When a man mnkes a good Item of
news for a newspaper, and then gets
mud because It is published, ho dlspluys
decidedly poor judgment, and ninety
nine times out of one hundred ho is tho
fellow that would like to read that very
samo item in tho paper if it was about
another fellow. Ex.
Three Italians had a fight near Pres
cottville Sunday evening, two against
ono. Tho one had the two arrested for
assault and battery, and they in turn
had the Ike arrested whom they had
double-teamed. All three appeared be
fore 'Squire Neff and gave bail for their
appearance at the Soptember term of
court.
Samuel Shick Butlor, aged six months,
only son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Butler,
died Sunday afternoon after an illness

consumption. Funeral services were
held at tho residence of the grandpar
ents, Mr. and Mrs. S. V. Shick. at 10.00
A. M. yesterday, conducted by Dr. C. C,
Rumberger. Interment was made in
Beulah cemetery.
Tboro's a smudge in the garden and
smoke in the air; a smell combined of
burnt leathor and hair. There's a girl
on the lawn with a rake in her hand;
there's woe and distress all over tho
land. There's carpets to beat and rugs
to shake, enough of such work to make
a man quake. There's stoves to be
moved and carpets put down; no won
ber a man wants to get out ot town.
Ex.
The remains of Carl Rumsey, young
son of Mr. and Mrs. Collins E. Rumsey,
whose death was mentioned in The
Star last week, were taken to Brook
ville Thursday forenoon for interment.
The trip was made in carriages and it
rained most all forenoon, making it not
only a sad trip but also a disagreeable
'one. As the funeral 'procession ncared
Brookvillo a number of relatives and
friends were waiting in carriages to
join the funeral train and go to the
cemetery.
The colored preacher said: "I hab
found it nesuary on account of de hard
times and degineral dificieney ob de
circulatian mejum in dls church to inter
duce my new ottermatio oollecshum
box. It's so fixed dat a half dollah or a
quarteh falls on the cushin without the
least noise. A nickel will ring a bell
dlstlntly - heard by de oongregashun,
and a suspender buttum, my fellow
mawtels, will fiah of a pistul. So you
will govern yo'selveB accordingly. Let
the oolleoshun now peroede, while I
lines a him."
Rev. H. R. Johnson, of Sharon, Pa.,
former pastor of the Presbyterian
church in this place, preached In that
church Sunday morning and evening.
Rev.. Johnson has bad poor health for a
few months and has not been doing any
work, but be expects to go to Philadel
phia in a short time to take temporary
charge of the Princeton Presby
terian ohurob in that city. He has
three or four good calls tendered him,
but has not fully decided yet wbioh one
be will aooept. It is very probable that
he will aooept one of the cull from
Philadelphia. The Reynoldsvllle con
gregation was pleased to see Rev. John
son and to hear'hlm preach again. ,
Paid In Oold.
The Allegheny Valley R'y pay car
made its monthly trip over the road
last Thursday. The employees at this
place were paid in gold, and we under
stand the men all along the line re
ceived tho "yellow stuff."
1 S I
Wotk is Being Pushed.
The work of erecting the building for
the silk mill I being pushed as rapidly
as the weather will permit. A crow of
men are at work in the stone quarry on
the hill back of 'Squire Guthrie's house
getting out stone for the foundation for
the silk mill and a largo crew of men
wore put to work yestorday on the foun
dation. Will We Celebrate?
Littlo over six weeks until the Fourth
of July and no steps taken yet for a
celebration on that day. Will Reyn
old!1 ville celebrate or not? If we have
a celebration it is high time a move was
made In that direction. There is no
good reason why we should not fittingly
observe Indepemlnnco Day In Reynolds
villo, but tho "ball'' ought to bo rolling
now.
. Forgot the Coffee Pot.
Monday afternoon Dr. James B.
Neale and A. B. Weed, of this place,
W. B. Hull, of East Brady, Dick Briney,
of Pittsburg, and W. H. Karns, of
Oakmont, went to Misqulto Creek,
Clearfield county, trout fishing. In the
excitement and flurry of getting the
fishing paraphernalia togother, the
coffee pot, fishing tackles, and a few
other minor articles were forgotten, at
least so we were Informed.
Show Car Wrecked.
Last Friday night as Walter Main's
circus train was passing through this
pluee on its way from Brookvillo to
Punxsutawney one of tho cars jumped
tho track at the A. V. U'y station and
run on the ties up to the freight house
where the heavy wagon on tho car
rolled off as the train was stoped. The
wagon und ear wero both considerably
damaged. Tho car was run on to a
siding and tho wagon was run to ono
side of tho railroad and were both left
here for repairs.
Saturday Morning Fire.
About two o'clwik Saturday morning
tho fire bell pealed out Its noteB of
alarm and the tiro companies were stion
on the streets rushing to the tire, which
was tho dwelling of Frank Llehner,
near the JolTerson Supply Co. store.
The fire had such a good start boforo
tho alarm was given that the house was
completely destroyed before tho fire
was controlled. Mr. Lichner, a Polan
der who talks poor English, informed
us that ho lost a watch, chain and all his
clothing, and that the house cost
$550.00 and be only had $400.00 insur
ance. Putting Down Heavier Rails.
As tho big guns now-a-days maku it
necessary for heavier armor plate on
battleships, so the increased capacity
of coal cars make it necessary for
heavier rails on railroads. Ten years
ago the capacity of tho largest curs
used on the R. & F. C. R'y was 40,000
ttis. and the thirty foot, 00 pounds to
the yard, rails put down at that time
wore heavy enough for the trains
hauled over the road, but now the ca
pacity of coal cars are mostly from 00,
qpo to 80,000 ttis. and tho rails of ten
years ago are too light, and the com
pany is putting in new rails. The new
ones are 45 feet long and 80 ttis. to the
yard. The now rails are now lying
along the R. & F. C. R'y ready to take
the place of the light rails.
Fight Battles With Stones.
Some of the little chaps In West
Roynoldsville have been Indulging In
rather dangerous sport. They organize
themsolves into two armies, American
and Spaniard, and the Spaniards occupy
a piece of land they call the Philippine
Islands. The Americans bombard the
Spanish forts with stones and the enemy
responds with the samo kind of pro
jectiles. Tho stone missiles fly thick,
fast and lu a reckless manner during an
engagement, but fortunately no one has
been Injured yet. Some of the "powers"
have intervened and served notice
on members of the "flying squadron"
immediately under their control that
they are not to participate' Io any
more battles. If such sport is con
tinued some of the soldiers may, as a
result, go through life minus an eye or
two.
- Candidate for Assembly.
Henry I. Wilson, a rising young law
yer of Big Run, has announced himself
us a Republican candidate for nomina
tion for Assembly. His announcement
will be found in this issue of The Star.
Mr. Wilson was In Reynoldsvllle last
Wednesday and made this olfice a
pleasant call. He is a bright looking
young man and has a good, clean record
to back bim up. There is not the least
doubt but that if Mr. Wilson gets
the nomination and is elected he will
represent his constituents conscientious
ly and for their best interests. Mr.
Wilson says if he guts enough votes to
seqd him to Hsrrlsburg he will go
there to do bis best for the people in
general aud will not go there as a "tool"
for any one man or faotlon--he is for
the people, notwithstanding any report
to the contrary. .
Sudden Death Sunday.
Roliert A. Bunch, who has been mak
ing his home with his daughter, Mrs.
Solomon 8haffer, dropped dead Sunday
about 12.20 p. m. in Mr. Shaffer's barn.
Heart failure or apoplexy caused his
sudden and unexiected death. Mr.
Bouch had not been feeling well for a
few days, but was able to be around.
He usually fed Mr. Shaffer's pigs and
had gone to the barn for that purpose
when tho silken thread of life was,
wjthout, warning, snapped asunder.
His dead body was found before it had
become cold. Robert Bouch was born
in Armstrong county, September 2nd,
182.1, making htm 74 years, 8 months
and 13 days old at the time ot his do
mlse. The deceased was left a widower
18 years ago. He was the father of
seven children, four sons and three
duughters, all whom have long since
been carried to the tomb but Mm.
ShalTer. Mr. Boueh moved from Punx
sutawney to this place over twent-y-flvo
years ago.
Funeral services wero held at the
residence of Mr. ShalTer at 2.00 P. M.
yesterday, conducted by Dr. C. C. Rum
berger, and Interment was mntlo In
Beulah cometery.
The Spinsters Return.
Tho "Spinsters Return from Oklaho
ma" was given In Centennial hall last
evening under the auspices of the La
dles' Work Society of the Presbyterian
church. Tho play is brimful of non
sensical nonsense which cannot belp
but evoke lnughter and amuse an au
dience Tho "get up" of the Spinsters
was enough of Itself to creato a broad
smile. The audience apparently on
joyed the "Spinsters" Immensoly, but
it is a play that would hurdly be enjoyed
by the samo audience two conseeutivo
nlghtB. Following are some of the mot
tos that were conspicuous on tho back
ground of the stago: "A Man's a Man
for a' that:" "A Man in your hand is
worth a dozen In the Moon:" "What Is
home without a husband;" "Novernllow
a victim to escupe;" "Oh, for a man."
The songs and recitations by littlo Got
tus Sehlablg wore vigorously encored.
Tho entertainment was better than the
first "Spinster" entertainment given
here over a year ago by the samo society.
Tho public school orchestra furn
ished music.
Cheap Excursion to Pittsburg.
Floral und art excursion to Pittsburg
on Sunday, May 22, over the A. V. R'y.
Tho train will start from Driftwood at
5.30 A. M., same as regular westbound
morning train, arriving hero ut 7.40 A.
M. Fare for round trip $1.50 from all
stations hot ween Driftwood and Royn
oldsvillo, and $1.40 from Reynoldsvllle
and all Btutions between this and Brook
villo. This is certainly a very cheap
excursion, a little over i cent per mile.
Special train will leave Union Station,
Pittsburg, at 7.30 P. M. for the return
trip. Schenley Park will be open to
visitors who may wish to visit tho floral
display In Phlpps Conservatory.
Excursion tickets will be on sale at
tho A. V. station Saturday uftornoon
and evening. Mr. Farrell requests that
all persons purchasing tickets have the
change, $1.40, if possible.
Keep to the Right
There was a bicycle collision on Main
stroet Saturday evening and one of the
"bikeB".was badly crippled, but the
riders escaped without injury. There
Is too much careless riding done on our
streets now that bioyclo riders have be
come so numerous, and it Is a wonder
there have not been more collisions.
Riders should be careful to always keep
to tho right in passing other bicyclos,
or vehicles of any kind, and then there
is little dangor of accidents. The bicy
clists on our streets rido every-whlch-way,
regardless of rulos or regulations,
and thus make it dangerous not only
for themselves but for others.
Band Grand Stand.
Will W, Wiley, manager of the Key
stone band, said to a representative of
The Star yesterday that if the citizens
of Reynoldsvllle will get permission
from John H. Corbett and fix up the
porch in front of Centennial hall the
band will give frequont evening concerts
there during the summer months. The
expense of strengthening the porch,
putting a suitable railing around It and
a sufficient number of seats on it for the
band would bo a small item if every
person would "chip in" a few pennies.
The concerts would be greatly enjoyed
by the people in general. The Keystone
plays first class muslo and produces It
in first-class stylo.

We are exceedingly grateful to the
friends and neighbors who were so kind

Died in DuBois Sunday.
Last Sunday James B. Johnson, son-in-law
of 'Squire John T. Coax, of this
place, died at bis home in DuBois after
a prolonged struggle with consumption.
His death was not unexpected. Mr.
Johnson had been engaged In the news
paper work since 1882, beginning his
journalistic career on the DuBois
('mirier. In 1883 he accepted a position
on the Pittsburg 7i'kci. Ho after
wards worked on tho Time, Lender and
Chronicle I'elfyraph. It was on the
latter paper he did his last work. In
February 1807, he went to North Caro
lina with the hopes of regaining his
health, but consumption had too firm a
hold on his constitution to be shaken off
by the balmy southland, and he re
turned to this place the following sum
mer and remained a short time and
then moved to DuBois to await the
time when his flickering light of life
would be extinguished.
J. B. Johnson was born in Indiana
county May 6th, 1840, and was, there
fore, 40 years and 0 days old. He was
married to Jennie Coax some 12 or 15
years ago, who survives him.
Circus Didn't Show Here.
A Roynoldsville correspondent to the
DuBois Express, under date of Saturday,
May 14th, says: "Walter L. Main's cir
cus showed here yesterday and left for
Punxsutawney this morning. The de
parture was delayed considerably by a
wreck at tho crossing. A car jumped
tho track and tore up the roadbed for
about 20 rods."
Walter Main's circus was in Brook
villo Friday, not in Hoynoldsvllle, and
the roadbed was not torn up, not even a
foot of It. The ties were scored a little.
