On Friday picked up nine from here
crossed bats with the first nine of Brook
vile, and for the first three innings
put up miserable game, allowing their
opponents to make eleven runs while

Brookville had secured. Score IA to 5.
We propounded the question several
weeks ago Of having a steam laundry in
Reynoldsville and the matter is now
being Investigated and in all probability
the people of this place will not be
compelled to send their washing to

other place. There is no reason why
Reynoldsville should not have laundry
1t would, doubtless, be paying estab
, lishment.
