THREE REASONS.—The reasons Doll
& Mingle, in Bellefonte, do such a

tisers and square men to deal with.

mer supplies of clothing for yourself

FIRE.— On Tuesday about noon the
dreaded cry of fire was heard on our
street. Our people rushed to the scene,
which proved to be Squire Reifsynder's
summer kitchen. The entire inside of
the roof was all ablaze when discovered
but fortunately the fire had not yet
broken fully through the roof. Ready
hands were instantly at work flooding
the building with water and afterwards
tearing off the entire roof The fire
was soon extinguished. Had it been
discovered a little later or had our peo-.
pie been less expert or daring, it might
be our sad duty to-day to record the
destruction of a good portion of our
town. As it was it is another warn
ing to our citizens to adopt sime meas
ure to fight the destructive flend suc
cessful in case of au emergency. Will
it be heeded ?
—The Central Mfg, Co. of Lewis
burg are doing an immense business
this year. They have been in business
for twenty-two years and are building
more machines than ever before. The
Buckeye mower, so well known in this
county, is still kept at the head of the
list. The Bates Harvester introduced
iu ISBO at once took the lead, the sale
in our county being 2 in 'Bo* 6 in *Bl and
46 last year. Their agents In this
county, Jno. DeLong A S. Strohecker,
sJd last year 49 machines. Farmers
should remember tb*t these machines
are not yankee grimcracks, but made
on the line of our railroad. The shops
can be reached twice a day* making it
very convenient for repairs. Their
machines are all put out on their mer
its, warranted durable, well made, of
good material and run light, and as
the record proves will outlast any oth
er machine in the market. Machines
built by this company 22 years ago are
still running in this county. 3t
—The Bellefonte Republican gives its
readers the following bit of informa
tion on dog law. The law is a trifle
defective, iuasmucb as it does not spe
cifically state what a dog may lawfully
do when he catches a fellow slealinj
hems. If we were a ' scmblynian we
would have It amended:
"If anyone is attacked on the high
way by a dog the party has a right to
kill the dog, and the owner can be held
accountable for any injury inflicted bv
the animal. Even on the premises of
the owner of a dog, should a party be
attacked and injured, after endeavoring
to protect himself, the owner can be
made responsible for damages inflicted
provided it can be shown that at the
time he was in pursuit of business or
on a friendly visit. If a dog by bark
ing at passing horses and vehicles oc
casions any damage, its owner is liable
for the loss sustained. Thus the law
very properly affords people protection
for loss or injury caused by dogs."

Decoration Day at Spring Mills.
The Veteran Club of Spring Mills,
Farmers* Mills Cornet Band and Geor
ge's Valley Sunday School marched to
the George's Valley Cemetery and dec
orated the graves of the departed he
roes, after which Prof, Lewis Reiter
delivered a very able and eloquent ad
dress, which very forcibly brought
back the memories of years ago, when
we stood side by side with those who
now si umber in the silent tomb. - The
Veteran Club, Cornet Band and SpriDg
Mills Sabbath School assembled in
Grenoble's Hall from whence they pro
ceeded in solemn procession to Spring
, Mills Cemetery and strew their flowers
and evergreens on the graves of the
patriot dead, who sleep their long sleep
in this quiet, beautiful spot. The Rev.
Furman Adams then delivered a very
instructive and impressive address, af
ter which the large assemblage of peo
ple dispersed. All these exercises were
well attended, everything was marked
with the solemnity due the occasion.***

Evangelical S. S. of Millheim held its
fi-st quarterly meeting on the Eve of
May 22nd ISB2.
The attendance, though inclement
Weather, was good and showed the
grtb of interest manifested by the
members.
Since the organisation of the Society,
last March, the memoeishlb, and inter
est in Missionary work, have greatly in
creased.
The musical artd literary exercises at
each monthly meeting, being the se
cond Monday evening of each month,
are of an interesting and entertaining
character and are cheering to the
hearts ot the young while the middle
aged delight "to see the young so gay,"
and all are learning moie and more
concerning the needs of the heathen
and destitute while all are being more
deeply touched with the feeling of sym
pathy for the poor and the depraved.
Financially the society is doing well,
and quite a number have volenteered
to raise cor nor potatoes, a brood of
chickens, turkeys or fouls of tome kiud
gardeu vegetables or earn money some
way> id Autumn the society ex*
pects to have a groat "gathering-in
day" ot "harvest-day" when the pro
ducts are to he brought together and
all can behold the fruits of a little toil
nnd labor for the aiding of missionaries
In striving to spread the Gospel of
Peace, —Salvations of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ, to thr world.
The next monthly meeting is to be
held in the Evangelical church on
Monday evening June 12, —all are in
vited to be present, and bring their
singing books along. Let nil come
with cheerful hearts for singing, litera
ry exercises, aud work. # # *
A Murderous Assault.
OQ Monday morning last Anthony
Mayes, a young man residing in this
city, and Warren Mix, a lumberman
from Driftwood, hired at the livery
Stable of Smith & Probst a horse and
buggy to drive to LogansYille. While
tbey were In the narrows, near Mt.
Pleasant church, Mayes drew a revolv
er and shot his companion twice, the
first shot entering the cheek below the
left eye and the second penetrating the
jaw. Mix grappled Mayes aud a Strug*
gle ensued, during which the latter
was either thrown or jumped out of the
vehicle, and ran off. Mix then took
up the reins and drove to the nearest
house, where he received assistance and
was conducted to Logansville. lie
was takeu from there to Mill Ilall, and
iu the evening Was brought to this
city, where liis wouuds, which are not
thought to be dangerous received a
surgeon's treatment.
A warrant for the arrest of Mayes
was issued by an alderman of this city,
and the officers have been making
efforts to apprehend him, but up to
this writing he has not been found,
lie is a young man, somewberes iu the
twenties,about 5 feet 8 inches iu height,
and Weighs in the neighborhood of 160
pounds. Ila was in his shirt sleeves
when lie left the wounded man, and
had on a blue shirt and light suspend
ers. He bad no coat with him. His
face is rather longer, than broad, light
complexioned; his hair is dark.
The incentive to the assault is sup
pesed to have beau robbery, as Mix bad
about $2 r >o in his possession and it is
asserted that Mayes knew the fact.—
Clinton l)emon K <XL
This is presumably the same An
thony Mayes Who for several years had
his home about Millheim. Although
he Could hardly be considered a model
young man while here, no oae would
have considered bim capable of silCh a
wicked act.

THE KINTZLUJR MURDER
EKS.
Ordered by Judge Bucher to be
Chained to Their Cells.
A correspondent of the Reading
News writing from Middleburg, Snyder
county, says: About a week before
court a burglar confined in jail here
made bis escape, which put Judge
Bucher on his mettle* aud he said to
Sheriff Reichley:
"You must chain Uriah Moyer and
Israel Erb, the convicted Kintzler
murderers, of else take the full conse
quences if they escape."
Sheriff Reichly replied that he Ipitied
the men, whereupon the judge answer
ed:
"Well, if they escape who will pity
you ?T ou can be indicted for not
keeping prisoners secure and allowing
them to escape." The sheriff then
chained Moyer and Brb.
The Bartholomew heirs hare heard
from their committee which recently
went to Germany to look after their
lost fortune. According to the news
papers the committee report that the
fortune is a sure thiDg and that the
money will soon be forthcoming.—Clin

A Church Fallg, Killing Si*
Persons.
LANCASTER, Ta., May 28.—While a
congregation of Dunkards was engag
ed yesterday in raising a frame church
in Rapho township, this country, the
structure fell, and at least fifty men
were caught uader the timbers. The
following were killedi John Shenk*
Samuel Witmoyer, Samuel Blecher,
Jacob Gibble and Jacob Kendig.
Twelye others were badly maimed*
RISKY.—A law of the United States
revised statute* will make it lively for
any one Who fancies he can fill up
holes in a punched coin for the purpose
of passing it off on his unsuspected
neighbor. The penalty is $3,000 or
imprisonment for five years, at the
discretion of the toutt or both;
As ttotiAL.—There were the tisUal
nitmber of pickpockets and
swindlers following after the Circus.
In the afternoon thflre was a rush for
tickets and this was the time for the
villains. Mr. Levi Shoemaker,of West
Buffalo twp., had his pocket book ta- ]
ken from bis pocket. It Contained a- ,
bout $45.00 id money and valuable pa- j
tiers. Others had money stolen from
their hands and were swindled out of
it In different ways.— Levtislurg Journ

Preparing for a Great Famitie. j
From the CMcAgd ihWs.
A bachelor named Talt, residing
near Wabash, has for many years de
clined to dispose of any of the wheat
produced on his farm. The idea has
taken firm lodgement in his mind that
he is to be married and ttie father of a
large family, and he is just as ambi
tious to rai6e large crops and stone
them up as the average American citi
zen is to accumulate mountains of sil
ver and gold. Mr. Tait is further pos
sessed of the idea that a great famine
will visit the land la the far-off future,
and that he wilt then need every pound
of his wheat to supply the wants of his
family.
