An Addison Man’s Warning to
Scandal Mongers.
Abpbisox, Pa, Aug. 1st, 1900.
Eprror Star: —The Bible teaclies me
that “if it be possible, as much as lieth
in you, live peaceably with all men,”
which of course means with women
also.
Any person with a truthful tongue
cannot say otherwise than that I try
to live a Christian life. I try to treat
my fellow men right. People may
persecute me and say all manner of
evil against me, and 1 generally make
due allowance for the person and con-
sider the source. But when it comes
to slandering and disgracing my family
without a cause, I shall certainly be on
hand to try for justice. If I or any
other man would not try to protect his
own, we would be worse than an infidel.
The public has heard but one side of
the subject 1 wish to present in the
columns of your paper, and for that
reason I shall show up the other side,
to do justice to one who has been un-
justly wronged.
On July 3d, 1900, between the hours
of Sand 12 a. m.,, a certain party in the
village of Addison claims to have had
some money stolen, and of course there
must be some one to saddle the blame
upon. The blame was accordingly
thrust upon some poor, good-natured
person, one whom it was considered
would perhaps not make any defense.
The saddle was thrown onto one of my
family, in order to try to frighten me
into paying for the crime of some one
who is not a member of my family.
3y the help of God I am able to de-
fend my daughter, and I propose to
show the public that she has been
wrongly accused. I can confirm the
fact that the accusation against her is
a falsehood from beginaing to end.
On the evening of July 3d my daugh-
ter and some other young folks took a
walk down town, and on re
A Series of Run-Aways.
This has been a great week for acci-
s to persons driving horses, the
worst of the series happening to Mr.
| and Mrs. Harry McCulloh, who were
for a drive on Sunday afternoon
1d had a run-away that might have
illed both of them. Their team start-
ed to run away while coming down the
hool house hill, and those who saw
the herses coming down the street at
a break-neck speed, say it was one of
the most horrifying sights they ever
saw.
SC
Mr. MeCulloh was thrown from the
buggy near the residence of Stewart
| Simpkins and was dragged across Gay
street and hurled head first against the
massive stone wall of the Reformed
church. Here he became disentangled
fromt the wreck, and the horses,which ran
| pell mill against the church, turned
ran out Gay street, but did
not go far until they became entangled
in the lines, which turned them into a
picket fence, smashing it down, but
south and
| brought the run-away steeds to a stand-
still.
Mr. MeCulloh presented a horrible
appearance after the wreck, but we are
glad to say that he was not seriously
hart, although his injuries were very
painful. Ilis back was badly skinned,
and his shirt looked as though it had
been steeped in blood. He was also
hurt about the head, but he is able to
be about, and is getting along first rate.
Mrs, McCulloh was also injured to
some extent while getting out of the
buggy after the horses came to astand-
still, but her injuries were less severe
than those of her husband.
The buggy was somewhat demolish-
ed, but the wonder is that the occu-
pants and the horses were not all kill-
ed. The run-away was caused by one
of the horses getting a line under his
tail, which excited him and started him
to kick and run.
Two other accidents occurred the
same day at the crossing in front of
Tue Srar office. A double seated con-
veyanee, in whieh were several passen-
gers, got a severe jolt in passing over
the street crossing. The jolt caused
the rear seat to tip backwards and
dump the two hind passengers out into
the road. They fell heavily, and of
course they were hurt, but they were
helped into the conveyance, and they
promptly resumed their journey. We
do not know who the occupants of the
conveyance were.
Another man took at tumble at the
same crossing, last Sunday, which was
caused by his horse falling down,throw-
ing the driver headlong out in front of
the conveyance. lappily he was not
injured, or at any rate very little. We
do not know who the man was.
On Monday afternoon our genial, fat
triend, Mr. John 1. Beachy, had a run-
away. Ile drove to West Salisbury,
where he hitched his horse and pro-
ceeded to attend to some business. In
the meantime a train came along,which
frightened the horse and caused him
to break loose and run away. Aside
from a broken buggy no other damage
was done.
It was a right good week for run-
aways, wasn’t it?

Letters to Africa by Graphophone.
An entirely new and up-to-date meth-
od of sending love messages to the dear
ones at the front has been adopted by
many prominent ladies of London,
among them Alrs. Baden-Powell.
The novel idea was conceived by
Colonel Gouraue. an American, who
suggested that the graphophone might
be made available for transmitting
messages that would be appreciated
far more by the boys in khaki than let-
ters. Imagine, he said, the feelings of
those same boys when they could hear
the well-remembered voice of mother,
sister, sweetheart or wile whispering
right into their ears.
The idea took like wild fire, and Lord
Vivan left for the front a few days ago
with a whole load of the graphophonic
daughter went into the store of H. L. |
Dean & Co., pur
and gave Mr. H L.

bill belonged to asked my wife to

I presume some people thought they
dollar bills, so one of the family went
to Mr. Dean and picked out a bill, |
claiming it was stolen from them, and
said they could swear to it. The same |
persons also said that Mr. Dean would |
swear to it, but Mr. Dean is a man of |
his word, and he says he will not swear
to it.
The accusers also went to Ursina and
were the only persons who had any five
Confluence and tried to pick out money
that was spent on a public day like the
4th of July. First they claimed it was |
seven dollars, afterwards that it was |
a twenty dollar bill, and next that it |
was two five dollar bills and so 1
ver. So you see they had different
stories as to the amount ol money tak-

But as I have rot the

space, I will sum the matt
lows:
I can prove that my was not over
there in the forenoon, and I ean prove
that a certain person came out of the
house at or about the time it is elaim-
ed the money was taken. Further-
more, I can prove that the alleged |
stolen bill was not the one my girl got |
changed. Even if it had been, that |
would not be proof that she was the
one who stole it. I can also prove
|
|
|
many other things in my daughter’s |
defense that I shall not now take the |
space to mention. |
So in conclusion I will say, any per-
son or persons throwing any further |
insinuations oun any of my family per- |
taining to this matter, will be dealt |
with to the fullest extent of the law. |
Yours For Justice, |

Eprror Srar:—I have changed places
since I last wrote to you. I am now
working for the State Lumber Compa-

miles from Columbia Falls. The com-

of fifteen trout that averaged a pound
apiece, and one catch of thirteen that
averagéd nearly as good. I caught

which was a foot long, then hooked one

I got to shore with it. IT waded out
into the river probably; 100 or 150
feet to a big riflle, and each time had
to wade back to shore in order to make
sure of the fish. I used a fly hook
baited with a grasshopper.
There are lots of bull trout or char in
these waters, but they seldom raise at
a fly. An artificial ninnow is best to
catch them with. One of the boys
brought a bull trout to camp, last Sun-
day, that dressed 8!'4 pounds. They
get to be quite large, weighing as much
25 pounds.
I am not fixed to do good fishing. 1
don’t have enough time for fishing to
justify much of an outlay for tackle.
It requires about $15 to buy a good
fishing outfit.
It’s about 3 o'clock now, and I have
decided to go and try my luck again.

George's Crack Strike Broken.
The great strike in the George's
Creck mining region was broken last
week, and the miners went to work at
55 cents per ton, the price offered to
them on April 1st, when they struck
for 60 cents. The miners. therefore,
lost the strike, for which Tae Star
feels sorry, but we are not disappoint-
ed in the result. We are informed
that many of the strikers have been
black listed and will have to look else-
where for work. This is another la-
mentable fact, bat such is fate, and it
can’t be helped. The miners of the
United States will never be able to cope
with their employers throughout the
country in general until they are solid-
ly organized all over the country. In
unity there is strength, and all the
should unite in one
great union. Not to foster strikes,
but to prevent them if it is possible to
prevent them honorably, and to win if
strikes become a necessity to obtain
laboring classes
justice.
A great majority of the Creck men
who had found employment in this re-
gion have returned to the Creek region
and resumed their employment there.
A number of them before leaving ask-
ed Ti: Stan to express their thanks
for the good treatment they received
in the Elk Lick region. These men
spoke highly of our operators as em-
ployers, and also of our miners as fel-
low-workmen. “We were never treat-
ed better anywhere by operators, min-
ers and citizens than we were (reated
in the Elk Lick region,” is what many
of the Creek men said to the editor of
this paper.
