A Pent Glerk can always be had by pulling the Knob im front. Yes? Yes?! Go with the crowd, but don’t stop at barbers of only a few weeks’ ex- perience, but keep right on with the crowd going to FRED DORN, the only expert barber in Butler. LOCAL ITEMS. Leen eT Highest price in cash for potatoes at Pharis & Son’s. The union labor-rag-baby-red-flag crowd will have to make another assessment on the republican party for more money. Judge DeArmond will open court at Clinton next Monday, which will remain in session about one week, after which he commences an active campaign throughout this congres- sional district. ‘Wood pumps at McBriwe & Co. Wm. Beaman of Summit town- ship, has marketed the largest crop of flax seed sold to the Butler eleva, tor so far this season. He had in about 120 acres and realized in the neighborhood of $1,500 for his crop. O. Harris did not have so many acres but wears the belt for raising more bushels to the acre than any man who has yet delivered his seed to the elevator. . Up to date the ele- vator at this place has paid out to forty and fifty thousand dollars for flax seed. For hinges, locks “and all kinds of house or barn hakdware, go to A. L. McBarws & Co. Friday lasc Capt. H. P. Nickell, of Homer township, shipped a car load of oats from Butler depot to Dr. Tilton at Carlisle, Ky., the price was 32 cents. He also wanted 25 bushels of potatoer and the same amount of apples. The doctor is a ‘breeder of fine stock, has many acres of blue grass and lives in the center of gravitation. Yet he appeals to the fertile praires of Bates for suc- cor. That's all right, doctor, Bates always has plenty and to spare, and her hospitable people take pleasure in assisting at all times the unfortu- nate and needy. Chain pumps at A. L. McBrive & Co. From reports in the Carthage Democrat, the republicans had a high old time at the congressional convention. One delegate shouted at the top of his voice that “God was an anti-Democrat.” Yet this God and morality party made G. H. Wal- ser their chairman. The democrat says that Walser is the man who es- tablished the town of Liberal, whose charter stipulated that no church of God should be built in that town He is the basest blasphemer that ever disgraced the southwest. From such a delegation comes Lewis of Cedar, who asks to be sent to con- gress. No people will endorse the work of a convention headed by a blasphemer and rounded up bya man who tries to trail thenameof the Creator in disgust. Itis a shame on civilization. McEL ACES WINE. Lr CAMDU! for Weak Nerves, Mise Fulton furnishes a very good illustration of the benefits of elocu- tionary training. She possesses a voice of only ordinary strength but is so carefully trained that with no apparent effort she was able to make it heard in all parts of the large opera house. She also appeared to most excellent advan- tage with Mr. Morris, as Helen and Modus in a scene from the “Hunch- back,” and really did some clever acting —K. C. Times.

He had loaded about one hundred and had a few more that had by mistake been loaded before being capped. He thought he would cap them any how. No cap had ever exploded by being pressed into the empty shells and he therefore had no fears. He had not capped many before one exploded. The shell was brass and the force of the explosion tore it all to pieces. His fingerson both hands were badly burned and the flesh torn in a few placed. The wounds are very painful but not serious. The evening hunt was indefinitely postponed.—Holden Enterprise. Rev. L. P. Siceloff delivered his popular lecture “The Young Man That’s Wanted” to a large audience last night.

Mrs. Nannie Hevalin Purkey. = With a gentle smile on her pale lips and her hands folded overa pulseless heart, Mrs. Nannie Heav- lin Purkey lay sleeping her last long sleep, robed in her wedding clothes, while loving friends, with hearts rent with anguish, looked upon her for the last time on Thursday after- noon. Scarcely nine months have passed since she left her parents home to become the devoted, loving wife of L. R. Purkey. -The few months that she graced his home were months of unaloyed happiness. Their home was one of love and joy, where pol- ished friends and dear relations were j welcomed guests. Ever as a devoted wife, a loving daughter and a christian lady, Mrs. Purkey will be remembered in the hearts vf her friends. And with our blessed Master’s strong arm tq guide us, we will meet our missing loved one in our Father’s mansion when we leave this world of care.
