around houses was brought up and after

resolved that the sheriff be requested to
notify all persons to remove all garbage
and other refuse matter from their
premises, and in the event of their fail
ing to take proceedings, to enforce the

Edwards or MAXWELL

From Fridays Daily:
Our readers will remember that few
days ago We gave publication to the re-
port that Edwards, the man who last
winter, with Il partner, robbed two rail
road men in Billings; who was captured,
| tried and sentenced to fifteen years irA-
prisonm. Mt, and who escaped from his
guards while being conveyed to the PEN
! itentiary, was the notorious Lon Will
liams, who Will, his brother Ed, were
noted desperadoes in Wisconsin, and in
resisting arrest shot two deputy sherltfs,
the Coleman brothers. Ed. Was clptur-
ed and lynched, while Lon is still at
large, SO far as is known. The following
letter, which explains itself, was receiv-
ed ! day or two since.

Why the "Royal" is the Best.

The improved method by which 1t has
been made possible to produce pure cream
Of tartar, has had an important bearing
upon the manufacture Of baking powder.
BY the process heretofore & g.nsrslly en,.
ployed, it has been found impossible to
remove all impurities, more particularly
the tartrate Of lime, which remained to such
IN extent as to greatly impair the quality 0
the cream Of tartar, and 10 interfere sesious.
ly with the strength and wholeso n,sness Of
the baking powders into which It had on
tered.
BY the new process, which is owned by
the Royal Baking Powder company of New
York, and exclusively employed in its e1.
tensive tartar works, the imported crude
grape acid is 80 treated as to remove all
vestiee of tartrstc Of lime or other impur;-
ties. giving product before unknown-s
chemically pure cream of tartar.
BY the employment Of these superior
facilities. the Royal Baking Powder COM
pany has made the Royal Baking Powder,
as the chemists all certify, of the highest
possible degree of strength. absolutely
pure" and wholesome, and with all always
uniform lcavening power. 1t is icr these
reasons that the "Roya!" never fails to pro-
duce bread, biscuit, cakes, ETC., that are
light. sweet, digcstible and wholesome; the
eating Of which is never followed by in6i-
gestion, or any of those physical disconl-
forts attending upon the paytakins OF i'm,
properly prepared food. In rendering pog-
sible the production of baking powder
possession Of these qualifications. the
improved method of refining cream of tar
tar becomes matter of material import
ance to the culinary world.

from the terrible hurricane which near

A Sad Accident.

Mr. James T. BARLEY, oldest son of
Williamson BARLEY, Esq, of Penn
township. this county, met with fatal
accident nea: Brownsdale on Wednes-
day evening, 22d inst. He left his
flther's house on that evening with
hose and buggy, for the purpose Of
ter dag a singing at what is known
as the Nixon school house. Going to
the resi- lence of Mr. David Douthett,
near Brownsville, be was joined there,
about eight O'Clock in the evening, by
Miss Esther, a daughter of Mr..
Douthett. The two had proceeded but
a short distance in the buggy when the
horse suddenly frightened, ran away
and Mr. BARLEY was thrown out. The
young lady endeavored to check the
animal, but finding she would be un-
able to do so, by remarkable good luck
and courage managed to get out of the
buggy without receiving any serious
injury. On seeking her companion be
was found to be unconscious. The
alarm being given neighbors soon came
and carried him to the Office Of DR.. Nc
Clymonds, in Brownsville. An examin-
alton proved his neck to be dislocated.
Yet he lived for about five hours, dying
about one O'Clock in the night. During
these hours be talked, aud was OCCASION
ally upon his feet, walking about the
room. But his suffering was intense
and his speech incoherent.
The sudden and sad loss Of this
young man was a severe shock to all
who knew him. We knew him well
and deeply regret his sad fate. James
7. BARLEY was a young man Of much
more than ordinary promise. OF all
the young men Of our acquaintance in
this county we knew none whom we re-
garded as more promising. He was
intelligent and of most excellent char
acter. The unusually large number of
people who went to his funeral and
followed bis remains to the grave here
at Butler, attested their appreciation of
his worth That one so young, so
useful and so good should be so sudden
ly taken away from his friends is in
deed to be regretted But it is said the
good die early His parents and rela-
tives have the sympathies of all. His
age was % years, months and l3
days. An obituary notice by a friend
will be seen in the death list we pub
| lish this week.

The Old Grave Yard.

We understand a movement is pro-
posed to enclose the old grave yard in
this place with an iron fence Some
years ago the substantial stone walls
that surrounded this first burial place
of the dead were removed and sold for
building purposes, with the promise of
those doing SO that they would replace
the stone with an iron fence. But this
has never been done. What became
of the amount realized for the old stone
walls, or where all the stone went to,
we understand has never been made
public. AS there are descendants or
relatives of those whose bones still lay
in the old grounds this present move
ment is with the object of protecting
the same. The movement embraces
the idea also of laying out the ground
into walks, in the manner Of park, SO
that it may be place for pleasant re-
sort to all visiting it, instead of the
desolated condition now found to exist
