It is a long time since the world has had an opportunity of watching the spectacle of a young monarch wooing a young prineef*. and the interest in the courtship by King Alfonso of 'he Princess Ena of Battenberg is therefore correspondingly increased. Every day now the king leaves his own royal do minions and hies himself over the French frontier to call upon the lady of his love. Apparently he is enjoying his conrting just as much as though he was an nntitled swain and she a lowly maiden.—Ex. How to Speak German. Strange, but nevertheless true, you or anyone else can learn to speak, read or write the German language absolutely free. For 70 days, in every daily issue of The Pittsburg Dispatch, a lesson in German will be printed so simple that a child with ordi nary education can master the language. Parents who have children not old enough now to study them should cut out the lessons each day and jave them. If you save the lessons rfll your children can learn German. Since the first of last July thousands have learned the Spanish and Italian languages from the simple lessons published in The Dispatch. More people, however, who would have liked to have learned these languages were prevented from doing so by not knowing about them. We hope every one in this vicinity may read this item, and take advantage of this opportunity. The first lesson will be printed Monday, February 5. Tell yonr news agent to leave you the daily Dispatch regularly, and get the benefit of these lessons only 10 cents by the week. □ —Basket ball in the Y. M C. A , Fri day evening, Butler H.

Pa The Liquor Gases. __ ; The arrest of Max Klein's agent in Butler, last week, on a charge of selling liquor without license, was something of a surprise. The man did not sell li quor -he took orders for delivery by express, as a dozen others have been j doing in Butler —and the Supreme Court has explicitly ruled that in such case the sale is made at the house where i the liquor is tabbed and delivered to [ the express company. However the 1 agent was held for Court, by the Jus tice of the Peace, and there will, proba bly, have to be another ruling in the matter. Samuel Blank, alleged agent in Bnt r ler for the Kittanning Brewery, had a i hearing before E«q. Keck, last evening, j on the charge of selling liquor without license, and was discharged. Sam denied the agency, as did also the brewery men. The brewery people dis tributed blanks amoDg the foreigners here, who would fill them out and sen-1 them with a postoffice money order to Kittanning, where the liquor would be shipped to Butler in care of Sam Blank, who would deliver it, and who would receive 25 cents from the Brewery Co. for each empty keg cr case he would return. District Attorney Walker is said to be securing evidence against all the agents in Butler of the Pittsburg and other liquor dealers; the point taken being that when the agent agrees to deliver the liquor at a certain point within the county at a certain time he violates the law. This looks like split ting hairs on the question; and the proper solution is the granting of about a dozen wholesale licenses in Lyndora Boozing seem 9 the sole pleasure of these foreigners, and let them swim in it if they want to.
