BUTLER CoUNTY.-It is only a few
years since the people of several counties
OF this State turned up their noses and
sneeringly spoke of the soap mines aud
buck wheat crops of Butler county.
But now, the tune is turned. Her rich
deposits of oil, now developed, enable
her to control the market for that ar
ticle, throughout the world Railroads
are being extended to every nook and
corner of the county so as to reach and
devolope her oil, coal and limestone de-
posits. Telegraph lines follow the rail-
roads, and hence her people have tele-
garphlc communication with business
men all over the world. There are now
twelve banking establishments in the
county all doing fourishing business
money plenty at low rates, and every
thing prospering. The coal fields of
that county are immense. So Butler
county is now amongst the wealthiest
counties in the State. A few years ago
the principal business of her citizens was
threshing buckwheat with two sticks.
NEST OF RATTLEsNAKEs.- While
out on the mountain, northwest of this
place, couple of weeks since, Mr.. Jno.
Lytle very auexpctedly came upon an
enormous nest of rattlesnakes, as be was
crossing the draft between the old
Luthersburg road and the Pen6eld road
short distance above the forks. He
says there was pile of them about as
large around as a tub, coiled tightly to-
gether, with their heads sticking over the
top Of the pile. There are few men who
have knocked around over the noun
tains more than Mr.. Lytle, aud he says
the worst fright he ever got, was when
he saw those snakes. 1t might be worth
while to fit out an expedition for secur-
ing them, as we see the following going
the rounds of the papers:
"Rattlesnake tallow sells for Sl4 an
ounce, 1924 pound or $44, 800 bar
rel"
1t would, in all probability, be difficult
to find leader for the expedition

Ben. BCTLER's STOLEN DooH-PLATE.-
PHILADELPHIA EulietEn. lin his speech at
Wakefield, Mass, Il night or two ago, Gene
r,l Butler read to the audience the offer OF
$4,000 reward for his head made during the
war by Mr.. Richard Yeat0n, and then re-
marked : " All that | know further Of this
matter is that I have his door-plate at my
house now" We are afforded here glimpse
of a malignant and diabolcal cagcrneSs for
cruel revenge, of which we had not suspected
General Butler. There is something abso-
lutcIy appalling in the picture thus revealed.
\ s0uthcrncr, in Il moment OF passion, puts
a price upon Buffers life aud cndeayors
to secure his assassination. Butler, III
stead Of treating his enemy with contempt,
becomes infuriated and yielding to al over
powering desire TO rctaliatc upon the man
who wants his hearts blood, lie lays decp
and Dire !dlul plot, which results III the cap
tucc of Icaton's dCor-p!ate. 1t Is likely that
mere consideration OF tie iiendlsh barbarlty
OF this deed would suffice to curdie the
blood il il were not for the lact that the
trophy rcmind> one irresi>tihiy OF Mrs.
Tcod,cs and her infatuation for the door
plate which crst belonged to "Thomp>on
Witha p We will meyer DC able to decide
positively what amount Of courage Butler
Ql>DlSCu III lHus SlNtHl ms Ills NCbSEabSc
until we ascertain the method by which he
secured the doorplate Of Yeaton. He may
have dashed boldly up on Ieaton's front
steps under calling fire Of musketry, and
wrenched off the door-pate with crowbar
while the sulphurous flame belched forth
from keyhole and window. and while the dun
war clouds rolled in awful volumes around
his ten-thouSand-doiar head; or he may
Stnulv have bid il i'm Mt auction 10 thc dis
appointment OF some real Mrs. Toodles who
wanted the doOr-plate 50 that il she had Il
daughter and that daughter should marry
man named Ycaton it would be handy 10
have about the house. We reject with Scorn
the supposition that Butler obtained Yea
tons doo--p!ate by any surreptilious means.
He has been accused Of stealing southern
spoons, and we have always regarded the
charge as unworthy Of consideration. 1t is
therefore impossible lor us to believe that
the d0or-plate is the result OF a predatory
nocturnal PROV! around the house of Yea
ton.
