erning the financial part of its business.
And that is to make the subscription

pay in advance. Those who want THE
STAR for that price can get it by settling
all arrearages and paying an extra

will also receive the advance yearly dol
lar rate. The price will remain the
same as heretofore, $3.50 year. but n
discount of 50 cents will be given those

like all its old subscribers TO avail them
selves of this offer and as many new

vance. This special offer holds good
until the lst of January, 1896.

Saturday next, September 7th, accord

Labor Day but it was decided by few
men at this place TO observe Monday as
Labor Day, and on Friday evening a
message was sent TO Pittsburg to secure
speaker for the occasion and on Satur-
day James l.. Michels, of Pittsburg,
General Worthy Foreman of the Inde-
pendent Order knights OF Labor, came
to Reynoldsvllle in response to the
message. A meeting was to have been
held on the commons below Jackson
street at ten o'clock Monday forenoon,
but it was not generally known and the
crowd was so small that the meeting
was postponed until two o'clock in the
afternoon 1t was noised about that
Mr.. Michels would speak in the after
noon and a good sized crowd turned out
to hear him. Had the matter been
taken in hand In time and properly ad-
yertised large crowd would have been
at the meeting. However, those who
were present listened attentively to the
old mans remarks and afterwards dis
cussed the present situation in calm
and sensible manner.

The following dispatch from Harris

in several of the daily papers that came
to Reynoldsville, has given our people
something to talk about
a charter was granted to the Reyn-

a representative of THE STAR called
at the b., L. & Y. C. NJ. Co. Office Mon
Gay to interview S. b. Elliott, president
of the proposed new railroad. Mr..
Elliott received the reporter very cor
daily, but was reticent about the new
road. He said the road would certain
ly be built and that two or three corps
of engineers are at work surveying the
proposed line, and further than that at
present he sayeth not.
The b., r. e. =. owns, on has large
interest, in coal mines in the neighbor-
hood of Punxsutawney and as natural
result those mines get the preference
for cars. &c. Five years ago the b., L.
& Y. C. NJ. Co. secured controlling
interest in the road in order to get a
good car supply and better shipping
facilities. After the failure of A. G.
Yates the coal company of this place
lost control Of the read and has since
been having difficulty in getting cars to
I'll their orders. The new road will

tracks will be used from this place to
Falls Creek and the new road will be
constructed from that place to Warren.

tion of this road will be great benefit
to Reynoldsville, as this will be the
terminus of the road. 1t cannot be
constructed too soon, and THE STAR
hopes that it will not prove to be only
railroad talk, but that by this time next
year the iron horse will be heard snort
ing along in the valleys between Reyn-
oldsville and Warren. The route has
been surveyed several times and two
years ago the probabilities of building
the road were discussed.
1t has been rumored that the Wander
bilts, the Central Railroad of Pennsyl-

negotiating for the purchase of the b.,
