The officials of tho A. V. R'y havo
not seen tho one hundred cars of freight
that the Pennsylvania R. R. was to
ship dally over the Low Grade, which
was to havo Von Inaugurated last Wed
nesday. There is somo talk of tho P.
R. R. shipping freight over tho A. V.
R'y, but it has not been settled yet how
many extra trains will be run or when
the work will be commenced. It la a
pretty certain thing that the Pennsyl
vania will ship considerable freight this
way before many days.
It has been rumored about town, and
even stated by correspondents to out
side papers, that S. B. Rumsoy, super
intendent of tho Low Grade Dlv. of tho

We are glad to say that there is no
truth In tho statement, at least the
emlnont physician of Philadelphia, by
whom Mr. Rumsoy is now being treated,
says it is not a enneer nor anything
evonof a malignant nature. Mr. Rumsoy
will be at home again in ten days or
two weeks with a good, healthy tongue.
Sixty years ago tho few people who
lived in this neck o' woods had to go to
Bollcfonte, sixty-six milos, forthoir mall
and groceries. The postage on a lot tor
then was about twenty cents. Now
groceries are delivered at your door,
and beforo many years tho free delivery
system will be in voguo, not only in
villages and hamlets, but tho farmer
can sit by his fireside in the winter
months and watt for tho mall man to
como, not only that but It will cost
a penny to send a letter. In tho olden
times, however,evory member of a family
did not visit tho postoffleo daily.
Tho overflow of tho Sandy Lick croek
on the swamp below town, and the
freeze up of the same, made good skating
for the lads, lassies and a few married
people Saturday. Tho creek was not
safe for skating on and consequently
the skaters almost swarmed on tho
place above mentioned. Several found
tender places In the ico and got into
the cold water up to their waists and
had some difficulty in getting out again,
as the ice would break when they
would try to get out and thoir compan
ions were afraid to got close enough to
help them, fearing they too might get a
bath.
Yesterday was St. Valentine day. On
this day many despicable cowards seize
the opportunity to send contemptible
colored pictures to their enemies as a
token of their hatred for them. Valen
tines sent out by young people, more
for a joke than anything else, is alright
but grown people who take that
avenue to try to hurt some one's feelings
are stooping to an act that shows their
extreme littleness. Some people are
very sensitive and when a valentine Is
received by them they take It to heart,
but generally speaking, such valen
tines have no more effect on the re
ceiver than the pouring of a pint of
water on a duck's back.
Rev. G. R. McKlnney, the evangelist,
Is still conducting services In the M. E.
church. His sermons are delivered In
a way that draws the people and the
house Is crowded almost nightly, and
yet there have been but few at the
altar. The man is greatly In earnest
and If the church members were one
half as much in earnest about a revival
as Rev. McKlnney is, there would be a
big Ingathering into the church. Unless
the people have a mind to work the
results of a special meeting will not be
very great. Rev McKlnney, in his
peculiar style, shoots some very plain,
unvarnished truths at his congregation
every evening.
There was a little sensation at DuBois
Saturday night. , A married lady,
whoso husband had not been living with
her for some time and she had boen
making her home with her parents,
went coasting with another man. The
green-eyed monster seised the "dog-in-the-manger"
husband and he met the
twalaat the parental gate and proceeded
to run air-holes Into the body of the
young man who had dared go coasting
with the woman whom he had solemnly
promised at the sacred marriage altar
to . support, love, honor and cherish.

John Murphy, a passenger engineer
on the A. V. R'y, who was "married"
to engine No. 3 alxnit fifteen year ago,
and at that time thought "she" was the
best engine that over turned a wheel,
has been persuaded to give up the
faithful engine for a faster and heavier
one, as the 3 is to small to do tho
passenger work on tho Low Grado now.
Mr. Murphy Is making his first trip
to-day on his new engine, No. 58, which
has just como from the shop.
A Success.
Tho "pink tea" supper given by tho
young ladles of tho N. T. L. Society of
tho Presbyterian church in tho G. A.
R. hall lust Thursday evening was a
grand success. Tho tables were loaded
with eatables that would please tho
most fastidious epicurean in Reynolds
vlllo, the ladles had on their Sunday
clothes and sweetest smiles, and were
careful that everybody was waited on.
It is remarkable what capacity some
people have for storing away good
things. The N. T. L. ladles were well
pleased with the financial success of the
"pink tea."
A Wise Man.
We received a letter the other day
from Homer B. Leach, of Alton, Kan
sas, formerly a live business man of
Reynoldsvlllo, which was dated Feb.
tUh, 1803, in which ho says: "As this
is my 53rd birthday, and I am starting
out on a now year, and we are old
friends, and you are editing A pajier,
and I wish to know tho happenings of
the town and to noto tho doings of my
old friends from time in Bhort, send
mo tho paiior for the next year." If
Mr. Leach has acted as wisely in all his
other plans for the coming year, his
fifty-fourth year will be the most suc
cessfully one of his life.

On the Right Track.
January 4th J. KaulTman, of Punxsu
tawney, oponud an auction store In the
Flynn building in this place and Sykes,
All is & Moorhouso, proprietors of the
woolen mills, had him arrested for con
spiracy, with intent to defraud. The
sheriff appeared on the soene and locked
the goods up until tho matter was set
tled. Tho woolen mill men had sold
Kauffman goods in his own namo and
afterwards he bought goods from them
but had tho goods shipped In his father-in-law's
namo, J. Adolson. Kauffman
claimed when arrested here that ho
was only a clerk for Adolson when the
unpaid bill of goods was bought and
that he could not bo hold responsible
for the dobt of his employer. He tried
a "bluff game," but the woolen mill
men were on the right track and would
not be "scared off." The grand jury
found a true bill against Kauffman at
Brookvlllo lust weok. A few hours bo
fore the case was to come before the
Court Kauffman wanted to settle. The
original bill amounted to (317.00, the
costs were almost $400. He was willing
to, and will, pay the entire bill. The
goods were shipped from Reynoldsville
to Altoona on Friday In another man's
name. ,

Not all Roses.
The sleighing party of young people
from Punxsutawney, Brookvlllo and
DuBois who came to Reynoldsvlllo for
a dance and supper last Thursday even
ing did not return to their respective
homes before the dawn of the following
morning In high glee, especially the
Punxsutawney and DuBois parties.
The first sled load for DuBois found the
road flooded before they reached Rath
mel and in attempting to drive through
upset. An upset in the snow Is one of
the novelties of a sleigh ride, but an
upset in the water puts a "damper" on
the pleasure, therefore, the load re
turned to Reynoldsville. A second load
started out and met the same fate and
they also returned to wait for daylight.
A third load left here for DuBois and
got lost and drove ten or fifteen miles
out of the way. It would be hard to
convince them that "the farthest way
round Is the nearest way home" under
Buch circumstances. Water and a
break down were some of the obstacles
the Punxsutawney parties had to con
tend with. Some of the young people
from all throe places finished their
sleigh ride on the morning passenger
trains. The difficulty of home going
found not its way into the ball room
while the "mazy dauoe" was going on,
e'en though the rain drops fell fast all
right. ., - . 'i .. I
Found Dead in Bead.
Mrs. Margaret Milliren, relict of
Dun lei Milliren who passed into tho
Great Beyond over ton years ago, died
at her homo near Emerlekvillo somo
tlmo Thurday morning Feb. Oth, at tho
ago of seventy years and seven months.
Sbo was an active old lady who had
been a membor of tho Methodist Epls
copal church for forty-two years, where
she was A faithful worshiper up to the
tlmo of her death. The old lady was
apparently in her usual health when
retiring Wednesday evening and when
tho girl went to call her Thursday
morning she was found dead In bed, but
tho spirit had not long beforo taken its
flight, as the body was not entirely cold
yet. Heart trouble is supposed to havo
been tho cause of her death. Her
maiden namo was Margaret McKlnley,
and sho was married to Daniel Milliren
at Rosevllle, this county, fifty-two years
ago. They moved into Emerlekvillo
forty-five yearn ago, where sho has
since lived and was loved and highly
respected by all who knew her. Her
husband and four children preceded her
beyond tho valley of death. Six child
ren, of whom our townsman, A. G.
Milliren, is one, are still living. Her
funeral services wero held in tho M. E.
church at Emerlekvillo at ten o'clock
Sunday forenoon, conducted by Rev.
Jas. H. Jelbart and her remains were
interred In the family burying ground
on the old homestead near Emerlekvillo.
Tho largo crowd that attended tho
funeral was evidence of the high regard
in which tho friends and nolghbors held
tho "old mother in Israel."
Savage and McMurray.
We met the editor of tho Clearfiuld
I'nljlii- Spirit at Brookvlllo in tho
Jiffrrmnian Ikmncmt sanctum sana
torium one day last week and were
forcibly Impressed with tho thought
that his namo (Matt. Savage) is a mis
nomer. Ho is a very pleasant
gentleman, but perhaps being in the
sanctum and presenco of tho good nA
tured editor, John McMurry, who had
just settled into his usual pleasant
mood after having had a sot-to with one
of those fellows who are grasping enough
to want to suMivldo tho clay they are
made of and sell it for town lots. Brook
vlllo is no exception to all other towns
when It comes to looking for men who
want a nowspApor to givo them compli
mentary notices and then they, in turn,
will try to "leat" tho editor out of a
siilwcriptinn or exiect their work done
for "a song." Bros. Savage and Mc
Murray have boon in tho business long
enough not to allow the "rackets" scat
tered along tho stream of journalism to
long disturb tho peacef illness and calm
that Is forced into a newspaper man's
life by pleasing everybody.
To Divide the Prothonotary's Office.
IPunxHUtawiiny Spirit. 1
Bills wore introduced simultaneously
in tho Senate and House last Thursday
by Senator Mitchell and Representative
Smith, to divldo tho prothonotary's of
fice in each of tho counties of this Stato
containing a population of not less than
40,000, and appropriating $15,000 to tho
Memorial homo at Brookvlllo. Tho
basis of the proposed division for tho
Prothonotary's office was, ono person to
fill the office of Prothonotury, clerk of
the courts ril gonoral quarter sessions
and oyer and terminer, and ono jierson
to fill tho oflico of recorder of doods,
register of wills and clerk of tho
orphans court. It will make two of the
best offices in tho county after It is
divided, and will give an additional
patriot a chance to serve his country.
But it Is a difficult matter to do. It has
been attempted in almost every con
ceivable way by many different persons
since , 1873, but has invariably boen
vetoed. Wo believe that tho bill now
introduced is constitutional, however,
and have hopes that it will escape tho
fate of Its predecessors.
, Studying Medicine.
John W. Warnick, once a teacher In
our public schools is studvine medicine
with Dr. MComb, of West Millvlllo.
New Bethlehem Vindicator.
Mr. Warnick was a groceryman In
this town for several years with R. E.
McKee. John has the ability to become
a good physician If he applies himself
studiously to the undertaking, but if be
ever comes to Reynoldsvlllo to practice
medicine it would not be advisable for
some of the fellows who bought gro
ceries from him and never paid their
bills to call him In If they were serious
ly Hi. He may look to the Interest of
other grocerymen.

E. W. McMlllen camo very nearly
seeing his saw mill, which is located
about three miles from Reynoldsvlllo, go
up in smoke last Wednesday morning
about five o'c'oek. Mrs, McMlllen was
tho first to discover the flro. Tho
alarm was given and In a very few
minutes the mill hands were ready to
combat with the fire fiend which was
drowned out before much damage was
done. Mr. McMlllen says ho has nine
of tho best men that ever worked on a
saw mill. Ho went Into J. B. Arnolds'
store Wednesday afternoon and said,
"Mr. Arnold, my wife saved my mill
from burning down this morning and I
want tho best dress goods you havo in
the store." Ho got her a, gd dress.
There was no Insurance on the mill and
large amount of lumber which wan close
by. Mr. McMlllen is Inclined to think
that ho had a presentiment of the finan
cial embarrassment that almost visited
him, for If tho fire had gained the
victory It would have lioen a heavy
loss to him. He was at Brookvlllo tho
day before and was worried about some
thing but could not tell what was tho
matter. Somo of his intlmato friends
asked him what was troubling him.
Ho could not bo prevailed upon to stay
at Brookvlllo all night because ho felt
that he ought to go homo, and yet
could give no good reason why ho
should go.
The School Question.
At the election on the Increase two
hundred and eighty-one, of tho three
hundred and forty-two that voted that
day, said build upon tho old location,
and upon this Idea tho Increase was ob
tained. By petition two hundred and
twenty-flvo voters say, build ono central
school building near tho old location.
Unheeded they pass before tho eyes of
our school board, who are of the pooplo,
by the pooplo and for the pooplo, and
there to handle the cash, gathered from
the hard hands of the sons of toll, who
not grudgingly pay in the same, but
desire that it bo judiciously expended.
At present about four of our eight
rooms are much crowded. To save tho
Interest on theono building being erect
ed before it is needed, tho East End citi
zens are willing to allow tho West End
to erect their eight room building, and
got along with sixteen rooms until they
are outgrown, then erect another where
it is most needed.
A petition to the board to this end
Is now being circulated asking tho sig
nature of a number of citizens. It can
bo seen at Walter Spry's store.
