—lt was a long rain, longer than
Qneen Vic's, but it seems to be over.
—Evans City will have an old-fash
ioned celebration of the glorious 4th.
—The slag from E. Wayne St. is be
ing used to improve E. Quarry and Mill
Sts.
—East Clay St.. has been opened at
last. It has been on the council tapis
for several years.
—The State Medical Association, and
the Baptist Church Societies met in
Pittsburg, this week.
The Elgin Butter Factory at Moni
teau is a grand success. Moss. Gross
man is the manager.
—Burglarious burglars burgled the
"Bessie" station at Branchton last Fri
day night and baggwl some booty.
—And now some of the papers an
nounce that the seventeen-year locusts
are to eat us out this season.
—Because you have a few notions in
your head you need not think you're a
department store.
—We often wonder why some people
always get trusted at home and go ont
of town to spend their money.
—lmmense catches of Lake Erie blue
pike are being made and the wholesale
price has gone down to a minnow-mum.
—Have you seen John R. Grieb's
Honey boy? He's the IK>SH infant in
town. Look in the show-window as
you pass.
—You will soon be ordering your
supply of ice for the summer months,
and when yon do remember Jno. A.
Bichey, at the bakery.
—A buggy was stolen from Daniel
Sbnster of Buffalo twp. last Saturday
night. The thief was seen driving
through Sarversville at 1 P. M.
—A Corry editor makes the startling
statement that there are -several can
nibals in that town-—yonng men who
live off their parents.
—A hi# blast at the Jamisonville cut
last Friday swamped the track, ami \
blocked travel nntil evening. One man
on the morning train said the delay
cost him S4OO.
-The P. R. It. and P, & W. time ta
bles on our Ist. page are incorrect.
They were printed before the new ones
were received at this office. See note
«L>£ changes made, on this page.
—An exchange says that until a man
is absolute master of the bicycle he
had better not attempt to raise his hat
to some fair acquaintance, or the im
pression he makes may not be altogeth
er such a one as he had hoped.
—W. R. Eakin and John H. Camp
bell have dissolved partnership in the
the grocery business -Mr Eakin retir
ing. Mr. Campbell will continue the
business at the old stand near the Cen
tre Ave. bridge, and will keep "good,
honest goods at the very lowest, cash
prices.
The alley between the south ends
of Main and McKean Sts., is being ex
tensively used now on account of the
paving operations on E. Wayne, and
yet wagons are being allowed to ob
struct it. One runaway has already oc
cured in it, due to an upturned wagon
bed, and more may follow.
—The cry of the whippoorwill was
heard during the past week, for the
first time this season. It is a migra
tory bird, and the Indians used to re
gard it as the herald of summer. When
they heard its first cries in the twilight
they considered it a notification to
•"plant tha ground."
—Houses are scarce in Butler, and it
is seldom that a really desirable house
can be had at a reasonable figure. How
ever we know of a very desirable, seven -
room, cottage house, 011 an elevated lo
cation, just outside the gas li mit, but
with spring water and large lot. that
can be had cheap. For parti culars in
quire at this office
—Tree planting shonld be made one
of the adjuncts of the movements for
road improvements. Shade trees along
the highway add to the beauty of the
landscape and to the value of adjoining
property. The time will come when
this matter will receive the attention
which it deserves, in town and conntry.
The shade secured in this way during
the heat of summer is grateful to man
and Iwast. Every jwrson who plants
and cares for a tree by the roadside or
on the town sidewalk, is a philanthro
pist.
-The individual merchant who 'ob
jects to advertising in church or charity
programs finds himself unable to with
hold his announcement from such me
diums because his refusal to advertise,
perhajm, results in a loss of customers
among the people who are soliciting for
the gratuity. When, however, all the
merchants in a town agree not to ad
vertise in programs of any kind, no
merchant isupt to lose any custom, for
his rival refuses as well as he. and all
axe likely to save considerable money.
The newspapers are recording many
agreements of this character.

—One reason why the people never
pay attention to signs and advertise
ments daubed on old fences, stables
and bridges is because they do not
know whether they are reading the ad- .
vertisement of some firm that is still in
business, or one that has been dead for
years. When people read the advertise
ments in a newspaper that is up to date
they know that the advertiser is alive
and doing business.
—At a special meeting of Council i
last night it was decided to pave I
North St. from Franklin to Main this i
year and the balance of the street next '
year- the contract for the stone work
of the Mercer St. bridge was awarded i
to Peier Schenck; an offer by Mr. '
Crouch to furnish slag for streets was ]
accepted: the bridge on Mercer St. was -
awarded to the Canton Bridge Co. a
petition for the paving of Fairview ave.
was referred to the paving committee.
- The opening of Joseph Home &
Go's store in Pittsburg Monday, breaks
all previous records in the history of
mercantile business. Just fourteen
days after the great fire a complete ,
stock has been gathered together, ready
for the purchaser. The rapid work is
phenomenal. The Dry Goods Economist,
a recognized authority in the drygoodsl
world, has the following to say in a
telegram sent to the firm:
"We know of no such instance of rap
id work as you have aaeomplished in re
establishing your immense business in
the brief period of fourteen days, twoof
which were Sundays We l)elieve yon
have made a record."
The opening of the new store, corner
of Cecil Alley and Perm Avenue, adjoin
ing the Home office building and across
the alley from where the fire raged, is
considered an instance of good luck by
the firm, as the building now occupied
is eight stories high, 125 feet front and
205 feet deep.
New Buildings.
The trustees of the English Lutheran
Church of Butler are taking bids for
their new building.
The School Board of Zelienople are

Know How to Handle Crowds.
The handling of big crowds has been
reduced to a science by the great Wal
lace shows. It provides more than one
ticket wagon, has several entrances and
plenty of employes to assist its patrons
in seeing its wonders and getting seats
that are satisfactory. The arrange
ment of its stages and rings is such that
110 seat is bad. Nor does this circus re
serve nearly all the space; only about
one fifth of the seates are extra. Al
though thousands see the show daily,
they . are handled so perfectly as t«
avoid all jostling At Butler, Thursday

Circus Without Gamblers.
No gamblers or swindlers of any class

secondary consideration. Such shows
are to be given a wide berth. The
Wallace Show, not being of this char

on'y the best teachers. Business men
have confidence i.i our methods. We

spend your vacation with us; acquire
tiie art of shorthand and typewriting, or

"THE BEST
I've seen for the money," saiil an enthusiastic buyer
who had visited every store, reserving ours for the
lust, "and when 1 leave my £12.00] feel as if 1 had an
siS.oo suit for it." Nothing new to us, we always
did claim to give the best—always felt as if the pub
lic knew it too. We would like you to compare any
thing you see elsewhere for SIO.OO or even #12.00
with our
$7.50.
