HAZLETT, GEORGE S. HUSELTON. WASHINGTON NOTES. The Capital of the Nation seems deserted-all the Congressmen have gone home, also many of the employees of the Departments, and the President will be at Oyster Bay for some weeks. Considerable progress was made, last Sec'y Hay and Minister Concha of Colombia in drafting the treaty between that county and this for the lease of the strip across the isthmns of Panama, through which the canal will pass.

The Colombian constitution forbids any cession or surrender of territory, and therefore a long term lease will be secured, which will have to be passed upon by the Colombian Congress, and as the country now has a civil war on hands that bodj is not in session, Sec'y Hay, also, has been using his best efforts to secure the evacuation of Tien-Tsin, the sea port of Peking, which is yet occupied by foreign troops. The United States troops left months ago, but those of England, Japan and Germany are yet there, contrary to the provisions of the treaty signed last September, and of this the Chinese government complains. POLITICAL. Senator Quay said his visit to Gov. Stone was "pleasant and eminently satisfactory." If it can be shown that the Allegheny river has washed away the point of Butler county below Freeport and depositsome of Armstrong Co.

there, a few wheel-barrow loads of ground from across the river in Westmoreland Co. might solve the contiguity question. A dispatch from Greensbnrtr says "It has been finally decided by the Democratic leaders of Westmoreland and Butler Congressional district that the district nomination shall go to Candidate Heineman of Butler, unless Congressman Showalter is given the Republican nomination. In that case, it is told here, the Democratic nomination will come to Westmoreland." "It is apparent that the Republicans of Pennsylvania have determined to "mix things" a trifle next winter when a successor to Boies Penrose is to be elected to the United States Senate. Lackawanna county Republicans have named William Connell as their choice for the high place.

The Republicans of Chester county have indicated that their preference for the place is State Senator W. P. Snyder, of that county. Other counties, east and west, and north and south, have men who would adorn the seat now filled by the Philadelphian, and the promised contest for the place, strictly within party lines, cannot but be serviceable to the Republican organization of the State and cannot but add importance and dignity to the seat to be Pittsburg Times. Another Johnstown Calamity, Johnstown was the scene of another aDpalling disaster, last Thursday.

An explosion of fire-damp or gas in the coal mine connected with the great iron mill there killed a large number of miners. There were several hundred men in the mine at the time of the explosion, most of whom escaped, but by Saturday evening the dead bodies recovered numbered 113, and on Sunday sixty coffins were placed in one long trench. The man who was blamed for causing the explosion by digging into a room which had been closed on account of gae being in it, was found with his head blown off. Most of the victims were foreigners. SAMUEL W.

PENNYPACKER, the Republican nominee for Governor, is a prominent local historiographer and antiquarian, as well as a jurist of high standing. He was appointed to succeed Justice Mitchell in 1889, was the same year elected for a ten-year term in the common pleas of Philadelphia, and reelected in 1898. Judge Pennypacker comes of revolutionary stock and was born at Phoenixville, in 1843, served as a private in an emergency regiment in 1863. was graduated from the law department of the University of president of the law academy in 1868, and afterward compiled some valuable law reports. He has the degree of doctor of laws from Franklin and Marshall College, he has long been a member of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania and his papers on the "Pennsylvania Dutch" are considered valuable contributions to the history of the Keystone State.

AT a hearing in Newark, N. regarding the affairs of the U. S. Steel President Schwab showed the properties of the Co. to aggregate 000,000 in value, and he figured the earnings at over ten per cent.

THE residents of Ephraim. Utah, the agricultural centre of San Pete county, where the crops last year were completely ruined by grasshoppers, have adopted a novel method of exterminating the pest, which is again threatening the crops. A series of entertainments has been arranged, the admission to which is one-half bushel of grasshop pers. The first dance held and seventy-five half bushels of grasshoppers were presented to the ticket man at the door. After the dance the "hoppers furnished fuel for a bonfire to properly top off the occasion.

THE United States Shipbuilding Co. has absorbed the Bethlehem Steel Co. with the result that one of the most completely equipped and self-contained shipbuilding plants in the world has been formed. The new company in thus able to make every part of a ship, including armor plate and guns.

THESE days when hundreds of houses are being built, all roofed with slate, the inquiry arises where does all the slate come from?" The green or No. 2 slate, which is a few cents cheaper per square than the black, comes from Vermount. The black or No. 1 comes from Slatington, Lehigh county, and Bangor, Northampton county, near the Deleware Water Gap, this state. There are immense slate mines or quarries, the vein being 300 feet thick.

The slate is quamed in blocks and split into shingles with a chisel while damp from the quarry. Drillers say they pass through a thick bed of slate at a depth of 500 or 600 feet in this county. If this is the case this slate should crop out in Venango and Forest counties. ivy wood. Charley Morrison's birthday party was his 25th wedding anniversary.

That how a of our customers expressed it in speaking of our Saturday's trade. wan the first day of onr (ire.t Clearance Sale and a fi great day it was It kept our entire force of clerks bnsy wrapping up the goods as fast as the crowd picked them off the counters. Many of the I great heaps of footwear which had piled on our immense counters dwindled away like snow beneath a hot sun.

but we are not sroiug to stop a at this. We will k- fp the good work going on: we will keep these connters tilled up, if we have to lose a good deal of money. We want every family in Butler county to get a share of these great bargains, but don't wait too long. There is an end to all things and at the rate they came on Satniday ij it will he imp issihle to keep all sizes very long. Stop in and see the Ej busiest store in liutler county, whether you want to buy or nor.

The ej goods are displayed so yon can look them over at your leisure.

Duplicate after duplicate was placed on goods, but onr immense trade jnst before the glorious Foarth left us with many lines broken iu fej Br sizes. We did not have all of any one line, but hM sizes in all the (different lines. We felt after the great amount of goods we had sold we could afford to almost give balance away, so concluded to wind forepart 5 of season up with one of the greatest clearance sales ever held in Butler No After Fourth Dull Season Here Trade is usually quiet every place just after Fourth; not so here.

Onr ej patrons have got to know that when we advertise a marked down or bargain sale that it is genuine and no fakn to fool or try and fool people fc into coming this way. We always have the to back up what we i advertise. We did not have time to put ad iu paper for Saturday, so ju-t 1 penciled announcement on window that we had a Clearance Sale and the a way the crowd came Hocking in made us feel as thongh onr greatest an- I ticipations had more thau been reached. Space will not permit us to give a in detail the greatest amount of bargains to lie had at this busy store. I Will just say.

Follow the crowd and come iu and look them all over We have a large fleetric fan going and a big tank of ice on tap for con- jjjj venience of our visitors.
