Deputy Attorney General Wilbur F.
Reeder has advised State Treasurer B.
J. Haywood that county commis
sioners snould insist on the collection of
the tax regardless of the opinioir of
Judge Acheson. The question was
raised by the George V. Chessrown

Tin* Supreme Court has decided that
poultry running at large is wild game,
and the partv on whom they trespass
has a perfect right to kill them. L nder
this decision a man who runs a garden,
adjoining the premises of a man who
keeps chickens, ought to be able to
keep his table fairly supplied with
poultry. This would affirmatively
solve the question of whether it pays to
keep a garden.
There was a base-ball match or mix
up in Esq. Gilghrist.s office last Friday
afternoon. Hames and Blue sued Jack
son Robinson, the colored manager of
the Butler Base Ball team of the past
summer for some back salary . Robinson
referred them to John Jack who acted
as Treasurer and Secretary and kept the
account in the name of Robinson &
Jack . Jack said all the money was gone,
and the Esq. gave judgment in favor of
ball players against Robinson.
"Reason is the life of the law." saith
the great master, Coke; "nay, the com
mon law itself is nothing else but rea
son." Now* reason is that power by
which we are able to combine means for
particular ends. For example, as we
learn from am address from Mr. Everett,
son of his distinguished father, a gen- i
tleman who sat in Congress lately and
who now aspires to the chair of Govern
or of Massachusetts, a poor clergyman '
was anxious to obtain hymn books <
cheaply for his congregation, and was
delighted to hear from a firm that it i
would supply them gratuitously, pro- ;
vided they might contain certain adver
tisements. The books were received. '■
and the minister, who expected the ad
vertisements to be on separate leaves,
which could be torn out, was surprised
not to see any in the books. But on the 1
first Sunday after, the congregation
fonnd themselves singing:
Hark, the herald angels sing,
Bullhead's pills are just the thing;
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
Two for a man and one for a child.
This was the combining of means to a
particular end, the exercise of reason,
which is the life of the common law.
The preacher bargained with all the
terms plainly before him, and if he did
not grasp their possible meanings, that
was his own fault. Through failure to
do so he suffered much ridicule; all the
world has laughed at him, but there
could be no recovery for him at law.
He should have known what he was do
ing.—News.

the income of the institution from tui

must also be profitable at the figures
given we cannot see why our Legislature
voted this University, and also Lehigh

why Hastings signed the bills.

PARK THEATRE.
THE ISLE OF CHAMPAGNE.—SATUR
DAY, OCT. 2d.
We have had our political wave, our
wave of financial depression and our
tariff wave and now the country has set
tted down to something like growing
prosperity and proposes to enjoy the
wave of mirth and merriment which
comes to us with the year s theatrical
season, which, like spring, is one of the
most welcome of the many when it ful
fills our wishes and proves true to its
destined purpose- that is, to drive dull
care away. Perhaps of the many enter
tainments now before the public, none
will be more welcome here and so ade
quately fill the bill in all respects as the
'•lsle of Champagne" opera company,
which comes to the Park Theatie on
Saturday, with Richard Golden and
Miss Kathering Germaine as co-stars in
the leading roles. Two artists of such
opposite method are seldom met in con
junction and that is perhaps one reason
why this opera eclipses so many others
in the theatrical orbit and why the
theatre-going public is so highly de
lighted with their empyrean transit.
Mr. Golden is a high-class comedian
who has won fame and gained friends
and reputation by his ability to make
people laugh. Miss Germaine is one of
the most beautiful women and sweet
est singers that ever graced a stage and
first won great prominence as Francisco
in DeKoven & Smith's opera. The Fenc
ing Master.
PAYTON'S BIU COMEDY COMPANY.
During next week Payton's big com
edy company will hold the boards at
the Park Theatre. Payton's comedy
company does not carry a brass band

company of recognized players who are
capable of giving a performance equal
to any of onr high priced organizations.
Each play is a production. Every piece
of scenery and all properties, such as
pictures, carpets easels, mirrors, lamps,
chandeliers, madallions, palace, electric
calcium, stage furniture, are carried by
Payton's comedy company in a special
60 foot car. Everything carried this
season is entirely new. The opening
play fqr Monday evening will be that
beautiful society play, The Banker's
Daughter. Ladies will be admited free
Monday evening if accompanied by one
paid 30c ticket.
; Ladies tickets for Monday Evening can
be hail at Reed's Book store.

A. M. decided to allow the salaries of
secretary and his clerk remain as they
are. The per capita tax was fixed at 32
cents intead of 84. The report of tfce

business that afternoon by presenting

stalled and the council a ajourned to
meet at New Castle September 3, 1898.
About 175 veterans of the sixth Heavy
Artillery met in Butler last Thursday
at their annual reunion. The local G.
A. R. and U. V. L. with the Germania
band met the out-of-town comrades at
the P. & W. station in the morning.
At 10:30 a. m. the reunion was called
to order in the court room by I. J. Mc-
Candless, Chairman of the Committee
of arrangements. An address of wel
come was made by J. M. Greer, and re
sponded to by W. H. H. Wasson, of
Pittsburg. At noon the veterans dined
at the Park and Waverly hotels and
Goss' restaurant. The afternoon meet
ing was addressed by Maj. S. P. Long,

McPherson Post drum corps of Pitts

greeting each other and recalling events
of "auld lang syne."
Kinzua Bridge Excursion.
About fifty Bntlerites, including a
football team, took in the excursion
over the narrow guage divison of the P.
& "W. railroad to Kinzua Bridge, Mc-
Kean county, Pa., on Saturday. The
train left Butler at 5:30 a. m. and ar
rived at the big bridge about noon. The
bridge is a trestle-work structure span
ning Kinzua creek. It is over iJOO
feet high and probably half a mile lone.
After a short stay at the bridge the ex
cursionists came back to Kane, 15 miles
this way. That afternoon the Kane
baseball club played a game with the
Foxburgs. Kane was ahead in the
score, but the game was given to Fox
burg through some misunderstanding.
Then the Butler football team and the
Kanes got after each other. Both teams
showed a need of practice and coaching,
although they put up a fairly good
game Kane scored one touchdown and
won the game 6to 0. Considering that
the Kane club averaged at least fifteen
pounds more per man than the Butlers,
our Injys done well indeed. The Butler
players were H. Miller, A. Donaldson.
E. Lantz, U. Williamson. B. McCntch
eson, C. Linn. W. Hayes, B. Forsythe,
C. Smith, E. Negley, and R. Ritchey.
Hayes had his hand hnrt during the
game, and C. A. Koos, of Parker,finish
ed in his place. The boys were all
highly pleased with their treatment by
the Kane people, but they have no re
spect for the judgment of the fat indi
vidual who refereed the game.
The excursionists arrived home about
2 a. m. Sunday morning.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
Fourteen ladies, married and single,
of Lebanon, congregated at the home of
Jonas Houser. at Fairland, last week,
where they tendered a genuine surprise
to Mrs. Houser, who reached the 80 th
milestone in life. After a lunch was
served the women went to the woodpile
and sawed a lot of wood for the old
couple, which was immensely enjoyed.
The schools of the State Institution
for Feeble Minded of Western Pennsyl
vania at Polk were formerly opened by
special exercises last Thursday. The
attendance was about 2,000, and nearly
and nearly every country MI the State
was represented. Special trains were
run from Titusville. Oil City. Franklin,
New Castle, Mercer and Sharon. The
26 large buildings, all connected by a
corridor, were inspected by the guests
between the hours of 1 and 3 o'clock.
The exercises in Kerlin hall consisted of
prayer by Rev. Dr. T. Edwin Brown,
pastor of the First Baptist, church
of Franklin and singing of "America"
by special choir. Addresses were made
by Judge C. Heydrick, of Franklin, pres
ident of the building commission: S. M.
Jackson, of Apollo, president of the
board of trustees and Maholon H.
Dickinson' of Philadelphia, president of
the board of charities.
On Saturday last judgements were
entered in Franklin against Senator W.
H. Andrews, of Titusville, to the
amount of nearly $19,000. The largest
single claim wss in favor of attorney
Julins Byles, of Titusville, who is said
to be doing business for the W. B.
Roberts estate. Mr. Andrews owns an
extensive stock farm inCherrytreetown
ship, with some oil production, and al
so has laud in Crawford county.
John J. Sullivan, of Allegheny,
secured work at the Vulcan foundry, in
New Castle, and boarded a Pittsbnr g
and Western freight t-iain to save fare.
Near EUwood City he noticed that
sonieth ing was wrong with one of
the axles of the car. The train stopped
on the grade and Sulliv an jumped
bown. The train had stopped on a
trestle, and he fell 60 feet to the rocks.
He screamed as he fell and a brake
man found him unconcious. He re
vived snfficently to tell about the axle,
and probably saved the tram. He had
both arms broken and was otherwise
injured, and now lies at the hospital in
a critical condition.
At the Cambridge fair, last Friday
Miss Minnie Lamont. the aeronaut,
had a narrow escape from death. She
made a balloon ascent, and when about
half a mile high she cut loose from the
balloon and made the parachute drop.
She struck in French Creek, just
below the iron bridge, where the water
is ten feet deep. Her hnsbrnd. Prof.
Bassett, plunged in and kept her afloat
until a boat rescued them. It required
the services of physicians to restore the
lady to consciousness.
The Martinsburg W. Va. Improve
ment. Loan and Building association
has failed with a loss to stockholdars
of SBO,OOO. The only hope of the stock
holders is that the association will rea
lize on its loans to the Brooklyn Bra-is
works and the Auburn Wagon com
pany, aggregating SBO,OOO. These in
dustries are now being operated by re
ceivers. The assocation was organized
to loom the town in 1892, and since
then $200,000 has been sunk .and a dozen
wealthy men broken. The town's busi
ness iw severely shocked and more fail
ures are expected. Many poor people
lose their sayings in the failure.
Two prisoners escaped from jail at
Welsh, W. Va. Monday night, by dig
ging through a brick wall. One had
been convicted of inurdar.
The big pot glass works at Bellefonte
Pa. started up yesterday, after recently
doubling its capacity.
Monday night burglars tortured and
robbed Mrs. Mershimer and her son
Adam, who is a cripple, living in Law
rence county.
One day last week Eli Campbell, of
Westmoreland Co. went out hunting.
In the woods he met two men with
guns. They made inquiries about a
good place to find squirrels. Campbell
went with them to a place where they
found some squirrels. His friends
did not get a shot, but Campbell shot
three. His companions proved to be
detectives who arrested him and took
him to Latrobe where he was fined $lO
for each squirrel killed and $5 costs—
s3s in all. He will be pretty careful
with whom he hunts game- put of sea
son in the future.
