to the piano and attached the Instru

with a 'phone In the A. V. R'y office and

Reynolds then played the piano and the
musio could be distinctly heard at the
other two 'phones.
Thore are a large number of people
in Reynoldsville and violnity who do
not subscribe for The Star, but there
are comparatively few who do not read
it. Why not subscribe and read your
own paper Instead of borrowing. You
could then be Independent, would not
annoy your nolghbor and would be sup
porting the paper. We have discovered
that In many cases people who do not
subscribe for a newspaper expect more
favors from it and are the first to criti
cise. Those who do subscribe should
remember that a newspaper man needs
money.
Within the past two weeks several
drummers have shown their lack of
manliness and good common sense by
going into the ladies' waiting room at
the A. V. R'y station to smoke, talk
loud, use profane and obscene language.
Some one will get into trouble it it is
tried again. The impression at the
station is that some persons in Reyn
oldsville are putting the drummers up
to go Into the room and make fools of
themselves to have some fun with the
railroad men. If an officer bad been
around in time a few days ago a two
hundred and fifty pound "chump," who
claimed to be from Boston, would have
remained in town to answer (or bit con
duet while Supt. Rumsey was trying to
get blm to either keep quiet or leave
ths ladles' room.

Another Victim.
Flvo weeks ago last Saturday after
noon J. W. Dompsey, a liquor runnor at
tho tannery, toll Into a hot liquor Junk
and had both his legs badly burned,
from which ho is still confined to his
bed. Last Saturday afternoon, Samuel
Young, who was working at tho job
whore Mr. Dcmpsoy met with tho aecl-
dont, also fell Into a hot liquor junk and
had both feet and legs, up to tho knees,
burned. Mr. Young camo out of the
junk with hot foot but a cool head, for
he advised those who camo to his rescuo
what kind of poultices to put on his
foot. Mr. Young will be laid up for
many weeks. There is so muoh steam
about the junks that it Is difficult for
those who run tho liquor to always
know just where they are stepping, and
that Is why Mr. Young walked into the
junk Saturday.
Country People Were In.
Last Saturday was an Ideal winter
day; Old Sol was out In all Its glory and
the sleighing was excellent. This
state of affairs Induced the lads and
lassies, and evon the "old folks," In tho
surrounding community to "hook-up"
their horses and come to town to do a
little trading and to see tho sights. As
a result Main street had a business-like
appearance. Sixty-sovon teams were
standing on Main street, between Fourth
and Fifth streets, at ono time, not
counting tho sleds and sleighs on the
go up and down the street. Our busi
ness mon done a fair trade. The people
soora willing to buy, but money Is not
vory plonty and they deny themselves
of almost everything but the neces
saries. All things considered, Reyn
oldsvlllo is not so slow and there are
towns not far away that do less business
than Is dono here.
All For Revenge.
A maiden of the rural district walked
Into Roynoldsvltlo, a distance ot four
miles, last Wednesday to squander one
cent on a Valentino. The wbyfore of
tho eight mllos walk to select a suitable
penny-valentine, was becnuse a reckless
youth had purchased a hideous picture
and mailed It to the aforementioned las
sle so that she had received the "mean
thing" on Tuesday. Tho maid bought a
production representing a lop-eared,
lantern-jawed, crooked-nosed, bald-hood
ed, bow-leggod, whisky-bloated piece of
humanity, to send to the individual
whom she thought was guilty of being
audacious enough to send her a valen
tine. The maiden returned home light
of heart, feeling well paid for walking
eight miles because she found what ful
ly expressed her contempt for the party
for whom It was bought. This Is a sam
plo of what the goddess of revenge will
lead her worshippers to do.
Edward was at Ridgway.
Edward D. Seeley, a member of the
Roynoldsvllle Hardware Co., Is a great
"homo body" and It Is seldom he takes
a day off to visit friends, but last Satur
day "Uncle Ed." was at the A. V. R'y
station to take the cars for Ridgway,
and he got a trifle uneasy because the
train was a half hour late. He eat in
the gents' waiting room until he could
not contain himself longer and then he
paraded up and down In front of the
station. Dr. J. S. Bard well, brother-ln
law of our "New York Yankee," gave
a dinner party to a number of h'.s friends
Saturday evening, it being his birthday
anniversary, and "Uncle Ed." was
among the invited guosts, and when he
thought of the good things Edward is
an epicurean from away back the
temptation was too great and he hied
away to the capital of the little county
of Elk. In all the array of talent from
(ar and near that gathered around Dr.
Bardwell's festive board, we opine there
was not one that could "spin" a better
"yarn" than our townsman. If Ed. la
at himself be don't take a back seat
when it comes to amusing people at a
party.
. Attacked by Hoodlums.
We mentioned two weeks ago that a
sleighing party from Dubois was attack
ed by hoodlums who threw snow and
Ice at the visitors and one young lady
was hit In tho face and returned home
with a black eye. Last Friday night a
sleighing parly from tho same town
camo to Reynoldsvlllo and a gang of
hoodlums Insulted and assultcd the
visitors. One young laxly was struck In
the face with a piece of Ice and hor one
eye was closed for the night'. There Is
certainly somu way to put a stop to
such conduct. It Is a shame and dis
grace to any town that such devilish-
ncas will be allowed to exist In It. The
Dubois KrprrM, editorially, said tho fol
lowing Saturday about sleighing parties
to Reynoldsville:
"Sleighing parties In which there are
any women or children will do well to
avoid Reynoldsville until tho citizens of
tho town teach their boys and young
men to act In a decent and orderly man
ner. Nearly evory party that has driv
en thero from Dubois this year has been
snowballed by tho hoodlum clement.
Two young ladles have returned with
blnck eyos and others havo received
painful bruises by the missies thrown.
Tho authorities, If thero are any down
thero, appear to take no notice of those
Insults and make no effort to stop them.
They appear to be perfectly satisfied to
let tho toughs preempt tho town and
stop visitors from going. Tho people of
Dubois select Reynoldsvlllo for the des
tination of sleighing parties because tho
dlstanco Is convenient, the hotels give
good accommodation and many have
friends thero. It Is not pleasant to be
debarred from going thero but until the
attacks by hoodlums aro stopped it is
positively dangeroiiB for parties to
do so."
Got Lost.
Postmaster McGaw concluded to treat
himself and family to a sleigh rido Sun
day and he hired a good team and start
ed to tho homo of his mother-in-law In
tho Beech woods. Evan Trego has travel
ed that section of tho country many a
time In the by gones long after the sun
had disappeared behind the western
slope, and ho often kept timo to the
hoot of the night owl as he meandered
along through tho lonely woods. Thero
Is an old saying that "love is blind," but
In those days McGaw found his way to
and from the home that he afterwards
robbed of a daughter. Had any one told
the P. M. that ho would get lost whon
he started from Reynoldsvlllo It might
havo boon equlvolent to making a noise
In tho postoffico, but he did got lost all
the same. The snow drifts havo chang
ed the roads through fields, lanes and
barnyards so that a man traveling
through that section hardly knows
"whore he is at" half the tlmo. Mc
Gaw found kind friends who got him on
the right track and he visited his
mothor-ln-law and got home in time to
open tho office on Monday so that it was
not necessary to ask President Cleve
land to appoint a now postmaster for
Rcynoldsvlllo.
People who want to travol through
tho Becchwoods whllo tho snow lasts
and are afraid they cannot got Into the
right fields cun secure the services of
D. B. McConnoll, R. F. Morrison, or
George Burtop as guldos.
They Set a Trap.
About one year ago tho I. O. O. F,
lodgo moved into the Reynolds brick
block, bought now furniture, now car
pets and got vory stylish. They got so
"stuck up", with tholr now quarters
that they would not allow the Daugb
tors of Rubekah, who meet in the I. O.
O. F. hall, to hold box suppers or have
lunchoon parties In the hall, fearing the
carpets wold be damaged thereby. Sat
urday ono of the Daughters of Rebokah
told the editor of The Star that they
proposed to work a scheme on the Odd
Fellows Saturday night, and they did.
The ladles all "chipped In" and prepared
a very tempting lunch at the home of
Mrs. Chas Horpol and about the time
lodge was out they marched up to the
hall In a body and seat In a messengor
to announce that the Daughters of Re-
bukah were on the outside and desired
admission. They were admitted with
their baskets of good things and their
"lords" did not refuse to partake of the
lunch with them. The main object the
ladles had in view was to get the Odd
Fellows to eat tho lunch In the lodge
room and then they could not refuse
the room to the Daughters any time
they want It to hold a box supper, to
The ladles were little afraid the men
would refuse to eat the lunch in the
lodge room, but the temptation was too
much for the mon and they forgot about
the carpets. The trap was well baited
Opening Day.
Saturday afternoon A. D. Deemer &
Co. had their store ready to open for
public inspection. A large crowd at
tended the opening in the afternoon and
evening. The store was arranged so
that the goods showed off to a good
advantage. An orchestra of five pieces
furnished excellent music all afternoon
and evening. The Keystone band sere'
nadod the new store about seven o'clock
in the evening. The spacious store
room was crowded after supper so that
it was difficult to got from one and of
the room to the othor. There aro few,
if any, prattler store rooms in Jefferson
oounty than tho one A. D. Deemer &
Co. have just moved into.

An Explanation.
I notice some of my Prohibition
friends are inollnod to censure me for
allowing my namo to be used on the
Democratic township ticket. I would
just say I was born and reared a Demo
crat. Whon I joined tho church I
began to have conscientious scruples
about tho liquor traffic, and whon the
Prohibition party came out I voted
with It for state and national offices, and
for local offices I triod to voto for the
best interests of the township, and
claim that privilege yet. I cast the
first Prohibition voto in the township.
At the eloventh hour a few Democrats
who wore Interested In the wolfare of
tho township got togother to mako up
a ticket. They asked me to help and
allow my namo to be used, which I did
in good faith. I am a Prohib and ex
pect to bo as long as I shall try to live a
christian llfo. I will admit it is possl
ble to bo a Prohibitionist and not a
christian. It seems to mo it requires a
stretch of consclonco to bo a christian
and not a Prohibitionist.

A Deserted Child Rescued
A grusome story of suffering has
come to us from beyond Kahltown, In
Eldred township, In which a child about
four or flvo years of age, a son of a coal
miner, Is represented to have boon
abandoned and left In an old rattle-trap
of a houso, without food or clothing, In
the severest woathor of last week, where
bo stayed shut up for several days,
or until some Inspiration moved a neigh'
bor lady, Mrs. Martin, to make an In
vestigation, whon the boy was found in
a terrible plight, hungry and frost-bit
ten and almost perished. The lady act
ed tho part ot tho "Good Samaritan,"
taking the child to her home and mln
(storing to its wants and later sending
ing it to friends In Soigle, whore a
home has been found for it. Brook'

Keep Your Sign Up.
A man In business should always keep
himself before the public. This is what
Peter Cooper said of advertising in a
newspaper, and he died worth many
millions: "In all towns where a news
paper Is published every man should
advertise in It, It nothing more than a
card stating his name and the business
he Is engaged in. It does not only pay
the advertiser, but lets people at a dis
tance know the town in which you
reside is a prosperous community ot
business mon. Never pull down your
sign while you expect to do business."
It Is rumored that a young couple in
West Reynoldsville will soon join the
matrimonial ranks if the young man's
father gives bis consent, the matrl
monlal inclined youth not being of age
yet.
Jr. Prohibition League will hold a
meeting in Centennial ball Saturday
evening at half past seven. Good pro
gram.

men are good barbers and will, doubt

location.
The Allegheny River Ice.
Much has been said and written about
tho Ice gorges on the Allegheny river,
and the possiblo danger when a break
up comos. But really the half has not
been told. The Immensity of the quanti
ty of Ice has not been comprehended, nor
can It be unless one goes over the route
between Klttannlng and Oil City, and
notes carefully tho condition of the
river all the way. The Allegheny river
has never in tho recollection of ev a
oldest rlvermen been in the condition
it Is In now. True the gorge proper,
does not extend more than twenty-five
miles. But tho othor sixty miles are
Icebound, or as the railroad mon term
It: "Only a regular close up." That
there is danger always In the breaking
up of the Ice In the river In the spring
thore Is no denying. And this year the
danger is greater than it has been any
year since 1832, when the big flood
came. There never has been, at least
since that time, even If then, so much
Ice on the Allegheny river at one time.
