Will be Used for Cemetery.
A few years ago the Idea was conceiv
ed of converting an eight-acre piece of
land south of town Into a cemetery.
Tho land was surveyed and laid out in
lots and tho, to be, silent city wascallod
Pleasant Avenue comotory. A fow
peoplo bought lots and burled their
loved onos there. . Satisfactory arrange
ments could not bo mado with the
Central Land and Mining Co., who own
the land, in regard to the price thereof
and the matter has been standing un
settled, although J. J. Sutter, agont for
the C. L. & M. Co., has used his in
fluenco to persuado the company to
lessen the price asked. The Indications
have boon several timeg that the schemo
would be abandoned and those who had
burled loved ones there would have to
lift them. The company has at last
accepted the price offered for the land
and, we have been informed by Mr
Sutter, In a fow days a ReynoldsviUe
stock company will be Incorporated and
will purchase the land, now known as
the Pleasant Avenue cemetery, for the
purpose of using it as a burying ground.
Death from Uterine Cancer-
Mrs. Eliza A. Pomroy, aged almost 73
years, died at the home of her son,
Joseph Pomroy, in this plaoe last Wed
nesday afternoon. About six months
ago Mrs. Pomroy had a stroke of par
alysls which robbed her of all use of
her loft side. Nine weeks before she
died the old lady raised up from the
chair on which she was sitting to re
arrange the cushion under her and in
so doing lost her equilibrium and fell to
the floor, dislocating her loft hip by the
full. Although her left side was
powerless from the effects of paralysis
and her loft hip dislocated, yet hor
death resulted from a uterine cancer.
Before Mrs. Pomroy died she made a
request that her remains be taken to
the M. E. church, of which she bad
been a member for years, where she
wanted the funeral services held. She
also selected the hymns to be sung at
her funeral. The funeral services were
held in the M. E. church Friday after
noon, conducted by Rev. J. W. Crawford.
pastor of the church, and her remains
were burled in Beulab cemetery ( The
funeral was largely attended. The
deceased bad lived in ReynoldsviUe
siueen or seventeen years.
Died Thursday.
William Bell, son of J. 11. Boll,
superintendent of the Boll, Lewis &
Yates C. M. Co., died at 7.10 P. M.,
Thursday March Cth, after a prolonged
Illness of almost twenty-three weeks.
The young man first had typhoid fever,
that was followed by pneumonia, which
In turn was followed by consumption.
He was a patient sufferer. He was
rational until the very last moment.
Three minutes before his spirit took Its
flight from the emaciated body tho
young man wanted to get up. With
his last breath he lisped the word,
mother." William was the youngest
member of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bell's
family. He was born at Dunbar,
Fayette Co., Pa., and was 10 years, 0
months and 23 days old. Ho was six
feet and ono Inch tall. Tho deceased
was a member of the Presbyterian
church and the funeral services were
hold In that church at 2.15 P. M. Sun
day, conducted by Rev. It. R. Johnson,
pastor of tho church. The funeral was
nn unusually largo one and tho church
was not largo enough to hold more
than about half the peoplo who wanted
to get In to hear tho services. A
special train was run from Helvetia to
accommodate friends who were anxious
to bo present, Tho train arrived hero
over tho R. & F. C. R'y about 1.45 P. M.
and returned immediately after tho
funeral. The remains of the young
man were taken to Beulah cemetery
and laid away to await tho resurrection
morn. The floral contributions were
very elaborate, In fact there has never
been a funeral In Rcynoldsvillo whore
flowers were so lavishly displayed.
Tho floral contributions were from tho
following sources: Anchor, from the
employees of the B., L. & Y. C. M. Co.,
with whom tho deceased had worked;
largo boquot from N. T. L. Society of
the Presbyterian church; boquet of
roses, Miss McLcavy, of Stanley; large
boquet, Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Brown and
Hon. S. B. Elliott; basket of flowers,
Mrs. Dr. Williams, of Adrian; large
boquet of lilies, Mr. Wlnslow and Mr.
Lang, of Punxsutawncy.
Accepted the Reduction.
It was mentioned in The Star lost
woek thot tho Bell, Lewis & Yates C.
M. Co. had mado a reduction of ono
cent, from 23 to 22 cents, per ton on tho
price of machtno mining, to take effect
March 2nd, and that the machine men
effected, the machines working in wet
and bad places were not includod In the
reduction, did not go to work Monday.
Thoy wore Idle until Saturday morning
and then went to work at the 22-cent a
ton rate. Delegates wore sent to Adrian
and Eleanora, where machines are used
by the R. & P. C. & I. Co., to confer
with tho cutters and scrapers there.
The delegates returned Thursday and
at a meeting held that day reported
that tho price paid for machtno work at
tho two places named is tho same as tho
rate proposed by the company hero, 22
conts. Thero was practically nothing
dono at tho meeting of tho machine
workers Thursday but to cloeiclo to call
a general mass meeting of tho miners
to bo hold near Prescottvlllo Friday at
00 P. M., at which mooting only a fow
of the employees of the company out
side of the machine men who had been
rcducod, tho other machine men were
working, attended tho mooting. After
the situation was well discussed it was
decided to accept tho reduction and a
committee was appointed to wait upon
General Manager Elliott and Inform him
that thoy wore ready to resume work If
all would bo permitted to do so. The
committee was to report at tho mine
Saturday morning and if the answer
was favorublo, and. thero was no dhv
crimination, they wore to resume work
that morning, but if thoy wore not all
permitted to return to work a meeting
was to bo held at 10.00 A. M. Saturday.
The company's answer was favorable
and the machines were started Satur
day morning. The machines mine
about fifty ton a day, which means 25
cents a day of a reduction to the cutters
and scrapers.

Burglars I Did You 8y t
About two o'clock last Friday morn
ing Glenn A. Mllllren, who Bleeps In
his largo clothing store, was awakened
by a noiso which sounded like a side
walk cracking with frost, but Glonn
soon discovered that an uninvited
customer was attempting to gain access
Into tho store through a back window.
Whon tho clothier reached tho window
and pulled up the blind the window was
raised about two foot .and a mnn was
standing In front of it with his hands
on the sash ready to give it another
hoist, and when Glenn pointed his
revolvor at tho intruder and ask him
what he wanted, ho mndo an exceeding
ly hasty retreat. Glonn thinks there
were three In the party. A flat five-
eighth Instrument was used to pry up
the window. It was the breaking of
tho fastener on tho window that
awakoned Glenn.
When D. B. StaulTor's store In West
Reynoldsvlllo was opened Friday morn-
ng it did not require a second look to
onvlneo Will that burglars had been
In tho store during tho night. An
nvestigation showed that tho burglars
had helped themselves to shirts,
susjionders, gloves, handkerchiefs,
pipes, tobacco nnd two bottles of pop.
They carried a lot of goods out of tho
building which they did not carry awny
with them. They gained entrance Into
the store by prying open tho front door.
Mr. Stattffcr thinks there wore only
two of thorn because they only drank
two bottles of pop. It may be possible
tho third man was not thirsty or that
ho did not want to put anything so
tame into his stomach. Three fellows
wore soon below Hopkins mill about
daylight Friday morning headed for
Brookvllle who wero suspicious looking
chaps and their coats wore bulged out,
showing that they had something con
cealed under them.
It was tho Bamo parties who attempt
ed to break Into Mlllirens store that
did get Into Stauffcr's store. In the
hurry to ransack tho store and select
the goods they wanted they forgot two
of their tools In Stauffcr's store, a mat
tock, without a handle, and a flvo-olghth
chisel, well sharpened, which was tho
exact size of tho Instrument used at
Mlllirens.
Educational Association.
Tho regular meeting of tho Educa
tional Association was held In tho
school building Saturday evening and
Bevornl important subjects considered.
"Second Yoar Numbor Work" was
discussed by Mr. Postlowalt, Mr. Mitch
ell, Prof. Doano and Prof. Huwthorne.
Tho subject of "School Incentives"
was oponod by Miss Butler. All Incen
tives are either natural or artificial.
Artificial incentives, prlzo giving and
per cent, murking are injurious; natur
ul Incentives, praise, interest and a do
sire to achieve good character are bene
ficial. In this connection Mr. Mitchell spoko
of tho Influence of the teacher, as ho Is
tho child's Ideal, tho pupil will en
deavor to bocomo like him. Ho also
spoke favorably of busy work and per
cent, marking. As an argument against
the per cent, system Prof. Doano gavo
his cxperlenco with a class of young
ladies and gentlemen whom he was eX'
ainlnlng for the first. Having request
ed thom to recolve no asslstunce ho
askod that no ono having received help
should glvo In a paper. From the class
of fifteen he recolvod three papers.
Tho class had been trained In dishon
esty by tho per cont. system, and were
indignant because the papors wore not
accepted. The honest pupil may re
ceive the low grado while tho dishonest
ono rocoiyos tho high grade. The goa
oral sentiment was agulnst the system.
Messrs. Hawthorne, Mitchell and
Dempsey rendered a musical selection
entitled "Where you see the Angels
Stand." A reading, "Tho Rlmo of ye
Ancient School-master," was glvon by
Miss Whltmore. Following this was a
double quartette.
'History and the Teacher's Prepara
tion for Teaching It" was discussed by
Mr. Postlowalto. Before beginning its
study the subject should be read con
tlnuously and be understood by the
pupil. When studied, history should
not bo memorized in the words of the
book, if the facts are related they ap
peal to reason. In order to teach his
tory the teacher must know the subject
thoroughly and not depend upon the
text-book.
The subjects in the question box were
"What influence has the teacher's ap-
pearanooV" "How determine the stand'
Ing of pupils of an ungraded school when
said Bchool Is to be graded?" "What
text-books are needed by a pupil nine
years old?" "To what extent should
history and geography be committed?"
To this lost question Prof. Hawthorne's
answer was an emphatlo "Not at all."
