 This would enable the department to meet the demand for various details re- ouired by law and yet leave the troops with the necessary number of officers for their proper discipline and instruc- lions, and in war allow the appointment of sufficient generals and general staff officers without destroying the efficien- cv of the army, as threatened by the recent experiences of the department. The number of trained officers as here in provided for at the beginning of the p,c sent war would have saved lives and casures, to say nothing of the in- creased officers of the service At the beginning of the present war some four huadred officers were appointed to the staf. and volunteer regiments With these and for aids to the generals, and ether duty absolutely required for the conduct of the war, absent from their commands the regiments were sent to battle with scarcely more than enc of- ficer to the company. It is difficult now with the sick and wounded off, cers. for the department to get one of ffcer to the company. and too frequent W there have been two comr auies with but one officer The increase proposed would in no way give greater number of officers than required.

Early Closing of Stores.

For few months last summer most
all the stores in this place closed at 500
p. NJ. and now the clerks and some Of
the business men are agitating the ear
ly closing again. Our merchants
seemed to do as much business by clos
ing at 500 p. M. as they do by keeping
open until $50 and 1000 p. NJ. When
the people know that the stores close at
500 p. NJ. they can manage to get
around before that time to buy what
they want. but when there is no regular
hour for closing they are in no hurry to
make their purchases. Too many Of
our business men stick to their stores
more hours than they ought to daily
for the good OF their health, They may
not realize this now, but the day will
come when, broken in health by close
confinement and lack of out door eXer-
else. that they will see their mistake.
BY closing at 500 p. NJ. and then going
out for exercise they will feel better
and will have better chance for long
life

Eleven Cars Piled Up.

Last Friday forenoon a coal train was
wrecked on the r. e. F. G. R'y near the
old scale Office, below Tom Reynolds
residence, in this borough, and eleven
cars jumped the track, some of them
rolled down the embankment into
Soldier Run. There was no one injured
although Harry Coping, brakeman,
was on one OF the cars that was wrecked
and he had to jump into Soldier Run to
save himself. Some of the cars were
badly demolished. 1t is supposed that
a brake chain dropped from car and
caught in the switch frog and caused
the wreck. A wrecking crew was put
to work Immediately and the track was
cleared early Saturday morning, but II
took the wrecking crew most all day
Saturday to gather up the fragments OF
demolished cars. This Is the second
big wreck that has occurred on tho n.
q +. G. R'y. Some five or six years ago
there were number Of cars piled up on
the straight line between Big Soldier
and Fuller Junction.

Log and Camp Train.

p. Mcdonald, lumberman of this
place, will cut between four and six
million feet of timber from the Hopkins
tract of land near Skunk Hollow, east
of Rathmel. A branch road will be
built from the r. & +. C. R'y to the
timber tract, and railroad switch be-
low town, where the logs will be rolled
into the Sandy Lick creek to be hoated
to Hopkins mill, is almost completed.
Mr.. Mcdonald will put train on to
haul the logs from Skunk Hollow over
the r. & f. c. R'y to this place. A
camp train will be put on and the
woodsmen will eat and sleep on the
cars. AS soon as the tracks are all laid
the hauling of logs will begin. At
Skunk Hollow, Sandy Valley and Falls
Creek Mr.. Mcdonald has about one
hundred million feet OF timber to cut
to run to Hopkins mill. 1t will not all
be cut this season.

"The Star" Six Years Old.

On the 1lth of May, 1892, THE STAR
was launched on the journalistic sea
and although it has encountered occa-
sional storms and has been bombarded
frequently by enemies, yet it has made
six successful annual voyages and to-day
starts out on its seventh. 1t has always
been the aim of THE STAR to give its
readers all the news all the time, and
as sequence the paper has good cir
culation to-day. We expect to keep
the paper up to its present standard, at
least, during this year.
In the past eight weeks THE STAR
Office has been moved into more commo-
dious rooms in the Froehlich-Henry
brick building. New type and other
material have been added to the plant
and the Office is now better equipped
than ever to turn out good job work.

Are You Interested /?

With this issue THE STAR enters its
seventh year. Some of our subscribers
have thoughtlessly let their subscrip-
tions run on until they are now in arrears
and it will be our duty to send out some
statements, which we hope will be
promptly responded to by those who
receive them. 1t may be small item
to each subscriber butin the aggregate
it is quite an important matter with
the man who has to keep up the ex-
penses of the printing Office. All our
subscribers can easily tell by looking at
the figures opposite their names on
The STAR, or wrapper, just when their
subscription expires. The first figure
is the month of the year, the second
figures the day OF the month, and the
last figures the year. For example,
5-l1-97, means May IL, 1897. The price
of the paper is sl.50 per year If not paid
In advance, or Sl.0O per year If paid
strictly in advance. With the figures
of expiration printed plainly opposite
each subscribers name weekly, the
subscriber is solely to blame II he
don't take advantage of our special offer
of cash in advance.
