LOCAL LACONICS.
A Yearling.
For one year wo have endeavored to
make the Star Interesting nnd (five
our readers all the news. Doubtless tn
that time we hare said some things that
would have been lietter not to have said,
and ietl)Hw omitted news, unintention
ally, that should have lx'en puhllHhed.
In gathering news Items we have paid
no attention to condition of life from
whence the new comes, rich or poor,
lalxirer or merchant, sulseiilor or non
subscriber, all were served alike so far
as we were able to do so. Of course we
have not pleased everybody, but were
familiar enough with the newspaper
business before assuming the Hsition as
an editor to know that that Is mi Im
possibility. As long as a news Item
strikes some one else It Is alright, but
when It comes home that Is a ''horse of
another color." If a paper does not
publish all the news It Is "no good."
and if It dews some one will (ret cross
about Items which concern them. Our
subscription list Is evidence that we are
pleasing a large number of people. The
STAR entered Into tho journalistic Held
last May on somewhat of a venture, as
it was a llttlo doubtful whether tho
town would support two paper. Wo
were not disappointed In tho supposi
tion for the flint year at least, for wo
have been able to live and keep our
debts down, by hard work and economy.
We have learned a few lessons by ex
perience during: our first year which we
expect to profit by In our second year.
We will try to make tho Star mora
Interesting In tho coming year than it
was in tho past ono. Wo hope tho
STAR has become such a wclcomo
visitor that all tho old subscrlliers will
renew and many new ones give us their
names.

Our morning friend, the DuBois Cour
ier, says: "Down in Reynoldsville the
borough council authorized a tux on
cats as well as dogs. An unusual de
parture on tho foe line." Wbothor, or
no, the above was written for the pur
pose of the Courier pun-stor gotting in
his usual number of puns, or ho was
really in good faith and believes that
Reynoldsville people have to pay a tax
on cats, we wot not, and yet why are
not cats about as taxable as dogs ? The
council have not authorized such a tax.
His Time His Expired.
E. T. McGaw, who was clothed with

been fabricated by some unscrupulous
fellow.
Good Band.
The Keystone band of this place was
at Rldgway last Wednesday and was the
finest appearing and furnished tho best
music of any of the six bauds tn the
parade. Our town has just reason to lo
proud of the Keystone band. If the
boys keep up tho practice, as It Is prae
tleo that wins, they can play as nicely
as the Great Western In tho by and by.
K. of M. Organized.
A Tent of tho Knights of tho Macca
bees was organized tn tho K. of P. hall

about twenty-five charter momliers. E.

mander of the Maccabees and also asso
ciate editor of the ftrit, was present and
delivered an excellent sjieech on tho
good qualities of tho order. Those who

good orator.
Two Store Rooms.
Tho room just vacated by Alexander's
drug store has been re-painted nnd
ro-pniiered. An archwny has been put
In between that room and the ono now
occupied by Hell Bros.' clothing store,
and this firm will occupy lsith store
rooms. They have always carried a
largo lino of goods, but will now In
crease their stock. They expect, when
finished, to hnvo as fine rooms and large
stock of clothing as can bo found In the
county. Bell Bros, nro live, energetic
business men, and aro doing a good
business here.
New Basin.
A fountain was put In several years
ago on tho piece of ground between
Supt. Rumsey's office and the A. V. R'y
passenger station. Thero was no basin
made to catch and carry olT tho water
and, consequently, it was not often in
operation. Tho A. V. masons built a
good stono basin last week nnd a wasto
piiio was attached. When tho ground
is again cleaned up, tho fountnln In
operation and tho flowers In bloom the
passengers can sock tho shady side of
tho depot while waiting for trains and
watch tho spray as it sparkles In tho
sunlight.
A New Church.
Tho St. Peters Evangelical Lutheran
church in tho Puradlso settlement, was
dedicated last Sunday. Rev. J. Pollln
borgar, of Loochburg, Pa., deliv
ered tho dedlcatorlul sermon. This
Is a neat llttlo brick cased
church with a seating capacity of
200. Tho church cost 91,700, which was
all raised boforo last Sunday but $.'100;
that was soon raised Sunday and tho
church was dedicated free of debt.
When it Is considered that thero nro
not ovor fifteen members In that local
ity It can bo seen that they hud courago
to oven attempt to build a church thero.
Such a neat church Is not found in all
tho rural districts.
Council Meeting.
Tho town council held their regular
monthly mooting last Monday evening.
Tho Burgess and all tho councllmen
wero present and tho following business
was transacted. A etition was pre
sented asking for a sidewalk on Brad
ford street from Pleasant Avonuo to
Borough lino. It was granted. John
Dlllman, proprietor of Hotel Dillman,
askod for privilege of building an ad
dition to his hotel. The request was
not granted. Harry II. Mincer, the
night policeman, handed in his resigna
tion, which is to take effect May 8th.
It was accepted. Horeuftora policeman
will bo on duty pay days and on special
days. Bills to the amount of 9132.40
wore ordered to be paid. The tax to bo
levied this year is to bo the same as last
yoar. Borough two mills, water two
mills and bond one-half mill. On mo
tion the Borough will borrow three
hundred dollars for six months.
At Ridgway.
The I. O. O. F. seventy-fourth anni
versary hold at Ridgway lost Wednes
day was a grand success. In the first
place the county scat of Elk was a good
place to colebrate the anniversary, and
then the people showed their apprecia
tion of the honor by profusely decorating
publio buildings, business houses and
private dwellings. The day was a
pretty one. About six hundred Odd
Fellows, six brass bands and one drum
corps paraded through soveral of the
main streets. After the parodo thoy
gathered in tho court house, and listened
to the speakers of tho day. The Reyn
oldsvillo lodge, No. 824, had the largest
representation in the parade with the
exception of Johnsonburg lodge, which
had only nine miles to travel to got
thore. Our lodge mode the best ap
pearance of any in tho parade. With
the largo attendance from ho re, the
fine looking men and the bust baud In
the parade, Reynoldsvillo has reason to
bo proud of the representation from
here.
Death from Childbirth.
Mrs. William G. White, nee Belinda
Bennett, was born In Camlxirne, Cornr
wall, England, February lfith, 185.r,
died on Thursday, April 27, 1803, aged
.18 years, 2 months and 12 days. Win.
O. White and Belinda Bennett wore
married In England on the 10th of Au
gust, 1870, and emigrated to America
May 11, 1882, and came to Roynoldsvlllo
where they have since resided. The hus
band nnd seven children, the oldest not
twelve yet and the youngest throo hours
old when the mother dlod, are left to
mourn for tho departed. Mrs. White
was a sister of John Bennett, of Hill
street. Tho funeral services were held
In the M. E. church at 2:110 P. M. Sun
day, conducted by Rev. P. J. Slnttery.
The church was crowded, many people
being unable to get Into tho church.
Tho deceased was a member of the
Daughters of St. George, and tho hus
band Is a member of tho Sons of St.
George nnd tho Knights of tho Golden
Eagle, also tho leader of the Preseott
vlllo Cornet band. All three of the
above named orders and the members
of tho Preseottvillo and Reynoldsville
bands turned out in hodys. Members
of the Preseottvillo band acted as pall
bearers. A beautiful pillow and anchor
of sweet smelling flowers wero tokens of
honor and from tho Daughters of St.
George and tho Preseottvillo band.
Tho pillow was from the ladles. Five
hundred and fifty people viewed tho
remains In tho church. Tho coffin was
lowered beneath tho sod of Beulnh.
Changed His Mind.
Albert Pangon, a barber, who had
licen in Punxsiitawney nlxntt two weeks,
attempted to commit suicide in his
room ut the Dinger bouse of that place
last Friday morning by cutting his
neck in two places. Ho also cut his
wrists and legs. Tho man camo very
nearly making a successful job out of it,
and doubtless would have bled to death
had he not been found when he was and
physicians called in. Trouble, was tho
only reason given for tho rash net.
When his vein's wero almost emptied
of his live's blood, tho fellow had
changed his mind and was not anxious
to "go hence," and when tho physicians
arrived nnd one of them asked him if ho
wanted to live ho promptly answered In
tho affirmative. To tho next question
from tho physician, "shall we do all wo
can to save your life ?" the, a few hours
before, would-be-a-corpso unhesitating
ly said "yes sir." The man or woman
who seek an eseapo from their troubles
by the suicido route will find, when too
late, that this world with all tho trou
bles which havo entered into thoir
lives and in most instances creatures
of their own make Is a real paradise
compared to tho region they will In
hnbit for a billion of years, and then
some. What fools many of the human
family do make of themselves.
Do You Destroy Your Votes.
Little Susie McKornan has sent In
twelvo hundred votes to tho Pittsburg
Time for her ex-school teacher, Miss
Llzzio Burrls. What do you do with
your Time'' votes? If you destroy them
would it not bo a good idea to save
them nnd thus swell tho number of
votes for somo school teacher? It Is a
sure thing that all tho teachers who aro
receiving votes will not go to tho
World's Fair on tho magnanimous olTor
made by ono of tho best daily papers of
Pittsburg Time. Thero are three or
four from this place who are being
voted for. Would It not bo a good
thing to select out tho teacher who has
received the highest votes so far from
Reynoldsvillo peoplo nnd from this on
cast all votes for thut person, thus
making It possible for ono of our
teachers to get to tlp World's Fair free.
When making1 a choice of tho class of
peoplo who would bo taken to tho Fair
at the expense of the Time, we know of
no other class of peoplo who ure more
deserving of it, save the country edi
tors, than tho Instructors of "Young
Americas." The man or woman who
spends five days in a .wock, five months
in a year in a school room with forty,
fifty or sixty doar, docile, angelic boys
and girls, deserves at least a free rldo.
Feminine Determination.
When the south-bound passenger
train pulled into Ridgway last Wednes
day evening with only two coaches and
the depot platform was crowded with
passengers enough to fill four coaches,
the crowd become unmanageable, their
only thought was that they must get on
that train regardless of how unseemly
tholr actions were in gotting there.
Before the train stopped they tried to
got on, but, fortunately, no one was in
jured. In justice to the men be it said,
the women were the reckless ones this
tlmo. With their teeth set and an "I
will" expression, oblivious of all else
just then, thoy got on board tho train.
The conductor and brakeman tried to
stay tho feminine tide of determination
long enough to allow soveral passengers
to got off, but the conductor was "treed"
on tho railing between the two coaches
and watched the women get on his
train.
Sealed Proposals.
From Monday, May 8th, until Tues
day, May Kith, sealed proiosals will be
received at C. F. Hoffman's jewelry
store for tho ereotlon of a two-story
brick building on the corner of Main
and Fourth streets, Reynoldsvillo, Pa.
The privilege of rejecting any or all
bids will be reserved.

"Old Hick'ry Farm.''
Tho Juvcnilo hand of Reynoldsville
decided to play "Old Hick'ry Farm,"
a New England comedy, at this place
about tho middle of May with H.
Eugene Phillips, of Clarion, as tho star,
"Old Zeklel Fortune." Mr. Phillips
came here lost Wodncsdny night and
wanted to present the play Saturday
night. Tho homo talent required was
selected and they began rehearsing
and on Saturday tho comedy was played
before a fair-sized audlenco at tho ojxira
house. All who took part did remark
ably well, and especially so when the
length of tlmo for preparation Is con
sidered. There aro numerous shows
traveling to-day that do not give as
good a performance as that of "Old
Hick'ry Farm" by homo talent. The
comedy was so well received that it was
played again on Monday night to a fair
audience. Both evonlngs tho weather
was unfavorable for tho entertainment.
As tho proceeds wero for thn benefit of
the Juvenile band tho citizens did not
patronize It as they should havo done.
Following was tho cast of characters:
Zeklel Fortune, a New Englnud farmer,
H. Eugeno Phillips; Larry McKeegan,
an Irish Alderman, Chos. F. Watson;
Gilbert Dark wood, handsome and un
scrupulous, Chns. Klschartz; 'Riuh Skin
ner, a miser, Frank Alexander; Jack
Nelson, Fortune's adopted son, W. J.
Weaver; Detective Rankin, John Den
ny; Bill Tracy and George Jones, officers
of tho law, Vincent Reynolds and Chns.
Dovcrsplke; Jessie Fortune, "pretty and
innocent," Miss Lllllo McCrelght; Mrs.
Prlscllln Dodgo, "tho wlddy," Miss
Minnie Ewlng.
The seven lending characters wero
tho farmer, which was done almost to
perfection by Phillips, and tho Irish
Alderman was as well mimicked by
Watson as if he had just come from tho
Isle of the sea; Kishartz acted tho vil
lain well, but wo hardly suspected that
Frank Alexander would mnko such a
good miser. Weaver played tho lover
and friend naturally, while Miss Mc
Crelght gracefully played her part.
Miss Ewlng, "tho widdy," enptured tho
alderman about as cunningly as a
widow could havo accomplished the
act on a renl stage of life.
Whilo preparations wero being mndo
for tho after-piece Monday night Miss
May Iseman entertained the audience
with several of her delightful songs.
. . .
Giive them the Limit.
Tho Board of Tradn of Reynoldsvillo
has a number of committees appointed,
among which is a "committee on pro
motion of trado and protection of mer
chants," and "It Is tho duty of the
committee to see that our laws are
enforced In regard to hawking and
peddling In our town and vicinity, and
to do everything in their power to
foster and protect tho trade interests of
Reynoldsvillo."
The Borough law requires that
peoplo who canvass the town shall pay
a llcenso of thrco dollars per day, and
every person "desiring to begin a trans
cient retail business in said Borough for
tho salo of any goods, wares or mer
chandise, whatsoever, whether tho same
shall bo represented or hold forth to be
bankrupt, assignees or about to quit
business, Ac, shall take out a license
for tho same from tho Chief Burgess or
President of the Council and pay to said
officer for tho uso of said Borough a sum
not less than twenty-five dollars per
month, nor more than ono hundred dol
lars per month, at the discretion of
the Burgess or president of Council."
If tho Burgess does not assist tho
committee above mentioned, it is
hard for them to successfully perform
tholr duties. True the Borough needs
money and if tho full extent of tho law,
one hundred dollars, was charged to
transcient retail establishments they
would give tho town the go-by. How
about the business men who stay hore
all the time and pay thoir various taxes
every yoar.holp keep up the churches and
feed and clothe their families here, are
thoy not worthy tho best protection
possible, makes no difference what
tholr business may be? Therefore,
what is twenty-live dollars to the
Borough compared to what our business
men pay annually? And again, who
is the better off after a transcient es
tablishment has boon In town a week or
ton days? We suggest that all trans
cient retail business men pay the full
extent of the law, one hundred dollars,
and that the coffers of the borough be
replenished by fines gathered from the
drunken individuals who make "Rome
Howl" frequently in our town.
It Was Almost Impassible.
The street commissioner, Jacob Hen
nlnger, has been trying to muke the ex
treme East End of Main street passable.
The street was in such a condition that
a team could not get through with an
ordinary loud. Four hundred and
seventy loads of stone and gravel have
boon dumped on the street for a distance
of about two squares, commencing neur
the watering trough at Cold Spring
Hollow. There are other parts of
Main street that are In yery bad con
dition, but comment Is unnecessary.
Quito a number of property holders are
willing to pay liberally to have Main
street paved, while others are not the
least discomforted by the present con
dition of the streets.
Smashed His Toe.
R. D. Beer has been limping around
the post week, which was caused by a
heavy piece of iron falling on his light
foot and smashed one of his toes.
