—Every boy should have his head, bis
heart and his hand educated. Let this
truth never be forgotten. By the pro
per education of the head he will l>e
taught what is good and what is evil,
.what is wise and what is foolish, what
is right and what is wrong. By the
proper education of the hesrt he will be
taught to love what is good, wise and
right and to hate what is evil, foolish
and wrong. And by proper education
of the hand he will be enabled to supply
bis wants, to add to his comforts and to
assist those around him. The highest
objects of a good education are to rever
ence and obey God and to love and serve
mankind. When wisdom reigns in the
head and love the heart, the man is ever
ready to do good; order and peace reign
around, and sin and sorrow are almost
unknown.

Miss Bernice Meals was run oner by
a passing buggy in front of the Court
House. Monday, but not seriously in
jured.
Herbert Rittner. of Bruin fell from
one of Gibson & Co. 's derricks on the
Kelly farm last Thursday and was in
stantly killed. He fell from the ljoard
up in the derrick, upon which he stood
while helping to pull the rods, a dis
tance of about 50 feet.
James Mulholland, of Water street,
had his left wrist badly cut by falling
against a piece of glass at the Standard
works, Wednesday of last week. This
is the first accident Mr. Mulholland has
had during his nine years experience in
the glass works.
Young Wiles of Fairview twp., who
was accidently shot in the stomach by
young Snow, a month or so ago. is out
riding a bicycle. The ball entered his
stomach, the doctors probed for it, but
couldn't find it—he passed it the next
Saturday—a most remarkable fact.
A fireman named Kestler, on the P.
& W. met with an odd accident at the
coaling station at Bakerstown, a few
days ago. When the coal was let down,
a pin in the chute l>ecame misplaced,
and a great mass of coal dropped upon
Kestler, knocking him down and cover
ing him. His jawbone was broken and
his face and head were badly bruised.
William J. Breaden, of W. Sunbury
was thrown from his buggy while on
his way to Butler, last Friday morning,
and had two ribs broken. His team
frightened near Muddycreek bridge and
ran off, and were caught by Andy and
John Barnhart who happened to be
ahead of him. Mr. Breaden was taken
to the home of his father-in-law, Dr.
Linn, and afterwards taken home.
Tracy Renshaw fell into ths chute at
Walter s Mill, last Saturday, and was
carried down the current, and swept
under the big rock, nothing but one
arm remaining in sight. Joe Ritter
saw that the boy was drowning, and
jumped in and pulled him out, and as
the current was strong and both lx>ys had
their clothes on. this was no easy task.
On Saturday afternoon a construc
tion train on the P. B. & L. E. ran
down a hand-car on the embankment
through J. Q. A. Kennedy's ground at
the edge of town. The hand-car -was
loaded with green paint and painters
who were returning from work on the
railroad bridges. The painters- jumped
for their lives, the hand-car was demol
ished, the railroad painted "Carnegie
green," two cars off the track, two hours
time lost.
More Robberies.
During Friday night last, some per
sons entered the store of the Ramsey
Bros., inPortersville, through the back
door; put clothing, hardware, jewelry,
etc., to the value of about a thousand
dollars in new grain sacks, and disap
peared. That same night sonielx»dy
hitched Jno. Neiper's bay team to his
wagon, and drove to the old Thos Dodds
farm near Mt. Chestnut, and deserted
it; and on the road between Mt. Chest
nut and Portersville several small arti
cles belonging to the Ramsey Bros ,
were found. Two donble setts of har
ness from Arehy Marshall's stable in
Portersville, disappeared thp same
night, and a lot of old sacks were left
in his hav-mow.
On Sunday Sheriff Dodds and others
questioned people along the roads lead
j ing north from the road between Mt.
Chestnut and Prospect as to any team
passing along Friday night or Saturday
morning but could secure no clue, but
since that word has come to Butler that
a gray team hauling a covered wagon
did pass the stone-house going north
Saturday, and as a man with a gray
team was in the vicinity of Portersville
last week, selling harness very cheap,
it may be that the same man who stole
all the harness in Buffalo twp., on Sun
day night the 18th inst., robbed Ram
sey's store in Portersville on Friday
night the 23rd.
Nothing has been heard of the
harness thieves. Besides the sets of
harness mentioned last week, they got
a single-set from W. H. Witte, of Sal
ver's Station.

tion of $1 per day is allowed.
A dog-case from Louisana was lately
before the Supreme Court of the United
States and Justice Brown relieved him
self as follows. "The very fact that
they are without protection of the
criminal laws shows that property in
dogs is of an imperfect or qualified na
ture, and that they stand as it were
between animals ferae naturae, in
which, until subdued there is no prop
erty and domestic animals in which
the right of property is complete."
1 The "Dog-on-Clitb" of the First Ward
will please make a note of this bit of
wisdom.
The Supreme Court of the State, in a
decision of much interest, holds that
• stickers'' have 110 rightful place on the
official ballot, and if allowed, invalidate
the ballot and the election should a suf
ficient number of them be received to
control the result. This decision was to
be exeected. Blank spaces are provided
on the official voting papers for the pur
pose of writing in the name of any one
desired to l>e voted for, and whose name
is not printed. To allow stickers would
disregard the letter and spirit of the
law. Stickers have no place 011 a se
cret ballot. They are themselves evi
dence of outside influence in making up
tile ballot.

Butler is to have a ''Land Improve- |
ment Co" and a committee has been !

Wick said that an option had been se- j
cured on 10!) acres of the Walker farm j
east of town, which was to cost $lO,- j
000. The idea of the land company I
was to pur'-hase this tract, have switch
es built to it from tin- different rail
roads, donate part of the land to inanit- !
Picturing companies who might want j
locations, and reserve the rest to sell in
lots for building purposes. In this way
the share holders in the land company j
would not only aid the town but would
realize on their investment. He had
made a partial canvass of the business '
people of the town and as a result stock t
in the enterprise to the amount of SB,- j
500 had been taken. About $20,000 '
would be necessary to make a success
of the project, and the meeting was ;
called to have the citizens express their ,
views of the project.

The Wallace Show.
Heralded far and wide as the highest
clpss circus in the world comes the
Great Wallace Shows to Butler. Thurs
day .May 27th. Mr. Donovan and Mr.
Harvey, agents for this big concern are
in town, attending to the vast amount
of business necessary to properly intro
duce their attraction to our people, and
arrange for lot, feed, bill boards, hotels,
etc. This show must be something ttn
nsal and immense this year, as the press
are praising it in most unmeasured
terms. The Kansas City World, saying
the aged axiom "when you have seen
one circus you have seen them all ' don't
hold good with the Wallace Shows, for
it differs in a great many essential par
ticulars. The courtesy shown patrons,
and the freedom from "skin" games,
and the extreme high tone of every
thing connected with the Wallace Show
is widely commented on also.
We will all be glad to see a show of
this high character.

accountant, lx>ok-keeper or shorthand
writer,don't expect to attain that distinc
tion by taking a cheap course, or a
course because it is rheap. Never expect
something for nothing. Pay skilled in
structors prices that skilled labor natural
|ly commands. Get the best. We hire
| only the best teachers. Business men
! have confidence i.i our methods. We

j That's business, too.
Note 3. If you area school-teacher,
speml your vacation with us; acquire
the art of shorthand and typewriting, or

, mouth of Deer creek was shot and kill
ed by a negro Tuesday afternoon.
James Kelly the superintendent of j
the work and one of his men took a !
skiff and rowed out to Fourteen Mile !
island, on which one of the abutments j
is erected. As they pulled the l»oat up
on the shore of the island they met |
! three colored men who had crossed I
! from the othe rside of the island. Kelly !
| remarked to them that they had better J
j not touch the skill, as he was going to (
i return in a moment. The men ."-aid all i
j right, but they had gone but a short I
distance when they jumped into the j
boat and pulled for the south shore
Lawrence saw them with the boat !
and went down to the bank to meet
theui and get the boat to send it back
to the island for Kelly. What words
passed between him and the three ne
groes is not known, as the other work
men were about 25 yards away. A i
: shot was heard and the workmen- look- I
ed in time to see the three negroes with i
drawn revolvers. One, a man wearing |
a red sweater had his weapon leveled at j
Lawrence and the smoke was curling j
from the muzzle. Lawrence stood up- !
right for a moment and then fell in a
heap. As soon as he fell the three men I
ran up the bank and started up Panther
hollow into the country. The bridge
workmen dropped their tools and gave
chase.
They the men for nearly
half a mile, when the railroad camp of i
Contractor \V S. Thomas, who is at i
work on the Butler and Pittsburg line, j
was reached. "Jeff" Johnston, the j
cook of the camp, and Peter Flonse, !
stable foreman here took up the chase. I
The negroes turned on them and iired j
at least a dozen shots at them. One of i
the bullets passed through the apron j
Johnston wore and several others just i
missed him and Flonse. They followed
at a safe distance for half a mile when
they gave out and quit the pursuit.
