LEGAL NEWS.
■OTKB.
Walter McCall, of near Eaclid was ar
rested on Wednesday for felonicns rape at
suit of Miss Dnfly and was released on
bail name day.
The will of W. H. Shira of Parkar
was probated and letters granted to E. C.
Shira, also will of Ann E. McElwee of
Oakland twp. and letters to P. A. Mc-

Dougherty.
The jury in the case of the coin, vs
Albert W. Woodley, indicted for the mur
der of Mrs. Buchanan of Allegheny, stayed
oat for thirty nine hours, and then brought
in a first degree verdict, which was re
markable. There are now six men in Al
legheny Co. jail under sentence of death.
Sylvester Critchlow, the first man tried
for murder in the Homestead cases, is
again in jail in Pittsburg this time on a
less serious cearge. This time he is sued
by his wile for surety of the peace.
Terence Clune, of Franklin was commit
ted to jail lately for non-payment ot' tax.
He has been owing school tax to the
amount of sl. He has had no work lor
about a year, and has put the collector off
from time to time, an the ground that he
was unable to get any money ahead. The
collector finally gave" him a certain time
to pay, and on his failure, tho arrest was
made.
The arrest and commitment are in
conformity with law, and illustrate an in
teresting phase of justice. At the end of
30 days the costs, including board in the
jail, will have amounted to sl3 50. Then
in order to secure his discharge, Terence
will have to get out papers under the in
solvent debtors' act, at a cost of $5. This
brings the total expenditure up to $lB 50—
and still the school district is minus the $1
for which it started out. It is a legal
question whether this case come? under
the insolvent act or not.
A bill in equity was filed in Allegheny
Co. last Thursday, by Hannah Bailey of
Butler Pa., against J. M. Shields, trustee,
and Wm. D., Samuel R., George W.,
John W., Joshua F. and Thomas Bailey.
The plaintiff states that in December, 1888
she made a deed giving all her property,
consisting of a large amount of land in
Allegheny and Butler counties, to J. M.
Shields as trustee. Shields was to act as
her trustee, manage her estate and pay
her the income. With her consent he
could sell property and invest moneys, lu
June 1894, she executed another instru
ment revoking the trust deed giving her
property to Shields. She says that Shields
sold property of hers in Pittsburg for $26-
000 and nas "not accounted to her for the
proceeds. He has also refused to pay over
to her $3,000 he received fiom oil leases,
etc. Shields, she alleges, has acted ar
bitarliy with her and has undertaken to
act not as trustee, but as guardian, claim
ing he has the right to limit her personal
expenses and that she shall only have a
certain amount of income for her personal
use, in disregard of the trust which has no
limitation of the amount of income she is
to have. As he is under no bond and she
is capable of handling her own estate she
wants the trust deed declared null and
void. She receives from SBOO to SI,OOO a
month from oil leases and she has notified
the pipe lines not to pay any more money
to Shields, but to pay it direct to her. She
wants a receiver appointed to take charge
of her property and hold it sabject to the
order of the court, Shields restrained from
collecting money or interfering with the
estate and compelled to give an account
and pay over whatever is due her, and to
reconvey the property to her.
As a provision in the trust deed directs
that in case of the plaintiffs death with
out having made a will, the trustee should
divide the estate among her heirs-at-law,
the Baileys' they are also joined as defen
dants.

A Large Wedding.
One of the largest weddings of tbe year
in Butler was the marriage, Wednesday,

meyer. They were married at the German
R. C. Church at 9 o'clock, Rev. Rummel
fanger officiating. The bride was attired
in a white nilk gown en trninc with flowers.
The maids of honor were Misses Spingler
and Sbuler and were dressed in pale blue
and pale pink. Tbe groomsmen were
Peter Killmeyer and Anthony Goettler.
The couple was pronounced one of the
finest looking couples ever married in the
church.
After the ceremony the friends and re
latives repaired with the happy couple to
the bride s home where the guests, to the
number of 250 spent a day of enjoyment.
A dancing pavillion had been erected, and
an eating tent was near, so nothing was
lacking to make the affair complete. Tbe

The presents were so numerous thet wo

will begin housekeeping on East Jefferson

Uncle Tom Mechling is probably the
only man in Butler who shook hands with
Lafayette when he passed through Butler
in the summer of 1825. "Uncle'' Tom
was a boy of nine years at that time, and
his father kept the Mechling House on
the Diamond, of which the CITIZEN - office
was a part. Lafayette passed through
Butler on his way irom Pittsburg to Erie,
and took his dinner here. The town was
decorated for the occasion,and three arches
had been built—one opposite the old Brink
er hotel, now Williard House: one on the
Diamond and one opposite the old Beatty
hotel, on the site of which the Trontman
building now stands. Lafayette was
traveling with a party, and quite a num
ber of men and boys drove and walked out
the old plank road to meet, and es
cost them to town, and when they got
back to Butler they formed in two lines
and Lafayette walked between them and
shook hands with overybody. He was a
cripple from his wound at Brandywine,
and walked slowly. Uncle Tom describes
him as being at that time a stout, full
facei', round-headed man, who wore a bine
coat, white vest, an 4 buff nankeen pants.
He and his party took dinner at tho Mech
ling house, in the brick building now oc
cupied by Col. Thompson. Among the
dishes Mrs. Mechling had for dinner that
day was boiled sauer-crnut, and of this La
fayette partook very ireely. Then tho
party went on north, stopping over night
at the stone house or somewhe-i near
there. Lafayette is buried in the Pere-la
cbaise cemetery near Paris, there is an iron
railing around his grave but no tombstone
upon it, and every day in the year a fresh
boquet provided by the American Society
in Paris is placed upou the grave.

Cures Constip tion
Blown to Pieces.
A caisson of Battery If. Second Artillery
I". S. A. exploded with terrific force on
Monday at Chicago and thrae soldiers
were instantly killed and a dozen badly in
jured.
The troops left Brighton I'ark for a
long march around the city to exercise
the horses They were in command of
Capt Dodd of troop F. Third caralar, and
consisted of troop F. Tlird cavalry. 40
men; troop E Sixth cavalry. Lieut. Titte.
40 men; platoon of battery F. Second ar
tillery, 'J pans. Lieut. Gayle, 23 men; troop
B. Seventh eavalry Oapt Varumn, 40
men. The men march- d iu this order.
Everything went smoothly and there were
no incidents until ihe column marching
south on Graud boulevard was jast cross
if'g Oakwood boulevard. Then a terrifio
explosion occurred. The men oh the e*is
sou supposed to be DoDovon and Doyle,
were literally blown to pieces and others
were thrown many feet by the violence of
the conclns.-ion Four of the horses draw
ing the caisson fell in their tracks shot
through and horribly mangled, while three
others were blown fifty feet ahead against
the trees on the boulevard, dving instant
ly. The caisson was blown to atoms, not
» piece of it large.' than a man's hand be
ing found. The boulevard looked like a
battlefield.
There was a series of quick explosions
after tho first report and shrapnel shot
rained like hail among the trees on the
boulevard and pierced the surrounding
dwellings. The concussion broke every
window in the houses for blocks away.
The walls and roofs cf the dwellings show
ed the terrific effect of the missiles. T n
exploded shells of rear pait of the cais
son lay strewn over the ground. With
the explosion came great confusion of the
troops and f>r a moment the men and of
ficers seemed powerless to move. To this
was added the fright of the occupants of
the surrounding houeea, who ran scream
ing from their dwellings ouly to be sicken
ed by the sight in the street. A still alarm
of lire had been turned in and with the fire
department came the stock yards police

any signs of heaves, and I feel stisfied

A Suggestion.

Did it ever occur to you tnat there are
drugs and dregs—that drugs are like every
thing else—there are good, bid ar.d indif
ferent. There is nothing else which is
positively bid if it is'nt jast of the best.
Our policy has alw.ys been to have noth
ing hut the best.
When you want drugs come to as and be
assured of fresh pure g»w>ds. and always
what you ask for or your prescription calls
for. It may not always be drugs you want
either. We always have on hanii a fall
