The town council was to have held a
a special meeting Monday evening, and

to say about special meetings and likoly
will have hereafter.
Now that the snow has gono what

We received a neat invitation last Frl

member of tho graduating class.
According to the DuBols papers the
Driving Club of that place has already
begun and abandoned tho project of a
colcbration at that place on the Fourth
of July. Tho Club is early In making
both decisions. It may be the financial
difficulties In that town lost week, and
the effects thereof, was the cause of the
decision of the Club Friday night "that
it was not practicable to hold a Fourth
of July celebration."
Anyone can soli the reputation of an
Individual however pure and chaste, by
uttering a suspicion that his enemies
will believe, and his friends never
beard of; a puff of the Idle winds can
shake a million seeds from the thistle
and do a world of mischief which the
husbandmen must labor long to undo.
Such are the soed of the slanderer, so
easily sown, so difficult to gather up,
and yet so pernicious in their fruits.
Samuel Lewis, a miller of St. Marys,
committed sulcldo Wednesday morning
of lust week. He securely fastened a
rope to a beam in the second story of
his grist mill, stood on a barrel, adjust
ed the noose about his nock, kicked the
barrel from beneath him and launched
his soul into eternity, He was seventy
one years old. He was addicted to the
use of intoxicants, and it is supposed
liquor was largely responsible for the
rash act.
Among the varied features to be pro
duced during the performance of "Si
Perkins," which will be presented by
the Burton-Columan Company at the

22nd, is their olio of specialties and the

ed by Prof. G. G. Vance, which is sure
to be entertaining. Of the play itself
we need only to say that for laughing
purpose there are no better, and this
hat been proven by the large audience
It always attract, and whloh is sure
to be in attendance next Friday even
ing. The parade given by the famous
Pughtown farmers' band is great.

Pat Lyden, of Rathmel, were hold up
by three men at the junction above
Presoottvllle and robbed when on their
way home from Reynoldsvillo. A forty
dollar gold watch was taken from Con

tion Is becoming noted for foot pads. It
Is supposed that tramps are doing the
western act" up there.
Died on a Train.
A. J. Baxter, of Baxter, Pa., father
of Mrs. Martin Phalen, of West Reyn
oldsvillo, died on an A. V. R'y possen-
gor train at West Ponn Junction Fri
day forenoon of last week. Mr. Baxter
and Mrs. Phalen had been at Pittsburg
on a throo weeks' visit and wore return
ing home when he died of heart trouble.
The deceased was over seventy years
old and was in apparently good health
until the sudden attack which ended his
life.
In the Waste Basket.
We received a communication claim
ing to be from a coal miner of Rathmel
yesterday which was thrown into the
waste basket because the writer did not
sign his name to it. When people learn
that all communications must be accom
panied by the writer's name, there will
not bo so many articles consigned to tho
waste basket. The communication came
down heavy on some of the minors of
Rathmol, catling thom "deceitful, two
faced hypocrites, black as satan," &o.,
and suggostod that they be treated
with a good dose of tar and feathers.
The writer says the men referred to
say one thing to the company officials
and anothor thing to the men, trying to
stand In well with both sldos.
John K. Dunkle Dead.
John K. Dunk to, of West Reynolds
villo, died suddenly at his home in that
borough about one o'clock yesterday
morning of heart trouble Mr. Dunklo
had boon down street until after nlno
o'clock Monday evening. He retired
and about midnight told his wifo ho
was cold and got out of bed and sat
down in front of tho stove In a chair.
Ho was not In tho chair long until his
head foil back. A doctor was called
but before ho arrived tho soul and body
of Mr. Dunkle hod separated forever.
The deceased had livod InReynoldBvlllo
for many years and was well known in
this neighborhood. His death was a
great surprise because he had been on
the streets on Monday in apparently
good health. Funeral Thursday after
noon. A Pleasant Affair.
Tho reception given by the cltizons
of West Roynoldsville, in honor of the
teachers of the publlo schools, in the
city hall last Wednesday evening was a
very pleasant affair. Nearly all tho
peoplo of that borough, old and young,
attended tho reception, and tho hall
was packod during the entire evening.
The first story of tho building was
converted into a dining room whore
throe largo tables, at which fifty-four
could be seated at one time, were load
ed down with good things to eat.
Supper was served about eight o'clock,
after which all repaired to the second
floor, where an organ had been taken
to furnish music, and everything ar
ranged for a good time. The fun for
the evening ended with a cake walk
about eleven o'clock.
The teachers, Prof. Lex. N. Mitchell,
Jonnie White and Maggie Butler, ap
preciated the kind act of the citizens
wbo tendered the reception, and are
very grateful for the same.
Work or Pay.
Three fellows wore arrested Saturday
night for being drunk and disorderly
and were locked in the "cooler." A
friond paid the fine for one of the men
and he was given his freedom Saturday
night and the other two remained in
the lock-up until Sunday morning and
paid five dollars apiece for their free'
dom. They claimed to have onty three
dollars apiece and wanted off for that
but Burgess Lattimer refused to accept
that amount and authorized the chief-
of-police to lock them up again, and the
street commissioner was to put them to
work Monday morning in leveling off
the snow along the sides of the streets,
When the chaps saw the Burgess was
in earnest and would not come down on
the fine, they preferred to pay five do!
lars rather than work -on tho streets
five days. The fellows that are "shy"
the amount to pay fines bad better be
very careful how they conduct them
selves if they don't want to work on the
streets for the borough, for the Burgess
will enforce the ordinance compelling
those to work who cannot or will not
pay their fines. If they refuse to work
a chain and ball will be attached to
them and they will be compelled to
stand on the street ten hours of each
day until the fine is paid at one dollar
per aay. ,
I
An Active Life.
We made mention Inst week of the
death of Rov. Ham'l Miles, which oc
curred at Ansonvllle, Clearflotd county,
on the 5th Inst., but were unable to got
facts to give a sketch of his life last
week, and as he was well known In
Reynoldsvillo and has a son and daugh
ter living here, we publish a short
sketch of his life this week.
Rev. Samuel Mites was born In the
United States Arsenal at Gray's Ferry,
near Philadelphia, on the Schuylkill,
Nov. 12th, 1806. He moved to Mllos
burg, Center county, In 18.'tO and in four
years afterwards was ordained Into the
Baptist ministry and was soon after
wards married to Mary Ann Tipton, of
Bollefonte, who died In 1R64 and he
afterward was married to Elizabeth
Robinson, of Curwcnsvlllo, who sur
vives him. He was tho father of thir
teen children, six of whom survive him.
He had fifty-two grand children and
Ixty-ono great grand children.
In 1841 ho organized Zlon church,
where ho died, and he remained there
until 1864, when he moved to Brooklyn,
Iowa. From there he moved to Pres-
cottvllle, and seventeen years ago mov
ed back to the Zlon church, Clearfield
county, where ho done his last work.
Rev. Miles came of a remarkable fami
ly. For four generations back the
fathers, in line of descent, had been
ministers of the gospel, and the deceas
ed was himself one of the five sons, four
of whom were Baptist preachers. He
had many trials and hardships In his
early ministry that is unknown to the
preachers of this section to-day. In
those times roads were bridle paths,
streams were brldgciess and the country
almost a howling wilderness. Services
wore then hold in barns, log houses or
huts.
DuBois Failures.
The closing of the Bank of DuBois
last Thursday morning raised quite an
excitement In DuBois and surrounding
community among the depositors of the
bank, and was the the theme of discus
sion In Roynoldsville Thursday after
noon, yet It was not unexpected among
a number of peoplo In DuBois and Royn
oldsville. Tho bank has boon in a deli
cate condition for somo time for ready
cash. Cashier Wois was in Roynolds-
villo along about the first of lost month
to borrow money to carry on the busi
ness. Just what tho depositors will get
out of tho bank Is ono of the unknown
things at present. Tho Courier, which
lot the banking institution down easy,
holds out tho encouragement that tho
depositors will bo paid ono hundred
cents on tho dollar.
II. Loob, ono of tho leading business
men of DuBois, made an assignment
Friday. Tho Courier Bays: "Some late
judgements havo been entered ugalnst
him which, including a previous mort
gage, mako a total of fifty-two thousand
dollars."
Fire Co. Meeting.
Fire Company No. 1 mot in the coun
cil chambers of this borough last Thurs
day evening, and from tho minutes of
that mooting we glean the following:
The town council will bo asked to buy a
fire alarm for tho borough. The fire
company of Brookville will come bore
In the near future and produce a play
entitled "Nevada, or the Lost Mine."
Half tho proceeds will bo for tho benefit
of the Reynoldsvillo fire company.
An errort win be made to form an as
sociation of the fire companlos of Jeffor
son, Elk, McKean, Clarion and Arm
strong counties. The secretary of Fire
Company No. 1 was instructed to cor
respond with the oompunios in the conn
tios above mentioned and have a moot
ing in Roynoldsville early in May to
organize the now association.
Farmers, Look Here.
I have the largest and best stock of
large, small, medium, or Alslke clovor

BOOK RECEPTION DAY.
Fine Work Displayed Two Hundred and
Sixty-one Books.
Lost Friday was "book reception day"
In tho borough schools, and the people
who visited' the schools were well pleas
ed with the reception and took delight
In examining the work dono by tho
pupils that was on exhibition for the
Inspection of the visitors. In the hall
down stairs a streamer was stretched
from one wall to the other with the
word "welcome" on it In largo letters,
and on the floor under each end of the
streamer was a potted plant In bloom.
In the halls on the first and second
floors were tobies, nicely covered with
cheese-cloth, on which wos piled tablets
containing various kinds of work dune
by the pupils from tho lowest to tho
highest grades In the school. Tho walls
tho school rooms wore well covered with
maps and other drawings done by tho
scholars. The nuine of the pupil who
did tho work was written upon each
piece. All tho work was certainly woll
executed, making allowance of course,
for the grades of the pupils. On the
Instdo wall over the front door were
these words, "Thank you, come again."
This is the first time the schools of
this place have ever had such a depart
ure from tho common every day routine
of school llfo, and It was highly ap
preciated and enjoyod by scholars, par
ents and friends. A large number of
people attended the reception. Two
hundred and sixty-one excellent books
wero added to tho school library as a
result of the reception. One of the
books given cost 912. Prof. Hillard
won the prize on tho guess of tho num
ber of books. His guess was two hundred
and sixty books. The Professor put his
guoss in before one o'clock, as did all
the scholars. In fact some of them hand
ed In thoir guossos the day before. Tho
visitors mado their guess whon they
gave their book.
Prof. Hillard and his assistants have
done excellent work this term and de
serve great credit for tho same. The
school board did not miss It when Prof.
Hillard was chosen as principal for the
borough schools. He has proven him
self capable of filling that position ac
ceptably. Besides being a scholar he
is a gontloman. It is likoly thut Prof.
Hillard docs not plcaso all tho people,
ho would bo a romarkoblo man If he did
so. l ot ho has tho ability to manago a
school successfully.
