G. Allen Prescott, a formor towns
man, who married ono of our charming
young ladles, Miss Eftle Test, daughter
of Josse L. Test, has received tho Re
publican nomination for State Senator
of Michigan, and as that state is a Re
publican stronghold his election to the
Senate Is almost an assured thing. We
attended school with George Allen and

Experience Party.
For the purpose of liquidating a
church debt the trustees of the M. E.
church of Reynoldsvllle have adopted a
plan of placing an experience pledge in
the hands of members and those in
terested. Each person agrees to earn
by their own personal effort not less
than the amount named in pledge by
doing some kind of unusual work. An
experience party will be held in the
church on the evening of Sept. 12th,
when the money and plodges will be
handed In and each one will give an ac
count of how they earned the money.
Some of the men are making their
pledge money by blackening shoes,
wheeling trunks to station, &o.
Didn't Give It.
The members of the Keystone band
advertised "a musical feast" to be given
In Centennial Hall last Friday evening,
which they did not give because only
about 25 tickets were taken In at the
door. The boys are trying to raise
money to make the last payment on
their new suits and should have been
encouraged by a full house Friday night.
The Keystone Is a credit to our town
and is doserving of aid. They will
give the entertainmont some time In
the near future and will have the tick
ets sold through town so that if people
forget about the entertainmont the
band boys will have the "hard cash"
just the same. People seldom forget
about an entertainment when they have
purchased their ticket before hand.
Four Trips a Day.
We mentioned last week that the
business men of Reynoldsvllle proposed
to run a free hack between Reyrolds
vllle and Rathmel, a distance of three
miles, to accommodate the people of
Rathmel who want to come to town to
buy goods. Ed. C. Burns, the livery
man, is to run the hack for four dollar
per day and will make four trips every
day except Sunday, two trips in the
forenoon and two in the afternoon.
The hack is to be paid for by forty
business men paying 10 cents apleoe
per day. Mr. Burn will buy a new side
eat, canopy topped hack especially for
the work. The business men are not
putting the hack on to haul people from
Rathmel here and ' return just -for the
fun of the thing, but expect to accom
modate those who come here to buy
good.
Communication.
REYNOLDBVIhLE, Sept. 4, 1R04.
Editor Star:
To the many readers of your valuable
paper I would like to state the condi
tion of things at Big Soldier mine. On
the 16th of last month the machines
stopped, owing to a change contemplat
ed by the company. Now these men
are still idle, about 95 in all. It appears
Big Soldier miners are the only parties
held responsible for the trouble existing
between machine workers and company,
or it plainly shows it to be so when our
superintendent Informed our bank com
mittee on Friday last that Big Soldier
would run no more until machine trou
ble was settled. It Is well known upon
whom the responsibility rests, for the
offer made machine miners was one
cent a ton, or more, short of other places
under same company, or at least under
stood to be BOr It is a common report
that our superintendent only desires to
have machine coal mined In Big Soldtor
as cheap as other mines noar by. Why
don't he come up to the mark? We, as
miners of Big Soldier, condemn any
such action as placing all the blame of
existing trouble on them and shutting
Big Soldier down on account of that.
Now, to the readers of these columns, I
think the true reason of Big Soldier
being stopped Is on account of the bad
state the ventilation Is in, and if our
superintendent can rest the blame of
the stoppage of work on the miners of
Big Soldier for aiding and supporting
the machine men it would take a load
off the company's shouldors and enable
them to make these very much needed
Improvements. Now I am sure that It
1b the desire of the miners in this vicin
ity that more pleasant relations should
exist between thorn and us, but all we
request is fair play and fair representa
tion before tho public. We are not the
dissatisfied lotof people that some would
like to make us out to bo. Glvo us any
thing like reasonable treatment and
everything would run smoothly along.
Now we hope and pray that fairness
will hold a place In all our dealings to
gether from this tlmo, and let us put
behind us thoso things that open the
breach existing between operator and
employee. Praying those fow lines
may set others to thinking, I remain
Yours,
Witness.
School Law.
Tho last session of the Pennsylvania
Legislature enacted a law that should
bo obeyed by the directors of all school
districts. The law is as follows: "That
the boards of school directors and con
trollers shall provide suitable and con
venient water closets fur each of the
schools under thoir official jurisdiction,
not less than two for each school or
school building, where both sexes are
in attendance in their respective school
districts, with separate means of access
for each; and unless placed at a remote
distance ono from the othor, the ap
proaches or walks thoroto shall bo sepa
rated by a substantial close fonoe, not
less than seven feet In holght, and it
shall be the duty of the directors or
controllers to make provision for keep
ing the water closets In a clean, com
fortable and hoalthy condition."
N. L. Strong, candidate for district
attorney of Jefferson county, was in

to consult the national officers of the U.

est of the Shawmut men who were ar
rested during tho strike at the Instance
of Hall, Kaul & Co., the operators.
Mr. Strong is attorney for the men and,
although they are out on ball, and the
prospects of their acquittal Is fair, he Is
anxious to have the full moral lnfluenoe
of the miners' union with them in their
defense. Mr. Strong does not propose to
leave a stone unturned that may be of
service in obtaining full justice for hi
clients. Six of the sixty-three were
placed under $1,000 ball each and the
others released without bail and It is
the six who will have to stand the brunt
of the contest. Dubois Courier.

Following Is a private letter written
to Prof. Stamey which we considered
of sufficient Interest to give space this
week:
Winter Haven, Aug. 2fl, '94.
Having finished my first Sunday'
evening meal in this tropical land, I
find time to give you a few of the events
of my trip to the sunny south.
The first point of Interest being
Washington, which place we reached
at 7.110 a. M. Starting out for a view of
the city, we strolled toward the Capitol,
going through the conservatory where
we saw many things that we now pass
unnoticed In this our home. Going to
the Capitol, we took a walk around the
building viewing the exterior with
wondor that such things could be formed
with human hands. We next entered
the building, securing the services of a
guide to show us the points of Interest.
Neither nous being In 6fwlon. we vis
ited the Senate chamber, House and
room occupied by the Supreme Court,
and had pointed out to us seats occu
pied by our Senators while laboring in
behalf of our state. We visited the
private room of Grover, where he does
the final aot In the way of signing or
vetoing bills that come to his hands
while In the grand and glorious Capitol
of the U. S. Under the dome of the
Capitol proper we were shown the dif
ferent actions of sound at certain points,
which is phenomenal Indued. We also
visited the White House. Grover and
family being absent, we were shown
through the building, viewing the
green, blue and red rooms, halls, eta.
Saw paintings of all ex-presidents, In
cluding present one. We had the
pleasure of seeing a clock presented to
Washington by Lafayette, which has
been running almost Incessantly for 80
years. Before leaving the depot to
farther continue our journey we viewed
the star, where President Garfield was
assassinated, with deep regret for the
dead.
Leaving Washington 3..10 P. M. we
saw many beautiful sights on our way
too numerous to mention. After leav
ing Jacksonville, Fla., we saw some fine
country along the railroad. It put mo
In mind of a vast picnic ground. Fine
trees and groen grass, no under-brush,
and I thought it had been tnado by the
All-wise for a plcnlo ground for all
mankind to assemble and drink, so to
speak, the odorous breezes of this tropi
cal clime.
Along the St. Johns river, which is
a continuous chain of lakes, saw fine
sights palmetto trees 30 and 40 feet
high and other trees covered with fine
gray moss, producing a weird and fas
cinating scene.
We arrived at our destination (Win
ter Haven) at 8.30 Thursday eve. I am
favorably Impressed with this country
and think It a fine place. I have seen
nothing nicer than a fine orange grove.
It Is beautiful beyond description. We
are situated in the lake region. The
lakes are fine, but small; water pure
and fresh. We have here about 65 acres
land, 15 acres orange grove. Trees are
very nice. The land fronts on two
lakes, one on the east and the other on
the west. The largest is about three
fourths mile wide and one mile long,
abounding In fish. We have as yet no
boat to go on the lakes, but Mike and I
were in bathing this forenoon. The
water being nice and warm,, bottom
nice and sandy, we had a delightful
time. While looking around this after
noon ran onto a lemon tree with nice
ripe fruit. We ate lemons, took them
to the house and made lemonade, etc.
The trees bear and blossom at the same
time. This tree had ripe fruit and
small green fruit on, which Is peculiar.
The oranges do the same. The weather
is warm, sun rather hot, but is nloe and
cool in the shade, having a nice cool
breeze from lakes and ocean.
Could give you a more exact descrip
tion of things, but 'have hardly time
now and am tired, having written so
much to-day. Your friend,
A. H. Swartz.
Killed At Walston.
The home of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew
Guthrie, of this place, was plunged Into
gloom and sadness Tuesday forenoon
when the news was born to them that
their son, James, was killed In Mine No.
2, at Walston. James was a driver in
the mines and when coming out with a
"trip" the cars jumped the track and
struck a post; the post gave way let a
heavy fall of slate down upon the un
fortunate driver, bearing him to the
ground with its weight. When his
body was taken out it was found that
his head was crushed and his body man
gled, so death was probably instantane
ous. "Jimmle," as he was commonly
called, was a sober, industrious young
man about 21 years of age. Punxsutaw
ney Newt.
Big 8oldier.
Big Soldier was shutdown last Fri
day for an Indefinite period. The com
pany gave notice two week ago that
the iron men would be let by contract
again. There waa some dissatisfaction
about this and the iron men have been
idle since. We were informed by Mr.
Elliott, general manager, that the mine
topped work on account of the iron
men not working, and that work would
not be resumed in Big Soldier until the
iron men" were put to work. A commu
nication in another column of this issue
signed by "witness," claim the mine i
idle for other reasons..
The difficulty about the iron men was
e tiled yesterday afternoon.
