LOWRY-At his heme in Butler, J une, "a.
1895, Col. Alexander Lowry, in his sd
year.
The death of Col. Lowry, has removed
from our midst one of the oldest and most
highly respected citizens of the place.
For over forty years he has been closely
identified with the business interests of
Butler and be has left behind him an ex-
emplary record of business integrity.
During most of this period he was con-
nected with one Of the most popular hotels
in Western Pennsylvania Thus the circle
of his acquaintance was widely extended,
and wherever known he had warmly at
tached friends. With a quiet undemon-
strative nature, he combined genial,
cordial, winning manner, that most favor
ably impressed those who knew him best.
He aimed to hold an ardent and sensi-
tive temperament, under wise control.
Energetic and untiring, prudent and sa-
gacious in business pursuits, he became
successful business man. He was an ac-
tive enterprising citizen, whose influence
was always exerted in favor of public i'm
provements. His judgement in business
matters was safe and reliable, and was
often consulted. His wonderful vitality
could not always be chained down to busi-
ness pursuits. but at four score he retain
ed all the zest of enjoyment of youth,
in the pleasures of the road, the field or
the chase; and when the hand of disease
bore down heavily upon him, the same
vitality struggled bravely for the mastery
to the last.
Col. Lowry was member of the Pres
byterian church, faithful in attendance on
its services and liberal in its support. He
lived to good old age and is gathered to
his Fathers, and his bereaved family Lave
the sympathy OF the whole community.
He was born in Blair Co., Feb. Is, 1914.
and moved to this county in 1850.

NEIaHBoRHooD NOTES.

Official information has been received at
Pittsburg of the death OF Frank G. Lena
who left the city on his bicycle, May 10
1892 for q trip around the world. He was
murdered by Kurds near Deger about so
miles East of Erzeroum in Syria.
The barn-burning case tried in Kit
tanning last week fell through. The Press
says: "The interest in this case had been
added to owing to the fact that James
Stitt, one of the parties accused OF burn
ing the barn, had hung himself the week
before, and many who believed him inno-
cent, after this action, Joined IN with
popular prejudice and were inclined to
believe him guilty. A Mrs. Stitt, cousin
of his by marriage, also dropped dead
when Constable McCallister went to sub
poena her to sppear at March court.
Thus the greatest interest was taken IN
the case and we might sag that it went to
trial with the prejudice of the community
against the defendants, we should say
defendant, as James Stitt being dead,
Thos. 0linger was the only defendant IN
the case. After hearing a host of wit
nesses the evidence produced was of such
| a weak nature that when Judge Rayburn
stated he would instruct the jury not to
consider Neale's confession the counsel
for the prosecution agreed to let the jury
returned verdict of not guilty and the
county pay the costs. This was agreed TO
by the defense after prosecution agreed to
drop its suit for damages. Neale, the
self confessed criminal, who accused
Stitt and Olinger of burning the barn to-
gether with himself, had told SO many
different and conflicting stories that his
evidence could not be taken. While
Olinger has been acquitted the mystery
has not been solved.
At the Warren centennial celebration,
July and 4, village of 200 Cornplanter
indians (the tribe which "6shed, MT and
bled" in that section before the whites
came upon the scene) will be on hand
and partisipate in the parade, etc.
Standing on their heads, in large, rough
boxes, packed behind immense tiers of
canned champion green peas and appri-
cots, in the darkest and most uninviting
section of the fifth floor of the Union
Storage companies warehouse, on Liberty
St. in Pittsburg, are two Egyptian mum
mies, sent by Andrew Carnegie, from the
land of the Nile, for the proposed musium
in the Carnegie library at Schenley park.
They are supposed to be the remains OF q
mighty king and queen who fourished
centuries ago, but no human eye has yet
penetrated wrappings that enshroud them.
A terrible accident was sverted lately
at Wilkesbarra, this State, By the presence
of mind of an operator in the employ OF
the Central railroad of New Jersey. A
heavily loaded car broke loose from Its
fastenings and dashed down the mountain
side at the rate of mile minute. A
passenger train was about due, and the
operator realizing that collision was
ineventable, ordered out switch engine
to be run out to meet the runaway car.
The car was stopped, but tie engine was
completely demolished.

The Nations Birthday.

It was on July 2 that the Continental
Congress adopted the resolution offered by
Lee, OF Virginia, to the effect
.aThat these United colonies are, and,
of right. sueht to be free and lndepend-
ant States; that are sbsolyed from all
Allegiance to the British crown, and that
ali political connection between them ana
the State of Great Britain is and sugnt 10
be totally dissolved"
On July the Declaration was adopted
and from that time forth the United States
were independent of King George and all
his heirs and assigns forever. We washed
our hands of him, and it was pretty bard
lob, too, for George was not the kind OF
man to yield gracefully. He thought We
could not do without him, but we have
managed to worry along, and now rank
among the great nations of the earth. The
American eagle has right to scream. The
development of this country has been no
small thing. 1t was not done in corner.
From a mere handful of people stretched
along the Atlantic coast, only 3,929,2l4
in 179O, We have grown to nation OF Co.
100000.
Our quarrel with England, as the wits
of the day had it, was as follows:
Rudely forced to drink tea, Massachusetts
in anger.
Spills the tea on John Bull; John falls on
to bang her.
Massachusetts,, enrsged calls her neigh
Dor to her aid,
And gave Master John severe bastl-
made.
Now good men of the law, pray who is in
fault,
The one who began or resents the assaultf
Every child to-day knows who was IN
fault, and as the national celebration be-
comes more and more, as the years roll
on, the great Summer festival, even IN
their lightest amusements, child and sage,
young and old, exemplify the freedom
under which they live, secured bY the
blood of the fathers. The dark days are
no more, and the days of lightness are our
own heritage. The thirteen States have
increased to fourty four, and the American
has cause to glory in the Stars and Stripes
and what it represents. AS Washington
said in his Farewell Address: "Citizens
by birth or choice of q com mon country,
that country has right to concentrate
your affections. The name AMERICAN,
which belongs to you in your national
capacity, must always exalt the just pride
of ofpatriotism more than any appellation de-
rived from local discrimination s."

Why Independence Day is Celebrated on
July Fourth.

Did you ever here how it happened we
celebrate July fourth rather than some
later dsyf For days the members of Con-
gress had differed over the terms of the
Declaration. As the hot summer weeks
progressed, windows were opened, much
to the delight of the mosquitoes and flies
of neighboring stable. The stockinged
calves of congressional legs were assailed
daily by the diminutive combatants, until
at last the parsisfency of tho must stub
burn member was worn out on the fourth
day of July. Now that the struggle was
over the members became hilarious in
their good nature. John Hancock dashed
down his great signature in sach shape
"that George the Third might read it
without his spectacles." "Now we must
hang together" it was remarked. "Yes," "
said Franklin, "or we shall hang separate

BOlES ON SILVER.

nor Boies opened the Democratic state
campaign here. He reiterated his
views on silver, saying in part:
II do not fear to predict that the Re-
publican party will never remonetize
silver. It alone is responsible for the
great wrong that struck it down. It
needs no Moses to lead the Democratic
party in Iowa to victory on this subject
If it will inscribe upon its banners an
an unequivocal demand for restora-
ton of silver to the place assigned it by
the constitution Of our country, and
honestly and conscientiously stand by
its own declaration, it's success is as
sured. If it fails to do this, it will re-
quire a dispensation Of Providence to
preserve the present status Of it's organi-
zation in this and many other states.''
