LOCAL AND GENERAL.
In Memoriam.
With myrtle and rue their tombs we strew.
And our love with our sorrow is vying,
But o'er their d- ar graves that old Flag
waves .
Which they hallowed forever by dying.
Loath pansiea and roses the soldier re
poses,
Nor dreams of the battle alarm at tho
morn; ,
A Nation is keeping fond watch oer his
sleeping,
And tributes most loving his memory
adorn.
With balsam and pine their wreaths
entwine.
And full of affection's each token,
Yet feeble best thanks o'er their hushed
ranks.—
Their praise cannot fully be spoken.
I aladiug their story and garlands of glory,
Their name and their fame with their
breath did not cease
When to the immortals they swept through
the portals,
And roar of the conflict became perfect
peace.

—There is rough land on almost all our
farms where it would pay better to plant
nuts, both for timber and for the nuts for

farm with these trees set on the roadside,
perhaps 30 leet from the centre of the road
and 25 feet apart, would sell enough nuts
annually to pay the taxes and leave a sur
plus for each picker sufficient to pay for
picking. Just why farmers should neglect
to properly care for such trees and tufl'er
loss thereby is strange.

—Everybody knowns what a picnic is.
but most folks wonld find it hard to say
how it got that name, and yet it is simple
enough when you come to learn of it.
When a picnic was being arrainged for,
tho custom origionally was that those who
intended to be present should supply the
eatables and drinkables. A list of those
necessities haying been drawn up, it was
passed around, and each person picked
out the articles of food or drink that ho or
she is willing to furnish, and the name of
tho article was nicked or ticked off the
list. The open air entertainment thus bo
came known as "pick and nick." The cus
tom is said to have dated from 1802, so
that the picnic is wholly an institution of
the nineteenth centnry.
—The Citizens Natural Gas Company has
recently secured territory about one mile
and a half in length, and three
fourths of a mile in width, along the Fifth
Sand Gas Belt in Summit twp., northeast
by north, from JJerman Station.
This stretch ofland lieson a line between
tho Fisher Fifth Sander,on the Eichenlaub
and the Phillips Fifth Sander, on the Her
old farms. Tho finding of the fifth sand in
the above named wells, with such enorm
ous rock-pressure, is the most significant
discovery in the history of the Natural
gas business in Butler county. The wells
referred to are comparatively li;ht in vol
umt; but it is only a question of open,
porous sand, and wells will be struck of
larger minute pressure than any ever drill
ed within tho limits of the county. The
Herold well has a pressure of S6O Ifcs. Let
a gravel-bed bo found in the fifth sand, in
that vicinity, and the result will be instan
taneous rock-pressure, or a volume of
860,1bs asquickly as tho gate can be closed.
That would give the owners a well near
ly double in volume of that of the'largest
well ever struck in tho county; and that is
just what is going to happen some day in
the near future.
The Citizen's Gas Company is certainly
to be congratulated upon its foresight, and
characteristic push in securing tho farms
that it has under lease in tho locality de
signated; and in pushing its developments
in the interest of its patrons, it is to be
hoped that such an abundant supply of gas
may be found as will induce manufactur
ing industries to locate in our town. Tho
said Company now has two fields—one on
each side of town, comprising an area of
two thousand acres, which will soon be
feeding its plant from both sides; and it is
its intention to offer special inducements*
to manufacturers in the way of cheap
fuel by and by. X.

Summer Gas.
The gas problem if Butler
a condition of vital importance lo the peo
ple of this town.
Never before in the historv of frsel g.i*
has such a question presented itself to the
people. The citizen who indifferently
stands by and watches the present con
flict between the rival companies with a
view of securing lhe*adt: i nta of on'-rates
for thepr< f» rt is a blind victim of Lis own
stnpidity. Those who suppo a the pri-.-ent
condition of things to be simply a light. be
tween the compa::' ;-.rid tuat they will
reap the benelit of it. ar- blind to their
own interest and the best i. terest ot <>ur
town. The cut in rates is but the combin
ed effort of the two old companies to pre
vent consumers from patromziug the Citi
zens Company with a view of driving it out
of the field a" a competitor, and regaining
tho opportunity of imposing on the people
their former high rati" Batja short time ;.g"
the people of this town were paying tribute
in the shape ofhigh rates for gas to a for
eign corporation whose head, body, soul
breeches", pockets and all. are located in
the city of Buffalo, and whoso only interest
in the town was the amount of money that
could be extracted from our citizens by
piping gas, the natural product of our coun
ty, into town, md furnishing it to the town
lor light and fuel at exorbitant rates.
This mercenary corporation which has
fastened its deadly fangs on the vitals of
tho financial interests of our town estab
lished itseif among us by donating a share
of stock each to two rf our citizens and
engaging in its employ such persons as
would best serve its interests in drrwing to
itself patronage for tho purpose of
extracting from the peoplo high prices lor
gas, and transmitting to the city of Buffalo
some $60,000 annually to fill the maw of
their foreign mercenary master. To-day
this same foreign power which so lately
exercised autocratic independence, is,
throueh its paid emmisaries, carrying mis
sions of iis magnannity to the doors of its
victims.
The determination of a few of onr local
citizens who compose the Citizens Gas
Company to relieve the people from the
necessity of paying tribute to foreign capi
talists, pursuaded this warm hearted Buf
falo corporation that it would be policy
to furnish the people of But lei with cheap
gas to warm themselves by during the
summer? Such a selfish piece of generosi
ty on the part of a foreign mercenary pow
er which forced from the people exhorbi
tant rates lor gas during the long winter
months should be regarded with suspicion
and deserves the eontempt of every good
citizen of our town. The meji connected
with this corporation knowing its highly de
served unpopularity with the people, have
drawn to its aid a local ally in its at
tempt to drive the Citizens Gas Company
from the lield in order that it may reg*ln
its former prestige The Citizens Gas Com
gany has established reasonable rates
which it guarantees it will not exceed lor a
period of ten years, thus giving the
people the assurance of low rates of gas.
Xeither of the old companies give any as
surance that their present low rates will even
continue lor a month. The people, now as
never before; have an opportunity not only
of proving their loyalty to home enterprize
and capital, but securing for themselves
-. easonablo rates for gas in the future, and
by so doing keeping their capital at homo.
Tho drain of foreign corporations upon
this town is enormous.
It is to the interest of every citizen to
keep as much of his money .it home as
possible, to aid in the building up of the
town, and sustaining home interprize and
industries. The Citizens Gas Company is
assured of an abundant supply of gas. ' It
is the purpose of tho Company to pipe the
entire town and give every citizen an oppor
tunity of making a choice of whether he
will support the Company that has been tho
means of reducing tho price of gas and se
cure continued reduction or by paying
their money to a foreign cor
poration, the}- will again subject them
selves to foreign capitalists and take their
chances of paying high rates again in the
future. This is a question tho people will
be called on to decide. With the decision
and financial support of the people in its
favor the Citizens Gas Company will be an
assured and permanent success. Will you
continue to send your money off to Buffalo
or will you keep it at hornet The old
company may be generous in offering you
cheap gas to warm yourself by in tho
summer time,but tho money you send off to
Buffalo brings no return. A CITIZEN.

THAT POISONED FAMILY.
An Analysis of the Flour.
We aucounjed last week that we would
publish the analysis of a Flour shipped in
to Butler which "had nearly prostrated an
entire family. We hope everyone will
profit by the publication of tha facts, and
buy only such Flour as is known be
pure. We sell all the Fiour wo manufac
ture uuder a guarantee of absolute purity,
and everybody knows that we will not on
ly stand by our agreements, bat that a for
feit cil money can easily be ev'lcct d from
ns.
AS EXPLANATION.
The price of wheat at the time we began to
advertise our new departure(Get "A CARD")
was just about as it is now. At any rate,
no decline has taken place. How does it
come, reader, that dealers are offering
Flour so much lower now than several
week ; ago and are rushing into print to
tell everybody f That's easy, you answer,
because Klinglers have initiated a revolu
tion in the Flour business in Butler, and
have brought down the price so low that
no dealer in outside Flour can get near it.
Why. wo will sell you Flour and Feed ami
everything wo handle at the price the
dealer pays. Do you understand now why
no dealer can sell j-ou the same grade of
Flour, or anything else, as low as we can?
Klingler's are first hands, The dealers
are second hands.
JCST OKT "A CARD" AND SKK FOR YOUR
SELF.
We are sorry to make anyone uncom
fortable with the following testimony.
However, it is tho truth, and an old adage
says, "The truth harms no man," After
you read tho following, perhaps you will
wonder who will lie the iirst'to plead inno
cence and publish guarantees of purity and
rewards for the (letectiou of adultera
tion.
Hero is the analysis made by one of the
best chemists in the United States, and it
is properly sworn to:
"This is to certify that-I Lave made an
analysis of Flour, submitted
by Mr. Klingler. The ingredients with
which I found tho above
Flour adulturated are as follows: Sulphur
ic acid, alumina, copper, (iron.) I consid
er all of the above chemicals (esccpt per
haps : -ou) injurious to tho human system
if o; t..! occasionly, and if" used
reguljiiy will bring about serious disorders
of the stom.-.ch. The adulterations may
be id<-d to the flour, to give the bread a
betU; appearance, deceiving the consum
er. , Ph. I!.,
Prof, of Chemistry College of
Pharmacy, and Prof, of
Chemistry at
Medical College.
Sworn aud subscribed before me a no
tary public. JOHN REDMAN,
Notary Public."
We have the original of the above in our
safe, and omit the name of the Flour and
also of the chemist to not impose upon
the latter with a correspondence which
would thus bo inaugurated.
We have some more tales to tell out of
school, because they are, as the school
girl says, too good to keep. But enough
for this lime.
Do yourself a lavor. Go to first hands.
Get the purest aud best to be had. Buy
at the bottom. Stand by the enterprises
that help yonr town j our county aud yonr
self. Get "A CARD," and buy your Flour
and Feed, etc., where you can save your
money, and tho health of your family and
your stock. The "CARD" is a wonder
worker on prices. It is free. Got ono and
then try
SNOW DRIFT FLOUR.
Some people can't find words enough to
praise it. Tho price will frighten you—so
low.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
A dog helonginji to ITarry Turner. «>!
New C.t.-tle, pot into Cnlbor: m's bakery,
a few clays ago, and ate np a family of four
very young kitten*. The old mother cat
came in just a-; the last cat ■was disappear
ing down the canine'* throat and jumped
on the dog. A tierce combat ensued in '
which the dog wu terriblp scratched,
flleeding and howling he ran from the
room and has not since been seen. It H
probably the first ca>e on record in which
a dog has eaten kittens, and shows a very
depmed appetite.
There is now an underground passage
way from the Westmoreland shaft, at
Manor, to the Osceola mines on the
Youghiogheny river, a distance of ten
miles. The passage-way was completed
Saturday by miners who have taken the
coal out of'the earth for that distance.
Fleas have driven the families of John
Snyder and his -on David from their horfle
near Ilinkletown, Lancaster County. It is
a farm house, and the tlea.-. have taken
absolute possession. Xeighbers are afraid
to enter it. It is supposed that several
tramps carried the pets to the residonce.
Wilson Robinson, a farmer of Edenburg.
had a terrible experience with a vicious
horse at his farm Monday. He was driv
ing the animal in company with several
more into the barn. He struck it with a
whip, and the lierce brnte at once attack
ed him, kicking him with both fret. He
was hurled several feet, and as he arose
was attacked again, receiving a kick that
fractured his jaw. The animal seemed
content alter this, and Mr. Robinson stag
gered toward his house. He had nearly
reached it when the horse rushed at him
again and kicked nim through the kitchen
door, fracturing his skull. He will prob
ably die as a result. The horse was shot.
A terrible storm of wind and rain pass
ed over Clarion, Tuesday. Telephone
poles were blown down in the streets, and |
a bridge across the Clarion river near Toby j
creek was flown into the river. Loss to
the county, $2,000.
The recent floods at Xew Castle, and re
sults developing from investigations made
in the interval, are resnlting in the move
ment to compel the removal of all dams
and other artificial obstructions from the
Shenango river and other water courses in
tha* section. A ri.-e of an additional six
ir.ches to the latest high water mark would
have involved an appealing disaster.
It Rained Ice.
At 3:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon the sky
was bright and clear at Pittsburg. The
sun seemed even more radiant than usual
and Pittsburg was enjoying the most
pleasant spell of weather had in many
weeks. The! principal avenues were
thronged with people, hurrying to and fro
and the scene was as delightful as it was
inspiring.
At 3:40 o'clock there was a complete
change. Dark looking clouds began to
form, the atmosphere grow heavy, sonor
ous peals of thunder, as if foretelling d».
struotion, sh~ok the picturesque hills that
envelop the city, and then there was a
calm, but only "tor an instant. Darkness
likened unto that which prevails at the
still hour of the night came on, flashes of
lightning leaned forth from the heavens,
and it seemed an though a battle lor su
premacy was on between the elements
that reign in the upper regions. Suddenly
there was a sharp report and the storm
broke forth in its fury. Tt was exactly
3:45 i*. si. What a change in fifteen
minutes' time! Hail stones the size of
which were never equaled iu that section
of the county exce;it perhaps in 1850. de
scended with a lightning-like rapidity,
causing ruin in almost every part of the
two cities. It lairly rained ice, and as
thousands ofter thousands of ice pebbles
fell trom the heavens the sound of break
ing glass could be heard in every quarter.
The streets that were so crowded with
pedestrians were now deserted, and the
multitude of people hurriedly sought
shelter in door-ways and under protecting
awnings.
The fusilade, for such it was, lasted only
fiye minutes, but in that short space of
time it is estimated that damage was done
to the extent of $200,000. One boy was
fatally injured, mauy persons seriously
and at least twenty horses killed. Nine
thousand panes of glass were shattered at
tho Schenley park conservatory, Nevillo
island farmers suffered a loss of over $50,-
000 and the destruction caused in Alle
gheny as well as in Pittsburg and vicinity
is placed at SIOO,OOO. Business was para!
ised, people were dismayed and elements
had full control.
