—The Buchanan Co's bid to the slat
for that Zelienople bridge was S4O. 700

—lf all reports about the Harmon)
"chicken farm" are true some people

—The cantaloupes now in market
were raised in the southern states, ana
Me tasteless because they were pullet,

Rocky Fords will not be here for a week

—Saxonburg is one of the prettiest
towns in the county. The hotels there
are good, so is the mineral water; the
people show their refinement by their
taste for flowers, and it is no wonder
that the town is tall ot summer board
en.
—Some of our antomobilists are mak
ing nuisances of themselves by driving
their machines too fast on our pavM

limbs of those on the streets, besi<ie>
scaring horses. And drivers of g<« d
horses are using oar streets for racing
purposes.
—Somebody has invented a safety aj -
pliance for railroads that every bod

the electrical circuit, to stop the train
automatically, and the model is said to
work ail right
—Miss Ruth Hoffer, one of tl e

funds. She may soon be repenting the
aaying with variations, "A fool and his
(heg money are soon parted."
—The county roads are in excellent
condition for driving, and yet our sports
continue to apeed their autos and horses
on the paved streets. Perhaps this in
because they have to go npa hill to get
out of town, and for this one reason, it
so other, we wonld like to see the state
grade and bnild a road up one of onr
▼alleys. A road np the valley to and
a round the Park connecting with both
the . Mercer and New Castle roads
wonld do splendidly.
—One of the oddest, and at the same

years picnic or "Buckwheat Reunion"
as they call it, occurred on Wednesday
of last week: the Grove was crowded,
: about ten thousand people were present
mostly from the three counties that cor
ner near. There was plenty to eat, a
few speeches were made from the j lat
form and everybody seemel to enjoy
the affair.
—Saturday was a gala time for the
Bntler base ball clnb. Two victiriis
being scored in one afternoon. The
llrst game with the Car Works team re

Crea allowing bnt one hit and striking
vnt 11 men in 8 innings. In the second
they took reyenge on their old enemy
the Zelienople Reds. 12 to 6. They
ponnded Joe Kavanaugh for 14 good
Wg hits. Zelienople made 10 hits off
McLafferty. The fielding and battit g
of McCrea, Anderson, Bayers, Graham
and McLafferty was good to see.
—"Those travelers who have seen our
big trees out in California will be sorry j
to hear the bad news about the Grizzly j
Giant, the best known of all the mon-1
•robs of our forests. This tr.e, ihe
pride of the Mariposa grove, is slowly j
dying, and in a little while will be d< -1
void of foliage. It is also leaning is
feet from Its centre axis and will con-!
tinue to lose its equilibrium until some
4av it will com# crashing to the earth.
- To pnt off this evil hour arrangements
are now being made to brace the trunk
tvlth cable*. The giant is 224 feet
and 109 feet in circumference."

Judge Parker is said to be something
.f a politician, bat the newspaper cor
-espondents wno are hovering aronuo
;»opns are having a rather irksome ex
perience. The Judge refuses to saj
mything.and the only things he will do
ire to sit on his front porch and take his

If, instead of sitting on his front porch,
he would stand on his head in the back
>ard;or, instead of swimming in the
tiudson, would turn summersaults from

Tom Clark of the Pittsburg Dispatch
was "turned down" by a Bntler girl,
the other day, and gets square with her
in one of his "Side Show" idiocies in
■ his way: "Step this way, ladies arm
gentlemen, and i will ask you to look
it one of the most marvelous freaks
now on exhibition! Madame Frozen
nee was born in Butler county. Pa., in
1852. She is the one and only woman
ii lhe world who has ever been satisfied
kith her own photograph. She is th>

—Jr.stwhat prompts dumb brutes to
do certain odd things has never been de
•■rmiiied, and probably no person is
i le to explain just why a cat who had
i family of kittens in one of the barns
vhich WHS destroyed by fire Saturday
■ light removed the kittens during the
previous afternoon to another barn in
the neighborhood, where the fire did
not reach. Apparently there was no
other reason for the change than that
■ussy bad a presentiment that some
thing was going to happen to her pres
ent quarters, and with true feline ten
derness she carried her kittens in her
mouth, one at a time to her newiy se
lected quarters, where, when the fire
raged, they were safe. —Exchange.
—D. A. Dennison of the Bradford Era,
isn't in the habit of takiug everything
that comes his way, but when he saw a
baud reaching a tray of jewelry out of
a back window a few mornings ago he
kindly took it to oblige the man inside
the window who evidently mistook Mr.
Dennison for a confederate. When Mr.
Dennison got possinsiou i f the tray he
-.-I it do Aii on the walk fo as to t»- bet
tor prepared to t:ike advantage of what
he expected to follow. In this he WHS
not mistaken as the burglar came oni
promptly and was at once collared by
»Ir. iJtnnir n. The burglar provtd to
oe Fred Sanborn, a professional wrest
ler, who fought desperately to escape,
but Mr. Deuntson who is a powerful
man threw him to the ground and sat
o:i him until an officer appeared when
t le prisoner was marched to the lockup.

Some weeks ago a girlof about eleven
years, whose home was in Franklin twp.
near I«le. who had been working or vis
iting in New Castle was brought by a
huckster as far as West Liberty, where
she stayed over ninbt. Next morning
she started to walk home, but was tak
en sick on the way. and was found ly
ing along the road and taken home.
She developed what is called black
diptheria. and died soon after.
Her name was Hutton and she was
the daughter of a coal miner of that
name. Four more of the children of
the family went dowu with the name
disease, one of whom has since died.
The case was reported to the Connty
Commissioners, and Mr. McCandless,
whose home is not far away, investigat
ed it, and secured a Miss Scolt, a train
ed nurse, to go to the house and assist
the parents who were worn out by their
troubles, anil also instructed the store
keeper at Isle to furnish all the supplies
needed.
Council Proceedings.
A special meeting of the Town
Council was held last night at which
the report of the committee consisting
of Edward Lantz. J. B. McJunkin and
Robert Fowser, who visited the garbage
furnaces at New Castle and Meadville.
was received. The Council then wrestled
with the present garbage crisis, which
involves tbe burning of the mass of stuff
left by Contractor Robinson, who has
skipped his job, proceedings on Robin
son's bond, making or procuring a
usable road to the present location or
else buying a new location, and erect
ing a " 15-ton odorless furnace which
will do the work, and which will cost
from SSOOO to |BOOO.
The town owns a 40foot street through
the Roessing property almost to the
present furnace location, but to an ob
server it looks as though the Butler Ice
Co. which owns the ground between the
furnace and Negley Ave. was trying to
sell this lot for s:'>soo.

Doctor the Constitution,
l irt-Tone takes right hold of any

healthy foundation. 1
It puts life and vigor into the body

That is what the child needs, that is

IVople grow thin, pale, even become
;o ill they are obliged to givfe up their
occupation, when there is nothing

To say that I'in-Tone is worth its
vcight in gold to those suffering from
lack of energy is to speak lightly of
t. It is invaluable as it begins its
vork with the first dose and in a
"cmarkably short space of time the

Many miserable wrecks have been
