Five lads of this place performed an act nf kindness Friday afternoon by rescuing a cat from a perilous position on the cross-arm of a telephone polu on Gordon alloy, near Dr. .1. B. Nealo's stable, for which they deserve com mendation. To escape from a dog the cat ran up the telephone pole sometime Friday forenoon and got out to tho ex treme end of the cross-arm and when It would attempt to get off the cross arm the electricity in the wires and in the cat's fur would comn in contact and frighten thecal buck to end of cross arm. After a number of attempts .the cat gave it up and began a pitiful mew ing. After school Thomas. Nolan, Ira Bowser, Oeorgo Gelsler, Charles Plfer and Frank King found the cat on the telephone pole and Instead of amusing themselves boy like by throwing stones at poor pussy they took pity on the fell no. Thomas Nolan volunteered to climb the smooth pole, which was no easy job, and bring the cat down, but when he got to tho top of pole he dis covered that he could not get down with the cat In one hand, and with one leg over the cross-arm he rested until a consultation was held, which resulted In tho four boys on turra flrmo getting a blanket and each one taking a corner and holding it so Thomas could drop pussy into it. The cat was safoly land ed, but it did not tarry long to show It gratitude for the rescue. It scooted up the alley as lively as if a half dozen dogs were after it. It was a Success. The "household fajr" given on the second floor in the Reynoldsvlllo Hard ware Co.'s new brick block Inst Friday and Saturday, afternoon and evening, by the ladles of tho Presbyterian Work Society, was a success and added $80.00 to the Society's bank account. Booths were nicely arranged whore, fancy and common, everyday articles were sold. The home-made candy booth was well patronized. The "art gallery," under the auspices of the King's Daughters, was another attractive feature of the "household fair." No pretension was made towards ser ving supper, but wafflos and hot coffoa were served to persons desiring them any time during both evenings. The waffles sold like "hot cakes," and was source of considerable money for the society. The one waffle iron was kept very busy trying to meet the demands for waffles. The Inclement weather Saturday afternoon and evening was not for the best interests of the society, and all things considered $80.00 was a snug sum to make out of the "fair." "Drummer Boy of the Rappahannock." The entertainment given In tho opera house last Friday night under the au spices of the Woman's Relief Corps by home talent and Major R. H. Hender shot and son, was grooted with a fair sized audience, and the entertainment was very good. Major Hondershot is a whole entertainment himself. The Im itations of a locomotive starting and hauling a train, and the naval battle between the Americans and Spaniards at Manila, were certainly masterpieces. It was well worth the price of admis sion to hear the Major play the drum. Major is also a good alngor. He fired some "hot shots" at some of our town's people during the entertainment. The home talent performed their part of the entertainment in a creditable manner. Major Hendershot, the original drum mer boy of the Rappahannock, went to the army whon eleven years old, was taken a prisoner when twelve years old and was wounded before he was four teen years old. Property Owners Liable.

If you would learn something, read It. Stoke, the druggist,' Antl-Swearlng Club. Editor Star: I noticed In the Pittsburg Tivir last week that a club of young men had formed In the city of Altoona for the purposo of preventing swearing among themselves and others. This is very commnndublo, and it is hoped that not only Altoona. but other, places may be benefited. Everyone admits that swear ing is a senseless and contemptible form of speech, only the language of liars, who fuel that they must attest to each statement they make, with a string of oaths, degrading to speaker and shock ing to the moral hearer. No employer of any standing among businos men will tuke Into his service for a position of trust a man given to swearing for swearing denotes the existence In the Individual of faults and habits danger ous to a position of fidelity. In Reyn oldsvlllo, as in other towns, one cannot pass through Main street of an evening without thuir ears being assailed by numerous oaths from boys and would-be men. The penalty, as fixed by laws, reads: "If any person of the age of sixteen years, or upwards, shall profanely curse or swear by the name of God, Christ Jesus or the Holy Ghost, every person so offending being thereof convicted, shall forfeit and pay the sum of sixty seven cents for every such profane curse or oath; and in cose he or she shall re fuse or neglect to pay the said forfeit ure, they shall be committed to the proper county prison not exceeding twenty-four hours for every such of fense." Now a club of young or old men in Reynoldsviile could be formed and much good would result if an antl-swearlng movoment would be . started and it would meet with the encouragement of all right-minded citizens. Ask any por son of prominence in business or hand ling any public offloe what they think of the swearing habit, and you will find all condemn It as the useless lariguuge of cowards, whose oaths choke In their throats when faolng death. Citizen. Prominent Visitor. On Wednesday, 15th Inst., County Commissioners Samuel States, W. C. Murray and J. J. Hinderllter, of Brook vllle, Pa., came over, In company with their architect, Harry Parks, of Ridg way, Pa., to examine the Clearfield County Home, with the Idea of adopt ing plans and specifications for the County Home to be erected in Jefferson county by authority of the last election, when the "poor house question" carried by a good vote. In company with the Clearfied Commissioners, Woolrldge, Davis and Waring, a careful Inspection of the "Home" was made and the visit ors were loud In tholr praise of the man agement of the same.
