Two sessions to-day and three to-morrow, Thursday All are cordially Invited to attend each session. "Bits of Wisdom" will be found in this issue of The Star. The Evening Express, a bright, newsy paper of Lock Haven, has published the same article twice within a month, therefore, we consider It worthy space In one issue of this paper. The DuBols Courier gave its readers at this place a column article Saturday morning about the great conflagration at Milwaukee almost six hours before any other daily reached here. There , is no disputing the fact that the Courier is good morning paper. Samuel Whlttaker, who is noted as a horse jockey, and who has been in the . livery buslnoss at this place for a number of years, recently under the , name of Whlttaker & Beck, is now in the business himself at the old place on Jackson street, and requests the publlo to call at his stable when they want to hire a horse and buggy, hack, carriage, 4c., as hi prices art) reasonable. The Rldgway lifrnriiff says that Ave years ago Elk county had about ninety school teachers and now they hove nearly ono hundred and foTty. That Is on an average of about ono teacher for every ono hundred and fifty-six souls In tho county. Elk county Is just half Iho size of Jefferson county in imputation. A 1'enfleld lad named E1. Evans, had his arm so badly wounded by a gun whllo out hunting lust Friday afternoon that amputation was necessary. Tho boy died Sntunloy. There arc many boys in Reynoldsvlllo who go out hunting and we havo been expecting every week to havo to chronlclo somo sad accident happening to somo one of them. A Republican meeting will lie held at l'unxsutnwney to-morrow, Thursday, evening which will bo addressed by John W. Reed, of Clarion, and others. A torch light procession Is also on tho program. A special train will lie run over the R. and F. C. R'y, leaving the Company store, in this place, at 5.. '10 p. M. Fare for round trip, fifty cents. Monday evening, Oct. Hist, was the 47th anniversary of Mrs. E. Crewman's birthday, and a number of her friends assembled at her homo on Jackson street to celebrate tho occasion. The presents were numerous, among which was a complete dinner sett. About ten o'clock nn elegant repast was served, after which a short time was whlled away with vocal and instrumental music. Resolutions from tho Thlstlo Lodge No. HI. A. 1'. A., and tho Shining Light Lodge, No. 27, A. 1'. L.

Monday night was Hollow-e'en and tho youthful urchins amused them selves In tho early purt of tho evening throwing corn and beans against windows, and other littlo innocent pranks. After closing up tlmo tho older boys amused themselves by haul ing wagons, sleds, whoclbarrows, Ac, to somu plain) where the owner had to hunt for thom tho following morning. There was no dumago done to property. The books ore now ooii to receive stock for tho Reynoldsvlllo and Rathmel street railway. If you want stock In tho road make It known to soma of tho directors. A charter has been applied for nnd will probably be hero this week and then aspcciul effort will bo mode to raise tho necessary money to build tho line. Wo have good hopes now of seeing electric curs run in Reynoldsvlllo liecauso tho people are in earnest about the mutter. A number of coul curs runaway at tho Big Soldier mine one day lust week muklng considerable of a wreck and Injuring a driver, Walter Manson, and a truppur, Walter Crosswalt, slightly. It was fortunate that no lives wore lost. The grade Into tho mino is steep and the empty cars wore loft standing without any brakes on and they started into the bunk and ran Into a trip of curs that was going in uhoud of the runaways. Annlo Enowlne, who wus sixteen yours old tho 18th of last June, died at tho home of her father, Peter Enowlno, at 3.00 a. M. Thursday, Oct. 27th, after a few days illness. Miss Annie was ono of tho dining room girls at Hotel MeConnoll until recently. Tho funeral services were hold at the Lutheran church at 2.00 p. m. Sunday, conducted by Rev. E. Crossman, and hor remains wore burled in Boulah cemetery beside her sister, Maggie, who died about two years ago. Two special cars, the "Virginia," A, G. Yates' private car, and the superin tendent's car of the B., R. & P. R'y, were run to this place over the R. & F. C. R'y last Friday with the following officials and friends: A. G. Yates, wife and daughter, of Rochester; Supt. J. II. Barrett, of Bradford; George E. Merchant, general manager; Charles Clifton, of Buffalo, treasurer; A.Dolbeor, supt. motive power; Capt. Abbott, of Bethlehem, Pa., and Austin Blakeslee; of Coal Glen. The ladles of the W. R, C. surprised Mrs. J. L. Ewlng last Thursday evening, that being her birthday, by calling at her home without giving her any notice of their intention. It was a pleasant gathering. As a token of their esteem for the old soldier's wife the Corp presented her with a handsome plush covered rocking chair. Mrs. Ewlng also received several other presents. The ladles of the Corp, who are always ready with something good to eat, did not fall this time, and refreshments were served. The rankest article we have seen in many a day, appeared in the columns of the Falls Creek Herald last week. Such articles are odious. to newspaper dom and common decency. After the editor "cooled off" he wrote an apology for making a fool of himself, Hold your temper, Bro. Bangert, hold your temper. M. L. MoQuown, editor of the llqftman' Journal, whom Bangert thought he was exterminating forever, will continue to publish the Journal and will not loose any subscribers by the rank attacked from Falls Creek. Cow Killed. Jonnthun Whllmore, tho drayman, lost a valuable cow Monday neon which was horribly mangled near tho A. V. R'y station by mall train eastward bound. Mr. Whltmore has boon koop- lng his cow in a pasture Hold near tho otiglno house all summer so that sho would not lo killed by the cars. Tho leaso for pasturo expired Saturduy evening and Mr. Whltmore thought It was not worth whllo to renew the lease and kept his cow In tho barn until Monday noon and then let her out. Tho bovino was walking down the track to tho pasture field when sho met sudden death. Mr. Whltmore has been unfortunate lately. It was only a few months ago that ho was compelled to shoot a good mule. Narrow Escape. Willie Reynolds, youngest son of Dr. S. Reynolds, nnd foster-son of Alliort Reynolds, who Is just recovering from nn almost futal attack of diphtheria, had a narrow escape one day lust week from what doubtless, would have lieon instant death. I In was "over to All's house," tho next door nelghlsir, where he ssnils at least half of his time, sitting nt a littlo desk nenr a bay window drawing pictures when a twenty pound window weight came crashing through the ceiling, passed close to his head and struck tho floor with great foreo. Tho rojHi on tho weight had broken and as a buy window has tiocn added to the house since first built there was nothing but lath and plaster to chock tho weight in Its descent. A Predicament. Sylvester Ilrennan, of Pancoost, has charge of a lumber camp for Degnun & McDonald, nenr tho above named place, In which ten men aro engaged at work. Ono morning last week they found themselves In a predicament- for want of tobacco. They woro all addicted to tho use of tho sullva-produo- lng weed and on tho morning referred to thoro was only ono littlo piece of tobacco In tho crowd and, liko a pack of hungry wolves after ono poor innocent victim, they all wanted it. Mr. Ilrennan came to town that day and bought thirty large plugs and returned to camp that evening to apjstaso the tobacco appetites of that Buffering guug of men. Poor follows! Only ono chow during the day. What a pity! Two Brick School Houses. Tho schc Mil directors of this borough huvo decided to build two six room school houses in Reynoldsvlllo that will cost $15,000 ouch when completed. Tho East End building will bu erected on Main street on tho vacant lot east of Tom Reynolds' lmrn. Tho directors huvo two locations on Hill street, nnd ono on Grunt street for the now build ing in tho West End but huvo not yet decided on a location. As soon as all ncccssnry arrangements can be com pleted tho contracts will Ikj let fur work erecting tho now structures. Tho directors propone to put up school houses thut will not only lie substuntlul but will also bo an ornament to our thriving town. They aro wlso enough to look past tho present and are provid ing for tho future. A Business Change. Ralph E. McKoe and John W. Warnick, two tmterprlslng young men who succeeded A. G. Milllron In the grocery business in tho Boo Hive building about two and a half years ago, sold their store Friday of last week to A. A. Swab, who has boon resident of Roynoldsvllle for almost four years, and D. F. Swab, of DuBols. The now firm will bo run under the namo of Swab Bros. McKee & Warnick done a good business and won friends. The retiring young merchants both have several good offers, but have not yot decided what they will engago In, They are scholarly chaps and met with success as school teachers, both having taught a number of terms before embarking In the grocery buslnoss. We wish them success In the future In whatever business enterprise they may enter. Swab Bros, are taking hold of the store with a determination to conduct their business so as to receive a resonable share of the publlo patron age. The Real Side. Miss Isabelle Arnold, of tbls place, who is attending the Conservatory of Muslo at Boston, Mass., Is an active christian worker and a great "book worm," who has often read about people engaging In christian work in the "slums" of great cities, Is now experiencing some of the realities of such work. A few Sundays ago she, and her room mate, were strolling along one of the streets of Boston when their attention was attracted by singing in a building they were passing and they wandered in and there found a large number of ragged colored children from the "slums" of the city who had been gathered there by an old christian gentleman that hod assumed the responsibility of teaching the little urchins the way to a bettor and nobler life. Miss Isabelle felt it was her duty ito assist in the good work, and offered her service and expects to be at her post of duty every Sunday afternoon among the negro offscourings of that city during her stay there. Enterprise at New Bethlehem. We visited New Bethlehem last week and, notwithstanding tho fact that tho place seems to bo Isolated to a certain extent f nun other towns, It Is undeniable a live littlo town and one that keeps paco with tho times. Tho population is only about fifteen hundred and tho town Is supplied with natural gas, has good water works, and work Is now being dono n a sower lino which will give tho town an excellent sewer system, something that Reynoldsvlllo, with its four thousand of a imputation, has not got, but Is sorely In need of, and must, at no distant day, have a gins! sewer system. A numlr of new and substantial buildings aro being erected there. Tho foundation has been laid for a largo brick school house and tho frame work of tho new Meth odist church Is up. The A. V. R'y Co. Is just finishing a brick stntion Hint is a hcuutifiil scclnicn of nrchitecturo. It is the prettiest station, by far, along the Low Grade Railway. Tho town is also blessed with n live local hht. A 'ompiirison of the business places of New Bethlehem und tho advertising olenitis of the I'iiidinilur, however, indicates that many of the business men of that place do not appreciate tho intrinsic valuo of a homo por us an advertising medium und do not give It tho snp)Mirt they should. No ono can gainsay the fact thut a nowsnMr is tho main-spring of a town, oven if it Is not edited ono-third us well as many of Its wallers could do It. There aro many men to-day who aro doing a largo hu-lness and havo made money simply liccauso they havo embraced tho advantage offered In the columns of a nowspaper. A paer is the criterion of a town. Advertisers will not only got large return in hard cash for the money expended In tho columns of a homo paicr, but add their Influence to make tho town of some consequence outsido its suburbs. If the spirit of enterprise continues Now Bethlehem will havo a street car lino from Oak Ridge and Falrmount before many years. If a town tho size of Now Bethlehem can have a good sewerage, why, In tho namo Bartholomew Copen hagen, or any other man, can't Reynoldsvlllo go and do likewise? Fire Alarm. Shortly Bfter five o'clock Saturday evening the fire alarm was given which soon filled Main street with pooplo and brought the hoso curt and hook und ladder truck out In short order. Tho firo wus In tho rear end of tho old Logan building on tho corner of Sixth and Main streets, which Is occupied by a Ilunguriun family. Tho firo caught from a defective lluo und was extin gulshcd before tho fire company got thoro. Tho hoso curt would huvo been ut the firo much sooner but tho company was stopH'd ut Arnold's corner und Informed that it was only a flue burning out. Tho second alarm was given and they proceeded to tho firo and attached tho hose to tho plug but did not turn tho water on. A loungo,sult of clothes, some bedding and a few other things were destroyed. There was a stiff breeze blowing at tho time. Fortunately tho fire was discovered in time to save quite a conflagration. Good Advice. Every young married mun should subscrllie for a homo newspaper. His wlfo has probably always had the pleasure of reading ono at home and it would be heartless to deprive hor of the paper after she is marriod. Then, again, it will help make the homo bright and happy and the wife need not waste hor time visiting hor neighbors, who take a home pajier, to find out what is going on. It will save cold dinners and give the wifo more tlmo to darn hor husband's socks. Punxsutawney Xeir. The above is good advice and Thr Star is just the paper to subscribe for. It contains all the local news. Try It! A Family Relic. Hood Knox, the benedict, while on his wedding tour received a bible of antiquity from an aunt. The bible is over five hundred years old, and was brought from Dublin, Ireland, one hundred years ago. It was at one time the property of Mr. Knox's great great grandmother. The book has been re-covered with buckskin which Is worn through at the lower corners where handled the most. The book has the semblance of antiquity. Several family records have been obliterated from its pages by time and others recorded on the few yellow leaves for that purpose. Beech Creek Railroad Extension. I Look Haven Expresn.! The roadbed of the Beech Creek railroad extension, from Kermoor to Lajose, in Clearfield county, has been completed. It is thirty-six miles long and cost 11,000,000. The rails will be laid and the road will be open for business on Deo. 1. Notice. As we have sold our grocery store to Swab Bros, we respectfully ask all parties owing us to call and settle their account at their earliest convenience. McKeb & Warnick. Oct. 28th, 1892. Buy your school shoes at Robinson's and save money. THE TRUE VERSION. A Few Misstatements and a Fancy Sketch from the Courier. President Holierts and directors of tho P. R. R.j W. II. Barnes, president, nnd David McCnrgo, general snjierlii- tendent, of tho Allegheny Valley R'y, passed through this place last Thursday afternoon In a smm-Iu1 train of five coaches. Tho train made no stops ovor tho rond only for water and orders. Our bright morning friend, tho DuBols ('imrirr, published an acnount Friday of tho trip and some changes to be made about the 15th Inst., that must havo been the offspring of a fertile Imaginary brain, or else the editor was misinformed. Tho Cmirirr, by tho way, h given to boosting and enlarging on things con nected with DuBols' welfare. Tho ('imrirr said tho oftltiinls tarried at Fulls ('reek over an hour Inspecting tho company's property thre, und thut they scanned the works at tihe Ilerwlnd Whlto shaft ut DuBols, "looked down the big black holes und then proceeded on their Journey." The HHr also said that the road would soon becomo a portion of the Pennsylvania system, and thut nil trains would run through to Renovo, und tbnt freight would bu billed through to nnd from the east. Just so! Quito a news Item. Tho truth Is, tho train stepped at Falls Crook long enough for tho conductor to register und the special passed tho Berwlnd-Whlto shaft at tho rate of forty miles an hour-. Tho A. V. R'y Is controlled by tho P. R. R. and Is already In that system, but Is operated as a separate organisation. Driftwood will continue to bo tho terminus of all Allegheny Valley trains, and as for freight being billed through to and from tho cast after tho Cimrirr'n pro posod change, that is done now and has been for several years. The article referred to would give the Impression that Duliofa la the focus for tho rail road companies, and all changes are mado for tho goisl of that town only. Superintendent Rumsey, who was In charge of the social train carrying tho Pennsylvania and Allegheny officials, informs us that whenever any changes aro to bo mado In the present running of trains tho benefits to Reynoldsvlllo and Brookvllle will not be lost sight of. There is somo talk, however, ofin the near future muklng tho DuBols accom modation a mall train and running It through to Driftwood to connect with tho 9.40 p. M. train on the P. A.E. for tho east. If this is dono tho Reynolds vlllo iNMiple can leavo hero at H.50 p. M. and arrive at Philadelphia at 0.50 the next morning. There is nothing definite about this change yet, but the officials aro considering the matter. The business on tho Low Grade Division, oust of Dultois, is growing. Coul and coke plants already having boon put In operation at Tyler and Glon Fisher, and a large lumber mill now being erected at Medlx Run where 100,000,000 foot of hemlock will be manufactured, it Is hoMvl thut tho business will justify tho running of tho evening train through to Driftwood Instead of stopping at DuBols. Arrangements havo boon mado to run a through coach from Plttslsirg to WilliumsHii't and vice versa, so that IHioplo along tho lino of tho Low Grade will not have to change cars at Drift wood. A through coach from hero to Pittsburg has been run for five years. The Institute. Prof. J. II. Hughes, County Supt., says: "Tho Jefferson County Institute convenes Nov. 14th. Tho instructors in the day sessions will be Dr. E. E. White, Columbus, Ohio; Dr. Theo. B. Noss, California, Pa.; Dr. Chas. W. Doune, Indiana, Pa.; Dr. A. J. Davis, Clarion, Pa.; A. D. Maloy, A.

This company comprises ten of the most skilled singers and players to be found in the city of Glasgow, Scotland. On Thursday night there will be an elocutionary and musical entertainment by Miss Sarah JefTeris. We are working in hopeful anticipation of a pleasant and profitable week. We cannot be satisfied with the results of former lnstitues, good as they may have been. The coming conven tlon, In Its work for the teachers and schools of this county must surpass anything ever attempted in other years. We shall endeavor as much as In us lies to so arrange and conduct the deliberations of the institute that its aim and purpose may be realized through the teachers in the bettor work of the schools and the more efficient education of the children and youth committed to our care for Instruction."
