The Coinage Committee of the House de

say. Jerry is one of these fellows who
wants the government to estimate the
amount of silver in all the hills of the

of the House and Senate held a joint session
in the Supreme Court room, and were ad
dressed against the bill by several members
of the Standard Oil Co, and for it by ex-
Senators Lee and Emery.
Senator Neeb's bill providing for private

Representative Williams has introduced
a bill which provides that any person per

have the right to bring suit in assumpsit
against any joint owner, joint tenant or
tenant in common holding an interest in
and operating such well to recover the
pro rata share due for any labor done or
materials furnished, and that the interest
of such joint owner, etc., shall be subject
to levy and sale upon any execution issued
to enforce collection of any claim under
this act after judgment obtained by due
process of law. The same right of action
is prescribed for one joint owner aganst
another whose pro rata expense he may

The Ship Canal Commission has an un

Secretary Eben Brewer says that when the

through it than through the Suez canal.
Private capital is ready to build the canal,
but if it is to be a benefit to the country it
must not be a priyate affair. The State or
Uncle Sam should own it.
The medical profession of the whole
State is much interested in the medical
examiners bill and the medical education
bill which are under consideration by the
Judiciary General Committee, at Harris
burg. The old school physicians, or "allo
paths," as they are generally called, favor
the examiners bill, while the homoeopaths
and "eclectics'' are united on the educa
tional bill.
On Monday, the members from the oil
country were the recipients of many tele
grams and petitions regarding the pipe-line
bill, and it was reported that the majority
of the oommnnications were against the
bill. The petitions from Butler county
showed a divided sentiment with the ma
jority in favor of the bill.
The decision of attorney General Hensel
that married women are yet under legal
disability to avail themselves of the gener
al corporation act of 1874 calls for legisla
tive relief. Tho issue was raised by the
application of members of the New Century
Club Philadelphia for a corporate charter,
and the Attorney General has decided that
the married wonians' act of 1887 does not
confer such rights upon women under cover
ture.
Tuesday was a busy day lor the com
mittees. The House Judiciary Committee
heard arguments on the anti-discrimina
tion bill and reported it, and it also report
ed the Medical examiners bill favorably:
the Ways and Means com. amended
the liquor bill to the effect tbat one half
the fees go to the county and one half to
the district,the Educational Com. negatived
tbe educational convention bills; the ap
propriations Com. beard arguments on the
state charities, and the House Committee
on Counties and Townships bad the road
bill under discussion to-day and amended
it in several ways. The road master pro
vision was stricken out and the supervisors
provided for iu the bill are to no their
work at $1.50 a day. The term "road
engineer'' was changed to "county survey
or.'' The Secretary of Internal Affairs
will not have to furnish a draft of roads as
was in the first bill. Aliens may bo
employed if they are taxpayers. The age
limit is stricken ont aud surveyors will
not get mileage.
The committee to investigate the Book
Trust will meet in Philadelphia to day
and the leading educational officers in atr
tendance there at tbe National Educational
Convention will likely meet the Sergeant
at-Arms, who will kindly request them to
appear before tbe committee and tell what
they know of a trust. This will apply to
officials from other States. Mr. EU wood, a
member of the committee, said that their
investigation so far had brought out the
opinion that the State should not publish
the text books, but that each district
should supply them oat ol its school fund.
Considerable flurry was created in the
House when it was noised abroad that
Fow, of Philadelphia, had returned from
Pittsburg armed with an array of figures
against giving an appropriation of $W?,000
to the Western Pennsylvania Institution
for the Instruction of tbe Deaf and Dumb
at Edgcwood. Ho had figures to show
that the institution had in 1889 invested in
mortgages $35,000, and in 1890 $20,500.
These figures, he thought, were all out of
place.

Ma. EDI ION Continuing on sam* East
side of Main street from last square we I
come to the one we will call by the above '
name. If we gave it the name of th« 1
George Vogeley and George Reiber square '
no doubt our present citizens would more I
readily recognize it. But we have to keep j
in mind that we arc giving our reoolleo- j
t-.uns <n iM> years sjr<», and coutms'iug
*»i.r p- .iu

j years ago where now stand* the well j
known cigar factory and tobacco shop of
Mr George Vogeley stood a rather neat
frame house, owned and occupied by the
late Dunlap McLaughlin, Esq. And who
was Dunlap McLaughlin? many will ask.
Dunlap McLaughlin wits a son of the late
Mr. Hugh McGlaugbliu who lived in his
dar at the North West comer of Cunning
ham and Mckean streets, and was a
brother of the late Mr. John B MeGlaugh
lin, who was a Sheriff of this county, elect
ed in 1839, aud of the late Mr. James Mc
Glaughliu. who was a Prothouotary of the
county, elected in 1845. Dunlap their
younger brother, was District Attorney
of the county uetweeu those above two
dates, appointed in 1842. So it will be
seen that fifty years ago they must have
been a family of some importance. James
was one of the founders. 1842, and early
publishers of the present Democratic
Hcrahl and was a man of very consider
able influence and of many good tra.ts
John B. after being Sheriff removed down
into now Clinton Twp. and died there not
manv years ago. Dunlap it will be noticed
was a member of the Bar. It will also be
noticed that be dropped a letter (G) out of
his name, that the others always retained.
Whether he did this from choice or for
convenience in writing his name we do not
know, but as he was not a very expert
pensman and as the G is a pretty hard letter
to make, some said it was to pave the labor
writing it. In person he was a tall, slim
man. somewhat stooped, of good moral
character and genttemanly in deportment
During his time as District Attorney
Mohawk the Indian was tried. After sell
ing to George Vogeley. 1852, he bought of
late Samul M. Lane the property now the
residence of W. D. Brandon, Esq. and
family. About same time he had an inter
est in the Orphans Elonieproperty. About
1855 Mr. MeLanghlin became engaged
with the late lion. Alfred Gilinore. Mr. A.
if. Meylert, uad others in the purchase ol
same coal lands in the eastern part of the
State, to where shortly a ter he removed,
lie died in Philadelphia in 1860. He was
one of the <i rly opponents ot slavery,
abolitionists, us they were tbeu called, and
acted v.-ith a small b.jdy ot that party in
this county for many years.
Mr. Uuah McGlaughlin, father of above
mentioned, lived, as stated, on corner of
Mc Kean and Cunningham streets which is
now owned by one ol the Messrs. Kempers.
We make mention of him from one
particular fact, that his house was known
as the place where to get your tame
pigeons, fitly years and more ago. It was
the headquarters for pigeons, and it was
said Mr. McGlangblin wasthe first to intro
duce that handsome domestic bird into the
town. Here at least.was where the tame
pigeons most did congregate, starting out
from there in the morning and assembling
back there in the evening, to roost. The
house had a large upper porch fronting on
Cunningham street, and there in boxes
with holes for nests provided fur them,
the pigeons wpre bred and reared. They
flew over the whole town. But the small
boy would have to go there to buy his
pigeons, as tbev were all claimed as the
propertv of Mr. McGlaughlin. Now there
does not seem to be the same property
right in them and the owners of pigeons
are now maeb more numerous.
Mr. George Vojreley purchased this lot
from Mr Dunlap McLaughlin in 1852. nnd
in 1874 erected th«; brick iu which he until
late!v lived and in part of which bo yet
ha- l:is line tobacco shop and cigar luctory.
Tue property we bt iieve now belongs to
Mr. D. L. Cleeland.
The next building to this is the Berg
one, in w-iiich is the hardware store recent
ly known as tbat of Berg & Cypher.
Where it .-tands fifty years ago stood a.
frame. Shortly alter the late Mr. John
Bo : came here, about 1835, ho bought
this of lot and here. ab<.\ I*4l, is the
first place wo recollect of hiui g busi
ness. He was a baker by trade aud car
ried on that business tl ere i>i connection
with what we now call a restaurant,oysteis
aud refrefbnients being tho specialties.
From this small beginning he rapidly iu
creased iu means aud soon went into that
of the hardware business, heretofore spokeu
of. lie waß knowu as a strictly correct
business man and we do not know of any
on/ coining here who prospered so speedily
in business. He at one time, we think,
owned where present Stehle toy store is
and where present Kockenstein building
is. At the time of his death, 1884, he was
the owner of various valuable properties in
the town and the farm, north of town
about a mile, on Mercer road, ami perhaps
others, In 1875 he erected the present
large brick on lot we are now speaking of,
the lower part used as a hardware store
and the upper rooms for offices.
The middle lot of this square is tue prop
erty of present Mr. Andrew Miller. The
frame house on it, next to the Berg hard
ware store and now occupied by Mrs.
Marks and daughters for their millinery
store, was built by Mr. Miller. The "'rick
there was built, we believe, by the late
Mr. David H. Potts, at least he lived and
had his shoe making shop there between
1830 and 1840. Dr. James Graham was
the next person we recollect of there and
who became owner and lived in this brick.
Mr. Miiler became owner afterwards aud
bad a brewery there until in late years
Dr. .lames Graham came from Ireland and
besides practicing his profession here he
taught school in town. His first school
was kept in the bouse immediately oppo
site the present rink building on McKcan
street, between 1830 and 1840. Wo were
ot.« of h! pupils. He brought with him
from the •'old country'' some of the ojd
methods of school teaching. One of ihe-c
was the use in his school of Law-, oiher
wi.-e called "cat of nine tails,"' us a whip
or iii.-irumeu' of punishment for the bad
boy. These Ur/s were composed of a
round wooden ban die, about a foot long,
something rebuilding ft rolling pin, and io
one end of which was tacked nine leather
straps of about three feet in length. 0u
the end of each of these nine leather st.u| s
was a knot. This was his whip, aud it
hung upon the wall of the school room as
a warning to all scholars to beware of its
use He frequently did u*e it, and some
time# with terrific force and effect, rnak
ing the offender to fairly jump up every
time the "cat o'nine talU" would descend
upon him. To u-e such a school whip
now would likely enhance interest iu the
debated question of the use of any corporal
punishni'-nt in our present schools. Dr.
Graham afterwards taught in the old But
ler Academy. In person lie was short but
heavy set, fat and fussy, ai.l quite strong,
as anv of his pupils who had nuy experi
ence with bis "cat o' nine tails" could tes
tify. Ho was very fond of reading novels
anil would borrow and read all the lr>oks
of romance he could get. He died about
1H43. in the brick house we have been tell
inp about, being found dead 111 his beil one
morning His habits were unfortunate in
respect to the use of strong drink, hut he
was regarded as a very leaned nan and
bad always a quite extensive practice as a
physician. He had no children. U:s
widow survived him a long time. Hvjfc/ in
the house opposite the present rink. i!e
v. as in no way related to our present Dr.
Sauiirt'l (iraham or any of our other Gra
hao! people.
The next lot of thin square is uow the
property of Mr. George Kcib- i. On the
Main street part of it now are tin jusiuesa
places of the Smith Bros." restaurant, the
W. M. Sickle Ten Ceut Store, aiid thu
Jarecki Manufacturing Co. On the corner
where is tho Jarecki Co. stood, fifty years
ago, a brick in which the late Mr. Jemes
Frazier and his son, tho late Isaiuh 3k'.
Frazier. kept a dry goods and general
store. It was a three storied building and
the first persons we recollect of doing
business m it were the Messrs. Fraziers
mentioned. Mr. Isaiah N. Frazier kept
the postoflice there for a term that he held
that office. About 1845 the lot upon which
it and tho others shove mentioned stood
was purchased by the late Air. William S.
Boyd. Mr. Boyd tore away the old build
ings upon it and erected another and lurger
three-storied brick there, which lie had
ready for business and went into in 1848,
his family moved into pari of it also in
1849. On this comer would :hn~ seem to
have been the first three-storied building
iu the town. The one built by Mr. Boyd,
however, did not remain lone, for in about
ten years after, 1851>. it was burned down.
Then lie erected, 1801, the present two
storied one which has since been enlarged
and had other buildings attached to it ou
Jefferson street by Mr. George Keiber.
Between ihe date of its building, 1848, and
burniug down, 1859, there wejre several
persons associated with Mr Boyd in the
drug and groc-ry business on that corner.
The late Mr. Samuel Marks was with him
in 1848, going with hint there from the
Dougal corner. Mrs Marks, his widow,
with her da .ghters are now liviug a few
doors above on this same square. She is a
daughter of late Mr. Jamei. Frazier men
tioned above and one of the name* we
cht-0.-e to cull this square by. In 1852 the
lat< Mr. Albert 0. Boyd was iu partuei'liip

there, jwobably with them, and probably |
with Mr. Boyd. Mr. Cheesman. we be- !
lieve, went or was with Mr. Boyd after be i
went to the Frazier corner. Mr. Samuel
Marks »as also with the Messrs. Boyd at
the Dougal corner while business was car
ried on there. And here we wish to make
a correction as to the business first done
bv Win. S. and Henry N. Boyd at the
Dougal corner. We have spoken of it as
being that of a grocery and restaurant.
This last one was an error, a slip of the
pen. and should have been drug instead of
restaurant. We probably fell into the
error from recollecting of Mr. Wm. S Boyd
inviting some friends into his store and
furnishing them with "cheese and crack
ers " Bnt be and bis brother Uenry never
kept anything like the modern restaurant.
They were both men of good works and
of high moral character. Our attention
has been called to the error by a daughter
of Henry X. Boyd, Mrs. Julia Evans,
widow of the late Wm. V. Kvans, Esq., of
Tarentum. Pa., where Mrs. Evans is yet
living. She is favorably remembered here
as Miss Julia Boyd and it gives us pleasure
to make the correction referred to. She
states that the third story rooms of the
first building erected by her uncle, Wm. S.
Boyd, on this corner were occupied by the
first Good Templar's Lodge ol Butler.
When Mr. Wm S. Boyd quit business
there he sold out his merchandise to Mr.
George Weber and Mr. Adam Trout us an,
and at a later date he sold the building to
Mr. George Keiber, the present owner.
The date of Mr. Boyd's death has been
given before. Mr. Henry N. Boyd died
bere August 4, 1845. Mr. Samuel Marks
died in Freeport, Pa ,in 1881. Mr. James
Frazier died here in 1839. His son Isaiah
died in Xew V» ilmington, Pa., about 1873.
OLIVER OA YIP—BCOTT—MCKEB SGCABK.
To the square on opposite side of the
street from la-t one we give the above
name. Like all the original squares it had
three lots, which in early days were
generally owned by three different persons.
The late"Mr. Oliver David owned the upper
one, the late Robert Scott, Esq., the
middle one and the late Hugh McKee,
Esq., the lower one. Where the Pape
store and tho two Grieb ones now stand
were store and house of Mr. David.
Our first recollection of Mr. David
is in his keeping a store where
the Pape one now is. His store
was the largest one in Butler for many
years. It was a general store, dry goods
hardware, queen*ware, and almost every
other kind of ware. He did an extensive
business, and this corner became noted for
the number of persons keeping there and
changes made in firms after bim. The
first partner Mr. David had there was the
late Mr. Samuel M. Lane, who came to
Bntler from Huntingdon county, about
1832, and about 1833 became connected
with' Mr. David under the firm name of
David <fc Lane. Then the next firm there
we think was that of Lane. Campbell <t
Yetter, the late Mr. James Campbell and
the late Mr Henrv Yetter going in with
Mr. Lane and Mr. David probably going
out. It was probably carried on as Lane
4 Campbell for some" time after Mr. Yetter
left here. Then next we think that Col.
George S. Havs, of Allegheny Co., and
Col. Wm. F. Kumberger, of, now. Arm
strong Co., became connected with the
store. Col. Hays had been Prothonotary
of Allegheny Co. and we believe is deceas
ed. Col. liuinburger we believe is still
living, rt.en n»xt we think was the firm
ot Hall .t Bastinn. Mr. John Hall came
from Portersville ari l Mr. Wm. Bastian
about. Zelienoplc. Mr. Ilall went West
and died there. Mr. Banian died in Zelie
nople some vats ago. Before their time
however the late Wm. L. Spear & Bros,
kept store there for a time, probably suc
ceeding Mr. Lane or Mr. Campbell in the
business. Hall & Bastian wore succeeded
in 1859 by our present Kobert C. McAboy
and his brother the late .1. Lynn Me. A boy,
who kept store tbere until about 1872,wbeti
they sold the property to tbe late Mr. I)
T. Pape. whose widow and family are still
doing business there in their dry goods and
ladies' furnishing store.
So it will he seen that this corner was a
rather celebrated business one. The
present Grieb stores occupy the remainder
of tbe old David lot. The Mr. John It.
Grieb jewelry store part was but very
recently sold by its owner, Mr. Charles
DuflV, to Mr. Smith of tbe "Bucket Store."
Mr. Charles Grieb, with his hat and gentle
man'H furnishing goods store, occupies tne
other part. Both these last compose a
part of what is known as the "Union
Block."
Mr Oliver David came hero from Middle
sex Twp. where he carried on tho tanning
bnsiness, and also had a tannery here for a
time. He was a hard working, industrious
man. and as a merchant he was very suc
cessful. While attentive to business and
careful of his accounts yet we never heard
bis honesty called in question. He died
here in 1871.
Mr. Samuel M I.ane was a very success
ful business mail hero fifty years HJTO. lie
became owner of several properties and
erected several houses,among them the one
now occupied by W. I). Brandon, Esq., and
family. He represented this county in the
Legislature of the State for a term, being
elected in 1841 He removed to Philadel
phia and died tli. re, January 1. 1-SS4.
The late Mr .fames Campbell (tied here
so recently, IK-0. as to be remembered by
al'. An extendi ■! obituary notice of him
appeared at the time of bis death. Mr.
Henry Yetter •■e believe is long since
deceased. Mr I'ape is deceased. Mr. ,1.
Lynn McAboy, commonly called Lynn, is
deceased. So that of all the men who
were rngaged i business at that David
corner within tin; last fifty year-, but one,
our present " t 0. McAboy, Esq., re
main'. '>r is Hi .g here now.

Keep at it
Some advertisers are too timid.
They upend a few dollars and irait
to see bit/ returns before spending
uny more. Trade was nerer built
tip in that tray. It is the house
that KEEI'S AT IT all the time
that attracts the purchasers.
"Oh, yes, that's a mighty good
scheme for the nctcspapers!" says
the nun-progressive merchant.
So it is, of course, for they get
paid for giving the merchant pub
licity, and the more publicity they
give him the more they should be
paid. Hut as good a scheme as it
is for the newspapers, it is a better
one for the merchant.
If any one doubts it, let him
make a list of the most suecexs
ful business men in Itutler, and
then examine the papers to see if
they arc not the most liberal ad
vertisers.
