—"Ah, Spring is here —that is to say,
It was here-jost the other day;
But it is gone—that is to say.
It had gone just the other day,
And ere the poem may appear,
Spring is—was—has been—may be—here.'
—Dog* are beginning to display their
hot weather pants.
—A lump of sugar saturated with vinegar
will cure hiccongbs.
—Man wants but little here below, and

—. ,iank God, Spring house cleaning and

—The peach, cherry and apple trees
w re in bloom at the same time this year.
The grain is looking splendid, also tbo
frui'. Barring a late frost this will be a
.if abundance.
—Some men never seem to get a clear
understanding of the law until they study
it in the seclusion of a penitentiary.
A story is told of •* conductor who
seized his wife's nose in his sleep and rang
up three fares upon it beiore her shrieks
awoke him.
—Some slight changes has been made in
the P. <fc. W. time table. The morning
express to Allegheny now leaves Butler
at 8:10; and tbe evening mail at 5:55.
—lt is said that one main reason why
some people would like to go to heavon is
because they have heard that tho streets
there are paved with gold.
—lf that Bridge Committee is determin
ed to build a bridge we suggest that it be
built over Sullivan Run at West end of
Penn St. where the street is flooded for
rods at every high water.
—They drove right on. Two men driv
ing down Vain street at a rapid gait last
Friday night, ran into a buggy and rent it
asunder; bnt did not see St to stop and see
who.se property they had injured.
—About a hundred of the fastest wheel
men in the country are now engaged in a

—The new law does not require Assess
ors to make alphabetical lists, bnt most of
them are so doing. The lists should be
completed as soon as possible and hung
at the window for general inspection be
fore the 61st and 60th days previous to
the election come around.
—Some of the papers are disposed to
oriticise the fact that Mrs. Alice Shaw
recently whistled at a sacret concert in
Boston. For ourselves, we can't see why
whistling music through the mouth is any
less sacred than singing through the nose.
—Franklin Xew*.
—The time has come, says the Bradford
Era, when the man who punctuates his
conversation with the excruciating "see 1"
should be taken, see,down the silent, cold,
running creek, see, somewhere below the
the bridge, see, and dropped iu until he
would never again, see, prove his idiocy
with his execrable use of the word.
—A man drove by last Sunday followed
by two dogs—a black and a yellow one.
The dogs spied a yellow cat and took after
it; the cat sought safety iu a street*sewer
and the dogs followed, one going in each
end. The cat slipped past the yellow dog and
found safety under a boardwalk, and the
.black dog stock in the sewer. Now
which dog was the joke onf
—The sixteen members of the graduat
ing class of the High School "did them
selves proud" in every particular; their
stage was handsomely set and tastifully
decorated; Carl Barclay's salutatory was
well worded and well delivered; Linnie
Bonner's class incidents and personalities
in rhyme, and those of Florence Fisher iu
prose were as cute as could be; Don Find
ley is a true prophet; Leah Richev and
Chas. McElvain did nobly; Sallie Fleeger's
essay on the poet Payne jras splendid;
Chas. Fisher is the making of a statesman,
and Anna Cronenwett is a born Elocution
ist. If it were not for these graduating ex
ercises the people of Butler would be una
ware of the mountains of virtue and talent
that exist in our midst.
At the meeting of Council Tuesday
night more lights were petitioned for;
streets in different parts of the town have
been reported as impassable; more water
plugs for lire protection are needed in
several quarters, and the reason these
necessary improvements are not made is
because there is no money in the treasury.
At every moeting ot the town Council
for some time past things that ought to
have been done have been delayed on
account of lack of funds. The receipts of
the general fund for this year are estimat
ed at from ten to eleven thousand; the
lighting of the town which has already
been contracted for, will, when all reason,
able additions are made, probably cost the
town nearly or fully $5,000 a- year; the
water costs $1,500, and it will take fully
as much more to cover the salaries of the
Bugiueer, Counsel and Clerk. That makes
SB,OOO, loaves but from $2,000 to $3,000
for repairing the streets, fire plugs, cul
verts and the innumerable reparing and
improvements called for each year. And
yet, with this state of affairs existing a
measure to build a bridge across the gully
in Boyd's woods from the head of Brown
avenue to the end of Glenn avenue was
put through Council Tuesday night. The
bridge is to be of trestle work, 135 feet
long .with a sixteeu foot roadway, which,
with abutments and approaches will prob
ably cost a thousand dollars. The location
is a beautiful one for a rustic bridge, but
it has been there a long time aud there is
no danger of it running away, and to tako
from our scanty funds at present for a
bridge over it, and thus sacrifice necessary
improvements would, in our opinion, le
an imposition upon the rest of the town.
The matter was referred to a committee
witji power to act, and they should make
haste slowly.
Don't forget as on Iloßiery and
Glores, we always have the- best at
lowest prices

immediately; Dr. Balphcomplainsd of the
iiltliy condition of a neighboring lot, and
John 11. Heiber asked for a grade for Mer
cer St. and the Engineer was instructed
to make a profile of the street.
Tbe ordinances opening Kast and West
Clay streets were passed and the Conrt
will be asked to appoint viewers, etc.
A resolution was passed increasing tbe
borough indebetedne.-s by s<B,ooo for tbe
building of tbe two main sewers up the
creek from tho Centre avenue bridge to
the W"est Penn depot on one side and
Plato Glass works on the other. There
will be four bonds of $2,000 each, bearing
fonr per cent, interest, and payable in
"o*3, '9". '9B jnd "99, from tbe 0 mill tax.
A petition for a sewer on Brady street
was referred to the Sewer Committee and
Engineer. An assignment of Long «V
Doyle to tbe Franklin Brick Co. was paid
in orders, SSOO now. and the balance,
something over SI,OOO, in 00 days; An
assignment of same tirm to Jacob Sbeasley
was filed; the Matthew Brown cow matter
remains unsettled; tbe people of Polk St.
want an electric light; Smith, Porter &
Co. asked for money; the petition of A
Kummer and A Blymiller to allow their
slaughter houses to remain where they are
was refused; some sidewalks on Chestnut
street will be advertised; a livery stable
sewer nuisance was ordered abated; a
complaint regarding a sidewalk was re
erred to the Sidewalk Committee and the
clerk was directed to notify several people
on X. Main street, S. McKean, Wayne and
other streets to change their sidewalks to
grade immediately.
Tbe Secretary was directed to notify
Long & Doyle to complete their con
tract immediately or tbe Council will do it
and deduct from tbe contract price.
The proposed sewers fo accommodate
the people of South Main street were dis
cussed, and referred to the Sewer Commit
tee and Engineer with power to act.
The ladies of tho South Side propose
erecting a water lountain on Centre Ave.,
and tne matter was referred to tho Sewer
Committee and Mr. Harper.
The Borough Engineer presented his
plans for the bridge over the gully on the
Boyd property on the South Side by which
it is proposed to connect the west end of
Glenn avenue with tbe head of
Brown Ave. The plan is fur a trestle-work
bridge 135 feet long, 20 feet high at tbe
highest point or an average of about 15
feet; 22 feet wide at the ground, 1G foot
roadway, and 2" stone Inundations lor up
right; and the Engineer estimated the cost
of the woodwork at $l5O and the stone
foundations at SSO, with nothing said of
abutments, or filling Mr Ziegler thinks
tbe job will cost double tbe estimate anil
spoke against it as being unnecessary and
one that will further deplete an already
depleted treasuery. He also said that
tho South Side had already received by
one-third more than its share of
improvements. Mr. Harper said the
Eeople of Glenn and Brown Avenues
ad no outlet. Mr. Hite referred to the
almost impassable condition of some of
our streets and thought the money should
be placed there. Mr. Perrine said that he
and Mr. Wheeler had already spent SSOO
ol their own money on Glenn Ave., and
thought the town should help them out on
it, that thoy had paid lor their own water
and sewer facilities over there, that S4OOO
had been appropriated forstreets, etc., and
the matter was referred back to the same
Committee which authorized tho plans be
ing made, with power to act.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
The fish liar can take a hack seat, as the
following from the Bristol Observer will
prove: Charley Dillon, of Bristol, has
a trained "colt" which performs all sorts
of comical tricks. ,One of these tricks of
the colt, which Charley has been fifteen
years trying to break it of, is the habit it
Las of ciimbing the'itiof of the barn and
sliding down on its hannches as if it was a
toboggan slide. Charley thought he would
spoil the colt's fan by driving nails part
way into the shingles bnt the cunning ani
mal found a piece of tin roof up the alley
and used that to sit on when sliding down
the toboggan.
About six years ago Chas. Harrington
was arrested at a lumber camp near Em
lenton, where he was living with a 13-year
old girl named Raver. whom he had per
suaded to leave her home at the village of
Garfield, in Warren county. The girl's
father, Robert Raver, found and reclaim
ed her after she had been gone about a
week. He had Harrington arrested, tried
and convicted on a charge of abduction
and seduction, and Judge Taylor of Ve
nango Cow sent him for a four years' so
journ in the penitentiary. When his term
expired, Harrington went straight to Gar
field. lie went to the Raver residence on
Sunday, when only the two girls were
present, lie subjected them to indigni
ties, flourished a revolver, and swore he
would kill his former girl aud the whtle
family if she did not go with him. When
the father came home ho pretended to
Harrington that everything was all right.
Next day. however, he had Harrington
arrested for threats and carrying conceal
ed weapons, aud in March, 1801, the ac
cused was convicted and sentenced to
fifteen months in the Pea. At that time
Harrington swore he would have revenge
on Raver. His sentenced expired a few
days ag". He once more made straight
for Garfield. About 10 o'clock Thursday
night of last week, he presented nimself at
Raver's house and demanded to see the
girl. Raver was absent in West Virginia,
and only the girl and her brother, Floyd,
aged 14. were at home. They refused to
admit Harrington, who began to batter
down the door. Floyd ran to an adjoin
ing room, got a Winchester rifle, brought
it to the door, and sent a ball through
Harrington's forehead.killing him instant
ly. Harrington retired from futher business,
at the age of 26. A coroner's jury found a
verdict justifying young Raver.
It is said that not many years ago a Du-
Bois woman in buying some old clothes for
the purpose ot making carpet rags, was
horrified to come across the pantaloons in
which her husband had been bnried sev
eral weeks before. She was positive of
their identity for she herself had woven
the cloth anil put in the silk lining on
which she had worked her husband's ini
tals. No investigation was ever made. The
grave remains to-day without a tomb
stone.
At Eric, Sunday, thirty-two houses were

in Jannary last the school board refused to

for a mandamus closing the public schools
lor three weeks.
The Ked Lion sale stables in Pittsburg

Shorthand.
The Butler school of Shorthand and
Typewriting will open its summer term on
Wednesday, the Ist of June, 1892, in room® l
on the second floor of the new Armory
Building. This will give those who attend
the public schools an opportunity to com
plete the full course of three months iu
time for school in the fall.
The session will be from 9 to 12 A. u.
each day except Saturday, and by faithful,
diligent attention and practice during that
time any person with a fair knowledge of
spelling, pronunciation and grammai; can
obtain a thorough mastery of all the
principles of short band, and by practice
become a perfect stenographer.
Shorthand is not one of tho lost arts,
although many think so. II the common
idea was true that a person had to memo
rize a sign for every word in the language
it might well be called so, for no one could
do that. Such is not the case, there
being but forty-five characters used in
shorthand writing, and it is as easily
learned as any of the common branches
taught at school.
In this age of steam and electricity it is
a necessity, and as a study, as a profession,
as an aid to education, as an art which
elevates and dignifies human character is
worthy the careful attention of every
youth, paient and guardian.
Chas. Keade in his work on "Tha Coming
Man" says: "I advise all parents to have
their boys and girls taught Shorthand and
'Typewriting. A shorthand writer who
can Typewrite his notes would be safer
from poverty than a great Greek scholar."
P. T. Barnum, in the Cosmopolitan
saj's: "Every young person of both sexes,
should at least learn Shorthand and Type
writing. 1 cannot conceive that one who
kiiows these two branches thoroughly will
ever need to go hungry in the present
generation, for they have a constantly
widening use."
Chas Sumner: "Shorthand has saved
uie fifteen years of my life."
The system taught is Graham's, the one
I believe to be the best, and that one I
have used in my Court work hero for tho
past five years. Tho Text Book aud
Methods are the very best and latest on
the subject, and Remingtons the machines
used.
TKBMS: Six dollars a month in advance,
which includes everything except blank
paper, and wbeu paid at the end of the
terra S2O. For further information call on

—A boy in Wichita, Kantas, public
school has been suspended for the follow ing
esjay on the subject of "pants." "Pants
are made for men and not men for pants.
Women are made for men and not pants.
When a man pants for a woman and a wo
man pants for a man, they are a pair of
pants. Such pants don't last. Pants are
like molasses —they are thinner in hot
weather and thicker in cold. The man in
the moon changes his pants during the
eclipse. Don't you go to the pantry for
pants: you may be mistaken. Men are
often mistaken in pants. Such mistakes
make breeches of promise. There has
been mnch discussion whether pants are
singular or plural. Seems to us when
men wear pants they are plural and when
they don't wear any pants it is singular.
Men get on a tear in their pants and it is
all right, but when the pants get on a tear
it is all wrong.'*
