Senator Grady of Philadelphia say: that Batler and Westmoreland countiei do not touch each other, and therefori cannot be a Congressional district. HI thinks the matter will be taken to thi Supreme Conrt. A dispatch from Philadelphia sayi that "Despite bis desire to stay on th< bench until he shall have been elected governor, Judge Samuel W. Penny packer is to resign his seat within the present month. This has been settled on by Quay, Penrose and Durham, whe met here this week, and Judge Penny picker has consented. The reason is that it is desired to elect Pennypacker's successor at the November election. Under the constitution, "any vacancy happening by death, resignation 01 otherwise in any conrt of record shall be filled by appointment of thegovernei to continue until the first Monday of January next succeeding the first gen eral election, which shall occur three 01 more months after the happening of such vacancy." As the election occurs November 4, it will be necessary foi Pemiypacker to resign before August 4 if his successor is V be elected before 1903. Quay and Durham are unwilling to give Stone the appointment of a man to serve until Januarv, 1904, and there fore they have decided that Penny packer's $7,000 successor shall be elect ed this fall. Senator Quay, now Chairman of the State Committee, was in Pittsbnrg, Tuesday and had a long talk with MR Bigelow, one of the leaders of the fusion movement there; and H;J an 1 Penrose are booked for a visit to Gov. Stone this week. Jos. Sibley received a unanimoui nomination for Congress at Warren last week. A Great Work. The Pennsylvania R. R.

They re*t on con crete foundatie-ns ten feet deep, and will be; surmounted by a handsome stone coping, making them from top to bot tom about thirty five feet high. On the outside they are smooth, but on the in side look like a pair of steps, and the space between the two walls will be filled in with earth. These walls are expected to stand for the human "forever. " Federal street and the other streets will lie crossed by iron bridges. The new "Union" station will BE on the sites of the present West Penn station, and the freight depot will be located upon the ground now occupied by the Bauer's hotel. Max Klein and other*. Whole blocks of buildings are being torn down on the west side of Feeleral. and the walls em that bide will extend to the PaTk.

In the states that have adopted it the percentage e»f petitioners, ranges from 5 to 30 of whole number of voters in f he state or community affected by the law in question. The Continuity Question. EDITOR CITIZEN -Senator Grady, of Philadelphia, and other politicians are raising the "question that Butler and Westniorela nd counties are not contign" ons: that a strip of Armstrong county separates them, and therefore that the ja-st Congressional apportionment is illegal. The matter is easily solved by refer ence to the act of Assembly of March l-_\ ISOO, creating the countiesof Butler, Armstrong and others. This act or law takes them from Allegheny county. Allegheny was taken from old West morland. Both Butler and Armstrong l»egin at "the mouth of Buffalo creek. As to Butler connty, it reads thus: "Beginning at the mouth of Buffalo creek on the Allegheny river.'' And as to Armstrong county it says: - Begin ning at the Allegheny river at the month of Buffalo creek. the corner of Butler county." So it will be seen both Butler and Armstrong were created and begin their boundaries at that point on the Alle gheny river at ' the mouth of Buffalo creek.' Now add to this fact that "the mouth of Buffalo creek'' is across the river from Westmoreland county and opposite said county, and no other coun tv. and we have the fact that both ire connected with old mother Westmore land by the Allegheny river. No ques tori is raised as to the river preventing a "contiguous" district. That question is long since settled. And as Allegbenv countv had at that point—"the mouth of Buffalo creek —no territory across the river, and Westmoreland had all. then it follows that there is a "conti guity " between Butler and Westmore land. and the district is lawfnlly made, and Armstrong county has no "strip or "point" of land there to the preju dice of Butler connty. Senator Grady was chairman of the Apportionment Committee, and if any thing is wrong he is to blame. J. H. N. Fair view. Fire was discovered in A. L.

That is how a number of our customers fxpresftl it in of our Saturday's tr:ule It was the first day of onr Great Clearance Sale and a great day it was It kept our entire force of clerks busy wrapping up the goods as fast as the crowd picked them off the counters Many of the great heaps of footwear which had been piled ou our immense counters dwindled away like snow beneath a hot sun, but we arc not going to stop at this. We will keep the good work going on: we will keep these counters filled up. if we have to lose a good deal of money. We want every family in Br.tler county to get a share of these great bargains, but don't "wait too long. There is an end to all things and at the mte they came ou Saturday it will be impossible to keep all sizes very long. Stop in and site the busiest store in Butler county, whether yon want to buy or not. The goods are displayed so you can look thein over at vonr leisure. We are sorry our customers could not all get waited on Saturday night, but we will have larger force of clerks hereafter, so come again. Large Bargain Counter Running Full Length of Store All goods separated in different lots, each lot marked in plain figures, so you can look over the whole lot and pick out what you want. This lot of goods includes Men's, Women's. Boys', Girls' and Infants' Footwear, all marked at slaughter prices. We have had an immense trade this season on Spring and Summer footwear, by far the largest he have ever had. Duplicate after duplicate was placed on goods, but onr immense trade just before the glorious Fourth left us with many lines brokrn in sizes. We did not have all sizes of any one line, but all sizes :n all the different lines. We felt after the great amount of goods we had sold we could afford to almost nive balance away, so concluded to wind forepart of season up with one of the greatest clearance sales ever held m Butler. No After Fourth Dull Season Here Trade is usually quiet every place just after Fourth; not so here. Our patrons have got to know that when we advertise a marked down or bargain sale that it is genuine and no f.ike to fool or try and fool people into coming this way. We always have the goods to back up what we advertise We did not have time to put ad in paper for Saturday, so just penciled announcement ou window that wfrhad >; CWrauce Sale and the way tho crowd came flocking in made us feel as though onr greatest an ticipations had more than been reached. Space will not permit its to give in detail the greatest amount of bargains to be had at this busy stv.re. Will jnst say. Follow the crowd and come in and look them all oyer We have a birge electric fan going and a big tank cf ice water on tap for con venience of our visitors. Come in and enjoy them both, whether y« u want, to buy or not. Largest force of clerks of any shoe store in Butler county. Pay us a visit. C. E. MILLER, What She Hay Expect. The Goal of Love is Marriage and tlie Goal of Marriage is Maternity. When a young man and young woman are very much iu love every step of life they take is timed to the music of the wending march. The happy consumma tion may be years away, but down the path of the years the clear eyes of love discern the spot which some day they shall call home. And when the mar riage is consummated and the home founded another thought begins to fill the minds of wife and husband, a thought that lies too deep fcr words, the thought of a cooing baby voice, of IJ "/ the patter of tender baby ' / / feet and the music of happy If the love of man and woman leads to marriage, and marriage looks to mother hood, what is the plain and obvious duty of the woman at>out to assume the obli gations of wifehood and motherhood ? It is her duty to prepare herself for her own sake anh the sake of the children that may be given her, as well as for the sake of her husband aud her home. HOW TO PREPARE. The first thing to do is to cure diseases of the delicate organism which under mine the health and strength. Regu larity should be established, disagreeable and weakening drains must be stopped, weakness must be cured. " I have taken six bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription," writes Miss M. Fyfe, of OrilU. Simcoe Co., Ont.,"and two bottles of the 'Pleasant Pellets,' as you advised for congestion of the uterus, and for weakness, and can safely say that your medicine has been the means of restoring me to good health again, which I had not had for over three years, until taking your medicine. I thank you for your kind aud prompt at tention to my letter asking advice." £)r. Pierce's Favorite Prescription meets the needs of women at every |>e riod of life. It is invaluable iti that transition period when the becomes n woman, establishing regularity and pro moting the general health. It een for I)r. Pierce's medicines no doubt I would have suffered continually the rest of my life. I Shall always praise these preparations. The cost of them is so lit tle compared with the good I felt, yet I owe you for what you have done for me.V Try The CITIZ6N FOR JOs WORK TIIK NEXT STEP In wifely preparation Is to prepare for motherhood. Preparation by the usa of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will ?;ive bodily strength and mental cheer ulness. It will banish that feeling of fear and apprehension which so many women suffer from at this time. It will encourage the appetite, induce refresh ing sleep, and make the baby's adveut practically painless. "I was pleased that Dr. Pierce an swered my letter," writes Mrs. C. W. Young, of 21 South Regent Street (Lee Park), Wilkesbarre, Penna. "I had several mishaps before my husband per suaded me to take your medicine. My back used to almost break when at work and I would get sick at my stomach and have such headaches I did not know what to do; they used to set me nearly crazy, and I used to dread to get up, I felt so bad. Then I began taking your medicine. When baby was expected I took it all the time I was that way. I felt fine all the time and I never get those dizzy spells now. I hardly ever have a nervous headache any more. I have a perfect romp of a boy; he Is the light of our home. I am now twenty years old and my baby is utmost eight months old. I feel well, and weigh ISO pounds, and the baby pounds. We feel very grateful for the good your med icine did for us. W'e are IxUh hearty, thanks to Dr. Pierce's medicine." FOR BABY'S SAKE the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion is advised for all expectant mothers. It not only helps the mother but helps the child. All the child's strength must come from the mother. " Favorite Pre scription " fjlves the mother strength to give her child. Therf is no alcohol in "Favorite Pre scription" and it is absolutely free from opium, cocaine and all other narcotics. Women suffering from chronic ail ments are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter free. All letters are privately re ad and privately answered and the writ ten confluences of women are guarded by the same strict professional privacy ob served by Dr. I'ierce in his personal con sultations with women at the' Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute. Addrita Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. The invitation to consult Dr. Pierce by letter free is not to tie confounded with the spurious offers of medical ad vice which are made by irrespousiblo persons without knowledge or profes sional experience. YOUNG MARRIED PEOPLE and those looking forward to marriage will find Dr. Pierce's Common Setue Medical Adviser an invaluable guide to health and hoppiliess.
