Weygand of Beaver Falls Dick Lee, pianist for the Bowdish Stock played a number different from that he had planned last Saturday, when he went through the floor under the abandoned stage of the Marlin Opera House, and through a portion of the ceiling over the Means Bros, store, scaring Bill Means out of suitable words and making the cashier throw away the money she was counting and run for safety. Only a part of Dick's lucky leg went through as it happened, but the ceiling was not helped. Doc. Bowdish and Lee were wrestling with the scenery which was purchased from the owners by him and it was Dick's hard luck to hit a soft spot at the bottom of which once was Hamlet's grave when the great Robert Mantell played here. Incidentally, there is a most excellent lot of scenery for the Brookville Park Theatre among the properties of the Marlin Opera House, which was a theatre second to none in this section when it was at the height of its popularity and usefulness.

Altman was pessimistic regarding the chances of a paying strike the well which is to be drilled to the depth of 7,000 feet at Lamont. The weather prophet said that no oil would be found at that depth, but he believed that if it was possible to punch the hole to a depth of 9,000 feet, the great lake of oil which "Bill" believes exists under the earth's surface would be tapped. He said that he believed the lake was taped in 'Mexican wells sunk to a depth of 6,000 feet, but in this section of the world the earth's' crust is thicker and the lake lays fully 9,000 feet beneath the surface. The noted weather seer predicted a light frost in July to occur near the end of the month, or almost any day after July 23.

JUDGE CORBET MAKES ANNOUNCEMENT To the Electors of Jefferson County: Ten years ago I was elected judge of the county by a majority of the votes cast without distinction of party. Since then and recently many persons of all parties have expressed a desire for my re-election. The CONCRETE DESIRED Brookville's new reservoir will increase by more than sixfold the present water storage capacity, with gallons in the concrete cular walls. The old metal tanks on school hall provide room for only 300,000 gallons at the present time, and 76 feet' nearer sea level than the proposed reservoir. The bids for the construction, not formally advertised yet, will be opened August 12.

As a precaution against too high ngures, estimates are asked on steel tanks besides the reinforced concrete construction With the plant at one end of the Borough and the water pumping sta tion at the other, fire protection of the business district will be of a character which could readily be en vied by any municipality. In addition to this new lines will be laid and sections of the Borough will be benefited which have not had city water and portions which due to high location have had poor force.

Next Sunday evening the service will be in the Presbyterian Church with the Rt.Rev. R. S.

Radcliffe delivering the sermon. Five congregations are co-operating, the Methodist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Evangelical and Episcopal. It starts at 7:30. The sermon of the evening was delivered by the Rev. J.

B. Weygand of the Beaver Falls Evangelical Church, who had spoken at the morning Men's Day service in the Evangelical Church. The evening message called upon the people to simple faith and trust in God. With reference to the "evolution" trial in Tennessee, where the high school teacher, Scopes, is charged with violating the law by teaching a theory of evolution other than that of the Bible, Rev. Weygand scored Clarence Darrow, noted attorney, for defending the teacher.

He said Darrow was famous only for defend mg men like dynamiters and leopoia I T-l 1 1 "thrill." Especially good music was fur-1 wished by some people from the Sprankle Mills section.

"Beautiful Land," "Traveling Home" and "Some Sweet Day." Miss Helen Lingenfelter and Eugene Bish sang a duet number, "The Old Rugged Cross." Mr. Bish sang "The Holy! with excellent eltect. These musicians also sang at the Morning service. The opening prayer and the bene-j diction were said by the Rev.

W. P. Murray and the pastor of the the Rev. S. A.

"The Balloon Girl" is the name of the opening play.

This is a play that made a long ran in New York City, the home of all that is up-to-date in the world of the drama, and is bound to please through its human appeal. It is the work of Robert J. Sherman, and tells the story of a circus girl, some meddling town gossips, and a minister and his wayward sister. Full of droll comedy, and opportunity in other ways to display their art, the Bowdish players with their wealth of experience will capture the audience. Furthermore the play, which is the first of the season, will be a benefit for the Fair Association the frst two nights, and after that a I Percentage will go to the fair and the rest to the players.

The day was an ideal one, and by ten o'clock friends and neighbors beT gan to arrive and continued until noon when the crowd numbered one hundred forty or more persons. Dinner was eaten in the barn which had been made ready for the occasion. Two long tables had been arranged which seated eighty persons at one time. At the center of one table sat the bride and groom of fifty years ago and with them the older rela tives and neighbors. On the center of the table was a basket containing fifty roses, a gift from the grand daughters.

On both tables were bouquets of flowers the gifts of friends but most important was the abundance of good things to eat, to which the crowd did full justice, after a blessing had been asked by Rev. Earl Mohney now of Sunbury, who was reared on a neighboring farm. In the afternoon Photogranher F. E. Knapp of Brookville took a pic ture of the guests.

Mr. and Mrs. Vasbinder were married at the home of the brides' parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Fink of Oliveburg, Oliver Township.

July 13, 1875, and began house-keep ing in tne same nouse in which they are now living. There were present at the wedding fifty years five pe'sons who were present at the golden wedding namely: Mrs. Eliza-beth Snyder, Mrs. D. F.

Thomnsonk Mrs. Anna Curry, Mr. G. W. Mrs.

W. C. Campbell. The afternoon was spent in a social manner and toward the close of an eventful day the guests began to depart wishing Mr. and Mrs.

Vas binder many more anniversaries. Among the gifts received was eighty-five dollars in gold coin of various denominations. The familv wish to thank everyone for the beautiful and useful gifts and for their presence which helped to make the day such a pleasureable one. Those present from a distance were: Mr and Mrs. H.

Many of the workers brought their families with them and are giving the kiddies and wife an outing in a real country place. The children are of course small and families are not large as the steel workers are all young men. Two crews were started to work with air hammers or riveting mach- nes. As the steel which is already erected is only bolted together temporarily, there is considerable work ahead of the riveters. The brick layers are not working now.

Just as soon as the framework of the building is completed the brick and tile siding will be started again. The openings are being driven with several crews of local men in charge of the work. The gas well which the company is drilling on its plant site is now thru the Speachley sand. A small amount of gas was struck in this sand. All available boarding places have been brought into service to take care of the workmen, who have come here to do the structural work.
