Clearfield and Franklin Railroad.
Some newspapers are predicting that
the Franklin & Clearfield branch of the
Lake Shore railroad will only be built
between Franklin and Brookville and
that the P. R. R. track will be uscfl
from Brookville to Hopkins, R. & F. C.
track from Hopkins to Falls Creek and
B., R. & P. track from Falls Creek to
Clearfield where connections will be
made with the Beech Creek. We don't
believe the P. R. R. track will be used
between Hopkins and Brookville, but
do think the new railroad will be built
to connect with the R. & F. C. near
Hopkins. If the P. R. R. track is to be
used between Brookville and Hopkins
there will have to be conslderabl)
change made In the grade of the
Franklin & Clearfield at Brookville from
what it is now, as grado Is away above
the P. R. R. at that point. The new
road will cross the P. R. R. three times
between Brookville and Hopkins if
built on present survey.
Birthday Surprise Party. '
Saturday, October 21st, there was a
birthday surprise party pulled olT at
the residence of Mr. and Mrs. D. E.
Stanford near Hiimly Valley, Pa. Tho
day was intended foi Mr. Stanford's
sixty-fifth birthday. The morning was
chilly and Mr. Stanford was sitting near
a warm stovo, mentally dreading ap
proaching winter, when friends and
neighbors from far and near began as
senbllng. The thought of a birthday
party had not dawned upon him, but
when Liveryman E. C. Hums' big rig
droyo Into the yard filled with people,
he began to wonder what it all meant,
and he called a confidentRil friend to
one sido and Inquired of him what It
meant. He was Informed that his
birthday was Nov. 22, but on account of
that date being so late In the fall, and
would probably be rough weather, that
his friends had decided to give him a
birthday surprise party October 21st.
When dlnnor hour came tho contents of
well filled baskets were set on a long
table and tho table was then surrounded
by those present. Grace was said by
tho venerable Robert Stevenson and all
partook of a hearty meal.
Mr. Stanford was tho , recipient of
many useful and valuable prosonts.
Lawyer Daniel Brennan, of Brookville,
made the presentation speech. Among
the presents, too numerous to mention,
was an envelope containing a hand
some sum of money. Mr. Brennan,
in Ills discourse, congratulated Mrs.
Stanford on her surrounding and
sidd : "You are certainly a happy
woman." To Mr. Stanford ho said:
"I am an old man and in all my
life I havo never seen a step-father ac
corded tho honor of children, without
one exception, that is accorded to you.
You are certainly a happy man."
Mr. Stanford accepted tho tokens of
friendship In a few well spoken remarkB
and thanked tho donors for their friend
ship, Ac. As tho day was drawing to n
closo tho guests departed In groups,
wishing Mr. and Mrs. Stanford many
happy returns of tho day just past.
Mr. Stanford is halo and strong for a
man of his ago, and his good wife, a
littlo his senior, is well preserved.

appreciative audiences ever assembled

Is art. Reynoldsville has had a band al
most continuously for 25 years. "Jim"
Townoy, now the Hon. James A. Town

High School Lecture Course.
All arrangements for tho nigh
School lecture course have boon com
pleted and the people of Reynoldsville
have a rich treat in store for them this
coming winter. It is reasonably ex
pected that tho coming attractions will
provo tho most instructive and enter
taining of any singlo courso hold In our
town. Tho course consists of five num
bers and Its chief merit is that every
number Is of a high standard and not
that somo poor attractions are brought
to support one or two star numbors. It
Is assured that any two numbors are
well worth the prlco of the courso. The
attractions have variety as well as
worth and wjll includo a prominent
rnusicnl company, three lecturers, who
are among tho very best tho lecture
bureaus have to offer, and a popular en
tertainer who stands highest In his pro
fession. These attractions wore secured
at a rate within our means only by
waiting until very lato in tho season
and taking open dates. The numbers
aro selected to glvo tho highest worth
and entertalnmont possible to all pa
trons. However tho prices will remain
the Bnmo as In previous years.
The Cleveland Ladles' Orchestra, the
first uiimbor, has won high praise
whorover they have appeared. Their
success has been unusual and their ef
forts have been received with enthus
iastic appreciation by largo and critical
audiences In our leading cities.
Tho second number of tho courso will
be a lecture by Dr. Edward Burton Mc
Dowell called "Panama In Picture and
Proso," and illustrated by moving pic
tures. This Is a most up-to-date lecturo.
Panama and her canal has had a vory
romantic1 history. It is a romance of
squandered millions and of corruption
which tolls liko fiction. This subject
is of vital interest to all Americans
whoso nation Is to-day turning this
fiction Into fact. Dr. McDowell Is a
noted lecturer, traveler and correspond
ent and his lecture will be exceedingly
interesting.
In the lecture field there Is none moro
popular and successful than Dr. A. A.
Willits, known as- "The Apostle of
.Sunshine," and as "Tho Platform's
GrandiOld Man." For half a century
he has beon In the front rank of orators
and lecturers and has received the most
flattering praise and receptions of any
lecturer before the public to-day. We
aro fortunate in his boing brought to
Ueynoldsvillo.
The entertainment number of the
courso will be Maro, "tho prince of
magic. His mysterious, wizard-like
doings have astounded and delighted
tho most skeptical and critical aud
iences throughout thocountry. Lecture
courso managers have hailed him as
tho most pleasing and thoroughly en
tertaining number they had booked for
thoir courso. Maro has a national rep
utation and Is one of the highest priced
attractions the lecture bureaus present.
Tho last number on tho course will be
lecture by tho author, orator, travel
er, Dr. John Morrltlo Driver. Dr.
D-lvor Is pastor of the Peoples' Church
of Chicago. Ho is promlnont as a
scholar, having studied in Boston, Leip
sic and Romo. As an author he has at
tained high achievement in his books,
"A Romance of Italy and America" and
"Purple Poaks Remote." Vast audiences
throng McVicker's thoatro every Sun
day morning, in the heart of Chicago, to
hear him discuss tho foremost problems
of tho day. Ho can interest. and in
struct any audience.
The schools, in presenting the above
array of talent at so small a price be
liove they deserve the patronage and
Biipport of everyone. The tickets are
ow on sale at Stoke & Felcht Drug Co.
store. The first number appears
Novomber first. You can ill afford to
miss this course.
"Dora Thorne."
One of the most Important announce'
ments of the current season in the dra
matic field of popular priced amuse
ments is the dramatization of "Dora
Thorne," Bertha M. Clay's novel of in
ternatlonal fame. "Dora Thorne" is one
of the most successful novels of Its kind
that was ever written. A story full of
humor and pathos, well defined charac
ters, and sincere heart Interest; "Dora
Thorne" is Indeed full of material to
make one of the most successful of the
many dramatized novels.
Messrs Rowland and Clifford, the well
known and popular amusement caterers
will place this play before the public
with a remarkable cast of players and
beautiful scenic equipment. "Dora
Thorne" will be seen at Reynolds opera
house on Nov. 3. Further notice in

Woman's Judgment.

day common sense, and profits by her
own experience and that of others, will

fection in stove construction that is not
found in other makes. We would be
pleased to have you examine them and

ment, bold and guaranteed by Reyn
