Tho cai'ienters on tho Ixw (i rade Dlv. hnvo been taken off, ono man laid off at tho mnchlno shop hero, and the man who gives tho engines their supplies hero has boon taken off and tho cur lnHicctor Is attending the supply house. Home of tho people living In the nelghlxit'hood of tho Syphrlt church claim that there Is a panther roaming around there. Tho carnivorous quad ruped has made Its presence known only by Its midnight cries, no one bos mot tho flory-cycd animal yet. In all probability It Is an hallucination. Wo mentioned lost woek that two young men fought about a girl they were both "smitten" on, btit were mis taken as to causo of fight. They had boon to a dance tho night before and had somo trouble about tho right to a place on the dancing floor, which was the cause of the fracas Tuesday night. Hose Co.

They gave free ex hibitions and oonoorto on the streets and passed the hat. If thore is no law requiring a fine from such follows, thore is certainly a proviso for blockading tho streets and sidewalks.

Whon the family got up in tho morning thoy found that tho lock had boon broken off the door. If Mr. McKoe had kopt qulot a little longer the Intruder would have boon In the house. Frank Sutter accidentally knocked a little daughter of Milton Sohlablg's down with his bicycle while riding on Main street a few days ago and broke one of the small bones of her left arm, and In a few days afterward ran over the same gontleman's dog. Frank was arrested when he ran over the dog, but as the Burgoss could find no law that provided tor the case, he was discharged without a fine. It Is a wondor there has not been numerous accidents to chronicle about small boys being injured by bicyeles on Main street. The boys are so daring. Two or three of them will stand on the street until the bicycle rldor Is almost onto them and then perhaps they will start to run in different directions about the time the bicycle rider turns out for them and one of the boys will run in front of the wheel. If a boy happens to get run down when doing such tricks he is not deserving of any pity. The Republicans of Jefferson county held a special primary election on Saturday to nominate one person as a candidate for the office of prothonotary and clerk of courts. There were two candidates in the field, J. G. Allen, of Warsaw township, and W. D. Clark, of Brockwayvllle. A committee appointed by the County Chairman, E. C. Burns, will meet in Reynoldsvllle at 2.00 p. H. to-day to compute the returns and declare the result. The committee appointed are: F. A. Weaver, of Brookvllle; Geo. W. Weiss, of Punz sutawney; A. R. Chapin, of Brockway vllle; L. A. Hays, Wlnslow township; C. D. Rowan, of Oliver township. There is very little doubt but that W. D. Clark will be declared the candidate for above mentioned office. Both got Frightened. Frank J. Black, proprietor of Hotel McConnnll, owns a spirited pony which Is hard to ride and It is seldom ladles ride It. Thursday Miss Annie Black got onto the pony to take a ride and just as she got Into the saddle thn stood frightened and gave a llttlo jump, then Miss Annie got frightened and jumped and sprained ono of hor ankles so badly that she rested a few days from the responsible position she holds as mis tress of the hotel for hor brother. Not Ooing to Resign. Last weeks' Issue of the Brockway vllle Ilrctmt contained an article headed, "An important change," which was in sulwtance that Hon. S. B. Elliott, gen eral managor of the llell, Lewis Ac Yates C. M. Co. at this place and Pii Hols, and the Rochester and Pittsburg Coal and Iron Co., which Includes thn mines at Adrian, Walston, Eleanors and Beechtrtie, Is to retire from this re sponsible Misltlon at an early date. When Interviewed by a representative of tho STAR, Mr. Elliott said it was news to him, that he had no Intention of resigning, but does expect to take a six months' vacation as soon as arrange ments can bn made for It. r- Falsa Report. The scandalous rcMrt that was circulated at this plueo several months ago about a young man's tmrbarotis act with a young lady at Punxsutawnoy, has proven to lie a base lie, without any foundation. Thn father of thn He deserves nothing less than thn full extent of tho law for tho attempt to ruin tho character of two young iieopln. If there Is anything that is branded with thn trado mark of hades, It Is the contemptlbleness of an effort to lie smirch a man or woman's reputation. Much attempts are generally the off spring of tho greon-oyod monster, ir an effort on the part of thoso who have already lost their self resiect to drag others to their own level. Formerly Night Dispatcher. Arthur II. Collins, who was a night dispatcher in the A. V. R'y oflloo at this plueo for some time, but who left here a year ago, died at the homo of his purcnt at St. Petersburg, Pa., Aug. 8th, at 7.00 p. m., after an Illness of ten days. Mr. Collins resigned his position as dispatcher on account of poor health and after a two months' rest ho wont to work for the National Transit Co. and was working at Bradford and caught a heavy cold which ended his llfo so suddonly. I. M. Hoch, one of the operators at this place, attended the funeral as a representative of tho Low Grade telegraph ojiorators. The Transit boys bought a very pretty casket and the floral offerings were beautiful. He Killed the Cat. One day last woek Frank Rndgors and his wife were very badly frightened. Tholrbaby was not fooling very well and Mrs. I lodgers gave it a dose of paregoric and put it to bod. Some tlmo afterwards she wont Into tho room whore the baby was slooptng and found a strange cat, as thoy do not own a feline, sitting close to the baby's face. The mothor screamed, Frank ran Into the room, caught the cat by the hind logs and knocked Its brains out against a post on the porch. Grandpa Rodgcrs was there at the time and ho dispatched Frank after a doctor, In the mean time all attempts to got tho baby awake wore fruitions. When the M. D. arrlvod he discovered the only thing wrong was a little too much paregoric Accepted the Call. It is a well known fact that since the first of lost April the Presbyterian flock at this place has been without a shepherd, Rev. Furbay at that time resigning his pastorate of the congre gation. The Presbyterians have been on qui vlve ever since until Wednesday night of last weok. At that time the church was largely represented at a congregational mooting and a unani mous call was given to Rev. H. R. Johnston, of Latronla, noar Pittsburg. On Saturday word was received that Rev. Johnston will accept the call. It is expected that he will begin his work here about the middle of Septem ber. The congregation think they have made an excellent choice, and that Rev. Johnston will do good work at this place. He has a wife and one little child. Don't Tie to Shade Trees. People who have horses in their charge should be very careful where they tie thorn. A gentleman who knows better, but was thoughtless about It, tied his team to one of the pretty Bhade trees in front of the M. E. par sonage one day last weok and the horses pooled the bark off in several places, one strip was three toet long. There is a fine of 120.00 for Just such acts as de stroying or damaging trees. It is often carelessness on the part of the parties who tie the horses, but there Is no pro viso for carelessness. In the case above cited the gentleman may be thankful If the trustees of the church do not come onto him for damage. We live in a section where trees are plonty, but when a man gets a pretty tree In front of his house that is getting to be of some good, he does not want it destroyed just for a hitching post. Never tie a horse to a i shade tree. PER SON XLS. Jim Hoffman Sundaynd in Brookvllle. H. 8. Bolnap was at Warren, Pa., on Sunday. Mrs. Jon. T. Guthrie Is visiting friends In Ohio. Harry H.

Onoe upon a time, sinoe the Falls Creek Herald was established, the editor hied himself through the rural districts hardby bis town with a view of increasing bis circulation, and while at a farm he strolled through the orchard with the farmer, who was explaining the variety of apples, and a Lincolnshire lamb the farmer had just received from Chester county, attracted their atten tion. The lamb's fleece was about eight inches long. The farmer ran his fingers through to show the Ilerald editor what fine long wool it had on and Bangert said: "Oh! my Lord, what long hair that has on it. That should be cut off." When Sykes, Allla & Moorhouse move to Falls Creek the Herald man wUl want them to buy their wool at the tannery. Brick Pavement E. L.

CAPITAL OF CLEARFIELD CO. A Pretty Town Beautiful View Mys terious Cave. Last Thursday morning W.C. Elliott, editor Vnhtntf r, and his office force, E. Will Greene and L. L. Oourloy, and ye editor of Star and office force, Roman E. Koehlor and Harry Trultt, laid asldo thn cares of the print shops for a day and visited Clearfield. Thn serines and typos bonrdnd tho 7.10 train with P. II. Hannon, engineer, and Barney D. Lavery, conductor. The engineer had Just gonn to work aftor a two wnnks' vacation and he made a fast run to Falls Creek. Will Coax, the brakeman, says it Is a "cannon ball" train between Reynoldsvllle and DuBois. The morn Ing was a delightful one for a ride down tho Anderson Creek Valley. From Rocton to Cnrwonsvlllo there Is enough pIcturoHqunnoss for those fond of barren mountains, dotted with leafless and limbless treesto please the most fastidious. There Is signs of life and and verdure from Curwcnsvlllo to Clearfield. When wo entered Clearfield wo found quietness eneamjied all around tho little city, oven having full sway In Its main thoroughfares. Wo visited the throe printing offices, Journal, l'uhlir. fiplrlt end Jltpiiblintn. Dro. McQuown.of the Jinirnnl, was out of town, Goodlnndor of tho Hrpitbllmn, seemed to have some pressing business to hsik after, but Mutt. Savagn, ex-prlnclpal of tho Clear field schools for a number of years, ex county suiHirintondont of Clearfield, now the genial, hustling editor of the I'ulilir. fifiirit, found time to show us the town In Its evory day Iifo. Bro. Savage hired a two horso carrlngo, bought a water-melon, and the throe married men of thn party accompanied him to sovoral hill-top views of the town, while tho slngln members of thn party were having a jolly time In tho park with the Clearfield maidens that wore attending a Sunday sehtKil plnnio. Thore are fow places, if any, whore a more beautiful view greets tho eye as ono stands upon one of tho eastern hills and looks down tin tho well shaded town with Its pretty paved streets. Thore is plenty of room to build a largo city, and from tho way tho town Is now awaking from it lethargy and getting manufactures within hor borders, it Is only a matter of time until their streets will be filled with busy humanity and the hum of Industry will bo heard far up tho valley towards Curwensvllle. Ono mistake thoy have mado Is to have two boroughs of what should bn one. The I'uhlie Sjnril Is an oxcollont paper, yot we have wondered what boomed the circulation of the paper, but learned the secret while at Clear field Thursday. Savago Is such a gonial fellow that ho draws people to him like sugar does flies. If Clearfield doos not boom it will not bo Matt. Savage's fault. Among the hotels of Clearfiold we found Hotel Windsor a flrst-clasa house, furnlshod elegantly and has all the latest improvements. It is a 12.00 a day house. Clearfiold Is an old town and got its present name from the fact that travel ing to the town from the east it was all a wilderness until the top of the hill was reached and thn entire town and river greeted the weary traveler's eye. It was formerly an Indian village. In the hills west of town is an unexplored cave. Men, with ropes around them, have ventured in three or four hundred foot but found no end to the mysterious cave. When the town was an Indian village the red men had large quantities of gold and sliver ore, but would not tell the white man where they got It, and some people connect the cave with the Indians and their gold. Clearfiold can knock Reynoldsvllle out when a pretty town Is the consideration, but for business our town is away ahead. "Beauty is only skin deep," you know. Town Council. A special meeting of the town coun cil was held at Burgess John M. Hays' office Monday evening. The first busi ness was to appoint a Board of Health. The following gentlemen were appoint ed to look after the sanitary condition of the districts named: First dlstriot, from west borough line to Fourth street, M. J. Farrell.

Fourth district, from Tenth street to east borough line, W. K. Marshall. Fifth district, all the borough on south side of Soldier Run, L. D. Klein hans. The sanitary sample law from State Board of Health was referred to the ordinance committee to add too and take from It what would be suitable for our borough. Council decided to complete the work of paving Main street between Hotel Bolnap and the Arnold block by extending the paving in to the sidewalks. It was expected at first that the property holders would pave from the sidewalks out to connect with the work done by the borough. A. O'Donnell will furnish the lumber and the Burgess and Street Commis sioner will do the work by the day and will hire all help necessary. Men's heavy Congress shoes 11.25 at Robinson's.
