The political campaign in Butler Co for this year started off in a storm, Monday, but it has been quite warm in the corridor of the Court House all week. "The delegates from Lancaster conn ty in the Republican State Convention will go uninstructed" said Representa tive Frank B. McClain of Lancaster, Monday. The situation ia up in the air. W. B. Meredith was in Washington, Monday, and said that the delegates from Armstrong county to the State Convention would be for Elkin.

H Wammock started on Monday morning for Colorado to drill. Edward Byers moved into town last week. Ladies' Missionary meeting will be held on next Saturday at 2 p. m., at the homo of Mrs. Wm. Gibson. Mrs. Thoa. Hays and her son, Fred, drove ont from Butler and spent a few days with their friend, Dr. V. F. Thom as. Mrs. S. M. McClure is in Butler'this week. A. A. Waterson's family, near here, are all stricken with the measles. There are three cases of pink eye in the family of Thos. Cruthers. They have struck a Speechly oil well in the rear of the old Presbyterian church at Bruin, good for 25 barrels. Presbyterian preaching service next Sabbath at 3 p. m. Great Floo<l in Ptttsburg. The lower portions of Pittsburg and Allegheny were a temporary Venice lest Saturday and transportation was by wagon and boat. At 6 p m. there was 35 ft. 8 in. of water in the Allegheny at Herr's Island; and 32ft. -tin. in the Monongahala river at Mtrlt.'C St. Early Satnrday morning all street car traffic was suspended between the two cities. Railroads were crippled and suburbanites had great difficulty reach ing town. Wagons took the place of trolly cars and hauled people across the waters that backed up Sixth street and other streets leading across the Alle gheny river. Residents of the West End were compelled early in the day to make a detour over Mt. Washington to reach the main city. Mills lining the river banks were compelled to close, throwing thousands of men out of em ployment. In the two cities fully 20,000 men were thrown idle The loss is incalculable. Furnaces are ruined in many mills and it will require many days to clean the machin ery Fine engines are coated with mud and rusted by the water. The loss that will be felt most will fall on the work men. who will be compelled to remain idle for several days. A safe estimate is that SIOO,OOO per day will not cover the loss from this cause alone. The mail service was crippled, every train arriving late on all the railroads. On the Pittsburg & L,ike Erie railroad trains did not leave the station at all Saturday. The water covered the tracks between the station and the Point bridge several feet deep. At Sawmill run it was also away over the tracks. The Baltimore & Ohio suffered greatly by loss of bridges, and was compelled to send passengers for the East through Wheeling and Grafron. The Pennsylvania railroad was in the best shape, and as soon as the street car service in Allegheny suspended trains were run from the Union depot every five or ten minutes Trains were also added on the Pan handle between the city and Carnegie. The city engineers made examina tions of all the bridges in the after noon. The Sixteenth street bridge over the Allegheny was ordered closed by Director Leslie of Pittsburg and Director McAfee of Allegheny. The bridges at Herr's Island and Forty-third street were also closed. The waters began falling about 9 | o'clock Saturday night and next day all i the cars were running. A Few Words from the County Superintendent. The schools of our county will soon be closing this present term's work. At this time of the year interest too often lags. Poor attendance and poor interest toward the end of the term often spoil what otherwise would have been a successful term's work. That tired feeling which sometimea gets into a school at this season of the year is fatal to progress and should be feared by all pupils and teachers. No other part of the term's work requires so much real perseverance as does the last month of the term. At that time pupils are doing more advanced work than usual and if they are to fully mas ter it they must put forth good effort. The reviews and examinations which should come in all schools will now Boon begin and will call up many things which need special care. More real lasting school work can lie done and should be done during the last month than was accomplished during any other like period of the year. > For this and other reasons children should remain in school to the end of the term. Dropping out of school be fore the term ends is a common, but very fatal habit in many schools, and is one which ought to be condemned by teachers and parents. This very habit spoils the reports, discourages the teach ers, ruins the schools and deprives the boys and girls of their education, and yet the whole habit is unnecessary and uncalled for in most of cases. Boys and girls let me here again re mind yon that school days are but few, and that you will soon need more real education than you will then have. If this is true can you afford to miss school now ? The advancing civilization in whicu we are now living is making it harder and still harder every year for men :tDd women to succeed in life unless they are educated If you want to enter life's work well prepared, if you want to be one of the thinkers and doers of your day and generation, if you want to pos stss the true key which will unlock for vou the doors of success in every honest work, you must take with you a good, intelligent, Christian education That is the foundation upon which life's work rests, and if yon have it your chances for winning will be tenfold bet ter than they will be if you have it not. Teachers, put fonrth your best tact and talent in these closing days of lliis term. Much remains yet to be done You may not accomplish it all, but you can do your best, and anything short of this is not enough. Your calling is a noble one and if yon do your work well future manhood and womanhood will be blessed thereby Your pay now is indeed small but re member that for every honest, faithful teacher there waits a reward more pre cious than silver or gold. In a few more days I will have been in each school of the county this term, and I feel safe in saying that as a whole onr schools wore never better taught Not one teacher was removed this year by the directors Fewer failures among the teachers, less from the parents and better attendance by the pupils than we mostly bave made the year's work a real success Local Institute work and educational meetings were also a success. Some of these were so largely attended that the buildings in which' they were held would not hold all who came. I attend ed twenty some of these meetings and am glad to say that I never have seen more, real interest shown in this work than what was done this year. Parents enconrage your children to use those school libraries —about two hundred of which have been put into onr schools in the past three years. Good boobs are good, safe com pan ions for children and it is well for the teach ers and parents to tell the boys and girls so. The visitors' daysc illed m»iny patrons into the schools and v. e think the last day of this term might be well spent in 1 that same way. March 29th will be examination day for diplomas. Yours truly, HOWARD I. PAINTER. Harmony and Zelienoplc. Alpheus Sitler, formerlv a member of the firm of G. D Swain & Co. of Har mony, is now exclusively iti the drag business at Zelienople. A joint high school for Zelienople, Harmony and several of the adjourning towushfps is talked about. This would pave a way for an academy or a college in this populous valley. Water works for Zelienop'eis a neces sity and likely will be a reality bjfore long Harmony needs the same as well, lltw would one pisnt do for both towns?

IICT'OIIII n Depth of Fifty Feet Tlify Must Be Got by Divers. The sponge is an animal and not a vegetable, as some state. It breathes, eats and, when In the water. Is filled with mucus. The sponge In its famil iar state is only a carcass. Sponges are known to grow at a depth of 200 feet and live even deeper, doubtless. At the depth of fifty feet they can be forked by an expert fisher, but at a greater depth they must be got by diving. » Sponge fishers use a glass by which sponges can be seen growing on the bottom. The instrument is in the na ture of a pail with a glass bottom, at tached to the bow of the boat. It is submerged, so as to steady the vision, which otherwise would be contorted by the waves. The water where sponges prow is very clear, and bottom 'can be seen at a great depth. The home oi' the sponge fishing indus try is in Greece and centuries old.
