Painful.


A little story comes from way back
concerning Forrest. the tragedian.
1t was during his last appearance
at Niblo's Garden, in New York. At
the time he was suffering untold tor
ture from the govt. A sort Of rum
way had to be constructed from the
stage to the dressing room, for be was
quite unable to step up or down stairs.
The performance had been "Corio-
lanus." and Forrest was petulant from
pain and tired with his work. He
stumbled against the runway. causing
such a twinge in his toe as to make
him cry out with the pain.
A young actor standing BY unfortu-
nately addressed the tragedian at the
wrong time. saying:
Dear me, Mr.. Forrest. that must
have been exceedingly painful"
mot half so painful as your acting
was the crusty response.

Scathing Arraignment.

Not long since New York magis-
trate, Whitman by name, in addressing
the New York Lawyers Club, was
moved to make most scathing ar
raignment of the liquor traffic. He
said: "Personally, if had the power
| would close every saloon In the United
States, and am not crank or fanatic
on the liquor question. | drink my
self, whenever l care to- and probably
shall continue to do so. am willing
that every other man shall have the
same rights that have. But when
you sit on the bench that l sit on and
see seventy per cent of the cases which
come before you, and see the misery,
distress and crime, all due to liquor.

in his veins is likely to feel that the
world would be better off II the liquor
saloons could be crushed out, cost what
it may. l believe it is the most
abominable, the most outrageous, and

York city"

Judge Misinformed.

At the Brookville court last week
there was case on trial from Reyn-
oldsville, in which man was charged
with keeping a discrderiy house. Judge
Reed after listening to the evidence,
took occasion to say in substance that
II understand that Reynoldsville has
more disorderly houses than all the
rest of the county want you to know
that the court is aware OF this condi-
tion and that | will give the offenders
the extreme penalty in cases of that
nature from there" He then sentenced
the offender on trial to one year in the
penitentiary and fine of Sl.-Brook-
vile Democrat
OWhile it is true that Reynoldsvile
has more disorderly houses than it
should have, yet we deny the state
ment that Reynoldsville is more cor
rupt In this respect "then all the rest
OF Jefferson county" simply because
some of the good citiz ms of our town
have stirred up the pool Of immortality
and exposed the filthy condition to the
outside world, don't say we have more
immoral people than the balance OF
the county. II some of the other towns
would stir up the pool they would find
more mire, perhaps, than they think.
However, it is to be hoped that Judge
Reed, who has been misinformed so
far as comparison to the entire county
is concerned, will give every guilty
person from Reynoldsville the limit
of the law for conducting houses of
i'll fame.

Patronize Home Stores.

Frequently mention has been made
in THE STAR that one OF the great
drawbacks to the prosperity OF Reyn
oldsville is the fact that too many Of
our citizens, including number of our
business men, send out of town, or go
to other towns, to buy goods. There
are merchants who will send out of
town for groceries and there are others
who send out OF town for dry goods,
furniture, &C., and every one Of them
are making their living in Reynolds.

quest us to call attention to these facts
and the same fellow was sending out
Of town for printing. No one can gain
say this statement, and yet it ought
not be so. There is not another town
In this section OF the state where so
many citizens run to other towns and
cities to buy goods. 1t is deplorable
condition but it is fact just the same.
In many cases they pay more for their
goods than they would pay for the
same thing in Reynoldsville. There is
one thing sure, the fellow who sends
out of town Tor goods has no right to
kick If his neighbor sends out Of town
for something. IL is inconsistent. 1t
is high time that every business man,
at least, be he dry goods merchant,
grocreyman, clothier, banker, butcher
or furniture dealer, resolve that he will
spend his money among the other
business men of town. If your neigh

SAN PEDRO, Dec. 1.-THE electric
dredge "Tulita w. Miner" which has
been working on the easterly channel
of the Miner concession of the outer
harbor, capsized this afternoon about
o'clock mad now lies on her side al
most completely submerged in 20 feet of
water.
The crew escaped, but all of their
personal effects went down with the
dredger. 1t is not known what caused
the accident. A strong east wind was
blowing and ii is belied by some that
the dredger sprung a leak and filled
with water. Others think the dredg-
er collapsed, and broke in two.
The men on board were Engineer Os-
borne, Assistant Engineer Bale, Lever
man Clark and two deck hands.
Chief Engineer Osborn said: "As I
came out of the engine room and went
aft, [ felt the dredge list to starboard.
l gave the warning and before we
could get our personal effects off we
had to leave the dredge as she was
rapidly filling. In less than minute
after we left her she turned over and
sank"
The dredge is owned by the Outer
Harbor Dock and Wharf company, and
is valued at S45, 900. 1t has often been
stated that she was not the success
that was expected, but some work has
been done since she went into COM
