Thanksgiving Services.

In accordance with custom and in re-
sponse to the proclamation OF the presi-
dent OF the United States, many of the
people of Reynoldsville attended divine
service on Thanksgiving day. This
year the services were held In the Bap-
tist church, the pastor Of the Presby-
terian church, Rev. w. F.. Reber, con-
Quoting the opening service and the
pastor OF the Methodist Episcopal
church, Rev. p. A. Reno, preaching
the sermon. The speaker took for his
text Col. 4: 2, Continue in prayer and
watch in the same with thanksgiving.
The speaker showed how in real christ
tian worship prayer and thanksgiving
are united. The heather knew little
II anything OF the song OF praise. The
Jews had much OF blood and weeping
although at times bursting into the
magnificent anthems recorded In the
book Of Psalms. Thanksgiving Is en-
phatically christian. No other system
of religion has in 1t SO much OF praise,
so many and so great anthems and chor-
ouses expressing thanksgiving to God.
The annual Thanksgiving day is peculiar
to America. The speaker called atten-
tion to many things for which we ought
to be thankful: Our financial prosperity
our public schools and colleges, our
churches and the open Bible, the pros.
poets OF an early peace in the Philip
pines, our homes and home comforts
and that no plague has visited our land
The whole service was very pleasan,
and profitable.

Can of Bogus Money.

Several days ago hollow stump was
blasted out along the line OF the new
branch railroad from this place to
Hopkins, near the latter place, which
had tin can in it. 1t was an ordinary
tin can and little attention was paid to
it until Friday last when it was picked
up and opened by a workman and was
found to contain over twenty dollars Of
counterfeit money. 1t was all in five
and fifty cent denominations OF the issues
of 1850 and '5S. BY comparison with
the genuine coins of the same dates, the
engraving seemed nearly perfect, but
the quality of the metal was bad. 1t
was so soft that it could be easily bent
with the fingers. The spurious coins
were wrapped in paper and were in a
we'll preserved condition. It's believed
that the can was hidden in the stump
ten or twelve years ago by one OF the
gangs of counterfeiters infesting this
region about that time, which were
broken up and some, OF the offenders
sent to the penitentiary.

Sevengala, the Hypnotist.

Sevengala closed his weeks engage
ment at the opera house Saturday even
ing, his last entertainment being given
to packed house with even the stand
ing room taken. His hypnotic exhibit
tions were highly entertaining, and the
feats performed in telepathy, that of
transmitting his thoughts to subject
in hypnotic state at distance the
length of the room, without the use OF
any words, mystified all. Any test
which the audience desired was given
to Sevengala and the subject performed
it without being spoken to. Friday
night at 1890 o'clock, in the opera
house Fred. Barto, young man Of this
place, was placed in hypnotic sleep for
twenty-four hours. He was put on
exhibition in Walter c. Henry's show
window, where he was seen by hundreds
on Saturday. He was awakened from
his long sleep by Sevengala promptly
at 1890 Saturday night.

No Friends, but Lots Of Money.

A little excitement was raised at the
grocery store Of ]. M. Dunn Wednesday
afternoon by couple OF men, who had
been drinking, going in and trying to
run the store. After ordering them
out and they refusing to go, the pro-
prietor forcibly elected them, and one

fellow was stranger in this place. He
said he had no friends, but lots Of money.
