Franklin & Clearfield To Con

PROSPECT GOOD FOR
LOCAL FREIGHT CREWS
Passenger Station Will Prob
ably Be Erected, Or B., R.
& P. Station at the Foot Of
Fourth Street Leased.
There has been considerable news
paper talk about the proposed ruute
of the Franklin & ClearSeld railroad
between Brookvllle and Clearfield, and
people have become skeptical concern
leg these statements, but the time has
now come when we can safely make the
..statement that the P. R. R. tracks will
l be used from Brookvllle to Reynolds.
Vllle, the Reynoldsville & Fails Creek
tracks from Reynoldsville to Falls
Creek and the B., R. & P. tracks to
ClearSeld and theie connect with the
New York Central for eastern points.
A corps of B.. R. & P. engineers
have been surveying In this section
during the paet week to get a
connection between the P. R. R. and
R. & F. C. for the Franklin & Clear
field. It is likely the connecting switch
on the P. R. R. will be put in near the
east end of the big cut just below town
and connect with the K. & F. C. near
the freight station at foot of Fourth
street. To do thiB it will he necessary
to raise the R. & F. C. track about five
feet at that point, and probably make
it necessary to raise Main street several
feet at end of iron bridge.
There was some talk of the Franklin
.& Clearfield uelng the P. R. R. tracks
from Brookvllle to Falls Creek, but in
that case the new railroad would be
of little benefit, if any, to Reynolds
- vlllo, as the passenger and freight
trains would likely run through the
town without even stopping, but the
use of the R. & F. C. tracks will mean
much for our town. It will give us
additional passenger and freight ser
vice east and west, and this may be
a convenient place to lay over a few
railroad crews.
If this route, which now looks cer
tain, is taken the Franklin & Clearfield
will either use the old B., R. & P.
station at foot of Fourth street or build
a new station, and In case a new one
is built It should be located at foot of
Main street near the Iron bridge.
Caleb Powers Next
Assembly Hall, Orator
Noted Kentucldan Will Speak
In Reynoldsville Tuesday
Evening, April 20.
Caleb Powers, the young Kentuoklan
nd ex-Secretary of State, around
whom all the political rancor, strife
and hatred of Kentucky partisan poli
tic have fathered, has within the past
eight years attracted more attention
because of his untiring fight tor justice
than a jy other man in America publio
life. If r. Powers was born and reared
on a farm near Barbourvllle, Knox
County, Kentuckey. By close applica
tion to study he managed to obtain a
splendid education, having graduated
with honors before entering publio life
An the Law department of two of the
Nation's greatest Universities.
Mr. Powers has made a National rep
utation as a brilliant lecturer. His
lectures are attracting unusual atten
tion and everywhere he goes be Is met
with a (reat outpc ring of people. He
fcas fought an unusual battle against
all kinds of corrupt political combina
tions, partisan oot-ts, packed juries
and perjured witnesses. Cool, deliberate
and without feeling of partisan hatred,
be portays the story of the most
wonderful career In the annuals of
history. He is extremely pleasant and
convincing on the platform and is
rapidly gaining fame as one of the
Ration's greatest orators. There is
nothing In his lecture that will offend
the most rabid partisan.

GETTING in front and' keeping there that's the way
Marathon races are won. Its the way anything else in
this world is won; ancl no man who wants to win can afford
to neglect anything, great or small, which may contribute to
his being in front.
You want to win success in your undertakings, whatever they may be; and one of the things which every
man needs and ought to.be sure of, is good clothes; they help your appearance, add to your effectiveness, make you
feel more successful; and there's a lot in the way a man feels who is trying to win.

are in front among all the clothes-makers of the world; they got there by making clothes right; by correct style, by
perfect and thorough tailoring, by using none but all wool fabrics when so many makers think part cotton is good
enough for you, -
We sell these clothes because we believe they're that kind of clothes; because we want to keep in front.
.They're the sort of clothes that are a benefit and a profit to all concerned; to you who wear them most of all.
If you're in front and want to stay there; or if you want to get there, here are the clothes for it.
