Supreme Court handed down an opinion at Washington. day, in the now famous snit brought to secure a distribution of the property of the Harmony society, also known as the Economite society. The suit involved property valued at over $4,000,000 and the litigation has lasted over eight years. The decision is a victory for John S. Dass, senior trustee of the society and the surviving members who are allied with him. The decision sustains the U. S. Court of Appeals in holding that the plaintiffs have no proprietary interests in the property involved. The operation for appendicitis per formed on the president of the Superior Court, Judge Charles E. Rii;e, has plac ed that Court in a position never before occupied by a high tribunal in the State of Pennsylvania. Of the seven judges of the Court, there are only four now able to perform their regular judicial duties, and these must all agree before a decision can be reached. Should one of them be incapacitated the work of the 9©nrt would be at a stand still, as a minority could not render a decision. Lawyers and their clients having cases before the Superior court are greatly pertrubed over its crippled condition and the possibility of delay in the liandliug of important cases.

For some days past the Pittsburg papers have contained acconnts of the mysterious shooting of a man named Bruce Head, a book-kteper at the Wabash tunnel, by a Dr. Duncan of Louisville Head and Duncan and his wife were neighbors and old friends and school mates in Lonisyille. Head came to Pittsburg some months a«o and lived at Greentree, south of Pittsburg Mis. Duncan visited a female friend named Anthony in the Enst End a month or so aiio. Head called upon Mrs Duncan at M:s Anthony's. Mrs. Duncan went home and somebody (said to be a jealous young woman) wrote Dr. Duncan a letter. Dr. Duncan came on to Pitts burg, during the fore part of last week, went out to see Head, greeted him cordially, induced him to walk to the Crt station with him and on thp way suddenly pulled out a pistol and shot him. He intended shooting him in the breast but Head caught the pistol and the ball entered his month, cutting his tongue. The Dr was arrested and jailed; Head was first expected to die, but seems to be recovering Nobody con nected with the affair will give any reasons for the shooting. The Gov ernor of Kentucky wired Duncan his sympathy and offered aid, Mrs. An thony is said to pet a pug dog. etc. and it looks as though the facts of the case would ndf come out till the trial. On the farm of J. L. Knnkle in West moreland Co., Nature is "slipping a cog" to repair the ruin she wrought over three months ago.

Tlieir Diamond Anniversary. i <Treat crowds of the good people of Butler surged through the clothing store of Douthett & Grahaiu.last Tliurs ; day evening, admiring the beanty of i its appointments; wondering at the im mensity of its stock, and congratulating the proprietors on their nnparalleled i success. And each visitor carried away J a carnation, as sweet to his sense of ' smell as has betn Messrs Douthett and Graham's success to their other senses Ten years ago. W. G. Donthett and H. W. F. Graham formed a partnership in the clothing business: they started in a small way. gave close attention to their business, have prospered amazingly, and now have two stons. one in Butler and one in Youngstown, in each of which they carry a stock, worth about $50,000. To celebrate their Tenth or Diamond anniversary they decided to enlarge their store here and have an opening or celebration, and for this their splendid store room was brilliantly lighted, the spacious windows were tastefully tilled with fall clothing and gents furnish ing, representing the latest and best things in each line. Within, the splendid stock was nettly arranged upon tables and in beautiful glass cases- The room was handsomely decorated with plants and flowers. An orchestra furnished music at inter vals during the evening and thousands of souvenirs were given away Over fonr thousand people visited she store during the evening Mr. Douthett stood near the entrance aud greeted hi" guests, shaking bands with uiost of them. It was a notable event in But ler's mercantile history as well HS in this aggressi\*e clorhing house William G. Douthett and Hart V. F Graham, are the individual members of this firm. Both of these gentlemen are Butler county boys, and today stand in the front rank in mercantile lines. Mr Douthett was born m Forward township in and is the son of David and Jane E. Douthett. For some years he had charge of his father s farm until 1891, when he engaged in the livery business. Two years later he formed a partnership with Mr Graham, established the business which has grown from a small beginning to its present extensive proportions. The other member of the firm, Mr. Graham, was born in 1860 in this city. He brought to the present venture, a ripe experience. First, having been em ployed iu the Union Mills where he gain ed a full knowledge of the details in the manufacture of woolen goods of all kinds, and later on was salesman for H. Schneideman. the Clothier, and at present has an experience which covers 1!) years. Realizing that there was great ad vantage in bnying in large quantities, securing the best of terms thereby, to the benefit of their customers, these pro gressive and wide awake gentlemen established in 1888 a branch store at Youngstown. Ohio, under the personal charge of Mr. Graham, aud the success of this latter undertaking has been as phenomenal and gratifying as that ot the home store. A force of ten com petent and courteous assistants in Youngstown, and the same number in the store here, attend to the various wants of the numerous patrons of these popular stores. Two cardinal regulate the business of this to everybody, plainly marked on every article; second, to' mate good to their customers every garment or article, or cheerfully refund the money if goods should be returned. It is by fair deal ing that their present large trade has been established. It is a gratifying ex emplification of the fact that integrity, industry, aud upright dealing, directed by gbod judgment and common sense, compel success. With the enlarged and handsome new store rooms, thyre will be added facilities for their continuous ly increasing trade. He was Forgetful. A well known business man in the Third ward is noted for hisabsentiniud edness. For several years it has caused him a great deal of annoyance, bat on Tuesday it capped the climax when he went up to Oil City to make a purchase and was about to write a check in pay ment for the same. He forgot his name. Think as hard as he could, he could not think of his cognomen. He looked to see if he had any letters addressed to himself in his pocket. There \*ere none He was in a quandry Finally he man aged to remember that he had a friend living on the South Side. He made an excuse, went over to that part of the town, found out who he was, returned and filled out the check and signed it It is needless to say that as soon as he arrived in Franklin he had a 1000 busi ness cards printed, and now he always carries a pocket full of them. —Franklin News. Butler county, like most counties, has its absent minded man too. He is a well-to-do farmer, and on one occasion rode horseback to the station, two miles from home. When he had transacted his business at the station he started homo atoot, and when he reached his home and set about putting his horse away he remembered that he left it tied to a hitching post at the station —Daily Eagle.
