or fall overboard on Friday, or marry

An exchange truthfully remarks:
"Lawyers stand up in court houses be
fore jurors, in the presence of large
audiences, and denounce men as liars,
scoundrels, thieves, perjured villlaus,
and when the court adjourns the men
thus abused appear to harbor no ill will
against them. But let a newspaper
faintly intimate that a man's oharacter
Is blemished, and he has to confront a
horse pistol, stand a libel suit, or suffer
what some people think to be the great
est of all mortifications lose a subscriber."

Organized.
A meeting of the minors and mine
luborers of this vicinity was called for
last Wednesday night to form an organ
ization of the United Mine Workers of
America in this place. The number
who gathered at Centennial hall was so
small that tho moeting was postponed
until Thursday night whon the organ
ization was formed with a membership
of about one hundred and twenty-throe.
Tho organizers and spoakors were a
Mr. Henderson, of Houtzdale, and Mr.
Butler, of Osceola.
Changed Her Name.
Chas. G. Witter, a telegraph operator
at Keating, on the P. & E. railroad,
and Miss May Iseman, of Roynoldsvlllo,
wore married at Emporium at two
o'clock Wednosduy afternoon, Jan. 24th.
Mr. Witter's parents live at Tyrone and
are members of the Presbyterian church
and choir of which Rev. Furbay is pas
tor. It is probable that the young
couple will go to housekeeping at Kea
ting. May's voice will be missed in the
Reynoldsville Presbyterian church
choir, as she is a sweet singer.
Stop-off Privileges.
Railroad companies have some diffi
culty in getting the traveling public to
understand what stop-off privileges
they are entitled to when they pur
chose a ticket. Some people seem to
think they can stop-off as often as they
want to. M. J. Farrell received a cir
cular from the general passenger agent
of the A. V. R'y a few days ago, which
reads as follows: "Only one stop-off Is
allowed on a first-class unlimited ticket.
Conductors do not issue stop-off checks
when the rote between the point pas
senger wishes to stop and the desti
nation of the ticket is less than twenty
five cents."
A Little Fire.
Last Thursday afternoon the girl that
works at Fred. Alexander's, in raising
one of the windows, pushed the lace
curtains into the blaze of a gas jet.
The ourtalns caught fire and would
have done destructive work hod not the
fire been looked after immediately. As
it was, a ten dollur rug, a pair of lace
curtains, a good carpet and a number
of little trinkets on a bureau had the
cash value knocked off them. The fire
alarm was given but the fire company's
services were not required. Fred.
Alexander lives on the seoond floor of
the Arnold block and The Stab office
is on the first floor of the same block,
therefore, we were very much interest
ed when we discovered the fire was in
in that block. Fire, like death or any
other calamity, has a tendency to in
tensify the interests of a man or woman
when it gets into their home.

Attempted Murder.
A man named Chas. Haller, of Punx
sutawney, attempted to butcher his
wife with a hatchet at DuBois last
Wednesday. He came very nearly
being successful. The woman started
from Punxsutawney for Ohio on Tues
day, went to Falls Creek and returned
to DuBois. Some person notified the
husband and Tuesday evening he went
to DuBois to look for his wifo, whom he
had not impllclty confidence. After
the show at the opera house was over
Haller saw his wife come out with
another man and a scene was enacted"
then and there, but the woman stuck to
her new "mash." The next day Haller
called on his wife and ottackod her
with a hatchet and then left her, as he
supposed, dead, and skipped out of town.
He was captured at Subula Thursday
and Is now in the Clearfield county jail.
According to reports on both sides it is
"six of one and half dozen of the other."
Lacks the Cash.
A Reynoldsville youth become ac
quainted with a fair maiden several
years ago and was soon entangled in
the silken meshes of love. He fell at
her feet and offered her his heart and
hand, (it was all he hod to offer, as he
is a loafer who lives at his father's ex
pense) and was extravagant with words
of love. The maiden at first deolined
the offer because tho fellow lacked
enough cash to pay the preacher, even
at a reduction, but
Afterwards yielded when be demurred,
Submitted a brief, and ber dad concurred)
And so It was settled tb twain should be
One aud the name fur eternity.
The necessary amount of "filthy lucre"
has not been raised yet to pay the
preacher and the twain are not one.

An Old Settler.
Peter Cox, ono of tho old settlers of
this section, died at four o'clock Thurs
day morning, Jan. 2.1th, 1804, aged 73
Jem's, .'1 months nnd 1.1 dnys. Ho was
horn in Columbia county, Pa., Octols-r
12. 18211. Ho settled In Washington
township. Jefferson county, in 184(1, and
and In 184H located on tho farm near
Sandy Valley, whore he lived until
removed by death. Mr. Cox cleared
and improved the farm himself. For
thirty years he was a prominent lumber
man of the county. lie was father of
fourteen children, nine boys and five
girls. His wife and five children pre
ceded him through the veil of death to
try the realities of the Great Beyond.
Mr. Cox, who was a hard worker, had
been ulllng for more than a year. A
few minutes before tho old gentleman
died ono of his sons, who was standing
at tho bed-sldo, felt his hand and said:
"Father you are cold, put your hand
under the clothes," but ho sold, "No,
my son, that Is death." Mr. Cox then
folded his hands across his breast and
his heart ceased its throbbings. Tho
funeral services were held Sunday
afternoon and his remains wore burled
In the Epworth cemetery beside his
wife, who died so suddenly in the A. V.
station at this place over a year ago.
The deceased was a brother of John T.

Dangerous Practice.
Two Kittanning boys about twelve
years old, whllo playing in that town
one day last week, had a little difficulty
and ono struck the other. Tho boy
who was slapped said, "I'll fix you for
that," and drew a revolver and fired It.
The boll struck the boy In the loft
breast, passed through a lobe of the
lung and lodged deeply in the body.
The Kittanning Timet says that many
boys in that town, ranging from twelve
to fifteen years of ago, are In tho habit
of carrying revolvers, and that it is not
an uncommon occurrence oven In the
school room for ono boy to display his
wcajxin to another. Tho parents of
Kittanning, Reynoldsville or any othor
town should see to it that their boys do
not carry revolvers, as such weapons
are dangerous even for men to handle.
If the Kittanning boy dlos, which is
probable, the boy who deliberately shot
him will have his young life stained
with another boy's blood. How will
the parenUtof the murderer fool? If you
have any doubt about your boy carry
ing a revolver, search his pockets every
night to be on tho safe side.

A. Morris and S. C. Ewing, completed
the work of settling up the affairs of the
county for 1803, last Wednesday. The
county is in debt about 170.000. The last
county treasurer redeemed about $15,000
of county bonds. The cosh in the coun
ty treasury at present is very low.
There Is 12,600 due to the late Treas
urer and 91,100 to Ex-Sheriff Young,
and the Treasurer is not in shape at
present to pay it. About 110,000 is due
the county from various townships for
the keeping of the insane. An error of
$5,000 in the county's favor, which had
been mode at a previous settlement,
was discovered and corrected. As soon
as tax collectors got thoir money paid
in tho treasury will be all right again,
but until that time it may bo necessary

small loan to tide us over present emer
