—On Friday morning of last week, while
engaged in our usual job of mailing the
BCTLKR CITIZEK, "we," the foreman of the
paper.received a shock the effects of which
we were unable to shake off for several
hours. Wo will be frank and tell you fill
about it: While engaged in attending to
nobody's business but our own, an agent
for a type foundry came in and asked if he
could get an order for some type. The
editor immediately asked n.q if any type
was needed—a thing that has not occurred
before to the recollection of the oldest in
habitant—, and we meekly responded we
would like some small pica, " 'Tis order
ed," said His Royal Highness, and in the
same breath he asked "what elseT" We,
getting a little bolder said we would ap
preciate a now font of head letter, be said
" 'tis done," wo stood this all right, but
when he asked "what next?" It took
our breath away but when we came to we
were more bold than before, and asked for
five lonts of fine job type (expecting to get
killed for asking though), but, the same
old reply "So be it," caused us to reflect
and see if we had noticed a screw loose in
tbe editors "make up" that morning, but
he appeared as solid as "pi," and he con
tinued "anything elset" and we ordered
type and labor-saving material enough to
make the CITIZEN office the beat equipped
job office in Butler county (bring on your
jobs). When we recovered, three hours
later, we learned—not through the editor
—that the cause of all this unheard of ex
travagance was the arrival at the editor's
house of what will (by and by) be as
sistant editor. In other word*: its a boy.

The only serious case fried during the

John (or Sony) Me Bride, who was indict
ed for rape under the new law. for having
to do with a girl under 10 years'of age. on
oath of imo- Beighly. a furaier who lives
near Evans City and is the father of the
girl; and though Xosey was convicted of
tie offense which entitles him to 15 year
in the penitentiary there i». at till - writing
some doubts as to whether or not he will
serve his sentence.
It happened this way. llis trial ended
and the jury went out in lis ease about
half-past-five o'clock, Wednesday after
noon; and Xosey was taken back to jail.
The jury was out but a lew minutes when
they sent word that they bad agreed, and.
as the law requires. Nosey was sent for to
hear the verdict. CoL Kedic- went to the
jail and took out both Xosey and a little
Irishman named Nee. who had been ae
united and who was uelighted at liis re
lease. It was dark and he started for the
Court House with one hand on Xosey, but
just at the Court House steps, Xee pushed
between them and bid the Sheriff good-bye,
who was tfcu-- put off his fguard and Xosey
broke for Liberty, and »tarted t iwards
Main St. The Col. took of after him and
the race across the Diamond was at a speed
which, if it had been continued wou'.d have
took them around the world in 30 days, but
Xosey has feet as well as nose»and he
distanced the Sheriff, who saw him last go
ing around the corner of the rink, and
Xosey ran across the creek and jumped
upon a passing train, and the last seen of
! him he was going up a hill some distance
southwest ol town. The Court waited for
an hour, and then took the verdict without
Xosey being present.
Xosey is an oil-well driller, who has
been following the oil developments for
years. lie not a native of this county,
but his mother is said to be living near
Greece City.

A Terrible Accident.
One of the most distressing accidents
j that has ever happened in Hurler eonnty
; was that on the McEltree farm, near
Millerstown. la>t Sunday night.
A young man named IJan.-i 11 was on
; tour at an oil well, and had laid down and
fallen a.-leep alongside the boiler. Towards
morning the rope holding the weight <
the safety valve broke, the valve flew np,
and young Bar.sell was awakened by his
clothing being saturated with escaping
steam and scalding water. He was thrown
into such confusion by the sudden fright
and pain that he could not readily find the
door of the small room for escape, and be
fore he could manage to opeu the door, the
room had filled with steam aud he was
completely scalded. Then he started to
run to his boarding ho;;<e. bat fell by the
way, and was found and carried in "by the
man he boarded with and who jhail heard
the noise.
AYhen his clothing was removed nearly
his entire skin, some flesh, finger ai d toe

jrreat agony till Tuesday afternoon when
death relieved him.

Mrs. Beecher's Story.
It is granted to but few women to be
part of such an eventful life as has been
that of the wife of Henry Ward Beecher.
Xo man of this century had snch a busy
life.filled with .so many honors and achieve
ments; and t<> vi.-w such a career through
the eve.s of hi- life-long companion is a
pleasure rarely given to a public. Mr.
Beecher was a lover of the domestic fire
side. "My home is my temple," he once
said, and in that home he gathered round
him wh&t his nature loved best: birds,
flowers, and dainty bits of china and costly
gems. If he was great in public life, Mr.
I teacher was greater in his home-life. In
the one capacity he gave himself to public;
in the other he reserved himself for his
family. In this latter light lie will be
viewed by his widow in a notable series of
reminiscent papers in Tin Lmliis' IIHIIK
Journal, of Philadelphia, during 1891. The
articles will cover the entire period of their
marriage from their first year of married
lite, when the couple lived ou S3OO for
twelvemonths, until the closing of Mr.
Botcher's great career. Airs. Beecher will
tell of "Mr. Beecher as I Knew Him," and
thousands will gladly listen to her interest
ing story.
