THE CITIZEN THURSDAY. JANUARY 10. 1893 Katan* at r«u>aa at »atla* *» *« •atwr taiUl C. IWWI. UMlaker Harrisburg Notes. The Stat* Legislature convened Wed nesday, and quite a number of bills were introduced in both branches; but the break between Quay and Martin was the main topic of conversation. Quay's rpeech in the Senate; Martia's denial, Penrose's de feat, Pattlson's probable candidacy, and the possible results of the break were talk ed about by everybody. From a partial list of the Committees we gee that Mr. Douthett is a meraoer of the Appropriations, Agriculture aud Congres sioual Apportionment Committed, and Mr. Moore of the Judiciary General The Text Book Trust formed under the j new free school book law may be investi- i gated by a legislative commission. It is | said that it has already made a million dollars off the State, and that bocks cost ing but irom 3 to 8 cents were sold at 25 to 50. IF the State Board of Health asks the Legislature to establish a laboratory of hygiene and bacteriology in this State, we hope the Legislature will decide to do so. Such an institution has long been needed in Pennsylvania, and it is time something was done. The proposition of the Board to locate the laboratory in Harrisburg is a good one, and the influence of the Board will have considerable weight in deciding that question. It is understood that one of the things it is proposed to do in the laboratory, it established, is to make the new diphtheria remedy, anti-toxine. The remarkable cure made by this remedy ought to ga far towards securing Bome sort of an institntion where it can be made, and there could be no better place tban in a State laboratory.—Harrisburg Telegraph. Washington. Senator Hill of New York surprised everybody in Washington last Thursday by taking dinner with President Cleveland. This is not a case of a lion and a lamb ly ing down together, but something might be said about a tiger and a hippopotamus. Congressmen Sibley and Kribba have preferred charges again»t Collector Kearns of the Pittabur* Internal Revenue office, aud a special agent will investigate the matter. Sibley made a speech in the House Tues day, in which he denounced Cleveland as a despot, and intimated that he was a "com bination of brains belly and brass," The sensation of Wednesday was Quay's attack on Dave Martin, the Republican leader ot Phil'a., in the Senate. He pro posed an amendment to the income tax law, and in his remarks upon it, accused Martin of breaking faith with bim because ha waa In the pay of a corporation. Quay wanted Boi» Penrose nominated for Mayor of Phil'a. and Martin turned Penrose down and nominated War Wick. THB meeting of the Lincoln League, Tuesday evening was a well attended and interesting one. Speeches were made by Clerk Criswell and A. 0. Williams, an.l Brother Tucker favored tbe audience with a few songs. DALZELL. Philadelphia Timet, Washington Letter. John Dalzell, of Pittshtrg, can wear a :i„ Wiaca that tiwra u a haunt New Year before him, for he is likely to be chairman of tbe committee on Ways and Means. If Julius Caesar Burrows aball be elected to tbe Senate, Dalzell will surely receive tbat important chairmanship. Moreover, be is bigenough man to fill the position to the en tire satisfaction of his party. Have you ever heard the rumor that if Keed cannot get tbe Presidential nomination in 1896 he will endeavor to throw his strength to Dalzellf There is an undercurrent rumor to that effect. Stranger things have happened. Nobody ever dreamed of G»rfieM for the Preaideucy until his friend Blaine gave tbe word while the Republican national cou rention was in session in Chicago in 1880. A PPHAMKO calls for food and clothing oome from Western Nebraska, where the crops tbe past year were an entire failure by tbe reason of the drought Relief is going forward from many points, but it Will bave to be prompt and generous or great suffering and death perhaps will re mit from tbe destitution of food and fuel and the means of procuring them. For Stock Kaieera. Butler county stock raisers are begin ning to realize the fact that they roust either go out of tbe business of raising horses or change tbe character of their breeds. "Streeters" are no longer in it. The cable and electric cars in the cities bave almost altogether superseded the old ■tyle horses cars, and there is no longer a market for this class of stock. Bui the ex press companies, brewers an>l heavy freight bauleis in tbe cities bave not lessened in number, and they are always in the market for heavy, well formed draught horses, and the price* for tMs class of animals are as Ugh, if not higher, than ever. Another I obaracter of horses always in demand are roadster*, from 10 to 12 hundred, well made and proportioned. These are used in liveries and for public and private car riage riding. Horses suitable for this class must be stylish, have fine action and live ly spirits. Animals tbat meet these re quirements always sell well, and extra good ones bring a* big prices now ac they did years ago when "times" were better. With these things in view, stallion owners are preparing themselves for the changed condition of affairs and in four or five years Butler county ought to be able to meet all demands for the class of horses indicated. It doesn't cont any more to raise a marketable auimal than one that dealers can find no use for.

E E Graham i Miss Mary Caldwell , C in. Ob as. Tiuiblin j The Grave Yard Case. Judge Mebard's opinion in the grave j yard case was filed in the Prothonotarys office early this week. The opinion is ic favor ot the school board and will result in the old burial ground on McKean and North streets being used for school pur poses. It will be remembered that nearly a year ago, the school board of Butler, under a general law, condemned the old grave yard and took steps for taking possesion ol it. This movement was fought by many who had relatives buried in the cemetery and the matter culminated in a lengthy bill of exceptions filed by Col. John M. Sullivan. Abram Martin, Thomas Martin, Dr. Cooper McKee and Benjamin Bredin, objecting to the use of the lot for Bcnool purposes. Judge Mehard of Mercer was asked to consider the case and his opinion is very interesting, and of vital interest to every resident of Butler. After disposing of the several excep i cions, Judge Mehard says: "The exceptants do not claim to have any title to the land, or 10 any part of the burial ground « hich the petitioners seek to appropriate. They rest their rights upon the fact that they are citiiens of the borough of Butler aud that some of them have friends aDd rela tives buried in the ground. It does not appear that any of the exceptants were so related to any ot those whose bodies must be disturbed by the taking of this laud, that upon thein would be the right and duty of caring to the remains. It so, then it there were no authorities to the contrary we would be inclined to ibe opinion ttiat such exceptants would nave standing to complain tnat no dam ages or inadequate damages were a.* ardeu 10 them. Bui there are authorities to the eoutrary. Tne right of the legislature to order or authorize the removal of the re mains ot the (*ead from burying grounds, is based not only upon emiuent domain bnt also on the police power of the state The law does not recotjuiie a property right in any one to the remains. A mere of sepulcnre wiibout the laud itself is regarded as a license or privilege accepted and held for only so long as the land shall be used for burial purposes Hence when the state authornes the remvo »l of tne dead from a burial ground and an appropriation of the laud to a public use, tnose v.'bo would otherwise have a right ot sepulchre, or who have rel«*uveri l>Qri«d iu such ground h»ve no property therein that can be taken, injured or destroyed, and therefore have no standing to com p. ain of the amount ot damages awarded or as to the person* to whom awarded by the report of the viewers. " We consider that the right is conferred on school boards by the act 6 April 93,iu clear and express terms, to take tor conj- UIOJ school purposes ground kept as a public burial place. " " All exceptions having thus been dismiss ed. the report of viewers u^ootirmed." A bill of exceptions for the exceptants aud the matter may go to the supreme (Jourt. THERE is at present a strange state of affairs in New Foondland. About the only circulating medium in the country was the notes of two banks, and when they closed down, before Cnristmas, tbey stopped every form of trade. People with hundreds of dollars worth of notes could not get rid of them. The banks were closed, business men would not take them, and one could not even buy provision s or fuel with them. This has substantially continued up to the present. Wild Cats. Dr. Robinson of Bast Bady received on Dec. 21st as a Christmas gift, the skin of a large catamount, from C. P. McCafferty. who is now at Diagess, W. \a. The "cat was killed the Saturday previous after a fierce struggle, within half a mile of the Pearl Mining Go's store, and under very pecnliar circumstances. It appears that Mr. McCafferty was on bis way from the mine—where he had spent the day seeing that all the work was going on properly — armed only with his dinner bucket, when all of a sudden a yell which was hair rais ing and blood curdling smote his ears, and un looking ha found the rghl of way dis puted by the monster. The aniniai u-a seen bis image on the side o 1 the shining bucket, and supposing that another cat had come into the domain, yelled the yell of defiance. There was no time to lose, it was useless to turn back and retrace his steps. If ever there was a time that a guu was needed it was now, but as that was out of the question, Mc. began a system of maneuvering, all the time keeping one eye on the cat and the other on an oak tree to ward whicb he edged, until he reached it, and that proyed his fortress of salety. Watching bis opportunity he finally made a grab at his catHbip, and with the "resol ution of despair" in less time than we can pen these lines, he had it by the bind legs, dasbed its brains out against the tree, and carried bis trophy to the store, where ii wan "peeled," and from where it was ship ped as above stated. It is believed to be tbe largest animal of the kind ever Killed except two. A few years ago John Robb shot one near Kissinger's Mills which measured 9 feet, 114 inches Tbe cat got away and is said to be prowling around in the vicinity of New Bethlehem. Some say it was 10 feet, but John says there is no use to lie about half an inch. Tbe oth er one was killed by Mike Casey in Forest county, but was not measured. However it weighed 185 pounds This cat disap peared in the tall hemlocks, and Mike has been gradually growing bald ever since We learn that about 137 ot these animals have been killed witbui a radius of thirty ; miles of this place within past twenty five years and are sorry wo have not space to devote to many of the incidents con nected therewith I'ortrrsville Item*.

CUAKLJSB U. Bwfc RAM BLINGS. A friend from Texas is all enthusiasm over his state. In a talk the other day he made many claims for the Lnno Star that I could this column's veracity by repeating. "Why," says he, "France is a great country and has moulded centuries of the world's historj, yet if Texas were a circular lake and France a circular island in it, it would be out of sight of the shore all the wav round. t t X I This spirit of love for ones state or locality, bombastic though it m y be, is. in the main, patriotic and more of it at home would give this town the impulse that its natural advantages warrant. We have bad talk and we have had some work, but the business men in general have left the work to a tew public spirited citiiens. In Butler, as in every other town, one finds a class of men who know what ought to be done, but do very little themselves Such sieepy drones will do very well for grave yards but it takes men of action to make a town grow. t t t i A gentleman with a fine horse of which he isjustly proud was giving one of our bicycle boys (who has figured in several races) a little sleigh ride the other day, and after an extended burst of speed, asked, "What do you thiak of this, "Is'nt it glorious" "Yes," said the bicycle boy, '•but it seems a little slow" The fact is, to one accustomed to a good wheel, and not used to riding behind a horse, his fastest gait seems unaccountably alow at first and when it comes to walking up and down the little hills, one seems to almost stand still. Consider. The average pace of even the ordinary bicycle rider on gen eral roads is just about a* fa»t as an av erage horse can tr-it. The ride in a cutter over good roads and behind a fiet horce ■ seems slow to the bic>cle rider. Did > oil ever nee a horse overtake and pa.-n a bicycle! A gad well on the hill south of town gave another illustration of Butler couuty a supremacy an an oil field. Last Tuursda-y the lineman on approaching this well was (surprised to find it flowing oil. It made 15 barrels at Ibe first gush and was promptly plngged, to await further devel opeinenis. This well has been supplying gas to the oid company for live years. A leading operator said nothing would be done with it until the well to be drilled on the flat is in. 4 i i 4 He was an old croaker; he loved to com plain, in winter of snow, in summer ot rain. He growled when a youugster, he's still growling yet. Then hurry him oil and bury bim deep,lor he always will grumble, awake or asleep Go make his lone grave, where the bumble bee bums, where the straddle bug straddles and the humming bird hums, where tne katydid di.l what she wauted to do,and the green bottle fly used to fly when it flew. Horses are low in price as everyone knows, but wc d'd not believe the story told of a Butler roan who traded a fair borse lor two geece, seven turkey hens, a gobbler and a goat. Tbe story is true but not of a Butler man. It was Isaac Buff ington of Kittauning who recently made this remarkable trade. Cherry Township. Thomas F.

A neighbor's girl was teasing tbe boy about taking the baby home when the boy be oame angry and threw a scissors at her. The missle struck the baby on the, head killing it instantly. The Westmorland county people want an additional law judge. Tbe business of the oounty has increased greatly during the past few years, and now that Judge Doty will not be able hold court for some months, it is feared the business will so accumulate that it will take years to catch up.
