Cheap Work.

The chap who was in Reynoldsville
recently and got number of orders for
note heads, on very cheap paper, one
side covered with advertisements, at
the rate of $3.50 per thousand, was in
Dubois and roped in few fellows at
that place. After seeing the work
done for the Dubois men the Courier
says: 1--WE are willing to replace 1t
without cost with something better,
rather than they should use it. The
proposition is not an outburst of gener-
osity or bid for anything, but is made
as protective measure in the interest
of the fair reputation the printing
houses Of Dubois have earned" The
same class of work was done for ten or
eleven men of Reynoldsville. 1t was
certainly amature work, but the solici-
tor was old enough to take S4S.00 out OF
Reynoldsville for that class of work.
Entirely too much job work is sent
away from Reynoldsville, and in many
cases where the price is higher than
asked by home Offices. Every tramp
that comes around with some advertis.
ing scheme is always sure to get some
person to advertise, and il some OF these
people are asked to advertise in q
home paper and thus get full value for
the money invested, they will either
say sit don't pay" or "business is toe
dull at present." An ordinance is on
the statue-book of this borough to pro-
tect the merchants from the installment
plan fakir and peddler of cheap goods,
but the printing Office is left to compete
with whomsover wishes to invade the
town. What is there in towr
that is more benefit to II than q
newspaper? Is the home office not de-
serving Of some consideration when
there is any money in 1t as we'll as when
a free or complimentary notice Is
wanted?

An Agreeable Surprise.

The members Of Century Council No.
7S9, Royal Arcanum, feasted on con-
gealed lacteal and cake last Thursday
evening. 1t was the regular meeting
night OF the lodge and the routine Of
business was gone through up to the
time OF intermission without even sus-
picion on the part OF the members, save
two, OF what was in store for them. AS
soon as intermission was granted Azor
Keagle and Judge Kaufman made their
exit and, to the great surprise Of all,
soon returned with delicious ice cream
and cake which had been prepared by
Mrs. Azor Keagle, of Rathmel, for the
occasion. The old saying, "The way to
peoples hearts, I find, is through their
mouths or l mistake mankind" was
verified and Mrs. Keagle won the high
esteem and thanks OF the Royal Area
NUNS.

How Andrew Brechtel Foraaed on His
NcighborS.
A man named Andrew Brechtel, who
lives III miserable hovel near Oak Park,
is under arrest on a charge of stealing
hay from warehouse at Swiss Station,
the hay being the property of farmer
named A. j. Tiffany, but in charge of P.
II. Smith of Florin.
Bales of hay had been stolen from there
at various times, but Smith was wholly
in the dark as to the identity of the thief
until Tuesday morning last, when wagon
tracks were traced over the frost-covered
ground direct from the warehouse to
BrechtePs place. There the stolen hay
was found
But that was not all that was found by
the Oak Park Constables and others who
visited the place. They found variety
OF articles that people in that neighbor-
hood had missed of late-hay from other
places, chest of tools, harness, wagon
wheels and many other things.
They also found a family, consisting of
the mother and five small children, in
most pitiable state of misery and desttu-
ton, they being without suitable cloth
ing, shoes, etc., and with nothing in the
house to eat except few beans and pota-
toes.
The officers and others with them con-
tributed several dollars with which to re-
lieve the immediate wants of the family.
Judging from the quantity and variety OF
stuff that the thrifty Brechtel had gath
cred in from among his neighbors, with
out any outlay on his part. he should be
abundantly able to provide for his family
quite decently.
He will be examined on Saturday even
ing before Justice McMahon at Oak Park.

AT THEIR OLD GAME.

S1I Carty and Mabel Harris Again Un-
der Arrest for Robbery.
1t was only few months ago that
man named 'Sil' Carly and his female
companion, Mabel Harris. were convicted
here of vagrancy and driven out of the
city. The woman had enticed young
man from the country into her room and
robbed him, but the proof of the theft
was not made absolutely clear to the
court, so the parties escaped conviction
on the robbery charge.
1t now appears from yesterdays San
Francisco papers that the couple have
been following the same line of business
in that city. Their latest victim was a
Chicago physician who came to this coast
recently to superintend one Of the Mid
winter Fair exhibits. lie was inVeigled
into the Harris woman's rooms on Third
street, near Market, where he was drugged
and relieved OF a valuable diamond ring
ana other jewelry and also S4S in money.
Carty was taken along with the woman
because Sergeant Martin, who made the
arrest, believes he had something to do
with the robbery. He lives with the
Harris woman and is considered q dam
gerons criminal. He was once in the
real estate business on California street,
but soon fell from grace. About year
ago he was arrested for rObbing man at
Pine and Dupont streets by representing
himself as police officer. Later he was
taken in for vagrancy. He has served
several terms iii prison for his crimes.
