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.

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.

Another "Old Bntler Boy."
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.

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

of ' Favorite Prescription' and one of
' Oo>len Medical Discovery' I was like
a new woman. Could eat and sleep and
do all my own work. 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. Send
•51 one-cent stamps for the'work bound
in durable cloth, or only 21 cents for the
book in paper - covers. Address Dr.
