The following young busi ness men of Butler weie present: J- M. Tucker, Don Kinney, C. A. Em merson, Elmer Kipp, A. E. Blaeh art, E. S. Carrithers, L. A. Weil, W. E. McElree, Dr. J. It. Boyd, G. P. Wyatt, Geo. Weaver, Peter Lane and Chas Pharis. On motion C. A. Emmerson was elected chairman, J. M. Tucker, sec retary. The following soliciting committee was appointed: W. T. Duvall, Don Kinney and Geo. Canterbury. This committee of active young men went to work and on Saturday raised upwards of two hundred and fifty dollars. It is an old but trite saying that "old men for council, young men for war," and the promptness with which these young gentlemen ac complished this work is but another instance of its truthfulness. We are glad to commend these youug gen tlemen in accomplishing a work which the older ones tried several times and failed. On Monday the committee went to Rich Hill. The following is a complete list of the parties in Butler who donated to this laudable enterprise: Harmonious Clippings. Hot, hotter, hottest: Oh, for a cool breeze, is the cry of most peo ple just now. Oats harvest is the order of the day. The bugs are putting in their work pretty well the last few days ripening the oats and are doing con siderable damage in pieces of corn. We suppose every one had a good time the -1th, our section was pretty well represented. We are glad to see Lewis Decker in our midst again, but very sorry to hear of his misfortune in getting his finger broken. Mr. Andrew Henson and family, of western Kansas, are visiting relatives and friends in this township. Rev. Randall preached an interest ing sermon at Harmony scuool house on -July 1st, left an appoint ment for the same place the 1st Sunday in August. The health is generally good, so far as we know. The time for blackberries is here and who will tell us where to find a cood liatch. Wonder what made Elmer and George in such a hurry last Sunday eve? You Know.

The grand celebration in this city on the 4th, was all that could be ex pected, and the boys belonging to the flambeau club, who took the mat ter in charge and managed it to such perfect success deserve the greater part of the credit. It was the largest concourse of people ever present at a similar oc casion held in this city. The trades display by our busi ness men. was highly appreciated and their enterprise was very com rnendable. The burlesque aud amusement part of the programme conducted by Dr. Ely, was very en- ertaining and laughable and called forth much praise for his thought- fulness and wit. The burlesque on he county jail, waterworks and lire' lepartmeut were exceptionally good and were loudly cheered as they pass ed around the street in the parade. Badgley Bros, tloat representing their grocery business was very nice and commendable, showing a full line of everything kept in a grocery, with beautiful flowers and a stuffed mant to show ott the -roods. I o o Jewett fc Hickman's display of wall paper was magmnccnt, and showed that this firm are not behind the times in all the varied styles of wall paper and decorations. The blacksmith shop of Vantrees & Vantrees, was one of the best floats in the parade. These gentle men had a blacksmith shop on wheels and were making the sparks fly from the forge, in front of the wagon stood a horse and while one riled the shoes the other nailed them on. It was a splendid exhibi tion of their uusiness. Jack Gipson, the Star blacksmith, was also in the procession blowing bellows and making the s-.paiks fly. Its a cold day when Jack gets lelt, and when it comes to iirst-class blacksmithing he is hard to beat. T. W.
