I hereby certify that the foregoing candidates have complied with the rules regnlating Republican primary elec tions. and are therefore eligible to nom ination and election. C. F. L. MCQCISTION, . Chairman County Committee. THE canvass for the Republican polit cal nominations will end with next week, and the vote will be polled on Saturday, June Ist. between the hours of 1 and 7 o'clock p. m, The new rules require the voters to elect two inspectors as well as a County Committeeman or Return Judge for each precinct; and also that the Return Judges at their first meeting shall fix the time for holding the primary elec tion of the following year. • The list ot candidates, this year, is a small one, and the remarkably unfavor * able weather has given the candidates bnt scant opportunity for canvassing the farmers, but yet at least half a vote may reasonably be expected. Setting the date for the primary a week or two later would perhaps be better—and fairer to the new candi dates. Last year the whole county took a day or two to attend the Centennial in the middle of June. HARRISBUKG. Three court bills of general interest were up for consideration last Thurs day, and the House passed finally the hills increasing the allowance of Su preme Court Judges for clerk hire, etc., from SI,OOO to |2,500, and changing the method of electing Superior Court Judges. The object of the latter bill is to make possible the re-election of Judges W W. Porter of Philadelphia, and W. D. Porter of Pittsburg, who were elected in 1899. The terms of four members of the Superior Court expire in 1905. The law of 1899 provides that, when two or more Judges of the Superi or Court are to be elected for the same term, each elector may vote for as many persons, less one, as there are Judges to be elected. This is being amended so that when four or more are to be elected, ajid after lftOO, when two or more are to be elect ed, each elector may vote for one less thin the number to be chosen. The change will let in both the Porters for another term. The third court bill was the one cre ating an additional law Judge in_North ~—"Tmiberland county. It passed the Sen ate, although Senator Hampton W. Rice, in discussing it, declared the new ' Judgship unnecessary and supported his statement by showing that Judge Sav age earned |2,000 in the last j ear by serving on the bench of- othor counties when he had nothing to do at home. Senator Rice concluded, however, that there was no use in protesting, as some body was to get another job. > A STREET-CAR strike in Albany, N. /> Y.; the bringing in by the company of non-union men to run the cars, violence on the part of the strikers towards those men who had taken their places and the destruction of Borne of the compa ny's property ; followed by the arrival of a regiment of the state guard or militia and violence towards them by the strik ers, caused the militia to fire a volley into the crowd last Tbursdav by which two spectators were killed and several wounded. There was rioting on the iu streets of that city for several days, last week, and then both sides to the coniro versy made some concessions and the strike was over. Opening of the Pan-American. Buffalo's Pan-American Exposition was dedicated under circumstances most auspiciosu, Monday. Not a thing occurred to mar the pleasure of the oc casion. The weather was all that could be desired,fair and cool; all the notables who were expected, and some who were . unexpected, were there ;the factories and the stores were closed almost without exception, the people of Bnffalo turned * out in great numbers, the Exposition grounds were in better shape than was anticipated on Satnrdav, and, alto gether, the affair was a success. The most notable features of the parade were the fine inarching of the members of the Sixty-fifth and Seventy fourth Regiments, and Vice President Roosevelt. After a long procession of carriages containing the prominent citizens of the town, came the Midway paiade. Such a gathering! First, the Indians in full war paint, followed by Mexicans, cowboys, Philip pines, Japanese, gipsies, dancers, bull fight ers, wild animals and a varied assort ment of other things. It all went to make up a parade as peculiar as could be imagined. Out at the Exposition grounds the crowd had begun to form. As the par ade entered the grounds several thou sand homing pigeons were released, bearing the announcement to many cities and towns,among them Pittsburg, that the Pan-American Exposition was being officially dedicated. Meantime, dozens of kites, spelling out the name and motto of the Exposition, were flying the skies, almost hid the sun. Round and round the pigeons circled and then started on their long journeys. Every oue of the 3,000 seats of the great music pavilion was occupied when the officials and speakers reached there On Saturday the nail looked as though it would not be ready for occupancy for a week, but it was in trim condition. A Serfect oration was given to President ohn C. Milbnrn, who acted as master of ceremonies. He read greetings from , President McKinley, the Premier of Canada and the Presidents of the fol- I lowing Southern Republics: Haiti, ! Columbia, Peru, Jamaica, Ecuador, i Nicaragua, Uruguay Martinique, Para-; guay, Argentine and Santo Domingo. AT San Francisco, last Saturday the weather was auspicious, Mrs. McKinley was in better health, and everything was in readiness at the Ship yard for the launching of the battle ship to be called the "Ohio." The President and his party were driven to the dock, where a great crowd had assembled, to whom he made a speech; and the launching was a successful one. COM M KNCKMKNT as*" The Baccalaureate. All Butler flocked to the Opera House. Sunday evening, and long before the curtain rose, every seat--excepting those reserved for the High School, and graduates of the Xinth Grade —was oc cupied, with hundreds of people stand ing in the lobbv and isles. Towards 8 o'clock the graduates ar rived in a long string of twos -the handsomest set of young ladies, and manliest set of young men you ever laid eyes on—and when order was re stored the curtain rose: Rev. Oiler led in prayer; a selected choir, led by Mrs. Colbert, sang a hymn. Itev T. B Roth of Thiel College read the 11th chapter of Matthew: Miss An derson gave a solo Then Rev. Roth delivered the bacca laureate sermon, taking for his text "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." It was a fine sermon and we hope the young folks will remember its lessons. High School. CLASS NIGHT—TUESDAY, 2^TH. Overture.

Mr. James Spence, formerly of Union ville, Centre twp., this county, and a citizen of Missouri for the past 35 years, is at present on a visit to his old friends of this county. Mr. Spence is very Cleasantly remembered by all who knew im and especially by the members of the "Blackstone Guards," a company of militia raised here and who went out in 1862 to the war. The late Ex Sheriff Gilmore Campbell was the Captain and our present Ex-Judge E. McJunkin and Mr. Charles Duffy were the Lieutenants, and Mr. Spence by a unanmious vote was chosen the butcher or meat provider of the company. While acting iu that capacity an incident occurred at Green castle, on the border of the State, while the company was camped there. Mr. Spence had procured from a neighbor ing fanner a fine sheep, in order to furnish the company with some good mutton. This he brought to camp and tied to a tree, preparatory to being slaughtered. By some accident the victim intended to appease the hunger of the soldiers liecauie loose from the tree. and escaped. The whole company, led by Mr. Spence, pursued the fugitive sheep, which was not captured until it bad reached its old hdine. The farmer by this time took sympathy on the former member of his flock, but the matter was amicably settled, the sheep delivered up. taken back to the camp in triumph, killed and dressed by Mr. Spence and afforded the Blackstone Guards a d'nner of excellent mutton, Mr. Siience has prospered in Missouri. He lost his wife lately, but he is looking well at the age of near 7:5. His home is Kingland, Gentry county, Mo. Visits Old Home. Mr. John P. Gilchrist of Wheeling, West Virginia, but who was born and raised in Butler, made a visit to his old friends here last week. Mr. Gilchrist is the surviving member of a once in fluential family of this place. His father, John Gilchist Esq. lived in and owned what is now the Arlington Hotel property. He built the greater portion of that present building and was a man of enterprise and usefulness. He and some of his family died and were buried here. Mrs. Gilchrist, his wife, was a daughter of John Parker, one of the first Associate Judges of this Connty, and a sister of the late George and Fullerton Parker of near Parkers Land ing. The family scattered and we learn from John P., our visitor, that ail are deceased except himself. He went to Wheeling iu IH">3 when a young man wai married there and has prospered in life. He was born here March 1 n:io and is therefore 71 years of age. He is a man of cnltnre and a gentleman in all his ways and all his old acquaintances yet living here were very much pleased to again see and greet him. He w;is accompanied here by one of his sons.

MO.Caztoo bldg., Chicago, CHILDISH COMFORT. "Never Mind, Mamma, Baby Loves You.'" But the childish voice is almost un heeded. The wife and mother has come to a place where love cannot comfort her, where even the voice and words of love are so blent with her own misery that they seem to increase it. Imagine a magnificent orchestra play ing in a factory amid the ring of ham mers and the rattle and groaning of ma chinery. The discords would dominate the harmony and the harmony itself merge into discords. That is ttrc way it is with all the music of love when a woman is wrenched and racked by pain. It seems to become part of the very dis cord of her life. When the cause of this suffering is •ought it will almost always be found to be womanly disease. The throbbing head, the aching back, and tliedragging down feeling are but symptoms of a disordered and diseased condition of the delicate womanly organism. When this fact is understood the one thing for the weak and sick woman to do is to look for a cure of the disease which causes her miserv-. WHERE SHALL SHE TURN for healing? If a woman were lost in a western prairie and found several paths which might lead to safety, she would take the well-trodden path in preference to the one which showed faint signs of travel. Why not the same in sickness? There is a road to womanly health which has been traveled by hundreds of thousands of women. Read what some of these women say. " I take great pleasure in recommend ing Dr. Pierce's medicines to other suf fering women," writes Mrs. Mary Adams, of Grassycreek, Ashe Co., N. C. " I had internal trouble very badly until it re sulted in ulcers of the uterus. I was troubled with it so that I never slept a night for seven weeks. The doctors said I could not be cured, but I com menced taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and ' Pleasant Pellets.' Af ter taking two bottles I could sleep all night, and after taking six bottles of ' Favorite Prescription' and two of 'Golden Medical Discovery' and three vfcJs of ' Pleasant Pellets,' my case was cured. I thank God and your medicine for saving my life." " Words cannot tell what I suffered for thirteen years with uterine trouble and dragging-down pains through my hips and back," writes Mrs. John Dickson, of Grenfell, Assiniboia Dist., N. W. Terr. I can't describe the misery it was to be on my feet long at a time. I could not eat nor sleep. Often I wished to die. Then I saw Dr. Pierce's medicines ad vertised and thought I would try them. Had not taken one bottle till I was feel ing well. After I had taken five bottles PROFESSIONAL CARDS. GEO. K. MCADOO, M. D., PRACTICE LIMITSD. EYE, EAR, NOSE AND THROAT.

I would entreat of any ladv suffering from female weak ness "to give I>r. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription .1 fair trial, for I know the ben efit she will receive." Mrs. Mattie Yenghaus, of Tioga, Han cock County, 111., writes: "I liad been sick for seven years, not in bed but just dragging myself around. At last I took three liottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and five of 1 Golden Med ical Discovery,' and was well. It is im possible to describe in words the good these medicines did me. Xo praise is too high for Dr. Pierce's medicines." WOMAN'S CONFIDENCE JUSTIFIED. The woman who begins the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is justified in feeling that she has taken the first step in the path to perfect womanly health. All womanly diseases medically curable yield to the healing power of this wonderful remedy. It establishes icguiuiiiy, unes uirvi greeable and weakening drains, licals inflamma tion and ulceration and cures female weakness. The periodic headache, the distressing backache, and exhausting bearing down pains are cured permanently with the cure of womanly dis eases by "Favorite Pre scription." Mothers find in this medicine the best preparative for mater nity. It gives abundant strength and makes the baby's advent practically painless. Women suffering from chronic forms of disease are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter, free. All letters are privately read and privately an swered and womanly confidences are guarded by the same strict pro fessional privacy which is observed by Dr. Pierce and his staff in personal consultation at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. Address all correspondence to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N, Y. In a little over thirty years, assisted by his staff of nearly a score of physi cians, Dr. Pierce, chief consulting physi cian to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., has treated and cured hundreds of thousands of sick and suffering women. There is no similar offer of free con sultation by letter or free medical advice, having behind it an institution such as the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti tute, Buffalo, N. Y., with its fine equip ment and skilled medical staff. The free consultation by letter, offered by Dr. Pierce, puts it into every sick woman's power to have the opinion of a specialist on her condition—a specialist whose great success in the treatment and cure of womanly diseases, is in itself an en couragement to every sick woman. Of the hundreds of thousands of women treated by Dr. Pierce, ninety-eight per cent, have been permanently cured. " Favorite Prescription " contains no alcohol and is entirely free from opium, cocaine and all other narcotics. If you are persuaded to try Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription becai's; it has cured other women, do not allow ttie dealer to foist on you a less meritorious medicine which he claims to be "just as good." There S 110 motive for such substitution except the little more profit made by the dealer on the sale of the less meritorious preparation. A VALUABLE GIFT for any young couple is Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser, con taining 100S large pages and over 700 illustrations. This book will be sent free to any address on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only.
