Franklin and Clearfield.
The DuBois Courier of Dec. 29 pub
lished a lengthy article about the pro
posed route of the Franklin & Clear
field railroad from Brookvllle to Clear
field, but did not give any autbentfo
information concerning the proposed
route. However, as the Courier stated,
the general Indications are that the
Pennsylvania line will be used between
Brookvllle and Falls Creek. The
general impression is that the new
railroad will strike the f . K li. line
west of tbe Brookvllle tunnel, where
Wainrlght.'s old w mill stood. Thn
construction of the Franklin & Clear
field railroad is well under way as far
east as Brookvllle.
Worth Looking After.
We have been reliably informed that
It is the intention of the P. R. R. Co. to
move tbe train dispatcher office from
Reynoldsville to Pittsburg in the spring
which means the removal of a number
of families from Reynoldsville, not only
including those connected with the
dispatchers office, but also means the
taking away of tbe work train from
this place. It is possible that if the
board of trade or a number of leading
business men of Reynoldsville would
take tbe matter up immediately with
the railroad officials that the company
might be persuaded to reconsider the
matter and keep the dispatchers office
at Reynoldsville. It Is worth making
an effort for, and the time to do it is
before all arrangements are made for
moving tbe office. Do it now.
Church Dedicated.
The new Methodist Episcopal church
at Wishaw, Rev. F. M. Reddlnger, of
Falls Creek, pastor, was dedicated free
of debt last Sunday night. Dr. J. Bell
Neff, of DuBois, preached tbe dedica
tion sermon. While the people of
Wishaw bad given liberally for the
building of the new church, yet there
remained a debt of (350.00 to be raised
on the day of dedication. Rev. C. W.
Miner, of Punxsutawney, raised part of
thf money during th day and in the
evening Dr. Neff. who is one of the
most successful money raisers in the Erie
conference, equal to a bishop, raised
the balance of the 1350.00 in tbe evening
before the church was dedicated. It is
a neat and comfortable frame church.

PRETTY HOME WEDDING.
J. Irvin Rea and cTHiss Laura Edna Hull
(Married Christmas Eve.
On Christmas eve, Dec. 24, 190(1, a
very pleasant event took place at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Hull on
Jackson street, it being the occasion of
the marriage of their estimable daught
er, Miss Laura Edna, to J. Irvin Rea,
of this city. The marriage ring cere
mony was performed by Kev. Dr. A. J.
Meek at 7 o'clock In the presence of
about thirty of their near friends and
relatives. The bride and groom were
ushered into the parlor to the wedding
march rendered by Mrs. A. J. Meek.
The parlor was beautifully and taste
fully deourated with evergreens and
potted plants. The bride and groom
were both elegantly attired. The bride'
carried white carnations and was at
tended by her personal friend, Miss
Minnie Dunbar, of Canton, Pa. Tbe
groom was attended by his brother,
Mr. Thomas M. Rea. Over the heads
of tbe bridal party was an evargreen
wreath and a swinging bell while in the
rear was a bank of potted plants. After
l he congratulations were extended the
guests were iuviled to tbe dining room
where a splendid repast was served and
to which all did amp'e justice. The
bride and groom are from among tbe
best families of our town and they enjoy
a large oirclo of friends who wish them
a bapny and prosperous journey
through life. Both the bride and
groom were the recipients of some very
excellent presents from their Iriends.
Box Rent Rates.
In order to provide a definite and
satisfactory ruie for the collection of
box renvB tbe post office department has
made a schedule, based upon the kind
and capacity of boxes and the gross
receipts at poetoffice, which will, be
strictly adhered to bv department in
the establishment of all box rent rates
from and after January 1, 1907. The
rate for box rent at Reynoldsville on
thiB new schedule of rateB will be aa
follows: Small call boxes 25 cents,
large call boxes 35 cents, small lock
boxeB 45 cents, medium lock boxes 60
cents, large lock boxes 75 cents.
Some people are under the impression
that Postmaster Burns is responsible
for the advance in box rent and that he
gets the receipts from these boxes.
That is not correct. The postoffice de
partment fixes tbe rental rate for boxes
and all money received for box rent is
turned over to "Uncle Sam," same as
money received for sale of postage
stamps, etc. Then don't blame the
postmaster. He is obeying orders.
Heretofore there wag no established
basis for box rent.
Passing of The Enterprise.
The Enterprise Silk Company, which
operated the silk mill at this place five
years, has quite business here, the leaso
having expired. The Enterprise Silk
Co. bad put a number of looms in tbe
mill and these looms have been shipped
to mills being operated by thisciimpany
at other places. Just how long the silk
mill will be idle Is not known at present,
but we hope the suspension will not be
long. The silk will was one of the best
industries In the town, giving employ
ment to a large number of young people
at good wages.

were mostly new and the songs were
decidedly "catchy." In fact there was
net a dull moment in tbe play. Herki
