The greater part of Butler county
is underlaid with five veins of coal, the
deepest being from 300 to 350 feet be
low the surface and from five feet to 11
in thickness. During the past spring
and summer eastern capitalists have se
cured options on 12,000 acres of coal

an average of §2O per acre.
—The Jamisonville station has been

—This Speechlv sand craze will cause
the opening of old holes all over the
county, and their being drilled deeper,
The deepest hole in Butler cunnty is
•aid to be on the Robert Smith farm in
Winfield twp. It was drilled some
years ago to the depth of 4000 feet. The
Speechly sand there was al>ont 7 feet
thick, and about 2600 feet below the
surface, and there was some gas in it.
—A man may disguise his breath in
talking into a telephone, but no person
can disguise the voice. Every person
has some little peculiarity of speech
that, no matter how slight it may be, is
sure to be accentuated and made recog
nizable over the wire. The man who
has a sharp ring in his voice will seem
to speak more sharply; a gruff voice will
be made more gruff, and by the same
rnle an insincere voice is given a great
er tone of insincerity.—Ex.
—Pittsburg is the scene of some won
derful engineering operations at pres
ent. The new Frick building, across
the street from the Court House, is a
story and a half underground (looking
forward to the cutting down of the
streetsjand is some twenty stories above
ground, towering above the Court
House steeple—which makes it look like
a case of Contempt of Court. The new
Fort Wayne bridge is being built—un
der, over and Rround the old one—
while hundreds of trains are passing
daily over the old one. which now rests
on the new piers. The new bridge will
be nearly twenty feet higher than the
old; and the tracks from the new Union
station to the West Penn R. R. will be
nearly on the level, thus abolishing
grade crossings on both sides of the riv
er.
—On Monday a new electric cutter
was put in the shirt factory. Hereto
fore Manager Breckenridge has cut all
the garments by hand with a big knife,
resembling a Cuban machete, working
through a brass slot in the cutting table.
The new machine is a compact little af
fair that is pushed about on the catting
table like a toy. The catting is done
with a circular krife, about six inches
in diameter, which makes 2500 revolu
tions a minute. It is kept sharp by two
minature emery wheels attached above,
it With this machine a man can cut
nearly twice as many garments per day
as bv hand. The power is furnishfed by
a dynamo attached to the gas engine.
The cntter cost S4OO and the dynamo
SSOO. Sixty girls are working in the
factory and this number will be increas
ed by half.

Letter to C. T>. Greenlee.
Butler, Pa.
Dear Sir: The usual paint, lead and oil
is made more durable by the addition of
zinc; as the more intelligent painters
know.
Lead and oil," they say, lasts three
years. Add zinc, and it lasts three
years with a margin, they say; but
painters generally advise to paint once
in three years.
Devoe lead and zinc is nothing but
lead zinc color dryer and oil; but it lasts
aljont twice as long as painters reckon.
Mr. Knox, an undertaker for fifty
years at Brewster. N. Y., painted Devoe
nine years ago. The paint is said to be
in about as good condition as when it
was first put on.
Lead and oil don't last nine years.
Yours truly.

To Tin: VOTERS OF BUTLER CO.:
I am a candidate for CLERK OK
COURTS. My name is on theoflicai bal
lot of Butler county. It appears in the
UNION- PARTY column, ami also in tbe
DKMOCRATIC column.
1 frankly ask your influence and vote
at the POLLS on the sth day of Nov .
next. My course needs no explanation.
You are doubtless well aware of the
manner of my defeat at the Primaries.
Juue Ist. last, and the ignoring of my
petition for appointment, to said office,
after the death of the late \V. P Tur
ner. Esq . although I had the next high
est vote and was clearly entitled to the
appointment according to previous
usage.
The NEW BOSSES openly l>oast of the
unfair means employed to defeat me
They publicly proclaim that MY defeat
is only the beginning of a movement,
agreed upon by them, to dictate all
nominations hereaf'er, and to fill the
COURT HOUSE OFFICES, and all others
in the connty with men that they can
control absolutely, and for their person
al advantage.
The organization should be used only
in the interest of candidates AFTER the
Primaries, and not BEFORE nor AT the
Primaries.
The office of Clerk of Courts is an
important one. and if elected I will cou
duct the office to the very best of my
ability, and in the interest of the people
to whom alone I shall hold myself re
sponsible. Very truly yonrs,
