To Farmers-
A many farmers thr •ughout Hut

our Flour Mills at Butler. We call at
the freight depot for grain, take it to our
mill and return tUe flour and feed by

charge* for hauling from and to the
station. This is a great advantage to the
farmers as it practically locates a No. 1
flour mill at every stati.m. If anylsxly is

"Other Pkopj.ks money" Tiksua y
"Other People's Money" is not always
secured and held by banks or safe de
posit vaults. In the present instance
it will be found in a very bright snappy
and entertaining comedy play in which
that very excellent artist Hennessy
Leroyle will be seen at the Park Theatre,
Tuesday, May 2nd. The title of the
play does not conyey the idea of the
manner of dramatic work it is There
fore, to those who have failed to sec it
on its former visits to our city, it need
only be said that it is a comedy of the
farcial order In other words a pure
and simple farce comedy, not one of
that class relying upon the specialty
artist for success, but a play the story
of which is rich in opportunity for
amusing complications and absurdity
of scenes and situations in the working
out of a well developed and clever plot.

man, woman, and child in Western

the workman and the capitalist are
complex and many-sided It is set
forth in "The Lost Paradise" witli all
the skill that is required to make it
clear to the average mind, even if it
does not reach a permanent conclusion.

S
lEstract from Prof. Gibson's report to
the State Snp'd't.)
The year jnst closed has l>eei) one of
generally gratifying results. The en
rollment of pupils shows an increa.-e ot
aiioat ten (10) per cent, over that of
last year. We have experienced con
siderable difficulty in securing any ma
terial Iwnefit from the compulsory at
tendance law. The law does not go far
enough. Too high a percentage Of our
pupils belong less than the whole school
term. Investigation shows that a ridic
ulously small number of these papils do
any considerable amount of work. If it
be the object of our school system to
11•'it .*lll clmhb <»* society, it is cer~
tainly A mistake to rmil
and indifferent to waste a high percen
tage of the school year and negative the
good results of the remainder by irreg
ular attendance.
The year's work in the school room
has been fairly good. The percentage
of pnpils doing a year's work has been
high except in the lower grades. Here
we have been handicapped on account
of the crowded condition of the rooms
and an epidemic of tin asles which ron
dered the attendance much broken dur
ing the latter half of the year. Our
school population has been increasing
so rapidly that it is difficult to make
school accommodations keep pace <)nr
school board has endeavored to remedy
this congested condition in the primary
schools by a liberal increase in the
teaching force for the coming year.
We are much in need of a new school
buiding which will no doubt be secur
ed so soon as possible.
General teachers' meetings wen
maintained throughout the year and ii
is thought some benefit resulted from
them. Considering the small salaries
received, our teachers are showing a
commendable degree of zeal in fitting
themselves more thoroughly for their
duties and entering into their labors
with a truly profesional spirit. We are
confronted with that great difficulty of
having our trained teachers leave us: as
a result of which we are compelled to
be continually "breaking in" new ones.
This consumption of tiuu iu teaching
teachers how to teach instead of in
structing the pupils is a condition which
renders professional teaching visionary
indeed and the best results, an ever
elusive chimera. Unless there is a suf
ficent increase of salary to hold young
people in the work, or provision is made
for pensions in old age, the outlook
must continue to be discouraging.
During the second month of the term
our high school was moved into its new
quarters, where it ha* experienced a
most successful year under the I fficient
"management of " Principal Sernonk Ir
vine. The high school enrollment was
the largest in its history and will be
sfill larger next year. The graduating
class numbered ii -. and from the gram
mar school 111. The high school is still
wanting a full equipped science depart
ment. This we hope to secure in the
near future

• -'-ems to have shook th-> s.>ot of Pitts
bnrg from his feet, and the police ot
< iii igo and New York have lieni not
ified to arrest him on sight. Until a
few weeks ago Marsh was Clerk of the
Wifkinsbnrg Council, but his »nccessor
found a shortage in his accounts of j
■ which his father made good. ;
i but on Tuesday the startling infor
■nation was given out that his account
;at the Pittsburg Trust Company was •
b.-.sed on false pretense, tiiat in fact all
of the money he was alleged to have
there on deposit v.a- obtained by for
1 gerv and fraud and that as a matter of j
fact he ow- 1 the company over
the sum Vs-iag •biained from them by l
t j cashing of forged borough warrants. '
Th*-e allegations were made by Chas. I
11. llays, secretary and ticisnrer of the ;
' company, who ii: 1 court petition for ;
' an attachment, -t ited that Douthett
• was indebted to the company in the j
1 sum of *2.054.1(> He stated that
Douthett was a depositor iu the bank. 1
! and that on April he deposited and
j had credited to his account two war

• contractors, in payment for street
j paving work. Both of these warrants
| iwre the indorsement of the firm and of
Douthett. the warrants were credited
to the account of the young man and
lie was allowed to check against them
to the extent of over Tuesday
the warrants were presented for pay
-1 ment. and it was then discovered that
the name of the contracting firm had
bun forged to the paper and that they
were perfectly useless Whru this in
formation was made known, warrants
vvert issved for his arrest upon the
additional charges. The furniture
whi h V.m in his noise 011 South ave

taken no one knows
Yesterday more alleged iorgrd war

ISnsiix-ss of luteiTsf lo
liiitlcr I'roplc,
3i:ne the Water company has changed
ownership we have expended a large
amount of money in iuprovitig the plmt
and the water supply, as the present
patrons know,that there cannot be bet
ter water iu the state than the water fur
n'shed by the company now.
Now the Butler Water company have
decided to get more business if it is to be
had in the city, and in order to do that
have decided to meet the people who
wish to become patrons more than half
way. Heretofore it has been a serious
thought that the people couldn't afford
to put the water in (not the expense of
the water), but the cost of connecting,
laying pipes, etc. If wc can gel from
fifty (50) to one hundred (100} i.ew con
sumers we «il! make you this special
offer.
We will tap the main, insert the corp
oration cock, furnish and lay the pipe to
tli side alk, furnish the side walk cock
aiul shut off box. and in fact furnish all
labor and lutings to the curb line, where
a main passes the house, and sell the
same to you for the small sum of fifty
(50) cents.
It matters not whether you arc on n
paved street or otherwise the expense is
no more to you. Where the expense
would ordinarily be from $lO to #3O we
make it to you now for 50 cents, provid
ing you are willing to sign a contract for
two years.
Don't !>■_• afraid to ask questions, the
Water company's employees will answer
them all to tie- best of their ability.

First. It must l>t* d;\• r-itied. This
for several reasons which lan In-named;

iu its climate that a crop tk. .t is a suc
i •• ss one year may be a total failure the
next, and this may bt cause! Ir. frost.
; too much rainfall. drought or in fa t

farmer has very little control. And
again, onr large cities are -. i • : .vork of
railroads and other transp ;r;: 1 i_r fa»-ili
tt - which enables the -p- alistsof the
. aith and we-t to monopolize oi;r mar-
Kets with goods that ar 1 -<1 much
cheaper tliau we can raise them heie:
and the majority of farms are too srua i

v. aat shall we then prod i.-» that we

i.s es- I shoul 1 s.iv t:y 11 produce a

fruit, from the apple to the strawberry,
which should be on every farm, not
only for family u.-e but al-o as a source
of revenue to the farmer Ido not rec-
I amend the inferior kinds of fruit
which we mostly meet with in this part
of our country, but fruit that will rec
ommend itself to dealers oi fruit in our

ticulture. Yon must start with your
eyes wide open. We must learn the
nature and habit of the tree or shrub,
