The treaty of Peace between Japan and Bussia, consisting of seventeen articles was agreed upon, in all its de tails by last Saturday evening. On Mon day four copies of it were made in English and French, and on Tuesday afternoon these were signed by the plenipotentiaries df each nation, in the presence of each other, and a number of others. Then Mr. Witte without a word, reached across the table and grasped Baron Komura's hand. His confreres followed and the Bussian and Japanese delegates remained for a moment in silence,their right hands tightly clasped serosa the conference table. The war was over—Bussia and Japan were once more friends. This simple ceremony rang true and deeply impressed the attaches and secre taries of the two missions, who, with the invited witnesses, had formed a large circle around the delegates sitting at the table. Baron de Rosen was the first to break the silence. Rising from his seat, the ambassador, looking Baron Komura and Mr. Takahira straight in the eye, said a few words which one ha I only to hear to know that they came from bis heart. He began by saying that he wished, on of Mr. Witte, Russia's first pleni potentiary, and in his own name to say a few words. —"We have just signed," continued the ambassador, "an act which will have forever a place in the annals of history. It is not for us active particip ants in the conclusion of this treaty to pass judgment on its import and sig nificance. "An negotiators on behalf of the em g pire of Russia, as well as the empire of Span, we may with tranquil conscience, say that we have done all that was in our power in order to bring about the peace for which the whole civilized world was longing. As plenipotentiaries of Bussia, we fulfill a most agreeable <**>■ in acknowledging that in negotiat "TKtfWth our hitherto adversaries, and from this hour our friends, we have H been dealing with true and thorough gentlemen, to whom we are happy to express our high esteem and personal regard. "We earnestly hope that friendly re - lations between the two empires will henceforth be firmly established and we trust that His Excellency Baron Kom ura, as minister of foreign affairs and one of the leading statesman of his country, will apply to the strengthening 5 of theee relations, the wide experience and wise statesmanship he so conspicu ously displayed during these negotia tions, which have now been' so auspic ■ iously concluded. " Baron Komura replied that he shared entirely the views of Baron De Boeen. ~ t -Hl—— mS fw just signed, he said, was in the interest of humanity and uiyilization and he was happy to believe that it would bring about a firm, lasting peace between two neighboring empires. He added that it would always be pleasant for him to recall that through out the long and serious negotiations 6 ' which they nave now left behind them he and his colleagues have invariably received from the Bnssian plenipoten tiaries the highest conrtesy and con sideration jmd finally he begged to as sure the Bussian plenipotentiaries that it would be his duty as well as his t pleasure to do everything in his power to make the treaty in fact what it pro fesses to be in words—a treaty of peace and amity. At the conclusion of Baron Komura s remarks Mr. Witte arose and said he de sired to see Baron De Boeen and the Japanese plenipotentiaries alone for a few minutes. The four retired to the Russian office and were closeted for ten minutes. What transpired in that final conference of the peacemakers the world may never know. The plenipo tentfaries, however, refused to discuss It even to their secretaries. 1 11 While the conference was in progress v the secretaries were affixing the official seal to the treaty, there being four seals to each of the four copies. Upon their return to the conference the plenipotentiaries then signed the protocol of their last meeting, which records the signing of the treaty, Sept. 5,1906, at 8:50 in the Portsmouth navy yard. After this there was general hand shaking and a buffet luncheon was served, the Bussians and Japanese in formally drinking each others health. Shortly" before 5 o'clock the Bnssian mission left the yard for the Thanks giving service at Christ church, and the Japanese returned to the hotel. As the crowds near the church caught right. of Mr. Witte, they began a cheer that did not die nntil he had passed into the church. It was probably the great est at the many ovations he nns received since he came to this country. The service of thanksgiving in Christ Episcopal church this evening was near ly two nours in length. For the first time in this oountry, it is said, the English and Bussian tongues were heard together at a service in an Ameri oan church. The substance of the treaty is about as has been published; it is to be ratified by the sovereigns of the two countries • within fifty days, and Manchuria is to be completely evacuated by the two armies within eighteen months. The reported disaffection in the Japanese pxmy regarding the treaty,and threaten, ad revolt, seem to have been exagger ated. The Russian People. Samuel L. Clemens, or "Mark Twain", I gives utterance to a fear regarding the treaty of peace, that has arisen in. the breasts of thousands of men all over the eivilized world, and that time alone will prove or disprove: \ _ "I hope lam mistaken, yet in all sin ; ** cerity I believe that this peace is enti tled to rank as the most conspicuous dis aster in political history. During the , War. Russia was on the high road to ' emancipation from an insane and intol erable slavery. I was hoping there would be no peace until Russian liberty , was safe. I think that this was a holv war in the best and noblest sense of . that abused term, and that no war was ever charged with a higher mission. I think there can be no doubt that that mission is now defeated, and Russia's , chains riveted, this time to stay. I - think the czar will now withdraw" the small humanities that have been forced from him, and resume his medieval 1 barbarisms with a relieved spirit and an 1 immeasurable joy. I think Russian < liberty has had its last chance, and has ' lost it. 1 think nothing has been gain ed by the peace that is remotely com parable to what has been sacrificed by it. One more battle would have abolish • ed the waiting chains of billions upon billicns of unborn Russians, and I wish It could have been fought." ACX'f IJKNTS. Yesterday evening as M. A. Berkimer and Casper Sherman were coming to town on the lower Karns City road a wheel in their buggy broke, throwing both men to the ground. Mr. Berkimer got off with a badly stoved wrist, bnt Mr Sherman had his right arm broken. By a premature explosion of dyna mite at the quarry and crusher of the Plate Glass Co.. near Saxon Station, yesterday evening, six men, all foreign ers excepting the foreman, were hurt. Four of the injured men were brought to Butler on the 8:00 p.m. West Peun train and taken to the Hospital where one of the men died, and two more are in a serious condition. The foreman, said to be a Mr. Harbison, and the other two not being seriously hurt The dead mail was an Austrian. Anton Maier of near Gallery was so badly injured by the fall of a butcher a wagon into the creek, last Saturday night, that he was brought to the Hos pital here. Ex-Judge Harry White of Indiana county was thrown from his horse in the parade in Denver, Monday, and fell to the street but was not seriously hurt. Earl Welsh fell from a freight car at Allison Park, and was brought home. E. E.Lantz had a thumb almost cnt off at the Plate works, Saturday morning. Wm. Truby had a thumb smashed at the transfer, Saturday. Isaac Rosebangli. the victim of the boiler explosion, near Mars, died early last Saturday morning Lewis Caruty, a ' Bessie" section hand had a foot cut off by a north bound train near last Satur day morning and was so badly injured bv the blow given him by the locomo tive that he was placed in the caboose and brought to the Hospital. Isaac Meals of the Butler County National Bank met with a serious ac cident while riding in a "Bessie" car, near Houston Junction, last Friday. His elbow, which was protruding from the car window was struck by a piece of lumber protruding from a freight train, and badly broken. He was taken to the Mercer Hospital. Mr. Meals was one of the delegates of the Butler Post to the Denver Convention, and was on his way to Franklin to join the delegates from that town. A boy named Rohrcast, who was with a son of Luther Roth of Franklin twp, accidently shot himself in the leg with a flobert rifle while shooting frogs on the White farm, last Thursday. The Pittsburg Expo., which opened Wednesday of last week, was the scene of a fatal accident, Monday. One of the attractions of the Expo., this year, is a sham fire; and the rescue of a girl from an npper window by expert fire men on ladders; but on Monday the srirl leaned out of the window too far, the rope slipped a few inches and she fell head first to the stage floor, fractur ing her skull and dying almost instant ly. The man at the top of the ladder was caught by another fireman, as he was falling, or the tragedy would pro bably have been a double one. A Strange Story. George H. Thomas, a successful real estate man of Pittsburg, with an office in the city and a home at Lincoln Place is trying to find out who he is, and his story has some local interest. "Back in 1762 a Lutheran minister, the late Rev. A. C. Waters, who estab lished the soldiers' orphan school near Uniontown, was sent lrom Pittsburg to Memphis. Tenn., as a sanitary officer. There were thousands of refugees at Memphis at that time. The war had demoralized home connections, and this much is known —that the mother of the four children, of which Thomas was one, was dead. The father may have been killed in the war, or he may have lost track of his children and may even now be hunting them as earnestly as they doubtless are endeavoring to lo cate him. At any rate, one of the children —now know as George H. Thomas —was but little over three years old at the time he was found at Memphis by Mr. Wat ters. He and seven other children were brought north and placed in the orphan age at Zelienople, Pa. With him, he thinks, a younger sister, whom he has in his mind as Julia, was also brought north. This JiuL Thomaa believes, was placed in a school at Rochester, Pa. Since then he has lost track of her. He also has in his mind, from some scatter ed information, a brother named John Thomas, and a sister named Elizabeth. The latter two were older than Julia and himself. Prospect. The Franklin twp. schools began Monday, Sept. 4, with the following teachers- E. W. Stamm, Mile Run; Ralph Mackey, Hill; Howard McCand less. Hickory Rapids; Lettie Thompson, Ridge; Grace Fair, Mt. Chestnut; G. P. Weigle, Dick. Mrs. Daniel Shanor, who spent the summer visiting her brother, A 1 Heckert of Denver, Colo., has returned home much pleased with her visit. Bert Roxberry and wife prepared a surprise for Bert's mother, Mrs. J. C. Roxberry, Thursday evening, Aug. 31, the occasion being the 57th birthday of Mrs. Roxberry. A fine supper and a pleasant evening were in evidence. Blanche Forrester is at Kane. Pa., but will soon return home to teach school in Cranberry twp. Plummer Badger came home from Butler, Saturday, with a box of fine cockerels, and Harry will have more fine fowls to look after. Dr. Asa Heyl and wife of Evans City visited their parents, Martin Heyl and wife and James Forrester and wife, last week. The corn is very good, apples very scarce, potatoes rotting and not a large yield, buckwheat promising, and peaches plums and pears not very plentiful. Philip Gruver and aunt Margaret Heyl attended the birthday party at Sam Flinner's, Lancaster twp., Thurs day, Aug. 24, the occasion being Sam's 30th birthday. John Scott, with gang of painters, painted the school houses in Worth twp., last week. JOE COSITY. The Powell-Painter Reunion. The Fifth Annual Reunion of the Powell-Painter families was held at the home of Mrs. Elizabeth Powell, Carbon Black. R. F. D. 17-, on Thursday, Aug. 31, 1905. Those coming on trains were met at Marwood and Saxon Stations and after arriving at the Powell home the time was spent in general hand-shaking and sociality until 12 o'clock, noon, when all were invited to a bountifully spread dinner table laden with the good things of the season, at which 75 happy re unionists were served. After dinner there was musical en tertainment and following, a short business meeting was called by the president, Wm. Snyder, and the minutes of the previous reunion were read by Miss Anis Painter after which the mew officers and committee were appointed; Pres. S. M. Painter, Sec. Grace Smith, Committee of Conveyance. J. M. Painter, Francis Hazlett and Charles Hesselgesser. An invitation was then extended for the next reunion to meet at the home of Ellis Hesselgesser. on the last Thursdav of August, (25) 1906. A brief talk touching on the benefit and history of the reunions was given by Mr. Wm. Snyder. At 5 o'clock supper was served and afterwards the "good*byes" and ' good wishes" began being said as some of the number were starting for home, all well satisfied with having spent a very delightful and enjoyable day with rel atives and acquaintances, and with high expectations of another such day next year. S EC . ALL Europe is preparing to fight the cholera, and all large public meetings have been called off. Twenty-three deaths were reported in Hamburg, Tuesday.

Early on Aug. 30, 1900, the Dauben speck family began to assemble at the grove, but were driven by the rain to the Academy at North Hope. Here a feast was had and addresses by Rev. R. P. Daubenspeck, Rev. J. G. McElha ney, J. W Hutchison and W. C. Find ley. Esqs. A pleasant time was had, old friends meeting who had not seen each other for half a century. Elmer W. Daubenspeck offered the grove to those wishing to come in August, 1900. This closed the largest reunion of the family. The chief feature of the reunion of the 11th Reserves at Freeport, Tuesday, was an auto, ride over the county. The old officers were re-elected. John S. Campbell of W. Sunbury and Capt. J. P. Boggs of Evans City are on the Ex ecutive Committee. J. T. Kelly re sponded to Editor McKee's address of welcome. News About Washington. Recent examination of the records of Fairfax county, Virginia, show that George Washington owned 50,000 acres of land when 27 years old, and at the fall slaughtering in 1780 the Washing ton family killed 150 hogs for their use. The examination also brought out the fact that in 1787 the Father of his Coun try sowed 580 acres in grass. 400 acres in oats, 700 acres in wheat and 700 acres in other grains. He owned 140 horses, 112 cows, 500 sheep and had 250 negroes on the plantation. SECRETARY BONAPARTE has ordered the court marshal of the Captain of the Benn ington. PORTSMOUTH, N. H. was shocked three times, last Wednesday, either by that treaty or seismic conditions. Two hundred thousand Americans tonred Europe, this summer, and those not already home are getting out of the reach of the cholera as fast as possible. Ex-Senator Focht. of Union county, who knows a few things about practical politics, and whose blood readily flows to his brain and stimulates his idea s when he rises to his feet,_ is in favor of a new deal in Pennsylvania politics. In common with other good and patriotic citizens he believes that the Republican party is not to blame and should not suffer for the blind devotion of the Philadelphia leaders to their own in terests and their sublime contempt for the opinions and wishes of the people in general. There are plenty of first class men in this State who are devoted to the Republican party and its principles and who believe that its career of glori ous achievement is but rightly begun. What the situation demands is a leader who will be guided by sentiments of patriotism and public duty, and who will command the confidence and re spect of the people.—Ex. JhflES C. D.
