BUTLER, PA , May 12, 1902.
Owing to business matters, which
have taken more of my time than I an

thorough canvass of the connty, and
therefore have decided to withdraw
from the contest tor the nomination for.

friends for tha encouragement and
promises of suppport I have received. I
intend to be a candidate the next time,

More Promises.
$58,745.09 passed through County
Treasurer Rankin's hands, last year, as
treasurer of the Poor District of Butler
county, and the liabilities of the county
00 account of the Poor Farm, are (as
iy ttre county Auditors, *125,-
782.93; and yet listen to this gabble
from Greer's letter on the Poor House
question, published Feb. 10, 1898:
"The contract for the purchase of the
fano, the plans and specifications of the
bnildings and the contract for the erec
tion of the bnildings must all be approv
ed by the Court,and I would not recom
mend or favor an extravagant outlay of
money in either farm or buildings. A
large, massive house is expensive and
unnecessary, and is not conducive to
the comfort, contentment or happiness
of the poor inmates. The ordinary
poor person wonld be lost in a very
large building, and feel as if he were in
prison. I would recommend the cot
tage system," etc.
"There is no necessity for any great
outlay of money."
"I can assure the people that I will
do anything within my power to pre
vent extravagance or waste."
Pompeii and St. Peirre.
Pompeii and Herculaneum.two neigh
boring towns, on the seashore of Italy,
were buried under great masses of atbe*.
cinders, stones and lava thrown out by
the volcano Vesnvins in the year 79 A
D., or 1833 years ago; and so completely
was Pompeii buried that its location
was forgotten, until aeddently discov
ered in 1748-since which time part of
the town has been excavated, and is
now one of the sights of Europe.
Pompeii was buried in ashes, etc. 20
feet deep, while Herculaneum on lower
ground was overwhelmed by the mol
ten lava.
How many people perished in the two
towns is not recorded,but that the num
ber was large was shown by the finding
of seventeen skeletons in the basement
of one house, and those who escaped
probably did so by flight.
At St. Pierre, however, the area cov
ered by the falling masses, or "wall of
fire" as one account puts it, seems to
, have been so large as to have made es
cape by flight impossible. The large
town, and several small ones, were de
stroyed, and the entire number of peo
ple who perished is estimated at forty
thousand.
A sensation was created in the Senate
Chamber at Washington one day last
week by a Senator, who sent to the
Congressional Library for a copy of the
Bible—the first time the thing has
happened there for forty-two years.
Death 01 John W Gillespie.
Resolutions of respect on death of
John W. Gillespie, Company B, Sixth
Pennsylvania Heary Artillery, adopted
by James Harvey Post, No 514, G. A.
R. Department of Pennsylvania. Satur
day, May 10th. 1902:
WHEREAS, Since our last meeting an
other member of our Post, Comrade
John W. Gillespie, has answered the
last roll-call, It is but fitting that we
pay this tribute of respect to nis memory
which we can truthfully do, by saying
of him that by his death we. as a Post,
have suffered an inreuarable loss, every
comrade a friend and the cummunity a
faithfnl and upright citizen And
more than that, the connty of Butler
an official of sound judgment and of in
tegiity of purpose.
We, as a Post, felt pleased and honor
ed by his selection to the responsible
position of connty commissioner, which
office he was filling at the time of bis
death
We sympathize with the widow and
the children, and with other relatives of
deceased in their great affliction. May
they have the solace, the Christian's
comfort, that their dear friend lived and i
died a good man
A request of the Post was that the
county pa tiers be asked to publish this,
and that the adjutant send a copy to |
family of deceased.

That Agreement.
EDITOR CITIZEN:—My attention WAS
called to a letter written by Judge
Greer to Joe. C. Hepler, published bv
you in a late issue of your paper, and
which contains a statement on the part
of Judge Greer denying that any prom
ise was made by him to Mr. James M.
Galbreath. that he would not be a can
didate again at this time.
I happen to know about the promise
myself and think your readers are en
titled to know the circumstances under
which it was made and the entire truth
of the matter
Ten years ago Mr. James M. Gal
breath and Judge Greer were both can
didates for Judge Their many mutual
friends regretted that both should be
candidates for the same office at the
same time, and advised a conference
which should take the matter up and
decide which of the two should be the
candidate This was arranged at the
instanc« and request of both candidates,
and I was chosen by Mr. Galbreath as
his representative to meet the
representative of Judge Greer.
We met in the private office of Greer
& Ralston pursuant to an understand
ing of our principals, and here the
whole question was fully discussed and
the claims of each fully considered.
While negotiations were going on each
of us would from time to time consult
with his principal. In behalf of Mr.
Galbreath I argued that he was well
quallified, and had never held office.and
that he was really the logical candidate,
whereas Judge Greer had already held
the office of District Attorney , had two
terms, or eight years in the State Sen
ate: was Inspector of the Soldiers Or
phans Schools for some four years, and
now to insist upon having
ten years on the Bench
was. to say the least,asking a good deal
at the hands of the voters. Among the
reasons advanced by his representative
in behalf of the Judge's candidacy were
that Mr. Galbreath was the younger of
the two and could better afford to wait
ten years; that the Judge was advanc
ing in years and might be considered
too old ten years hence. Finally the rep
resentative of Greer made this propo
sition as the solution of the question:
That Mr. Galbreath withdraw from the
canvass as a candidate for Judge at that
time, and help Judge Greer, and Judge
Greer not to be a candidate again for
re-nomination at the end of his term
This proposal I submitted to Mr. Gal
breath, who assented thereto, and the
representative of Judge Greer stated
to me that he had submit
ted it to the Judge and that
he had assented and agreed thereto also,
and assured me that it would be carried
out. Shortly after this Judge Greer re
turned to his office and we fully appris
ed him of what had been concluded
and he understood it all, and assented
and agTeed thereto, and in order to
ratify same at once sought Mr. Gal
breath, who was at the Court House,
and where I had Informed him of what
we had finally concluded.
This closed the incident and from that
moment Mr. Galbreath, pursuant to the
above understanding, promise and
agreement, was no longer a candidate,
and the Judpe bad no opposition from
that tpae on as far as Mr. Galbreath
was concerned.

POLITICAL.
"The longer you let a calf suck the
harder it is to wean"—said Greer in ar
guing against the re-election of Judge
McJunkin eighteen years ago. And
how very true his words seem now.
Senator Quay has leased a large re»i
dence In Harrisburg for bis headqnar
teni during the State Convention. He
will occupy it about 12 davs, paying |SO
rent per day.
A dispatch from Philadelphia dated
last Friday, said, "State Senator
Spronl's retirement from the Gnberna
torial race In favor of Judge Penny
packer is expected to add (treat impetus
to the boom for the Philadelphia!}. This
is not merely because of the seven Dela
ware county delegates thus transferred
to the Judge, but rather as an indica
tion of the wish es of the machine lead
ers.
Following closely the action ot the
Montgomery county convention and the
public declaration of the uninstructed
Lawrence county delegates for Penny
packer, the Delaware incident is regard
ed as notice to the "workers" every
where that Quay expects them to line
np for his cousin.
Calculating on the undisputed conces
sion of the entire Philadelphia contin
gent to Pennypacker the contest to date
stands as follows: For Pennypacker.
105: for Elkin, 62: for Watres, 10; unin
structed, 3<5; total, 213.
AM the convention will consist of B!JH
delegates IHO will he required to nomi
nate. Penny packer, as will be seen, is
alrealy within 75 of the number. Elkin,
on the other hand, still require 11H del
egates, or only 27 less than the I 4"» dele
gates yet to be chosen."
At Doylestown, Monday, the Bucks
County Republican Convention refused
to endorse Pennypacker for Governor.
At Kittanning, Tuesday, the Repub
lican Co. Convention endorsed Elkin,
unanimously; as did also the Convention
of Forest Co. at Tlonesta
The Republican Co. Committee of
Mercer Co. has beet) called to meet to
morrow for the purpose of endorsing
Elkin.
Appeals for held have been sent out
Sr tne Quay crowd and they expect
on. Alexander McDowell, Clerk of the
House of Representatives, and Henry
Robinson. Journal Clerk of the House,
home to help defeat the endorsement.
State Senator J. D. Emery is leading
the Elkin forces. A. B. Thompson,
chairman of the county convention, is
also an Elkin msn. It is charged that
Emery and Thompson worked among
the county committeemen, lining them
np for Elkin. They made sure of their
men. It is claimed, and then Thompson
issued the call for a meeting.
The fight is warm enough in Mercer,
but at Wilkes Barre it is bitter, and
though Elkin carried the town by a vote
of 1345 to 1105 for Watres, the latter'*
friends bolted the convention, organ
ized, and elected two delegate* to the
State Convention.

The Destruction of St. Pierre.
The island of Martinique, the scene
of the late terrible disaster is one of the
chain of islands extending from Porto
Rico to the coast of S. America. It has
an area ot 380 square miles (,or about
half the size of Butler county) and has.
or had, a population of about 190.000
mostly negroes. It. and also the island
of Gnadaloupe, about the same size, are
owned by France. It produces coffee,
sugar and cocoa, and the town of St. j
Pierre, at" the north end was its chief !
commercial centre. Heretofore it has I
been noted as the birth place of Jose-j
phene, a daughter of the French consal
there, who afterwards became the wife j
•it Napoleon I.
The city of St. Pierre was located on
the north end of the island —partly on
the coast and partly on higher ground;
with what was supposed to be the ex
tinct or "dead'' volcano called Mt. Pelee i
in sight; but on Saturday the &1 inst 1
smoke was noticed coming from the
crater of the mountain, fire and lava
followed, and on Thursday, the Bth. the
whole top of the mountain seemed to
explode, raining ashes, hot stones and
cinders and lava over the whole end of
the island and sea for miles around, de~
Htroying the city and all its people, with
a few exceptions; and all the eighteen
ships in the harbor with one exception.
The day was turned into night by the
immense mass of stuff that came from
the volcano, and everybody and every
thing within a radius of several miles
was destroyed. The only light was
from the burning volcano and burniDg
bouses, and by this helpless people were
seen running along the beach. The
ships in the harbor were covered with
the burning stuff, and an unusual tidal
wave came in and upset most of them
Only one steamer, which had just came
to anchor, and which yet had steam up,
got away.
The citv of St. Pierre, and the vil
lages and sugar factories in the neigh
borhood were all destroyed, and alto
gether about forty-thousand people per
ished.
First Officer Scott of a steamer that
was destroyed, tells the following story:
It was about daylight on the mora
ing of May 8 when we sighted the
island. We bad run through H thun
derstorm, and we steamed ahead for
St. Pierre, and at six o'clock were at
our anchorage off the place Bertin
Landing.
When the agent, with lighters and
stevedores, came alongside they told
us that Pelee had been acting uglv ever
since Saturday and that there had been
quite a heavy fall of white sand or dust
over St. Pierre itself. However, the
valcano seems to have quieted down
and we got the stevedores to work
smartly.
There were 18 other steamers aad
coasting craft anchored in the open
harbor, one of them being the Tamaya,
a bark from the French Port Nantes,
her captain being called Moritz or
Maurice Then there were four other
large sailing vessels The British
steamer Roddam cut into berth next to
our and let drop her anchor. Then
something happened. There was a
shaking in the air, so that it felt as
though someone had jostled me. T hen
some man near me cried out;
"My God! look at that."
He was looking at Pelee, and every
sonl on board Rooked, too.
I can't describe what I saw, of course,
bnt my first thought was that the end
of the world would look just like that
It was as though the mouutam had
been blown up by all the dynamite in
the world. First of all a great pillar of
flame rushed straight up in the air. then
it opened out wider than the mountain
itself and came roaring down out of the
sky upon ns.
Some of ns, with Mor ley (second
officer) rushed to the forecastle head to
heave the anchor. I saw the Captain
shouting orders, and I saw McFear, the
engineer, drop below. As wo reached
the ship's head the fiery cloud was upon
ns. Red hot stones, scalding mud and
real splashes of (lame dropped and
clattered all over the ship.
There wss another roar, and with if
all the water in the harbor seemed to
gather up and rush upon the shipping
Every "craft heeled over to the great
tidal wave and seemed to careen and
sink.
When the wave struck us it fl<s>ded
ns fore and aft, sweeping away the
masts, funnel, all the boats save one and
all the raffle of the deck.
There was a ventilator at hand, and to
save myself I seized it snd was nearly
killed thereby, being driven into it bj
the force of the wave.
A couple of stevedores pulled me out
of the ventilator and dragged n;e into
steerage. There 1 remained half dea<l
for quite a tune, during which the ship
rolled and the fire and rocks battered
the decks.
Now and then a charred and shrieking
sailor rolled down the hatchway and
died as he came, so that quite a pile of
corpses lay over me. Someone pnlled
me from under these and I claml»ered
to the deck, and began turning a hand
toward saving the injured, whp were
lying ali abont,, though even then
small, red-hot stones and mud were
falling.
As 1 was about this work Captain
Mnggah carne along. I knew him by
his clothes, though these were smolder
ing, but his face was scorched beyond
recognition.
"Lower the boat," he said.
I could not obey his orders, however,
for the only boat left by the tidal wave
was burned full of holes by the flaming
rsin.
1 saw no more of the Captain after
that, but 1 was told by a stevedore ot
St. Kit's that he jumped overboard, got.
on a raft that had been hnrriedly put
together, and that he died there.
All this time the sea v/as rolling like
the heaviest kind of a ground swell,
Pelee was roaring, and the air full of
strange shocks.
When I looked at St. Pierre the sight
was terrifying. The town was gone and
in its place was a long stretch of gray,
smoking, flaming dust. AH alx>nt us
the ships were sunk or aflame, and l>e
tween ns and them and the shore dead
bodies floated singly and in groups.
Sonic hours after, I did riot know bow
lonic it was then, bnt I've since been told
it was at 8 o'clock iii the afternoon, the
French cruiser Hucbet steamed in and
rescued 17 of us more dead than alive
We were carried to Fort de France and
put in the hospital.
On Monday the city of St Pierra was
j'et smoldering: searching parties en
tend it tint could not find a living
creature; an immense number of corpses
lay around the Cathedral: every build
ing in the town had l>een destroyed; the
whole northern pait of the inland
seemed to 1»« in flames; Fort de France
WHS full of refugees, and provisions
were scarce.
Yesterday 's papers reported th« death
of on the British island of Ht VIII
cent, south of Martinique by the ex
plosion of a voice no there.
