employer's name, business and address
printed on his back.
—Allen's show closed the season hero
last Satudray, and will winter on the Hert
wick farm near East Brady.
—Good water is very scarce at present.
Onr reservoir water comes as noar being
poison as it could well be, and escapo be
ing labeled.
—The death of Montgomery J. Sloan at
Warren Insane Asylnm causes the Parker
Phoenix to style that institution a " luman
butcher shop."
—lt is a well-established principle of
economics that the young man who would
rise with the sun should not stay upi later
than 10 o'clock with the daughter.— Ex.
—The Pittsburg Exposition building was
so crowded last Saturday that it was im
possible to see the exhibits. Ton went in
one end of the building and got pushed out
the other.
—A well meaning exchange says the
safest plan when a stranger wants yon to
sign a paper, is tc consider the matter for
three days,|and then kick the stranger off
the premises.
—Money is scarce in Butler">t present,
as you can easily prove by sending or pre
senting bills, and a sure cure for any blue
ness caused by an empty pocket is said to
bo a drive over the newly paved streets.
—The latest thing in the line of intellec
tual amusements is called the "potato
walk." One of the requirements of the
amusement is to scoop a big potato up
from the floor with a very small spoon and
carry it the length of the room. It looks
easy, but it isn't. Winners, of course, get
prizes.
—We direct the attention of our farmer
readers to the card of the Country Gentle
man, the most complete and valuable agri
cultural weekly published in tho country.
It costs more than tho other agricultural
papers, but it is worth the money asked.
Single subscriptions are $2.50, but wc have
made arrangements for securing it for our
readers at club rates.
—A Beaver Fall paper "hurrahs for
Butler county" because a prominent resi
dent of Evans City, a regular philanthro
pist and church builder, came to Beaver
plls Friday and got fuller than a big
red wagon. Officer Kea picked hiru up and
lodged him over night. In the morning
when it was learned who ho was, he was
instantly released with profuse apologies
and sent back to the soap mines and oil
wells.
—The W. C- T. U. had prayor meeting
in the jail last Sunday afternoon, as usual,
and after the incetiug and while the prison
ers were handing out the chairs James
Lawton, in jail ou a charge of larceny,
dodged past the Sheriff and broke for lib
erty. He ran down past the livery stable
and a crowd took after biui, au 1 ha outran
them all excepting Paul Cronenwett an 1
W. O. Sutton, who caught .him near tho
foot of W. Cunningham St.
—A telegram from Chicago dated last
Friday stated thst the Keystone Bridge Co,
of Pittsburg had agreed to build a tower
for the World's Fair 1120 feet high for a
million and a half of dollars, and that a
stock company would be organized that
would raise that amount. The proposed
tower is to bo 440 feet square at the foun
dation, the threo landings are
400 and 1000 feet from the ground, and the
first will be built to accommodate from
four to five thousand people. The three
landings will contain restaurants in which
from six to eight thousand people can bo
seated, with dancing halls, booths for the
sale of curios, etc.
—The red or pine squirrel (not the chip
munk) Is the enemy and destroyer of the
larger and more harmless squirrels; tbe
black and grey. The New Wilmington
Globe calls for a general crusade against
him. A well known sportsman has oalled
his attention to the ravages of the animal.
In a hunt through the country he found the
grey and black squirrels very scarce and
the impudent "piney" correspondingly
plentiful. He states that the farmers are
declaring that the pine squirrel uust go.
It is not only very destructive on cereals,
bnt It is an Ishmaelite among the animal
creation —what the sparrow is among the
song birds. It not only destroys the
yonng of other squirrels but devours the
eggs of song birds, quail, grouse, and in
fact of all birds.
—The Council of Bntler gets a puff from
a Kittanning paper, as follows. We see
tbat the citizens of Butler are being trou b
led with the pig-pen nuisance the same as
Kittanning. The Butler Council, however
instead of waiting till the citizens m ake
complaint before a aquire against their
neighbors, thereby cause person s who
bad heretofore been the best of friends to
become enemies, made a special committee
of the chief of Police and Uigh Constablo
and ordered them to seo that the nuisance
ii abated. This is right. If people arc
not oboying the borough ordinances, it i«
the place of the borough authorities to see
that the laws are enforced by Jofficers who
are paid purpose.
--We have plenty of apples and an
abundanoe of buckwheat chaff in this coun
ty. It is said that apples for winter use
that are packed in buckwheat chaff keep
longer, do not lose their flavor, are less in
clined to rot, and if a few are affected the
chaff absorbs tho juioes, which prevents
them from atlecting the rest. They may
bo packed direct from the tree when pick
ed. This saves cost, but it is a better way
to put them under oovor in a cool place
until there is danger of freezing. Begin
with enough chaff to cover the bottom of
the barrel. Place on this apples enough
to form a layer they will work Jietter.
Enough to covev tho apples lightly and
prevent their touching eaoh other is all
that required. It should not be lice and
dusty nor too coarse. Press each layer
moderately with tho hands.
—On Sunday of this week a certain man
called upon a oertain physician of this
town and told him that he had sickness in
his family and needed camphor, and had
gum-camphor in the house, but needed
alcohol to mis with it. Tbe man was sober
and the physician believed him and wrote
the prescription for him. Then the man
took the prescription to a drug store, and
when the clerk looked at him and hesitat
ed he hurried him up, and said hi* wife
had just been confined and that the alcohol
was needed immediately. Of course the
clerk hurried. Then that man and two
others, both of whom are said to have had
liquor in their clothes, wandered down the
railroad track, aud two of them be*t,mo so
intoxicated that they lay down—one on
the track and one alongside it—and went
to sleep. Tho other man came back to
town. By aud by a train came rushing
along and crushed tbe life ont of tho rpan
cn the and hie body wa, taken to tho
undertaker's and then to his hpnic; and
his wife, v;ho had a blackened eye and was
parrying a month-old baby, did not exhibit
any symptoms of excruciating sorrow.
When the man who had secured tho pint
of alcohol was awakened from his drunken
sleep he could not tell which of bis two
companions bad come to his end so sud
nenly and <*nes«ed the on* 1 , uui,
uess<iay htftnoQ lo hiake trouiily for the
physician by going before the Burgess and
swearing that ho was intoxicated wheu
the physician wrote tho prescriptljn for
him.
Unsavory Smells.
At tbe meeting of the Council Tuesday
night the Board of Health, through its
Secretary, E. D. Colbert, reported that the
water closets in the house of Mr. Huff ar.d
on the property of Jno. Graham were
draining into the ditch running through
their properties to the annoyance and det
riment of their neighbors; also that the
run crossing Washington St. at Miller's
planing mill is full of offensive matter;
also that the alley west of Maiu St. from
the Reed and Wick stables to this same
run is in unhealthy condition; also that
the alley back of the Aiken & Campbell
store and Weitzel property is in very bad
condition, also that the yards and closets
of the Steen House, near P. <fc W. depot,
are in bad condition, also that the drain
from house- of Los. Brackney on South
Side empties into a hole in the alley and
alley is full of compost heaps; also that
the yard of Jos. Moore on Hickory St. is
full of garbage and decaying matter, also
that there is an overflowing closet on the
Stewart property on Ziegler Ave. and the
yard of same is in very bad condition, also
that there is stagnant drainage on Zieg
ler Ave. near Peter Marshall's; also that
alley running parallel with Lincoln Ave.
is full of garbage and imperfectly drained
and that Short Ave. is in same condition
as regards drainage; also that the street
rnnning north from Lincoln Ave. is in an
unhealthy condition and thai the alley be
tween Lincoln and Maple Ave's has over
flowing water closets along it: also (bat
the yards west and south of the plate glass
works are full of filth anil garbage, and
water closets full and overflowing; and
that the condition of these places is such
that they recommend prompt and imme
diate action lor temporary relief and a!. ; o
the construction of a main sewer into
this district as the only means of perma
nent relief; also that the ordinance regu
lating the throwing of vegetable matter on
tbe streets and alleys be enforced; also
that the closet on the Berg property at
corner of Main and Cunningham Sts. is
annoying the neighbors.
The report is signed by 1). Cnpps, Pres
ident, and E. D. Colbert, Sec'y of the
Board, aDd both stated that it is only a
partial report, that it takes time to get
over the town, and that they intended to
report everything that annoyed anybody.
A niolion to receive the report and
carry out its recommendations brought up
the question of extending the 15-iuch
sewer from the Centre Ave. bridge around
the creek to the vicinity of the AVest Penn
depot for the accomodation and benefit of
the people living north of it, and also
around to a point below the plate glass
works for tho accomodation and benefit ot
that part of the South Side that cannot be
drained by the Centre Ave. sewer.
The Council is almost unanimously in
favor of HO doing, but where" is the money
to come from? —the sale of bonds has been
very slow of late and the general fund is
being absorbed for .general purposes. The
matter was discussed and referred to the
Engineer and Sewer Com.
The Boro Treasurer was directed to pay
Mr. Osborne any more money received on
the Main St. paving; a conditional war
rant, drawn in favor ol Mi'. Uughes
was changed to SO days; Mr. Doyle was
also present wanting money but the mat
ter was held over. The brick for W. Jef
ferson St. are arriving and are being piled
along tho street; they are from Franklin,
Pa.
A renewal of the motion to require the
English Lutheran congregation to bnild a
boardwalk along their Clay St. frontage
brought on a discussion as to the necessity
of the walk, signatures to petition, etc.,
and the motion us JoiuiUcd —4 to 3—on
rising yoiq,
A petition for a change in the grade of
the street fronting the Araiory bnilding,
was referred to tho Engineer and Street
Paving Committee.
Solicitor Campbell presented the Assess
ment Ordinance for E. Jefferson St. and it
was passed, but he afterwards discovered
that he had omitted the Treasurer's per
centage and withdrew it, and it will have
to be re-written and re-cuacted. Mr.
Vogel objected to the big culvert being
included in the Assessment, but as it
makes but two cents a foot front difference,
the Council did not sustaiu his "kick."
Mr. Cupps presented a bill for $250 for
building crossings and culverts on the
South Side, ordered by the member of the
Street Committee for that ward, and it was
allowed, but some of the other members of
the samo Committee did not approve of
one member ordering work done without
first consulting tho others, while money is
scarce.
Mr. Stamm's motion to lease an acre or
two below town for a "dumping place" was
referred to a Committee consisting of
Messrs Stamm, McJunkin and Perrine; the
Boro. solicitor was directed to discontinue
the lioward St. suit; a Committee consist
ing of Messrs Schenck and Forqnor was
appointed to settle with Mr. McClain; Mr.
Slater was notified that his building at
junction of Centre ave. and S. McKean St.
encroaches upon both streets and the Boro.
solicitor will proceed against bin if ho per
sists in building upon the street; a water
plug discussion ended in being referred to
tho tiro Committee, and council adjourned.

Monday.
What camo near being a serious acci
dont happened on the I'. A - W. just oppo
site Walter's mill, Saturday evening. Tbo
evening train in was late, and was run
ning fast, and whilo going over the S
curve opposito the mill, the engine and
three coaches left tbe rails and rattled over
the ties for several rods. That they kept
on tbe the ties was very lucky,for the bank
there is steep and high. The whole track
was displaced several inches bv the acci
dent. The railroad employees claim that
a plank had been placed across the track,
and that it caused the accident, but the
track thera was not in a safe condition.

Death of Peter Kramer.
Ei-Sheriff Peter Kramer died at his res
idence on W. JclTerson street, Bntler,
Tuesday night, from the effects of a kick
by a horse received Sunday.
Oa Sonday afternoon he had his wife
and daughter out riding. and ho drove a
little 3-year-old horse that he purchased
some weeks before from Allen l!arr of
Prospect. It is a very gentle animal and
had never before been known to lift a foot,
but that evening, after supper, as Kramer
passed its stall he patted it oa the hip
without first -peaking, and it kicked out
wildly. Its hock struck him iu the
bowels, and he cried ont. The boys ran
back and found liitn standing in .1 stooping
position in the stable and in great pain,
and they helped him hr.me and called phy
sicians who found it necessary to put him
under the influence of morphine, and he

It has come to my knowledge that
a certain merchant is trying to mis
lead the public.
When people ask for LOUIS
TRAXLER'S store this unprinci
pled man informs them his is the store
they are looking for, and also com
pels his clerk* to mislead the public,
when inquiring for my new store.
A good many people have been
humbugged in this manner, and only
found out when too late that they
have been trading in the wrong store
Please take notice that I, LOUIS
TItAXLEIt, have only one store,
located next door to the Butler Sav
ings Bank. I am not interested in
nor connected with any other store.
By buying of me you have the ad
vantage to Belect from an entire new
stock of Dry Goods, Cloaks, Millin
ery, Hosiery, Underwear and Fancy
Uoods at lower prices than they
charge for old stock elsewhere.
Yours Truly,
LOUIS TRAXLER,
