A sad accident happened in Middlesex

death ot Clifford Harbison, a son of Wil
liam L Harbison.
While he was engaged about tho stable
that day, a sprightly horse kicked the
fork he was ui-ing, the end of which struck
his stomach with such force as to rupture a
blood-vessel and cause his death next day. '
He was a very promising young, man,
and his death is greatly regretted by all
who knew him

by a threshing machine, Tuesday, but we.

A very distressing accident happened on
a steep grade on Wylie Ave.. Pittsburg,

in their way'down town to attend a politi '
cal meeting; the noise made by their bauds
drowned that made by a cable car coming
down the bill; the brakes would not work
and the car crasheJ into the crowd, killing
one young man and pinning another under
the wheels. Then a second car appeared
on the scene; it, too, could not 'ue stopped,
and it crashed into the first car and killed
the man under it.
Calvin W. McCoo!, of Sorubgrass town
ship. Venango oounty, and who was well
known in Allegheny township,this county,

Ohio, a few days ago. He had finished
cleaning out a well, and he and a teain.-ter
were taking down the "and line. Mr. Mc-
Cool was on top of the belt house and was
pulling the line across to the teamster,
when in some manner it became "ntacgled
about the bandwheel crank and Mr. Me
Cool wa-= thrown off. When he realized he
was falling h-3 caught the telegraph cord
which pulled the enght* throttle wide open
and the engine staK«4 full speed the
wheel making 120 retentions a minute.
Mr. McCool was caught by the crank and
whirled around and wedged in between the
crauk and samson post. The engine was
stopped as soon as possible and the injured
man removed from his awful position. He
lived about one-half hour after, but ho did
not return to consciousness. The physi
cian who examined him said his limbs
were broken about every four inches to the
hips. One foot was torn off at the aukle
and one arm aud hand broken, besides the
back of his head was crushed in. His
features wore not injured.

THE BUTLER
ROLLER MILLS
Hereafter will be doing business un
der the name of
Geo. Walter A Sons.
We can say to our patrons that the
grinding done by us will be in the
best manner that good machinery
and practical milling can do it, as we
have in our employ one of the bef-t
practical millers in the State of Penn
sylvania. We can say without
(ear of contradiction that we are
turning out the best straight grade of
wheat flour in the county. We
think it an advantage to the farmer
to get his grinding done at our mill
for these reasons:
FIRST—We make as good wheat
Hour as can be manufactured,and
the farmers get tho same flour in
exchange as the millionaire
would, were we blessed with
them in this neighborhood.
SECOND—We can do your chop
ping for you, so that you are not
compelled to sell your grain at
low prices and buy your chop.
TIIIKD—We can make the best
buckwheat flour ever manufac
tured in the county, as we have
just completed arranging the
new machinery for same, and it
works like a charm.
FOURTH—Wc can make you rye
flour if you desire it. Our rye
flour always briugs the highest
price in Pittsburg, &c.
FIFTH—We make as good a corn
meal as there is in the market.
SINTII—Our Graham flour cannot
be excelled. We manufacture
every article that is in our line
of business, and with the latest
improved machinery, and best
practical skill.
The farmer will readily see that it
is more profitable to him to patronize
a mill where he can get all his differ
ent kinds of grain ground than to sell
his grain and buy his flour and feed.
We don't believe in misrepresenting
goods to the public, therefore do not
1 put the same kind of flour in four or
five different brands of sacks. Wo
make a straight grade of flour. The
brand is WHITE ROSE, the earne
as giveu to the farmer in exchange.
We also make the ION A PATENT,
1 which is a high grade of flour and
stands with the best patents in the
market It is manufactured out of
red winter wheat, blended with the
best brand of Minnesota patenr which
gives it a superior quality. These
brands of Uour and all kinds of mill
feed sold by us at the lowest prices.
Wc are also in the market for wheat,
rye and buckwheat and will pay the
highest prices for the same
