LOCAL AND GENERAL,
Gh, every year hath it* winter.
And every year hath its rain—
But a day is always coming
When "the birds go North again.
When new leaves swell in the forest.
And grass springs green on the plain.
And the alder's veins turn crimson—
And the-birds go North again.
Gh. every heart hath its sorrow.
And every heart hath its pain-
But a day is always coming
When the birds go North again.
Tis the sweetest thing to remember
If courage be on the wane,
When the (.old, (lark days are over-
Why, the birds go North again.

Tlif; Butler Burial CJIMH Company
Butler's newest enterprise bears the
above name. It is a limited stork coin
pauy with a present capital of $200,000.
The stockholders art- Amos Steelsmith,
L. C. Wick, E. H. Anderson, W. D.
Brandon and G. A. Billingsly. It is
organized to make bnrial cases or cas
kets. It will be located with Mr. Wick's
planing mill at Centre Ave. and the
P. & W. railroad, but there will be
some great changes made abont the
place. Two stories will be added to the
present brick building and the Conno
qnessing creek will be arched and the ad
ditional stories extended across the creek
where a shipping door will be located
and a siding from the Bessemer railroad
put in. Mr. Wick owns the ground on
both sides of the creek and has a gas
well on the west side which is at pres
ent supplying the plaining mill and
which will furnish abundant fuel for
the new enterprise.
The IMrectors expect to start with a
force of thirtv to forty workmen and
hope to steadily increase this number.
They are not alone in this, but every
citizen of Butler wishes and hopes for
their success. Local undertakers and
thr«se throughout the county and in
nearby tows should place their orders
for caskets with the manufacturing
company nearest them, and that will be
the Butler Bnrial Case (Jo. It will be
the ambition of every true citizen of
Butler t;> be buried in a home-made cof
fin. fx>ng life to the Burial (:ase Co.

is in the highest state of cultivation,

of the reading of the petition M r

that a day be set for hearing evidence

considerable talk on the part of Mr.

proposed minority report.

The Allegheny County Har ussoci
ation took action last Saturday on three
measures now pending tiefore the
lature the two Magee bills, putting
prohibitory time limitations on damage
suil i against street railways, and the
McCnrrell Dili, abolishing the king's
jury system. The vote on the Magee
hills was unanimously adverse The
outrageous character of the attempt to
Kive the street railway corporation
something very nearly equivalent to a
license to k'.ll and maim ail libitum is
so clearly in evidence that not even
those legal pettifoggers who live upon
the bounty of the Pittsburg ring could
summon up nerve enough to defend
the measure in question
In liatHlliriK the Mc( 'arreil bill, how
ever, tin' association appear* to have l<-t
political sentiment overpower itn judg
ment. Although from the tenor of the
debate on this hill it wa« manifested
that the majority of the lawyers .ire
opposed to legalized jury fiacking, the
question of indorsing the Mct'arrH bill
WHO nettled in the negative by a close
I vote, the majority taking the ground
| that, although the king's jnry system is
' a noxious thing it would lie a mi stake

And she sang the song I loved long

Enraptured, I lifted my eyes to see
Her shining face smiling sweetly o:i

For n moment the spell was unbroken.
I was with her as iu days of yore
She ceased singing, and whispered so

"Yon are coming, I bave just gone

My heart had been closed with sorrow
for years,
Unburdened itself in scalding tears.
To the reality of life 1 awakened;
For she sleeps r.eath the cold drifting

That sang the song T loved long ago.

February SHOE SALE,
This is u case of force—
W*> must have room.
This will lie your month at our store.
If you need Shoes or Rubbers, you can
have things pretty much your own way.
We have too many goods in the house,
and just a short month to sell them—we
must reduce our stock; there is no other
way out of it. Our spring goods will be
here March ist, and this sale is to empty
our shelves of winter footwear AT ANY
PRICE to make room for new goods.
We Want to be Understood
We arc not in business for our health,
and it is not often we sejl shoes without
profit. This is one of the times we do,
and we consider it good policy to close
out all our winter goods even if we do so
at a loss. We then get the much-needed
room and can buy an entire new stock in
the fall.
Our Prices This /Month
Will be Record Isrecl<ers.
We cannot go into detail regarding
prices, but we promise you to meet and
oetter any prices you cin get in Butler.
