—An nosuccassful attempt was made
to rob the First National Bank of
Parker, last Sundi^y.
—Some of the rural route carriers

—J. V. Ritts, A 1 Reiber, J. H. Trout
man and other local capitalists are said
to have formed a wholesale grocery
company.
—lnportant property transfers in
Batler indicate the strenuousness of the
Building Boom that will prevail in But
ler,: this year.
—The "rag-time millionare" is the
name of a new waltz that some of the
boys of this town have learned to their
cost and sorrow.
—As Veneznela has refused his offer
of a loan, it might be well for Mr. Car
negie to start a library in Caraccas, and
stock It with books on political econo
my.
--Susan B. Anthony says that Har
vard graduates do not make the best
fathers. It would be interesting to
know what brand of education, in her
estimation, does make the best male pa
rent.
—James Meeks, a coal-miner living
near Hilliard, left his house Satur
day night after saying "Goodbye" to
his wife. He wore only a pair of gum
shoes on his feet at the time. On Mon
day he ate dinner at Branchton and has

—A Tennessee Legislator introduced
a bill making it illegal for a man to
kiss women between sixteen and sixty
unless the female party was his wife.
The Legislature passed the bill with an
amendment making it applicable only
to the man who introduced it. That
was justice swift and sure.—Ex.
—One of our physicians remarked the
other day that Butler's dirty streets
needed the attention of the Board of
Health worse than the few isolated
oases of smallpox, and that the filthy
condition of the business streets is far
more threatening and dangerous to the
pnblic health than are any cases of dis
ease in the town
—The intensly cold weather in the
western states snapped the wires, and
for a time. Tuesday, Chicago was cut off
from communication with the rest of
the world. The mercury ranged from
1 degree above zero at Louisville to 24
below in Wisconsin. In some towns a
shortage of fuel caused great suffering.
—The "oldest citizen" of this world,
according to the Russian papers, is in
the hospital at Tomac in that country.
He is 200 years old. They say this
statement is supported by documents.
The man has bsen a widower for 123
years. He had a son, who died in 1824,
Aged 90 years. He remembers seeing
Peter the Great. He is bed-ridden, but
mentally sound.
—The dilemma of the people of Pitts
bnrg over the Recorderßhip, reminded
Dispatch's editor of that of the man who
"was on bis way to visit for the first
time a town in this region then in the
primal stages of its transition from a vil
lage to an industrial city. Asking a
fellow-passenger on the train what
hotel he had better stop at, he received
this reply; "It don't make any differ
once. Whatever hotel you go to, you'll
wish you had gone to the other!"
—The most important property trans
fer in Butler, during the past few days
was that of the Pape heirs to Daniel
Younkius of 30 ft. front on N. Main st.
—corner of North—for $12,000, or S4OO
per foot front; and next after that was
Will Rumberger's transfer of the old
Miller property at S. McKean and E.
Wayne to one of the Abrams for $9,000
or $75 per foot front. The J. F. Lowry
residence on W* Pearl changed hands
for $9,000 and the J. M. Miller residence
on Mercer for $5,000.
Butler Public Library.
Miss Clara McJnnkin, Librarian, in
her report off the past year says;—
?! "The library now contains 1,791 vol
umes, 1,865 of which are fiction, 426
history. biography, science, politics,
etc.: 164 volumes have been purchased
this year and 16 volumes donated by
friends; 615 cards have been made out,
or that number of people have been
borrowers during the year. I suppose
it would be safe to say that at
least two persons have access to each
book loaned, which would indicate a
clientage of at least I.2QP people. In a
number of cases several members of one
family hold cards, but the majority are
aincle borrowers in a family.
There has been of late months more
of a demand for scientific books. Young
men have inquired for works on mathe
matics, electricity, philosophy and even
dentistry and gardening. It would also
be gratifying to have more and better
reference books for the use of the school
children who solicit help for their com
position work. etc.
There has also been a growing sen
timent this year in favor of a public
reading-room. So many people have
inquired for one, bave come up to the
library expecting to find one; so many
Strangers have expressed surprise at a
town of tbe population and advanced
ideas in other directions as Butler is,
not having a public reading room and
more of a library for its people, when
it could better afford one than other
towns enjoying the privilege; and so
many persons, young and old, have
suggested the advisability of some steps
being taken towards providing the town
•with one. that I feel it my duty to bring
the matter before the club, it being the
association people would naturally ex
pect to take the initative in the matter."

While a theatrical company was hold
ing the attention of an audience at the
Park theater last Wednesday in "A
Desperate Change," (the Biddle play,)
Constable Brown, was serving subpeuas
on James J. Stevenson and wife at Mt.
Chestnut, who are desired as witnesses
in the trial of the divorce-, suit of Peter
K. Soffel against his wife, Kate Soffel.
Speaking of outside charters an ex
change remarks '"there is no inter-State
comity authorizing one State to charter
companies to violate the laws of other
States, although New Jersey and one or
two others seem to have gone into busi
ness on that hypothesis."
The Superior Court annulled the
Juvenile Court act. last week, by de
claring it unconstitutional. "The act
is shown to have been in conflict with
the constitution of the State in a variety
of ways. There is a lack of conformity
between its title and its subject. There
is an attempt to create what is sub
stantially a new court, while assuming
to do no more than to extend the func
tions and enlarge the powers of an old
one. There is a classification of persons
in respect of their criminal liability
which is in conflict with the common
law, and there is an evasion of the con
stitutional mandate by virtue of which
all judges must be elected by the peo
ple. An appeal lies from the Superior
to the Supreme court, but under the cir
cumstances it would not be worth while
carrying the litigation further, and the
statement has been made that this will
not be done."
Racz Niholz, a Slav,is in jail for a&b.
The jury in the Indianapolis grave
robbing case agreed to disagree after
being out for two days. The perplexing
question in the minds of the jurors, was
whether Dr. Alexander had guilty
knowledge of the fact that the body of

taken from the grave. They say that
the matter of the insanity of Cantrell,
the negro leader of the ghouls, who
swore that Alexander hired him to rob
graves, received very little considera
tion.

It is gay in sentiment and a very bril
liant number generally. Her three
songs are happily chosen and each is a
work of a master.
