Thanksgiving.
The first Rational Thanksgiving was
proclaimed by George Washington on
the third day of October, 1789, assign
ing Thursday, the 26th day of Novem
ber, as tbe date. He did this by
tbe request of a joint committee of both
Houses of Congress "to recommend to
the people of the United States a day
of public thanksgiving and prayer to be
observed by acknowledging with grate
ful heart* the many fcitrnnl favors of
Almighty God. especially by affording
tbein an opportunity peaceably to estab
lish a form of government for their
B\fety and happiness." Washington
bore out admirably tbe pious tone of its
sentiments. In his first sentence be
■ lid: "It is the duty of all nations to
acknowledge the providence of Al
mighty God, to obey His will, to be
grateful for His benefits, and humbly
to implore His protection and favor. '
The custom gradually fell into disuse
until 1883, when it was revived by
President Lincoln, and since then the
last Thursday in November has been
one of" our National holidays It is
very strange that there have been per
sons who tried to show that Lincoln
a skeptic, and that a book was
written in tbe attempt to prove it. But
in their testimony they have carefully
refrained from quoting his official mes
sages. In his first inaugural he an
nounced his "firm reliance on Him who
has never forsaken this favored land.'
and in his last official address of im
portance there were in the four or five
hundred words more than a dozen men
tions and reference to God and the
Bible, including this quotation: ' The
judgments of the Lord are true and
righteous altogether."
From Washington to Roosevelt every
President has proclaimed belief in God.
Tlie Legislature.
With a majority of 204 in the Legis
lature which convenes Jan. 3d, next,
the Republicans can, if they wish, re
deem every pledge made in the past by
party bosses, for political purposes only.
There should be a law requiring per
sonal registration, changes should be
made in the road laws and "Blue law, "
and some important amendments will
be offered to the Brooks and libel laws.
As to U. S. Senator. Mr. Knox will
not, probably, have any opposition.
The pay of State Senators and Legis
lators is $1,750 for the session, which in
cludes SIOO each for mileage and sta
tionery and SSO for stamps.
This legislature will organize under
different auspices from those of former
years and no man or set of men should
be allowed to dictate legislation.
It shonld be a model session, free from
jobbery of all kinds.
As to appointments it is to be pre
■umed that the two members from this
comity can secure something and we
commend to their kindly consideration
one or more of the men of this town
who have been put in distress, both
physically and financially, by the late
epidemic.
. POLITICAL.
President Roosevelt is being urged by
some Congressmen of the ni/rthwestern
section of the country to convene Con
gress in March next for the purpose of
revising the Tariff scheduler.
In Allegheny connty the Republicans
lost over 15,000 votes by incorrect mark
ings, and tbe Democrats about 5,000.
Tom Watson's explanation of the
overwhelming defeat of the Democratic
party at the late election is that tbe
people never before had an opportunity
to express themselves directly on the
•abject of Grover Cleveland's second
administration, and as Mr. Cleveland,
Perry Belmont. Qlney and others close
identified with the Wall Street bond
deal were the main supporters of Judge
Parker, they eagerly embraced tbe op
portunity to express their disapproval
of the whole bnnch at the polls. This
was one of the reasons. But of course
there were others.
Dawson's majority in West Virginia
over Cornwall was 8,451. Roosevelt
had 82,216.
The official vote of this Congressional
district was not known till Saturday
last Huff had 21,547 and Heineman,
8,824
Judge Parker has deserted Esopus,
and has opened law offices in New York,
adjoining those of William E. Sheehan,
tbe lieutenant of David B. Hill in the
contest for the nomination at St. Louis
Two hours after tbe name of Alton B.
Parker had been painted on tbe door
he had received two commissions from
Justice O'Gorman. of the Supreme
Court. They have to do with the ac
quisition of wharfage rights, and are
worth about ten thousand dollars to
bim. So the former leader of the
Democracy is apparently to be taken
care of.
President Roosevelt has announced
his intention of providing for Senator
Hoar of Massachusetts, and Senator
Cockicll of Missouri, both of whom lose
their seats in the Senate by the late
election. In New York Gov. Odell is,
after Depew's seat, and in Ohio, Senator
Foraker intends fighting the new Dick-
Her rick & Cox combine.
That Puzzle.
Mies Hazel Frazier of 128 Ziegler
Ave., Butler, was the first person to
send us a solution of the 1-25 pnzzle,
published in last week's CITITEN.
Her solution was on our desk at 8 u.
m., Friday, though answers were mail
ed us. same day, by Robert Ivell of
Marion twp, and S. U. Bowman of
* Bellevne. All the answers are correct.
The three answers all have the number
18 in the middle square, though the
puzzle can be solved with the 8 in tbe
middle.
An easy rule by which to do it is to
snrround yonr 5-square with 2 or 3
extra iquares—then write tbe figures 1.
2, 8, 4, 5 in a diagonal so that tbe 3 falls
in the upper right band square, the 6,
7, 8, 9, 10 in tbe second row of diago-
the 7, 8 and 9 falling within the
5-sqnare, tbe 11, 12, 18, 14, 15 In the
third row (all falling within the
5-eqnare) etc. This leaves some nnm
bers outside the 5-sqaare, and they are
put in in tbe order iu which they appear
tout on tbe opposite sides of tbe tquare,
and yon have this
11 24 7 20 3 '
4 12 25 8 10
17 5 18 21 9
10 18 1 14 22
23 6 19 2 15
The same principle is applied to cnbes
-mmA* up of smaller cubes, which makes
an interesting toy.
Since the above was put in type we
have received some ' 'answers, '' that add
op OS across and up-and-down, Lut not
dfrfonally.
WAR NOTES.
Im reased activity along the Shakhe
nver indicates the imminence of another
great batt!e. The present real or rela
tive strength of the two armies is un
known to outsiders, but it is known
thst both armies have been heavily re
inforced, and that the Russians are be
coming restless, as the advantage of de
lay there is now with the Japs. In
trenched armies, also, lose heavily by
disease, and the Japs know better how
to take care of themselves than do the
Russians. The sanitary arrangements
of the Japs are the most efficient on
record, and their losses from sickness
are practically nothing. On Tuesday
the Japs were reported to have captured
an important Pass, but were repulsed
in an attempt to take Lone Tn*e hill.
The Czar received an important mes
sage from General Stoessel, who is so
stubbornly holding the fort at Port
Arthur, last Wednesdty, which must
have been of exceptional importance,
judging from circumstances by
which its delivery was Com
munications with the beleaguered cita
del have been maintained throughout
the siege with considerable regularity
by means of wireless telegraphy to and
from the station maintained by the Rus
sian Consul, and when for any reason
that has not been available, through
the instrumentality of Chinese fugitives
and blockade runners, but in this case
the Russian general was unwilling to
entrust his dispatches to methods or
messengers rendering them liable to be
intercepted. For their conveyance he
employed the destroyer Rastoropny,
which took desperate cbancs of reach
ing its destination.
It left Port Arthur at midnight dur
ing a blinding snowstorm, and thread
ing its way, more by good luck than
good management, through the mines
with which the entrance to the harbor
is strewn, it arrived at Chefoo, China,
some time the following forenoon. Its
captain at once put his message on the
wire and upon learning that two Japa
nese destroyeis. had been seen in the
offing gave orders for the immediate
destruction of nis vessel in order to
prevent its falling into the hands of the
enemy. This was in pursuance of his
instructions and in execution of plans
which had been previously made, aDd
the question naturally arises, what
could have been the tenor of a message
so important and so imperatively press
ing that it was thought worth while to
saceifice a good boat for the sake of for
warding it without delay and with all
possible security to the Russian capital.
According to the story given out at
St. Petersburg General Stoessel's dis
patch contained nothing but good news.
It is said to have informed the Czar
that the situation at Port Arthur is
highly satisfactory, that there is on
hand an abundance of provisions and of
all necessary stores, and that the com
mander will be able to hold out until
the arrival of the Baltic squadron, even
though that arrival shonld be delayed
until some time in March. If that was
all Stoessel had to communicate the ex
traordinary means which he adopted to
make the communication cannot easily
be understood, but of course there was
something more which is being held
back, and even some of the St. Peters
burg reports delare that General Stoes
sel conditioned bis ability to bold out
upon his being supplied with additional
stores and ammnnition.
It is believed at Tokio that the object
of his message was to ask for instruc
tions whether he should resist to che
last extremity, or whether, when the
situation in his judgment becam9 abso
lutely hopeless, he should capitulate on
the best terms obtainable, and that is a
conjecture which has at least reason
ableness to support it. It is certain that
the conditions in Port Arthur must by
this time be deplorable, and as the be
siegers are redoubling their exertiors
and are making a progress which
though slow is sure, it is not conceivable
that tbe inevitable end can be much
longer postponed.
In tbe meantime the beginning of a
revolution is in progress in Russia. "At
a meeting of delegates from all over the
Empire, in St. Petersburg, Monday, the
following declaration was adopted:
"In order to secure the proper de
velopment of the life of the State and
the people, it is imperatively necessary
that there be regular participation of
national representatives, sitting as an
especially elected body, to makes laws,
regnlate the revenue and expenditure
and control the legality of the actions
of tbe administration."
A resolution was also adopted re
questing the Government to pardon all
political prisoners and exiles.

Rev. Prugh then addressed the asso
ciation, giving a very interesting a<:
count of his early days and of the
changes in this country from then until
the present. Rev. Prugh was born in
Maryland in 1822, and spent most of his
early days near Dayton, Ohio, as boy on
farm, school teacher, minister, ttc., un
til coming to Butler about 18 years ago.

dress the association at its next meet
ing.

The School lloiisc^
(Reminiscence of the old school house
• hat stood below Maharg. Major An
derson and Eugene Fererro were
teachers)
I love to remember when I was a bare
foot boy
I arose each morning my heart over
flowing with joy;
I was a stranger to sorrow and sin,
I cared not if my old bat had no rim.
Bat even the joys of a boy will come to
an end —
I knew the district school I should hive
to .attend.
I was as afraid of the teacher as anyone
could be.
But more afraid of the big girls
iug at me.
These girls weie a terror to me when a
boy,
But as 1 grew older they were my chief
joy.
I remember well one of those girle,
With her boamie brown eyes and long
silken curls
If I had studied my books as well as I
did her sweet face
I might have risen in lhis world to a
much higher place.
Those girls led me captive at their own
sweet will —
With all their faults I love them still.
They point out to me the beauty ot
Mars bung in space.
It is not so beautiful to me as was this
fair girl'f face.
They say up in Heaven great changes
in our looks are made.
But it is only the man—surely cot the
maid.
I have friends in Heaven whom I hope
to see,
In them I wish no changes to be
I have lived many years, I have had
both pleasure and pain;
It grievts me now 1 can never be a b<\
again
Time turn backward if only for one
da >'-
And make me au innocent boy again
engaged at my play.
