The second degree verdict came in last Sunday and was in the case of the Com. vs Eddie Myers, a real estate dealer of McKeesport, who shot and killed his maiden aunt with whom he lived some months ago. This case was of some local interest on account of a Butler boy being a witness in it. At the time of the shooting, Gilbert Walker of this town, was clerking for a McKeesport firm, and was rooming with a young man named Vankirk, who was the partner of Myers in bnsiness. \ aukirk borrowed Gil's revolver one eve ning about the time of the shooting and it was supposed that the shooting was done with Gil's pistol but such proved to be not the case. Atempted Murder and Sui cide. Harney Brell of Forward twp. whose home was near Reibold Station, closed his notorious career last Monday by shooting his wife and then himself. The bullet that he fired at his wife entered her left breast, struck a rib. glanced around and lodged under the shoulder blade, and she will re cover; hut the one he tired into his own head passed nearly through it and caused instant death. The quarrel between the two immedi ately preceding the shootiug was about money. Mrs. Brell was in Butler last Friday,and while here was paid some money coming to ber from the estate of her father. Jacob Heid, dee'd, Barney knew of it and want ed it, and she would not not give it to him, and the quarrel was almost continu ous from the time she arrived at home till the shooting. He finally went up stairs and got bis revolver, and came down with it in bis band; their eldest daughter, the only child at home at the time, sprang in front of him and tried to prevent it but he reached around her and fired at his wife, who fell to the floor, aud then supposing he had killed his wife, he stepped out into the yard and sent a bullet through his own head. Mrs. Brell refused to allow the body to be brought into the house, and the inquest was held in the summer kitchen. They had been married over tweuty-five years, aud had nine children, three of whom are married. A Mixed-up Case.

"Every face can wear a smile, And can carry it about; But don't wear it all the while, Else you'll surely wear it out.'' A Great American Magazine. THE SUCCESS OF -'THE CESTCRY" ASD ITS PLANS FOR 1891. THE CENTURY MAGAZINE is now so well known that to lell of its past success seems almost an old story. The X. Y. Tribune has said that it and its companion, St. y'tcholas for Young Folks, is.-ued by the same house, "are read by every one person in thirty of the country's population,"— and large editious of both are sent beyond the sea. It is an interesting fact that a few years ago it was found that seven thousand copies of The Century went to Scotland, —ijuite a respectable edition in itself. The question in England is no longer "Who reads an American book?" but "Who does not see the American magazines?" A few years ago The Century about doubled its circulation with the famous War Papers, by General Grant and others, adding many more readers later with the Lincoln History and Kennan's thrilling articles ou the Siberian Exile System. One great feature of 1891 is to be "TIIE GOLD HUNTERS OF CALIFORNIA," describing that remarkable movement to the gold fields in '49, in a series of richly illustrated articles written by survivors, in eluding the narratives of men who went to California by the different route, uccounts of the gold discoveries, life in the mines, the work of the vigilance committees (by the chairmen of the vigilance committees;, etc., etc. General Fremont's last, writing was done for this series, in November appears the opening article, "The First Emigrant Train to California," —crossing the Koekies in 1841, —by General Bidwell, a pioneer of pioneers. Thousands of American families who had some relative or friends among "the Argonauts of '49'' will be interested iu these papers. MANY OTHER GOOD THINGS ARE COMING, — the narrative of an American's travels through that unknown land Thibet (for 700 miles over ground never before trod by a white); the experiences of escaping War- Prisoners; Americans Newspapers described bj well-known journalists; accounts of the groat Indians Fighters, Custer aud others; personal anecdotes of Lincoln, by his pri vate secretaries; "The Faith Doctors," a novel by Edward Eggleston, with a won derfully rich program of novelettes and stories by most of the leading writers, etc., etc. It is also announced that The Century has purchased the right to print, before its appearance in France or any other country, extracts from advance sheets of the famous Talleyrand Memoirs, which have been secretly preserved for halt a century —to be first given to the world through the pages of an American magazine. All Europe is eagerly awaiting the publication of this personal history of Talleyrand— greatest of intriguers and diplomats. The November Century begins the volume, and new subscribers should com mence with that issue. The suoscriptiou price ($4 00) may be remitted directly to the publishers, The Century Co., 33 East 17th St., New York, or single copies may be purchased of any newsdealer. The pub lishers offer to send a free sample copy —a recent back number—to any one desiring it. —Our Ladies' Wool Hose at 25 cents can't be beat All other grades at bargain prices. L.
