The young men of thn Reynoldsvillo nvenllo Hand cleared fifty dollars out if tho daneo In tho opera house Monday night. The hoys have decided that there is nmro money In giving thn people nn pportunity to trip tho light fantastic too than giving them a good entertain ment. They were out of pocket about thirteen cents on "Old Hlek'ry Farm." While the woman of tho period tniiUes rai'(len nnd rakes flower-beds and lettuce beds till her back aches, It Is disheartening to watch great molis of nbnndoned. profligate chickens wander ing aimlessly around in tho distance, looking up at tho clouds and alTccting to talk ill unit the weather, while they pretend they don't see anybody digging worms and scratching places for them. Frank J. Black, tho enterprising pro prietor or Hotel McConnell, lias lieell using one of the lurgo windows In his hotel as a bulletin to glvu the base bull news every evening since Saturday. This Is rather expensive and Mr. Black may not keep It up very long.

V iiiunlicr of sheep In the Jlorm Set tlement hnvebeen killed by dogs during the past month, and sumo of the farmers are on tlio wnrpntli for ilogs. Henry Iseman had business In that section nnd his bird dog. "Daisy" went with him. Mr. Iseman stopped to talk with a friend and "Daisy" wandered onto forbidden ground and met instant death. Mr. Ise IDiiM does not know w ho killed hisilog,hut he fools very much grieved about It. A free-for-all light was ono of the ex cltements on East Main street just be fore six o'clock Saturday evening. No arrests miido yet. The town can not alford to hire more than one ollleer, F. P. Addlesperger, and It is iuipossiblu for him to nlwavs bo where needed. Ono man should lie on duty every even Ing between tho Arnold block and tho opera houso. An ollleer can II nil some tiling to do in tho East End of town frequently. Hotel MeCoimell 'bus tonm are well fed and have little work to do, conse quently nro "lively" most all tho tinio, Ono morning last week while being driven in a wagon, one of them playful ly kleked-up in front of Hotel Belnap and got its leg over tho tongue of tho wagon nnd both horses started to run hut were stopped In front Hotel Dill man by liclng run Into tho sidewalk Thomas Black nnd Clarence Patterson were on the wagon. Mr. Black jumped nnd sprained his right anklo badly. Otherwise there was no damage done, J. C. Williams, who has been In the photograph business in Reynoldsvillo for several years, has given up that business and moved onto Rev. J. E. Dean's farm, near town, in tho houso formerly occupied by Chns. T. Dean, who has moved his family to Prescott ville. Mrs. Williams has lieen sick for alxiut a year and a half, and Mr. Wil Mams' health will not permit tho close cnnllnomcnt necossary to run his gal lory, and hence tho doctor advised a chnngo for both of them, nnd that is why they have moved to tlio country, Two of their children have the diph thcrla very lwdly. John S. Bnrr, of Pinecreek township, Republican candidate for prothonotary, Ac, was In Reynoldsvillo several days lost week. In 1872 Mr. Barr was elect ed sheriff of Jefferson county. Ho made a good sheriff, but did not mako uny money out of tho ofllco, on tho other hand on account of the hard times and his lenient way of dealing with the people who were In trouble, ho lost considerable money. Ho has nut asked for an office since that time until now. Tho ex-shcrilT has many friends who are working for him and ho feels very sungulno of securing the nomination. Mr. Barr's locks are turning silvery, yot ho is about as spry as any of tho candidates in tho field. St. Marys, one ot Elk county's old towns, Is not noted for many magnificent buildings nor an overabundance of busi ness proclivities, and yet it can boast of several things which our own live town might ho proud of, viz: good streets, a pretty public diamond, surrounded with a good Aug -stone pavement and a lurgo fountain in It and an excellent grand stand from which the brass band of that town woukly play their best music. Hall it Kuul are the business men of St. Marys. Engineers are now at work surveying a now railroad, which, if built, will be from ton to twenty miles long and will bo a benefit to St. Marys, as that will-be the western terminus of the road and the other end will connect with the A. V. at Benno zotto. This rood is not an assured thing yet. Oami Law.

Why not do that in Reynoldsvillo f Of course two or three stores will nut caro to close at that hour unless all closo at 8.n0o'chsk. Try It for tho month of June and woo how it works.

Johnson, of West Reynoldsvillo, had mysteriously disappeared. A llttlo daughter of Chns. lii'iiiel found tho potatoes nnd thorn being no ono around tho little tot" thought some erson had lost them and she carried them home. Thn parents did not know who owned tho potatoes until they saw tho notice In tho ST A It. Ye Faithful Editor. It was an editor, courteous and faith ful, who, on being asked If he had ever seen a hald-heniled woman, replied In this manner: "No, I never did. Nor did I ever sen a woman waltzing around In her shirt sleeves with n cigar In her teeth and dodging into every saloon she saw. Wo liavo never seen a woman go fishing with a hottio in each pocket and sit on t no ilninp ground all (lay and go onio drunk at nlclit. Nor have wu ever seen a woman yunk off her coat, spit on her hands and say she can whip any woman In town. No, God bless her she Isn't built that way." Lamp Exploded. A homo in West Reynoldsvillo nar rowly escaped destruction from the flro llond Inst Thursday. Miss Katio, daughter of Martin Phalon, used a lamp without a gloho on it to heut her curl ing iron for bangs. She left tho lamp burning and went down stairs. Tho hired girl went up stairs soon after and discovered smoko issuing from tho young maiden's room. Tho lamp had exploded and tho lire had already de stroyed Bomo of tlio furniture in tho room and was rapidly spreading. If tho discovery had been a llttlo later It would havo been too late. By quick work tho flames were extinguished and the dumago confined to one room. Business Changes. Several business changes will tuko ptuco In ReynoldHvlllo inside of tho next two weeks. J. C. Williams, tho photograhor, who bus been In business here for a number of years, will move onto Rev. J. E. Dean's farm, near town M. M. Fisher, tho harness muker, will move into tho building m ar Centennial Hall, formerly occupied by Williams gullery. Thomas Mahoney, a butcher, will open a branch shop in tlio room now occupied by Fisher's harness shop, Ed. J. Schultzo, ono of our butchers. Intended going out of that business and fitting up the room now used for a meat shop for a billiard parlor, but he has given this up and will continue running his meat shop as heretofore. Don't Lack Cheek. Tho DuBois people long ago guincd a reputation for "chook" and their ac tions in regard to the excursion to Clearfield ovor tho now road Is only showing that their "cheek" is not get ting any less. Wo would not be sur prised If thoy would tuko hold of the Inaugural train and Invito Hon. S. B, Elliott, Mr. George Melllnger and other ofticiuls to accompany them. The would- be-newspaiier writer who does his best and that Is all that can be expected of any ono to furnish Reynoldsvllle news to the DuBois Courier, but only succeeds in airing a fow personal grievances, has attempted sovorul times to got tho bus! ness men of our town to hold a meeting and make arrangements to go on the ex cursion train, but the business men ot Reynoldsvllle are not so everlastingly "cheoky" and will not do anything until thoy receive invitations from tho proper authorities. Tho invitations wore not received in tinio to issue them before to-day. Tho allotment for Reynolds villo is ono hundred and twenty-five and in order that tho full number may go, it Is desired that all who may receive them and not be able to accept shall send them, together with time card and postal enclosed in envelope, to B, R. & P. R'y, care of M. Lundergan, Du Bols, whon they can be issued aguln to others who can go. It is desired, on tho part of those directing affairs, that all buslnoss won and prominent citizens be Invited that the invitations will al low. A Sewer First. Editor Stab: I don't often tako the liberty to Ixithor you with a communi cation, and as tho sailor's prayer was, wO Lord, I am not one of these fellows thnt Is always asking favors of you, but If you'll save me in this storm, I'll promise not to bother you again." In iHiklng ovor tho columns of tho STAR I saw a notice asking tor sealed bids for invlng Main street, which, I havo no doubt, some people mny think Is just the thing, but let us stop here and look tho field over nnd see If It is tho thing or not, Somo ono may cry out, there Is another fogy heard from, ho would rather go through the mud clear up to his ears than spend ono dollar and en- iy comfort. Not so, my denr renders f thn Star. I am heartily In favor ot mprovlng tho town, and am always ready to keep my end of thn doublo-tne square, but I wish to say just hen;, I nm pposed to starting wrong, I don't want to seo tho cart ahead of tho horse. n tho first place let us do tho one thing needful and all the rest shall lm added thereto. Now then, while I will admit that there must Is; something (lone with our streets, yet I surely think the first step should Is; to drain tho street and then pave it If you think Itcst. Sitii- kwii you pave tho street now unit a Board of Health comes along and says this street must lie drained. Will It bo policy to cut through the paved street to put In a sewer? Tho cry ls.lt will cost list much, wn are not able to do It now. On a rough estimate I think It Is nlsmt 720 feet from tho Arnold hhs-k to tho run, and thirty Inch tiling will cost alxuit M..MI a joint. Thus the tilo would cost M.IHH.OO Now tho iiroiMrty owners will pay for the aforesaid sewer. All It would cost the Borough would Is; across the alleys and streets. Iji.it, but not least, will say if wu are going to dosoinothlng, let us do it right and two rights cannot put us wrong You may pave, you may stone, but as ong as you have no sewer to carry olf the water, you never will have a sure foundation to build on. A Tax-I'aykr. Wm. Conrad. William Conrod, who has been a rest dent of Reynoldsvillo nl most a quarter of a century, died at his home on Jackson street nt eight o'clock Monday morning. Mr. Conrod was Isirn In Berks county, Pa., In Januury, 1 Kl i, and was in his eightieth year when ho died Over fifty years ago ho moved onto a farm In tho neighborhood of Paradlso Settlement where ho lived until ho came to Reynoldsvillo. When ho first i-iiino hero ho assumed proprietorship of tho St. Charles Hotel which stood where Dr. King's residenco now stands. Ho had n family of fourteen children by his first wifo. She died ovor four years ago and four of tho children have boon laid in tho tomb. A little over two years ago ho was married to Mrs. Mc Callister, of Alleghany, who survives him. Mr. Conrod was apparently in his usual health Sunday, but a stroko of paralysis in the evening was too much for his constitution which had been weaken by tho storms of many winters nnd on tho following morning death gained tho victory. Tho deceased had boon a member of tlio Lutheran church for many years, though not regular attender. Tho funeral services will Iks held at his luto residence at (1.00 o'clock this morning und his remains will bo burled in tho cemetery near Ben. Yohc's farm. Will Wear Badges. Hereafter nil insK.ctors for tho Oil City Fuel Supply Company will wear badges when around lnsccting meters. Tho badge is a nicklo one ubout tho sine of a policeman's badge and It has the name of tho company engraved on it, and it is also numbered. U. G. Schcuf maker's badge Is No. 07. Tho company deem this advisable to protect their patrons from villainous fellows who can go to houses, especially is it easily dono in lurgo places, and represent them selves as employees of tho company sent out to inspect meters, when tholr real purposo is to get an opportunity, if pos sible, to steal at that time or else get the run of tho house for futuro uso Thero is one case on record whoro stranger wont to a houso in a city with a monkey-wrench In his hand und said ho hud como to inspect the muter and tho unsuspicious lady let him in and ho committed a fiendish crlmo. As tho company has issuod tho edict that tho ln-pector must wear his liadgo, if you don't know Mr. Scheafnocknr, make him show his budge before he can gain an entrance into your houso. In this day and age whon the imps of the nether regions stalk through our land in broad daylight, wo consldor that the Oil City Fupply Co. have adopted a good plan to protect their patrons from Impostors. Bob Burdotte bids us remember that good things in this world are alwayi cheapest. Spring water costs less than whiskey, a box of cigars will buy two or three Bibles; a state election costs moro than a revival of religion; you can sloop ovory Sabbath morning in church for nothinc but a nap in a Pullman car costs you J2; the circus takes fifty cents. the theater costs you tl, but tho mis sionary box Is grateful tor a penny; the race horse scoops In $2,000 the first day while the church bazaar lasts a week works twenty-five or thirty of the best women In America nearly to death and comet out $40 In debt. THE BOYS IN BLUE. ANOTHER MEMORIAL DAY FIT- T1WQLY OBSERVED. Sunday Service Largely Attended A Large Parade Yesterday. For jteaw It hm boon customary In Reynoldnvilte to hold union memorial rmrrlees en the Sunday before Decora- oit Dny., and tho pastors of town am nrl ted In turn to deliver tho sermon. his year Rev.

The church was tastily eroratcd with stars nnd stripes nnd owcrs. Tho singing was good. Although It has been mBiiy years ince thn smoko of hnttle has cleared away, yet tho noblo work done on the battle field by our bravo boys has not been erased from thn minds nnd hearts tho citizens of this free land. Memorial Days como nnd go anil tho men, women nnd children, who know not by oxMrlonoo, tho hardships of sleeping in tho cold with only a blanket rnpied around the shivering Issly, or long march through mud and slush, or facing tho enemy In a hard battle join with thn remanent of that Gram! Army In helping to strew flowers over tho graves of departed comrades, nnd bus pay homage to them for their oyalty to their country. Tho citizens if Reyiiohlsville always turn out well on Decoration Dav, and yesterday was no exception to tlio other days, as a urge crowd participated in tho simile. Thero worn six hundred In lino nnd our hundred others went to the in me- y who did not march. Them were nt east n thousand people In the cemetery, Tho parade formed on Main street ns follows: Sunday schools; Reynold villi; Keystone band: Jr. O. V. A. M.; O. S. of A.; O. L. A.

C. pussed through and gathered the flowers from Sunday school children. They marched around tho cemetery and came back near the gates where a monument is reared in memory of thn unknown dead nnd a halt was called und Marshal, Joseph Shaffer, had charge of tho ex ercises which woro as follows: Singing by choir, "God Ssed tho Right;" a short address by Commander Major Epler; music by Proscottvillo Cornet band; prayer by Chaplain Wilder Boyles; Miss Lizzie Binney sang a solo, entitled, "Tread softly, a soldier's sleeping thero," and tho choir joined in tho chorus; short addresses by comrades, Samuel Sutter, Cupt. T. C. Reynolds, Frank K. Mullen and Wilder Boyles. The entire assembly miido tho hills and valleys ring as they joined in singing, My roiititry' 'tis of llieo, Hwi'i-t lioiif of lils-iiy, (if tin-. I kIiik: fiioiil win-re my fathers illeil! liiind of the I'lltfrim's prlile! from every inoninitlii side l,it freedom rinif! The firing squad, which was composed of six Sons of Veterans, fired the salute, Rev. E. T. Derr pronounced the bene diction and tho old soldiers proceeded to scatter flowers on tho graves of their departed comrades and tho remainder of tho procession fell In lino und marched back to town. Town Council's Doings. Sjieclal meeting of tho Town Coucll was hold last Tuesday evening and tho business transacted was to bond tho borough for $.1,000. The following resolution passed unanimously: Iliwilrtil, That wo issue couiton bonds to the amount of $0,000 in sums of $100 each, bearing interest at the rate of 5 nor cent per annum.

We bcllevo It is the intention of Council to pavo Main street from tho Iron bridge to Presbyterian church before they stop, but nothing has been done yet in the matter. The Council have decided, as stated in the STAR two weeks ago, to pave from Hotel Belnap to Arnold block. W. W. Crissman Withdraws. Lindsey, May 29, 1893. To tho Republicans of Jefferson coun ty: I tuko this method of announcing to my many friends that I have with drawn my name as a candidate tor the nomination of county treasurer at this time. I do this because my business en gugomcnts are such that I cannot spend the tlino to give the county anything like a thorough canvass. I am deeply grateful to my many friends for their support whilo I was a candidate. I wish success to the nominee and will do all In my power to Insure his election. In withdrawing I have the pleasure of knowing that I have many warm friends who would cordially support mo should I be a candidate in the future. I remain yours, W. W. Crissman PERSONALS. 3.
