As will be seen elsewhere the pro; gram for the Centennial has been com 1 pleted. The exercises for the whole three days, speakers, have been arranged for. But some changes may 1 be found necessary. It was found impossible by the Committee on Invitations to written or 0 i printed invitations to all old Butler county people. They seemed to be scattered over the whole earth.

It is hoped therefore that all. everywhere, who see or hear of onr Centennial in 1 any way or mode, will come and that without any formal invitation. All the old Butler cjunty men chosen for addresses as appear upon the gram will please drop a line as to their coming, for certain or not. so that if cannot come their places can be filled in time. It is hoped however that all named will be at the Centennial.

Everything is moving along very cessfulij-. The different Committees are at work and the exercises of some of i them defined and provided for. Several interesting relics have already been sent in and any amount more are promised. The relic Committees of the different towns and townships are busy 1 collecting them for exhibit. Some special Committees will likely yet have to be appointed, especially one of ladies, and one to see as to vocal music, singing, by young girls and boys, etc.

11. O'Hkikn SON'S, 107 li. Jefferson St. Evans City's Had Fire. At six o'clock Saturday morning fire was discovered in the old broom factory building at Evans City owned by George Iflt and occupied by the Specialty Manufacturing com pan v.Charles F.

Emery's sucker rod shop, and in the second floor by Mr. Ifft as a storehouse for carriages. The building was a mass of flames in a few minutes and although the Irwin Hose Co. soon had streams of water playing on the building, it was totally destroyed. The fireman did excellent work in preventing the flames from reaching the casting hall of the Specialty works, but a few feet away.

Directly across the P. W. tracks and in the path of the wind from the fire is Edward Dainbacli's planing mill and lumber yards. These also were saved The fire lasted five hours. The heaviest looser is the Specialty Co.

which was orsanized scarcely six months ago and immediately started to manufacture ice cream freezers. They anticipated a large summer trade and had 12,000 unfinished and finished freezers in the building, the latter ready for shipping. Most of these were destroyed. They carried £2,500 insurance on their plant. Charles Emery had worth of sucker rods and pipe in his shop.

Most of these were destroyed. He carried insurance. Mr. Ifft had just stored a half carload of buggies in the second story and these were all destroyed. He had 1,200 insurance on the building and stock.

Estimates on the loss all the way from to $30,000 which was not likely more than half the latter figure. OIL NOTES. The Market agencies dropped to $1.44, Monday morning, and are paying the same this morning. CLEARFIELD well owned by G. Titley.
