LOCAL AND GENERAL.
To wait, to watch, to weep.
To toil in tears whilst others sleep.
To see each cherished hope depart
To feel the pain of aching heart,
To know that life's best work is done,
To labor long and die alone.
To learn that Love is dead at last..
To feel that Friendship, too. is past
These are the signs of age.

of its extreme depth, it isjioseible to run
under buildings without endangering

All the buildings of the County Poor

completed, and will be ready for oc
cupation in a few days. The poor of
the county will be taken in gradually,
ami for this the County Commissioners
will probably announce a program.
The buildings present a good appear
ance, though, of course, it will be im
proved when the grading is completed,
property sodded and shade trees planted
Ample accommodations, with every
modern convenience, have been provid
ed for several hundred of people. The
parlors and bed rooms are large, light
and airy: the four large bath rooms are
complete; the dining rooms will seat
two or three hundred each, and the
kitchen is a model in every resepct.
The buildings are heated by steam,
and connected by frame passage-ways
and lighted by gas. and will make a
perfect Home.
The well, drilled jnst West of the
building, furnishes an abundant supply
of water, which is pumped up to a large
tank on an iron derrick high enough to
give ample pressure: and the sewer runs
southward from the buildings to the
run in woods at the south end of the
farm, while pipes and hose in the hall
ways guard against fire.
The Superintendent's (or Adminis
tration; building is a model, modern
house, with its own bath room, and
kitchen, etc., entirely separate and
apart from those to be used by the
patients. It has hard-wood floors, and
is well finished.
There isa nice view from the buildings,
in all directions, and our genial friend
and Snp'd't. Jos. Graham, seems to be
enjoying his exalted position.

to shoot Gloo. but the latter took it
from Marton, and beat him over the
head with it until he was bleeding
from many wounds. Gloo was arrested
at the Bntler House by Constable W. P.
Brown and committed to jail to await
the result of Marton's injuries. Marton
was taken to the Hospital where it was
feared at first he was fatally injured,
but he is now expected to recover.
Gloo refused t-> eat Sunday, telling
Sheriff Hoon he would wait until, re
leased and then "get more beer and
more fight. He is very stout and
strong and heretofore has been quiet
and peaceable. Marton was feeling so
much better Monday evening that oe
started for his home in Forestvillc, and
the case was settled.
Marton has a wife and family living
at Forestville. his wife being an Ameri
can girl of that neighborhood.
ACCIi'KNTS.
A team ran off on Main St., yesterdav
afternoon and ran into the Dennison
cart, upsetting it and throwing the two
girls and nurse girl to the sidewalk,
with the cart ou top of them, and
strange to say, nobody was hurt. The
pony was knocked down but not hurt.

place was burned about the face and
arms by the explosion of a gasoline
stove Saturday morning in the cleaning

bad fire resulted in which a shirt factory
on the floor above was burned out. live
other people injured, and a Mr. Green

William Hall of Saxonbnrg, a motor
tn;in on tbe new Mt. Troy and Reserve
twp. traction line in Allegheny, had his
jaw-bone broken and was injured in
ternally by an accident early Tuesday
morning. Three other persons were
also injured. The road began operations
Monday and the car that ran away was
on the first trip that morning. When it
struck the grade at Ravine street Motor
man Hall put on the brakes. The
wheels were locked, but they began to
slide on the rails and the car gained in
speed as it descended the hill. The
motonnan was unable to check it and it
was going at a good rate of speed
when it struck a curve at Wickline's
lane. It left the rails there and ran
down the lane. It traveled for some
distance until it was stopped by running
into the rear of the grocery of Charles
Yeckel. It went into the building with
considerable force and did much dam
age. Mr. Hall was taken to the Alle
gheny General Hospital.
Tlit- Salvation Army.
The Salvation Army has not, as the
ancient Hebrews, its three Festivals:
but has two special seasons throughout
the year, one known as the Week of
Prayer and Self-Denial, when the funds
are divided between the home work and
the needs of some foreign mission coun
try, India coming in for its share of the
proceeds in the last great effort. But
the Harvest Festival is purely for the
work at home, and is so successfully
planned and assisted by the friends of
the movement that thousands of dollars
were raised in 1899. The Army expects
to far surpass those figures this present
year. The dates of the Festival are
Sept. 29th t > Oct. 2d. and the offisers
and members of Butler corps will be
pleased to receive donations and will
have an exhibition and sale of articles
contributed on the last two days of the
festival, viz. Mon. and Tues. Oct. Ist.
and 2d.

Rube Waddell a big box and then ran
away. "Waddell gamely opened the
box. One glance was enough. The
strong man from Butler county, who
plays star roles at barn raisings, fell
back with a yowl, kicking over the in
nocent hat box as he fell. Out scrambl-
