.. THE LAST ACT, — | Of the Great Tragedy to End at_ the Gallows. | Charles J. Guiteau Sentenced to Hang | June 30, 1882. Frightful Loos of Life in a coal Mine | in Virginia, | Washington, February 4.—After | Judge Cox had concluded his rea- | sons for overruling Scoville’s motion | for a new trial, Guiteau, who had | been permitted to resume his seat at | the counsel table, called out: ‘If your honor pleases, I desire to ask if | there is any motion that I_ ought to make to reserve my rights ?’’ Scoville tried to prevent his speak- ing, but he retorted: ‘*Well, I don’t | want any advantags taken of me. Tj want to know how much time I shall | have to prepare my appeal to the court in banc?’” HE WON’T KEEP QUIET. Scoville—Please keep quiet. have not reached that yet. Guiteau—(with much excitement) —I won’t keep quiet. I am here and propose to do my talking. Judge Cox then informed Scoville ot the rules of practice applicable to the filing of his exceptions, and after this matter had been arranged, Col. Corkhill renewed his motion, saying, “It 1s now my duty to ask forthe SENTENCE OF THE COURT.”” Judge Cox, to the prisoner— “Stand up. Have you anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon you?” Guiteau (still sitting)—‘‘I ask your honor to postpone the sentence as long as possible.’” Judge Cox—‘‘Stand up. Have you anything to say why sentence should | not be pronounced upon you?” The prisoner then arose, pale, but with lips compressed, and a despe- rate determination stamped upon his features. In low and deliberate tones he began, but soon his manner became WILD AND VIOLENT, We and pounding upon the table he de- livered himselt of the following har. angue: ‘I am_ not guilty of the charge set forth in the indictment. It was God’s act, not mine, and God : will take care of it and not let the} American people forget it. He will take care of it and every officer of | this government from the executive | down to that of marshal, every man | on that jury and every member of | this bench will pay for it and the } American nation will | ROLL IN BLOOD it my body goes into the ground and Iam hung. The Jews put the de- spised Gallilean into the grave. For the time they triumphed, but forty years afterwards, the Almighty got eyen with them. I am not afraid of death. Lam here as God’s man; kill me to-morrow if you want to. I am God’s man, and I have been from the start.’” THE SENTENCE. After this harangue, Judge Cox, ma brief but impressive manner, sentenced Guiteau to be hanged in the jail at Washington on the 3oth day of June next. Judge Cox has sentenced Guiteau to be hanged in the jail at Washing- ington on the 3oth of June next. Good bye Yorick. A Word To Mothers.

Epiror Times: <A very enthusi- astic and interesting railroad mee ing was held by the citizens of this township Saturday vey already made by way of Fay- etteville, this county, by which survey is to be made through the centre of our township, thereby making the route from 3 to 5 miles shorter, more practical and of better grade. Mr. G. C. the meeting to order, and on mo- tion Mr. L. B. Murray was chosen chairman and Frank Welsh secretary. After organizing a letter from Hon. B. J. Waters was read, and an ear- | nest and influential appeal was made in behalf of the proposition by Mr. G. C. Wolfe. which was in full ac- cord with the feelings of our peo- ple. Mr. L. B. Murray, W. H. Hammond and_ other prominent gentlemen made stirring and feeling speeches, which had the effect of enthusing our citizens to more ear- | nest efforts to secure the Ft. Scott St. Louis & Chicago railroad. On motion by Mr. Wolfe it was carried, | that a committee of five gantlemen | be appointed to obtain the necessary means by subscription to secure the proposed survey, and the money to be raised by Saturday, Feb. 4th. W. H Hammond were the commit- tee appointed. After further dis- cussion the following gentlemen spontaneously agreed to take upon themselves the responsibility of se- curing the engineers services and paying them tor the survey: G.C. Woife, G. W. Snyder, L. B. Mur- ray, W. H. Hammond, Isaiah Odell, W. C. Hya't, R. F. Renick, Neally Daggett ana Frank Welsh. In con- clusion, will say that our coal com- pany are negotiating with parties to lands and will commence artesian boring ina few days. We have already discovered coalin valuable quantities, and the end is not yet reached. Our meeting adjourned to meet Saturday Fed. 4 L. B.

The whole number of pupils en- , rolled in the public schools in Butler during the month ending February 3rd, 1882, was 446. The average daily attendance was 350, being 45 more than the average attendance for the month preceding. The pupils are well graded and all the classes are moving steadily and rapidly for- ward in the acquisition of knowledge. Our people have cause to telicitate themselves on their good tortune in securing the services of Prof. Starr as Superintendent, and his able and zealous assistants. This report cheering to the parents of Butler who have children in our public schools, is and we do hope that they will in the | future give the important matter of their children’s education little more thought than they have in the past. Prof. Starr and his assistants are working like Trojans to prepare your children to fight life’s battles, and it is your duty to aid, assist and encourage them by your presence at public exercises and in every other way you can. a an. 18th, forthe | purpose of considering a proposition i made by Hon.
