A new bridge is needed over the Sandy Lick creelr at the foot of Main street. The present structure was suitable In Ite day, but it has become unsafe for the heavier traffio now pas sing over it, and besides la In very poor repair. Sandy Lick Creek having been proved a "navigable Btream" recently, It might be the proper thing to ask the state for an appropriation to build a substantial and permanent struo'ure over the stream. There Is no bridge In the county over which more traffic passes In the course of a year than this one. Eleanora's Italian colony came to the front with a nice juicy scandal last week.

A number of bands were present and a red light parade was the spectacular feature of the evening. . Parties who have baen watching the progress of work on the new Franklin St Clearfield branch of the New York Central rallraad have reached the con clusion that the present plan Is to oon nect with the Pennsylvania railroad at Brookvllle and use the Pennsy tracks through to Keating. Grading la said to have been done at Brookvllle which will enable the company to con nect lines in a very short period. While this arrangement will not mean as much to Reynoldsvllle as If an In dependent line was laid, owing to traffio agreements usually exacted over leased lines, it will still mean a considerable increase of local railroad employes.

' THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS America's best beloved statesman, in literature, so . the program best things that have been said Wrtttdn Stella Fisher .Cella Yost by Miss Black and Miss Robinson xOne of the Brightest Men in Congress. With the exception of the Speaker, no man in Congress is more famed for bis witty epigrams and bright compar Isons than Jonathan P. Dolliver. It was be who described the attitude of the democrats on the tariff question as that of "men emptying bard coal ash os In a high wind, with tbelr eyes shut and their backs to the subject." ' "Mugwumps," be said on another oc casion, "treat their consciences like the stock in trade of a baking powder com pany; tbeysolemn'y Insist that every body's conscience has alum In It except their own." It was he who first characterized Major McKlnloy as "the advance agent of prosperity." But Mr. Dolliver is more than a hu morist. His speeches are noted for their breadth and thoroughness, as well as for their striking interest. He has spoken In every large city in the coun try. Among bis most noted addresses were those at the McKlnley banquet In MadUon Square Garden b 1890, at the Lincoln dinner of the Republican club In New York, before the Boston Mer chant's Association and to the veterans on Momorlal Day at Gettysburg and at Arlington. 8enator Dolliver will speak in Assem bly hall, Reynoldsvllle, In March, be ing the last number of the public school lecture course.
