and shorthand.
—Here's a note recently issued by hy
gienic authority: One of the most im
portant rulss for the preservation of facial
beauty is that one should go to sleep smil
ing, or at loast placid-looking. The per
son who goes to sleep with anxious or
angry wrinkles on her forehead and about
her month keeps them there while she is
asleep, and thoy soon become ineradicable.
—People get off jokes on the weather
buieau and little attention is paid to them.
But under the area ot high pressure lately
recorded the Pittsburg observers have per
petrated a funny thing themselves. Ilero
it is: "A peculiar feature of the weather
this morning is the absence of rain or
snow, Ol all the stations reporting from
Canada and the United States none report
precipitation except Louisville, Ky.,
where a -light traca fell during the last 12
hours, the first time on record where Ken
tucky took water when others declined.
—lf a doctor makes a mistake ho burio n
it; if J merchant make- i mistake iie never
tell." it; if a lawyer r.'.akes a mistake he
crawls out of it; but if au editor maket a
mistake he puts it on a large sheet oi paper
for tho world to look at, and in every com
munity there are crank- who think they
are modpls of wisdom because they oc
casionally discover thorn. — F.x.
—A novel way of baking potatoes is
with a sausage filling. I -•* largo potatoes
and cut a slice from one si.lc an inch an J
a half in size. Take a small scoop and re
move part of the inside. Fill with sausage
meat, or chopped veal and well sea
soned may be used. Cover the filled with
tho slice of potatoes cut off. Stand tho
potatoes in a baking pan and ba'se in a
moderate oven.
—There is considerable agitation in
Meadvillo over the curfew ordinance pend
ing in the Councils, which provides for
keeping children and youtli ofi the streets
after a certain honr at rieht. A mass
meeting was held in that city Monday
night in tho interests of the ordinance.
Our Oil City neighbors are similarly agi
tated in regard to mad dog legislation.
In their case its a few-cur ordinance that
is wanted, not a curfew law.
—A peculiar case was decided in fayor
of the defendant. A. L. Confer, at 1 rank
lin the other day. Confer formerly owned
the Empire refinery at Eeno ana when it
burned received $7,000 from insurano com
panies. He afterwards collected $27,000
from a railroad company, because the firo
originated from sparks from a locomotive.
The insurance companies tried to recover
their money on the ground that ho was not
entitled to double compensation, but the
jury thought otherwise.
—Te'l me, ye arctic winds, that shake
my humble coi, do ye not know somo
place where candidates are nott Some
lone and pleasant dell, on this great
mundane s,)hero where there s no politics
each day of all the year? Some narrow
strip of land, no matter how remote,
where every man you meet does not ex
pect your vote? The strong wind heaved
a sigh, then tightened up its girth, and
said. "The pl.toe exists, but not on earth.''
—A lady writing to the New York
Sun says: "I im a young lady—a house
keeper; have been so for a year pact, in
which time I have oniy been out six times.
While not a beauty, I have as many good
features as the average gill. I eertainly
know that. lam thoroughly competent to
keep house, sew and cook, and do the
various things that go to make a happy
home. Is there any one wants met"'
Thero are undoubtedly plenty of men who
want her, but they didn't know about her
until she spoke. It pays to advertise.
—A. J. Palm, editor of the '-Messenger"
lies very ill at his residence, oorner of
Willow street and Park avenue. Mead
ville. Saturday morning ho delivered an
address before the teachers of Pittsburg,
and soon after the close ol the lecture was
taken with a chill. Against the advice of
physicians he left for home, and received
medical attention at Butler' He was ad
vised to remain here, but would not,
and also declined to go to Mercer hospital.
He arrived in Meadvillo Saturday evening,
and was conveyed to his homo. Ris ail
ment is said to be neuralgia of the muscles.
—The connundrum social ij the rage in
some Ohio towns this winter. In speaking
of one held in Warren recently the
Tribune says that the connnndrum social
and supper at the Methodist church
parlors last evening was a unique and en
joyable affair. The bill of fare read some
thing like this: Spring offering, 2 cts; An
antidote for love, 3 cts; Noah's son, 4 cts;
A lubricator, 1 cent. The fair young
waitresses could hardly contain themselves
as the ordors wero given. When placed
before tho hungry and expectant mortal
tho above order proved to be as follows:
water, pickles, ham, butter. Then it
would become necessary to order again
and so on until a full supper was ordered.
—What story-telleri. traveling-mea aro
Riding in tho train the other night with
one, he told a bed-bug story something
like this.
Some years ago he stopped at a small
hotel in Nebraska, and shortly after retir
ing became aware of the fact that he had
lots of bed-fellows He got up and looked
at his bed and thought ho could have
scraped them oat of tho cornere by the
table.spoonful; then he shook himself and
slept on the floor.
Next morning he mentioned the matter
to tho host, or Charley as hs called him;
and Charley thought he was but slightly
acquainted in that country, and took him
down to his chicken coop, where he could
have secured theiu by the shoyel-fu'.l, and
which he had to whitewash every day to
keep the chickens in, and turned over t,
plank which was covered with them, etc,
etc. Then the traveling man wandered
down into West Virginia, and told of eat
iug at tables to which his coat sleeves
would stick, and of making a meal on soar
milk and sad bread, and other experiences
A delightful li fo does the traveling-man
load.

ship, four miles west of Meadville, was de
stroyed by fire, and the following day

It is somewhat remarkable that tbis part
of the old hundred-foot development
should have escaped tho wildcatter for eo
many years; it furnishes a striking illus
tration of how firmly the belt theory is
fixed in the opinion of operators. One or
two dry holeu in advance of what is
thought to be the course the bolt is ex
tending discourages tho holders of advance
leases and yoars after some one comos
along and drills a well and demonstrates
that the previous owner had a good thing,
but did not inos it.

HARK THiiATRE,
"> T IOBE" FRIDAY JAN. 31.
Miss Minerva Dorr, the charming come
dienne who so successfully played the tit'e
rclo in Mr. Frohman's 'Jane' company last
season, will be seen in the fantastic comedy
success "Ifiobe" by Harry and Edward
Panlton, authors of that most popular
comic opera, "Eruiinia." Miss Dorr will
be supported by Mr. Frank Xorcross, for
man 3' years connected with the Frohman
and A" M. Palmer stock companies.
In "Xiobe,"'the ancient and modern
aro grotesquely blended. It will be re
membered thJt Niche was the Queen of
the Thebes, who ilarcl to compare herself
well Ea ona and was tiansforuled, through
the wrath of that goddess into marble
fiom which tears constantly flowed. The
authors have made f* very unique use of
this mythological story. The plot of their
play is briefly as follows:
l'eter Amos Dunn ; manager of the Un
iversal Insurance company, has insured for
a friend named Tompkins, an art crank, a
certain valuable statue of Ifiobe. For
safety he elects to send it to his own home
which is under the dominion of his wife's
family (two sisters and a brother) who
live with him. Dunn is not a sentimental
ist, he is a decent, good-hearted ignoramus
without too great a regard for the truth
and with very few ideas beyond the one
suggested in his catch phrase—"there is
no money in .'t " He is having the elec
tric put into bis house and the workmen
intrusted with the insulation wrapped the
wire around the feet of the statue Niobe.
When the electric current is turned on, it
vivifies the statua which promptly strolls
d own the stage and holds a conversation with
Dunn in a vein of repartee which is exceed
ingly clever and amusing. Dunn's family
have gone to the theatre to see •'Pygma
lion and Galatea" and, ere they return, he
induce) the fair Niobe to change her flow
ing robes for the modern ooeiume o»" a gov
orneds, who has sent her portmanteau on
before her and has not herself arrived, and,
in this guise, she is introduced to the fam
ily Complications of tho drollest kind,
I)amorous i;i ideas and execution, heart
burnings and jealousies ensue, but in the
end, all is made pleasant and the elderly
proprietor of the statue makes her his wife,
for she does not, lue Galatea, go back to
marble. "Xiobe comes to the Park
Theatre, Friday Jan. 31, with a capable
company of comedians.
FORGIVEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5.
The old time Butler fayorito, "For
given," will be given in the Park Theatre,
Wednesday, February 5, by an unusually
strong company.
SI.NBAD is COMING Thursday, FEBRUARY 0,
After a great (leal ol correspondence,
both by mail and telegraph, Manager
Burckhalter, of the Park Theatre, has
secured the famous I). Henderson's Ameri
can Extravaganza Co., which will produce
Sinbad, the Sailor, at the Park on Thurs
day, February 6. To secure this great at
traction Manager Burckhalter had to guar
antee the company S6OO, the highest prioe
yet paid to bring a theatrical attraction to
Butler. Sinbad comes with all the original
cast ot the American Extravaganza Com
pany, which played at the Chicago Aud
itorium during the World's Fair, ana has
