Thursday's vote was 90, 71. and .<1
the Independents voting for Charles
Tnbbs, of Tioga connty. who was in
dorsed for Senator over Quay last sum
mer, in that district. The general
appropriation bill passed second reading
in the House with the clause providing
"that no school district shall be en
titled to receive in any one year as its ,
proportion from the State a greater
amount of the appropriation than the
school district raises for the main
tenance of its schools by local taxation. ,
eliminated. :
Friday's vote was Quay 40, Jenks 3*,
and Irvin 34—the Independents voting
for Col. E. A. Irvin, of Clearfield Co. ,
Saturdays vote was 11, 8, and 4 —no
quorum. Rumors of important devel- ,
opment for this week were afloat, and (
it was reported that Quay would ask for ,
a continuance of his case, Monday.
Monday's vote was 11, lb and 7 —the (
Innependents again voting for Col. ,
Irvin.
At the session held that afternoon
ninety bills carrying appropriations for
for private charities were reported. ,
Tuesday's vote was 95, 76, 51 —the In
dependents voting for Irvin It looked (
like a deadlock to the end.
Yesterday's vote was Quay 90, Jenks
76, and Stone 52—the Independents vot
ing for Charles W. Stone. The House
Appropriation Committee gives the
Butler Hospital $2,500.
NEAR Apia, Samoa, on the Ist of
April, a landing party of Americans
and English were ambushed, and four
Americans and three Englishmen were
killed and beheaded. The affair occur
red on ?. German plantation, and may
lead to serious complications between
the nations.
IT looks odd to see the Quay papers
rejoicing over the exclusion of evidence
that would probably convict their polit
ical god of crimes against the state —
against themselves as citizens of the
Commonwealth.
WASHINGTON.
The opinion generally held among
army officers in Washington, last week,
was that Gen. Miles had made good all
his accusations regarding the canned
beef furnished the army during the
late war, and that Alger's retirement
from the Cabinet should follow
The President decided to name the
three new battleships Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, and Georgia.
New Pensions—John McNamara,
Baldwin, $8.00; Alex Hazlett, Petrolia,
SH.OO; S. S. Patterson, Butler. 820, and
H. Boggs, Evans City, $6 to
The peace treaties were signed by
President McKinley, Tuesday, and Bel
lamy Storer was appointed U. S. Min
ister at Madrid.
R. H. Fisher was appointed P. M. for
West Liberty.
DISPATCHES frour-Berlin state that it
is generally held in official circles there
"that Germany is entitled to demand
satisfaction for Admiral Kautz's action,
which must in any case be a matter of
international negotiation. Moreover.
Admiral Kautz's proclamation, as re
ported here, stated that the three Con
suls and the three naval commanders
had unanimously resolved to no longer
recognize Mataafa's provisional Govern
ment, and it is contended that Hen-
Rose, the German Consul, was compell
ed to deny this statement, which was
not true, whether Admiral Kautz made
it intentionally or inadvertently. The
public expects the United States and
Great Britain to disavow the conduct of
their officials, and interprets the Ger
man Government's declaration as an
intention to demand such a disavowal.
The chauvinist press go so far as to
prophesy that war is imminent as the
result of Admiral Kautz's direct insult
to the empire and the honor of the Ger
man flag."
AT a riot at Pana, Illinois, seven men
were killed and several wounded. The
coal miners there are on a strike, and
the riot was brought about by the
Sheriff attempting to make an arrest.
FIRE originated in the home of a New
York millionare, early last Friday
morning, and eleven persons sleeping in
the house, including the owner and his
family were burned to depth.
The Greece City School.
Thursday, April 6th witnessed the
closing of a very pleasant and profitable
term at Greece City.
The teacher desires to thank the
citizens of the district for their kind
and courteous treatment of him and
for their hearty co-operation in the
school work during the two terms he
was with them
If all schools had pupils as determined
to improve, and parents as willing to
do their part as they of the Greece City
district, we would have much better
schools.
Maud Zillafro and Nora Christie did
not miss a day during the seven months.
On Friday night the school gave a
pie social, and the way the people
came through the rain and mud is
sufficient evidence of their interest iu
their school. The social was successful
to a greater extent even than was de
sired. The proceeds were eleven dol
lars and five cents, and were given to
the teacher to purchase a clock for the
school room.
A. F. COCHRAN, Teacher.
IN the Quay trial the books of the
bank in which the State placed its
money show that Quay borrowed of the
same in two years, from April 80, lfWti,
to April 80, ls«8, 140.88 on which
he paid no interest. In about eleven
years, from May 6, 1886, to October 31,
1H97, he borrowed of that bank almost
two millions of dollars and that the
total interest paid on same was only
some two thousand dollars.

1 desire to thank the Republicans of
Butler County, for the handsome vote
they gave me, and 1 WISH you to know
that I will be in the field three years
hence.
JAMES R. KEARN&.
The Quay Trial.
Tile trial of ex-Senator Quay on the
>»ill char riita him with conspiracy to
us.- the pubft funds in a manner nn
autborized;by lfttc began in .Indue Bri
dle's Court In Philadelphia, Monday
morning. A jury was secured without
any great trouble. Receiver Barlow of
the defunct People's Bank was placrd
on the stand, ar.d the day ended in a
contention st&mrding the production of
the books, mi#»tfig liooks and doctored
books.
The seeoad of the trial of ex -
Senator Ql®rt was full of interest.
Thomas W. Barlow. ex-Assistant Dis
trict Attorney and Receiver of the Peo
ples Bank; ex-Judge James Gay Gordon
and A I>. TR}*T. former paving teller
of the bank, »« re the witnesses examin
ed. The testimony of Mr. Barlow and
Mr Gonlon wt»> highly interesting, end
at times s«isati< >nal.
The wholfc t®/*rt of the attorneys for
the defense dcring both Mr. Barlows
and Mr. Gordon's testimony was to
throw as uiuch doubt upon the Com
monwealth's contention that the papers
and book-* were in exactly the same state
as when fir*£. found in Cashier Hopkins
de and also sustain their allegation
that thev had been altered for political
purposes by the ex-senators political
enemies. worked toward this
end by drawiu# from the witnesses the
number and thr; names of those into
whose hands the letters and books had
come.
The afternt"m was taken up entirely
with legal «i«ttKions. bnt was far from
monotonous <lO account of the brilliant
argument of David T. Watson. The
argument was precipitated by an objec
tion by the defense to A. L. Taber iden
tifying the Qoay letters. Mr. Shapley
stated that tiioy objected to the offer of
a single letter. There was blood in the
air and both sides scented a long battle,
so a recess* vfais taken at 12:30, '25 min
utes earlier than the day before.
There was*lively legal tilt upon re
convening as to whether the defense
should first be heard in their objections
to the offer of a single letter or whether
the District Attorney should IK* aliowed
to add to his offer of the latter what he
expected to follow it up.
The court decided that the latter
course was best proceedure, and Mr.
Rothermel introduced a mass of testi
mony gained from the bank s books,
which, takem with the letters, he said,
would show ttoe ex senator guilty of con
spiracy.
Mr. Watsba's answer was a magnifi
cent effort. Even Colonel Quay, who
has been most of the time apparently
the least iafa-reated person in the court
room, followed every motion of the Pitts
burg lawyer.
The District Attorney did not have
time before 3 o'clock to answer Mr.
Watson, bnt the argument may be the
turning point of the case. If the offer
of the letters Mid "red book"is rejected,
the main prop of the Commonwealth s
case will fall.
The District Attorney opened the pro
ceedings in this phase of the case by
offering in evidence the books of the
bank, extendsiig oves a number of years
and along them ti.e account books,
letter press bank and letters from Sena
tor Quay and State Treasurer Haywood
found in th« desk of Cashier Hopkins
after that official had committed suicide.
He read a long summary of what the
books and papers showed, and stated
what he expected to prove by them, to
wit, that tbtbagh a conspiracy with
Cashier Hopkins State Treasurer Hay
wood and other State Treasurers, and
possibly with c*her •fficials of the bank.
Senator Qfcay used a certain fixed
amount of state money deposited iu the
institution, aftd deceived interest on an
other fixed of the State dej>osit.
Much of evidence offered by the
District Attorney was brought out at
the preliminary hearing, on October 5.
There was some liew matter, however,
dealing principally with the amount of
money loaned by the bank to Mr. Qnav,
and daring tiie past 12 or 14 ytjfirs the
amount paid to him and other State
Treasurers as interest on State deposits.
Mr. Watson contended that the mere
fact that bank clerks, with 110 personal
knowledge of the truth of what they
were writing, entered certain figures in
a book, which figtares purported to rep
resent interest paid to the ex-senator
was no proof tuat the money had been
received by hlni or that there had been
anv intention to pay it to him. This
argument is In line with the defense's
contention thgf Mr. Quay was the vie
tim of Hopkte*. who used the ex Sena
tors name tn> ajrer up his own illegal
transactions. Mr. Watson also attacks
the indictOfcP&t. declaring it to be fatal
ly defective.
" Previous to tll'» presentation of the
bank books b» #lr. Rothermal, the ex
animation af Receiver Barlow was
concluded ex-Judge Gay Gordon,
who, the :ullievents of ex-Senator Quay
declare, is responsible for what they
term the conspiracy against their fav
orite. gave testimony in corroboration
and explanation of Mr. Barlow's
statement.
Mr. Barlow created a sensation by
the statement that he had broken open
the dead cswlitjr's de*k and taken
therefrom the books ami letters apper
taining to the Quay trial at the behest
of a mysteriou# informant, who spoke
to him over the telephone from Har
risburg and stated that there was a
plot on foot %o steal the compromising
documents that night. He was, he
said, never able to learn who his mys
terious friend was. The fact was
gleaned from Mr. Barlow that the bank
books and letters were practically in
the control »f Judge Gordon from April
until September of last year. He con
sidered this proper. as Judge Gordon
was the confidential advisor of Pres
ident McManue, of the bank.
Judge Giipdon gave his testimony in
a quiet convincing manner. He de
precated the stories of conspiracy
against Senator Quay that have been
persistently put, in circulation and
frankly answered < very question asked
regarding the use he made of the papers
while he had #ll m. He admitted that
they had baen photographed at his
suggestion, but merely for purposes of
safety iu the event of the originals
being destroyed, ile also admitted
showing theui to David Martin, the
leader of the anti-Quay faction, to John
Wanamaker, a bitter opponent of Quay,
and to others, a partial exhi
bition of letters to James M. Gnffey,
the Democratic leader of this State,
but not iu manner hinted at by the
defense.
Judge (tordon asked permission <>f
the Judge to a statement of his
connection with the case, but the
entire array «rt Quay connsel objected
instantly, and what would have un
doubtedly prrwt* interesting reading
was thus shjit off.
The court prapeedings grew liveliest
on account Qf some sharp tilts
between Mr. Sfaapley and the District
Attorney. ,\lr. Rothermel was fret*
with his objections to <iuestioiis. and
several briskly worded engagements
followed.
At the reconvening ot the Court at
10 A M. yesterday Dist. Att'y Rother
mal answered Watson's argument of
the previous dav; Shapley followed, and
then Judge Biddle decided to receive
the letter in question. This decision
was said to include all of the dead cash
iers papers, lint not the "red-book.
Judge Biddle decided to receive the
Regular books of the bank, but reserved
his decision in the "red-book." a book
found in Cashier Hopkins' desk, after
he had committed suicide, and in which
he kept a record of his transactions
with i^uay.
Mrs. George's Trial.
At Canton, Ohio, Thursday, the jury
in the case vs Mrs. George for killing
.Sax ton was completed.
On Monday eleven witnesses were
heard for the prosecution but none of
their evidence was of a "convicting
nature."
At Tuesday's session of her trial .1 udge
Taylor ruled that Mrs, George's silence
when questioned by the arresting
officers could uot In* taken as an invol
untary admission of guilt.
Over this issue the attorneys fought
bitterly for two hours. The qnesti 11
asked Mrs. George, '"Why did yon go
west on the car that night?" which
caused the dissension when repeated to
a witness in conrt. was ordered stricken
from the record. But despite this
point, the chain of circumstantial evi
dence against Mrs. <4eorge was
strengthened very materially that day.
Testimony of an unexpected nature
proved clearly for the first time that
she endeavored to meet George Sax ton
within an hour before his murder; that
she referred bitterly to his broken
promises, and that she made a futile
attempt to see her lawyer, James
Sterling, at his office in the Danne
miller building, within an hour after
the shooting, and shortly before hr
arrest. Moreover, expert witnesses
swore that when arrested the thumb
and index finger of her right hand were
stained black, and that the substance
when scraped oft proved to be gun
powder.
Yesterday it was shown that Mrs.
George watched Saxton with Mrs. Alt
house, and one witness saw a revolver
in her hand.

March sth. closed the winter term of
school. This term has been taught by
Miss Nellie MeCandless, the past
winter, and she has proved herself to be
an efficient and earnest teacher. We
were favored as being guests at their
picnic, which was a very i>le.isant affair.
The programme consisted of declama
tions by the little folks, the principal
feature of the entertainment being a
play representing a menagerie, which
caused considerable excitement, each
acting their part well. At the close of
the programme the teacher rose to
dismiss the audience for noon, when
Mr John Brandon announced another
performance. Our teacher told him
that we had no more prepared, when
he requested her to be seated. Then
came the surprise, when the pupils
placed a beautiful parlor lamp and
water set on tin desk. Mr. Brandon
presented these in a very appropriate
manner, in behalf of the school, as a
tokea of esteem for their teacher. Miss
McCandless assured them that it was a
surprise that she would never forget.
Mr. Benj. Douthett, in his able man
ner. made remarks assuring the teacher
that she would always i>e remembered
in the neighborhood, and that she had
the love and respect of ail.
After a sumptuous dinner we spent
till three o'cl(#k in play.

(Read by Miss Mary McKee. at the Re
union of the L P. Congregation
March 24.)
In a distant country, was a temple,
primeval fair to see.
Of living green the arches, the aisles of
matchless symmetry.
Here, 'mid the fragrance of the heather
God was worshipped day by day:
Bv a people, peculiar people, taaght
to labor and to pray
Listen to the veins ringing, high and
clear, o'er field and fell:
Hunted now. like driven < attle, far
from homes in which they dwell.
Fire and sword in the name of the cross,
spared not age. nor youth nor
creeds;
Mid storm and tempest, the ground
cried out. at scenes of horror and
bloody deeds.
'Mid the caves and mountain fastness',
hides by day this chosen band;
Far down the glen, a shining cohort
moves here and there across the
land.
The prayer ascends: "Be not far off;
for trouble nears: none to help
appears."
God's curtain falls, a silken sheen, oer
the landscape, bringing smiles
from tears.
In the glory of the morning, liberty was
born, far across the sea.
Did yon hear itV Can you believe it':
Free to worship God, you and
me?
Out upon the trackless ocean, with
hearts uplifted, sailed away these
Scotchmen brave:
To the realm of promise given, in the
distant golden setting, just be
yond the wave.
In the chill and gloom of winter, they
built a new kirk, on a hill-top
bare and brown;
In the yalley laid ont a city, fair and
quaint, and they called it Bntler
town.
How the welkin rang with music. Scot
land's friends, the auld Psalms of
David.
No greater power to convert. No
greater claim, in lives of Plutarch
or tales of Ovid.
In their veins the blood of martyrs ran.
No sterner stuff than this, to
make men brave;
Facing for conscience sake, perils of
sea and land, even the grave.
Of precepts and doctrines of bygone
days, the truth was set forth
in lives of God-fearing men;
From fashion and pride turned their
faces away, which the ruin of
nations poetend.
Summer's sun and winter's snow swift
ly come and go, in Butler town;
In the valley lies the city, close to
water's edge, the same as years
agone.
On the hill-top, in the sunlight, the
kirk still stands: not the kirk of
other times;
But a lofty, noble building, granite
hewn, like a poem vast and
rich sublime.
'Mong the arches high are ringing.
Psalms of David—not the old but
ever new,
The session looks cross, for they're ai a
loss. to know what next they will
do.
In yonder corner by a pillar, an organ
stands, another innovation.
From out the shadow of the pulpit,
the organ swells, its the de'il's
own invention.
Surely the ministers will see, the thin
• t-dge entering of the wedge;
That we are departing, nay far away
be. from the faith of Scotland's
pledge.
But Scotland's gwan in concert—a
woman preacher comes to town;
And strange to say, as though bewitch
ed, the ministers do not even
frown.
Men are prone to 'ere, and seek for
giveness: now they call it "ex
perience. "
Tiuly the word from which onr fathers
taught, seems to be at variance.
In meeting, women will not silence
keep, in spite of Paul's injunction;
In the reading of the Scriptures, things
are rendered strange, by a new
revised translation.
The long grass waves, in the geutle
breeze, o'er Scotland's heroes, in
the city of the dead.
In the joy aud peace of living, no need
to fear the perils from which they
fled.
More costly far. than hidden gems in
mines of ophir, or jewels rare and
old.
Comes to us, this Godly heritage, more
precious than fine gold.
The stately kirk of granite hewn, will
crumble into dust; forgotten the
singer and the song;
But down th< ages a message rings to
sons and daughters yet unborn.
Our sons and daughters! Like prince's
palaces, more fair than Sheba's
glory.
Monuments more lasting, none than
these, to proclaim the grand old
From Cuba's fair and palm browned
isle, in ocean's coral strand,
A wail came from bleeding hearts,
which thrilled men's sonls
throughout the land.
Men say the heroes all are dead. Gone
forever deeds of glory.
A thousand thousand stripped for
action, "Aye! Aye! Sir," tells the
story.
In the distant East, is an "open door,
the Pilippines and old Kartoum;
Out of Pharaoh's land, the cry is com
ing from the darkness of the
tomb.
As our father's died to make men hap
py, so we'll live, nay die, to make
men free;
And herald the good news of Christ the
Saviour, afar across the sea.
