wind sans a sad -efraiu,
A requiem for my lout Loraine,
Whose angei leet now press the shore,
Within the bright forevermore.
Forevermore! Forevennore!
Within the bright forevermore.
I wept that I should sit alone,
She. who is now berond the sky,
fiat ofl with me iu davs gone by,
But who, alas! With heart so true,
Is far away beyond the blue.
Beyond the blue' ISeyond the blue!
Is far away beyond the blue.
The stars came twinkling, pure and
bright,
Like gems to deck the robe of night,
Their scintillating rays they threw
Across the far off vault of blue;
Tet there I sat, uiy thoughts a*f my.
Alone, and she MI far away.
So tar away! So far away!
Alone, and she so far away.
I mar have slept, perchance 1 dreamed,
But from alwive, around me streamed
A mellow light, whose radiance *hed
A golden halo round my head;
Aad then I aaw, as daylight plain,
A vision of my lost Loraiuo!
Mr lost Loraine! My lost I/oraine! i
A vision of my lost Loraine. I
Her lips were palled with a smile,
That might the xaddest heart beguile,
To lull it from its load of care,
And feel its grief grow light as air.
Her spirit language seemed to lie, I
"There's but a stei> twixt you and inc." j
Twixt you and me' Tw ixt you and me! j
"There • but a step twixt you and me.'*
I stretehed my arm' —returned the night i
The vision vanished from uiy sight,
Sr heart went back to iu old pain,

THE STATE'S FINANCES.
Receipts and Expenditures Dur
ing the Past Year.
The State Treasurer's and Auditor Gen
eral's reports for the fiscal year ending
November 30th. 1889. have bean completed
and placed ia the hands of the public
printer for publication. It will be seen
from the summary appended that the pay
' ments from the general fund exceeded the
receipts by $66,281 76. As the Common
wealth happened to have some money on
hand at the close of the last fiscal year,
there was no deficiency and the bills were
\ promptly met. The general fund receipts
j were 16.528.956 91 and the expenditures
( were #5 595.238 67, the largest expenses
1 for the general fund account in the history
of the State's finances. This is accounted
for by the large appropriations by the
| Lepi-latnre, including two millions to the
i public schools. The sinking fund receipts
for the year were $1,936,442 31 and the
expenditures were 11,587,608 67.

End of the Teachers' Institute.
The very succesful and pleasant Teach
ers' Institute of 18M9 closed last Friday
afternoon.
After the regular program had been
concluded, Rev. Ketler, of Grove City, was
asked to m<ikc a few remarks on moral
training in the public schools. The Rev. '
responded and made an excellent halt '
hour speech—one that would be worth
printing in full, lie said a great many
good things, one of which was that
"Selfinhness is the sum of all human vil
lainies." During his speech a tremendous 1
rain storm came up and many of the
audience left the room.
It was announced that W. P. Jamison '
was secretary of the committee on per
manent certificates, that all applicants for
such certificates should correspond with
him, and he will give notice of the meet
ing* of the commute".
The committee on the Teachers' Union
was then called upon for their report and
Mr. Wilwon read tbe constitution of the
proposed Union, a* printed below, and it (
was voted upon and adopted by those \
teachers present.
The committee on resolution* was then
called upon for their report, and its chair '
man read the resolutions a* printed below.
They thanked the superintendent* and in
structors for their work, and recommended 1
that Prof. Le*lin bo engaged for the next
Institute.
The finance committee reported the re
ceipts a* follow*: From teacher*, $411;
Iroui lectures, $187.70; balance from last. N
year, $147.97, which with the State appro
priatton of S2OO aggregate* $946.67. The (
expenses could not lie stated, a* all the
bill* had not yet been paid.
Mr Russell then made n ntutement re
garding Prof. Leslie's bill, which he said ''
was a surprise to him; told the teachers
thet bringing him back would add 50 cents I ( .
to their fee for next year, and took another j
vote on that question; but the teachers (
seemed to think that Leslie wa* worth an
extra 50 cents and again voted for his re
turn. I (
Miss Partridge wa* then given an oppor- |,
tot ity to advertise her model school, after j
which the Institute adjourned.
RESOLtTIOXS.
Whereas, we believe that the perpetuity
of our free institutions and the advance
ment of education depends mainly upon
our Common School System, therefore, we
look with pleasure upon every effort of the
people to mike our system more efficient.
Rewired, That the" sincere thanks of the
Institute be tendered to our esteemed Su
perintendents for their earnest endeivors
and complete success in the management
of the Institute. Personally we thank you
for individual kindnesses received, and
part wi'h feelings of the highest respect.
Resolved, That believing Miss Partridge
to be one of the foremost educators of the
land, and recognizing her as a lady bril
liant even beyond sex, that we, the teach
ers of Butler" County extend to her our
heartfelt thanks for inestimable services,
and that we endorse her methods.
Whereas, wc the teachers of Butler Co.
do believe that the songs of our Republic
have much more to do with the elevation
of the masses than is generally appreciat
ed. and whereas, we find in Prof. C. E
Leslie, a teachei of music, who realizes
the power of song, and one whose efforts
for us this week will long be remembered,
therefore,
Resolred, That we, in this manner ex
press our thanks for the help Prof. Leslie
has given us, and that we give it as our
opinion that he should be engaged as Mus
ical Director for our next Institute.
Resolved, That our thanks are due to
Professors SchAeffer. Little and Maltby for
their efficient instruction and that we be
lieve their methods practicable and their
suggestions valuable, therefore be it
Resolved, That we thank them for then
kindness and show our appreciation of
their labors by an earnest endeavor to ap
ply their methods in our school work.
Resolred, That our thanks are due to
the County Commissioners for the use of
the Court "House.
Whereas, it has pleased an Allwise God,
in his Providence to remove from
his field of labor, our worthr
State Superintendent, Dr. H. E.
lligbee who fell suddenlv at his post of
du'y, and while we deplore his loss and
bow in submission to the will of God; let
us strive to emulate his example
as an instructor he had few equals.
He possessed a clear head, a strong under
standing and an honest heart. His teach
ings everywhere were expository, sugges
tive. interesting, imbued with the spirit of
charity, he envied no oae, but stood calm
ly in his place ready to perform any task
of duty laid upon him by proper authority.
Therefore, we teachers of Butler County
in Institute assembled, holding as some of
us do, certificates to teach bearing his
signature, shall ever hold sacred his mem
ory and will ever imitate his example in
trying to do a grand and noble work.

Preamble:—Wc the teachers of Butler Co.
recognizing the greatness of our work and
feeling the responsibility devolving upon
us in training and teaching the pupils of
our respective schools, feel deeply the
need we have of each others sympathy
and assistance in our work, do hereby
rcßolve to form ourselves into an Asso
ciation for mutual benefit.
TIIE AIMS OF THIS ABBOCIATIOK.
I. Our highest and greatest aim is the
advancement of the cause of Education
and the promoting the consideration of our
Schools and School System.
11. That, a* one way of accomplishing
this is thorough j»reparation; let us as
teachers especially exert ourselves to ob
tain all the necessary requirements of a
teacher and leave no opportunity pass to
make our work a success in every way.
111. That we cherish more kindly feel
ings toward our fellow workers and as
members of this Association do everything
within our power to encourage and sus
tain our co-workers in the line of Educa
tion as the prosperity of our homes and
country depend to a great extent upon us.
IV. That we urge more and better ap
paratus to be placed in the school rooms of
our County, so as to enable us to do more
and better work.
Y. That we advocate the adoption of
uniform text books in our County.
VI. Knowing from experience that
gaining the necessary qualifications for a
teacher is expensive, we feel that wo
should be more fully compensated for our
labor and therefore ask our wages to be
increased.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
Daniel Gre ire. aped TO years, of near
Grove City, fell dead last Thursday.
Alfred Almstead and Wilson Morse
■were struck by a train, near Freeport. and
both badly hurt.
After a heated discussion lasting for
nearly twelve hours, the Steubenvillo
Presbvtrv decided for revision.
Rev. Johnston, presididing elder of the
M. K. Church at Rlairsville, Pa. suddenly
became insane last week.
Mrs. Arthur Dumnout. wife of a French
glassworker of Tarentum. ran away with a
young gla-sworker named Camillc Demau
eni!. last Thursday. Detectives Conlson
and Demmel arrested the pair at Union
station, in Pittsburg, in the afternoon, as
they were about to depart for the East.
At the Central station the runaway wife
positively refused to go back to her husband
and clung to her lover with passionate" af
fection. They were locked up for a hear
ing this morning.
Alne Dumnout, the erring wife, spoke
English fairly well. She said that she
had been a school teacher in Normandy
and had married Dumnout, and they had
emigrated to Americo. At Tarentum she
had met Demauenil, who was sick. She
ministered to his wants. They fell in love
aud Dumnout, becoming jealous, ordered
his wife not to go to Demauenil's house
anv more. She then left her husband and
eloped.
So strong is the feeling against toll-gates
in Cambria county that at Grubtown, two
miles south of Johnstown, one of these
gates is constantly guarded by officers.
Many people have refused to pay toll, and
when the gate was closed on them they
tore it away or chopped it down, necessi
tating the guard. It is not hard to under
stand this feeling of the people. Few
toll roads give any return for the money
they expect to extort from the public. De
sides toll-gates are a relic of a past age,
and should be relegated to the past.
Krie is bothered by n person who writer
seamlalous letters of the connty and town,
without the least foundation in fact.
Maurice Dinstein, a druggist of Alleghe
ny City, felt drowsy and laid down on a
folding bed to take* a nap before dinner.
His weight caused the bed to close with a
snap, enclosing him iu its embrace. His
clerk was a witness of the atfair and went
to his employers assistance but was una
ble to rescue him. lie became alarmed
and ru>heil into tho street for assistance.
Tho services of two men were secured and
it took tho united efforts of the three to
open the bed. A physician was summon
ed who found that no bones .were broken,
but tho shock Mr. Dinstein received turn
his hair white.
The following verso was found on a
young lawyer'* desk at Hrookville by a
gentleman who called at his office and
found him absent:
Whereas, I know a pretty maid
Who divers tracts of land possesses,
I'm frank to own the aforesaid
Is worthy of iny fond caresses.
Therefore resolved, though love bo blind,
For her effects I'll straightway sue.
In other words the undersigned
Is going forth to wit, to woo.
The body of Peter I.iven good, who was
buried at Johnstown in IKOO, was taken
fro.,; the vault last Friday, ivnd is reported
to be perfectly petrified —completely turn
ed to stone. Such reports are frequent,
and if triy would bo indeed wonderful.
Although these stories roceive popular
credence, scientists contend that animal
flesh does not petrify—that its decompoti
tion is to rapiu to admit tho silica, which
takes the place of the decomposed flesh,
to restore the disintegrating particles as
fast as they are dissolved. It is at least
remarkable that 110 museum has yet been
able to secure, nt any cost, an attraction
of this kind.
Something unique in mortuary matter*
occurred recently in McCalmont township
Jeffernon county. Solomon Ilimes, an old
citizen, who spent most of his time in the
woods with dog and gun, became alarmed
about two weeks ago ou account of the
prevalence of typhoid fever. One of his
old neighbors succumbed to the disease,
and old Ilimes made up his mind his turn
would come next. He accordingly took a
mattock and a shovel, selected a spot on
his farm which lie thought suitable for his
final resting place, and proceeded to dig
his grave both wide and deep. Aft.-r this
he talked in a nonchalant manner about
his obsequies, saying, in his drawling way,
that he really would have preferred to
live, a while Linger, because, as he expres
sed it, "a man has such a gol danged long
time to be dead."
As liitnes was an exceedingly robust
men bis neighbors laughed at his eccen
tricities and whispered around that "Sol
Ilimes was getting a little out of his head"
Hut in the course of a week Ilimes was
down with typhoid fever, and when the
doctor came lie said: There ain't no use
in running up a doctor's bill, when a man
kuows he is going to die." and not a mor
sel of medicine would he permit to pass
his lips. In a few days more he was dead,
and his body now rests in the grave he
prepared.
