Valuable Team Stolen.

Thieves entered the barn OF Curt
North, at Panic, Monday night and
stole team Of horses, a hack, two lap
robes, horse blanket and bag Of corn.
Mr.. North tracked the team to Reyn-
oldsville yesterday morning. North
and his brother-in-law, DR.. j. B. Neale,
followed to Dixon mines and there lost
the trail. Neale carried shot gun with
him. Mr.. North telegraphed to various
places and offered hundred dollars re-
ward for the arrest Of the thieves. Mr..
North left here on the early train this
morning for st. Marys. 1t is the suppo-
sition here that the parties who stole
the team are the same ones who robbed
ed Bells store and that the team was
used to haul their plunder away.

Five Hundred Dollar Burglary.

Thieves entered w. II. Bells clothing
store Saturday night and carried away
about five hundred dollars worth Of
overcoats and suits. They gained an
entrance into the store through back
window. Mr.. Bell carries a very large
and fine line Of ready made clothing,
occupying two rooms for his goods.
One room Is used for suits and overcoats,
exclusively, and the clothing is piled on
two rows Of tables the full length OF
the long room. Mr.. Bell had his best
suits on the tables near the center Of
the room, and those were the tables
robbed. Mr.. Bells private Office and
cashiers department has six or seven
foot high partition enclosing II from
the main store, and into this Office the
thieves carried the clothing and assorted
out what they did not want and then
unlocked the back door and departed.
Sunday evening four suspicious chaps
got on a freight train at Dubois for
Punxsutawney. The conductor tele-
graphed ahead and the constable met
the four men there on their arrival,
but they gave leg-bail and fred two
shots at the constable while on the run.
The balls came very nearly hitting the
constable. The men dropped two bun
dies Of clothing as they ran, which they
had stolen out Of Bells store. Mr.. Bell
and Frank =. Addlesperger drove to
Punxsutawney Monday and Mr.. Bell
got the two bundles of clothing, which
was a small part OF what had been stolen,
but did not catch the thieves.

In the Borough Of West Reynoldsville
or otherwise residing on the said premi-
ses are requested TO repair the side walks
in front OF their property or otherwise

Are You Thankful?

In the past the merchants OF Reyn-
oldsville, generally speaking, have not
been given to showing much respect for
Thanksgiving Day by closing their
places of business. The president Of
the United States and the governor of
our own state have issued proclama-
tions recommending that all secular
business be suspended and that the peo-
pie assemble In their usual places Of
worship and with great reverence and
diligent consideration manifest their
generous gratitude by prayer and songs
of praise for Gods benfits towards us as
people and as individuals. Why not
close all the business places In our town
for at least half day on Thanksgiving.
Perhaps the merchant who closes that
day will not have quite as much cash In
his drawer in the evening as he would
have had had he kept open all day, but
he will soon make up for it. No man
loses anything, even in hard cash, who
shows respect for the God of the Uni
verse. Try at least half holiday this
coming Thanksgiving.

New Schedule.

A new schedule will go into ef-
feet on the b., r. & p. R'y Sunday,
November 10th, which will give the
public better accommodations between
Falls Creek and Punxsutawney than is
now given. The morning and evening
train now running between Punxsutaw-
ney and Bradford will only run between
Punxsutawney and Falls Creek. On
the new schedule a person can leave
Reynoldsville on the morning train,
noon train or evening train and reach
Punxsutawney in about two hours after
leaving Reynoldsvllle. A person can
come from Punxsutawney to this place
on the morning, noon or evening trains.
1t appears the railway company will not
make out their time tables this time as
several newspapers had hoped they
would. In place of making Punxsutaw-
ney ''side issue" and running the mail
train to Clearfield, the train will run to
Punxsy, and that town also gets several
extra passenger trains daily. Whether
the G. & M. passenger train will be
discontinued between Reynoldsville and
Dubois, has not been announced Of
ficially yet.

Who Was She ?

Last Friday afternoon just before the
east-bound passenger train pulled into
the A. V. station at this place, a buggy
was driven up to the platform and a
girl, yet in her teens, jumped out
and strutted up the platform with a
wild west desperate air about her and II
seven shooter grasped in her right hand
and her finger on the trigger. She
looked boldly at the small crowd of men
and boys standing around as If she was
looking for some one to shoot down in
cold blood, but failing TO see her game
she walked into the ladies' waiting
room, which, by the way, was soon
vacated by the half dozen or more ladies
who were waiting on the train. When
the door was closed behind the girl in
the waiting room, 1t was suggested by
several men that it might be possible
that she was "crank" who wanted to
shoot some "big gun" At this suggestion
the editor Of the STAR Immediately took
walk to the extreme end of the plat
form. The girl fingered at the station
until the west-bound train arrived and
then she pocketed the pesky revolver and
got on board the train.

Polygamy at Big Run.

A few weeks ago an article was pub
lished in several papers about a man in
Big Run buying another mans family,
which consisted Of wife and two
children, for one hundred and five
dollars. The statement was correct
and to make the purchase more binding
the man and his one hundred dollar
woman went to New York state last
week and were married, the woman,
however, has not been divorced from
the man who sold her for a little "fllthy
lucre.' The woman is an Italian.
There seems to be no secret about the
affair and yet the people OF Big Run,
so far, are paying very little attention
to the case of polygamy in their midst.

tennial hall last evening to take some
action towards either accepting or pro-
testing against the reduction to take

sutawney to-day to confer with the min
ers OF those places and ascertain what
they propose to do. A mass meeting
will be held in Centennial hall at two

Afraid of a Gun.

A young nimrod of this place was
out hunting several days ago and a
German, who has been in this country
long enough to speak the English
language plainly and who had taken
his dog to the woods TO get some person
TO shoot the canine, met the nimrod and
asked him TO murder his dog. The
young man offered the German the gun
to do the shooting, but he declined and
said. 81 shot gun off in Germany and

any desire to keep 1t to refer to at some
future election. II has been said that
the entire vote was not cast. In 1890
the vote was 1871: this year 1856 voters
were at the polls, making difference

Notice!
Office OF b., L. & Y. C. NJ. Co., !
Reynoldsville, Pa, Nov. 8, '03. (


Reynoldsville, Pa, Nov. 8, '93.
Notice is hereby given that, taking
effect on and after the 10Th inst, the
price of mining in the company's mines
will be 40 cts. per net ton for the run Of
mine coal, and the price of other labor
outside and inside the mines will be in
proportion.
Our chief reasons for the above are
that reductions have been made in min
ing in regions highly competitive with
ours. In the Pittsburgh district the
price of mining has been generally re-
duced from ten to twenty cents per ton.
This region is now securing a large
amount of our business in Buffalo,
Western New York and Canada. In
Eastern New York and the New En-
gland states other competitive districts
are producing at less cost, making
prices we are unable to meet, and tax
ing trade We have supplied for many
years. There are other reasons we
might adduce. Our men very well
know the general stagnation in trade,
and We hope will readily accede TO the
situation. GEO. III. LEWIS, Pres.
s. B. ELLIOTT, Gen1 Manager.

A MONKEYS BURIAL.
An Grafton Delivered Over Its Body
by Butte City Evangelist.

From the Anaconda Standard.
A monkey named Jocko, which was
quite a character in the business center
of Butte City, died the other day and
Rev. Mr.. Rounder, who has a tabernacle
there, thought him worthy of funeral
GRAFTON. So the little body was placed in
a caskct and carried solemnly out TO tic
place of worship. Rev, Mr.. Rounder
mounted the platform and spoke as fol-
lows
God almighty gave mankind ten com.
mandments to show him how to live right.
JOckO was never given any commando
ments, yet Jocl5o in his own way, manage
ed 10 average up pretty well with the
general Of mankind, even without any
commandments. When Moses brought
the Ten Commandments down from the
mountain there was one commandments
which said "Thou shalt not swear's
Yet, Judging from what one hears up and
down the street, swearing with the gen.
eral of mankind has come to be consider
ed a manly accomplishment, and the most
fantastic swearer is the most popular
man.
mankind was commanded Thou shalt
not KILL yet every year murder becomes
more frequent. Then there is another
commandment which mankind has re-
Vised 50 as to require that only women
shall obey it. In these fin de steele days
the offense is pronounced to be no sin as
far as the man is concerned.
"'ThOu shall not cOvet, was another
command given TO man. This does not
apply to any who might desire that pack
of cards should be composed of fifty-two
kings and queens.
God did not help Jocko along by Civ
ing him any commands, so he did not
know how 20 do right, but he seemed to
do better than most people you meet
must admit that JOckO used TO steal when
ever he got a chance, but he was never
told by any one not to steal and with all
his stealing he never took any more than
he wanted for his own use. He never
robbed widows and orphans, and he died
with nothing on earth but the hair on his
back.
''J0cko never bothered his head about
whether Fred Ritchie's monkey was a
hereto or not Not knowing himself
whether he was orthodox or not, he never
wasted any time in trying to make every
body else believe as he did except when
he was after nuts. He made no preten-
siOns to religion, and he was no hypocrite.
JockO was not exactly civilized, but he
never smoked cigarettes, he never chewed
tobacco. Jocko never had bible to guide
him. but he never forgot friend and he
never betrayed a friend.
His worst fault was that he was a nat
ural born thief, but he was born that wav.
He was never told by his creator not to
steal, and if there is q heaven for mon
keys l think Jocko is going to be close up.
TO the throne, with a never-failing sup
ply of nuts and lettuce and enough ink To
swim in"
