cis D. Smith. Mr. Johnston has not

vllle. Messrs. McClure and Smith, who
are now proprietors of the mammoth
hardware store, are genlul, gentleman
ly follows, who are well known in this
section of the country, and have many
warm friends.

land 2 met at the office of Dr. James
Bee Neale lost Wednesday ovenlng and
elected Frank J. Black, ex-newsnaper
man, ex-assistant postmaster and now
proprietor of Hotel McConnell, chief of
tho fire departments, and Mayor
Peter Robertson assistant chief. As

was foreman of Fire Co. No. 2 a short
time when he resigned to accept the

Greater Reynoldsvllle.
We hove been reliably Informed that
a number of prominent citizens of West
Reynoldsvllle, who were opposed to that
town becoming a part of the Reynolds
vllle borough, but preferred to make it
a separated borough, would not object
now to annexation with this borough.
That would be the proper thing to do.
It is all virtually one town anyhow, why
keep up two boroughs? Annexation
would be a better thing for both
boroughs, we think. Prescottvllle is so
closely connected with Reynoldsvllle
that strangers cannot tell where the
one ends and the other begins. Why
not annex Prescottvllle also?

MINERS ASK FOR A REDUCTION.
Pick Men Will Work for 9e Cent The
Sprague Tipple Abandoned.
The pick miners at tbe Sprague mine
have been getting 40 cents per ton for
drawing pillars, and the machine miners
get 25 cents for the same work, conse
quently most of the work was done by
the machine men, the plok men only
getting about one day a week. Lack of
work and the guant wolf of want lurk
ing around very closely to their family
circles, resulted la the pick men of tha
Sprague mine, Rathmcl, holding a meet
ing one evening last week and deciding
to ask tbe company for a reduction
from 40 to 30 cent for pick mining and
more work to do. It was tho Intention,
so we have been informed by General
Manager Robinson, to let the plok men
In the Sprague look for work elsewhere,
but at the men's request have deolded
to give them more work at 30 cents per
ton, 5 cents more than the work can be
done for with tho machines. This re
duction only applies to the pick men In
the Sprague.
The Sprague mine, so far as shipping
coal from that opening, has become a
thing of the past. The last coal was
weighed at the Sprague tipple Saturday.
Hereafter all tbe coal from tbe Sprague
mine will come out through the rope
haulage at Big Soldier. The tipple
will be torn down at the Sprague mine
and all the railroad tracks around tbe
mines will be taken up. Coal has been
shipped from the Sprague mines about
fifteen or sixteen years and an Immense
amount of "black diamonds" have been
taken out at that opening during that
time.
The Henry mine, near Rathmel,
which furnished coal to the Jefferson
and Clearfield Coal and Iron Co., has
been shut down indefinitely.
Tho Bloomlngton Coal Company
mines have been started and a small
amount of coal Is being shipped from
that mine at present. The output will
soon be Increased. The married men
of Rathmel are securing work as fast as
possible in these new mines.

sey ordered an engine out, sent for
Detective Frank P. Adelspergor, they
