Cunty Unien.

Probably at no time in its history has
there been SO enthusiastic an assembly
OF the County Union as the one held in
in this city last SATURDAY.. This con-
dition was due mainly because it is
easily apparent to everybody OF II
thinking mind that the alliance position
of the political questions were right,
that the dangers which it foreseen and
and other evidence of faith, had settled
down on this fair country. and that if a
more liberal progressive cause had been
persued by the Democratic and Re-
publican lawmakers, prosperity would
have reigned instead of misery: that
the conditions would not have been
provable to the production of criminals,
high and low. All these facts are
being realized now and the stauEch
friends of the alliance see new life for
their organization, and hope and ex-
pect the people generally will aid them
in building up this humitarian body
and cause it to become a very useful
institution. To this end, the session,
Saturday, paved the way for the COM
plete reorganization of all sub-uniOns,
/ in the following resolutions: THAT all
sub-uniOns who has now or ever has
had a charter to meet during the month
of January and pay their regular semi.
annual dues of 20 cents, will be reinstated
in the County Union with all its rights
and privileges. We would suggest that
they hold their regular meetings al
least once month, or oftener, in open
session to discuss national issues in q
brOtherly and patriotic spirit, so tina,
: ! the organization may be the instrumen,
in devising ways and means out of the
financial depression. To this end, the
cooperation OF everybody is invited.

This city was visited by quite fire

This city was visited by quite fire
Friday afternoon. The B:umback Han
die Factory was destroyed by fire in
about 40 hour after the machinery was
set TO work, but had gained such head
way, and the buildings being SO far
from the center OF the city, that no
means could be obtained t. stay the
flames. The buildings were formerly
used by the Novelty Furnitur: company.
had been purchased by Geo. F. Myers
a few weeks after the collapse Of the
Novelty business, who had rented them
to the Brumback Bros. for a handle
factory. The buildings were worth,
probably, about s., 500 and were totally
consumed except a small structure some
feet in the rear of the main part, whic'.
was insured fire proof. There was no
insurance on the main luildings. 1t is
generally estimated that Brumback
Bros. loss was about 81, 800, with $500
insurance. This loss is q serious one
to the boys, who were just getting
started in businyes and were succeeding
beyond expectations. The public SYM

that there are higher and more endur-

The star. (Reynoldsville, Pa.) 1892-1946, 1894-01-17

Joy it is life at its very highest, its
very brightest, its very best. Alas!
with the common life of men it has
little to do. Look back on your life,
and see how many of its days or weeks
you can describe as full of joy Walk
on the streets, and on how many faces
do you see the light of joy? There are
two conditions requisite to ioy-inno-
cence and fellowship: and both condi-
tions are all too rare. The world, not
possessing either-fOr its seductions are
evil and its fellowships are false-aims
at guilty substitute for joy. But
there is no such thing. Guilty excite
ment, guilty passion, there is; but one
drop of guilt in the sparkling cup Of
pure joy makes it bitter, envenomed,
turbid, even in the moment OF fruition.
1t is at the best the sweetness of the
fruit whose taste is poison, the glitter
OF the serpent whose bite is death.
Its pleasure is unsatisfying at the
moment, and its effects deprave forever,
but true joy is a rose in Paradise which
only the hand of innocence can pluck.
