GOOD
CLOTHING
CHEAP.
Who would pay 25 per cent
more for good clothing than
the same or an equally as good
could be procured for.
Yet this is continually being
done by persons wanting cloth
ing for lack of knowledge
where to find the closest bar
gains.
As large disposers (we are
running two stores) we are
enabled to purchase our goods
at closer margins.
This enables us to sell at
closer figures. Get posted on
our prices before purchasing.
Come and see the largest
assortment of styles for your
selection. Don't pay this
year's prices for last year's
goo.l s.
The new styles cost no more
and are decidedly better.

making improvements for the railroad

o! the Zodiac between tbe two which
terminate tbe line. It is at present a

brighter than her gigantic rival.
—The State Board of Health has declar

this declaration, and physicians and clergy
men should lend their aid by putting a
stop to what is really dangerous and hurt
ful to a community. In such deaths the
funerals should be strictly private, attend
ed by none but immediate relatives, and
the friends indiscriminately should not be
preniitted to view the remains. There are
numerous instances of whole communities
being infected by coutagious diseases
when the funeral was open and public, and
the State Board of Health is doing a good
thing in calling attention to it, anil ask
ing that such interments lie made private
ly-
—The Pension Office calls attention to a
provision of the Disability Pension bill,
Just enacted, which is of great interest to
the large number of soldiers affected by
the bill. This provision is to the effect
tbat instead of executing their applications
for pensions before a clerk of a court of
record, as the law has berrtofore required,
they may verify them before a notary pub
lic, justice of the peace, or any officer
authoriied to administer oaths for general
purposes who has a seal. If the verifica
tion is made before an officer who uses no
official seal, the act requires that the signa
ture of such officer, and his official seal,
shall be verified by the clerk of a proper
court of record. This will save the com
rades hundred* of thousands dollars. The
practice has heretofore been to require the
execution of these papers before a County
Clerk, and has caused enormous incon
venieuce and cost.

That Hill, Etc.
In an item that appeared in our paper
last week in regard t<> the Chicago Electric
Light sell, we estimated the hill or eleva
tion between Butler and Chicago, and
above an imaginary straight line between
the points; at ten miles, but we now be
lieve that oar estimate was too large, and
get at it this way.
The radius of the Earth is generally put
at 4,000 miles; tie distance on an air line
between the two points as we measure it
on the largest map we can find in the
town, is about 380 miles, and in compari
son with these distances there would not
be a great differ-tnce in the lengths of the
air and straight line. So drawing a dia
gram like this
v ° I ~ " c /
\l '' :
and letting A represent the centre of the
Earth, B Butler, and C Chicago, and D the
central point between the two we have A
to C, the radius of the Earth equal to 4,000
miles, B to D or D to C equal to one half of
380 or 190 miles, and a right angle at D,
and. as the square of the hypotheneuse is
eqaal to the square of the other two sides
of the triangle, all we have to do to sub
tract the square of 190 from the square of
4,000, extract the square root of the re
mainder and take it from 4,000 and we
have the height of the hill l»etween ns.
We make it between 4 and 5 miles.
What do you make itf Allowing ten or
fifteen miles for the difference between
the curved aud straight lines B to C would
make it still less, and fix the height of the
hill at abont four miles.
That problem gives one in idea of the
hill between the two point#, bat it does
not famish a correct idea of how high a
brilliant object would have to be above
Chicago to be seen in Bntler, for this
reason: If there is a highest point between
Butler and Chicago, then, as the surface of
the Earth continually curves, there is also
a highest point between Bntler and that
highest point and so on ad infinitum. Your
vision would be on a straight line ever the
curve, or what is called a tangent in Trig
onometry, and that line would make a
right angle with the radius of the Earth at
the point yoa are standing, and so to get
at that feature«of the question bv a simple
problem we will draw another figure, like
this:
B ~j D
r
/
/
/
/
/
./
Ais the centre of the Earth, B Butler,
C Chicago aad C to D the distance we want
to know. AB is 4,000 miles,and B D 380
miles and a little better. Adding the
square of 380 to that of 4,000, and extract
ing the square root ol the sum we have
4,018, or eighteeu miles more than the
radins.
A brilliant light hovering over Chicago
would have to be at least 18 miles high,
and probably over 20, to be seen in Butler,
and the weight of the wire necessary to
feed a strong electric light, and the rarity
of the air at that height, whioh would
neither carry a strong balloon nor allow of
the electricity passing between the car
bons, make the thing an impossibility.
It is said that the electric light at the
top of the dome of the Capitol at Washing
ton can be seen 150 miles, and if that is
true, it is seen from an elevated point
with low lands between them, and the
respective heights would have to be in
creased many times for double the distance
as the ratio of distances from the tangent
to the curved surface would rapidly in
crease.

Sullivan Throws Up His Con
tract.
At the meeting of the Town Council.
Tuesday evening, a dispatch from Mr. Sul
livan, the contractor, was read, cancelling
his contract with the borough for paving
Main St., and putting in 1500 feet of the
24-inch sewer, aud as his bond had been
found insufficient the contract was formal
ly annulled.
Mr. Osborne, of Frauklin, was the neit
lowest bidder for the paving and it was
stated that he and some other contractors
would be in Butler next day.
The bids for the extension of the 24-inch
sewer to a point below the Fair ground
were opened and read. It was found that
Mr. E. F. Hughes was the lowest bidder at
$1.71 per foot and S6O each for man holes,
and hit bid was accepted, and contract
awarded him, provided his bond is made
satisfactory. The contract will include the
1500 feet thrown up by Mr. |Sullivan, the
entire length from foot of Jefferson St. to
ontlet will be about 4.000 feet and the en
tire cost in the vicinity of SB,OOO.
Mr. Kohler appeared for Mr. Reihing, of
the Willard House, to protest against the
grade of Main St. as established at his
hotel. It was asserted that the plan of the
street required a cut of 3 feet G inches
there, but the matter was thoroughly dis
cussed and the Council was of opinion that
this wan a mistake and that the plan re
quired a cut of aiiout one foot at the cross
ing of Main and Wayne, and the matter
was referred to a committee who were to
meet at the hotel next morning.
Then Mr. Alexander brought up the
Centre Ave. sewer matter, and it of con
sequence brought up the 15-iuch sewer
matter. >
Mr. Black moved to let the 15-inch
sewer contract, Mr. Forquer said it would
be illegal to do so; a discussion ensued;
Mr. Black's motion was withdrawn and
Mr. Schenf k's motion to file the necessary
statements, etc., carried. The lowest bid
for this sewer is $4 35 a foot, a price that
looks too high, and that is probably the
real sticking point.
Tbe committee on the new street across
the island reported that they surveyed a
60 foot street from Walter's mill to the
Pearce property, that they had decided to
called it Negley Ave., aud would hand in a
written report at next regular meeting.
Skillful Surgery.
On Friday last Dr. J. F. Moore, assisted
by Drs. Pillow and Byers, removed a
cancer from the breast of Mrs. Wm. L.
Morrison, of West St.. in the west end of
town, that is regarded as one of more thau
ordinary interest in the profession. The
cancer was in the mammary gland aud one
of tbe breasts was entirely removed, which
it was thought necessary to do in order to
ohock the growth of the cancer aud save
the woman's life. So far she is doing well
and every appearance gives hopes for eutire
recovery. The whole operation is said to
have been performed by the surgeons in
tbe most skillful manner and with com
plete antiseptic precautions.
