Mr.. Carl has sister living at Muldrow.

The Breeze, Of Johnsonburg, entered
its fifth year last week. II has hereto
fore been called the Clarion Breeze, but
last week the name was changed to
Johnsonburg Weekly Breeze, and the
paper was enlarged from seven to eight
columns. The Weekly Breeze is a de-
cided improvement over the Clarion
Breeze.
Street Commissioner Henninger had
TO get the hose out Monday and turn
the water into the sewer down the alley
where S. L. Reynolds brick Is being
erected. The pipe was filed with rub
bish off tire street, washed there by the
heavy rains, which turned the water
into Mr.. Reynolds cellar. A serene on
the upper end Of the sewer would have
saved all the trouble, and will have to
be put on to save trouble and expense in
the future.
w. f.. McKeen, an employee at Hop
kins, was working on scaffOld at the
mill Friday and the board he was stand
ing on broke and he dropped and came
very nearly breaking his neck In fall
ing his chin came in contact with
board nailed onto the scaifold which
threw his head backwards with great
force, and the back Of his head struck
another board and he was thrown for
ward again and he caught onto board
and saved himself from falling to the
ground.
A few men and number of small
boys had considerable sport yesterday
with "Billy," the soldier, who lost his G.
A. II. pin. A rag gatherer, who Is
now in town, was accused by "Billy"
Of stealing his pin. A mock arrest and
trial was held at Ed. Burns barn. Mrs.
Burns turned the hose on the gang,
some OF whom got good soaking, just
after the prisoner gave the officers the
slip. 1t would have been but just II the
lady had come little sooner and given
all the participants cool bath.
The people who live near the corner
Of Jackson and Fourth streets have be-
come tired Of the noise of the beer
drinking gang that has been making
"Rome howl" with their drunken
carousal every Saturday night for five
or six weeks. Several OF the citizens
have notified the officers of the nuisance
and want it stopped. The obscene
language used and songs they sing are
shameful, and yet some of these very
fellows walk the streets in daylight and
try to be somebody. The officers will
look after the matter and some person
will pay the borough rent for use Of the
ground they have taken possession OF
for Saturday night spree, or else the
nuisance will be abated.
Three Swedes left Reynoldsville on
the eastbound train Monday noon re-
turning to the land of their nativity.
The shower of tears would not have made
perceptible difference in the Atlantic
ocean, yet the big drops soon dampened
the big bandanas used when the good
bye was said. With the Americans the
women kiss and cry and the men shake
hands and say good bye, but with the
Swedes 1t is vice versa. We witnessed
the farewell scene Monday in which the
men who were returning to the old
country and those who were to remain
in America kissed each other good bye,
while the big tears chased one another
down the tan-colored cheeks, and two
women, who were with the party,
looked on and smiled.
Earl, two-year-old son of VIM. Bark
ley, narrowly escaped from being burn
ed to death Saturday evening. Ever
since the 4th OF July the little lad has
watched every opportunity to get
matches and light them. On the even
ing mentioned the child, unbeknown to
any other member of the family, got
some matches and began celebrating.
His clothing caught fire and before dis
covered his body was burned in two or
three places. One burn was as large as
a mans hand. The parents were badly
frightened. About eighteen years ago
their home was darkened by having
their oldest child, toddling boy, burn
ed to death by falling into an open fire
