Musical Convention in Millheim The musical convention which was held in the M.E. Church of this place under the direction of Prof. Kuizen knabe of llanisburg, Pa., produced a .feeling of entire satisfaction with the members as well as the audience. The occasion proved a success in regard to attendance and perforina el. On Tuesday evening the convention was i opened with prayer by U j v. John Tom iinson, which was followed by a (i root ing Glee and an address of welcome by 11. O. Deininger, Esq. Prof. J. 11. Kurzenknabe responded to that and the election of oflloers for the week was preceded with. The following gentle men were elected by acclamation: Prof. IJ. If. Korzankn ib), President, Mr. S. ! K. Sankey, Vice President, and K. A. Bu miller, Seciatary. The sessions through out the week were conducted according to the pro gramme and in a businesslike manner. Interesting discussions on musical top ics wore had, in which several of our citizens took a lively part. Another tine feature of the exercises was the elegant and delightful music executed by the orchestra under the leadership of Master Geo. J. Kurzenknabe. The Violin and Violin cello S dos perferm ed by M isteri Ge>. # J. aid JO'J.I £. Ku zeuknabe were of a superior grade and elicited admiratio i a ivl praise. The singing was of the best kiud and prov ed, that where art and science work combined in music, as th*y on* it to do the productions will be beyond criti i cis n. Mrs. S. Kurzmkn.ibs also par ticipated iu the exercises and agreea bly surprised the hearers by IRT rich and melodious contralto voice. A few select s.los sung by that lady kept the audience spellbound. Miss Kate L. Shriner of Mitflinburg assisted as or ganist of the convention and we can well say for her, that she di I her duty in a faithful and laudable way. Those sweet little singers, Ida and Mollie Miller, of Mitflinburg, are a credit to their teacher, Miss Shriner. The average attendance through the week was 160 out of a class of 10J members. The community owes a debt of gratitude to Prof. J. 11. Kurzen knabe for his noble and successful ef forts in awakening the dormant talents and powers of vocal music and reviving the interest and love for the same. On Saturday evening the convention ended with a grand concert. The cliuich was packed with a crowd of about 40J people ■ which however ob served the best order during the whole evening. Many cocld not gain admit tance for want of room. The pro gramme consisted of the most select and entertaining pr >iucViou; of music both instrumental and vocal, and was crowned with an extract of the cele brated Coutata of "Krther, the beauti ful Queen." Everybody agreed on the opinion th.*t it was the best entertain ment over Vet witnessed in our vicini ty.

Camp's at Centre Hall. Mr Camp un derstands his business thoroughly and is a, square man to deal with. His furniture is made of the best material, well put together, neat and tasty m de sign and of excellent finish. If you need anything in his line you would do well to give him a call, and examine his i stock and prices before going else | where. J. F. EVERETT & Co.,—the proprie tors of the Mammoth Bee Hive Store, at Lock Haven, again come before the public in a new ndvertisment. Be sure to read it, for it is to your interest as well as theirs. Their stock of good# is so Urge, their assntmeut so full, and they treat their customers so fairly, that people always leave their store de lighted. Their immense business, which constantly increases, enables them to sell so very low. If von go to Lock flavvn don't fall to call at the popular Bee Hive. The other week we got a good joke on Lewin, the genial and popular cloth ier of the Philadelphia Branch, at Bellefonte. Ilf thought ho could suit us In fi' suit of clothing—but he could not. Among all the hundreds of suits, of every possible zra.le and price, there was not a single suit to suit us. The fault however was not in the suits so much as with ours 1 ! ves—or rather our Creator, who made us a trifle too big in circumference for Lewins suits. But. Lew in did not consent to l>e ba 111*1 in that way, and so lie tied two tape measures together, took our size and ordered a suit to be made expressly for us in Philadelphia. Hefassaied es —and his word is as good as old wheat —that the coming suit will suit us ex actly. It is to h of fine blue cloth, of fashionable cut and make, simply a grand affiar throughout. When it comes(?) we will wear it, for we sadly noed it, and feel as happy as a May— shaw, we forget the animal's name. Vry naturally we will a trifle in dependent for a while and won't care to have just anybody speak to us—but we will never go back on those who have befriended us in adversity. No never.

WATSONVILLE, Cal., January 10.— The residents of this place are greatlv excited to-day oVer the news'of an en counter that took place in the moun tains last eveniug between a posse of police and two muiderers named Igna cioTijada and John Leal. The police pur sued them into a thickly-wooded por tion of the mountains and discovered them secreted in a hollow tree. As the police approaclied the murderers open ed firo on them with revolvers. The police returned the fire until both men dropped their arms. They then rush ed in on the pair and found that Leal was mortally wounded and Tijada shot through the body and suffering greatly. As the police passed through the town toward the jail with their prisoners they were followed by a mob, who threatened to lynch the prisoners. A now law in Kansas forbids any peison to marry within six months after procuring a divorce. It ought to be amended so as to make it six years. Henry Harper hang himself on a chestnut tree on the 30tli ult., near Jersey Shore, because his father refus ed to allow him to bring his wife I home. Our neighbor of the Watchman, in the following article hit the truth exactly and fully touching the treat ment of our distinguished member of congress, by Speaker Aeifer. If the petty speaker and Ex-Gor. Curtin were made the factors in a problem of simple equations, any decent mathematician not u stal wart would easily find that, it re quired at least fifty contemptible AYifers to equal one Curtin. The attempt of the little man, clothed with a little brief authority, to do grade our illustrious member and insult our far-famed district, proves entirely futile—falls flatly before the American pc< pic. 4 Governor Curtin nnd Speaker Krlfor The representative of this congres sional district, our fellow townsman, Governor CURTIS, was most discour teously treated by Speaker KKIFKK in the making up of his committees, and the Elk Dtnwcrat indignantly says that lie was almost entirely ignored by the speaker, wlio placed him upon but one committee, and that a compara tively insignificant one. Appreciating the studied slight thus put upon one of Pennsylvania's most illustrious son's ex-K>i>eaker KAXDALL relinquished his place unonone of the committees in favor of tho Governor. The Philadel phia 2\nien of the 27th (lit. lias this to say upon the subject : 4, 1t is possible that Speaker KRIFKR, or those who command him, supposed that they *ere degrading ex-Govereor CURTIN by dis regarding the courtesy that has ever been observed by speakers in assigning him Ilia positions on committees The rule has been that ex-Governors of any party are entitled to a place on foreign relations, or some equally prominent committee ; but CUKTIK, who has been twice elected governor of the second state of the Union and filled a first-class mission for four years, fa denied any recognition in the organisation of the committees of the house.
