Two gentlomen from Minneapolis
were in Reynoldsville several days last
woek trying to establish another

we already have four here they found

object of their visit. The home Build
ing and Loan is the place for Reynolds

Esq. Noff and wife drove to Brookville

side of . Brookville where tho road
branched off several ways and the other
sleighs took the Rldgway road and then
the bolls ceased to jingle and Mr. Noff
discovered that he was sleigh riding
without bells, the hostler at Brookville
having forgotten to put them on. The
bells were shlpjied by express.

It Is remarkable how stories get
circulated and vary about things that
occur, and more especially things that
have never occurred. Miss Vannetta
Patterson's death was one case that bad
misstatements attached to it. It was
told on our streets that the young lady
taught school until noon on Friday and
got to Mr. Fye's door-stea4 and oould
not got into the house without assist
ance, and that her people were not
aware of her sickness or death until
taken borne in a collln Sunday after
noon. According to the DuBois Cour
ier's version she died in a sled on her
way home.
Building and Loan.

Death of Mrs. Wayland.
Mrs. Sarah Ann Wayland, wife of
James Wayland. who lives alien t throe
miles out from Reynoldsville, died
Tuesday evening, Jan. 17th, 1803, at tho
ago of sixty-six years. Her funeral ser
vices wero held at heir It to home, con
ducted by Rev. .las. II. .Telbart, Thurs
day afternoon and her remains wero
buried beneath the sod of Beulah ceme
tery. Tho deceased was a sister of
Peter Baum and was married to James
Wayland on July 4th, 18,'0. A husband,
five sons and three daughters ure left
to mourn for her.
New Depot at Falls Creek.
The new A. V. R'y depot at Falls
Creek has been finished and was moved
Into on Sunday. Tho building is 100
feet long and 25 feet wide, contains two
waiting rooms with ticket ofilco between
them, a baggago room, telegraph office
and a restaurant. It is a good frame
building, and no doubt coin pares
favorably with tho railroad company's
impression of tho town, yet the roads
centering there could well afford to
have built a large brick union station.
It is a vast improvement over the 10x12
"coop" that has been used heretofore
by the throe roads as a passenger
station.
Turn ofT the Water.
There are so many people la Royn
oldsvllle who uso the reBervoir water
that allow the water to run all night to
keep their pipes from freezing up, that
it has been difficult, in fact impossible,
to keep the reservoir sufficiently full of
water to be of any service in ease a fire
would break out about tho third watch
of the night. It is inconvenient to
"monkey" with frozen pipes, but people
should not waste tho water that way.
The water company has made a special
roquost that it be stopped, but of course
most all the people deny being guilty of
such a trick and consequently the com
pany cannot find out by whom it is
done, yet the water dissappears in the
night time.
A New Coal Field.
Punxsutawney News.
A new coal company has its eyes on a
large tract of land lying in Bell town
ship, this county, and a test of the coal
producing qualities of the land has
already begun and before the work of
testing ends tho earth within tho terri
tory namod will bo punctured with a
good many holes. Tho operators are
from Philadolphlaand Philipsburg, with
Mr. W. H. Wigton, of Philadelphia, a
well known coal operator at tho head.
The land begins at the mouth of Canoe
In Boll township, and runs east parallel
with the Pennsylvania and Northwest
ern railroad and takes a portion of Gas
kill township. There is no doubt that
this territory contains one of the richest
beds of bituminous coal in this section
of the country and is only a question of
time when it will lie oierated.
An Oddity.
A man who lives eight or ten miles
out from Rcynoldsvillo drove through
town about dusk Saturday evening with
a "turnout" that elicited some joking
remarks and considerable curiosity from
a few boys who chanced to bo on the
street. A large grey horse and a small
bull were hitched together to a sled,
which was loaded with grain, and a
small porker tied on and standing up in
tho front part of the slod. The bull
was harnossed tho same as the horso
with the bridle on and a bit in his
mouth. One boy said "that fellow
must be short a horso," and another boy
promptly respondod that ho thought
"he must be short a bull." The man,
who is an eccentric fellow, started on
his journey at an ox-gait amid the
choors of the boys who happened to be
attracted by the oddity of tho combina
tion. Burned Her Hair Off.
Miss Roberta Ayors is not now
troubled in putting up her hair, but she
may be thankful she was not disfigured
for life. She had a nloe head of hair
but now Bhe Is a "short-haired" young
lady. Last Thursday she washed her
bair and was standing near a fire drying
it and got too close to the "gas-demon"
which drew her hair in and set it on
fire. In place of running, as is general
ly the way in moments of danger,
Roberta stood still and threw her left
arm over her head and stayed the fire
when the hair was burned off half her
head. The loss of her hair and a little
burn on one hand was the only damage
done. The only alternative for Miss
Ayers was to go to a barber shop and
have the balance of her hair cut ofi.
The young lady detests short hair, but
the only thing for her to do Is to wait
until It grows long again. Sho would if
she could, but if she couldn't how could
she be long-haired ?
Compelled to Oo.
Sometimes the law seems extremely
severe and unmerciful. In August of
1802 Anthony Prynn moved his family
to Reynoldsville from Rlmersburg nnd
they wero only hero a few months until,
on account of Mr. Prynn's nior health,
the gaunt wolf want visited their home
and the family was badly in need of
help before their clreumstanccs were
known. Tho Epworth League of the
M. E. church supplied tho family with
tho neeussarios of life which lostod for a
time, but when that was exhausted tho
family was put on tho borough. Tho
family elrelo was composed of Mr. and
Mrs. Prynn, two children and her
mother. Tho latter part of December
the oldest child, a boy four years old,
died. Tho poor overseers of this bor
ough Investigated tho case nnd found
that the family belonged at Sernnton.
Mr. Prynn did not want to go to Scran
ton because he would be put in the poor
house, but the law Is explicit in such
coses nnd It was the poor overseers'
duty to take him whether he wanted to
go or not, even if ho would refuse to tako
assistance from the borough. II Is goods
wero pocked and shipped on Monday
and Overseer C. J. Kerr left here yes
terday with tho family for Scranton.
Mr. Prynn has a brother there who will
tako them in and they will not bo com
pelled to go to tho poor house.
A New Plan.
Beginning February 1st tho Oil City
Fuel Supply Company will Inaugurate
a system that will be of great conven
ience to its customers and will certainly
be appreciated by them. Under the
present system the consumer calls at tho
ofilco of tho gas company and asks for
his bill. In every caso this causes de
lay, while tho bill is selected from sev
eral hundred similar ones. In many
instances, particularly between the 8th
and 10th of each month, the delay is
much longer on account of the crowd.
On February 1st the Oil City Fuel Sup-
ply Company will mail to each of its
patrons a postal card notifying them of
the amount of gas consumed by them
during tho previous month. With this
card at hand the customer can make
his own change and present it with the
postal card to tho window man and
receive his receipt. The business man
under the new system can send his card
and check for the amount by mall or
messenger boy and to the housewife the
system will be of esoclal benefit, as the
correct amount of her gas bill together
with the card, may be sent by one of
the children.

The New Sites.
The school directors have decided on
the locations for tho new school build
ings to bo built hero this summer. As
previously stated tho one in tho East End
will be built on the vacant lots on Main
stroot east of Tom Reynolds' barn.
The one for the West End will bo built
on the corner of Fourth and Grant
streets, just opOHito Delble Bros.
wagon shop. P. F. Flynn lives in and
owns tho dwelling house now standing
on that site which will be torn down.
The school board are aware of tho fact
that they are not pleasing everybody,
but they have taken all things Into
carefnl conslderaton and have selocted
sites which they think are for the best
Interest of Reynoldsville at present and
in after years.
hoe Talk.
You are always buying shoes. Shoe
buying Is a dlsagroeablo business. It
is expenslvo business as well. But
what are you to do? You must have
shoes. Now if all shoes were alike, it
wouldn't matter where you bought your
shoes. But they are not all alike, so you
must put yourself in the hands of the
dealer as to quality and value. Size, price
and looks you can toll, that is all you can
tell; time must tell the rest. So your
confidence is not in the shoe, but in the
dealer. We want your confidence. It
will not be betrayed.

An Untimely Death.
Miss Vnnnettn Patterson, one of tho
finest young Indies In tho neighborhood
of Sandy Volley, who had a host of
friends, died at eleven o'clock last
Sunday morning, Jan. 22, after a
short illness. She was teaching tho
Steele school anil boarding at Samuel
Fye's. The Sunday evening before sho
died she was taken from tho homo of
her widowed mother, near Sandy Valley,
to Mr. Fye's and caught a severe cold,
but was able to teach her school until
Wednesday noon. Her caso was not
considered anything more than a bad
cold. On Sunday sho took seriously III
and a doctor was sent for and her sister,
Mrs. Caldwell, went to her bedside and
was the only memlier of tho family
present when she died. The mother
was unable to go to see her daughter on
account of being 111 herself. Tho re
mains of the young lady wero taken to
the home of the almost heart-broken
mother Sunday afternoon, where tho
funeral services were conducted yester
day afternoon, by Rev. Geo. Hill, pastor
of tho Hueuhwoods Presbyterian church,
of which she was a member. Miss
Patterson was a whole-souled girl
and won friends readily. Sho was
almost twenty-one yearn old. Conges
tion of the lungs was the cause of her
sudden demise. It is a severe blow to
the widow who had burled her hus
band and a son not long since.

That to patronize tho home Building

than to lie taken In by every new ono
that comes along all on paper with high
salaried officers and two big, fat, well
dressed men to tell you how big your

word. But stay by your home one, con
ducted by men you know and if they
don't suit, you have a say so in changing
them.
Tho time is here to chooso borough
officers. See to it that fit men are
chosen regardless of party. Evorybody
should desire to boo the town prosper.
You wish an electric railway. Talk
