Saturday night three young fellows
OF Reynoldsville went to Wishaw and
bombarded dwelling house with
stones, smashing several windows. It
is reported that the man.of- the house
shot at the boys and one Of them was
wounded and had to have doctor
dress the wound. Warrants we're is-
sued for the trio and they "smelled
mouse" in time to take a trip for
their health before the strong arm Of
the law gripped them.
The Pittsburgh Post said last Thurs.
day that the contracts for the extern
sion Of the jamestown, Franklin &
Clearfeld road from Brookville to
Clearfield will be awarded the first Of
the year." So far as we know this may
be only newspaper talk, but we are
inclined to believe the statement is
correct. Work on the completion of
the road will certainly be commenced
some time next year. We hope so,
as the new road will not benefit Reyn-
oldsville until the road is completed
this far at least.

county, is excited over what looks like

thought that a railroad which was
partly built some time ago and aban-
doned will be built through Hillsdale
from Arcadia to Decker's Point. The
coal company which has mines at Ar
(, cadis owns about 1900 acres Of land,
extending from Arcadia to Lovejoy.
