fellow, therefore, there has not been

Policeman Called.
The law abiding citizens of Railroad
street found it necessary to call a po
liceman about nine o'clock Sunday
night to restore peace and quietness in
that neighborhood, the disturbance
being caused by some young fellows
who would blush to have their names
published and a statement made of tho
why fore of their presenoe In that Im
mediate section.' It Is high time that
the moral conditions ot Reynoldsvllle
receive special attention. . There are a
few denizens here that It would be bet
ter for the town if they were compelled
to move out of Reynoldsvllle.

WATCHMAN KILLED.
Thomas Neal, of North Point, Run Down
By a Freight Train Monday NrfhV .
Thomas Neal, the B., R. & P.'nlght
watchman at Robinson Cut, botween
Loop and Goodvllle, was struck and al
most instantly killed Monday nlgbt
about 2 30, by a freight train coming
east. Neal lived near North Point and
had a shanty at Robinson Cut. That
night he gave shelter to two tramps,
and when he heard the train coming he
ran out In the darkness and across the
railroad tracks. The train was nearer
than the watchman had calculated, for
it was upon him as soon as be
stepped on the tracks. The tramps
heard him scream and rushed out, but
could do nothing until the train had
passed. Then tbey found Mr Neal and
carried him into the little house and
one hastened to Loop and informed
William Barrett of tho accident. When
they returned to the shanty Mr. Neal
was dead. HisBkullwas fractured and
legs were broken. The next morning
the body was taken to the Neal borne
at North Point. .Tue dtoeas d was
about 63 years old and has been watch
man at that crossing for over two years.
He was the eon of Abram Neal and a
brother of Andrew Neal of this place.

Creight. Another Legal Holiday.
The State Senate baa passed finally
the House bill making October 12 a
legal holiday, to be known as Columbus
Day, the Idea being that Christopher
Columbus was born on that day. It
would seem that the aonlvnrsary ot
the birth of the man who discovered
America Bhould ba properly celebrated,
but nobody' knows the day, nor the
month, nor the year In which Columbus
was born. The cyclopedias, dictionaries
and biographies agree .that the great
navigator came into this world some
where between 1436 and 1457. The
most trustworthy evldeno seems to
show that be was born not long before
March 25, 1440. But that U really Im
material. Punxsutawney Spirit.
