A High School.

Butler needs a building for High
gchool-a building that will be credit
and AN ornament to the town, and be fully
equipped with all the paraphernalia neces-
sary for giving our young folks ss good an
education az they need have, and 1t should
have laboratory, library, auditorium etc.
The School Board Of Butler would be de
ligk.cd to build and equip il, but the popu-
lation Of the town and number of scholars
has increased 50 rapidly that all the means
at their disposal have been expended IN
providing the necessary facilities Tor the
pub,ic schools. The limit of Indebtedness
allowed By law for new buildings has been
reached, aud though more rooms and bet
ter facilities are needed they find them
selves unable to provide them.
At the meeting Of the Board last Thurs
day evening the matter was discussed, and
Q committee was appointed to ascertain
the sentiment of our citizens in this matter
and see whether few Of our more liberal
and enterprising men and women OF means
would be willing to assist the Board in
providing the town with suitable High
School bnilding-
Blessed will be the name or names OF
such persons-not in scripture, but in the
hearts Of the people Of Butler-who will
materially assist in the erection of such a
building, and their names will be cut deep
in the stones thereof, and applied to the
different departments of the institution.
Therefore, oh men and women Of means,
be noe backward in coming forward

Health and M Money.

The new Board of Health met with the
Council, Tuesday evening and reported
that they had met and organized by elect
ing David Cupps. President, and Edward
Colbert, Secretary, but would take no fur
ther action until they were informed of the
extent of the support they could expect
from the Council. Mr.. Riddle was their
spokesman and he referred to the pro-
visions of the act of 1851, and thought
there was..no authority in the hands OF the
Board of Health of borough chartered
previous to the passage Of that act, except
ing what came through the Town Council. =.
He said the Board was ready to assume
any duties defined to them by the Council,
provided the Council would sustain them
by carrying out their recommendations.
Mr.. Perrine thought the Council would
be unanimous in sustaining any recomend-
ations made by the Board for improving
the sanitary condition to the town.
Mr. Forquer, who presided, endorsed Mr..
Perrine's remarks and thought the Council
would promptly abate all nuisances report
ed by the Board
Mr.. McJunkin presented the petition of
the property owners of E. Wayne st. ask
ing for paving, and the matter was referred
to the Street Committee.
A warrant for $4,000 was ordered
drawn in favor Of John Osborne on Main
St. paving; also and to Long & Doyle
for 81, 600 on E. Jefferson st. paving; also
one to E. f. Hughes for 80, 207.56 in full Of
balance on 15-inch sewer.
Mr. Vogel of the Fire Com. reported in
favor of furnishing the Campbell and Good
Will Co.'S with go feet more Of hose, also
in favor OF fire bells at W. P. depot and
west end of Jefferson St. and for the Gas
Com. reported that some twenty new
street lights were needed, and this report
brought up the condition of the general
fund of the borough. The Council can
raise money up to certain limit, for sewer
ing and paving by the sale of bonds, but
the general expenses must he kept within
the tax collected for general purposes; and
it was stated that the treasury is now
empty, with quite a number oil unpaid
warrants in circulation.
The Council has no authority 10 incur
debt for general purposes, and so the
sti eet lamp and the new hose matters
were held over and an effort was made to
have the borough policemen discharged,
and some bills were held over till next
meeting.
The borough expense has been running
from $500 to $1,000 month during the
past summer, and this will be curtailed as
much as possible.
A petition for board walk on Z. Clay
St. along the property of the English
Lutheran Church was referred to the Side
walk Committee; and a special committee
was given the power to arrange with the
widow Clifford and Mr.. McClain of the
South Side for the raising of their build
ings.

The New Opera House.

At the meeting of the Stockholders OF
the Armory building, last Thursday night.
a majority voted in favor Of increasing the
capital stock from $4,000 to $50, 900 for
the purpose of remodeling the lower floor
and building an addition for an Opera
House. The lower floor will be lowered,
a gallery built, seats put in etc.
The addition will be fifty feet long
(Which will run the building from street to
alley) and will be forty feet high. 1t will
hold the stage and scenery, and the scenery
will be raised aud lowered instead Of being
pushed to one side.
Architect Schenck has not yet perfected
the plans for the improvement, but our
people can rely upon the House being a
credit to the town.
