Big Land Slide.
In the early days of tho Low Grade
Div. of the A. V. R'y tho company
could always expect a big land slide
every spring somewhere on tho road be
tween Red Bank and New Bethlehem,
but of late years tho hills have not been
trying to run over tho railroad Into tho
crock. Last Wednesday morning a big
slido was found near Lawsonham. A
largo crew of men were put to work and
they worked all day and In the evening
they had a larger slide before them
than when they began. About two
hundred feet of tho track was covered
to the depth of from twenty to thirty
feet with stone and dirt. All the sec
tion men on tho road wero gathered up
and taken to the slide and It was not
until Friday morning that tho track
was cleared enough to allow trains to
pass over It.
On tho Malu line of tho A. V. R'y
there were a number of slides and wash
outs. Relief for the Cubans.
Jacob King, aged 85 years, raised
$35.00 the past week for the relief of
the starving and suffering Cubans. The
monoy and list of tho names of the sub
scribers wore sent to New York Mon
day. We would have published the
names on this list but they were sent
away before we asked for them.
A collection amounting to something
like eleven dollars was taken up In tho
Baptist church Sunday for the Cubans,
and next Sunduy collections will be tak
en up in the Baptist and Methodist
Episcopal Sunday schools for the same
cuuso.
An appeal was made through the
ool urn us of The Star and Volunteer
last week by Mayor Stoke for aid for
the destitute Cubans, and a subscription
book has been opened at Stoke's drug
store. We stated that we would pub
lish the names of all persons who would
contribute to this fund. The contribu
tions up to last evening are; H. Alex
Stoke, $10.00, L. M. Simmons, $5.00,
Richard Taafe 50 cents, V. R. Pratt
$5.00, Mrs). James A. Tyson $1.00, Mrs.
A. W. Mulhollan $1.00, Miss Lizzie
Brlabln $1.00.
High Waters Do Damage.
We mentioned last week that the
Sandy Lick creek had overflowed Its
banks and the small streams hereabouts
were on tho rampage, but the creek did
not reach Its highest stage until
Wednesday evening. The lowlands
above and below town were Inundated,
and the peoplo living on "poverty flat"
and on the west nnd of Jackson
street could only got out of their homes
in skiffs. The Ross House had a couple
of inches of water on the first floor, and
It was Impossible to walk from the
bridge to A. V. R'y, as the water was
throe feet deep on the street In some
places. A couple of enterprising boys
run a skiff to carry people over for a
nickel, and the hotel 'buses were always
crowded going to and from trains.
Some of tho dwellings on railroad
street, nenr Soldier Run, were Inundated
and the families were compelled to va
cate their homes.
Tho dam at tho old Swartz mill, on
Trout Run, hursted, causing some
dnmago to property. The mill dam at
Prescottville bursled In three places,
causing considerable damage.
The supervisors of Winslow township
have quite a number of washouts to re
pair on various portions of the township
roads, and two bridges to replace, one
over Trout Run and anothor at Big
Soldier. It will cost the township be
tween $300 and $400 to repair the dam
ages done by the high water.
The Reynoldsvllle & Falls Creek Rail
way was submerged under a couple of
feet of water from the west end of Jack
son street to the company store and a
number of places between Reynoldsvllle
nnd Falls (.'reek. It was Impossible to
get trains over tho road on Wednesday
and Thursday, and consequently there
was no coal shipped out from Tuesday
until Friday.
Another Joint Convention Called.
Jerry Skchan, Thomas Gulllford, of
Reynoldsvllle, und William Ponhnll, of
Httthmul, were the delegates from the
& C. C. & I. Co. works In this section
to the miners' and operators' joint con
ventlon held at Alteon a last week.
George Harris, of this plaoe, presided
ut the convention. . There were not
enough oKrators represented for the
convention to take any action or get
matters adjusted between capital and
labor. W. L. Robinson, goneral man
ager of tho J. fc C. C. & I. Co. and the
B., R.' Jc P. C. & I. Co., was at tho con
vention. Before adjourning It was de
cided to call another jidnt convention
to be held at Altoonaon April 5th, In
order to give the operators anothor op
portunity to moot the miners' represent
atives. If this convention does not
result In a general ngreemont between
tho minors and operators, a general
strlko will take place on the 0th of
April, when 115,000 miners will lay down
their tools. It Is to be hoped that all
the operators will meet the miners'
delegates April 6th and the differences
between employer and employees will be
satisfactorily adjusted.
Eight Million Now In.
There are now about eight million
foot of logs in the dam at Hopkins mill,
two miles below Reynoldsvllle, and the
mill men experienced somo difficulty in
keeping the logs from getting away
from the dam during tho high water
last week. Of those eight million four
million wore left over from last year
and the other four million were floated
to the dam last month from Degnan &
McDonald's log job above town a few
miles. These gentlemen have ovor two
million moro ready to flout td Hopkins
and will out ut. least five' million more
to supply tho mill with fifteen million
for tho season's sawing. Most all tho
logs floated to the mill have been hem
lock.
Degnan & McDonald will build two
miles of an extention to their railroad
at Sandy Valley to roach a large timber
tract seven miles north of Sandy Valley.
This week Degnan & McDonald will
haul a half million foet of hardwood
logs from Sandy Valley to Hopkins with
thoir "dinky" engine over the A. V.
R'y.
Waded Out.
Thursduy evening a well dressed gen
tleman, with un overcoat on his arm,
started to go to the A. V. R'y for the fl.40
train and whon he arrived at tho bridge
tho 'buses had gone over and the boys
with the skiff were at the other end of
the street. He was in too much of
hurry to wait for the skiff and he made
an attempt to get ovor on the floating
sidewalks and Horpel's picket fence. He
was getting along fairly well until he
came In contact with a barbed wire fence
and then there was nothing left for him
to do but to entangle himself from the
wire fence and try to get back to the
bridge or wade out and catch bis train.
which was ready to start. He resolved
to do the latter and he waded out and
got on the train with wet legs and
rufllod temper.

. M. Woodward Will Soon be Postmas
ter and E. T. McOaw Ex-Postmatfter.
In a day or two A. M. Woodward
111 be postmaster at this place.
Mr. Woodward, who wns the druggist
In the Reynolds drug store, has lived In
Reynoldsvllle almost a dozen years and
Is well known In tho town and commu
nity. He was born in Indiana connty.
Ho has been a druggist twenty-one
years. He spent considerable tlmo In
Indiana and New Bethlehem before
coming to this place. Mr. Woodward
Is a genial and accommodating gentle
man and will certainly make an excel
lent postmaster. It is not at all likely
that he will please everybody, for that
Is one of the Impossibilities, but we be
lieve he will please tho public generally,
and will keep the office In first-class
order.
To the praise of Postmaster Mc
Oaw we must say that for neatness and
promptness the Reyrfoldsvlllo office
has been raised to a standard second to
none In this section of Pennsylvania.
Truo, Mr. McGaw did not succeed in
pleasing all the peoplo, but even
the dissatisfied ones cannot help but
acknowledge that he kept the office in
good order and was prompt with the
malls. Mr. McGaw made a number of
changes in tho office during his post
mastership, which were greatly ap
preciated by the public. At quite an
expense he put in new casses, which
were a decided Improvement, he broke
up the practice of loafing In the office,

Not Exaggerated. .
Mrs. Dr. S. Reynolds, of this placo,
received a letter a few days ago from
her unclo, Pulaski F. Hyatt, U. S. Con
sul at Santiago, Cuba, in which ho says
the suffering In Cuba Is not exaggerated
by the newspapers of America. We
quote a fow extracts from Consul
Hyatt's letter;
"A fow weeks since I was awakened
by a rabble about my front door and on
looking out I beheld a half naked form
cold In death. The figure was in
kneeling position, head thrown back as
if In the act of supplication. A remnant
of a pair of pants and an old struw hat
wore all that covered the heap of skin
and bones. Such sights have frequent
ly greeted my morning vision.
"But, oh, tho beggars! You can have
no conceptions of their numbers.- Bo-
fore receiving provisions, I started In
by trying to give all from two to five
cents, but thoy swamped me. I still
have a few that I give a daily pittance.
"When the provisions came I organ
lzed a committee of about thirty ladies
of the first families of the city, who
divided tho city in sections, each to
look after the poor in' their own baill
wick. They carried with them quinine
pills und camphor and opium pills, and
gave them out under instructions of the
doctors; and In the matter of food, they,
gavo them a card, stating namo, date,
number of street, number In family, eto
These tickets would admit them to pass
through a driveway Into a court in the
rea'r of tho Consulate, where six men
are engaged In giving out rations as
fust as they can handle them. It takes
six or eight isdicemon to hold the crowd
in check, und the road at times will be
blocked for a sqnaro with pooplo wait
ing for their turns, and when they get
through they get their rations for
week for euch member of their family.
Often at night there will bo quite
crowd left over that may havo been
there all day und could not' got In.
"I have had to set my face like steel
from giving any orders for rations my
self; this, first, because I don't know the
people, and second, I would bo so over
whelmed if I Ud that I would not know
whether I was on my houd or my feet."
