Sam Miller's alleged expression "I
would rather spend three months in

politics," is being qnoted all over the
county,and as each editor wbopnblishes
it changes it a little it has lost all sem
blance to the original. A far west

is more gratitude in hell than can be
found in politics, if you are in politics
as a judge."
James H, Hyde was re-elected Mana
ger of the Equitable Life Insurance Co.
of New York, in spite of the opposition
to him which originated in a fancy
dress ball.
To base an attempt to drive a man

Xn the allegation that he spent S3O,
on a fancy drees ball was to invite
ridicule. Mr. Hyde.s fortune probably
equals $50,000,00u, his income being at
least $2,000,000. Tha expenditure oi
S3O 000 among florists, caterers, dress
makers and decorators put that much
money in circnlation

Mrs. Nation had Horn arrested He

sot and attempted to take a cigar out
of his mouth. The jury endorsed Bill
by returning a verdict of not guilty.

the Pittsburg Dry Gooes Company has
consolidated its various factories. The
shirt factory closes this week and bids
good-bye to Butler. Mr. Breckenridge

citizen and pleasant, genial neighbor.
Dnring the late fever epedemic his
factory was forced to close for want of
hand* and Mr. Breckenridge gave weeks
of his time and labor to the work of the
Relief Committee. We are sorry to

Letter to John llickel,
Htitier, Pa.
Dear sir; Would you rather have your
customers speak St your shoes as wear
ing well, as not running down at the
heel, as turning water, and taking a
shine; or wag their beads and say noth
ing?
We'd rather have ours, at long inter
vals say: "We want some more paint,
and we want Devoe." We know it isn't
io human nature to paint very often; we
don't expect them to come very often;
don't want 'em to. All we want is to
paint what they have to paint, when
ever they paint it; the longer the time,
the surer they are come-back. There's
business enongh in the world; there are
houses enough to paint; let 'em take
their time.
If we were a shoemaker, we'd make
shoes to last half a lifetime, and shoe
the whole town.
Yours truly
F W Devoe & Co

The Walker Case.
John H. Walker, a traveling doc
tor. and to be a native of Ken
tucky. appeared in this county some
years ago and became acquainted with
Mrs. Margaret Jane Brown and her
daughter, Auna. of Middlesex twp.
The daughter married him and he
made his home with his mother in-law.
who was a well-to-do widow, owning a
farm: and who gave him a power of at
torney to attend to her affairs.
Now the farm and everything on it
has passed into the hands of others, the
two women are in their graves and the
' doctor" is in jail on a charge of larceny
iby bailee, and is also held pending
an analysis of the stomachs of the two
women.
Mrs. Brown died on Jan. 2*. and
Mrs. Walker on Feb. 2d. Mrs. Brown
seems to haye died without' attention at
the time of her death and to have been
found dead, and though Dr. McClelland
testified that he had been attending her,
as she was feeble and blind, it was said
tliat she was dead for several hours be
fore anyone knew it. Mrs. Walker who
had been in good health, died suddenly
during the night.
Tiiese circumstances and the conduct
and alleged remarks of Walker, led to
an investigation by the Coroner. A
jury was sworn, the b xlies exhumed
and the stomachs removed, and some
evidence heard, last Saturday. and
pending the result of the chemical
analysis of the stomachs Walker will
probably remain in jail.
