Wants to be a Delegate.
J. Riley Smeltzer, of Reynoldsvlllo,
who Is a devotee of the "art preserva

Brookvllle Republican office and also
worked a number of years in the
Government printing office tn Washing
ton, D. C, has announced himself as a

Whizzer!"
The Reynoldsvlllo Woolen Co. added
ono more new machine lust week to
their already well equipped mill.
Hydro-Extractor is the tiamo of the
now machine and it makes four hundred
revolutions in a minute. Because of its
wondorful velocity tho machine has re
ceived a new name since set up and is
now called a "whizzer." Horotoforo all
flannel manufactured at tho mill in
this place had to bo hung up with the
water dripping off of It and It took the
cloth sometime to dry, but the new
"whizzer" jorkB the flannel around so
rapidly that the water can not stick
on and consequently drying cloth at
tho woolen mill in Reynoldsvlllo is now
a very small matter.

ceived tho smallest number. The first
prize, a silver cuff button case, was
awarded to Harry Reynolds, and the
"booby" prize, a Chinese umbrellu, was
given to Francis J. Weakley. ' The
ladies took in about thirty-five dollars,
but as they wore at considerable expense
In prepurlng for the bunquet, not a
great sum was realized from the affair.

Attempted to Kill Mr. Cox.
Tax Collector W. T. Cox had a thrill-
Ing experience with some Polnnders
lust Friday morning In attempting to
collect $24.81 charged up against one
who hp hren a resident of Jackson
street Mr sometime. About two
months ago the man left Reynoldsvlllo
to hunt work and located at Monnnga
hela City. After finding a Job there
the Polandor sent for his family to
move to that plnce and on Friday
morning Dan. Whlttaker was hired to
haul the goods to the depot. On learn
ing that they Intended to leave without
paying their taxes, Mr. Cox proceeded
to levy on their goods and prevent them
from leaving Reynoldsvllle until some
provision was made for the payment of
the same. At last It was agreed that
the family should sign a contract allow
ing Mr. Cox to rent their property and
apply the rent on the tax until the
amount should nil bo paid. After
having the contract drawn up, our tax
collector proceeded to tho house to
have It properly signed, accompanied
by Mr. Whlttuker. A number of
Polish men and women were present to
assist in the moving, and soon after the
arrival of our American citizens one of
tho men took down a revolver from a
shelf and started towards them. He
was Intercepted by some of his country
men and, in the sen flic whlph ensued, the
revolver was accidentally discharged.
As the tax collector and drayman were
unarmed they did not wait for more,
but started down street at a lively gBlt.
The man with tho gun got as far as the
porch, but on account of the men and
women hanging to him he was unable
to use the weapon.
Mr. Cox went to his store, got his
revolver and a few citizens to accompany
him, went back to the Polander's and
proceeded to remove their goods with
out furthor resistance. An attempt
was made to find out who It was that
did the shooting, but, according to their
story, he was a stranger and had
already disappeared. No ono know his
name. When the revolver, a 32-calibor,
was discharged the ball struck the
pocket of a Polander, passed through
some books and papers and mado a hole
through his clothing. On reaching his
hide the bullet mado a black spot, but
the skin was too tough for tho bullet to
penetrate. Mr. Cox does not intend to
give up collecting tax from that class of
peoplo, but expects to be bettor prepar
ed for that kind of work In the future.
Tramps Temporary Home.
For many years It has been no un
common thing to find tho beautiful and
appropriate motto, "God Bless Our
Home," bunging In somo conspicuous
place upon the walls of well regulated
and somo not so well regulated
homes In our land, but tho lust place
any ono would expect to see tho old
motto would bo over tho opening Into
a coke oven, yet people who have passed
by tho long row of coke ovens eust of
Worth street the pust week, could see
just such a sight. Two old tramps, who
served their country well in timo of
peril and are now drawing pensions for
sorvlco rendered, "struck" this town a
few days ago in their racanderlngs, nnd
having no where to lay their heads,
they were attracted by tho lights from
the well patronized lodging placo of
such tourists, tho coke ovens and
hither they hied. Fortuno seemed to
favor them, for three or four of the ovens
were ompty. Thoy selected an oven
that was near enough to one that was
fired up so tho oven would bo nice and
warm and they cleaned all tho ashes
and dirt out of it and then got old
papers and fixed up tho interior of tho
oven as snug as possible, and pitched
their tents to sojourn there until they
got tired or the company ousted them.
The wags got a big curd and wrote in
large letters uxn It, "God Bless Our
Homo," and hung tho card, with tho
motto outside, over the opening in tho
oven to answer as a door. Ono of tho
tramps, we understand, drew his quart
erly pension money since ho came to
Reynoldsvllle, so whut tho ex-soldiers
cannot beg they buy. They make their
coffee over ono of tho neighboring ovens
and have things very comfortable for
trumps.
Died of Consumption.
On Wednesday morning, Jan. 5th, at
4.30 o'clock, Grace Arraagost, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Armagost, died
of comsumptlon. She was 14 years, 1
month, and 13 days old. On Friday
morning, after a short service at the
house, the remains were tuken on tho
7.40 train for Now Bethlehem, the
former home of Mr. Armagost's family
and the birthplace of Gruco, for burial.
Rov. J. W. Crawford, pastor of the M.
E. church at this place, went with the
family to New Bethlehem and conduct
ed the service, assisted by Rev. Small,
of that place. This Is the third child

(Advertisement.)
E. Neff, Esq., of this place, candidate
for the office of sheriff, has returned
from a canvass over tho enMre county
and feels confident of success, as the
chances are very fnvorublo that he will
lie the next Republican nominee for
sheriff of Jefferson county. We have
the assurance that he will get a largo
support from the minor vote. I draw
these conclusions from conversations
I have had with all I came In contact
with Blnee the primary campaign open
ed. They say: "Mr. NoiT has always
proven himself a friend to tho miners
and working diss and has never been
known to turn a deaf ear to a worthy
poor man when he appealed to him for
sympathy or aid, In sickness or In
trouble, and we are only too glad that
an opportunity Is afforded us whereby
we are enabled to show hlra our grati
tude for all the many kind deeds he has
bestowed upon us In past years and at
present." Mr. Neff is a gentleman in
every sense of the word, and a "jolly
good fellow" to, and ho has novor been
seen by any one standing around tho
corners using profnno and rough
language, as we havo seen and heard
Bomo "jolly good fellows" do. Thero Is
nothing that adorns a man so beautifully
as the garb of truth under all circum
stances. Mr. Neff Is a hustler and a
hard worker, but he has never been
heard to say any unkind words of those
who are candidates with him for the
office of sheriff, and his friends admire,
and appreciate him too for the honest
and straight course he Is taking In this
canvass. The ability of Mr. Neff for
tho office of sheriff is recognized by all
who know him, and on February 18th
we will give proof of the confidence we
have placed in the gentleman by giving
him our vote. m
A Few Don'ts.
Don't fail to vote on the 18th, and
when you do be sure you vote right.
Don't preach what you do not prac
tice. A hypocrite is a despicable
object.
Don't bo sarcastic. It doesn't do you
any good and may hurt some person's
feelings.
Don't run down your own town. If
you don't like it there is no compulsion
about staying.
Don't always look on tho dark side of
lifo. Remember the darkest hour is
just before tho dawn.
Don't think you know it all. Thore
are about 1,250,000,9(19 peoplo in the
world besides yourself.
Don't speak 111 of your nolghbor. If
you cun't say something good say noth
ing. Remember the golden rulo.
Don't borrow your local newspaper.
You can elevato yoursolf In your own
as well as tho editor's esteem by sub
scribing, and It only costs you two cents
a week.
Don't attempt to live at a thousand
dollar gait on a five hundred dollnr
salary. If you do you are bound to
cheat some person and cheating is equiv
alent to stealing.
Don't put off until to-morrow what
you should by all means do to-day.
In tho uncertainty of lifo and the im
mutability of human affairs thore may
bo no to-morrow for you.
Don't attempt to drink all tho whiskey
and beer In existence in ordor to keep
it out of the reach of others. The
facilities for production are probably
larger than you imagine
