Miss Lillian McCrelght, daughter of John McCrelght, of Paradise, and sis ter of Dr. J. S. McCrelght, of this place, was married at Limestone, N. Y., Saturday, Sep. 2nd, to John Qulnlan, a plumber of DuBols. The young couple left DuBols Saturday afternoon without heralding their intentions broadcast and were united in marriage as above stated. Miss Lillian was well known In Reynoldsvllle where she has spent much of her time in the past three years. Miss McCrelght was to have been married to a lawyer of Danville the latter part of this month. Prepa rations were being made for the wedding. Horace G. Mlllor, senior editor of the Punxsutawney JNVu-d, must certainly have married a popular young lady. This is the only way we can account for the royal reception given them on the return from their wedding trip, for it is foolishness to think so much expendi ture of "filthy lucre" would be lavished upon a country editor as Bro. Miller tells about in his modest long article in last weeks' News. The friends were wise, however, in buying leather seated chairs, as it may be a long time before he gets new chairs, unless a tidal wave of religion swoops over this country and the people who take a paper two or three years and then refuse to take it out of the office or pay for it, get con verted. When the time comes, we fear, that all people will pay their subscrip tions and stingy people quit borrowing their neighbor's paper before they read it themselves, an angel will stand with one foot on the land and one on the sea and say, "Time was, but Time Is no more." Not Welcome. Mike Shtngtobeck has a team of horses, that would not win much of a medal for beauty or fatness, which af forded considerable amusement for some of the citizens in West Reynoldsvllle one day last week. The nags were meandering around at will and they walked into the machine shop and watched tho machinery run awhile, but it was evident, when discovered by one of the proprietors, that they were un welcome visitors, and they were "fired." They crossed the street to loaf at Wm. Burge's grocery store, but he met them at the door with a club and forbade them entrance Into his store. Not be ing entirely discouraged at this treat ment the "poor" pair decided to go to Ross' bar-room and call on Bert Wil liams. One of the horses had pushed open the screen door and was almost Into the room, its "pard" close at its heels, when they were demanded to stop and back out. The horses by this time were discouraged and they came up Main street with their heads and tails down as if they thought this an unfriendly world. Surprised their Pastor. Rev. E. T. Dorr, pastor of the Baptist church, and wife returned last Thurs day from a months' vacation. The con gregation wanted them to feel that they were welcomod home agntn, and on Fri day evening about sixty members of the church, and a few other friends, with well filled baskets called at the parson age. It was not Intended as a surprise party, but the Reverend had not been notified of tho Intention of his members and when they arrived at the parsonage the pastor was absent and when he came homo and found the jolly party he was greatly surprised. The evening was spent In talking, singing and eating the good things tho visitors had carried with them. The evening was pleasant ly spent, the people left delighted that they had visited the pastor, and Rev. Dorr and wlfo were happy because of tho visit, as they took It as a token of love and friendship. A Tongue War. A couple of families at Camp Run had somo difficulty ovor a matter which resulted In a terrible battle with tongues. The hills and valleys echoed and revorbratod with the sound of battle and most all tho citizens of tho hamlet were out to enjoy the first real tongue war ever fought there. The language used by tho warriors, which was a man and woman, was foul enough to make respectability blush with shame, at least that Is the report of those who heard It. It is claimed that threats were made by tho man to do harm and he was required to appear before Esq. E. Noff Saturday and give ball in the sum of 1200 to keep the peace and appear at tho next term of court. Those who thought it "as good as a circus" as they listened to the war, will not think it so much fun if they have to loaf around on the hard seats of the court house for a weok as witnesses. Ripped His Pants. It is almost an impossibility to embar rass Dr. J. B. Noalo, but he was placed In a predicament one day last week which really dtsconcorted the doctor. He was in the Boechwoods and called at the camp where Alex. Rlston and Neal McCombs and their wlvos were enjoy ing a few days camping. Doc. sat down on a log In front of tho camp. About the time he was going to get up ho found a sharp knot in the log and also that his trousers were not In as good condition as thoy wore when he sat down. Paul Rlston gave Doc. three or four pins and by using them to a good advantage he was able to got into tho shanty where a needle and thread was furnished him. After putting In a num ber of stitches the physician could ap pear before the ladles again. Council Meeting. The town council held their regular monthly meeting at Thos. II. Scott's office Monday evening. Bills to the amount of (485.05 were ordered to be paid. A proposition from a DuBols man to make a new map of Reynolds vllle borough, for 1300.00 or 1400.00 was declined. A new borough ordlnanoe was read. It is an ordinance for "Bet ter preservation of the publio health and to prevent the spread of communi cable diseases." The ordinance will re ceive its second reading the 1st of October. Judge Gordon Dead. One of Brook vllle's old and respectable citizens, Ex-Chief Justice I. G. Gordon, of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, died at his home in Brookville of catarrh of the stomach at one o'clock Monday afternoon, and will be burled in the Brookvlllo cemetery at four o'clock this afternoon.

A basket plonlo and re-unlon will be held at Pancoast on Friday, Sept. 15th, 1893, to which all the former resident of Panooast are invited to attend. J. C. Baker, Esq., of Oak Ridge. F. K. Mullen, M. J. Far roll and E. W. Mo Mlllen, of Reynoldsvllle, Hon. Jake Truby, of Gazzam, and F. M. Lucas, of Rathtnel, are expected to address the meeting. It is hoped that all will attend and "shake" and talk over old times. Used Shamefully. Rev. G. R. McKinney, tho evangelist who conducted a mooting in the M. E. church at this place the early part of this year, has been shamefully treated by the United States Government and some of Uncle Sam's officials. Some fellow went Into Somerset county and represented himself as a V. 8. officer and defrauded three applicants for an Increase of pension out of fifty cents apiece. Mr. McKinney, who lived in Venango county at the time he visited Reynoldsvllle, afterwards moved to Oklahoma. His picture was published In a paK-r there and Bostwick, the Pen sion Examiner, saw it and concluded that It was a picture of the man who had defrauded the three Somerset men, and he telegraphed to U. 8. Marshall J. O. Stevens to arrest Mr. McKinney, which he done while the latter was at the beside of his sick wife. McKinney was taken to Guthrie where he was Im prisoned In a filthy pen with 5(1 Indians and throe train robbers. Stevens was confident ho had arrested the wrong man, but the Attorney General ordered that the prisoner bo taken to Pittsburg for trial. At Chicago the officer loft the prisoner six hours while he attend ed the Fair, and would have sent Mc Kinney to Pittsburg Blone, but learned at the Windy City that ho would not get his pay If he did not bring his man to Pittsburg. From Chicago Stevens bought a round trip ticket for himself on one road and bought a half fore tick et for the Evangelist over another. When the prisoner was turned over to tho authorities at Pittsburg, Mar shall Stevens drew full faro for both of them. It cost three hundred dollars to got Mr. McKinney to Pittsburg. The cose was tried In tho United States Court Tuesday and tho three witnesses testified that Rev. McKinney was not the man who hod defrauded them. The Government then turned the prisoner Into the streets penniless almost one thousand miles away from his family. While some people did not take to Rev. McKinney whllo hore, yet there were many who liked him. One widow lady of town, when she read of his trouble, said she would send him ton dollars If sho knew his address. When the Government saw signs of a Bult for damage, It decided to send Rev. McKinney back to Oklahoma at Uncle Sam's expense A Mine Horror. One of the saddest calamities that has evor happened In the mines of Jefferson county was the one In which Moses Hughes and his two sons met their death at Horatio mine last week. Tom Wlndlo and John Lowthor, of this place, drove to Horatio Friday night and wore at the mine when the three bodies wore found. From these gontlo mon we received the facts as given be low. Twenty-three men, a trapper and driver, went to work in the Berwind White slope No. 8, at Horatio Thurs day evening. Shortly after 12 o'clock the drlvor had taken a loaded car from Moses Hughes' room, and before 1.00 o'clock the driver discovered the fire in the mlno. Ho left his mule with the trapior and he quickly and bravely mado his way through tho smoke and, being familiar with the mine, he suc ceeded in having twenty of the inon follow him through tho danger to safe ty. Mr. Hughos and his two sons were nearest tho main entrance, but they failed to get out. Tho only reason as signed for this is that they were not familiar with tho mino. Every possible effort was mado to reach the mon, but the attempts wore fruitless until after tholr spirits had left the bodies. It was near 1.00 o'clock Saturday morning when the dead men were found. The bodies could not bo lifted without oil cloth under them as the flesh dropped off the bones whenever touched. One of the boys was lying down with his face between his hands. How the fire caught In the mines, whioh is still burning, is a mystery that seems insolvable. A widow and several small children are the great losers in the sad calamity. Dynamite Under Hia Bed. George Jones has opened a shooting gallery in the rear of H. M. Iseraan's restaurant. George boards at the Ross House, but has a bunk fixed up in the restaurant where he sleeps part of the time. Wednesday morning when he got up he found a large stick of dyna mite on the stop at the back door and one under the building just below where his bed was standing. A long piece of fuse was attached to the dynamite and cotton cord from that to the alley. The above is the story as told by Mr. Jones to a representative of the Star, but when investigated it turned out to be a false report. Several follows, for a joke, fixed up a suspicious looking package, tied a string to it and put it on the back stops. Jones threw that away and sent Roy Scott up town to buy a genuine stick of dynamite and some fuse, which he showed to people as he told of his narrow escape. A Close Call. R. V. Pratt, an assistant civil en gineer for the B.. L. & Y. C. M. Co., bad a olose call while doing some work in the Big Soldier mine one day last week.
