Pedestrians have found the sidewalks
in Reynoldsville to be in good condition
for taking "a tumble" the past two or
three days. 'Tis to bad we have no
ordinance compelling people to clean
their sidewalks, or have we such an
ordinance?
There is an old man in this town who

American Express agent of this place,

mel electric railway has not been
knocked into ''innocuous desuetude,"
but is gradually gaining strength by

''Old Farmer Hopkins" produced by
the Davidson Comedy Co., was greeted
with large audience at the opera
house Thanksgiving evening. Mr..

company proved themselves much above
the average performers. All who
attended were delighted.

linen, and who was Jolly good fellow"
so considered by his associates, who has
been spending considerable time in
Reynoldsville and several other towns
near here, has skipped for new
scenery. An officer with a warrant for

pleased that he bought the spectacles
