Two anti-trnst bills prepared by At torney General Knox were introduced in the House, last Thursday, by Mr. Jenkins, chairman of the Judiciary committee. One ameads the Sherman ami-trust law, the chief feature being a provision that it shall be unlawful for any person to offer, grant or give, or solicit, accept or receiye a rebate, con cession or service for transportation of any property in interstate or foreign commerce whereby such property is transported at a less rate than that named in the published tariff of tbe car rier, a fine of $5,000 beinays. I was born in Allegheny county, in what was called the old Hays mansion It was a hotel and it stood on the old Pittsburg and Erie turnpike, 11 miles north of Pittsburg. My earliest recol lection is of a stage coach and four horses. The hotel had a large swing ing sign with a stage coach and four horses painted on it and the inscription below was PEACE AND POVKRTY. But tbe sign certainly belied its name, for there was plenty to eat there. Gilmore Campbell said to me not long belore be died, "Alexander, when I got out of the old stage at your father's, at daylight in the morning, I conld eat a yard of sausage." I can remember the names of a great many persons that rode in the old stage on the old pike, when I was old enough to drive on the plank road. They were John Negley, Sr., John Negley, Jr., Felix Negley, Wm. and Gilmore Camp bell, Dnulap McLaughlin, Engene Fer rero David Walker, David Dcngal, Jacob Zeigler. Wm. Bozel, L. Z. Mitchel, Mr. Muntz, Jacob Faller, Samuel Purvis, Curt and John Smith, Jerry Mcßride, Henry Heineman, Lewis, Barny and Simp Walker, and, as they say on the vendue bills, others "too numerous to mention." Of the drivers, that drove on the old pike, as far as I know, there are but two living—Nicholas Hlupe of Jefferson twp. ami Michael KnaufT of Glade Mills. The old drivers that have pass ed away are John and Mike Teets, Charles Hays, Joe and John Grtjbbs, Creighton Ramsey, Colby Dick Crozier, Crist Stoner, Jake, Eli and Isaac Hart zell, Gordon and Win. Brown, John and Abe Kiskaddon, Abe Austin, Billy Gray, Archie L«'e. Israel Colt, John Burkhard. Dutch Mike and French Joe —there never was known an Irish stane driver. John Seth—there was a great joke on .Seth —it was this. He had an impede ment in his speech, there was a man in Butler who kept a hat store, he too had an impediment in his speech, they were strangers, there was a style of hat then called Castor hats, Seth wanted to bny one and he said. "Mr. G-G-Gil c-c-crist I w-w-wa a C-C-C-tor h-hat.' "D-d-damn yon, 1-I*ll k-k-kickyou into the street." So innch for the old drivers. "Peace to their ashes." I met Mr. James Addis of New Castle in the CITIZEN office recently. We had never met, but we compared notes. He was keeping a toll gate in Stewartstown, now Etna, when I was born. The drivers who drove on the plank road were Billy Mitchell of Butler, Howe Lyon of Butler, Dan Bnlford. Billy Powell, Lot Jewell. Arthur and Tom Hay 8, Isaac, Andy and Sam Mill iron. Alex and John Williamson. Jake Cricks, John Reed, Sim Yeagle, J. Mc- Gowau, Tom Cunningham. Sile Dar rah, Jas. Harbison and your humble servent. The old wagoners that hauled from Butler to Ujttsburg were Dave Bean. Rhody Waltermyer, Col. Dickson, Jon athan Plummer. Martin Ramsey, Alex Troutman and Wm. Richey. When my father and Arthur McGill first contracted to carry the mail from Pittsburg to Erie they rode on horse back to Washington, D. C. to bid for the mail. They would be gone a month, that is eighty years ago; people wonld not like to travel from Butler to Pitts burg in that style now and get out and get rails and pry the old stage out of the mud holes. People were just as happy then as now. In the string of one year when the mud was pretty well dried up with only a hole here and there the stage had stalled in one of them, Dan Rice's cir cus came along and the keeper motion ed to the elephant to push the stage out of the hole and he put his head against the stage and heaved it out Father had a pet bear, a very large black fellow and when the weather was fine he was tied to a large tree close by: the dinner table was set in the long dining room for the stage pass?ngers, the bear got loose, a table was not com plete those times unless it had large plates of honey, here and there all over the table, he jumped on the table, drew the long chain after him, he hauled the dishes off on the floor, the table looked like the besom of destruction, and there were some words said then that are not down on the Sunday School catalogue. I need hardly pay tha*; there was no honey left, bears love honey. I often wonder what has become of the fine horses of those days; there was a breed of horses then called the Con nestoga breed, they were fit for both stage and wagon, they would weigh from 15 to 10-hundred pounds, had both weight and action. A great curse fell upon this country when Wash Bales of Freeport brought old Tom from England, with his dinner-plate feet, and legs as thick and round as a churn and ruined our fine horses. He exhibted him at the Butler County Fair the fall of '59. There was a drunken fellow there, he said to the keeper of the horse, "you have brought an old ran down dray horse to palm off on us hoosiers, but yon can't come it, Judge, without a horse." It was a fine sight to see the coaches leave Pittsburg every morning on the different routes. Twenty left every day for Philadelphia on the old Greens burg pike; there was an opposition line and the drivers had a fine time. lacing One line had spears driven in the ends of the lead bars to prevent the other line from passing. Simp Walker ran the last stage coach into Butler. I think in the year '73, it was buried, a procession following it An old stage coach stood in the rear of where Troutiran's store now is,under a shed. Gilmore Campbell often told me to go and look at it. He said it would remind me of old stage times "It stands in a stable yard under the eaves, "* Leaning to one side and covered with leaves, It was once the pride of the gay and the fair, But it has now gone to ruin—that old stage there." AL,KX M. HAYS. Proof Enough. o A Mother's Statement of a Fine Result A Weak Neivous Little One Made Strong and Vigorous. Mrs. Maggie Edwards of 346 West St., Butler, Pa., says: "My boy aged 11 years who by reason of overwork ra*i down—could not eat or rest. He was nervous and did not sleep well at night. He needed lifting up and I got some of Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills for him at D. H. Wuller's Drug Store. The medi cine has acted in a more than satisfactoiv manner. He eats finely—strength com ing back fast—nerves steady and sleep ing well. There is no question but that a short time will put him right again. The gaiu in health has been very rapid."
