Our old triend and college chum,
“Newtie” Lenhart, has invited us to
“come up” and get some of those po-
litical “peaches” and “plums” mention-
ed in last week’s Star. “They’re ripe,
now,” says “Newtie.” That will be
news to most people acquainted with
the wormy fruit we mentioned last
week, which is known to be very green.
Some of the “peaches” and ‘‘plums”
mentioned, such *“Newtie,” for in-
stance, are soft enough to be ripe, but
rotten and wormy fruit gets just as soft
as ripe fruit.

H. P. Gillet has a flock of hens that
for the year 1904 was a big paying in-
vestment. His flock consists of 14
hens, and during the year he received
2,054 eggs, or an average of 147 eggs
per hen. At 18 cents a dozen the re-
ceipts for eggs amounted to $30 81, and
the chickens sold and consumed
amount to $19.60, bringing the total re-
ceipts for the flock up to $50.41. Dur-
ing the year the amount of feed bought
was $17.50, leaving a net balance in
favor of the hens of $32.19, or $2.35 a
hen.—Waterford Leader

Warning has been sent out by the
Postoffice Department to hotel keepers,
merchants and others, in various xec-

purchasing postal money orders,
swindlers are now operating with them
extensively.—They purchase an order
for sums like $6 or $8. and then raise it
to $60 or $80 With the increased order
they pay hotel bills or purchase
merchandise for small amounts and
get $50 or $60, as the case many be, in

at the postoffice for payment, of courss
it does not agree with the advice, and
by that time the “traveling man” has

George Krausse, who is a Freshman

hence will be put into the Junior class.

A few weeks ago some of the stone
cutters employed at the new court
house at Somerset volunteered to
chisel a block of Bedford limestone in-
to a handsome setting for a clock,
with the understanding that it should
be chanced off and the proceeds do-
nated to Lesder Otho Walter, of the
Somerset Orchestra, who has been sick
for nearly a y=ar. The proposition of
the stone cutters was eagerly accepted
by Mr. Walter's friends, and as a re
sult the handsome time piece was Sat-
urday night awarded to William 8S.
Anderson, chief draughtsman for Cald-
well & Drake, who held the lucky
number. At the same time Mr. Walter
was presented with a purse containing
$136 in gold. Mr. Anderson afterwards
presented the clock to the Musical

Joseph F. Joy, a son of J. R. Joy, who
several year ago began working about
electric and mining machinery, has
been keeping his eyes open and doing
some thinking. He has turned out to
be quite an inventor, and is now the
owner of some patents that promise
rich returns. He has five patents in
all, among which are the following:
A device for oiling cars while they are
in motion, an improvement on the
Jeffery mining machine, and a mine
locomotive. At present he resides in
Monongahela City, where he has or-
ganized a stock company for the manu-
facture of his oiling device. Joseph is
general manager of the company, at a
nice salary. We wish the young man
great success with his inventions. He
is a first rate, hard-working, studious
fellow, and all right thinking people
like to see such young men succeed in
their undertakings.
Barchus & Livengood’s annual clear-
nance sale, which has been in progress
since Keb. 1st, has been the most suc-
cessful sale of the kind that the firm
has ever had. Last Saturday was the
banner business day in that firm's
history, the sales far exceeding those
of any other day since the firm is in
business. Barchus & Livengood have
learned that in order to move a large
stock of goods quickly, it is only neces-
sary to offer good values at attractive
prices, and then invest liberally in
printers’ ink. In that way they have
been avoiding the accumulation of un-
seasonable and out-of-date merchan-
dise. They never allow their goods to
become shop-worn, unseasonable or
out of date. They sell everything
while it is yet in good condition and in
season, no matter what reductions are
necessary when the season for certain
lines is drawing to a close. In that
way they always keep their stock clean
and fresh, and such storekeeping is al-
ways appreciated by the purchasing
public.
Dr. A. F. Speicher’s 50th Birthday
Celebrated.
The Star received the following so-
ciety item from a friend in Los Angeles,
Cal. It will interest those of our read-
ers who are acquainted with Dr. A. F.
Speicher and family:
“At the home of Dr. and Mrs. A. F.
Speicher, 3005 Vermont Ave., Los An-
geles, Cal, a very pleasant social funec-
tion took place Jan. 10th, 1905, it being
the occasion of the fiftieth ‘mile stone’
reached in the doctor’s earthly pilgrim-
age. It was a complete surpri-e to the
doctor, and he could scarcely realize
his position he ushered in
among his friends and guests. It was
a very enjoyable occasion, and
a pleasant evening spent
together in games, music, refresh-
ments and social enjoyment. The
guests all wished the doctor a return of
fifty more similar occasions, and such
| a thing could be possible, should he
| continue to reside in the land of sun-
shine and flowers. Those present were
