Our paper is not up to its usual high
standard, this week, owing to the fact
that the entire Star force went to Som-
erset, yesterday, to attend the eorner

Besides, today is Thanksgiving Day,
and we must have some time to rest,
eat our turkey and give thanks.

Mr. Ross will be able to do a nice busi-

An exchange suze: we feel sorry for
the man who does not read his home
paper. He is no better than a mas
without a country. He is like a home-
less cow, that has no regular pasture
but grazes promiscuously on weeds and
thistles. No matter what other papers
may be read, the straight-forward oiti-
zen always insiste on heving his home
paper.

District Attorney Jerome, of New
York, however reformed he may be
now, was a great card player in his
early days, so much so that his mother,
who was a pious woman, said to him

great deal of time is wasted, dear, is
there not, in playing cards?” “Yes,
mother.” he smiled in reply, “there is—
in shuffling and dealing.”

When “Mickey” Harding, “Artie”
Emerick and Joseph Bantam Wagner
were taken to jail, last Saturday morn-
ing, a by-stander remarked: “The
locking up of those fellows will make a
pretty good sized hole in the Demo-
cratic party in this locality ” Just then
another fellow remarked: “Them fel-
lers ain’t Democrats, they’re brother
Socialists of ourn.” And then a little
schoolboy spoke up, saying: “Aw,
youse are all off ; them fellers is nothin’
and durn little o’ that” Who was
right?
Abraham G. Livengood, who return-
ed home from Grand Rapids, Mich,
several weeks ago, with a ease of ty-
phoid fever, has fully recovered and will
go back to Grand Rapids again tomor-
row, where he will resume his studies
at a veterinary college. His brother
Daniel, who has been eclerking for
Druggist E. H. Miller, will also enter
the veterinary college at Grand Rap-
ids, and will also leave here tomorrow.
A son of 8. P. Young will take Daniel’s
place in the drug store. We wish all
three of these young men success, and
we believe they are made of the right
kind of stuff to achieve it.

A story is told of a prominent school
teacher who kept ‘bachelor’s hall” in
the district where he taught, and was
supplied with food by the neighboring
tarmers. One day a small boy came
running toward him, and said, “Say
teacher, my pa wants to know if you
like pork.” “Indeed I do like pork.
replied the teacher, concluding that the
very stingy father of this boy had de:
termined to donate some pork to him.
“Tell your father if there is anything
in this world I do like it is pork.” Some
days passed and the teacher had seen
no pork yet. At last he met the boy
slone in the sehool yard. “Look here,
John.” he said. “how about that pork?”
“Oh,” replied the boy. *‘the pig got

Salisbury never before had sueh a
water famine as right now. Wells and
springs are dry that have never been
dry before, and if it doesn’t soon rain
abundantly, many people will have to
haul water from streams and springs
out of town. The need of a good sys-
tem of water works is very urgent in
thie town, and why some of our eapi-
talists do not invest some of their capi-
ta] in sueh an enterprise, is a wonder
to people all over Somerset county. If
Salisbury is going to allow herself to
remain at the tail end of the proeession
among the towns of Somerset county,
and keep on allowing smaller towns to
forge abead of her in the matter of
modern improvements, we will be
backs.

There is probably no place op earth
better than a country newspaper office
to learn how many kinds of people
there are. Some get “huffy” if a state-
ment is sent, while others will not pay
until they receive a statement. Still
others won’t pay if a statement is sent
or not, and some it takes more than a
statement to sqguare-themselves with
their fellows. Some say they owed
more, others thought they didn’t owe
quite so much. Some say the paper
don’t amount to much, while others
say “I want to take it as longas I can.”
But the meanest, scrubbiest in the list
are the persons who take it until they
are shut off for non-payment and then
spend half their time explaining bow
they used to take “the thing,” but
stopped it because it was “no ’count.”
These are only a few of the many dif-
ferent kind of people.

Meyersdale Man Convieted of Crim-
inal Exposure of the Person.
Meyersdale, Pa., Nov. 17—J. A. Bush,
a well known barber of this place, was
heavily fined this morning and severe-
Iv reprimanded by Burgess Shipley,
when he was arraigned on a charge of
criminal exposure. Aceording to all
accounts, Bush has been repeating this
offense for some time, but it was only
recently that the attention of the au-
thorities was directed to the matter.
It is stated that he insulted every
woman and girl that passed his shop,
and made an especial target of school
children. He pleaded guilty to the
charge, and no witnesses were ealled.

ty’s Metropolis.
Windber, Nov. 17.—When the schools
open Nov. 28, after the institute, this
week, there will be two new teachers
on the local faculty. There are at
present over 1,000 pupils, about 100
more than last year, and there is a con-
tinual growth. A prominent edueator
said that if the new parochial school
takes 200 of the pupils, there will still
be need of the extra teachers. There
are now 20 instructors in our schools,
and the educational facilities were
never better in this place.
The parochial school will not be
ready for use before Jan. 1, it is said,
or perhaps later.

bration Sunday included his only son,

Hope io Strike Rieh Gas Deposit.
C. E. #pecht, of Stoyestown, was in
the city yesterday and was asked ocon-
cerning the gas well drilled recently
on the Dan Long farm, near Btoyes-
town. Mr. Speeht said that great in-
terest was being manifested in the op-
erations by all the presidents in, that
section of the county. He himself is a
member of the Lineoln Oil and Gae
Cempany.
Aeeording to Mp. Speebt,two os three
more holes will be drilled in the neigh- |
borhood of that on the Dan Long farm.
The promoters hope to strike & sieh gas
deposit, or pocket, and if thei» expeeta-
tions are realized will pipe the gas to
nearby towns. There is some talk of
piping it to Johnstown, but of eocurse
this project is as yet only in embeyo
form. The well in whieh gas was
found is now plugged up, so that mone
of the gas will escape.
It hes net yet been determined
This is accomplished by lowering cave-
fully into the well can after ean of
nitroglycerine. Then a piece of iron
known as the “go devil” is dropped
down the easing. In the meantime
those on the surface are ssurrying for
shelter, as if oil is struck, or a new
pocket opened, the spray of the thick,
heavy liquid will cover everything
within 50 yards of the well.—Jqhastown
