Butler needs a building for a High School— a building that will be a credit and an ornament to the town, and be fully equipped with all the paraphernalia neces sary for giving our young folk* as good an education ss they need have, and it should have a laboratory, library, auditorium, etc. Th» School Board of Butler would be de ligKeil to build and equip it, but the popu lation of the town and number of scholars has increased so rapidly that all the means at their disposal have been expended in providing tho facilities for the public schools. The limit of indebtedness allowed by law for new buildings has been reached, and though more rooms and bet ter facilities are needed they find them* selves unable to provide them. At the meeting of the Board last Thurs day evening the matter was discussed, ond a committee was appointed to ascertain the sentiment of our citizens in this matter and see whether a few of our more liberal and enterprising men and women of means would be witling to assist the Board in providing the town with a suitable High School bnilding. Blened will be the name or names of sueh persons—not in scripture, but in the hearts of the people of Butler—who will materially assist in the erection of such a building, and their names will be cut deep in the stones thereof, and applied to the different departments of the institution. Therefore, oh men and women of means, be not backward in coming forward Oil Notes. The Greenlee & Forst well was agitated Again last Monday and went from 300 to 600 bbls au hoar.

The new Board of Health met with the Council, Tuesday evening and reported that they had met and organized by elect ing David Cupps. President, and Edward Colbert. Secretary, but would take no fur ther action until they were informed of the extent of the support they could expect from the Council, Mr. Kiddle was their spokesman and he referred to the pro visions of the act of 1851, and thought there was'no authority in the hands of the Board of Health of a borough chartered previous to the passage of that act, except ing what came through the Town Council. He said the Board was ready to assume any duties defined to them by the Council, provided the Council would sustain them by carrying out their recommendations. Mr. Perrine thought the Council would be unanimous in sustaining any reeomend ations ma le by the Board for improving i the sanitary condition to the town. Mr. Forquer, who presided, endorsed Mr. Perrine's remarks and thought the Council would proaiplv abate all nuisances report ed by the Board. Mr. McJuukin presented the petition of the property owner* of E. Wayne St. ask ing lor paving,and the matter was referred to the Street Committee. A warrant for $13,000 was ordered drawn in favor of John Osborne on Main St. paving; also and to Long <i Doyle for $2,000 on E. Jefferson St. paving; also one to E. F. Hughes for $3,207.56 in full of balance on 15-inch sewer. Mr. Vogel of the Fire Com. reported in favor of furnishing the Campbell and Good Will Co s with 250 feet more of hose, also in favor of fire bells at W. P. depot and west end of Jefferson St.; and for the lias Com. reported t!:at some twenty new street lights were needed, and this report brought up the condition of the general fund of the borough. The Council can raise money up to certain limit, for sewer ing and paving by the sale of bonds, but the general expenses must be kept within the tax collected for general purposes; and it was stated that the treasury is now empty, with quite a number, of unpaid warrants in circulation. The Council has no authority to incur debt for general purposes, and so the stieet lamp and the new hose matters were held over, and an effort was made to have the borough policemen discharged, and some bills were held over till next meeting. The borough expense has been running from SISOO to S2OOO a month during the past summer, and this will be curtailed as much as possible. A petition for a board walk on E. Clay St. along the property of the English Lutheran Church was referred to the Side walk Committee; and a special committee was given the power to arrange with the widow Gifford and Mr. McClain of the South Side for the raising of their build ings.
