EXPERIENCE WITHOUT GAS.
A Falling Tree Shut OFF Gas Supply for
Twenty-Four Hours.

About one o'clock last Saturday after
noon the gas supply suddenly stopped
ana there were many homes In Reyn
| oldsyille that were left without heat
Ihere were various rumors afioat as tC
cause OF sudden stoppage, but the real
cause was not known for several hours
when 1t was learned that a large tree,
that had been uprooted by the high
winds, fell across the main pipe line In
aravine near Sugar Hill, breaking the
pipe at joint, and IL required consid-
ei able labor to make the repair, which
was not completed until noon Sunday,
twentyfour hours after the pipe was
broken.
Some people depend on gas en-
tirely for light and heat, not having
stove in their homes that they could
burn coal in, and these people had to
seek the hospitality Of their more for
tunate neighbors who burned coal or
were prepared for such an emergency.
some who did have stoves that thew
could burn coal in didn't have coal and
there was considerable excitement aud
hustiing around to get some means for
heat and light. People were seen going
IN all directions carrying oil cans and
lamps or lamp chimneys, or a hand full
OF candles. People that have CRATES
ana no coal stoves, made the CRATE
answer for the cooking purpose. Some
people turned their laundry or summer
kitchens, where they have coal stoves,
into kitchen, dining room and sitting
room. Ye editor was fortunate enough
to have large coal stove In printing
oillce where our meals were cooked
during the gas famine.
The factories that are run by gas en-
gines had to shut down Saturday after
noon. Six teams we're put to work
hauling mine props to keep up the fires
at glass plant to Keep the large tank of
glass from getting cold, which would
have been big loss to the glass com
pany. Some of the stores are lighted
with electricity and they were not ef.
iected for lights, but the other stores
had to get along with oil lamps, which
gave the stores very dingy appearance.
Inc Reynolds drug store used candles
FOR lighting and had as high as eighty
candles burning at one time lin various
parts OF the store, giving the store a
novel appearance.
There was neither Sunday school nor
preaching service in the PRESBYTERIAN
church Sunday morning on account of
no gas.
Crackers and cheese was the bill of
lare In many homes Saturday evening.
The Imperial barbershop and James
Butler's barbershop had electric lights
put in Saturday afternoon,
The gas was appreciated when it was
turned on again
Fails Creek and Dubois people had
tne same experience as the Reynolds
vile people, as the pipe line that was
broken supplies the three towns.

They Did the Work Splendidly.

What we said last week about the
visit of the Reynoldsville degree team
to the Odd Fellows lodge here on We'd
nesday evening, was written before
their arrival, and Of course before we
saw their work 1t was all right, what
we said, but was far short of what
should have been said. The team con.
ferred the lnitiatory and First Degrees
in Brookville lodge, and did by far the
best work that was ever done in that
lodge room. All who witnessed the
work were surprised and delighted.
Nearly all who were present had seen
the work OF the Bradford team, and
felt that the work of the Reynoldsville
boys suffered but little in comparison
Herewith. The stage setting OF the
Bradford team work was much finer,
but we think the Reynoldsville work is
better adapted to the ordinary lodge
room, All things considered, we deem
the work of the Reynoldsville team
equal to any we have seen. The work
Of the first degree is especially fine and
spirited, and presented vividly the
characters OF David, Jonothan and
Saul. Such work as this could not fail
TO make Odd Fellows lodge meetings
interesting ng.-Brooyille Democrat

Fascinating Lecture.

In the truest sense masterpiece.
This can be said OF the lecture on "The
Trial of Jesus from a Lawyers Stand
point" as delivered by the Hon. Walter
NJ. Chandler, OF the New York Bar.
Mr.. Chandler possesses fine voice, is
skilled In the use of words, presents a
splendid appearance on the platform,
and is withal Christian gentleman.
His hearers are won at the fall of the
first few words and the eyes of all are
rivited on him. He is a master of the
law, interprets 1t without fault and
leads his hearers from one sumblime
realm to another. What may appear
to be from the nature Of the subject. a
dry lecture, proves a most fascinating
and instructive discourse Of the worlds
greatest tragedy. Men from all ranks
unite in unstinted praise of the high
moral value OF this lecture. He will
fill return date In Elmira soon. AS
sociations will do well to see that Mr..
Chandler has no vacant dates.-H. N.

High Speed Typists

A STAR reporter visited the type
writer department OF the Reynoldsville
Business College recently and while
there held stop watch during trial
tests of speed made by several students.
Will F. Herpel, who has not yet finished
tie prescribed course, averaged seven
ty-eight and two third words a minute,
producing work clean and free from
errors, and the others, George Hughes
and Miss Ethelyn Winslow, made
records equally good in proportion to
the time they have practiced. When
1t is considered that the average man
speaks only about one hundred words a
minute, this speed upon a typewriter
seems almost incredible, and it is rend-
cred possible only by the use in this
college of new system of touch type
writing wherein the student never
needs to look at the keys and is thus
enabled TO keep his eyes constantly on
the copy. Prof. Hughes is an expert
typist himself and recognizes the i'm
portance of this art in the modern busi-
ness world. He has paid special at
tention to this department and has
eight OF the latest improved Smith
Premier and Remington typewriters
constantly in use in the college. The
course prepares for actual business and
includes work of every kind from a
business note to complicated bill Of
goods or lawyers brief.
