Imitation Baking Powders.

To THE PUBLIC:
The public is cautioned against the practice
of many grocers who sell what they claim TO be
Roval Bak ing Powder. loose or in bulk, with
out label or trade mark. All such powders are
base limitations Analyses of hundreds of sam
Piles of baking powders sold in bulk 10 parties
asking for Royal have shown them to be large
ly addlterated, mostly with alum, dangerous
for use in food, and comparatively yalueless
for leavening purposes.
The public is too we'll aware of the injurious
effect Of alum upon the system, to need fur
ther caution against the use of any baking
powders known to be made from this drug; but
the dealers assurance, ''Oh, it's just as good as
Royal" or ''its the genuine Royal, only we
buy it by the barrel 10 save expense of can,
ETC.. is apt to mislead the unsuspectins con-
sumers into buying an article which they
would not knowingly use in their food under
any consideration. The only safety from such
practices is in buying baking powder only in
the original package, of a well known brand,
and thoroughly established reputation.
The Royal Baking Powder is sold only in
cans, securely closed with the Conpany's trade
mark label, and the weight of package stamp
ed on each cover 1t is never sold in bulk, by
the barrel, or loose by weight or measure, and
all such offered to the public under any pre-
tense. are limitations.
If the consumers will bear these facts In
mind, and also see that the packages purchas-
ed are properly labeled, and the label unbroken,
they will be always sure of using baking
powner perfectly pure and wholesome, and of
the highest test strength in the market.

An Indispensable Instrument.

The vaue of an article is almost always in
dcated by its price, and for years the people
were content to pay $50 for genuine Liver
more Stylographic Pen, and the same pens are
vet doing good service. The success of these
pens led unscrupulous persons to get up infe-
rior limitations, which they offer at such low
prices that persons not understanding the diff
ference, were induced t, buy them. The Liy
ermore Company therefore, cut down the price
of their short plain Pens to $780, and short
gold mounted to 81 80 each, to give everybody
a chance to have the best article of the kind
You can buy them for that money by remit
ting the amount to LOUIS L. DUNLAP, Mana
ger Stylographic Pen Co., 800 Washington
Street, Boston; the pen together with a pack
age of superior ink will be sent by return
mail. and the money will be at once refunded
if they do not prove to be perfect and satisfac
tory in every respect. There is nothing more
appropriate than Stylograph, as gift to
lady or gentleman. The Siylographic Pen
CO., who manufacture the Livermore Pen, is
the largest concern of the kind in the world,
with branches at New York, Chicago, and
London. Eng. The Livermore Stylographic
Pen is a ppncil which writes ink, never needs
sharpening and never wears out, and has been
adopted by over 100000 knights Of the quill in
this country and abroad. Any one who has
learned to use a Livermore Pen will not be
persuaded to do without it, and any one who
has not learned to use one should get one at

An Attempt to Rob.

On the night of the 18th inst, an attempt was
made to enter the house of Mr.. John Burkhart,
about three miles south of Butler. The would
be. burglars had by some means got to the top
of the portico in front of Mr.. Burkharfs resi-
dence, and from there were working to force
open or raise window leading to a room in
the upper story in which they supposed were
valuables. In their effort they happened to
break large pane of glass. The noise arors
ed the inmates of the house and the scamps
finding themselves heard fled speedily. They
were not seen, but suspicion rests on certain
persons. They came and went with buggy al d
horse. 1t was well for them Mr.. Burkhart did
not get sight of them, as they probably would
have got hurt had he met them.
The house of William Caldwell, near by,
was entered at its kitchen part on the same
night, but the noise awakened the inmates be-
fore anything was stolen. 1t will be we'll TO
keep look out for such gentlemen.

requiring every institution applying
for State aid to make a report under
oath of its expenditures for lSSl-s2.
says that it is matter of common re-
port that institutions In this State re-
ceive money for their support, and the
officers never give an account of their
stewardship. He has grown ashamed
of voting away public money without
knowing what is done with it. and pro-
poses to look deeper into the matter of
State aid Hundreds of thousands of
dollars are voted away and PLACED in
the hands of men who minister at char
liable and benevolent institutions, and
if they keep their accounts correctly it
will take but few days to furnish
the information called for in the reso-
luton.

APPALLING CALAMITY.
A Panic Occurs in a New York
School House.

New YORK, Feb 20.-An outbreak
of fire under the stairs on the second
floor of the school house attached to
the Roman Catholic church of the Most
Holy Redeemer this afternoon, was the
cause of an appalling accident, no less
than IA children losing their lives
Over 700 scholars, mostly children of
the poorer classes living in that vicini-
ty, from to ii years of age. attended
the school and were in in their class
rooms when the alarm was raised,
which resulted in fearful panic.
FEARFUL PANIC.
The removal of the children on the
fourth floor began quietly and was pro-
crossing rapidly, when a Sister of
Charity, who was in charge of a class
of girls, tainted from excitement. I'M
mediately the class was thrown into
confusion and rush was made for the
hallway. On the stairs, which were
already crowded, panic ensued and a
deadly crush took place. While the
children were piling one on the other
the railing of the stairs broke, and the
mass Of struggling children were pre-
cipitated to the floor below.
A PILE OF MANGLED FORMS.
The police and the firemen rushed in
and found them lying four or five deep.
Six were taken out dead from the bot
tenn of the heap. Eight more died i'm
mediately after, making a total of
fourteen. A large number of others
were carried to the surrounding tene-
ments, and were reported to be dying.
The excitement, when the news of the
catastrophe spread through the densely
peopled neighborhood, was fearful, and
throngs of excited people blocked the
streets surrounding the school Many
children were lost in The excitement,
and are reported missing.

P. & w. Freight Arrangements.

Traffic arrangements were signed Friday in
Pittsburgh giving the Pittsburgh d Western
railroad the same connections both east and
west rs those of the Lake Erie. The same
lake ports, sea board cities river towns and
trade centres will be reached are now reach
ed by the Pennsylvania Compsny's lines.
Pittsburgh will become competing point
and Allegheny will assume some Importance
as a railroad centre This condition of affairs
was brought about by signing agreements with
the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern road.
The connections will be made at New Castle
Junction and at New Castle with the Pittsburgh
& Lake Erie road to Youngstown. From there
goods billed in Pittsburgh will be delivered at
all local points on the New York, Pennsylva-
mia e. Ohio as far as Cleveland. They also
connect with the Lake Shore at Youngstown,
and over it will reach all local points as far as
Ashtabula.
DIRECT TO NEW YORK AND CHICAGO.
Another connection is also formed in this
city with the old Oil City & Chicago, now
known as the Buffalo, New York Philadel-
phia railroad This on-ection gives tie
Pittsburgh u Western access to the business at
all points reached by the Lake Shore and by
the New York, Pittsburg and Ohio. Mer-
chants can bill goods by the new arrangement
direct to New York or Chicago. West of
Chicago goods will be rebilled at present, but
the com mpany expects to eventually be able to
bill freight direct as fal west as San Francisco.

We had expected to have no occasion

seeing a communication from Congress

copied here, we have only to add now
to what has already been brought to

therein is in dispute, and that the only
fair and just way to ascertain aohere
The majority Of the Republicans Of this
town are on the question, or the major
ity Of those getting their mails at this
Office, would be by popular expression
or vote. This request has been made
in various forms and at different times.
The friends OF Mrs. Black ask nothing
more and will abide cheerfully by the
result. But they will be satisfied
with nothing less 1t is, therefore, az
useless as II il unfair TO assume az

hangs in the shape it does We confess
we do not understand.
