Reynoldsville Woolen Company Mill
To Be Operated Day and Night.
Reception Tendered Rev. Charles
E. Rudy Last Thursday Evening.
Embarking in the Manufacture
Of Worsted Suitings Of
Fine Quality.
LARGE ORDERS RECEIVED.
The Reynoldsville Woolen Company,
which has been manufacturing flannels
and all kinds of woolen goods for many
.years, has put in new machinery and is
now equipped to manufacture a high
Wade of worsted, silk finish, goods (or
men's suitings. The samples were only
shown a few days ago and the company
already has received enough orders
from some of the best firms In the coun
try to run the mill full capacity night
nd day for four months. It Is the ex
pectation now to have the mill in oper
ation in a short time and to run it night
and day, three eight-hour shifts. In
the three shifts the mill will give em
ployment to about seventy-five people,
ten or fifteen of whom will be expert
men weavers. The goods are of such a
high grade that It will require ex
perienced and skillful employes on some
parts of the work. The men weavers
will be on the night shift and the girls
will work during the day. We under
stand that girls who can make a dollar
fe day weaving on the ordinary woolen
foods can make a dollar and a half per
day on this other line of work.
If the mill can manufacture suitings
as fine as the samples, and there is no'
'doubt about that, then the Reynolds
ville Woolen Co. plant should be busy
all the year, as there Is always a de
mand for the grade of goods this com
pany is now equipped to make. The
starting of this mill and the giving of
-employment to at leaBt seventy-five
people, some of whom will get big
wages, will be a good thing for our
town.
Heliographs Used on National Forests.
Experiments will be made during
the summer with the standard helio
graphs which are now used in the War
Department, for signaling on the
National Forests. One of these experi
ments will be on the Kaniksu National
Forest, in Idaho, and the other on the
Stanislaus Forest ia California.
It is intended to discover whether
these instruments will be of use oq
National Forests to report fires or
transmit other messages in areas where
there is no quick method of communi
cation. ,The conditions of climate and lati
tude, as well as the species of inflam
able trees in the two forests, are suf
ficiently different to determine whether
the instrument is suited to some lo
calities and not to others,
r . Easy and quick communication to all
parts of a forest must be bad if fire
is to be kept down. Anyone who knows
of the fearful damage wrought by forest
fires on private and unprotected lands
each year, will easily see that through
fife patrol, use of telephone lines and
other means of communication such as
is maintained on the 195 million acres
contained in the National Forests, the
losses can be reduoed to a minimum.
For the administration and protec
tion of the 143 National Forests in
nineteen states and territories and
Alaska, the Government spent 12,526
098.02, or about one and one-half cents
an acre for the calender year 1908. Of
this amount $592,169.19 was spent for
permanent improvements including the
construction of 3,400 miles of trails,
100 miles of wagon roads, 3,200 miles
of telephone lines and forty miles of
fire lines.
Law Applies to All Placet of Amusement,
At stated in The Stab several weeks
go, an inspector was in Reynoldsville
d notified the proprietors of the
nickelodeons that their rooms did not
comply with the law passed by the last
legislature, requiring three aisles four
feet wide, and that they would have to
close up. The impression got out that
this law only applied to amusement
places two stories high or with galler-
) ies, and that it was not applicable to
the nickelodeon! In Revnoldnvllln. hut
a, decision last week from the depart
ment at Harrlsburg is that the law ap
plies to all places of amusement, with
or without galleries, one or two stories
, high.
The best selection of oxfords in town
reduoed one-third at Nolan's.
LEISURELY JOURNEY
ACROSS CONTINENT
Joseph Clark and Wife, of California,
Revisiting Old Scenes In and Around
Reynoldsville.
Joseph Clark and wife, of Redlands,
California, were the guests of E. Wray
Huntor and wife at their home on Hill
street the past week. Mr. Clark was a
native of the Keystone State thirty
years ago and wua connected with the
Allegheny Valley railroad In the days
of Its construction. Soon after its com
pletion he went to California and bought
an orange grove which has since yelld
ed him handsome financial returns.
Mr. and Mrs. Clark made the trip east
iu a leisurely manner,' going from Red
lands to Seattle, Wash., taking in the
great Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition,
and thence over the Rocky Mountains
to Yellowstone National Park, where
they spent a few days viewing its won
ders. While in Chicago Mr. Clark
purchased a Black automobile and made
the trip to Reynoldsville overland in it,
taking his own time in passing through
the rich manufacturing and farming
regions of Indiana, Ohio and Western
Pennsylvania. Mr. Clark will spend
some time with his nelce, Mrs. E. W.
Hunter, in Reynoldsville, and with
other relatives and friends in DBols
and the Beechwoods.
Bungalow Resort.
We understand that two of our citi
zens have leased several acres of land
on the western side of the Prescottville
mill dam, which is covered , with
enough timber or Bhade trees to make
a nice park, arm that next summer this
woodland will be cleared, the mill dam
cleaned out, and that fifteen or twenty
citizens will build bungalows on the
hillside and live in them during July
and August "of each year. At very
small expense the ground can be
cleaned and bungalows built. There
are twelve or fourteen good sprlngB
on the land. It is near to town and
would be a delightful add convenient
place for Bummer homes. When the
mill dam is cleared out it will make
a nice body of water for. boat riding.
If the project Is carried through the
ground will be laid out in small lots and
the bungalows will be built to certain
lines. It Is the Intention of the pro
jectors to have the bungalow summer
village lighted with eleotriclty and gas
piped In for fuel.
Bad Sidewalks.
In meandering around town I notice
that some of our sidewalks are in a de
plorable condition, and certainly will
cause inconvenience to pedestrians, and
more than likely serious damages to
our borough. I understand some forty
notices are in the hands of our burgess
and he is only awaiting action of the
town council to issue them and see that
the walks are put in proper condition.
In two cases on Main street the proper
ty owners are only awaiting this notice,
and when issued have assured me that
they will immediately replaoe these
broken, unsanitary plank walks with
new ones of cement or brick. Why our
"City Dads" will allow these conditions
to exist is more than I can conceive.

THE REV. CHARLES E. RUDY.
FRANKLIN C& CLEARFIED
MAY BRING SUIT AGAINST
THE PENNSYLVANIA
INTERESTING RUMOR
CONCERNING RAILROAD
Pennsylvania May Build a Short Cut
Between Kittanning and DuBois ,
In Near Future.
While It cannot be officially con
firmed, yet the rumor is again renewed
that the Pennsylvania oompany is con
templating the construction of a short
out from Kittanning to DuBois, where
connection will be made with Its own
Low Grade division for Driftwood. At
preBent, by way of Red Bank, It is
eight-five miles to DuBois.
By building a road up Cowansban
nock creek, a very slight grade will
be encountered, and Punxsutawney can
be reached in thlrty-Blx miles, and
DuBois in fifty-eight miles, a saving
In distance of twenty-seven miles.
This would also give the Penney
a shorter route, it, is claimed, from
Pittsburgh to Buffalo. The proposed
new road, it is asserted, will be double
tracked, and many eastern as well as
north bound passenger trains will be
run over it. Kittanning Daily Leader.
Will Double Track.
On account of the rapidly approach,
ingtime when the B., R. & P. will
be forced to handle the J. F. & C.
trafflo over the Clearfield branch, it
is reliably announced that the work
of double tr acking the branch will be
commenced immediately. DuBois Express.
President Helps Orphans.
Hundreds of orphans have been
helped by the president of The Indus
trial and Orphan's Home at Macon, Ga.
who writes: "We have used Electrio
Bitters in this Institution . for nine
years. It has proved a most excellent
medicine for Btomaoh, liver and kidney
troubles. We regard it as one of the
best family medicines on earth." It
Invigorates the vital organs, purifies
the blood, aids digestion, creates ap
petite. To strengthen and build up
thin, pale, weak children or run-down
people it has no equal. Best for female
complaints. Only 50 cento at H. L.
McEntlre's.
The Latter Has Not Asked
For An Injunction Against
The Fc & C. .
A QUEER RAILROAD TANGLE
Several of our exchanges published
a statement that the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company had taken out an
injunction in the Jefferson county court
to restrain the Jamestown, Franklin
& Clearfield railroad from connecting
onto the former's line juBt below Brook
vllle. This is not correct. It would
not be necessary for the P. R. R. to
take out an injunction, as this com
pany would make the connection on
their own line, which the J., F. & C.
would not do, even if the P. R. R. was
willing that the connection be made.
We understand, however, that the
Pennsylvania Company entered into
an agreement with the Jamestown,
Franklin & Clearfield railroad that the
connection between the two railroads
was to be made at Coder, west 6f
Brookvllle, and that the J., F. & C.
was to use the P. R. R. tracks between
Coder and Falls Creek, but that the
P. R. R. Co. now refuses to fulfill Us
part of the agreement and the James
town, Franklin & Clearfield Company
will bring suit against the P. R. R.
Co. for falling to fulfill the agreement.
Therefore, instead of an injunction it
will likely be a law suit.
Constabulary Sent to Butler.
"There was a riot near the Standard
Steel Car Co. works at Butler Sunday
morning, where the employes are out
on a strike, and six persona were in
jured, one perhaps fatally shot. The
constabulary at Punxsutawney was
sent to Butler Sunday forenoon on a
special train.

account of ill-temper and bad breath.
