ment on the necessity to curb this com
mon tendency of the healthy boy to
pitch into some other boy. The mother
of three wrestling boys whose united
ages barely make twenty, has watched
them in their rough play, disturbed
lest they should hurt each other, but

they will all be useful and illustrious

The Water Work* to Change
Hands.
"A special fn ::i Kittannin,- to the
Pittsburg Dispatch. <fcited Tuesday,
reads as follows
A bi>f deal, involving over $*25,010
and the transfer of the Bntler and War
ren Water Works from the original
parties holding the sf.x-k to other pur
chasers, has almost been completed j
About is years ago Junes B. Neale.
James McCnllough, Jr.. and Orier C.
Orr, all of th:- place, formed a com |
pany to construct a water company in
Bntler. a town then of between 8,000
4.<100 inhabitants.
From the the works proved
H decided su-eess, and at once gave an
impetus to th 'town, which until that
time had In-en without any water facil
ities. The town rapidly grew in popn
I lation. until to-day it has over 10,«»<H>
jieople. The water works were con
stantly enlarged to meet the inereaseed
requirements.
Aliout two years ago great difficulties
to the progress of the water plant arose
owing to the pollution of Connoqnenes
sinj; creek, and, although the other
stockholders were interested financially
in the preservation and prosperity of |
the institution, yet the responsibility
fell onto the original prospectors, who,
with remarkable energy promptly pro
ceeded to make such improvements as
would ena: le the plant to furnish a snf
ficent quantity of reasonably pur
water to the citizens of Butler, invest
iug a large amount of money jn the
same.
The same parties erected a water
plant at Warren, Pa., al>ont 15 years
ago, which they have successfully op
er-ited ever since. It has greatly con
duced to the growth and prosperity of
that thriving, progressive city.
Both plants have now reached a largi
capitalization and are principally own
ed by Me.«.«rs. Neale. Pollock, "McCnl
lough and the estate of the late Gricr
C. Or.-."
Both plants have, we learn. l>een pur
chased by the American Water Co.. or
Association: a coloration that has its
headquarters in Pittsburg, and which
is buying up all the water plants in the
neighborhood They purchased the
New Castle plant last week, and with
the Bntler and Warren plants will
own thirty-four.
