' 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 gootls
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
goods.
The new styles cost no more
and are decidedly better.

A "big" day is something Butler has not
had for a long, long time. There was a
time when the "glorious Fourth" was ob
served with all due pomp, but it seems
past. In a business sense, all our dars
seem such"big days now that we have had
little time or inclination for a celebration.
This is to be regretted, for it is little doubt
ed that more holidays fittingly observed
would tend to rob the American of his
reputation for dyspepsia and nervous pros
tration. Your American, though, is too
fearful of a state of affairs similar to that
of Italy, where common report says they
have upward of 400 holidays every year.
Well, however it is. we are going to
have a day here and a ' big" one, when
everyone is going to let business and cares
and troubles slide for 24 hours, while the
firemen parade and race, aud make every
qualified voter wish himself one of tbeiu.
We're going to have our ears beseiged by
all manner of more or less sweet-toned
bands, from the little "Sharmen paudt,
vot blav so schweet" to the mighty Great
Western Band of Pittsburg, while our eyes
arc confidently expected to be somewhat
blinded by the companies of fire laddies,
who will be here.
The races, of course, will be the most in
teresting feature. They will be held on
North McKean St.. beginning at 2 p. m.
The following are the conditions under
which they will be run:
The first will be Free for All at 2 p. m.
for a pri/.e of £2OO.
At three o'clock the home lace will be
run. The prize is a handsome banner to
be made and presented b\ the ladies of
Butler.
A special prize of a silver trumpet will
be given to the company presenting the
best appearance ou parade. The rules
adopted for the contests are as follows:

A Beaver Co. black snake six feet long,

former firm refused to discharge George

Arthur Businger, a 20 year-old farmer's
son. living six miles north ot Springfield,
Ohio, met with a shocking death last week
from a heavy electric bolt while trying
with a number of others to get some hay in
out of the rain, lie was standing besiefl a
hay wagon, half-loaded, pitchlork in hand,
when heaven's weapon descended. Every
article of clothing on his body was reduced
to shreds except his shirt, only a small
piece of which was left around his neck.
His chest wad made prefectly raw, and a
large, livid, nicely formed cross was mark
ed on his back. Both legs were blackened
and made ghastly; but the most curious
part of the fatality was what happened
after he was struck. The bolt leaving his
body entered the ground at his feet and
excavated as cleanly as if done with a
steam shovel a hole exactly like the grave.
The six other men standing around were
all seriously but none fatally shocked.
The magnificent new shops of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company located at
Juniata, in the eastern part of Altoona,
are rapidly approaching completion and in
a thort while will be opened for active
operations, furnishing employment to over
3,000 additional men. The new plant cost
something like $1,000,000, and together
with the other vast works there will
undoubtedly be the finest in the world.
No expense has been spared in its con
struction. The buildings are models of
architecture and the workman's art, and
the massive machinery is of the latest and
most improved pattern. Ulie plant con
sists of a machine, erecting, boiler, smith

convenience. Two tloors are occupied—
the liner machines and tho \iso depart

is located an immense live-ton crane thai
travels the entire length of the building
and is to be used for transferring the heavy
work from one portion of the shop to
another. Electricity furnishes the motive

A three year old daughter of Mr. Amos
Sowers, of Armstrong Co., met with a
strange and sad death. The child was
playing in the barn and it is thought at
tempted to climb into a buggy over the
wheel. Its foot must have slipped and it
fell with its head between the spokes of
the wheel and stranged before the mishap
i was discovered' When found the child
was quite dead, and although every effort
was made to bring it back to life by the
' nearly frantic parents it was without avail.
A Williamsburg, l'a., youth, aged
twelve years, hung himself until he was
dead the other day because his mother
scolded him for tearing a lace curtain.
Tho boy who would commit self-murder in

anguish and repentance, must have a
gloomy and revengeful heart, although
many bitter words are said by mothers
without Pence or reason.

The great success which has crowned !
the efforts of the Pennsylvania Railroad ;
Company to provide pleasant vacation c.- j

Ocean City, and the next date is Thursday- I
August 7th.
