Steve Ross and daughter, Amelia, of Wortlilngton, l'n.. visited the former's sister, Mrs. Wood Reynolds, In Reyn oldsvlllo lust week. Notwithstanding the fact that It Is not a great distance from tills place to Wortlilngton, which Is ax mill's out from Klttaunliig. this Is the first visit Mr. Ross lias made to Re.vnoldsville since 18.",, almost forty three years ago. As the town was then a thing of tho future and the surrounding country a vast wilderness. It Is hardly necessary to state that Mr. Ross noticed a wonderful change in the town and Its surroundings when here last week. Good Entertainment. Theschool entertainment given In the opera house last Friday, evening was a decided success. Tho program, as pub lished in Tiik Staii last week, was car ried out with the exception of one or two selections. Tho young peoplo who took part all dono nicely and deserve credit. The house was packed und tho people were well pleased with tho en tertainment. Tho admission was 15 and 25 cents and It took a largo house to run the receipts up to the amount tho participants deserved for tho work done, hut tho library fund will Ihi great ly Increased when tho proceeds aro dumped Into tho treasury. Tho door receipts were $78.25. An Old Lady Gone. Mrs. Rebecca Dougherty, of Beech woods, relict of John Doughorty, died at 3.00 a. M. Sunday, Dec. 2.'lrd, and was burled In tho Beechwoods cemetery at 10.IH) a. M. to-day. Mrs. Dougherty has been an invalid for years. She was about seventy-seven years old. She moved with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Morrison, from Ireland Into the Bocchwoods when a girl of sixteen sum mers, and was consequently one of tho old settlors In that section of the coun ty. The deceased was a sister of Joseph Morrison of this place. She had been a consistent member of tho Presbyterian church for years and was ready to pass over. Sho was the last of her family to leave these mundane shores. A Donation. Rev. Johnson and family wore treated to an agreeable surprise last Thursday evening by the morabors and friends of the Presbyterian church. At about seven o'clock the people began throng ing tho parsonage, each bringing a Christmas donation, and what was even better, a warm genial spirit. For near ly throe hours peoplo wore coming and going, leaving behind them tokens of their good will. Rev Johnson has often said that ho wished to be highly stimu lated for duty, even though It bo brought about by an occasional scolding from his peoplo. Ho says, though, that the kindness of Thursday evening will not only servo this excellent purpose, but also onablo him to do his work with good cheor. Juvenile Entertainment. Tho scholars of tho four rooms in tho Reynolds block, of which Mildred Ful ler, Molllo Miles, Mattio Waito and Min nie Whltmoro aro teachers, gave an en tertainment In Miss Fuller's room on Friday afternoon. Tho llttlo folks dono real nioely. Tho pro gram was as follows: Song by school; song, Nulu Nealo; recitation, Bessie Soncor; song by a number of girls; reci tation, Etta Shaffor; song, Oma Keller; recitation, Jessie Campbell; recitation, Eula Shaffer; recitation, Gertrude Wbltmore; recitation, May Whlttaker; recitation, Bert Burns; song, six boys; recitation, John Bohren; recitation, Wallace Lowther; recitation, Ethel Shaffer; recitation, Twlla Shaffer; dia logue, four boys; recitation, Frank Boh ren; recitation, Laural McPherson; recitation, Annie Trudgen; dialogue, Irene Phlllippl and Chester Belnap, recitation, Jennie Maiden; recitation, Jennie McGaw; recitation, Frances Bay ers; recitation, May Tapper) song, class "Herald" Office in Ashes. For the third tlmo within nine months the Falls Creek Hrrnld nfllco ha boon destroyed by flro. In March tho oflleo was burned and Editor Bangert bought a new and complete oflleo. tn June tho new ollicu went up in smoke. Bangert, although somewhat, discouraged, bought another new outfit, built himself a new olllen and again sent tho rrwM out as spicy and neat as ever before. About ono o'clock last Thursday morning David Postlethwalt, of this place, en gineer on tho R. &. F. C. R'y, and sever al other men of tho crew who were doing work In the Falls Creek yard, saw flumes and smoke Issuing from the rear of tho lliritltl office. They gavo tho fire alarm and also hastened to tho oflleo to assist in saving property If possible. There was so much smoke and flro In tho Interior thnt they could only get out a few books. There seems to bo no doubt but that Chits..!. Ikingcrt is tho victim of some Incendiary fiend, an imp that should bo where he rightfully be longs. Bangert lsout.sioken and gener ally calls things by their right name, and has been something of a terror to evil doers which all newspaora should be and It Is likely he has stirred up some vile and corrupt character that Is seeking revenge by tho Incendiary torch. Bungert has lost courage is it any wonder ? and says he will not re build in Falls Crook again. Bro. Ban gert has our sympathy in his third mis fortune. New School Building. The school Isiard has agreed to erect one brick, twelve-room, school building on the Rhoads place, near the site of the present school house, and will ask the voters of this borough to say by their lmlolts ul tho February election hut the borough can be bonded for $25,- (101 1 to build the new school house. We are glad the school ImiiikI has arrived Ht 11 conclusion on the school building ques tion and that, they have decided to erect one large school house. The voters aro so well posted on the necessity of a now school building that we have not the least doubt hut that, tho vote to bond tho borough will carry by a large ma jority. Since the Isiard has deelded on one building, instead of two, it is hoied that they will make calculations on putting up a school house that will bo a credit to tho town. Wo should have a modern school house with all tho modern improvements. Tho time is past for towns tho size of Reynoldsvlllo to have anything short of modern schools and modern school buildings. Erect a build ing that future generations will call you "blessed," instead of saying you wore "antiquated Toggles" oven in tho latter days of tho nineteenth century. Wo do not presume to say that our school Isiard would even think of building anything olso than a modern school building throughout, but wo mako these remarks before tho board decides on the plan of tho building. A Good Act. Last week Lewis Rosenthal, of this place, and II. King, of Punxsutawncy, wore In Helvetia, this county, on busi ness. These gentlemon found thorn selves possessed with several hours of leisure and while walking around squandering their spare time they camo up to a miner's house whero a constablo had jiiBt sold all tho household goods of the family and a woman and three children were turned into the world without a home. Tho two men were touched by tho pitiable sceno and in quired Into tho case and found the goods bad been sold for a small amount. The two business mon bought the cook stove back and presontod it to tho woman. This act soomed to strike a tender cord In tho hearts of the people who had bought other articles, and they began one by one giving tho goods back until the woman and children wore soon in tholr homo again with almost all their goods back. Tho kind act on the part of Rosenthal and King was tho means of rodeaming the household goods for tho family that had boon thrown out of homo. Just the Thing. Has the thought ever struck you that a year's subscription to The Stab would bo just the thing to give as a Christmas presont? Ono beauty about such a present Is that the receiver will bo reminded of tho giver every Wednes day during 1805. It would be a useful presont for any family that does not al ready receive It. TnE Star gives all tho local, county and general news each week. A Pointer for Santa Claus. At G. Bohren's City Bakery will bo found a fine line of sweetmeats for Christmas.

Gooder's. Robinson has the largest stock of shoes at the lowest prioes. Free, but Good. A largo number of Reynoldsvlllo peo ple have reasons tn tie thankful to tho members of tho P. O. R. of A. Camp at this place for the privilege they onjoyod last Thursday evening of hearing Rev. C. II. Fitzwllllam deliver a grand lec ture. His subject, "Tho Battlo of Life," was discussed with a vigor, humor, pathos and philosophy rarely, If over, surpassed by any ssiaker who has apM nred in this town. His lecture was a plea to tho young and middle- aged to endeavor to live grand and noble lives. The lecture was spluiidld ly conceived and was eloquently deliv ered. The P. ). 8. of A. Camp at this place deserves much credit for renting tho Centennial hall and paying tho lec turer out of their own pockets and giv ing Rcynoldsvllle ooplo a free lecture. The hall was comfortable filled, but not packed. Had the eoplo known tho treat in store for them tho hall would have been too small to accommodate the crowd that would havo gathered there. After the lecture In Oenton nlal about ono hundred members of tho order from this place and Rathmel repaired to tho P. (). S. of A. hall whero Mr. Pltzwllllatn del I vend an other lecture in tho Interest of tho order. Tho Camp exited to treat themselves to another good lecture In the near future and will glvo tho publio an opportunity to hear it free. Tells How It was Done. Frank Meade, one of tho fellows who robbed ImI. ('mill at llroek wayvillo on the evening of tho 10th Inst., was arrest ed at Ronovo on the I. Ith Inst., hut his "pard" escaped tho officers. Tho robber had Covill's gold watch in his possession when arrested. Meade, who Is about twenty years old, made a confession of the job done at Ilioekwa.vvlllo and gave the following account of It: "Wo went Into the store ut about 8 o'clock and my partner held iipCovlll while I searched him. I got foil in money and a watch on his person und Ik 'fori; I could make a search of the store some parties on tho outside were attracted to the place by the racket, for Covill slipped his gag and shouted 'robVrh!' I told my part ner to plug him and he knocked him to the floor. Wo then made a dive out of tho place. At t)-,. door some of tho fid lows on the outside made a faint effort to stop us. Wo shot at them twice that Is," with a grin, "we shot as near to their heads as we could without hitting them and you'd havo died to seo them run. We ran a couple of blocks and got away all right. From that place wo went to Ridgway and hung around that vicinity until Thursday, when wo went to St. Marys and bonrded the freight train for Ronovo. Wo started for that place with tho intention of doing a job as wo were low in pocket again." Christmas Presents. Christmas tido is hero again. To morrow mirth and joy will bo found In many of too homes of our land. Sad In deed Is the home where Christmas time does not bring happiness. Many peoplo forget that the angels sang "On earth peace, good will toward mon" on the first Christmas morning of long ago, and only think of the day as a time for giving and receiving presents, and hav ing a good time. While Christmas presents are tho go, It does not necos sarlly follow that such gifts should be expensive. Nothing should be given unless the heart goes with it, and if the recipient be worthy the humblest offering will possess the highest possi ble value. To give because it la "the fash ion," or because somebody "expects" a gift, is to degrade a beautiful custom. Let your gifts be simple and Inexpen sive; lot them go only to those whom you love and who, you have reason to believe, love you. Then the most com mon offering, especially if It be made by your own hands will be accounted as of great value, a value that cannot be es timated in dollars and cents. Temperance Society. The entertainment held in the K. of P. hall Saturday evening by tho Tem perance Society was largely attended.
