neatly handled, without a headache. To
him who is a tenderfoot in these high

it beforehand*"--Franklin Spectator.

straight up the hill past the cemetery
: to Cottage Hill, and did it considerably
: faster than a horse could walk: nor did ,
j he have any trouble coming down. The
i bill is about a 25-degree grade.
—The burning question with the de
voted and conscientious young girl just
now is, how to get a corset that will
give her dress the straight front and
long curved hip effect. Brothers, we
don't know what trouble is. Imagine
yourself obliged to get the curved line
of bulbous beauty on your bony shanks.

—One of the foreigners—they are said
to be Slavs—who had a brokerage or ex
change office, over the Cypher hard
ware store, died last night, of jaundice,
but nobody abont the store knows their
names. Their business is or was to ex
change the American money paid out

and they are agents for a large firm
that has branches or offices all over the
civilized world.
—The Geimania favored the people
of Butler with another of their fine con
certs last Friday evening. The front of
the Court House acts as a sounding box
and throws the sounds across the street,
where hundreds of people stood—stood
till they got tired. When the improve
ments in the Park are completed,would
not rows of benches along the street
and walks be the proper thing; and it
would n-'t be out of place for the Boro.
to drop a dollar into the Orchestra's
pocket book.
—Now that under the new "good
roads" law the State offers to pay two
thirds if the county will pay one-sixth
and tlic township the remaining sixth,
of i he* cost of macadamizing our high
ways and turnpikes, what is the matter
with the supervisors, or the farmers, of
Bntler township petitioning the County
Commissioner-) to have "good roads,"
according to State requirements, made
as follows: Mercer pike north to twp.
line; Mii'c-rstown read to tbe Keams
place; Freeport pike to twp line; upper
Harmony road to tv p line; Powder
Mill road to O. K. Waldron'e; Whites
town road to Marshall place, and New
Castle road to Jacob Rice's place. It
would pay the township to issue bonds
for tbe purpose, if the expense would be
too much, as it undoubtedly would be,
to be met by the ordinary revenues. It
would be the best tnrn Butler township
ever did herself.
The S. S. Convention.
The people of Bruin and vicinity took
care of the hundred or two delegates to
the ?6th Annual Convention of tbe
County Sabbath School Association,
wlrch met in their town last week and
the returning delegates highly of
them
Tte meeting WKH A success in every
respict. '.he program was long and
varied ar.d some splendid addresses
were made: the old officers were re-elect
ed and Bntler was (-elected as the next
meeting place.
Hotel Kelly, Cambridge Springs
This comfortable hotel is situated
about one-half or three-quarters of a
mile north of the city on a large farm
owned by the proprietors, or rather on
that part of the farm nearest to the
city. Here the guests are sure to find
sunshine,shade,light and air at all hours.
It is surely a very lien'thy location.
Connected or controlled by the hotel
are two popular spring* about one
quarter of a mile distant and on the
road leading to the city. The waters of
these springs are free to all gaests of
the hotel and are freely used to their
great benefit and satisfaction. The
farm supplies fresh milk, butter and
vegetables, as well as fowls and other
eatables raised thereon. It is needless
to add that these Are always fresh and
good.
Two carriages are employed to con
vey all guests to and from the city any
time they desire to make the trip; also
to and from the depots. The hotel is
well hailt and its business has been so
satisfactory tbat extensive additions are
contemplated, which we understand is
1 to be an extensian in front and north
side, practically duplicating the house.
To a large number of visitors to Cam
bridge Springs the Ho£el Kelly offers
jnst such a change as is most needed
and desired—the change from city to
country life, especially pure air and
beautiful sunshine. And yet at this
hotel are to be found all the modern
conveniences which are always expect
ed in town. The city is in plain sight
five minutes' ride and a ten minutes'
walk.
Another advantage offered at Hotel
Kelly is a more reasonable rate than is
expected at the hotels in town. The
proprietors own this property, and, as
they raise their own vegetables, poul
try, etc., and produce their own butter
and milk, they are thus enabled to offer
lower rates
A. Kelley & Sons are the owners and
proprietors, The senior is of the bank
ing firm of J. L. & A. Kelley, and his
two sons have tbe practical managment
of the hotel, one of whom is mayor of
the city.

Hail Coon in Town.
Martin Eisler. the gardener, of S. ME
Kean St., is also a chicken fancier, and
raises as fine fowls as can I*' found in
Butler.
For some nights, lately, something i he
' could not guess what) has been entering
| his coops, and killing his chickens, so
: he set a trap, and when he heard a com
! motion in the coops, early yesterday
■ morning, he hurried there and found a
i live ccxih—a raccoon—in the trap. He '
killed the coon, and a neighbor who ate :
it says it had the genuine Leghorn tia-,
vor.
Where the coon came from was for j
awhile a mystery, and Martin thought j
of prosecuting the Pittsburg Gazette i
for letting loose its animal, but a two i
legged •"coon" who works at a hotel
nearby, says that his pet left his bed
and board some days ago and sot out
bear-headed to hunt the wolf.
Anyways he was caught red-mouthed
and deserved his fate.and the only legal
question in the matter is as to payment
for the chickens
