—The mail carriers were so burdened
with valentines last Priday.that they wish
ed that boti) the valentines and the send
ers were in sh—, at Shenango Junction
The young folks always have and always
will consider it great sport to send valen
tines. but it is stated by the dealers in the
fragile messages of love that their sale
among those who consider themselves
grown up has fallen off largely. These
matters Miiaiige aloug tho lines of tho de
velopment in taste, and to some extent
are regulated by fashion. It is considered
preper now for an admiror to sond the ob
ject of his attentions a box of candy or a
bouqaet of flowers Fragrant roses aro
popular, and nothing is more appropriate
than the dainty flowers of spring, which
are now appearing in tho flower stores,
aoch as lillies of the valley, daffodils and
narcissus. Still, rnanv find that the
beautifully designed and printed cards
suit their parpose better, and in these
there are a uaaiber of novelties. The
lace-like valentines of paper, ornamented
with cupids and arrow-pierced hearts, will
always be :n demand, but tho cards are
crowding tbem to somo extent. In a
measure the cards follow the old lines,
there beiug many combinations of arrows,
with hearts and other seasonable designs.
Oue daintv arrow, with a genuine needle
point, pierced a heart which, on being
opened, revealed tho line, "There's noth
ing half so sweet in life as love s young
dream." Probably people no loager yonng
in years can find, il they look carefully
over tho stock in tho stores, handsome
cards or ornamented valentines bearing
tho old verso, which seemed so expressive
in their childhood days, reading:
"If you lovo mo
As I love you
N r o knife can cut
Oar love ia two."
The caricatures which wound
many a sensitive nature do not fiud as
ready a sale as in former years, but the
usual assortment could be seen in store
windows, and the doggerels honeate the
pictures seemed ninre cruel in their iasinn
atioi.3 than ever.
A ueodie loved a ball of yarn,
And nearly had a tit
Because it didn't care a daru.
Aad only answered: "STit!"

A West Virginia minister has been fined
$lO for taking a drink of whisky on Sun
day. At that figure he might as well have
had a quart.
Uncle Sam's endless chain of gold comes
high, but under this Democratic adminis
tration there doesn't appear to be any way
to get along without it.
Women suffragists complain of the in
equalities ol" "vills. Well, there's one kind of
a woman's will that noither law nor man
can break.
The Spiritualists of Philadelphia have
formed aa organization to keep oat of the

they kept out of the hands of tho police
wo wouldn't need any bobbies.
Warren McCreary, of Batler, president

Held Up.
Rev. M. J. Callahan of Brady's Bend,
met with an exciting experience on tho Ist
inst that he will not soon forget. He was
driving through the rain and mad along
the road to visit his charge at Petrolia and
when near the Kean well at a lonely part
of tho road a man stepped out and caught
hold of his horse's bridle. Rev. Callahan
told him to let go or he would shoot and
the man seeing that he drew his revolver
also brought one foith and quick as a flash
fired, and then ran. The astonished Rev.
shot after the retreating figure, but both
the shots missed and Rev. Callahan whip
ped up his horse and got out of sach un
comfortable quarters as last as possible.
The man, however, tired several shots af
ter him and the back of the buggy bears
the marks where the bullets hit, but fortu
nately not the diivor. Two tramps were
noticed in that neighborhood and it is sup
posed one ot them made the attempt at a
holdup, but in the darkness and rain the
little priest could not tell what his assail
ant looked liko. Rev. Callahan thinks the
man did not know who he was "holding
up" as he only had 85 cents in his pocket
at tho time. In the future he thinks it bet
ter not to tell a man who steps out and
seises hii horso's bridle that ho will shoot,
but simply blaze away.—3ast Brady lie

TUESDAY'S ELECTION.
Xotwithstanding the cold weather of
Tuesday, the candidates for the various
offices in which there was any contest, and
their friends, did considerable hustling and
spent most of the day at the polls. The
vote polled was the largest ever polled in
this town, over seventeen hundred.
The contest for Justices of the Peace,
with 3to elect, was the most interesting
fight and was no doubt the cause of getting
out the big vote; and resulted in the elec
tion of Messrs Anderson and Gilghrist, Re
publicans, and Keck, Democrat.
The Republicans elected all the School
Directors, while the Democrats captured
most of the Town Council. The fight for
High Constable resulted in favor of J. R.
Mathers.
The Republicans of Butler Township
elected their entire ticket. Harmony went
Republican, and for the Millerstown vote

PARK THEATRE.
THOMPSON'S "OLD HOJJEST EAD.'
FRIDAY, FEB 21st.
"The Old Homestead." like an old
frierd, C3mes to us with all "the old boys"
uad "the gals," and the rest ol the folks
that have helped to make the short hours
ol their former stay pass so pleasantly.
Tho characters who figure in "The Old
Homestead" are as familiar to theatre
goers as their own friends about tho city,
these stage people of Denman Thompson's
are a peculiar kind of people. All that
they do and all that they say—nay, more,
all that they ever did do or over will say—
will be brought within a space of three
hours. Yet those who have known Unole
Josh Whitcomb, Aunt 'Tildy, that good
natured old prevaricator, Cy Prime, and
'•tho rest of 'cm," ?eem to know their
whole lives. They do, in fact, [or the.e
three hoars are thoir lives. They are
known better than people off the stage
can be, for their every act and word is
known. Often the thought of them is
enough to bring a smile or a tear, and the
memory of thom may, aud does lighten,
many a gloomy boar. That these people
are so re*! and so tangible, is because they
have been created by a master mind, with
a master's consummate skill. They have
bad "originals'' in real lite, bat the in
stinct ol the master was no loss reqaired
to picture them before the world, so we
might get to know them, and to lovo them

CHARLES A. GARDNER, PARK THEATRE
MONDAY, FEB. 24th.
1
The appearance here of that cleverest of
German Comedians, Charles A. Gardner,
signalizes tho advent of a new play to our
city entitled "The Priiia Winner." It is
the most sucoosful of any of the plays Mr.
Gardner has ever produced. The story is
unravelled in the Austrian Tyrol, abound
ing in heart interest, depicting a charm
ing story ol love and devotion. The pic
turesque aud romantic country in whioh
the s'ory of "The Priao Winner" is laid,
has bepn fully taken advantage of. The
scenic investiture is exceedingly beauti/uJ,
as well ES a fae-smile ol this graphic
locality. It includes an exact reproduc
tion of au avalanche in the winter in tho
mountainous country. The action ot the
story has been enlivened by the introduc
tion of a troupe of Tyroloan singers and
danoeas, and the capitvating specialty of
tbo Rumloy children. Mr. Gardner will
at each performance sing several of the
songs whijh so materially added to his
faint, special attention being called to
"Apple Blossoms," which seems to have
become as big a favorite as was the "Li
lacs "
