LOCAL AND GENERAL,
This town is full of culture,
And literary lore.
We love the dilettante.
And all great men adore.
We crown with greenest myrtle.
Those worthy of renown.
Hence there was much rejoicing.
When John L. came to town.
—Christmas gifts in all our stores.
—Several of our stores are closed to
day.
—Butler is to have a skating-rink this
winter.
—Tuesday would pass for a winter s
day, anywhere.
—Take a look at the address tab on
your CITIZEN and see what it says.
—A little bag of quicklime put among
steel articles will prevent their rusting.
—Mice abhor camphor, and will
not visit drawers or closets in which it
is kept.
—Bad little schoolboys are already
counting the days until Christmas va
cation.
—Geo. H. Adams, Butler's old favor
ite, at the Park Theatre, this afternoon
and evening.
—At West Snnbury a handsome new
house is nearing completion for Ed
ward Young.
—Zickrick's new steam-laundry on
W. Cunningham St., did its first wash
ing and ironing last Thursday.
—J. L. Turner, of the Turner mines,
at Ferri s, on the Hilliard Branch,
needs fifty coil miners, immediately.
—A 5-year-old bay horse was stolen
from the barn of W. W. Grossman in
the rear of N. Main street, Saturday
night.
—There are a large number of good
farms lying idle throughout Butler Co.
and all of them would pay if worked
rightly.
—A convention of legless men is soon
to be held in Philadelphia; but nothing
is said about a convention of tongue
less women.
—Monthly reception of the Y. M. C.
A. Thanksgiving evening; fine program,
basket ball game and general good time
promised.
—Some mighty hunters from Pitts
burg visited W. Snnbury a few days
ago and hired some other fellows to
shoot them a string of game.
—The Ridgeway Concert Co. enter
tained a large and appreciative audience
last Thursday evening in the Park The-
I atre. The next number of the Y. M. C.
A. course will be the Ladies Sextette on
Dec. 14. Six hundred season tickets
have been sold.
—The Nashua A. C. Club of Pitts
burg will play a foot ball game with
the Y. M. C. A. team at the Ball Park,
Thaksgiving afternoon. If the weather
is at all endurable, a large crowd will
attend as is always the case on Thanks
giving day. The Nashuas are one of
the strongest teams in Pittsburg.
—Under the new school law, provid
ing for the distribution of the annual
appropriation the president and direc
tors of each school board are required
to make returns under oath to the
county superintendent in November of
each year, giving the actual number of
paid teachers in their respective dis
tricts. A failure to make this report
is punishable by a forfeiture of one-third
of the appropriation.
—The new general store building of
Wm. Humphrey & Son? at Portersville,
erected on the site on the one burned
last spring, is undoubtedly one of the
finest in the county outside of Butler
borough. It is a two-story frame, cost
S4OOO, is completely sewered and plumb
ed, lighted by gas with improved burn
ers, heated and ventilated by furnace,
has an elevator running from the cellar
to the second floor, is fitted with every
mercantile convenience and kept in the
neatest order by the enterprising pro
pnetors.
—C. A. Jewell is having an electric
mining machine plant constructed at
his coal mines in Butler county. Steam
power will run a large dynamo, furn
ishing the motive power to two mining
machines, which will be used to "bear
in" or undermine the coal vein, which
will then bs wedged down and loaded
in car*:. Each machine will do the
work of about thirty men. The mines
will soon be in operation with the new
machinery, and will have an output of
800 tons per diem.—Grove City Tele
phone.
—A movement is on foot among the
merchants of Mercer, Lawrence and
Butler counties to form an association
to raise means and employ agents to
run down and convict the gang of
thieves who have been committing so
many burglaries against the country
j merchants and farmers. A wiser move
than this could not be made and we do
not hesitate to say that systematic
search and prosecution will have the ef
fect of stopping the ontlaws' depreda
tions. The same treatment that the no
torious Wm. Wilson, with alias, is get
ting is what they need, R. McKinney
of Plain Grove, Mercer county, is doing
the corresponding for the merchants.
—New schedule on the narrow-guage.
Train for Kane at 9.50 A. M. and for
West Clarion at 5:35 P. M. The 8.05
A. M. train in and the 7:10 P. M. train
out are off: and the branch to Clarion
has been abandoned. West Clarion
the station at the intersection of the
Shippenville pike will hereafter be the
station for Clarion. "The cause of this
change is the fact that from the Clarion
Junction to the town of Clarion, a dis
tance of 7 miles, the road crosses two
very high trestles and the bridge over
the Clarion river, and the grade is very
heavy. The trestles and bridge have
been in very bad condition, and in fact
were considered dangerous, and they
mnst soon have been rebuilt or they
could not be used longer The business
on this branch did not justify snch an
expense and they have now decided to
abandon that section. It will proye a
great inconvenience to the business in
terests and traveling public, and a town
the size of Clarion without railroad fa
cilities nearer than a mile and a half is
an oddity."
'lis in ourselves. a* ftkakespeare says
That we are thus, or tlins.
Ami no one- without industry
Was ever worth a cnss.
And eaoii man weaves bis destiny.
Of poverty or pelf-
A garland fur humanity.
Or rope to hang himself.

—Matinee at the Park Theatre, this
afternoon.
—The U. P. church lot looks better
since being sodded.
—The School Board decided not to
bny additional ground in the first ward
—lf a man has the right stuff in him
it is sure to come out. That's what
makes some men's noses so red. 4
—The weather prophets predict IS
deep snows this winter, and that "tired
feeling" is coming over tho man with a
long sidewalk.
—' Please uivf- me ten stamps.
What denomination, my child? I don't
know, papa is a Presbyterian maybe
that kind would suit."'
—Three Butler foot ball teams expect
to play today: the Y. M. C. A. at home;
the High School at Evans City, and a
picked team at Foxbnrg.
—Dressed hogs are beginning to con
stitnte part of the loads coining in from
the rural districts. The town also has
a few of its own the year 'round.
—The father of a colicky boy "nas one
thing for which to be grateful, and thai
is that he doesn't live in a country
where the nights are six months Ion;?.
—The boy who can trade jack-knives
and still remain free from sin. is not a
youth calculated to make a successful
promoter of giant enterprises when he
becomes a man.
—lt has been announced authorita
tively that Spain doesn't want Uncle
Sam's "good offices.'' That is all right:
most of the good offices already have
been disposed of anyway.
—The last of the Butler delegation of
old soldiers arrived home <*l Saturday
from Chattanooga. Thev i*;port an ex
cellent time and speak in the most
glowing terms of Southern hospitality.
They all brought home with them me
mentoes —such as bullets, cannon balls,
cotton, canes, etc.
—Edwin F. Atkins, the economist
and statistician, had ar ; artk-Je in the
Fornm, lately, protesting against the
introduction and extension of Mie beet
root industry in this country, for eco
nomic and international reasons, but
the real reason why the production of
beet sugar should not be encouraged is
that it is unfit tor uuuian consumption,
its continued use will sicken anybody.
—As it's now the timo when the bike
must be put away f<,r the winter a bint
011 the care ot the machine is, season
able. The bicycle should be thorough
ly cleaned and then inverted, so as to
rest on the handle bar and saddle.
Time sooner or later deflates the tires,
and the weight of the machine causes
the tires to double up on the sides,
which is anything but beneficial to

gies, the vertical stylo of handwriting
is fast superseding the slanting system.
The new style was introduced as an ex
periment in the Philadelphia public
schools two years ago. Recently the
Board of Education, being convinced of
its success, voted to supply the schools
with a full course of text books in the
up-and down script.—Ex.
—The lx>ld innovation of the Besse
mer in ignoring the bill*, and hollows,
and building a straigW line directly
across the high flivides, has dissipated
all the schemes of the e: asting line 3 to
keep out competition. Every natural
channel providing an entrance to the
city may be monopolize -d, but the enor
mous freight traffic, originating here
will stimulate enterprig e to build lines
which in their geograpb ical and toyo
graphical features will "ne completely at
variance with time-honored ideas of
railroading. Tbe building of the Bes
semer was like the crossing of the Alps
by Napoleon's army, a stroke of enter
prise that b as upset all ancient opinions
and left the railroad managers all at
sea. —Pittsburg Post*
—A great many toys art? now made
in thin country, including many me
chanical devices. Many toys' are still
imported. Such things as wooly sheep
and dogs, now as highly prized by chil
dren as ever, come from Germany, as
do the skin-covered horse. They could
be made here, but they can be produ
ced cheaper abroad. As a rule, what
ever can bo made by machinery is made
here, while toys made by band are
mostly imported. The minute a thing
is brought within the reach of machin
ery American manufacturers can pay
their higher price for labor and still
beat the world. With the low price of
labor in foreign countries handmade
productions can be made cheaper in
them. As a result of this there are some
toys partly American and "partly for
eign. Among these are toy vehicles
with horses attached. The vehicles
and everything about them may be the
product cf American machinery, while
the hors*; standing between the shafts
may ba from Germany.

THE WORLD AGAINST HER—NOV. 23.
"Agnes Wallace Villa, the emotional
actress, began a week's engagement
last evening. She is perhaps as familar
with the publics of theatres as any ac
tress in America Throughout her
career she has appealed to the same
theatrical taste, and so satisfactory has
been her effort that the m"re niinnnnc*
meiit of her name is snlri' ieut to fill the
largest of theaters in the largest or
smallest of towns. This was certainly
the case last evening for the pretty
theater on Griswold St. was packed to
its limit by her admiring and enthusias
tic friends.
Agnes Wallace N'i'l;: has as ..ladjje
Call ton in 'The World Against Iler. " a
role that is exactly suited to her. She
has a fearful and agonizing time as the
misjudged a.id misused wife, but in the
end the sun breaks through the dark
clonds and life i: as bright as a June
day."—Detroit Journal.

Have you ever calculated how
much is saved in the long run by
having your clothing made by
tailors who know their business'
You get better goods, more care
ful workmanship and the fit and
style are worth a great deal.
It's a satisfaction to wear first
class, well made clothes, and then
it's economical as well. Clothes
that fit, wear longer, look better
and are more satisfactory to the
wearer. Those who wear our
garments appreciate this.
Stop and calculate. Do you
wear tailor-made clothes? In
that case you have garments that
last longer, wear better and suit
you more completely than any
other. Every garment is made in
the best style. No accidental
fits. No disgraceful effects. It
is cheaper to wear custom clothes
than any others. Fall styles 6n
