A clond burst ovor New Castle, last Fri
day evening, and undermined the side
walks.
John MeMahan of the 13th ward. Pitts
burg had an attack of the grip in January,
1892. and it was followed by paralysis, loss
of sight, hearing and speech, and for more
than a year the patient has had to be hand
led in every respect like an infant. Dur
the 18 months of his illness he has had, so
far as known, but one return of conscious
ness during which he said the single word
"baby," referring to an infant born to him
when he was first stricken down |Atshortin
tervalsthe sick man emits inarticulate cries
like those of a dumb anuitnal in great pain.
When attacked he wa- a !arg<>,robust man,
but no* is greatly reduced and covered
with suppurating ulcers, which must soon
bring an end to his sufferings. As
an exhibition of the frightful possibilities
of the grip and of the powers of human en
durance, this case is said by physicians to
have bad few, if any parallel.- - .
Horse thieves seem to be having an easv
time of it out in the edge of Clarion, Jef
ferson and Forest counties, another sue
cessful raid having been made there on
Monday night of l ist wsek.
A peculiar state of affairs exists |_in the
jail at Bearer. A lot of men confined for
trivial offenses, witnessed the murder of
C'has. Kirkpatrick, a fellow prisoner; In"
Adam Lamliright, and are now held indefi
nitely as witnesses for the murder trial.
An extraordinary occurrence happened
at Cheswick, Allegheny Co., on the West
Penn road, last Sunday night. A crazy
man eutered Christian M ardor fs house. I
baricaded himself in a room and fired at
the Constable who tried to enier. The
mar, was supposed to be a burglar, the
house was surrounded by armed men, a
running fire was kept up all night during
which the cra*y man was hit twice; and the
door was burst open next morning and the
man was arrested; but be proves to b< a
railroad clerk on a spree, who can give no
account of himself from the time he left
Philadelphia.
The decision of Judge Mehard, of Mor
cer, in the Brady's Bend Iron Co', case
was that the property belongs to first
mortgage bondholders, aud he ordered
said property sold by the trustees, Lnd
wig lire ie r and Walton Ferguson, the ad
vertisement of which appears in this paper.
The entire property, SRVS the K-.st lirady
Review, con*i-:i::;r nl tiJOO acres, will be
Mild, save 100 acre* belonging to Hunter
& Cummins and Galusha A. Grow, and
aloo lots No. 216, 217, 218, 41, 42, 43, 180,
181 and 182 as shown on the plan of lots in
East Brady. Thus it will be seen that the
first mortgage bondholders still claim all
this place only exempting above lots from
said sale. This is a surprise to many ol
our citizens who own property purchased
of the Brady's Bend Iron Co., a score of
years ago at this place, and until within a
year or so believed their titles to same
were good. We reiterate ou statement
011 a previous occasion that we firmly be
lieve that the titles are good, and upon
questioning Orr Bnflington, E*q , of Kit
tanning, one of the attorneys for tho Com
pany, in regard to property titles here, be
said' it is folly to think the titles are valid,
and remarked that the Brady's Bend Iron
Co. had no intention of claiming said prop
erty. The agent of the B. B. I. C. at this
place, Mr. Edgar Pool, says however, that
the property will lie contested by the cor
poration he represents, and says that our
titles will be knocked into a cocked hat.
Not very comforting assurance certainly.
Although those who own property on
peaceable possession of the same since
1868 do not believe their titles are void
and are not alarmed over the prospects
yet the fact is very plain to all that if it
be allowed to go to a sale in the manner
it appears in the advertisement great harm
may result.

1 The dealers told yoa Flour and Feed
would be higher. We said they would lie
lower. Read the following and see who is
right.
On and alter June 22d, the following ri
Auctions on wholesale prices will be made
from our list:
Deduct from former price on—
Oriental Flour, pjr kirrel •iO £0
Snow Drift Flour, per barrel 0 20
Wheat Bran, per ton 1 00
Brown Wheat Middlings, per t0n.... 1 00
Xo. 1 White V iddlings, per ton 1 00
Fancy White Middlings, per ton 1 00
Low Grade Flour, per ton 0 M
Xo. 1 Corn and Oa'.s Chops, per ton.. 1 00
Unbolted Corn Meal, per ton 1 00
Only "card" customers get advantage of
this decline. You need not bny a barrel
or a ton. We will sell you any amount at
the reduet on. There is more meaning
than ever in our advice:
"GET 'A CARD' A.ND SAVE VOI R MOSSY."
The report has been circulated that dur
ing the present financial stringency the
Klinglers must have money quick and
must unload their immense' stock. Be
that as it may, we have undertaken to
give the customers of Butler and vicinity
the cheapest Flour and Feed for tho next
year they have ever had, and everybody
knows we generally do what we say, and
besides, have the facilities to carrv out
our intentions. It's your own fault, if you
don't share in our money saving scheme.
All you need is a "card'' to participate.
SOW GBT "A CARD" AT OST'E.
If you are fortunate enough to live
where wo have no wholesale trade, you
can get "a card." You won't know n'ntil
you try and see. With this arrangement
wo do not, as is often done, cut the prices
to one customer and then make it up on
the next one who is loss disposed to ouib
ble.
EVERYBODY TREATED ALIKE.
If you have "a card," IOU buy at rock
bottom,and always get dealers' cost prices.
Xo one can afford to do without
ssow DRIFT FLOUR.
The present decline makes it now by lar
tho cheapest and best flour ever off.-rtd
to this community. Some people are
afraid to buy a flour so much below one
dollar per sack, because they think it can't
be good. They are right, if they*buy else
where than from Klinglers at such low
prices, but. remember, with "a card" you
get wholesale prices at Klinglers and then
TWO DOLLARS NEARLY DO THE WORK OF

By Saturday, June 24th, we expect the
arrival of a
LARUE CONSIGNMENT OF SEEDS.
It will consist of Buckwheat—Silver
Hull, Japanese, Common Grey; large and
small clover, Timothy, Kentucky Blue
Grass, German Millet, Orchid Grass aud
Mixed Lawn Grass. We will save you
money on Seeds as well as on everything
in our line. Be sure and got "a card" if
you need any seeds.
Our trade mark is
PURITY PRE-EMINENT
We warrant everything we sell absolute
ly pure. You take no chances in buying
our goods. Wo stand oyer them. It takes
but a trial of our goods, on your part, and
we have your confidence. "Cards" can be
obtained Iree, at any of the following
places: Oriental Roller Mills, Mifllin St.;
West Penn Elector, opposite Penn'a de
pot; Main Office, 139 East Jefferson St.
Telephone No 10. II.J. KLINGLER d

P. S. —Every tamily should have a bar
rel of Winfield Dairy Salt. It's the finest
table salt made, and with "a card" costs
less than tho cheapest sack of flour.
There are a dozen different uses for salt,
and every body can easily consume a bar
rel in a short time.
Golden Wedding.
Mr. Robert I*. Anderson and Miss Eliza
Jano Redick were married by Rev. John
R. Agnew, MayUth, 1843. About CO or 70
of the friends and relations of this couple
met at their home in Allegheny twp.,
Butler Co. Pa., June Bth, to commemor
ate this event. Most of the company were
of the neighborhood, but nut all. Mr.
Wm. Gibson, a nephewof Mrs. Anderson,
and a very successful oil operator of
Washington Pa. and his wife and little
daughter wore present, also Col. O. C.
Kedic, of Butler, a half brother of Mrs.
Anderson, and his wife, aud Dr. It. L.
McCurdy, ol Freeport, and his wife who is
a cousin of Mrs. Anderson. A few hours
wore spent very pleasantly in social inter
course, partaking of a good dinner, and
henring several brief addresses and united
at tho closo in prayer. Tho weather was
almost perfect iu its adaption for such a
meeting and the whole affair must have
been a source of much satisfaction to this
aged couple, who were kept in ignorance
of its approach, until tho morning of its
occurrence. While greatly favored in
their lives both have been spared so long,
their|experience has beon the common one,
expressed by tho poet:
Yoa, hope and despondency, pleasure
and pain,
We mingle togother, in sunshine and
rain.
And the smile and the tear, tho song and
the dirge,
Still follow each other, like surge upon
surge.
The living children of Mr. and Mrs.
Anderson aro Miss Salina, living with her
parents, Mr. 0. 11., farmer and oil opera
tor, living with his fomily a few rods from
tho pareutial homo, and two daughters
who are missioneries in China, Mrs. Jennie
Luiighlin, wife of Rev. John H. Latighlin,
ami Miss Emma. May the God who has
kept them thus far, continue to bless them
during tho remainder of their earthly
journey, gently guiding and supporting
them as they pass on still nearer to their
celenlial home.
