Andrew August Klelnhans, a respect ed citizen of Reynoldsvllle, died at his homo on Main street on the evening of Wednesday, November 10th, after long, weary months of Intense suffering. Thirteen months ago he was stricken with painter's paralysis, which finally resulted in breaking the silken thread of life. A few weeks ago Mr. Klelnhans hud regained sufficient strength to get around a little on crutches, which Inspired lilin with hope that he might yet be restored to health, but two weeks ago he took a relapse, and then hope vanished. Through tho long weeks of suffering he was patient nnd uncomplaining. On Wednesday he seemed to realize that the sands of life were almost run, and yet ho did not fear the "valley of death." Ho called his wife and son, Arthur,, into ills bed room on the afternoon of that day and had them bow at his bedside while ho offered an earnest and pathetic petition to tho Heavenly Father, asking Hltn to watch over and protect his wife and child. About 5.00 p. m., his eyesight failed and his cars were deaf to the voice of loved ones, and thus he lingered until 8.30 P. M., when dissolution took place. August Klelnhans was born In Youngs- town, Ohio, March 2(ith, 1857, and was 40 years, 7 months and 23 days old when he died. He came to Reynoldsvllle in 1870. His occupation was coal mining, which he was compelled to abandon four years ago on account of falling health. He then began painting and kept at it until disabled by painter's paralysis, thirteen months ago. Mr. Klelnhans was married to Sarah Margaret Mar shall, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. K. Marshall of this placo, October 14th, 188(1. Unto them one son was born who is now nine years old. The deceased had been an active and faithful member of the Knights of Pythlus and Patriotic Order Sons of America, and was a Past Offlcor In both lodges. Theso lodges attended his funeral.

E. church at Johnsonburg, preached the sermon. The deceased and Rev. Jelbart had been warm friends and it had been Mr. Klelnhans' request that he preach his funeral sermon. A large congregation was present. After sing ing "Asleep in Jesus," prayer and scripture lesson and singing, "Jesus Lover of My Soul," then Rev. Jelbart preached an excellent sermon, full of consolation and beautiful thought, from Psa. 40: 1, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in time of trouble." The mortal remains of Mr. Klelnhans were buried in the Reynolds vllle cemetery to await the resurrection morn. The World Against Her." "The World Against Her," regarded by many as one of the best melo-dramas on the boards, will be the attraction at tho Reynolds opera house, Reynolds vllle, Friday evening, Nov. 19th. Here is a play In which pathos and comedy are artistically mingled. Laughter is supreme yet tears are brought to many eyes. No more wholesome or pure drama was ever seen, and one would in deed be lacking In human sympathy who could not enjoy this simple but powerful dramatio tale. To those with hearts full of the milk of human kind ness, a great treat Is In store. The plot, as worked out in incidents, situa tions and dialogue, appeals strongly to the sympathies of men, women and children alike, exciting the purest emotions of human nature. It abounds in scenes that are highly exciting, and In ono the husband and villain engage In a pitched battle, fighting for the possession of the child of the woman who has the "World Against Her." A large number of amusing and up-to- date specialties are Introduced to give it a flavor of fun. Marriage Licenses. The following marriage licenses were issued the past week by John S.
