It has become apparent that the S rate of Pennsylvania is no longer a delibera tive body. What we mean by this is that measures are not considered on their merits, but are treated from the ridiculous standpoint of Senatorial courtesy, which has been abused so that it can no longer be seriously called courtesy. The situation is a remarkable one and has led to remarkable results so far, with a prospect of multiplying them before the session is over. We believe it to be the fact that during the four months of the present session but one bill introduced *>y a Senator has been deleated in the Senate. That was Senator Porter's bill for the con solidation of wards in Philadelphia and everybody knows what was meant by that action. It was an outburst of factional differences substantially begun in this city. The bill was neither considered nor disposed of on its merits, else it would have been passed as a measure altogether beneficial to this city. Every other bill but that presented by a Senator has passed because the members have got into the habit of believing that Senatorial courtesy requires that they shall not exercise the least judgement in acting upon any measure introduced by a fellow Senator. No matter how impracticable, absurd or undesirable the bill may be, it goes through because it would be discour teous to the man who introduced it to tell him the troth about it and oppose it. How the Senate can expect to retain anything like a proper reputation under snch con duct it is impossible to understand. The original idea of a legislative body like the Senate, if it was not the absolute intention in creating it, was that it should act as a conservative influence apon all legislation. The House being the more numerous body it could not be expected it would feel tbe responsibility which the lesser and more dignified member would better understand. But the Senate as it now acts really accepts no responsibility. It passes everything along. The cour tesy nonsense has been carried to an ex treme that would be laughable if it were less menacing in its results. Unless this practice undergoes a radical change and the Senate concludes to do its duty on tbe basis of reason and intelli gence instead of courtesy, that body will soon become a useless feature of tbe State's legislative machinery. Senators them selves can hardly fail to understand this, and those who do understand it do them selves very scant justice if they fail to take steps calculated to remedy it. Phila delphia Press. The warning silver fight between the forces of monometallism and bimetallism is proving a great thorn in the flesh to the politicians aad especially those whose terms of office expire next year, as well as in 1897. Not only is there a presidential election inside of a year and a half, but the terms of several of the most prominent members of the United States Senate ex pire in March, 1897, making it incumbent upon them to fix up their fences at once if they want to be their own successors. Senators Brice of Ohio and Don Cameron of Pennsylvania, who are in this latter class, had a long conversation at the Fifth Avenue hotel in New York last Friday on the various phases of the political situa tion. In both states, the outlook is far from encouraging. In the Keystone stale, the bimetallists are on top. and as Senator Cameron is known to have pronounced sil ver tendencies, Lis prospects ar& not bright.— Ex. The Nicaragua Affair. llarineß ware landed from the English fleet at Corinto, Nicaragua, last Saturday, and occupied the place; and as there was a probability for a local revolution the government weakened and offered to com promise with the English in the following terms:— First--Nicaragua is to pay $77,500 at London within two week*. Second—The British forces are to be immediately withdrawn from Corinto,with out waiting for the two weeks to elapse Third—A mixed commission ol arbitra tion is to pass on the demands of Great Britain in excess to the $77,500 claim, such commission to be constituted in a manner satisfactory to the United States and Nic aragua. The foregoing terms, it is believed, will be acoepted by President Zelaya and his cabinet! It is understood that the sugges tion of settlement came from the Nicar aguan republic's representative at Wash ington, and it is believed that such an ad justment would be agreeable to the United States authorities. If Nicaragua's accept ance is given, the proposition will be nrged on the Lmdon foreign offi -o, anil it is believed will be accepted. Gknkkal Grant's birthday bad a notable observance in Pittsburg, last Saturday. The Americus Club opened its new club bouse at corner of I'enn anil 4lh »t reels, and had a public reception. That evening the club gave a banijuet at the Uououg* hela House, at which John Dalz'.-I! was the toastmaster, and Senator William ft Alli son, of lowa, the priucipal speaker. Gen. Grosvenor, of Ohio, and Congressman Hepburn, of lowa, made speeeh.;s The affair will give Senator Allison *>me!lnng of a boom for the next Presidential nom ination. That Eastern Treaty. Russia, Germany and France tiled a pro test against the ratification of the late treaty made between Japan and China. Japan and Great Britain seem to under stand each other, and It is said an effort "was made to secure the good-will of the United States. If Kussia uses lorce to se cure her ends on the Pacific a European war may be the result. Thk Pennsylvania Teachers' Association has selected Mount Gretna as the place of its next meeting, on July 2, 3 and 4 next Tok length, breadth and thickness of the statesmanship of the present Admimstra tion is best measured by the fact that under its management the Government is paying ont $240,000 more per day than it is t»k'ing in. IT would spare this Government a supreme hnmilintinn if we could somehow diffuse throughout iiU the world the im pros-iou that we Lever askid Spam to ppologue. Harrisburg Notes. On Wednesday Gov. Hustings sent the name of Thomas Robinson of Butler for Superintendent of Public Printing to the State Senate and the nomination was confirmed. The revenue bill was reported to the House with amendment*, the provisions imposing a tax on one mill on manufactur ing corporations, building and loan as sociations and purely mutual insurance associations without capital stock or cum ulative reserve. the latter class embracing the Farmers" mutual fire insurance com panies, have been stricken ont. Chairman Riter also suggested an amendment, which was agreed to, providing that the entire amount ot money reTerting to the various sub divisions at once shall be diverted from the State Treasury gradually in order not to seriously affect the State s resources. Under the bill as framed by the tax con ference it was proposed to have the person al property tax, mercantile, billiard, brok ers, peddler, theatre and other licenses with the tax or writs, wills and deeds, and net earnings of bankers and brokers amounting to abont $1,430,000 collected annually by the counties, cities, boroughs and townships for their own use, bat the amendment changes this divertion of the revenue so that one-tourth will go to the sub-divisions next January, one half in January, 1897, the rest a year lat- On Friday Chaairman Riter, of the Ways and Means committee, reported the amend ed Tax Conference bill to the House. J. D. Weeks said that while the amendments were not satisfactory to the Tax confer ence, yet on the principle that "half a loaf is better than no bread," they would not oppose them. He said that some of the country members were very much oppos ed to the exemption of building and loan associations and manufacturing corpora tions from taxation, and wanted to try to have the 1 mill tax restored by the House. He depreciated such action, and was per suading them to let the matter go and try to put the bill through in its present shape. The measure exempts from taxation building and loan associations and such manufacturing companies as are not en gaged in the brewing or distilling of spirits or malt liquors. It provides that insurance companies liablejto taxation shall not be required to make report of or pay any further taxation on the moneys and credits "other than such reserved in payments of premiums and assessments," dwned by them in their own rights. The clause taxing mutual insurance companies with out capital stock has been eliminated. The recent decision of Judge Stewart, of Franklin, that the present act (orbiddiDg the use of explosives in streams to catch fish was unconstitutional, as its subject was not clearly expressed in the title, in duced Representative Stewart, of Phila delphia. to present a bill to correct the de fect in the present law. It provides ' that no person shall, at any time or place, in any of the waters of Pennsylvania, use any torpedo,.giant powder,nitro-glycerine, dynamite, lime or any oiher poisonous or explosive substance for the purpose of catching or takiDg fith, under a penalty of SSO for each offense." On Monday word was received of the death of Hon. M. B. Lemon, of Pittsburg,a member ot the House, at a hotel in New York; and the House appointed a commit tee to arrange for tte funeral, and then adjourned. In the House, Tuesday, two bills of con siderable interest were killed on final pas sage One was to crea'e the county of Quay out of parts of Luzerne and Schuyl kill; and the other was the McQuown bill to pr* vent tbe changing of school books oftener than once in five years. The Quay county bill got bat 92 votes and the school book bill but 71. The Congressional ap portinment bill was reported from Com mittee, that .lay. Butler is left in with the iame old counties but the number of the district is ohanged to 27. Among the bills which passed finally was the Marshall bill, amending the oleo m&rgeiine law of 1895, by taking one-half of tho fine from the informer and giving it tor the use of tbe State Dairy and Food Commission. The vote was 152 to 2. The bill of Mr. Weyand, of Beaver, amending the escheat law of 1885 by ex tending its provisions to unpaid dividends ot banks, savings institutions, building and loan associations and trust companies, passed finally. Mr. Seyfert's bill provid that female shall receive the same salaries as male teachers for performing the same duties, also passed finally. The building and loan league bill, introduced by Mr. Cotton, authorizing the issue of two or more classes of stock for permanent investments, and for home builders, was deleated, receiving only 76 votos. On Wednesday tbe Penrose resolution to Lexow Philadelphia, had a rather un satisfactory airing in committee, and was held over till aext Tuesday. The Greater Pittsburg bills were sent to the Governor, who will bear arguments regarding them next Monday and Tuesday. Two thousand patents have been taken ont in this country on the manufacture for paper alone. Untidy Crtrkltemx We farmers are winding up oats sowing and will be ready to help our city cou sins plant their "ingins" and sow their gape seed, if we get a call — don't inquire why wet re so liberal towards our city friends—we have plenty to drink and other things in proportion, it is all owing to our largeness of heart we make the proposi tion. In my last effusion to your paper I spoke of our judges winding np the April term of court. But a case came up however in Judge McGeary's court on a "special allocatur" and was heard on April 24tb. The case was something like this An elderly widow lady in onr com munity inherited quite a sum of money from her father's estate Hnd bought in her own right farmes in different parts of Western Pa., the last purchase was made* by her hjsband c.nd she allowed tbe deed to be made in her husband's name not caring ti. go to the squires, etc The old gent died a few years ago and willed the property to a s et. Since that time this sun ditd also but in bis life time inade an article and deed to a brother, tfce old lady still having possession of the farm A misunderstanding has arisen among the parties in interest aud a suit of ejectment is now pending in our Co court to decide who ihe nghtful owner is. The old lady employed a man to farm some of the place to maintain her. When to bis sur prise al.mg came one of tbe parties to the suit and had him brought before the judge for "trespass." All parties appearing tbe case was called aud had not proceeded far until the c*>urt saw there was nothing in the case, and mind you without consult ing any law books or holding the case under advisement announced his decision which was "no jurisdiction" and wr.s done without any sound of trumpet, fear or favor, exactly to the point and right. We were glad no legal lights from the city came out to iutcrfere and make a long job ont of so small a matter. In other words when we do have a little ll—ollow etn party out here we can run it ourselves. Judge McGeary has conducted affairs in our township satisfactorily for a long time. He is now serving his 3rd term. Has been ably assisted however by Judge Lehman and Judge Moore who are approaching bim in efficiency and will be able to do their whole duty by the time Judge Mc- Geary retires. We dare any man to show us one case of his that was cariied to a higher court that was ever reversed. Gentlemen vou need not smile these are facts. Muddy Creek cau be depended on to keep its citizens straightened up when they need it without going to the Co., seat to spend their time and money; and I now | rise in my place and nominate Judze Mc- I Geary for the lir-i vacancy on the Supreme Bern'. Mrs. William Shields of our neighbor hood diud suddenly on the uiorniug of the 24tb. She was in her usual good health and had gone out to milk the cows when the summons came. She was buried at Porterjville. A husband, daughter and g~n remain to mourn her loss. W. W. McClymonds has been indisposed tor several days, but is able to be about again. Uncle Isaac Moore our oldest citizen, over 90 years of age Is enjoying as good health as could be expected, but is almost blind. Uncle Sam Jones had an old tim-» log ging bee on the afternoon of the 26th. Uncle Jno. W. Stewart is again a citi len of our township, We welcome him back. Shepler Baston is badly afflicted with rheumatism. Squire Moore is kept bnsy taking leases for parties whose business it is to turn the When we get oil out here, plug hats will be in demand. Let this be notice to brother Heck, Harvey Colbert and Colbert & Dale to stock up, for it will come. With best wishes for a larger Butler by reason of a new hospital; scores ol other new buildings and prosperity and happi ness to all its citizens. 13, A.B. PetersviUe Items. Levi Carver's house burned down last Thursday, and but very little was saved; almost a total loss. The insurance was very small, only amounting to about S2OO. Mr. Sarver is an hoßest hard working man and needs all the help bis good neighbors can possibly give him. Among the sick are John Dambach who has been very sick for several weeks with dropsy; also Mrs. Agnes McCuilough, sister of our worthy townsmen Mr. Walk er. She is staying with her brother Mr. Walker. William Hillianl is the happy father of a pair of twin boys. Among the visitors was Alf Cutter, from Greenville, who visited his brother Rev.

Charlie Oliver mo\ed into Miss Laura Heckart's house on Evans City street, and Mrs. Jane Steen and daughter will move into the Oliver bouse. UHIJKRWRITEB. She Was Smart. A dispatch from Cleveland, O , dated last Saturday, said, Joseph Fox, said to be a wealthy oil operator, of Petersville, Butler county, Pennsylvania, has bad an experience here that will cause him to be a little shy of feminine correspondents in the future, besides costing him consider able money and no end ot trouble. Six mouths ago there appeared in a West Virginia paper an advertisement from a Cleveland widow, asking for a cor respondent of the masculiue gender, who, if he were up in years, a d a widower or a bachelor, might consider the correspond ence as likely to culminate in a matrimon ial alliance. The advertisement conclud ed with the address-of the woman as being on D.idge street, Cleveland. Mr. Pox raw this advertisement, and concluded that he was the very man the woman needed. Accordingly he replied, and for six months the mail* have been carrying enough sweetness between the two to start .1 sufjar refinery on a large scale. But this did not satisfy the Butler conn*y man, and upon April 18, he con cluded he would go and see his fair cor respondent, as she represented herself to be, and her four charming daughters. This he did, and arrived at the Kennard hotel, where he registered and sent a note to the lady. Now the ladie's name was Smart, and she proved that the appellation was right ly given her. She called to see him, and then he went to see her, at her home on Dodge street. The first day she borrowed S2O to pay over due raut. The next she got $29 for a new dress, and the third she received $5 for a new bonnet. By this time she thought it a good thing and re solved to push it along, so the next day she borrowed another $5 to buy a pair of shoes. Then being rigged out, she Bhow him the sights of the town. All this proved too much for the old gentleman to keep to himself, and so he pourei oat the secret of his heart to Chas Buckley, the hotel clerk. The result opened Mr. Fox's eyes, but he was not as foxy as the widow, and the old gentleman wa3 out about SBS. He wrote her a note and asked to borrow $lO to get ontoftown The smart widow replied that she would not lend it to him and that she did want not to Rte him again Then he went to the polico and told his story. The police went with him to the widow's house. Then there was a scene She was indiguant that he had brought policeman to her resi dence and refused to marry him or return one cent; and as the police could not en force collection, the party retreated, while the widow aud her lour daughters, *vho aro all above 16, sent after the discomfit ed invaders shrieks of laughter. Mr. Fox's troubles were not over, for he hail spent all the money ho. had with him and was compelled to telegraph to ao attorney of Pittsburg and ask enough money to pay his bills and get home Ue and the gentleman he wired are associated in the oil business. Mr. Fox has a family of four grown children. Ue is about GO years old. He said in regard to bis exploit that it would do biin good, as he had been sticking close to business for many years. He also said Ins Butler county friends would not learn of it, as he would tell them ho bad been to Cleveland to visit a cousin who was about to sail for Europe. An Odd Reunion. The thirtieth annual reunion of the sur vivors of the steamer Sultana was held at Knoxville, Tenn. last Saturday. Con gressman Gibson was one of the speakers.

The following testimonials are the strongest proof of the medicines power to cure: A. J. MCCASDLESS, Bntler, Fa., 1893. MR. A. J. MCCANDLKSS: On the 2nd day of April, 1592, I com tneDced to use your new cure for one ol xif horses that had the heaves very bad, and continued to use the medicine for about forty days and the horse did not show any signs of a retuin of tnein. It is now about a year since I quit givin the medvc'vne and the horse has never sowed any signs of heaves, and I feel stislied that he is properly cured. W. C. CHISWKUL.
