Probably fifty citizens assembled in the conrt room, Friday evening, at the call for a public meeting to take the in itial steps preparatoiy to Bntler Coun ty's Centennial Celebration. On mo tion of R. C. McAboy John H. Negley acted as Chairman, and stated the pur pose of the meeting, viz:—deciding when we should celebrate and selecting a committee on preparations. Jas. M. Maxwell and C. M. Heineman were chosen secretaries. Lev McQuistion moved to celebrate in 1900 and John Mitchell seconded; J. D. McJunkin moved to amend in favor of 1903 and J. M. Greer second. Atter discussion by Walter Graham, Jos. Vanderlin. Wm. Findlev, Win. Forquer, W. B. Dodds and others, the amendment was withdrawn and it was unanimously decided to celebrate in 1900 W. A. Forquer then moved that a general executive committee of ten for organization be appointed, with Mr. * Negley as chairman. This committee to add to its itself two good men from each ward, borough and township in the county, to appoint sub-committees on finance, entertainment, music, pro gram, etc., and to select a date for the celebration. The committee is Andrew W. McCollougb, H. Boyd, W. A. Forquer. Joseph C. Vanderlin. Jas B. McJunkin, Wm. A Stein, J. M. Leigh ner, Will G. Donthett, J. Henry Trout man and Aaron E. Reiber. The executive committee is to meet at the call of the chairman and continue the work. What time they will select can only be guessed at. We suggest the long, balmy days of June as the most pleasant and convenient time for the county as a whole. THERE will probably be work for about a dozen minor committees in con nection with the coming Centennial of our county. Some of these sub-com mittees will be of more importance than even the general committee that has been appointed. So all will have work to do. Dewey's Weleonie. Last Friday and Saturday were the "greatest" days New York city has ev er seen, all in honor of Admiral Dewey, and his officers and men from Manila. On Friday there was a great Naval Parade, from the lower harbor up the Hudson to Grant's Tomb and back. The Olympia led the column of war ves sels, and they were surrounded and fol lowed by thousands of other vessels, while the wharves, and buildings over looking the river and Riverside Park were crowded with people. On Saturday morning the great land parade formed in Riverside Park, near Grant's Tomb, and marched down Broadway and Fifth Ave. to the lower part of the city. The police boat Patrol bearing the Admiral and a committee of reception, consisting of St. Clair McKelway, Wil liam McAdoo, Ex-Goyernor Levi P. Morton, Senator Chauncey M. Depew, Richard Croker and W r arren M. Foster, arrived at the pier a few minutes after the troops had come to a halt. No sooner bad the Patrol arrived than the cheer for Dewey was taken up. From mouth to mouth, from house to house, from street to street, from square to square, the cheer was carried. From the Battery to Harlem, from East river to the Hudson there was one cry— Dewey! Dewey' On landing Admiral Dewey was met by a second committee of reception. Admiral Dewey, pale, evidently einbar rased, modest and apparently overcome, walked with firm step from the boat and took his place in the carriage awaiting him. The bugle sounded again, the drums tapped, the people cheered and the line of march was started up Broad way towards the City Hall. Here May or Van Wyck awaited the official visit from Admiral Dewey. Behind the Ad miral's carriage pranced tne horses of troops. Each side of the street was lin ed with a shouting mass of humanity. From every window, from every house top, came deafening cheers and hand clapping. A reception and hundreds "of invited guests awaited the Admiral at the City Hall. After the presentation of the loving cop the Admiral was escorted to the foot of Warren street. Through a struggling mass of persons his carriage was driven. The greatest difficulty was experienced in getting to the river without driving down some of the thous ands who lined the streets cheering him and pressing forward to get closer to him. Reaching the foot of Warren street Admiral Dewey, Mayor Van Wyck and the reception committee boarded the steamboat Sandy Hook, which took them to the foot of West < >ne Hundred and Twenty-ninth street. On the way up the river luncheon was served. On this boat were, besides the reception committee, Rear Admirals Sampson, Howison and Philip. The steamboat anchored amidst a din of enthnsiasm. For over a mile around Grant's tomb there was one mass of moving, surging, cheering humanity. The arrival of the Sandy Hook was tin signal for everyone to press forward. As if with one impulse these hundreds of thousands of persons rushed towards the river. Police lines fell before the cheering, enthusiastic crowd like chaff before the wind. For a time it. was almost impossible for Admiral Dewey and his attendants to land. Once landed Dewey made his way to his carriage, with Mayor Vn.n Wyck, and the greatest parade in the history of America was began. The scene along the line of march was inspiring. It seems too big too won derful, for realization. Patiently with out a murmur, good-natured without a care, these millions of persons lined Riv erside Drive, upper Broadway and Fifth avenue. Their only fear seemed that they would not catch sight of the here of the dav. From the gray dawn thej had stood there npon the curbs and ter races, fighting with desperation to re tain a point of vantage. LIEUTENANT CULUNSL JAIES E BSRHSTT Of the Tenth Pennsylvania Volunteers, on I'is Lr.zm Pony, "Baby." And at last Dewey had come, Pre . ceeded by squads of police the parade, 35,000 strong, fell in line in the follow I ing order: Major General Roe and staff, sailors from the Olympia, Admiral Dewey, J other naval officers and their escorts. Governors of States and their escorts, members of the reception committee and the Municipal Assembly committee, all the naval officers. Governors and ; committeeman riding in carriages: then j came the naval brigade of the North I Atlantic fleet, a brigade of troops from the regular service. New York State troops and troops from other States and j the unarmed section of civil war and i other veterans and miscellaneous organi zations. - At 1130 o'clock the command "march was given, and the parade started. Down Riverside drive Dewey was driven. With hat in hand he was bow ing constantly to the great masses that thronged each side of the street. At Seventy-second street the parade turned into Central Park west, thence down to Fifty-ninth street, thence east to Fil th avenue to Washington square. When in front of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where the triumphal arch is built. Admiral Dewey left liis carriage to review the parade from the reyiewing stand. The Governors not commanding organizations in line also took seats in the reviewing stand. The ovation to Admiral Dewey reached its climax at this point. The : cheers drowned the sound of the music. The taps of the droms were lost Everything was turmoil. On Monday Dewey had a great re ception at the National Capital. There 1 was a great parade, and Dewey and Mc- Kinley stood together on the reviewing stand." Tuesday evening Dewey w;t- i banquetted at the White House. Harmony and Zelienople.

Why is it that the free books used in ! our public schools and which have been ! stored for months in musty cabinet | cases are not fumigated bef re the open- I ing of the schools?

The following statement and resolu ' tion were adopted at the last meeting of the ministerial association, and all the pastors of the county are respectfully urged to cooperate in the concerted movement protiosed. '"lt is admitted on all hands thai there is a rising tide of Sabbath desecration in this county. The relentless rush tor business and for pleasure does not make ■ due pause tipon the Lord's day for rest and worship according to God's appoint ment. The ministers of Butler and Entler county, along with others who want the Sabbath kept holy as God's own institution, view with concern this con dition of things, and stand ready to make their continuous and earnest protest against it. And in order that they may make their protest as strong and far-reaching as possible, they here by resolve to present the cause of Sab bath observance to their own congre gations on Sunday, Nov. 5, 1899, and ; urgently invite all ministers of our city and county to join with them in this movement.
