The molten glass was poured into a large
Iron band, sixty-two inches in diameter
and seven inobes high, and barring a slid
ing of tbe mold aud slight dripping of the

Bts. oollected a crowd around himself and
his rig by selling collar buttons and lead
pencils very cheap, and returning ths
trifle paid for them—a nickle. Then he
cold some other articles at a dime and re
turned the dimes, and some things at a
qnarter and returned the quarters. The
game by this time had beeome decidedly
interesting and money was offered the
gentleman as fast as he oould handle it
Then he sold a lot of rings at a half each
saying something abont returning tbe
money after tbe sale was completed, then
a lot of gilded watoh chains (probably
worth a dime) for a dollar each; then he
pretended to stnff five and ten dollar bills
into some cheap watch oases and sold them
for the amount supposedto be inside them.
Then, Oh! then—he gave his driver the
tip, and away they went at a brisk pace
np Jefferson St. and down towards the
West Penn depot. That man ain't dead
—he's a real, live sucker. He suoked
about 9150 out of that crowd in an hour
or so.

I Accidents*
11. G. Keil of the 4tb ward had two fin
gers taken off by the knife of a wood ma
chine last week.
A sad accident occurred at the Kildoo
mine in Clay twp, last Saturday evening.
Oscar, a son of Isaiah Taylor, who was
about 17 years of age, and another miner,
were turning a room, and had placed two
shots of dynamite at the bottom, but one
of the shots exploded, and young Taylor
thinking that it was his. walked up to it
and was standing over it. when it exploded
killing him instantly.
While Robert Bard of Centreville and
Mr. Kaylor of Allegheny were at work
Tuesday at the gas plant of H P. Griffin,
south of Centreville, a ternbie explosion
occurred. It is supposed that a spark flew
from a chisel in the hands of Mr. Bard into
the gas. The roof of the building was car
ried away and the walls spread more than
a foot. Mr. Bard escaped with a few
burns, but Mr. Kaylor was not expected to
recover. The explosion was a terrible one
and was felt a mile away.

The well drilling by George Schsffner on
Mile Run, south ot Butler, about a mile,
is progressing very favorably and two or
three weeks will determine the result of
this enterprise
The timbers are all upon the ground for
the well in this borough. Bear the Walter
Mill, and the drill will be in motion soon
as the derrick is up. The derrick is to be
of iron, an invention of Mr. Wilson who is
at the head of this new venture. Success,
with oil or gas, will make times lively
in Butler.
The Henry well, up the creek, about five
miles, seems to be producing more oil
than any well north of Butler One day
last week its production amounted to 30
barrels, and did not salt water still inter

daily. Leasing still continues brisk

Shoes for the Young Folks,
Boys, Youths, Misses and Children.
We aim to have Style and Service combined in our stock of
shoes for Young Folks. The time was when children's shoes looked
as if they had been made by the mile and cut of! in chunks. But in
these days of advanced shoe making, shoes for the little folks, like
those of their parents, are made to fit the feet neatly and comfortably.
Three things are requisite in a well-run business; Knowledge of
Markets, Money to Pay Quickly and Willingness to take Small Profits.
That these requisites are combined in the management of our child
ren's departments is proven by the fact that they will out-wear any
other shoes sold for the price. Have your children try them and be
convinced.
