ties living in or near Sunbury, and who are
accused of seining in the Muddy creek, near

needles.''lor the water and gas mains on
Main St. an to be lowered immediately,
which will also necessitate, the changing
ol all the connections with the houses, und

and haul it away.
—A J..uiig lady nuid to us the other eve
ning that she expected a proposition of
marriage shortly and asked us how she had
better conduct herself on that mo*t
important occasion. As it has been a good
while since we have had any experience in
that line, we took the liberty to speak to
one of our lady friends, who is but recently
engaged, thinking to get a pointer us to
how to answer tbe lair questioner, and
here is the result. We went at the matter
sort of off hand like and said:
"I suppose, of course, that Mr. got
on his knees to propose?" "No, ho
couldn't." "And why couldn't be, pray?''
The answer took our breath. "Er—that is
—er— because I was sitting cn his knee."

quite a sensation. Will has lately gradu
ated from the Theological College at Col
umbus, 0., he is a young man of undoubt
ed worth, bis character is above .suspicion,
and this protest signed by bis enemies iu
Butler, is probably an outcome of the or
ganization of the Co 11 a S.eiety by the
younger members of the German Lutheran
Church of Bntler some yeffrs ago.
—A man uud his wife burled rccetuly

will, bequeath and devise to my wife, I',
.lane Kiininel, who has been faithful and
true, all my estate whatsoever, she to pay
my debts and execute my will. She is cot
to file an inventory, or settle an account."
There is no chance whatever for a legal
battle over that sort of a will, and the
entire absence of legal verbiage is absolute
ly refreshing, considering that it comes
from a ripe lawyer and Judge.
—An Indiana Co. woman think* that the
crows are all thieves. She says that it
makes no difference where the hen turkeys
make their nests the er.iws are .-ure to tind
them and steal their eggs. She says that

imitate a turkey gobbler in the presence of
a lien in order to gain the hcu's affection.

than to steal the eggs.

ing will be held at Kvausburg, Crawford
county, on the second Tuesday of June,
1891."
—Some of the Census enumerators meet
with amusing incidents. When one of
the enumerators of Ilutler linked a certain
lady how many children .'he had been tliu
mother of,the t-dJ him,aud then gave Some
particulars of her misfortunes in that di
rection that are not generally spoken of,

Pension Agent Barclay, of I'itUburg,
says: "The appropriation lor this district
i-> short 1 00, 0t» aud a number of the resid

The Election.
Nine hundred votes is a large number
tor Butler to poll at a local election, and
that on a matter not thoroughly discussed
Vt the election ia Butler la-t Saturday
!*ul votes were polled on the question of
giving the iCouncil authority to increase
the indebtedness of the town, if required.
f«r necessary improvements. 76J votes
were cast in the affirmative and 138 in the
negative, making a iu.ijo.-i _ of G25 iu the
affimative. and we do not think the people
of the town will ever regret their action,
our Main street and both streets from it to
the depots should be paved immediately,
improvements that will cost the town
probably forty thousand dollars, and with
the sewers and present debt, make the
entire debt about sixty thousand dollars,
in bonds running from ten to fifteen years,
but a the actual value of the real estate
of ihe town is probably not far from four
millions, we see no danger of any great in
crease iu taxes from this first step, and
after these absolutely necessary improve
ments are made the people can stop the
Council from going any further, if they see
tit to do ?o.
It is very important that the tirst job of
grading and paving done iu Butier should
be a good one.
The official returns of the vote of iast
Saturday in Butler < u the question ol in
creasing the debt of the town l'or the pux
pose of improving it. is a- follows:

New Numbers.
At the meeting of Council Monday eve
ning, what is called the ••Philadelphia
system'" of numbering streets was adopted
for the town, that is, each block east and
west of Main St., and north and south of
Jefferson St. will hereafter have an initial
number of its own. For instance, the
biock of Main St. north of Jefferson
will have 100 added to its present numbers,
the second block will begin with 201, the
third with 301, and so on. The numbers
on the houses are beiug changed, and the
prices range from 10 to 50 cents. Each 20
feet is entitled to a number. By this
system a man who knows anything about
the town can tell just how many blocks lie
has to go to reach a certain point.
The Council also ordered corner signs for
the streets. Tlifso are of metal,covered with
porcelain, and are about twenty inches
long by four wide. They will be tacked
to the corner houses of all the principal
streets, and will be a great convenience to
strangers.

Electric Bells.
The growth of Butler seems to be felt in
every direction. Two of our leading hotels
are being fitted up with electric bells, the
Willard and the Lowry. The latter is
already wired and the annunciator will be
here in a short time, when the first com
plete system in Butler county will be in
operation. Work will be be
gun on the Willard in a .short time. The
contractor in both cases is the Electric
Supply Co., whose headquarters are at Al
Heck's clothing store.
The hotel annunciator may be new to
some of our readerr; and a light descrip
tion may not be amiss. In the office of
the Lowry House will be placed an an
nunciator, which is a case having an elec
tric bell, and a series of magnets, needles
and numbers, corresponding to the num
bers of the rooms. Wires lead from this
annunciator to pushes located in the
several rooms, and to the battery in the
cellar. I'pon the button being pressed
in any room, say ''2B," a current of elec
tricity passes from the battery to the an
nuueiator, rings the bell, and turns a
needle covering the number "28." This is
done by the first push of the button. If
more pushes are made, the bell rings ac
cordingly ami informs the attending clerk
of the lodgers' wishes, as a card will be
placed beside each button giving instruc
tions for the different number of pushes.
The Willard will have in addition the
Return Call system, which provides a bell
in each room, and is operated from the an
nunciator. It is used for waking guests,
calling to meals, for trains, and for tire
alarms. Its cost is considerable, and it
will doubtless be appreciated by the travel
ing public.
The '.leetrie Supply Co., which is doing
this work, also puts up burglar and fire
alarms, call bells, door bells, and bandits
everything in the line of electric supplies.
