E. local preacher of this place, Is often imposed on, perhaps thoughtlessly, and he submits without complaining. Rev. McEntlre Bunports himself and family by working In his shop. He is frequently called out to conduct funeral serlcos, which he never refuses if possible for him to go, and sometimes he has to hire a livery rig. Now the imposition la this: He loses time in his shop and often has to pay money out of his own pocket for livery hire. People who call him out of town to con duct funeral should at least pay the livery hire. It is not right to ask him to lose time from his work and pay for livery rig.

Dunsmore, Sr., of West Reynoldsville, received a letter Satur day which was written Sept. 0 at New port, R. I., by his son, Duncan M. Duns more, Jr., an eleotrician on the cruiser,. Colorado, In which Duncan gives an ac count of the trip of the "Colorado" from New York City to Oyster Bay, which, we publish below: We left Tompkinsville at 1.00 p. to:.. Wednesday, Aug. 29, and bad a pleasant-, run until we ran Into a fog off Montauk Point at midnight. At 1.00 p. m. Thursday the fog lifted and we proceed ed down the sound. We arrived at Smlthtown Bay, eight miles east of Oyster Bay, at 8.00 p. m. that day. There we found the new battleBhlpB, "Louisiana," a sister ship to the "Con necticut," and the sister ships "Rhode Island," "New Jersey" and "Virginia,'' also three coU'ers, one destroyer and) supply ship, Celtic. The next day the following ships came In; Battleships, Maine, Missouri, Kentucky, Kearearge Alabama, Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa; -protected cruisers, Minneapolis, Denver, DesMolnes and Lacoma; destroyers, Lawrence, Popkins, Worden, Stewart, MacDonough and Truxton; troop ship, Yankee. Saturday was spent In painting ships and cleaning up. Sunday the entire fleet moved down to Oyster Bay and were later joined by the monitors "Puritan," '"Nevada," "Arkansas "Florida," torpedo boats, "Tingey,'' "Whipple," "Morri" and three others, alsnl "Dolphin," "Yankton," two sub marines and their tender, the "Uola". Monday, Sept. 3rd, we were reviewed by the President passing up and down be tween the lines on the Mayflower. Each ship fired 21 guns as the review starter! and 21 again as he passed. The papera in writing of it said there was more noise than Jat a naval banle. We used three pounuers only for saluting, what would they say if they h ard a 12 inch gun? A great many excursion boata were arouna. but were not allowed inside the fleet limits, to tbt-ir 'great dii appointment. That evening all the battleships and1 armored cruisers were illuminated by stringing lights (electric) along the rail, stacks, masts and six foot letters of the ships came on the bridge. Weelectric lans certainly bad ourhatds full riggin? It up, but as I looked at the beautiful eight that evenirs I thought it was about worth it. as i- certainly was a fine Bight, and o?.e that I will never forget. Duncan. JJ3I PROGRESSIVE DINNER PARTY.

Russell Conwefl, says: "People have no business to be poor." He also says: "Whenever there is a need there is a fortune." Reynoldsville has a need which other people are supplying. They are making a fortune by furnish ing what we have failed to procure lor ourselves. Our annual cost for natural gas exceeds fifty thousand dollars. Is this not a stupendous drain on our fin ances? Is tbere not a fortune in it for the people who recognized our needs? If by spending one-half our annual cost in drilling we can procure enough to supply our own needs, is tbere not a fortune in it for us. Do you know of a more promising Investment? Think it over, no doubt Conwoll Is right. . "Wa have no business to be poor." Our acres of Black Diamonds are being carried away and the profits enjoyed by non residents. Let u seek the "Acres of Diamonds" that still remain undiscov ered at home. W ill Call. ' - i- - Fall Bhoes at Millirens.
