Hereafter the Sheriffs of Butler conn ty will be provided with ample quarters • —parlor, dining room, kitchen, pantry, five l«ed rooms, large attic, etc. The kitchen aud pantry nre models aud are connected directly with the elevator of | the jail by an iron door, and the bath • room is a beauty. The main or principal story of the jail contains twenty cells; each com plete with bed. wash bowl and closet, and all hemmed in by an iron grating clear of the walls. The basement contains six cells or ! dungeons, and two bath rooms. The upper story is for women and : children, has four cells, two large sick : j rooms and two bath rooms. The whole building is heated by ' steam and well ventilated. • The Sheriff's office will remain in the j Court House, but hereafter the District j Attorney will occupy the corner room of the Sheriff s house, as an office. It's a singular fact that nobody has been committed to jail in this county since Sept. 17th—three weeks—some thing that has not occurred for many years. The portentous looking ring in the ceiling of the north side area is noted by everybody, bu ( there is no place in the building to hold prayer meeting. All the bolts ere working freely yes terday. and the building was accepted by the Commissioners and taken off the hands of the contractor. The whole building will be open to the inspection of the public next week, and after that everything will be closed and only those for whom the Sheriff holds commitments will get in. So go to jail at once if you want to see it. PARK THEATRE. THK STORY OF THK REFORMATION The above i- the name of an enter tainment to be given at the Park Thea tre 011 Friday and Saturday evenings, October 2* and 20. It depicts in music, tableau, dialogue, costume and lecture the life and times of Martin Luther. Mrs H. E Monroe, of Philadelphia, is the originator and lecturer The entertainment wil! be given under the auspices of Grace Lutheran Church. The young people of Grace Church will be assisted by 150 leading young people of the various churches of the city. The entertainment is the finest religi ons entertainment now before the public. It ha- been given five times in Phila delphia. The last time it was given two nights for a church and was wit nessed by about 8,000 people. It was given at the East End. Pittsburg, in January for the benefit of the Lincoln Ayenae Methodist Church. Several of the best known people in that part of the city took part in the entertainment In short, no one is too good to take part in the Luther entertainment. Mrs. Monroe is not an entire stranger to Butler county She is a niece of Mr Joseph Earhart, of Karris City, and she attended Passavant's school of Zelie nople and therefore is personally known to many of our jjeojile. She is well known as an author and institute in structor, having instructed in 40 coun ties of Pennsylvania and in every county iu New Jersey and Delaware. Mrs Monroe has lectured in 30 states of the Union and iri every city but five in this state where the population num bers 5.000 and over. Mrs Monroe is a staff writer on the Luthern'>bserverand as the days selected are HO near Refor mation Day, it is hoped that Lutherans of Butler and neighboring cities may make these great rallying days forget ting for once their synodical differences and remembering only their !#onds of union and common share in the great captain and kin" of Protestantism. NEXT WKKK IN PITTSBURG After a very successful week of Shakespeare at the Grand, the unequal led Stock Company at this Theatre will introduce itself to its thousands of friends in the farcical comedy of "The Poor Mr. Smart . There can be no question but that this Company has taken a strong hold on the affections of every element that goes to make up the great city and it- surronndings. It is by far the best organization this House has ever seen, arid much superior to any Stock Company that has taken up a perminent residence in the Smoky C'itv. "The Poor Mr. Smart" teems with fun to the final fall of the curtain. The Avenue Theatre of Pittsburg will open its season, Monday October 10th; having taken an auspicious occasion to inaugurate its career as a Vaudeville House, with the Conclave week. It will be open afternoon and evening during Conclave week, and after that evenings only.

Appeal of tlic YVoinauN Hospital Association. The usefulness of the Butler County ' General Hospital and the necessity for >uch an institution have been made manifest by its constant occupancy for the care of patients ever since its open ing for that purpose in June last. The cases treated have been chiefly those of persons severely injured, who have not been able to provide for their own care and treatment, and who in the absence of a local hospital would have been sub ject to great suffering from neglect or from the necessity of transportation to distant points. Owing to its failure to receive a State appropriation at the last session of the Legislature, the hospital has and still is entirely dependent for its mainten ance upon the generosity of private contributors At the time of its open ing. a considerable amount was receiv ed in money and useful commodities, the latter cjietiy for the equipment of the hospital and the furnishing of its rooms. On that occasion the people of Butler responded liberally to the appeal of the Hospital association, but by the constant occupation of the hospital in the care of patients the funds at the disposal of the management have lieen exhausted, and the need of replenish ment is urgently felt. A meeting of the Hospital Associa tion was held on Monday in Y. M. C. A hnll to devise ways and means of rais ing funds to defray the expenses of the hospital. For this purpose it was de cided to make an appeal to the people throughout the county for money, and especially tc farmers for contributions of farm products, which can be made available equally with cash. Contribu tions especially desirable are those of butter and eggs, potatoes, beets and turnips, apples, and other vegetables and fruits. Such contributions may l>e left either at the store of J. (> «& W. Campbell or th:it of A. Troutman's Sons, where an actual record will be kept of everything received, with the name of the donor, and the donations placed in the hands of the hospital management. It was further decided that an effort be made to sell membership certificates at a fee of three dollars each, for the supply of a fund of ready money to be used in the maintenance of the hospi tal These certificates will entitle the holders to a year's membership in the Association and to vote for directors at the annual election to be held in Febru ary. -No stronger appeal can be made to the generosity of the community, in town and country, than the mute call of the sick and injured for aid in their extremity. It is to this appeal that our people are asked to respond with such degree of liberality as their own abund ance of the good things of life and the philanthropy that dwells in their hearts may prompt.
