While returning from his work at
the mines, one evening last week,
Henry Engle, a good citizen residing
near Meyersdale, was set upon by three
strikers and so badly kickedinnd beaten

ants, but at last report they had not
yet been captured.
Backache is never known to those
persons who take an occasional dose of
Pineules. The value of the resin ob-

bottle will cure. Sold by Elk Lick

And now Director Freak,or whatever
his name is, is reported to have said
that the schools may go to hell. That’s
where they would go in a very short
time if all school directors were like
Director Freak. He would permit a
rotten and baleful brand of unionism
to creep into the schools and poison
education at its fountain.
Old Saint Matthias, who is supposed
to break the ice and release us from
the grasp of winter, worked at his bus-
iness pretty well for several days dur-
ing the past week, but his recent ac-
tions indicate that he has joined the
miners’ union and gotten himself on
the relief. It’s just possible that St.
Joseph Hartline is to blame for it.
George Cook and family, who resided

prosperity in their new home, where
Tur Star will visit them weekly and
keep them posted on doings here.
At a recent teachers’ institute in
Clearfield county. the following signif-
icant question was debated: *“Resolv-
ed, that a man who takes a newspaper
without paying for it cannot be =

eration, there is some hope that some
time, in the sweet bye and bye, news-
paper men may be fairly recompensed
for their labors.—Ex.
It is difficult to cure a cough or free
yourself from the discomforts of a cold
unless you move the bowels. Bee's
Laxative Honey and Tar acts on the
bowels and drives all cold out of the
system. Then comes its soothing effect
and strengthening influence upon the
throat and lungs. For Croup, Whoop-
ing Cough, Colds, and all Lung and
Bronchial affections, no remedy is
equal to the original Laxative Honey
and Tar. Sold by Elk Lick Supply
Co. 8-1
“Way Down East,” which has been so
successful the past six years, will be
seen at the New Donges Theatre, Mey-
ersdale, on Friday, March 3rd. It isa
delightful play of New England life,
and will be presented as heretofore un-
der the direction of Joseph R. Grismer,
who is certainly a master of stage
craft. The farm pictures and the snow-
storm scene lend themselves well to
stage realism The scenic effects will
be very beautiful »nd elaborate. The
compuny has been selected carefully
for its individual qualifications. The
sdle of seats open at F. B. Thomas’
Drug Store, Meyersdale, Pa.
Croup is quickly relieved, and
Whooping Cough will not “run its
course” if you use the original Bee's
Laxative Honey and Tar. This Cough
Syrup is different from all others be-
cause it acts on the bowels. You can
not cure Croup and Whooping Cough
until you rid the system of all conge:-
tion, by working off the cold through a
copious action of the boweis. Bee's
Laxative Honey and Tar does this, and
cures all Coughs, Croup, Whooping
Cough, ete. No opiates. Sold by Elk
Lick Supply Co. 6-1
We are under obligations to Eli 8.
Miller for a head of lettuce large
onough to make a meal for a good-
gized family. The lettuce was very
crisp and fresh, and was a sample from
Mr. Miller's own greenhouse. Mr.
Miller has been bringing large quan-
tities of his palatable home-grown let-
tuce to town during the psesent winter.
and it is far superior to that shipped
here from the cities. It is claimed by
some medical men that eating lettuce
freely during the winter months is a
sure preventative against smallpox.
We do not kuow whether there is any
such virtue in lettuce or not, but we
do know that it is a very wholesome
diet, and webelieve that Mr. Miller's
lettuce has had much to do with the
general good health of this community
during the present winter.
“Way Down East,” Lottie Blair Park-
er’s play of New England life, comes to
the New Donges Theatre, Meyersdale,
on Friday, March 3rd. It appeals not
to a limited class, but to everybody
with a spark of sympathy, a liking for
an interesting story and a relish for
clean wholesome fun. There are many
reasons for its popularity; its pathetic
theme, its genial humor, its charming
pictures of country life, its quaint
characters and striking realism; but
its more potent element undoubtedly
is the strong human interest that per-
meates every scene.

INCREDIBLE BRUTALITY
It would have been incredible brutal-
ity if Chas. F. Lemberger, of Syracuse,
N.Y, had not done the best he could
for his suffering son. “My boy.” he

LaziestjMan in Maryland.
It is said that the laziest man in
Maryland lives in Frederick City and
used the second floor of his home, and
the stairway to furnish firewood for
this winter; but (Garrett county can go
them one and call their hand with a
farmer who had his child carry a stool
after him in the cornfield that he
might sit down and hoe his corn.—
Oakland Journal.
We know of lazier men around here
than the Garrett county farmer. Some
of our citizens, if they were to hoe
corn, would lie down: on a good lounge
and compel their wives and children to
do the hoeing.
CHAMPION LINIMENT
RHEUMATISM.
Chas. Drake, a mail carrier at Chap-
inville, Conn., says: “Choamberlain’s
Pain Balm is the champion of all lini-
ments. The past year I was troubled
a great deal with rheumatism in my
shoulder. After trying several cures
the storekeeper here recommended this
remedy and it completely cured me.”
There is no use of anyone suffering
from that painful ailment when this
liniment can be obtained for a small
sum. One application gives prompt
relief and its continued use for a short
time will produce a permanent cure.

Big Timber Purchase.

Stewart heirs a large body of timber
land comprising 2800 acres, surround-
ing the village of Ohiopyle, with the
large summer hotel known as “Fern
Cliff,” and “Fern Cliff Park,” and the
Ohiopyle Falls,and the hotel building
opposite the B. & O. depot. and the
water power at the same point. This
alone will prove a valuable asset at no
distant day, as by making a short canal
they can send the entire Youghiogheny
river down a fall of 90 feet.—Meyers-

I tried my family doctor, he did me no

Handsome and Popular New Cen-
terville Widow Weds.
SoMERsET, PA, March 1.—The many
Somerset friends of Noah Blough, the
wealthy live stock dealer of Geistown,
Cambria county, are delighted to learn
of his marriage to Mrs. Georgia Van-
dersloot, of New Centreville borough, a
beautiful and accomplished young
widow. The nuptials were solemnized
by the Rev. George W. Knepper, pastor
of the Somerset Christian church, at
Rockwood, just before the happy couple
started for the East and South on an
extended wedding tour. The Rev. Mr.
Knepper forgot his marriage ritual, but
this deficiency was made up by the use
of a marriage formula which was gra-
ciously offered by a Rockwood minis-
ter.
Mr. Blough has for many years
purhased live stock from the farmers
of Somerset county, and he is very
popular among the Somerset farmers
and local stock dealers. In the race
for the hand of the vivacious Centre-
ville widow there were a dozen wealthy
