took several hours to run from Punxsu
tawney to Reynoldsville. Tho snow
plow was continually in use Saturday

Dwelling Burned Wednesday,
Wednesday afternoon of this week,
about half past one o'olock, the word
was passed along Main street that tbe
fine dwelling of H. G. Verstino, located
on South Pickering street, Brookville,
was on fire. Soon after word came that
It could not be saved and a little later
the flames were seen as they broke out
trough the windows and roof of the
building. The fire caught In the sew
ing room upstairs, presumably from a
small gas stove. When first noticed a
few buckets of water would have put
tho fire out, had tho water been at hand.
In a few minutes the fire gained such
headway it could not be extinguished.
When the hose was attached to the fire
plug nearby there was not force enough
to throw a stream onto the blazo. Near
ly everything In the house was saved,
Including furniture, clothing, fixtures,
etc. The houso was an excellent one
and the loss will roach $8,000 or over.
We understand there Is no insurance.

Talking Hospital.

JUDGE REED SUSTAINED.
Judgment of Jefferson County Court In
Case ol Verstine vs. Yeaney Affirmed
The Supreme Court has handed down
an opinion sustaining Judge Reed In
the case of Verstine vs. Yeaney. The
question involved in this case is a very
important, one to land owners. Mr.
Stamey, of Reynoldsville,. took an op
tion on certain coal land but failed to
comply strictly with the terms of his
option. Later when the land became
worth several times the amount it had
been optlmn d for, Mr. Stamey under
took to enforce his option. The Jeffor
son county court held that It was void
and could not be enforced, and it is this
decision which tho Supremo Court has
just affirmed.
Judgo Reed has been on the bench
now about ten years, and during this
time there have been but twenty-three
appeals taken from his decisions.
Twenty-one of these have been affirmed
and two reversed. In view of the large
number of cases which have been beard
and disposed of since Judge Reed went
on the bench, this Is a most remarkable
record. It Is remarkable both In tha
small number of appeals taken and the
few reversals of those that were taken.
It may well be doubted whether there
is another judge In the state who has a
better record than this in tbe apellate
courts. Brookville Republican.

NovelDrama.
"Why Girls Leave Home" is the
novel title of a drama which will be
soon at tbe Reynolds opera house on
Monday evening, Jan. 16. Tbe theme
is taken from life and so handled Jthat
nature flows through every 'part of it.
Tbe laugh, the tear, tbe awsome sus
pense follows each other alternately
throughout, each dominating the
auditor In its own impressive way. The
plot binges upon a young girl who sub
mits to the attentions of a travelling
salesman, against the wishes of her
family. Her elder brother In particu
lar, tbe man of tbe house, takes upon
himself to rule her with a rod of Iron to
which she as resolutely objects, and out
of which grows the denoument of the
play. This Is from the hand of well
known Frank Dodge and Is claimed to
be one of his master efforts.
Think of It Mothers I
There is no place that a girl can com
mence her downfall as quickly as on the
streets or going to the depot to meet
every train that comes In. Parents who
have daughters should teach them that
there is nothing cute about making
chance acquaintances of the men they
happen to meet on the streets. DuBois
Morning Journal.
A gentleman who has resided in
Reynoldsville four months said the
other evening that he had never been
in a town where he saw so many girls
standing in hallways and dark places
along tbe streets talking to young men
as he had seen since he came to Reyn
oldsville. Think of it mothers. They
are somebodys daughters. Are your
daughters among the number ? '
