The Lambs Are 1Sheared !

The work of shearing the lambs in
grain, oil and stocks, having been COM
pleted, the shearing gamblers are al
lowing things to quiet down again.
It is now announced that the oil
panic is over that the stock panic Is
over; that the railway war is over ;
that the iron and steel establishments
have decided to go on in about the old
way, and the lambs have been given q
breathing spell for repairs, preparatory
to the next shearing.
When the lambs shall have recover
ed and gather enough wool to make
their shearing worth the effort again,
the boss gamblers will precipitate
another furry in stocks or another
furry in oil or another furry in rail-
ways or another furry in bread or
another furry in meat. or several first
class furries in combination, and they
will then shear the lambs again.
Every man and woman who now
buys stocks or oil or grain on margin,
simply shuffles along into the shearing
pen Of the boss gamblers. All specu-
letiye values are inflated or depressed
by the ruling gamblers Of the day at
their pleasure, and they initiate or de-
press prices just as it may best profit
them. They live only to shear the
lambs and the lambs live only to 30
sheared.-Phild. Times, Nou. 29.

Accident.

Mr.. Isaac Moore of Muddycreek
township, this county, met with a very
severe accident in Portersville on the
goth Nov. ult. He was in the village
and left the store of Mr.. Humphry,
at the south end of the same, for home
in a buggy, driving a rather spirit
cd young horse. At the north end of
the village and when about opposite
the Post Office, or Mr. Newton's, the
horse ran away and Mr.. Moore was
violently thrown from the buggy to
the ground, striking upon his face and
receiving severe cuts and bruises. Be-
ing an elderly man, now II years of
age, the shock and injuries were so
great that fears were entertained for
q while that be could not recover; but
we are glad to learn that he may sur
vive them. Mr. Moore is one of the
oldest citizens of the county, and q
man much respected by his neighbors
and he has their sympathy as well as
that of all who knew him.

Another Cremation.

On Saturday last, MI. w. IL. Devore,
undertaken Of Pittsburgh, visited
Washington, and made arrangements
with Messrs. Harding and LeMoyne,
for the cremation Of the body OF DIR. IL.
Ehrhart, who died in Allegheny city,
on the gath instant. The Doctor came
to this country shortly after the failure
of the Revolution of '48 in Germany,
and opened an Office for the practice OF
medicine in Allegheny City some time
in the winter of lS49. He gained
large reputation as Physician, and
no man stood higher for personal in
tegrity, purity of character and phi
lanthropic principles than DR.. Ehrhart.
He was in his 18th year when he
died.
Before DR.. LeMoyne put the crema-
tion theories into practice in this coun-
try DR. Ehrhart believed in an argued
in favor of that system of disposing OF
the dead bodies of human beings. He
afterwards became an enthusiastic ad-
vocate of the practice, and, as a con-
sistent man, maintained that o ply
sician should put into practice that
which he recommended to be fer the
public good. To show his sincerity in
the matter, he sometime ago entered
into an agreement with his wife in
which it was stipulated that whoever
died first, the surviving partner should
personally see that the remains OF the
deceased husband or wife should be
burned In DR.. LeMoyne's furnace.
This contract was further fortified by q
clause in DR.. Ehrhart's will, and it is
understood that his widow has indi-
Gated her desire to have her body treat
ed in a similar manner when she dies.
The fires were lighted in the crema-
tory on Sunday, and on Monday morn
ing his remains arrived by rail and
were at once taken to the building on
the hill and placed In the furnace.
This makes the fifteenth body cremat-
ed in the furnace built by the late DR..
LIE Moyne, as follows:

cember 9Th, 1876.

Quarreling over a Turkey.
READING, November %.

A distressing affair occurred to-day
between two farmers near the Mount
Penn furnaces, in Cumru township,
about four miles from here. John T.
Schwartz and A. NJ. Fulton are broth
er-in-law and occupy adjoining farms.
Heretofore the most amicable relations
have existed between the members OF
the two families. This morning the
turkeys on the two farms focked to-
gether. Fulton permitted Schwartz
to take seven away, which ne said
was one more than he was entitled to.
Schwartz returned to claim gobbler
which he said belonged to him, when,
it is alleged, Fulton procured his gun
and threatened to shoot Schwartz if he
would take away the turkey. Hot
words followed and during the quar-
rel Fulton, it is said, struck Schwartz
with the butt end of the gun on the
temple, telling him. The physician
says that the injury is a serious one
and Inflammation of the brain may set
in and terminate fatally.-Phatadet'

BIaine's View.

1.-THE defeat is not so signal as that
of 1874, and like that, can be made to
result in good to the party. The Dem
ocratic party suffered overwhelming
defeat in 1910, but carried the election
of 1874. The Republican party was
practically beaten in several of the
most important Northern States in
1862, but Abraham Lincoln carried all
except one or two in 1864. Victory
may be achieved in 1884 by presenting
as candidate for the Presidency a
man upon whom both factions can
unite, who has the confidence of the
country. To the accomplishment of
that result his influence as private
citizen will be exerted. He believes
that Republican success in 1884 is es-
sential to the welfare of the country"

Must Stand Aside.

The recent election shows the fol-
ly of trying to regain Republican as
cendancy under the Stalwart leaders in
Pennsylvania and New York, and
these leaders will be made to stand
aside. Give the Republican party a
chance to be true to itself; to be
liberal toward all honest differences of
opinion; to be free from all tyranny of
ring politicians; to be earnest in the
promotion of sound principles of gov
ernment, and to take its place 10 rep.
resenting the best thought and high
est aims of the people,-rermit
these things to be, and the Repu ublcan
party will speedily assert its unity and
its power.-DoylestoOn INTEL, (Stal-

The History Of Butler County

Messrs. Waterman, Watkins & Co.,
who have been employed for the past
year or more in gathering the materials
for a history of our county, have about
completed their labors. They had a
large force of men employed on the
book for over 13 months. Important
portions have been submitted to CON-
petent committees and approved. A
certificate as to the correctness of one
of our townships will be seen in
another place.
The manuscript has now all been sent
to Chicago for printing, and the book
will be ready in short time, notice OF
which will be given its patrons.
The gentlemen engaged on the
history of our county left last week for
Armstrong, Bedford, Somerset and
other counties of Western Pennsylva-
MIA, of which they intend getting up
histories. Mr.. Matthews, the general
historian of the company, is gentle
man we'll qualified for his task and
made many friends while in this place.
Mr.. Gilbert, the artist of the company.
is also highly commended for the ac-
curacy of his representations of resi-
dences, etc. On the whole we believe
the History of Butler county" will
give great satisfaction to the citizens OF
th,, county. To the descendants of the
earlier pioneers and settlers of the
county it will be book of special and
peculiar interest

Want Strtcter Marriage Laws.

W as1tt IRt4SeOt AZ A"A Ass0O ss '" -
The New Castle district conference
of ministers of the M. E. church was
held at Wilmington last week and
among other topics discussed the laity
of marriage laws of this State. On
this subject the conference adopted the
following resolutions
WHEREAS, The present marriage
laws of the State of Pennsylvania are
inefficient in preventing olandestine
marriages, and securing an accurate
record of marriages, and
WHEREAS, The ministry are liable
to become the victims of deception and
fraud in solemnizing matrimony, and OF
prosecution by malicious persons, there
fore,
Resolved, That we, the members Of
the New Castle district conference,
petition the Legislature of this State to
enact marriage laws similar to those OF
Ohio, or other laws that will accom-
plish the same end.
