Never in all its history has the odiou thing ever received such an amount of antagonism or brought on such a bloodless war. If nothing elso could be urged against it, tho utter discomfort and hideousness of the forward-tilting and backward-pitching case oupht to kill it forevor. In is obviously disadvantageous, so utterly unbecoming. It puts women at tbo mercy of the four winds of heaven. It makes them ridiculous, for it is absolutely grotesque. It is dangerous, senseless, and immodest. —Tho publishing of the long list of wed ding presents ia not "do rigger'' or "en rigglc," as wo say in French, but some people still have a vulgar and unhealthy desire to see the inventory in print. This style of listing eifts of all sorts,a la vendue bill, was in tho mind ol a:, exchange when it gaev tho following: From father and mother of bride, one Jersey calf; from bride to groom.one hair wreath made lrom hair of tho entiri^family,and also six white shirts; from brother Elias, one book of poems, one dream book, one polite letter writer and a dog; from Aunt Harriot, six hens and a rooster, also a jar of tomato catsup; from Cousin Sarah, ono poem made by herself on tho bride and bride groom, 15 verses in all. —Hon.

The Butler men asked for an appropriation of $12,500; which was tho, amount secured for tho State Hospital at Xew Castle. They were treated very conrteonsly by tho Committee, and they think they made their point. Butler is now a railroad centre; accidents are con tinually happening to men in the connty who can ill afford tho expense so incurred, and therefore a State Hospital is as badly needed hero, as at any of the points out side of the two largo cities that have se cured them. —Tho fatal horse disease known as glanders is spreading in Indiana county,but is being so carefully watched and guarded that no particular alarm need be entertain ed. Under the direction of Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture Edge every known precaution is being taken to prevent the spread of tho disease. Acting under tho Secretary's authority, Dr. W. T.

Such an application irarks an ex ception to a declaration made by Judge White in court a couple of years ago. when he said that tho color of a black man was sufficient evidence of his being a citizen of the Fnited State*. The emancipation of married women : n this state i- nearly complete. Judge Ar nold decides that a married women who gave a note in payment of her husband's debts is responsible therefor. Married women were at one time under an actual, as well as a legal, disability to make contracts. The legislature has been gradually extending their privileges as well as their legal responsibility,until now they aro almost on the same plane as mar ried men. Judge MeGlung, of Allegheny Co., late ly handed down an opinion on tho rules for judgment on a number of cases brought to recover the penalty for selling olemar garine, for want ol sufficient affidavit of defense. lie decided that the penalty im posed by the olemargarine act is for selling or offering for salo of the article with the intent to sell the same as an article of food and not for the simple offering lor sale, Ac. In none of the cases does the statement of claim contain an averagement that tho olemargarine was sold, «tc., as an article of food Hence tho penalty does not fol low and the statement would not support a judgment. The rules were discharged. Miss 11. A. Critchlow Exr'x. has brought suit in assumpsit vs L. F. Critchlow. Letters of Artm'r. were granted to W. V. Seaman and W. J.

VT. ; \~a.. last Friday evening. A strong fllow of gas had been struck in the limestone, just above the "Big Ingen sand, and for safety they moved the boiler back 700 feet. An explosion occured and the men though seriously burned crawled away from the burning rig. Sistersville is located on the West Virginia side ol the Ohio river about fifty miles below Wheeling: but the well that Latchaw A Co. drilled there is on the opposite side of the river, the Ohio side. James M. Green, of Callery, this county, fell from a derrick ' McDonald a lew days 1 igo and was fatally injured. He was taken to the West Penn Hospital in Pitts burg, and died the second day after the accident. Ho fell seventy feet. His wife deserted him some years ago; he was ap plying for a divorce; and the hearing be fore the Commissioner was to have taken place in Butler last Saturday. He was buried at Evans City. Sunday, by the Knights of Pythias of which order he w.is a member. Nobody about here knows where his home was before he began fol l.w.ug iuu oil developments. His wife is said to be from Ohio. Miss Amelia Liebler, a daughter of Martin Liebler. of Herman, was seriously burned, last Thursday morning, by her clothes taking fire while she was passing a grate.

Benton, of Mercer St., met with a painful accident at Mansfield, six miles below Pittsburg, recently. He is a car penter and was putting on hinges for the cellar door of a honse he was working on. in a stone jam with melted lead, and in one of the holes somo dampness had ac cumulated and the lead was blown up in his face, burning his eyes and face very painfully. A three-year-old child of Robert Bupp. of Prospect, was fatally burned on last Thursday morning, and died Friday. It's parents were not in the honse at the time, but his father on hearing it's streams hastened to it, and found it's clothing in flames. Medical aid was got but of no avail. It is supposed that it's clothing cought fire from the grate. John Congan was killed on the P. A W. U. K. near Herr's Island, a few days ago. Charles Maskrey, of the firm of Maskrey Bros., saw mill men, of Mercer Co., was instantly killed while working at the mill located on the farm of William Harkness. The particulars as wo learn them are about as follows: The log they were sawing in to boards had a rotten place in it, and when the saw had passed through the de fective portion the board was caught by the wind and blown around against the saw, which hurled it through the air with tremendous force. In its flight it struck Maskrey in the forehead, crashing his skull and forcing his head back so violently as to break his neck, killing him instantly. Oil Notes.

This is a question which has been asked over and over again this week, and will be answered to the satisfaction of everybody. Ole Oleson is not a man, but a play. Not a Swedish play, but a roaring comedy, with a Swedish character as the central figure. This is the first play of its kind ever produced, and really one of the genu ine novelties of the season. Americans find a fund of humor in the Swedish char acter, and the play is said to draw heavi ly on this fund. "Ole Olson" is a comedy, pure and simple in every sense of the word andjis much different from most so-called comedies in that it has a well defined plot that carries the story through to a success ful and reasonable ending. Ole is repre sented to be a young man just over from Sweden, who naturally finds it very diffi cult to master the idiom of the English languago and gets in aIL sorts of ludicrous scrapes by reason of bis inability to catch on. He, however, is not here very long, or, as he himself puts it, just "wan yare, femf inont and sax woke, before he is one of the boys in every sense of the word. In every large city where "Ole Olson has been presented, it has met with phenome nal success; and the novelty of the charac ter has been one of the hits of the season. The cast is an unusually strong one, and includes such artists as Ben Hendricks, who for the past three seasons has shared the honors with Minnie Palmer in "My Sweetheart. Mr. Hendricks is a hand some and graceful young actor, and he is said to speak Ole's lines yvith a dialect which is almost perfect. Lottie Williams plays a sancy, sparkling soubrette part in a very winsome way, and is a charming feature of the entertainment. Miss St George Hussev,a veritable Kilkenny virago and her antics, songs and dances, evoke screams of laughter. With such a novelty in comedy and such a strong cast, includ ing the National Swedish Lady Quartette, from Slackholm,wo look to see "Ole Olson" play to the capacity of the theater. —ls marriage failuare, is a ques tion that is often discussed.

The specific and infallible symptoms of cerebro spinal meningitis of which the Hon. W. J. Harshaw's son died, were mistaken for the symptoms of smull pox. The President of the College, believing that his past faithfulness to the interests of the patrons of the College, merits their confidence in hiswtrd and honor, publishes this card. This statement is made after consultation with many of the leading physicians of Mercer and Butler counties. ISAAC C. KKTLER, President. A CYCLONE. In the clothing trade.
