oents.
—Co. E will give a festival and dance in
the Armory daring the last three day s —» «
Thursday, Friday and Saturday—«if uext
week. Supper, refreshments, music and
dancing will be the program. All are in
vited.
The labor organizations of Western
Pennsylvania expect to have a great parade
In Pittsburg during the visit of John
Bnrns to that city. He is expected there
during the latter part ot next week, and
the parade will probably take place on Sat
urday the 29tb.
—Campbell & Tenipleton are distribut
ing a booklet setting forth the styles and
prices of a few of tbe many articles of fur
nitnre and art in stock in their immense
establishment, suitable for Christmas pres
ents. The printing and binding were done
1 n the Citizen office.
—Tbere are two registeries of voters
made annually in state, one in May
and j the other in December. Under the

ember, and complete their work ou or be

tbe original on December 19th and 20tb.

—lt i* seldom that we make any note of
the " shows" appearing at tho Park Thea
tre„bat "Tbe Gilhooiy's Abroad" which
appeared there last Thursday was so en
joyable and sach a thoroughly well staged
affair that we caanot pass it witboat n.eu
tion. The Gorman brothers were ibe prin
cipal figures, of coarse, but the entire com
pauy, and it's a Urge one, is o imposed ot
clever people. The Gormans have not
been equaled by any comedians who have
appeared in Batler lately and they will
have a packed house should tbey ever re
turn to tbe town.
—lf anybody thinks the Christmas spirit
i« di niiuishing, let him take a look into the
stores and iu all places whete goods suita
ble for the gilt season are on sale. At
certain boors, and especially on Saturday
afternoo and evening, the stores are lively
with customers. This is as it should be
on the eve of the hallowed and happy
Christmas time. It is a season when all
should do their best to make others happy,
and especially the children. Once a year
let the hard world soften and glow with
the warmth ot good will aud good cheer
and good deeds. Open your heart to Santa
Clans. There's no danger of overdoing
Christmas.
—Some few days ago a man and woman
visited a neighboring town, selling a liq
uid polish to brighten silverware, brass,
etc. They would try it on the brass or
• i!verware in the houses they visited and it
worked so beautifully that people tumbled
over themselves to buy a bottle of it. Some
took two aud three bottles for fear they
would never have such a good chance
again. After canvassing the town pretty
thoroughly one of ths canvassers called at
a hsrdwatb store in the town, and in con
versation with the proprietor gave the
"suap" away by telling him tbat the stuff
they used was an expensive acid, but the
stuff tbey sold was just a harmless mixture
ot '-Hartman water" and whiting, lie
and the hardware man bad a good laugh
about the way the people had been gulled,
but judge of the chagrin of the latter when
lie went home and found that bis wife
bad purchased six bottles of the fraudulent
staff.
—Few lecturer* who have appeared be
fore a Bailer audience have so thoroughly

gia, lam Saturday night. Hi* lecture con
sisted ot a maun of interesting lucideuts of
tbe civil war, beginning with the battle of
Gettysburg and ending witb the snrrend-r
of Lee at Appomattox. He was almost as
enthusiastic in bis praise of Grant, Meade
•nd other Utiiou general*, a* ne W»J re
gardiug Lee ai.d Stonewall Jackson. Bin
description of Lee'* last confart noe with
bit lieutenant* of wbiob be w»* one, in
tbe wood# at nigbt, by tbe dying ember*
of a word fire, was very pathetic, and hi*
demonstration of bis devotion to the old

—The Pennsylvania railroad company

for tue couipiny s-iyiug a physioia-i would
visit them, and nit only vaccinate them,
but all the members of their families.
Some of tbe railroaders are not in favor of
vaccination, but. will snhoiit.
—A com.nercial traveler who stopped
over night with a friend in Batler, was
asked to say the b'essing at »upper. The
reqneot rattled hiui, and he responded as
follows: "We acknowledge the receipt o'
yoar favor of this date. Alio* U3 to ex
press our gratitude for this expression of
good will. Trusting that our boxise may
merit yonr confidence, and that we shall
bave many g.>od orders from yoa this win
ter, we are yours, Amen."
—This is essentially tbo children's sea
son Others cannot en joy the spirit of
Christmas as do the little ones, who have
a profound faith ia Santa Claus, and who
are as happy as larks just to be allowed
to gaz s tneir fill at tbe wonders displayed
displayed iu the shop windows. Every
where you go the childish treble sonnda
above the noise of traffic, and shrill little
voices talk of Cbristimsj »ys as the doors
ot great stores swing back and the crowds
on the street* are augmented by a host of
jnveciU'a out with the adults, woo find
macb real delight iu gixiug Imc'< into tneir
own childhood through tbe medijm of
bright eyes belonging to their own li'.tle
sons and daughters. It is really pitiful to
observe tbe ovcrwisa voaegster who doa s
not believe iu Santa Cla-u, and who iu its
own disappointment endeavors to spoil the
Christmas of others w'uo are not so blase.
This child is to be wept over. So much of
life has been lost to him at s i-jh an early
age. Think what tbe future will be, with
no memory of that beautiful faith in a
kindly Saint that made Ghrisunas a sea
sou ofj-iyoiis excitement no; altogether
uumixed wi b a tiuge of fear al a mystery
that cbillrca of all a<es.rj{ it r, < thor.Kfgii
ly believe in. Parents should try to keep
ap these illation* rather than tiy to dis
pel them because their own ideas of logic
and common sense range themselves in
opposition to this species ol deception.
Christmas to a child who has been told
that there is no sach person as Santa
Claus is not half as sweet as the festival to
the innocent believer, even though tho
former receives three times as many re
membiances of the seasoa as does the lat
ter. Life all too soon takes on serioas a as
pect; therefore, while the cloud* aro held
iu abeyance and tbe light ctanterbalances
the shadow, let ours not be the hand to
drag away the curtain that shrouds so
much *f Christmas joy and life in a mantle
of ploasing uiystery.

performance gave much satisfaction but at

Slocura, an aged tanner of Erie Co., last
Saturday night, seized him and bis wife m

Frank Morris, aged 17 years was con
victed of murder in the first degree at
Uuioutown, last week, lor killing old Ber
nard Loker in Bull Skin township in
September. The y«»ung criminal was ap
parently unconcerned when he beard his
fate. The crime was a most diabolical
one. Young Morris was a friend ot the
Lokers and irequently stayed with them
for days at a time. For three days before
committing the crime he was with them at
their home and enjoyed their hospitality.
When be got Mrs. Loker away he left the
bouse, ostensibly lor the purpose of going
to Mt. Pleasant. He did not go far, how
ever, but soon returned to where Mr.
Loker was engaged building a wall under
his bouse, sneaking behind hiui by a cir
cuitions route. Watching bis opportunity,
when Loker raised up be put two bullets
through bis brain, He then went into the
house to search for the money for wtiich ho
committed the crime. The dog beginning
to bark, Morris went out and shot him.
As he did this, Mrs. L >ker returned with
ner arms full of kiudliug wood. Morris
tired two bnllets into ber aud fled. Mrs.
Loker is still suffering from the effects
of the wounds. The >nly defense that
could be made was a plea of insanity.

Johnson's Universal
Cyclopaedia.
A Great and New American Work
pRKFEIIRt'D TO ALL OTHERS BV SCHOLARS
AND EDUCATORS,
FROM W. T. HARRIS. LL. D.,
U. S Commissioner ot Education.
DEPARTMENT OK THK INTERIOR, BUREAU
OF EDUCATION.
Washington, D. 0.. November 1, 1894.
I have examined carefully the new edi
tion of Johnson's Cyclopaedia, as far as is
sued, and find the work a material im
provement ou the old edition A grea.
merit of thb Cyclopaedia from the begin
niog has been thai its articles were pre
pared by specialists, each in his own de
partment A specialist can say very much
more in a giveu spice regarding his topic
thau a mere compiler can; he knows bo*
to gel the esseulia! poims and the newest
re.-ults iu the fevve.-l words. Ueuce. 1
have found the Cyclopaedia fr»in Uie be
ginning to be one o( itie most useful of its
class—more useful than some more Vo
luminous cyclopaedias. Tne new edition
is a decided advance in cyclopa-dia
inaking. A set ol this work ougbt to be
found iu evt-ry scboolhouse, and the pupils
ougnt to be tangtit how to use it.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) W. T. HARSIS.
FROM RICHARD G BOONE. PH. D.,
Principal Michigan stale Normal School.
Vpsilanti, Mich., Dec., 18, 1394.
I have known and us u d the Johnson's
Universal Cyclopaedia since it was first
published. Much of the time it has had a
place along wjib a halt dozen sets of other
similar works. It has had and still has
the preference for the use of any bu<y per
son. If a family, a school, or a student
can hare but one such work, it should, by
all means, be Jobuson's.
In many respects ihe revision now go
ing through the press is superior t<> the
first issue: in more abundant cross refer
euces, in paragraph headings, in battel
maps, in new subjects, aud up-to-date
treatments, its superiority is apparent
(Sigued) KICHARD G. BOOSK.

For several years I have used the form
er edition of Johnson's Cyclopaedia, and
have lound it very helptnl.
For accuracy, comprehensiveness and
ready reference I belli ve it is unsurpassed.
Anyone needing a Cyclopaedia ot practi
cal value will make no mistake iu pur
chasing the new edition with its larger
type aud ar-icles re-written or revised to
date.

D:d it ever occur to you that mere are

positively bad if it is'nt just ot the best.
Our policy has always been to have noth

When you want drugs come to ns and be

ONLY
An advertisement, people may cry! But it breathes the spirit of the
firm whose interests it presents. Only an ad.—but what volumes it
speaks of enterprise, work and good things in store for purchasers of
clothing. Only an ad.—but it presents, in a small space, a picture of
a firm which is always on the alert to increase an already large trade.
AN
Envious person once declared that Douthett & Graham could not pro
duce the goods they advertise at the prices quoted. Only an ad.—
but no honest firm will advertise a lie, we never made an assertion
that we could not substantiate. We offer SIOO to any individual who
will prove that we do not live up to our
AD.
If you want the latest in Clothing and Gents' Purnisliing' otep in
our store for a half hour and we will prove to you that we live up to
our ads. Yours for Clothing,
