Ed. Burns, the liveryman, took a sled
load of ladies to DuBols one evening
last week to attend tho Catholic fair
and when coming down the Cool Spring
Hollow hill on their return home one of
the runners of the front "bobs" dropped
into a gully in the rood which had been
filled up with snow and the sled, with
its precious freight, upset and Mrs.
Pat. Flynn got her head cut. Other
wise there was no damage done
only the unpleasantness of coming In
contact with the snow and.ioe so unex
pectedly. Some weeks ago the DuBols Courier
said that M. W. Wise, cashier of the
DuBols bank, bad sent in an order for
fifteen hundred World's Fair souvenirs
half dollars. Last Saturday the Courier
said Mr. Wise received fifty of the
above mentioned souvenirs, but had not
enough for all. The Saturday edition
also said that Mr. Wise sent in his
order two months ago, but did not
anticipate much of a demand for them
or he could have secured more at that
time. Fifty is quite a oome down from
fifteen hundred. Will figures ,? or
was the first statement mado before the
paper had fully recovered from the
presidential campaign?

A Feast.
Tho memlxirs of tho f. U. A. M., of
Handy Valley, with their wives, sisters
anil "sweet-hearts" feasted In the town
hall at that place on Christmas ovo.
Tho "spread" was an elaborate ono and
was gotten up so as to please tho most
fastidious epicurean In tho hamlet
two miles north of Iteynoldsvlllo.
Tho ladles of Handy Valley understand
tho "knack" of making palatable
eatables. It was a success pleasurably
and eatably speaking.
Christmas Treats.
It has become almost an unchange
bio custom for the Sunday schools of
Reynoldsville not to let Christmas tlmo
pass by without going to considerable
trouble to prepare a program and also
furnish a generous supply of candies,
nuts, oranges, apples and poicorn for
tho boys and girls, faithful and unfaith
ful, who have their names on the Sun
day school records at least ono or two
Sundays before Christmas. The Christ
mas of 1892 was no exception to tho rulo
and the various schools prepared lavish
ly for the occasion. The treat oust
some schools almost fifty dollars.

8eason Tickets.
The Reynoldsville Lecture Associa
tion will now sell season ticket for the
three lectures, Jan. 20th, Fob. 22nd and
March 22nd, for 11.25. If you appre
ciate a good thing, don't lot these lec
tures pass by without going to hear
them. Tho Lecture Association should
have the support of all tho peoplo of
Roynoldsvlllo who are interested in in
culcating into the minds of tho young
people of this town a desire for some
thing more elevating than a minstrel
Bhow. It is expected that all those who
promised will take season tickets, as it
was considered a guarantee and If there
is not enough money taken in to moot
the expense of the course, tboy will be
called upon to pay in thoir money,
therefore, they might as woll enjoy the
lectures,
An Upset.
A number of young ladies hired a
sled Monday evening and pockod into
it for a pleasure trip to DuBols. Four
young mon docided to visit tho same
town and they hired a two-seated slolgh.
The ladles started first and the two
seated "turnout" caught up to them at
Rathmel and, of course, was going to
drive past the fair maidens and go to
DuBols at a "two forty" rate. The
attempt was made, but when tho young
men gathered themnelvos out of the
fence corner the young ladlos were
going merrily along on their way to
DuBols. Whon the sleigh was turned
over on the runners again it only had
one seat the bottom of the sleigh box.
The young mon got in again and
proceeded on their way, but not with
as much comfort as before the attempted
"show-off."
Twelve Million.
Pat MoDonald and James Dognan, of
Reynoldsville, who have boon in the
lumber business for a number of years,
had more logs in this season before
Christmas than in any former year. They
have a contract for putting in twelve
million feet for Hon. A. C. Hopkins.
Seven million will be put in at Falls
Creek, over five million of this is al
ready in. They have twenty-one thou
sand pieces to put into the Sandy Lick
creek at this place. Twenty-two teams,
mostly farmers' teams, have been hauling
logs down Fourth and Fifth streets the
past week, working from early morning
until midnight. They averaged one
hundred logs per day and a half to each
team, thus twenty-two hundred logs
dally were hauled from the woods to
tho creek last week. Twelve million
feet Is no small amount of logs to cut In
the woods, haul to the creek, float to
Hopkins big mill and rip into lumber in
one year.
Majoi Dane at Centennial Hill.
Tho flint lecture of the coarso for
1802-3, under tho auspices of tlie Iteyn
oldsvlllo Lecture Association, was
delivered by Major Henry C. Dane, of
Boston, In Centennial hall ht Thurs
day evening before a small but
appreciative audleneo, and from tho
tlmo How. Harvey Ornmm IHirbsy, In
a brief Is it eloquent manner. Introduced
the Major until the close of tho loeturo
ho held the peoplo with marked
attention. His lecture, "Up tho Rhino
and over tho Alps with a Knapsack,"
was Instructive, contained thrilling
Incidents and was Interspersed with
mirth. The Major Is a pleasant speaker
and has wonderful descriptive ability.
While ho was describing sotno of tho
perilous places they encountered In
climbing the Alps, and esictiiaily whero
tho thirteen wore tied together and
tho leader had to cut steps la tho loo
and thus move one step at a time over
an liHi-ttotind place whero ono nibwtop
would have slid tho whirto party Into
eternity, ho held tho Biutcnoo almost
breathless. Homo pooplo reluctantly
went to tho lecture but were highly
delighted with It and would not havo
mlid hearing tho Maj-r tell of his
trip "Up the Rhine and ovor the Alps
with a Knapsack" for the prit of a
season ticket.
"The Merry Cobbler.
An immensely funny comedy, a high
ly tlevor star supported by ma exco(
tlonally strong company was tho verdict
rendered by tho largo uudienoo assem
bled to witness tho abovo performance
last evonlng. Mr. Ouropson In unques
tionably a finished lierman dialect
comedian, Irreslstahiy humorous with
out any apparent effort. The ptMHoasor
of a voice of rare sweetness and flexibil
ity, his make up Is good and his acting
natural and graceful ho reminds one
much of Ellis. Tho play Is excellent
and deals with every phase of human
life, high, low, comic and conscious.
All in all "Tho Morry Cobbler," Is a
splendid production, finely staged and
elegantly dressed. The specialties are
novol and what Is more they aro new.
A largo houso awaits Mr. Cumpson's

12th.
Looked for a Model.
David Wheolor, president of the
Reynoldsville school board, Georgo
Molllnger, John W. Fink, Jos. M.
Gathers, school directors, and Prof. W.
H. Steamy, principal of the borough
schools, were out on a tour of inspection
last week. They loft hore Tuosday
morning and visited the following places
and looked at tho school houses with a
view of getting a good idea of what to
build at Reynoldsville this year: DuBols,
Punxsutawncy, Boll wood, Altoona,
Johnstown, Pittsburg and vicinity.
For the amount of money invested the
Wllmordean, near Pittsburg, is the
best building the party vslted. The
gentlemen returned Friday evening
with a bettor knowledge of schools and
school housos than they had whon they
loft home.
Hollow Mockery.
Sunday was a good day for jiooplo who
had resolved to bo more faithful In at
tending church during 1893 and wore
looking for an excuse to stay at homo.
We will say just here that It is hollow
mockory for men and women who aro
blessed with heulth and strength not
Including Sunday sick, which Is ho
prevalent all over tho lund to profess
to be loyal to the church of their choico
who allow a little rain or snow to keep
them from thoir place of worship on
Sunday. Such people are seldom housed
an hour during tho week if they have
any place to go and want to go. Poo
plo who are afraid of inclomont weather
are the very ones you cannot put much
dciendunce on to do work in the church
or Sunday school. The weather Is a
good tester of religion.
Well Smoked.
The thermometer indicated anything
but warm weather last Saturday and
yet on the forenoon of that day people
who chanced to pass Esq. McGaw's office
between ton and eleven o'clock would
think the half dozen gentlemen "hold
ing down" chairs in the office thought
it was mid-summer. The front and
back doors were open and all the win
dows raised and the 'Squire was sitting
on a chair on top of the safe. McGaw
is not a lover of tobacco smoke and the
gentlomen who were "roasting their
shins" around the stove were also mak
ing the room blue with tobacco smoke,
hence the attempt on 'Squire's part to
"freeze them out," but they would not
freeze.
A Surprise.
Thursday, December 27th, 1892,
marked the sixtieth anniversary of Mrs.
Walter Spry's birth and the occasion
was not passed by unnoticed by her
friends. Walter Spry has a store in the
East End of town and when he is called
away on other buaineus his wife runs
the store. On the day above mentioned
sho had been in the store all forenoon
and when she went home for dinner to
her great surprise a number of friends
and relatives hod taken possession of
the house and had an excellent dinner
ready tor her. Mrs. Spry received
several presents among which was a
handsome chair.
Carol Singers.
Just nfter tho Methodist church bell
bad rung out the old year and greeted
tho new ono wo were lying In bod medi
tating u pen tho old friend that had
passed Into-tho amain of tlmo and won
dering whnt tho new, untried ono had
In store for us, when tho quietness of
tho Infant year watt dispelled by music
that was snt'harml'ntt that for a moment
we almost., wondered if we had lioen
transported boy mil tho realm of time,
but we failed to see Uio "Pearl j gates,"
"streets, nfi gold, "sea of glasit," or tho
"trees that' drop their leaves for tho
healing of tho antUms," and were com
pelled to acknowledge tho sad fact wo
were still living in tho frigid tone of
tlmo. How foolih we were tn hoiMi for
a mom nt of soorog tho beauties of eter

who minds other people's ImmIiicsh and
makes, misstatements because ho has
boon misinformed ever luting recog

least ho reckint some people whoso totm

We sovn riiseovored that tho sweet

somo Htigliah carol singers who wem
following the example (6 the angels who
sang on tho Judean plaih almost nine

the riTAR was among tho favored one

thankful and appreciated tho musio.
We retired to rest anil had just owr

by a party of young peoplo who had been
attending a part hartley and our teeth

Death frem Cancer.
Michael BrcDnan, who has been
known as "Old Mlko" for ma Ay years,
died about foitr o'cb:k on Thursday
morning, Dec. 2tth. Mlke has had
charge of the supply house of the A. V.
Ry. at Reyorildsville for a dozen or
moro years. Whon tho immense tun
nel on tho Low Grade, known as Sum
mit tunnel, was being mado a rock fell
down on Mike's head and for a tlmo his
llfo was despaired of, but he was nursed
back to health and a silver plate was
put In on the top of his head to cover
tho hole mado by the rock. After that
Mike could not go out In the sun and do
a day's work, thorofore ho was glvon
tho position as "storekeeper" for the
road. Ho was a single man and for
many years lived alone. Several years
ago his sister, Mrs. Conway, and her
husband camo to Reynoldsville and
Mike mode his home with them. Al
though his wages were not vory large
he mado and saved money and bought
somo property In West Roynoldsvllle.
Last spring cancer mode its appearance
on his lip. He went to Pittsburg dur
ing the summer and had the cancer
removed from his Hp but soon after it
mado its appearanoe on his left jaw and
when released from his suffering by
death almost tho entire loft side of his
face was eaten away. He suffered In
tensely. His funeral services wero
hold at tho Catholio church Saturday
morning and his remains were interred
in the Catholic cemetery. a kind
hearted Irishman has gone the way of
all humanity. Mlko always greeted the
railroad boys with "Ah, my lad," or
"My horty," and therefore he was well
liked and will be missed by them.
