They all say they never did take much stock in “Lucifer,” and that they take none whatever in him now. They don’t like an editor whose politics change with the moon. Henry Loechel has built a handsome new picket fence around that portion of his lot where his old stable used to stand, and J. D. Livengood has put down a substantial new pavement, all of which adds greatly to the good ap- pearance of Union street. Squire O. W. Boyer met with a very painful accident a few days ago. He fell from the steps of McKinley’s har- ness shop to the stone pavement be- low, striking his elbow heavliy and badly bruising the same. He is carry- ing his arm in a sling and says it pains him exceedingly. The Advisory Council of the Jr. O. U. A. M. will convene at Pine Hill on Fri- day evening, April 29th.

There were probably 120 of our people there, but the turn- out should have been twice as large. The numerous shows billed for the week undoubtedly kept a good many people away, but that should not have been the case. A freight train consisting of thirty- three cars loaded with Monarch bicy- I cles passed through Huntingdon Tuesday morning. Each car bore a large placard on either side, reading “Monarch Bicycles.” The wheels were shipped from the Monarch Manufac- turing Company, of Chicago, to John Wanamaker, at Philadelphia and New York City. There were 6,200 bicycles on the train.—Fverett Republican. Our friend Dr. A. J. Welfley having about recovered his usual health, has resumed the active practice of his pro- fession. The mention by us last week that in case of a “scrap” with Spain he intends to offer his services as a sur- geon in our navy, was quite a shock to our young ladies, and they are hoping now more than ever that there will be no war, or if there is, will be of very short duration.—Confluence Press. on Last week this advertisement appear- ed in two Pittsburg papers: “A strong, healthy man, 380 years old, never mar- ried, well-fixed financially, desires to correspond with a reputable and good- looking young woman, with the object + bles. | he was traveling with a first-class opera | of matrimony.” There were over 300 letters received from marriageable women who were willing to take chances with a stranger. Her name will be kept a secret, but here is the letter received from a B8alisbury girl: “You said you wanted a good- looking girl. I am a Christian girl, of fair complexion, light hair, blue eyes, 22 years old and would like to get mar- ried. Send me one of your pictures. If you have none, get a tintype taken and send that. Excuse lead pencil and mistakes.” The Salisbury Cornet Band has seen fit to disband. Frank Statler and Jus- tice Hartline have taken charge of the instraments and they are for sale. Some of the best musicians in the or- ganization have for a long time desired to sever their connection with the band, owing to other matters that required more of their time and attention. The band was heavily in debt, as country bands usually are. The persons taking charge of the instruments assume all indebtedness. Tne STAR is sorry to see our famous band go to pieces, but we have the talent here to organize anoth- er one, in fact several other ones, if the people take hold of the matter. town ought to have a band, dnd it is doubtful whether it will long be with- out one. A good band adds life to a town and is almost a necessity. On Tuesday evening while Rev. J. C. Mackey and family were all away from home. a lamp, which was lighted and left hanging in the hall of the house, ex- ploded and evidently created an in- tensely hot fire for a while. When the The | family returned a rank smell of smoke | and oil was observed. Upon investiga- | tion the cause was soon found. The | ceiling was smoked black, the hall fill- | ed with soot and the lamp a total wreck, | some of the metal portions of it even being melted by the intense heat. The strange part of it is that the house was not set afire by it. It was certainly a narrow escape. The lamp was a new one and had been filled and properly cleaned not long before it was lighted, which makes the explosion hard to ac- count for. Either the lamp was defec- tive or the oil of an inferior quality. Stephen Girard, the. infidel million- aire of Philadelphia, on one Saturday ordered all of his clerks to come up on the morrow to his wharf and help un- lond a newly-arrived ship. One man replied, quietly: “Mer. Girard, I can’t work on Sunday.” “You know the rules?” “Yes, I know. I have a moth- er to support, but I can’t work on Sun- day.” Well, step up to the desk and the cashier will settle with you.” For three weeks the young man could find no work, but one day a banker came to Girard to ask if he could. recommend a man for cashier in a new bank. This discharged young man was at once named as a suitable person. “But,” said the banker, “you dismissed him.” | “Yes, because he would not work on Sundays. A man who would lose his place for conscience sake would make a trusthworthy cashier.” And he was . appointed.

Wes Hall is the name of a Smith county, Kan. farmer whose 17-year-old daughter died recently. Ile went to town after a coffin and found one, it is said, that had been badly damaged ina fire that he could buy for $3. Loading the coffin into his wagon, so the story goes, he drove around to the different carpenters of the town in search of one who would repair it. Knowing that Hall was well off, the carpenters indig- nantly refused to do the work, and he was compelled to take the casket home and repair it in the kitchen of the house where his daughter lay. The local pa- pers took up the affair, and it is believ- ed that the country will be. made too warm for Hall by his scandalized neighbors. rt A tn - - A little boy asked for a bottle of “get up in the morning as fast as you can,” the drug- gis trecognized a houschold name for “De- Witt’s Little Early Risers,” and gave him a bottle of those famous little pills for consti- pation, sick headache, liver and stomach troubles.

Then he realized that to continue the strug- gle was useless, and very reluctantly ceased fighting. He is a remarkable man in more ways than one. I have heard it said of him that he can talk more stupidly and act more sensibly than any man in the country, and that is, I think, a pretty cofrect character- ization.

It may be inter- esting at the present juncture to quote Lord Nelson’s opinion of their sailors. They have fine ships, he says, but they are shockingly manned, and could the barge crew of six British vessels, num- bering from 75 to 100 men, get aboard | of one of their first-raters he is confi- dent they could have captured her, al- though her ship’s company numbered nearly 1,000. He continues: “If those we are to meet in the Mediterranean are no better manned, much service cannot be expected of them.” When he actually met the Spanish admiral in 1793, as an ally, he was at once informed that the Spanish fleet must at once return to Cartagena, hav- ing 1,900 sick in the fleet—for they had been 60 days at sea. This excited his derision, which he thus expressed: “From the circumstance of having been longer than that time at sea, do we at- tribute our getting healthy. It has stamped with me the extent of their nautical abilities; long may they re- main in their present state.” He never forgot thése impressions nor the bung- ling efforts of the Spaniards to form a line of battle.
