An Exciting Runaway.

a large iron gray horse, owned by
a Dubois Company created quite
an excitement on Main street last
Thursday afternoon. David Grant was
driving the steed and was on his way
home when the runaway occurred.
The horse was little excited and
the driver turned down Sixth street to
let conveyance pass and then turned
to drive up Main street just as little
girl came along with an umbrella, at
which the horse became frightened and
made aquick turn, throwing the driver
out of the cart. David hung on to the
lines and was dragged some distance on
his back before relinquishing his hold
The horse came down Main street at Il
reckless speed and all attempts to stop
him were unsuccessful until Hotel
Belnap was reached, there he was SHE'D
off and ran onto the sidewalk in front
of Centennial Hall and the cart struck
one of the iron posts and unhitched the
beast in jiffy. The only damage done
was to demolish the cart and disarrange
some of the horses gearing.

$500 for Sheep.

The school board and auditors of Win
slow township met at the school house
in West Reynoldsville on Monday and
settled all their accounts for the year.
The board expended $1,000 for sheep that
had been killed in the township by dogs
during the past year. The dog tax of
townships or boroughs all goes into the
hands Of the school directors, and no
portion of it to the State, as we men,
toned in THE STAR last week. If any
sheep have been ''necked" by CANNES,
the dog tax fund goes to pay for the
sheep. When this fund, after the sheep
are paid for, amounts to $4,000 it is
then used for school purposes. After
paying their $500 sheep bill the direc-
tors had something over $4,000 to
apply for school purposes. II few dogs
of Winslow township were sent to ''dog-
land" the township would have larger
school fund.

the usual spiked shoes, overalls, red

top shirt open down the front in close
imitation of ball dress. He said he
had the 'hoppin' toothache' and he
wanted it pulled, (the tooth not the
ache). He sank down into that ''gol
darn'd'st looking chair" as though he
expected to be electrocuted the next
minute. and told the DR.. to "hitch on
and snake it out almighty quick" The
DR.. picked up two pair of forceps and
laying one of them in the woodsman's
open shirt front. he yanked out the
aching molar with the other pair, pair

unnoticed down inside the shirt front.
The woodsman said he felt 'mighty

work started out through the front room
in which several ladies and gentlemen
were sitting, suddenly as he reached
the middle of the room, he let out u yell
and frantically grabbed his pants leg at

cred from the first spasm of laughter,
told the fellow to let go and the missing
pair of forceps dropped to the floor.
The woodsman wanted to lick the crowd
but finally calmed down and started
home after buttoning his shirt collar
tight around the neck.

"Muz" Surprised.

A pleasant surprise, indeed was the
home-gathering Of Mrs. Amelia Reyn-
olds' family for dinner last Monday.
"Muz," as she Is familiary known,
passed her seventy-ffth birthday on
Sunday, June 5th. She is well known
in this section. Before her daughters
were wooed and won, her house was
somewhat of resort for the young
people. Miss Ida Reynolds, at the
suggestion OF her brother-in-law, ]. s.
Morrow, invited the boys and girls
older grown-to again meet In the home
circle and enjoy, with the mother, a
meal as of other days, minus the family
disagreements, hair-pulling and other
youthful pranks, that the stubborn
realities of life have robbed them of.
'Muz" was ignorant Of the plans being
laid to spring surprise upon her. and
was not apprised of the reunion until
Mrs. Chas. Montgomery arrived on the
one o'clock train. This family, like
many others, have stood beside new
made graves, father two boys and two
girls have long since mouldered in the
dust, but two boys and six girls seated
themselves around the table. with the
mother at the head, and partook of the
good things provided, while the MEM
ories of by gone days flashed through
their minds In panoramic views.
The children are: David Reynolds,
Albert Reynolds, Mrs. c. G.. Gibson.

Punxsutawney Spirit, and candidate for
the second term for Assembly, devoted
column and half in his paper last
week as arefutation of base political
scheme concocted for the purpose of
defeating him for the nomination for
Assembly. The report that is being
quietly circulated by these tricksters
is that because Mr.. Smith acted as edi-
tor for the Bradford Era few months
last year, that he is disqualified, under
the Constitution of the State, to repre-
sent the people of Jefferson county in
the Legislature. Their political rigma-

understood by Mr.. Smiths friends that
his connection with the Era was only
temporary. as he fully expected to re-
turn to the county of his nativity. The
political gun of treason has been fired
almost at the last moment, yet it will,
doubtless, miss its mark. No man, be he

ney. Mr.. and Mrs. +. l.. Evans. of

sorrow even TO its btterest dregs during
the past week.
Gerald G.. Evans. conductor Of the
night crew on the II. & f. G.. II. II. was
killed in the Reynoldsville yard at 1915
Thursday, morning, June End. In
attempting to make a coupling between
the engine and car in some way--it is
thought he fell-he was caught between
the drawheads and never uttered Il
word afterwards. One Of the brakemen
heard his lamp drop and-as is the GUS
tom with railroad men when a lamp
drops or goes out to run quickly to see
what the difficulty is-he ran to the
place and saw a notwithstanding sight.
A signal was given and the engine NOV
ed ahead, but Gerald only moaned two
or three times and then yielded to the
monster death. The young man was
caught across the left breast and his
heart was crushed.
His remains were taken to the under
taking rooms Of Priester Bros. where
they were keptuntil Thursday evening.
The funeral service were held in the
NJ. h. chuch at 300 o'clock Sunday
afternoon, conducted by Rev. w. =.
Murray. This funeral was the most
largely attended of any ever held in
Reynoldsville. About 1000 people
viewed the remains in the church. The
mortal remains of Gerald were deposited
beneath the sod of Pleasant Avenue
cemetery. The crew Of which he was
conductor acted as pall-bearers.
Beautiful flowers that had been pluck
ed from the parent stem were placed
upon the casket, giving their life as a
token of the esteem in which the young
man was held by his associates. The
cross was presented by the employees of
the Company store, the anchor by his
crew, and the wreath by his aunt, Mrs.
Anna Hendricks.
Gerald was % years old, the eldest
son of T.. l.. Evans. He had been rail-
roading about four years. He was a
quiet inoffensive young man, having a
pleasant word for everyone and paid
strict attention to his own business.
