Holland is rejoicing over the gradual
but apparently certain recovery of
Queen Wilhelmina. The avidity with
which the German newspapers began
to discuss the succession to the throne
when the queens life was almost de-
SPARED of, a few days ago, thoroughly
alarmed the Netherlands and started an
earnest opposition to any German sue
cession. Under the constitution the
states general would have the selection
of successor in default of q legal heir,
and owing to the jealousy felt toward
Germany it is not likely that German
would be chosen, and it is even possible
that republic might be proclaimed, in
which event the Netherlands would
have the hearty support of France and
if need be of Russia as an ally of France.
However, the decided Improvement in
Wilhelmina's condition appears to
avert for the present the dangers that
would attend her death,

Body Exhumed Sunday.

Another chapter has been added TO
the record OF the unknown suicide that
was buried In the Reynodsville Gene
terry last Wednesday forenoon after
having been kept at j. II. Hughes
undertaking rooms twelve days with
out being identified. IL was stated in
THE STAR last week that the editor Of
this paper had sent a picture Of the
dead man to chief-of-police at Braddock,
with an account of the suicide, as II was
claimed that the man said he had a
wife and three children living In Brad
dock and that he had been working at
Bradford. Saturday evening John
Quinton, of Braddock, came TO Reyn-
oldsville to claim the body of the dead
man as his father, as the picture that
had been sent to Braddock looked
exactly like his father, who had been
working at Bradford and who had not
been heard from for over i've weeks
And another thing that led him TO
think that 1t was his father, Martin
Quinton, was the fact that the name
MOtter was on the shirt, for that was
the way Mrs. Quinton marked her hus-
bands shirts. The body OF the un-
known man was exhumed Sunday
morning to see II the young man could
identify 1t as the body OF his father,
but one glance at the dead man was
sufficient to convince the young man
that 1t was not his father. The body
was buried again until some one else
comes to Identify IL. There is q woman
near New Kensington that thinks 1t is
possible that it is her husband. II is
good thing that Undertaken Hughes
embalmed the body, as it may be ex-
humed several times yet, as the dead
man seems to have resembled so many
different people-Joseph Bailey, Oliver
Motter, Martin Quinton and now
another woman thinks it is the body of
her husband.
Some OF our citizens seem to think
yet that the dead man was Joseph
Bailey, but they are mistaken. w. G.
Schultze was at Shawmut last week
and he says Bailey is at that place
alive and at work

an excellent town, just as good as any
other town In the state for the size, but
there is no reason why 1t should not be
larger and better II our citizens desire
better town. 1t depends entirely on
the live citizens of Reynoldsville wheth-
er the town advances and keeps up with
the prosperity all arounds us, or retro
grades. We have plenty of room for
expansion, are not handicapped for want
of railroad facilities, cheap fuel good
water, street cars, electric lights, &C.,
for we have all these and other advan-
tages, In fact we have real good town,
then why not make strenuous efforts to
enlarge? Let us be up and doing,

Two Advertising Schemers.

Last week two smooth looking and
prevaricating advertising schemers
were In town getting up what they
called DIRECTORY of the Different
Local Unions OF Reynoldsvile, but the
Union part was only ruse of the
schemers to make 1t easy for them to
get the merchants to advertise. The
twain made dummy of the directory
and began their work of fraud and de-
ception by marking two OF the adver-
tising spaces taken by one OF the large
and judicious advertising firms of town.
without consent or knowledge OF the
firm, and on the strength OF that they
secured four or five advertisements, but
these advertisements were afterwards
cancelled. Some places where they
failed to get an advertisement they got
name OF proprietor or firm and wrote
an advertisement and afterwards tried
to collect money for same, and when re-
fused they threatened to sue for their
money, but they didn't sue any person,
and five or six, perhaps more, of the
merchants, refused to pay them a cent,
not even compromise by paying half. The
schemers lied about the number of
copies Of the directory they were having
printed. They claimed they were
having 800 copies printed when they
only had 100 printed and about half of
them were never taken out of the
printing office.
They left here on the first train out
Saturday morning and an officer from
Dubois came into town on the S.23 a.
IN. train after them. They were want
ed for skipping printing bill of $32 90
at the Dubois Courier office.

Boy Injured-Ribs Broken.

William Schugrou, young son OF Tim
Schugrou, was badly injured almost in
front OF THE STAR Office Monday fore
noon. The lad was hanging on the
rear end of sled riding up Main street
and he jumped off sled and started to
run TO sidewalk and ran in front OF a
horse and sleigh. The driver did not
see the boy in time to stop his horse
and the boy was knocked down, and it
is claimed that the horse stepped on
the boys back, but that cannot be pos
sible, else tho little fellow would have
been crushed to death. The boy sus-
tanned two fractured ribs on left side.

Conwell was not at his BEST on account

there was considerable humor in the

was great truth that should be the
means OF scattering more sunshine along
LIES pathway for those who hear the
lecture and all the people they come in
