The turbid, stench-giving water of
tho Sandy Lick Creek just now is the
first thing that groets the eye and the
odor therefrom fills the nostrils of
comers to town on the A. V. R'y. The

the channel, but the smell thereof stops
not along the shore but stalks the
Btreets, enters houses and gives offense
to many sensitive smelling organs of
our village.

circulated In Reynoldsvlllo that live
men lit Piinxsiitawney drank lmer from
a keg in which thero was a dead snake
and that they were all poisoned, three

expected to live. The story was told
In good faith by some of the pi'oplo.
The Pittsburg pii'i's published an
article last Thursday to the effect thut
six miners of West Newton wore
poisoned by drinking boor out of 11 keg
In which was a dead copcrhcail snake.
The story Is getting to be an old fake.

A Farmer's Loss.
John Penfleld, a farmer of Sugar Hill,
lost his barn, all the hay and grain
raised this season, two horses, valued at
$400.00, one colt, throe cows and a calf,
by fire on tho night of tho 10th Inst.
Ho had been attending his futhor-ln-law's
funoral, William Dougherty,
that day and did not get home until
after dark and a lantern was used to
put the horses away, but the lantern
was lighted In the house and the farmer
Is unablg to account for tho fire unless
tramps were lodging there and carlessly
set the barn on fire. The loss amounted
to about $3,000 with only $1,000 insur
ance. It was a sad day for Mr. and
Mrs. Ponfiold.
Beat the Record.
Of all the outlandish, unnerving,
noisome noise that has boon sprung
upon the people of Reynoldsville in
many a day, was heard here last Friday
evening. One of our merchants gave
out one thousand patent noise-makers
with his advertisement on one side and
on the other side was the picture of
Harrison and Reld for Republican boys,
and Cleveland and Stevenson for the
Dumocratio boys. The "clappers" and
campaign horns placed in the hands of
the young Americas was all that was
required to produce a pandemonium on
the streets. A boy with a "clapper" In
each hand and a horn In his mouth, all
in good working order, was not an
unfrequont sight. Capt. Reynolds said:
"I don't know whether hades has boon
lot out for dinner or recess."
Profusely Decorated.
Prof. W. J. Woaver, teacher of room
No. 3. and his scholars have ornamented
their room with pictures, colored paper
and inscriptions. The celling is beauti
fied with worked colored paper and bal
loons. Bock of the teacher's desk In large
letters are the words: "Earnestness
alone makes life eternity," and on the
other walls can be found tho following:
"An idol brain is tho devil's workshop,"
"Knowledge is power," "Know stops
backwards," "We seek the why."
Three large pictures, Henry W. Long
fellow, Columbus at the Court of Spain,
and a landscape, adorn the walls. The
ends of the seats are trimmed with
worked colored paper, and curtains
have been hung at the windows. The
bare walla and celling have boon robbod
of their dingy appearanoe and the room
has been made attractive for the
scholars.
Did Not Enjoy It.
A man who digs "dusky diamonds" at
tho Hpraguo mlno and lives In Hathmol
got a bath ono evening last week that
was not relished with complacency.
Tho man often gets his wages and
conn's to Koynoldsvlllu and gets loaded
with "tatiglo-fiHif' and after a few days
spreelng returns to his home and family
filled with whisky and devlllshness and
abuses his family shamefully. Tho
kind hearted men of Rathmel, and there
aro many In that village, wearied of
such conduct In their midst and decided
that they would make It Interesting for
the offender. On Wednesday uvciilng
of last week, after a three or four day s
spree, the man who loveth to "gti7..lo"
Intoxicants wcuih'd his way to his
domicile and forthwith Ix'gnn to abuse
his family. A mob of nlxnit a d07.cn
men decided to take him to the woods
and give him a gtxxl trouncing with
mule whips, but this plan was not
carried out, The "gnz.lor" was lured
away from his home on an Invitation to
"come down the road and have a drink."
Tho deceiver and his victim had
travelled but, u short distance when
they came to some men who wore
talking rather loud and noting as if
they were going to light. The "victim"
was led into the midst of the gang
where two tulw and a pail of water were
in readiness and ho was put into one
tub and the other one wus turned on
top of him and then the pull of water
was thrown on to rinse him off. The
fellow wont home a wetter If not a
wiser man. He threatened vengeance
on the men who gave him the ducking.
The man may ho thankful he oscas-d
so easily 11 nil hud better treat his family
In a more becoming manner hereafter.
A Suspicious Character.
Several men near .Ins. A. dithers'
farm, came Into town Monday evening
with a touch looking fellow whom they
sold was prowling around their prom
ises In a suspicious manner, and they
wanted to give him a dose of law. Tho
man was taken before 'Squlro No IT for a
hearing. The Justico asked him whore
he came from and the answer was,
"quite a piece, mister." Tho next
Interrogative wus, "what Is your naineV
"I don't know, mister. I don't troublo
uny M ion with my name and I don't
want to bo troubled ubout It, mister."
According to thu testimony tho Justico
suid ho was a vagrant tramp and ho
would finu him five dollars and costs.
The man said he had no money and ho
wus sentenced to lodging In tho lock-up
and II vo days work on the street. Ho
did not object to tho five days work,
but ho wus not pleased with tho lock-up
part of tho sentence. The tramp, as he
wus dublied and his apourance Indi
cated It was not a misnomer could have
mudo It lively for some isjrson. He
was not arrested by an offlcorof tho law,
tho men who brought him to town took
tho law in their own hands. Tho fellow
got a square meal and was released the
next morning.
Fire Saturday Evening,
Benjamin Jones, a coal miner who
lived near Cold Spring Hollow, was
mode homeless by tho fire fiond Sat
urday evening, October 15th, which
consumed his house about nine o'clock.
The origin of the fire Is a mystery.
Mrs. Jones was ironing at tho time and
had tho gas turned on very strong.
The household goods were mostly all
saved, although many articles were
badly used. Mr. Jones' best pair of
pants, with a twenty dollar bill in one
of tho pockets, mysteriously disappear
ed that night during the excitement.
The fire company responded promptly
to the alarm, but as there was no water
plug near the fire the hose cart was
only taken to the Arnold block and re
turned, but the hook and laddor truck
was huuled to fire by a mule. The house
and furniture were insured for $1,050.00
by Walter Spry in tho Springfield,
Mass., Company. The building was in
sured for $750.00. An adjuster will be
here this week.
Electric Railway Meeting.
Thursday evening of last week the
stockholders of the electric railway for
Reynoldsville, met at Lawyer Cam.
Mitchell's office to organize and got
things arranged to do something In a
business-like manner in bringing the
mattor to a head. F. K. Arnold was

at reduced rates.
We will sell lime by tho load at 10
oenta a bushel. J. C. King It Co.
REPUBLICAN MEETINO.
The 8treets Were Dusty The Parsdo a
Ficile Speeches Full of Republicanism.
Friday evening tho campaign bull
was started by tho Republican in this
place. The penplo anticipated seeing
a big torchlight procession, but their
expectations woro knoeked out when
tho parado was seen on Main stroet.
Tho consplcuousness of tho 'long
procession by Its aliseneo was what
dlsapimlntod the people. Tho proces
sion, what there was of It, made a good
apiieoronoo with tho men In their
handsomn uniforms marching along
amidst tho red lights that were burn
ed on Main street and to the music
of brass and martial bands. County
Chairman K. C. Burns and tho candi
dates, 1). H. Heiiior, for ('engross,
lames G. Mitchell, for Senate, and W.
O. Smith, for Assembly, rode ahead of
the parade in a carriage, followed by
the Reynohlsvillo Cornet band and the
martial band followed tho uniformed
parallels and boys with campaign horns.
The decorations were not elaborate,
the most extensive being forty-two
Chinese lanterns strung across the
street from tho Arnold block to MoKon
lc Warnick's store.
After the street erformaico tho
Centennial hall was packed and many
decided not to go In to hoar the
sH'iikers simply Ix-ouuso they could not
gain an entrance Into the hall. Dr. J.
W. Foust was elected chairman, and
ho read a list of two dozen names of
gentlemen who occupied seats on the
platform us vlco-prcsldcnts. A. J.
Truitt, one of the legal lights of
Punxsutawnoy, was first Intrisluced
and ho eulogl.ed the candidates who
woro present. Daniel H. Helner, of
Kittannlng, was tho second speaker.
Mr. Reiner's forte is not as an orator.
The third, and best Keaker of tho
evening, was John W. Rood, Esq., an
able lawyer of Clarion. It was evident
by tho repeated applause during his
HM)cch that thfi Republicans sanctioned
all that ho sold, In fact all three
spcukors woro applauded heartily. Tho
Republicans were highly pleased with
thu meeting in tho hall, but have little
to say ulxmt their street parado.
A Political Joke.
Davis MoCrackon, tho veteran mer
chant of Reynoldsville, sprung a joko
on sovoral men who woro In his Btoro
Monday, that has caused considerable
comment In political circles. In talk
ing about political Hoppers, Mr. Mc
Crockon said thut Mr. C. II. Preseott,
who has been known as a llfo-long Re
publican, Is now a Cleveland man. Mr.
Prescott's Republican friends gavo vent
to their opinions vory freely for Such
action on his part, whilo tho DomiMirats
rejoiced over tho fact. Mr. MoCrackon
said ho was a "Cleveland man," but in
tho repetition of tho accusation it was
changed to a " Democrat." No ono can
deny tho truthfulness of tho statement
that Mr. Preseott is a Cleveland man,
for he has been a resident of that city
for several years. Do you " tumble ?"
A False Report.
Editor Star: It has come to my no
tice that political schemers of this place
have been busy circulating reports that
whilo I am chairman of the County
Committee of the Prohibition party of
this county, I still adhere to and vote
the Dumocratio ticket. I desire to say
that this is untrue, and that I have
voted the Prohibition ticket In every In
stance since the vote on the Constitu
tional Amendment was taken, when
there was a Prohibition ticket nomi
nated, and shall vote the Prohibition
ticket at the coming election, and also
in the future. Now I trust no voter
will allow himself to be deceived by
such a reyort, which could only be cir
culated by an unprincipled and ma
licious person desiring to deceive vot
ers. S. Shaffer.
