H. CAMPBELL. • FOR COUNTY SURVEYOR, B. F. HILLIAKD. HAIUtISISI" Kt>. On luursday last Gov. Stone s lists of approval, vetoed and reduced appropri tiou- were made pnblic The Butler County General Hospital was in neither of the published lists, bat Senator Wil liams received word the next day that oar appropriation of $15,000, had been cut but one thousand, which makes it $14,000. A sum which will put the Hospital here on a very comfortable footing. Our members are to be con gratulated on their sucness in the mat ter. The appropriation of $260,000 to the State Normal Schools and $1,000,000 to cover the deficiency in the school appro priation caused by Gov. Stone's veto in 1809. are approved. Bills appropriating $04,000 for monument", of which $lO.- 000 is to erect a monument to Gov Cur tin and SB,OOO to Gov. Rituer, are also signed. The heavy cuts are made in the pri vate charities, which include hospitals not dependent upon the Sta tc. The State and semi-State institution* fared much better than the friend« of many of them expected. The total rednt tions in these appropriations is a little over $2:000.000. A cut of $-'5,000 is made in the $25,000 appropriation made to erect a monument to the Tenth regiment to commemorate it* ' n *ke Spanish- American war. "There is some talk at Hirrisburg of the probable composition of the new Capitol Commission and the names of several responsible men are mentioned as likely to be chosen by the Governor, who is himself Jto be the fifth member and head of the Commission. This will give him so direct a personal responsi bility that he must recognize the neces sity of associating with him men who will command general confidence both as regards not only personal integrity but also sound judgment and good taste If he shall do this, there is no reason why Pennsylvania may not at last have a State building in some degree worthy of its wealth and dignity.'' POLITICAL. Although it is somewhat early for a political round-up in Washington coun ty many prospective candidates are l»e --ing groomed to enter the fight next spring. It is being passed around that none of the present members of the leg islature from Washington county will seek another term. Dr. D. M. Ander son, J. H. McLarn and J. Clark are tho present members of the lower house, the latter two having served two terms. Congressman E. F. Acheson is, it is said by his friends, opposed to the re-election of Senator Boise Penrose, and it is given ont that he intends to put up a fight in his new congressional district. PAUL KRUOER is one of the most pathetic figures now in the pnblic view. The South African Republic was very largely his own creation, so far as one man's influence can go in framing the constitution and customs of an inde pendent community, and he has seen the whole structure crumble away in disaster. When the British succeeded he went to Europe in hope of securing aid, and now in his disappointed exile there comes to him the added sorrow of personal bereavement, in the death of bis helpful wife and also a daughter, in their far-away home at Pretoria. Fate is dealing grimly with poor old Kruger, and the moet ardent British imperialist will not withhold from him a word of pity and even of sympathy. The New School Law. The new compulsory educational act, passed by the late legislature, repealing the act of 18M5, and all oth<-r acts.mabef a number of important changes in th< law Every parent, guardian or othei person having control of a child between the ages of eight arid sixteen years is re quired to send such child to a day school in which the common English branches are taught: and attendance shall bo con tinuons during the entire time in which the public school of the district is in session. This is the general provision. Upon presentation to the board of the district showing that attendance is prevented !>y "mental, physical or other urgent rea sous" excuses may be granted, but the term "urgent reasons'' shall bo strictly construed and shall not permit of irreg nlar attendance. As a concession to parents who. like many farmers, require work from their children daring the early fall and spring months, it is provided that the school board of each district shall have power at its June meeting to reduce the Griod of compulsory attendance to not MI than 70 per centum of the school term in the district. But the l>oanl must fix the time for compulsory atten dance to begin. Children between 1H and 16 years wliu can read and write the F.nglish language intelligently, and who are regularly en gaged in any useful employment, are not required to attend school under compulsion. The act does not apply to children who must travel more than two miles by the nearest road to school nor to children instructed in the com mon English branches for a period equal to the pension of the common school in a private, parochial or similar school,or by any legally qualified governess or private teacher in family. Neglect of the duties imposed by this act is made a misdemeanor, and any teacher, principal, person in parental relation, or employer of children, upon conviction shall be fined not exceeding $2 on first conviction and not exceeding $5 for each subsequent conviction. In all cities the board of school direc tors shall employ one or more atten dance officers In other school districts such ofiiccrs may be employed, but it is not compnlsory. Attendance officers are given full police powers without warrant, with authority to place truants in the schools where they should be en rolled, at the expense of the parents or guardian, or in such private schools a* tho parents or guardian tniy designate. If no designation is made the board of school directors has power to dispose of the child. All truancy and fneorrigibil ity is "disorderly conduct." Petrol ia. J. S. Foster is spending a few da>> with Dr. Foster and son. Granville, in Pittsburg. Tlioa. Jamison an l daughter, Alice, had quite an accident last week coming from the church, bnt fortunately escnp ed without getting very seriously hurl If yon are in need of a hat come to Mrs. 8. E. Brown's. Von can buy one at any price from five (tents up Albert Jennings and a friend an spending a few days with A lbert's mother and sisters. The Strike. Wells ville O. was the storm centre of the strike la*t Thursday and Presi dent Shaffer of the Amalgamated was there and made a speech against the trusts and nrged the men to stay to gether. On Saturday great mass meetings of strikers were held at McKeesport and addresses made. The general i nblic was not admitted, but as one paper puts it, ' it is sate to say if the pnblie ac cepted at their face value the state men's put out last week by the L nited Sta-es Steel Corporation on the one hand and by the Amalgamated Assoeia tion on the other the prevailing feeling wo.ild l>e one of simple wonder why the parti* s should not immediately come together, compost.- their differences and start the works anew, not merely on terms of mutual agreement, but of the hearty friendship that should attend a I common purpose. For avowedly there is no difference over hours or wages or upon any but a single point. And most strangely it is for the same object in regard to that point that both sides openly profess themselves to be work ing. The United States Steel Corpora tion says it ia not fighting organized labor; but that it simply does not want its non-union men to be coerced into joining the Amalgamated Association. The Amalgamated Association says it is satisfied with the Lnif 1 states Steel Corporation's hours an 1 ...mes. but it does not want to have men who desire to join its union restrain- d therefrom by the United States Steel Corporation. Thus each of the combatant's organiza tions insists that it is fighting for the same identical purpose, viz., the indi vidual liberty of the wortongman. to do as best suits his pleasures and his inter ests about joining the nnion. Hough on Rowdies. A new law, defining the offense of disorderly conduct by persons on rail way cars, public or private parks or grounds, is now in force, although the public generally is not aware of it. The bill was signed by the governor on May 21st, and already several prosecu tions have been brought under it. As will be seen by the wording of the act it is no difficult matter to get into trouble over it. Section 1. Be it enacted etc , That if any person or persons shall willfully make or cause to be made any loud, boisterous or unseemly noise, or by using obscene or profane language, dis turb or annoy any one who shall be passengers upon any railroad or rail v.av car, or wh> may be visitors at anv public or private park, or picnic grounds kept for the amusement of the public in this commonwealth, whereby through such conduct the public peace is broken or disturbed, or the pnblic annoyed, he. she or they shall be guilty of the offense of disorderly conduct; and upon conviction thereof before any magistrate, justice of the peace, alder man, mayor or burgess, shall be sen tenced to pay the costs of prosecution, and to forfeit and pay a fine not ex ceeding ten dollars, and in default of payment thereof, shall be committed to and imprisoned in the county jail of the proper county lor a period not ex ceeding 30 days. Section '-J. It shall be the duty of all the magistrates, justices of the peace, alderman, mayors or burgesses to pay over to the treasurer of their respective counties, all fines, or forfeits collected by virtue of this act, quarterly, on oi before the first Monday of March, Jnne, September and December of each year and at the expiration of their terms of office. Snake Stories. Passengers on a train on the Dry Fork, near Horton, Md., the other day were startled by a monster rattle-snake dropping through a window into a crowded coach while the train wa* running at full speed. Women and children were terrified and pandemon ium reigned. The train was stopped and member.' of the crew and a few cool-headed pas sengers dispatched the hissing reptile, which showed fight. The snake, waf coiled against the mountain, the road at this j)oint running along a perpeudi cular precipice, and the reptile sprang at the train. It was 7 feet Jong and hai: 20 rattles. Fonr women were very ill from fright. Work on a branch railroad over th> Allegheny mountains was stopped lasl week by the presence of millions ol poisonous snakes which dispute posses sion of the right of way. Railroad con struction has been delayed in some pai i or other of the conntry by a variety ol causes, from Councilmanic obstins' > to freaks of the elements, but this is tli first instance on record where snake: have proved a serious ol>6tf»cle to cor|>o rate enterprise. It is H case when neither injunction nor mandamus will apply. lint it may be suggested to th* contractors that tho use of the ordinary amount of dynamite employed in rail road construction will prove more ef fective in ridding the route of rattle snakes and copperheads than an) amount of bushwhacking. A snak< will flee from concussion, even if it ha' to swim a river. Harmony ami Zelicnople. The Sunday schools of the Eighth and Ninth districts of the Butler County H S.

Mr. Minteer was a eonsin of Mrs Dan Yotinkins of Bntler. A terrific electrical storm passed over | Grove City and vicinity last Thursday evening, dnring which four men were killed and several injnred. A section crew on the Bessemer & Lake Erie railroad was returning home from work when the storm came up. The men left the railroad track and hastened to a deserted hou.- at the Pinchalong mine, where they sought shelter. The place is onlv a short distance from town, and some of the men argued that it would be better to come into town, but others did not want to risk the dangers of the storm. They hasten ed into the house and nought protection in one of the inner rooms. Hardly had the}' reached shelter when the house was struck by lightning. Luther Campbell, foreman of the crew, and Howard Cornelius, one of the section men. were struck by the same bolt and instantly killed. They were standing near a window at the time. Campbell did not even have a mark showing where the lightning struck him. but Cornelius was horribly burned Three other men, Lin Covert. Edward Hosack and Oscar Covert, were also shocked and rendered unconscious for several hours from the same flash, and were in a critical condition. Campbell was 42 years of age and leaves a wife and three children. Cor nelius was 18 years of age and un married. The men who were uninjured in the crowd ran for help and doctors and an undertaker were taken to the scene at once. The doctors worked with the unconscious men for hours, and said the men who were killed died instantly. The house which was struck by light ning was badly damaged. Dnring the storm a houseoccnpied by a gang of Italians working on the rail road a few miles south of that place was «trnck.

That saying seems to have been born of the superstition deep rooted in hu manity. It is akin to that other saying "He laughs best who laughs Per haps in these and similar sayings there is a survival of the old pagan belief that a display of happiness was likely to in cur the envy of the gods and to draw down the visitation of the malice which is twin to envy. It would be a ridiculous proposition to affirm that bad is the necessary- outcome of good. But just as many a day which begins with a cloudless sky ends in storm, so many an event in life which promises on'y happiness ends in disap pointment and misery. This is very true of marriage. The young wife goes heart and soul into home making and housekeeping. She loves to cook and prepare the dainties her husband enjoys. She is so robust and hearty that she can hardly find enough to do to exhaust her abundant energy. That's the way it begins. Af ter • while she finds that it takes all her strength to care for her homo. Then household cares ljegin to overtax her, and she drops down into a chair many a time and gives way to tears because of her weakness and misery. The sky so cloudless on the morning of mamag* has soon Income overcast. THE CRITICAL TIMB in many a woman's life comes just at this period of discouragement and de spair. She finds indications of disease of the delicate womanly organs. Her women friends perhaps tell her that the bearing down sensation, the pains in the back and loins indicate disease or dis placement. She consults phvsicians, takes prescribed treatments, all to no avail. And yet this woman's case is curable on the evidence of women who have been cured. " Four years ago my health liegan to fail," writes Mrs. Nellie M. Reycraft, of Glenwood, Washington Co., Oregon. " I had a heavy dragging and weight in the region of the uterus, pain in back and loins, could not lift anything heavy, rest at night very poor; stomach de ranged. One physician said I was over worked, another said I had conges tion and falling of uterus. He treated me nine months and said I would not be well until I had passed the change of life. I was only twenty-seven years old then. I became discouraged, and begsn using Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Took a teaspoonful three times a day; began feeling better right away. Am using my third bottle now, and feel I am in good health. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has restored me to health. If suffering women would give it a fair trial they would give it praise." It can truthfully be said that there is hardly a form of womanly disease med ically curable which will not yield to the faithful use of "Favorite Prescription." More than this, it is a matter of record that many forms of womanly disease pro nounced incurable by local physicians have been perfectly and permanently Pan-Aiiierimii Exposition liuf tiilo.

In a little more than thirty years Dr. Pierce, chief consulting pli v-'rum to t'.ie Invalids' Hotel and Suigicji 1: « -'-e, Buffalo, X. V., assisted by hi* «u.i of nearly a score of physicians, has treated and cured hundreds of thousands of sick and suffering women. If the dealer offers yon a as good" medicine in place of "Favorite Prescription " it is becajse less meritori ous medicines pay him a little more profit. His profit is your loss. Insist upon having " Favorite Prescription " the medicine which makes weak women strong and sick women welL TH* REASON WHY. Some medical works content them selves by classifying advice under the head of "Do" or "Don't." Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser gives the reason why, for all it enjoins. It is a plain guide to health written in plain English and dealing with the grcnt prob lems of physiology aud hygiene from the view point of common sense.
