Judge Mitchell, of the Tioga county
Court, has created something like a sensa
lion among the lawyers over there by de
ciding that the scroll [L. B.] is not a legal
seal, but simply a mark to indicate where ,
the seal should be placed on printed docu
ments. The initials stand lor the Latin
locus ncgeli, "place ot the seal," and were
first used by William Bradford.a printer ol
the time of "William Penn. Judge Mitchell
held that this scroll on a judgment note
was not a seal, and the note being without
a seal is invalid. As legal documents ol
many kinds are attested in this way the
lawyers are wondering what the limit of
the mischief would be if people would deny
the validity of the documents-

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES
A man named l>»vin drove, of Fairfield
township, Crawford county was one day.
last week, taken to the Hospital lor the
Insane. He wi? -honting and greatly ex
cited. having become in-ane from attend
i ing the meeting- of the revivalist* known
a- the Holy Rollers. It require* a strong,
well anchored mind to ride the -tormy
• waves of the Holy Holler-.
The two conferences of the Pennsylvania
Evangelical Church met at Allentown, last
Thursday, and Bishop Bowman was kept
out of Kbenezer church by policemen.
Tie Delamater depositors have accepted
the half-dollar compromise. payable within
two years from the first of nest May.
This is literally the choice of half a loaf as
being better than no bread at all.
Judge Mayer, of Clinton county. Pa .
ha- reftsed to grant a license to a woman.
He says that women have no business be
hind the bar dealing out liquor to men.
and that*running saloons is not their mis
sion.
The latest sensation from Erie county is
to the effect that an entirely new insect
has made its appearance there. It is at
work destroying the apple trees. It is de
scribed as "a peculiar white lurry bug."
A bug that works on trees in January and
February is certainly "peculiar." We may
next expect to get word from the Erie liar
that a peculiar furry bug is destroying the
ice that has recently been housed in that
locality.
At Philadelphia last Saturday, an old
man named became insane on re
ligion, and tried to crucify himself.
Dispatches from New Castle, last week
stated that the bribery case would be call
ed up again in Court there this week,
though we have noticed on decision of the
Supreme Court in the cases now pending,
It was also charged that Sec'y Liken of the
Kepublican Co, committee would be charg
ed with misusing campaign funds
The Kepublican Committee of Lawrence
county met last Saturday and filed Satur
day, April li, as the date for the primary
elections. A Sheriff, Associate Judge and
District Attorney are to be chosen. Few
candidates are yet annnounced, but a large
numlter will enter the lists for Sheriff.
The adjustment of accounts was deferred
for two weeks.
The tax-collector of Derry. Pa., worried
over his accounts, and then went and
drowned himself.

A New Roller Mill in Butler.
I wish to inform my friends and
patroos in Butler county that I now
have my new wbeat-flour mill iD full
operation. It has just been completed
by the Edward P. Allis Co.. of Mil
waukee, Wis.,and the work was done
under the supervision of Mr. S. J.
Bollinger, one of their most able fore
men.
The machinery was all shipped
from Milwaukee, and the old
machinery of the mill was entirely
taken out and the new substituted,
I now have a complete mill, and I
can give the people of Butler and
vicinity a brand of flour, manufac
tured at home and of Butler county
wheat, that will stand any test, and
compare with any that is shipped to
our town.
I am able to do what I say and all
I ask of you is to give my flour a fair
trial.
I also manufacture the best of
corn-meal, rye-flour and buckwheat
flour, and hoping to receive a share of
your trade, I am, Most Respectfully,

The Mehlin Grand.
At a grand concert given by the
leading musical club of Norwich,
Coon , an instrument was used which
seenred the following notice from the
Norwich Morning Bulletin. After
a lengthy notice of the concert
proper, it says:
"No musician present could have
failed to be interested in the piano
used during the concert, a Meblin
Grand, the first of that style ever
heard in this city. It was a magnifi
cent ebonized instrument, of flexible
action, possessing a clear, singing
tone, eminently adapting it to con
cert work. Its delicate, pliable,
elastic touch, and really remarkable
volume made it a delight to all
listeners. The instrument was
selected by Mr. Theo. R. Yeerington
as especially fitted to meet the de
mands of the Orpheus Club on this
particular occasion."
This gennine recommendation
clearly shows the impression made
by this celebrated instrument. It
stands easily in the front rank. The
agency for Butler County is held by
Miss McKeever, of No. 119 West
Jefferson St., who carries also a large
stock of the leading makes of organs,
banjos, guitars, etc. She has just
unpacked a fine Mehlin Grand, and
a»ks the public to call and inspect it.
To the Farmers of Butler and
Vicinity.
I now have my new roller flour
mill completed and in full operation,
and will say that I can make you a
good flour and one that will give you
entire satisfaction.
You can get your grist home with
you, at once,and all work warranted.
1 also manufacture rye-flour, buck
wheat-flour, corn-meal and chop.
Please give my new mill a trial
and oblige,
Yours, most respectfully,
GEORGE WALTEB.
