MASONIC Banquet.

The Masonic annual banquet was held
in Franks Pavilion last Wednesday
evening. There were about IS persons
present. The Daughters of Rebekah
furnished and served the viands for ban
quet, and from remarks made by some
of the feasters we understand that the
spread" was very fine, the most fas-
tidious could not complain. After the
''inner man" had been more than salts
fed several hours were pleasantly
whiled away in playing various games,
and few "tripped the light fantastic"
10 the tunes Of ''auld lang syne." Da-
vid Reynolds, Albert Reynolds, and o. F..
Smith, who played for "hoe downs" al
most quarter of century ago, man
ipulated the violins and Mrs. Il. c..
Shields and Mrs. 7. G. Reynolds took
turns in presiding at the piano. When
the town clock warned the jolly crowd
that it was time to disperse, they hied
themselves to their various domiciles
feeling that the Masonic annual ban
quet had been delightful social event.

could not be shown around the town
and there was no attempt on the part of
our citizens to do more than shake
hands with the visitors.

Brookville Glass Plant.

At a meeting of the Board OF Direc,
tors of the Brookville Glass Company,
held on Saturday evening, 1t was de-
cided to commence the manufacture Of
glass at its plant in this place on Tues
day, April l4th. While the buildings
are as yet not nearly completed work
on them has reached that point that
the plant can be started up without in
terfering materially with that part Of
the work. The company has met many
obstacles during the progress of the
work of building the glass plant here,
the most serious OF which was its ina
bility to get the steel for the buildings,
although binding contract was had
with reliable firm for the prompt de-
livery Of the steel, but the railroad was
so overrun with freight that IL was i'm
possible to get the material delivered.
The management has this satisfaction,
however, that no matter how much the
delay and vexation, they have finally
succeeded In building one of the best
glass factories In the world, as 1t Is so
pronounced by those who are in posi-
tion to know. The plant will be started
up next Tuesday, and II nothing hap
pens 1t will be run continuously until
the first Of July.-Brookville Republi-

county superintendent for three year
term. The present county superinten-

election without opposition, at least we
have not heard of any person foolish
enough to enter into contest with
such strong candidate as Prof Teit-
rick. We doubt II there is another
county in Pennsylvania that has as
bright, aggressive and hustling county
superintendent as we have in jefferson
county. Prof. Teitrick has proven him
self to be such competent man for the
Office of county superintendent that the
directors do not desire to make a
change. Why should they? The
schools of the county were never in
