Agold pen is a handsome and appropriate present. The best can be had at Weaver's. Frank Latollett, that live and en- ergetic young statesman of Summit township, tavored us Monday. Make yourselt a sensible Christ- mas present. You can find it at Max Weiner’s. Sam’l Levy & Co. are decorating the front of their immense business hovse with flaming bulletin boards announcing their holiday goods. The Record has no scruples about lying, hence it is as hard to pin it down with tacts as to put your finger on an Irishman’s flee. Weaver has got his new broom out again, look out for bargains. Aaron Bell, collector of Mt. Pleas ant township, yives you fair warning to escape the penalty you must pay your taxes this month. _ Our young friend Tnos P. Craw- tord, ot West Point township, was mthe city Saturday and gave usa pleasant call. The Butler Times, bright and sparkling with the latest of news, be- gins volume nine with a good pat tonage, as it well deserves. Long may she wave tor the grand old demecratic party.—Clinton Eye. How would one of those Domestic Sewing Machines at Weaver’s do for a Christmas or New Year’s gitt? The Record and the cabbage sheet in the opera house combine for once, we presume tor mutual protection, ) in asserting that the Timzs told an untruth. We defy either or both to prove their assertion or be branded as falsifiers and slanderers. Sheritt Glazebrook informed us that he lost a very fine mare one day last week from lung fever. It was one of a match span that Mr. G. had sold, but the mare appearing sick he kept her for a few days be fore delivering. 5 If it’s queensware or glassware you want, Jas. Brough has a full supply and at bottom prices. John Alspaugh died at his father’s residence on Thursday morning and was buiied Friday. Johnny had been sick for some time with con- sumption and his death was not a matter of surprise to any ot his friends. If George Smith can prove the Statements made in last week’s Tugs to be false, as he so flippantly asserts through the Republican, why didn’t he do it? The tacts are, the communication stated facts and Mr. Smith knows ‘it. The records are too plain on that subject. We present our readers with the President's message in full to-day, So that each may judge of its excel- lence. It 1s a lengthy document and replete with splendid ideas and ex- cellent suggestions to congress, Read Nt carefully. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Yearwood will greatly sympathize With them in the loss of their little daughter Inez, which occurred Fri- {i 3 day night ot membranus croup. She j Was just tour years and 10 months : old, and was a sweet‘and charming — Dame Rumor has it thatJay Gould 1s liable to get Fuller’a a tick the last of this week. ’Tis a consuma- tion devoutly to be wished, and the Times extends congratulations in advance. The live and wide-awake firm ot M S. Cowles & Co., at Rich Hill, have taken advantage of the large circulation ot the Times to announce to the people the great advantages they are offering in their immense stock of general merchandise and also their line of specialties tor the holidays See advertisement in an- other column. Four hundred ot choice Christmas candies on sale at Jas. Brough’s. Harry T. Osburn, formerly ot Butler, but now of Marshfield, was in the city the tore part of the week on business. He gave the Times a substantial call. He is in the abstract business and owns the principle ab- stract books of the county, and is consequently making some money He says he was strongly petitioned to run tor probate iudge at the last election. Harry is a good boy and we wish him success. Don’t fail to see the angel in ‘'Mistle-bow-toe’’ at the opera house on the 23d, and don’t forget the date. The meetings at the M. E. church south closed Sunday might, but will be resumed in the early spring,when the Rev. Sam Small is expected. Rev. Noland informs us that he has been corresponding with Rev. Small and has his promise to be with him it no unforseen providence does not intervene to prevent. We all know Sam Small by reputation and if there 1s not a shaking up of the dry bones in the church at Butlew when he comes, then we miss our guess. Jas. Brough is the sweetest grocery man in town. He has seven differ— ent kinds ot syrups and molasses, ranging in price from 25 cts. to 90 cents per gallon One day last week, Joe Herold, the old man who cut Joe Smith re- cently, while i Butler purchased a half pound of powder and, going home intoxicated, threw the powder in the coal scuttle. Huis daughter, Miss Josie, shortly after went to replenish the fire and threw the powder with the coal in the stove. Almost instantly there was a terrible explosion, which burst the stove all to pieces and threw the young lady across the room. She was badly burned about the face and hands and considerably shaken up, but was not hurt seriously. It was a new stove, having only been used a short time. The handsomest, cheapest and largest stock of hanging lamps ever on exhibition in Butler can be seen at the store of Jas. Brough. Don’t tailto see them. As they are so pretty and cheap you will be sure to buy one tor a Christmas present. The friends of Mr. Burch did come to Judge Gantt to employ him in the contest case, the Record to the contrary notwithstanding. But then there wasno harm thought of it by democrats, nor would there have been had the Judge seen fit to accept the case. Nou, the democratic party does not have to resort to such disreputable means. Mr. Glaze- brook would rather lose his office than to gain it at the expense of another gentleman’s character. We were complimented on Tues- dav morning with a call from J. P. McKee, of Henry county, Iowa, who is visiting relatives and friends, Lle is brother to J. J. McKee and Broth- er-in-!aw to D. N. Thompson, Mr. Henry Cco.,lowa. They will return the latter part of the week. mas presents for the Misses and Ladies those elegant slipoers at Max Weiner’s are the very thing. The entertainment at the opera house will be given by the students of the Academy, and those who at- tend will certainly enjoy a treat and those who stay at home will miss the event ot the season. The best talent of our Academy will be rep- resented. Miss Jessie,the 11-year-old daugh- ter of Capt. F. Davis, died at the residence ot her parents on Sunday morning at 2 u’clock. The funeral took place Monday afternoon, the services being conducted by Rev. A. Walker. Jessie was a lovely little girl and the sympathies of the entire community are given the fond pa- rents in this their great affliction. Santa Claus has made Dickinsheet’s contectionery store headquarters this Christmas and has tnrned over to him his entire supply of candies, nuts, truits, etc. Santa Claus is a wise man and knew that Dickinsheet would sell his cargo at bottom prices and bis large supply ot candies cheaper than anybody in town Don’t fail to visit Dickinsheet during the holidays. Quite an animated meeting has been going on at the St. Mark's Episcopal church during the past week. On last Wednesday evening Rev. Mann, of Kansas City, Preach- ed a very fine sermon to a large and appreciative audience. Or. Thurs- day evening Rev. E. Talbott, of Macon, Mo., preached, and Saturday night Rev. Chas. H. Bohn, tormerly ot this charge, now of Ft. Scott, filled the pulpit, To-day an open reception will be given Bishop Tut tle, at Mr. and Mrs. Brugler’s resi- dence, to last from three o’clock till six, to which all are invited to meet the Bishop. At mght the Bishop will hold baptismal and confirmation services, when, we understand, quite a number of converts will be con- firmed and baptised. Ludwick & Son have an elegant supply of albums tor the holidays— just the the thing for a Christmas present. They also have a nice line of other articles that are hand-- some, usetul and ornamental, for hohday gitts. Their albums are very pretty andcheap. Go and see them. The report was circulated on the streets Sunday and Monday that J. R. Jenkins had purchased Mr. Walton’s interest in the Butler National Bank. A Times reporter saw Mr. Jenkins and he was cone siderably amused over the idea, say- ing that it would cost over $20,000 to accomplish that. He presumeu that the report came from the rumor that he was to be employed in the bank after his term of office had expired. Mr. Jenkins said that he had no assurance that he would be employed and that he was making arrangements to go on his tarm, Mr. Walton said that Butler was his home, all his interests were centered here and that he had no idea of leaving, in spite of the efforts of a certain few who seem determined he shall sell out and quit Butler.
