weather several days previous and on
the day set for the reunion, was a
damper on the ardor of many who ex-
pected to attend the elbow out" Our

Band Concert.

The gentlemen of the Keystone band
Of this place, who have been gaining
quite reputation the past year for
good music and a fine appearance, gave
an open air concert on the balcony Of
Hotel Dillman last Friday evening. The
music was excellent and was listened to
by large crowd of people who congre-
gated along the sidewalks. The music
had tendency to liven people up. One
young lady, a member of non-dancing
church, was so enraptured with the
music that she forgot all else and took
little waltz on the sidewalk without Il
partner. Make the wellSin ring soon
again, gentlemen, with your delightful
music. What has become Of the Pres
cottville band? Let them give an open
air concert. The boys Of that band also
know how to "toot out" good music.

Both Hustlers.

Amos Burson, general manager Of
the Kellogg Moving Machine Knife
Grinder for United States and Dominion
of Canada, who has his headquarters at
Punxsutawney, and John w. Phillippi
general agent for the same establish
ment, formerly resident of Winslow
township, now OF PunXsutawney. were
in Reynoldsville Monday. Mr.. Burson
is a gentlemanly fellow and lacks not the
business vim necessary for the position
he holds. II is well known in this neck
o woods that Mr.. Phillippi makes an
excellent agent. The Moving Machine
Knife Grinder, which is manufactured
for this state at Lindsey, Pa, is almost
an Indispensable article for the far
mer and is rapid seller. This Compa-
ny has good thing and they know it.
The "Grindcr' is sold at a reasonable
price, thus putting it within the reach
of all farmers and thereby disposing of
the tedious grindstone way which is
almost enough to drive a farmers boy
away from home.

Only One Cow.

A story went the rounds last week
that a number of town COWS had gone
down along the railroad and eaten hay
that had been thrown out which had
broken glass in it and that three Of the
bovines died soon after eating the hay.
An investigation proved the fact that
C. G. Matson's COW had died near where
the hay was. Harry O'Bryan, Matson's
bartender, says he opened the COW and
could not tell what killed her, but from
reports he had heard, rendered ver-
diet that the COW died from eating hay
with broken glass in it. a half dozen
or more people, according to statements
made, had seen the three dead COWS,
but when asked about it, they were told
by some one else who had seen them.
When all the 81 was told so," was
shaken out Of the story the facts were
as above stated.

Struck by Lightning.

During the storm last Saturday, while
the lightnings flashed athwart the
heavens, portion of the atmospherical
electricity toyed with board pile at
Hopkins mill near a shed where some
men and a mule were working. The
men and mule were all on their knees
in a jiffy knocked down from the
effects OF the lightning. There was no
one injured, but all badly frightened.
The lightning ran along the track in
the lumber yard and the men working
some distance from where it struck, felt
the effects of it. One man who
was standing on the track had
the heel of one shoe torn off.
A black streak where the lightning
struck the board pile and some nervous
men were the only traces left of the
destructive visitor. 1t was a narrow
escape.

CRISIS is PAST

Gradually COnCen-
trated.
Nearly Two Millions Of Minnesota
Money in the
Banks.

State Treasurer Bobleter's monthly
accounting shows that there is S1,S34,
751.24 in the treasury, and all this, save
less than $1,000, is placed in the state
repositories. There is something of in
terest in connection with this latter.
Col. BobIeter of late has been induced
to extend the list Of state de-
positories, as glance at the
report below will prove. The al
most uneXampled stringency III the
money market has been, the cause.
Nothing else would have led the banks
of the state to importune the state treas
urer to deposit as much of the state
funds with them, respectively, as posi-
bic. The bankers have done this more
extensively of late than ever before, and
they are willing to pay the interest re-
quired by the state law in order to get
the money to tide them over the present
difficulties. And, it should be observed,
the banks, especially in the country. or
outside large cities, have actually
reached stage of ease, and it is antci-
pated that shortly Col. Bobleter will
again be permitted to place the greater
portion of the state funds in the city
banks without protest, and possibly at
the request Of the country banks.

The advocates of dress reform were

The advocates of dress reform were
out in full force at Chicago during the
congress of women. There is no doubt
but that there are some things about
the present style of dress for women
that would be the better for a change.
but there is no hope of inducing women
to make such radical changes as some
suggested. AS a general thing there
was a disposition to ''chatf' the models
presented for approval on the platform
of that department of the congress.
Even those who believe that women
need some radical reform in dress were
not willing to accept these ugly cos
tunes. No woman will be willing to
make guy OF herself, even in the
cause of health. So if our sisters call
not find some dress that will be pretty
as well as hygienic, there is little hope
of their success. Speaking of the eXhi-
bition, writer in the Herald says:
