—ln the Reporter of Feb. Btli inst.,
Mr. Kurtz, among other insinuations e
qually groundless substantially charges
us with having administered an oath
while acting as Notary Public to a
fraudulent account of S3OO or S4OO, for
printing the new constitution. Know
ing that we never had anything to do
with that matter in any form we clip
ped item and sent it to Mr. G. W.
Foote, of Mifllinburg, our immediate
predecessor, requesting a reply as to
what he knew about it. The following
ijs Mr. Foote ? sanswer, in his own hand
writing and over his own signature,
and we wait to see whether Mr. Kurtz
lias the manhood and sense of justice
to retract the false charge :
'T made oath to having published the
Constitution in three issues of the
CENTRE REPORTER, (Benchter,—Ed)
but not before a Notary Public—it was
before a Justice of the Peace, J. 11.
ileifsnyder, Esq., and I was advised to
do this by three prominent citizens of
Bellet'onte, two Democrats and one Re
publican,they being acquainted with all
the facts."

good and will no doubt be well atten
ded. Tickets for reserved seats can be
had at P. 11. Musser's Jewelry Store.
Better get yours in time.
SETTLED AT LAST.—The Turkey
Ituu School House Debating Club in
Union county has at last finally settled
the much mooted question, 4 'Resolved
that married life is preferable to single
life" by a dicision in the affirmative.
No wonder at all that the atlirmative
gained the day, for we see by the Ttlc
qraph that two "Solomons" argued on
that side. The judges however ought
to have given a qualified decision, to
the effect that any girl worth having as
a wife had bettei die an old maid than
marry a laiy, good-for-nothing, shift
less and thriftless booby who cannot
or will not support at imily. "What do
von think of it, gills ?
—All the bands of Snyder county
* will meet at Middleburg, on tho anni
versary of Washington's birthday.
Plenty of brass and some big blowing
is expected. We suggest that the cele
brated Milllieim band go down there
and knock the spot soft them all. What
say you, Tom V
—The ir<ifr/ttn Acts real ugly in
handling poor Fritzy so roughly for
the manner in which the Reporter office
printed the county statement supple
ments. We are no printer, and of
course no judge of such matters, and
besides that too kind and considerate
I for Fritzy to repeat the Watchman's
' musty language. Fritzy has but one
trade sin re he is played out as a states
man, and if the Watc/inum from sheer
malice and general cussednegs ruins
that, then what V Well, we will have
no lot or part in the heartless business.
—Dvllcfonte presents a striking ex
ample'ot U\e serious results ot U\e Im
provement crazs that swept over the
state ten to fifteen years ago, during
the times when the inflated prices of
labor ruled perhaps higher than ever
before or since. The building of a
new house, the new reservoir,
the opeuiug and grading of new streets,
are the principal factois that saddled
the enormous debt of $121,00) on our
beautiful and otherwise prosperous
couuty town. It requires a tax levy of
ten mills to pay tlie interest on the
borough debt alone, which with the
other taxes necessary for current ex
pellees run up to the fearful aggregate
of thirty-three mills, without raising
one dollar as a sinking fund to decrease
tiie burdensome debt.
Perhaps the worst feature <>f tlie
matter is that there eems to be no
way to raise additional revenue for im
provements that are imperative,as for ex<
ample the rebuilding ot the High street,
bridge recently swept away by the ice
flood, as the borough has already ex
ceeded its constitutional limit of debt
making by about one hundred per
cent.
In this dilemma the citizens of Bellc
fonte strongly appeal to the Board of
County Commissioners to take the job
off their hands and build a county
bridge entire. Their pi ea gains much
force from the fact th at the bridge was
and again wili be largely used by many
citizens of the county outside of Belle
fonte. The Commissioners propose to
erect an iron bridge if Bellefonte builds
the abutments, but tire citizens of
Bellefonte say tliey are utterly unable
to do even this.
Iu matters of public improvements
absolutely necessary the JOURNAL has
always favored a liberal policy, and we
hope the commissieners will give our
distressed neighbors all the aid they can,
consistent with their duties as ward
t ens of the people's money.

J)cr Fricdcrich, der Friedreich,
])(Y bilterboese JJietcrich !
Freddy had so liltle to say last week
that we really pity him in the goodness
of our big "Jumbo" heart. His chron
ic trouble about our democracy is no
doubt becoming wearisome to bis read
ers,but is entirely harmless to us. His
long range, flings at somebody out west
are as futile as they are indecent and
only show what kiwi of an animal he
is. Try again, Freddy— guess work is
as good as any, if it hits. But before
you busy yomsclf about our democracy
again, "don't you forget it" that you
placed your democracy on tiial before
the people of IVnn'e Valley only a few
months ago, and t hat your Jejj'crsonion
Jttcksonion "rain or shine" democracy
commanded only a few scattering votes
in the northern precinct of Potter
township 1 Von may write leha HOD
again. Why Freddy, vonr whilom
republican competitor, Prof. Meyer,
bout you out of your boots, right in
your own valley, where the prestige
and influence of your "great and good
Reporter" ought to have made you im
mensch/ popular. This matter sadly
needs explanation and we cheerfully
yici 1 you the floor, (let your neighbor
John C -y to refresh your memory
on the details, then tell us how it all
happened. It will supply an interest
ing link in your "history" which Mr.
Linn so cruelly omitted. Meanwhile
you may scold us abolitionist to vom
heart's content, the public will of
course consider the point well put and
very timely.
Mr. Kurtz established his CENTRE
IIALI. Reporter some fifteen years ago,
but never publicly claimed that it was
the continuation of the old Ccntrs Re
richter until Jan. 4th of the present
year. If lie really thought his new Jit
porter was the identical old Wenic/iU'r,he
should have made that claim in the
first issue of Hie JicjxnUr and all the
time since. But bo did uot, and most
probably for the reason that such a
claim then would likely liavo resulted
in a suit at law w\t\v his aged father.
We do not dispute Freddy's right to
name his paper just anything he pleases
—Centre Kijxnrter or CENTRE HALL
SOCKDOLAGER, for that is all a matter
of choice and taste ; but we do most de
cidedly insist that the JOCRN AL is the
real old Jkrichter and that the Reporter
is rent. lie tried to make a point a
gainst us a few weeks ago by saying
that we "abandoned" the old name of
the paper. So we did, for goal rea
sons and with a clear right, hat we
never "abandoned" the identity of the
JOURNAL and never will. We have
made but one change, and that a per
manent one, in the title of our paper,
while the Kurtzes made at least three.
The poor old thing had about as many
names as a European prince -1 )cr Cen
tre Jitrichter, Jicricktrr and Antfiyer,
Dcmokrntischcr Rtrich'.er , and Freddy
even changed his title from Ccntrt
Jlall Reporter to Centre lit porter, pre
sumably for the reason that a town of
"80J population" is entiiely too small
to hold so "great and good" a paper.
Freddy should be about the last man to
lecture us for abandoning names.
Since the beginning of the year Fred
dy flaunts the false and fraudulent
claim in the bold, brazen words, "Vol
ume—Old Series XL, New Series XVI,"
but that defiant falsehood must and will
some time come down, nolens volcns,
Freddy may bet his bottom dollar on
that.
Ou this point we will let one of our
predecessors speak, who is thoroughly
conversant on the subject. Freddy
may be able to bit the mark a tritie
nearer this trip, by guessing who it is.
We claim no copyright on the subject
matter and will generously permit Mr.
Linn, or any other prominent historian
to use it gratis as the First chapter in
any probable "New Series" of the Life
of the IION. FREDERICK KURTZ :
Somewhere, Jan. 18S3.
Editor Journal :
In looking
over an editorial in the Centre Reporter
of a recent dite 1 notice that its capper
and paster claims to be the oldest editor
in Centre county, 01 in central Penn
sylvania. It is a very broad claim for
so diminutive a character—physically
and particularly mentally—to make,
but every one in Centre county knows
that it is uttcily false. Just hear
him
The REPOHTEK was established In Aupust
1827. Its Old Series would be Vol. 10. Its New
Series dating foim cur removal U> this place,
now Vol. I*>. make tiie combined itßcol the RE
POKTER 55 years—not taking in a few months to
make the bcgining ami eudiiu? of the Volume
correspondent with the closing of the calender
year.
Now this i 3 decidedly licit. True,
the "Berk-liter was established in 1827"
as lie says, but was published uninter
ruptedly from that date until May Otli,
1870,—excepting a few months after
Fritz took what he pleased to Centre
11 all, leaving the "hell" he says he left
behind in utter chaos and confusion.
What the poor old man s.-id touching
the conduct of "nu i Fritz" in this
matter, Ido not derm necessary here
to repeat, but will only say that lie
was broken hearted and shed bitter
tears.
The Centre Hall Reporter was started j
in 1808, and the Btr kilter was publish
ed under the old name an* il May oth,
1870, a period of eight years later,when
the title was changed into MILLIXEIM
JOURNAL. NOW any man who is not
nine tenths a fool, or else a brazen-fac
ed Hessian , must know that no " new
series" of a paper can be claimed while
the parent journal is still published.
The Reporter is only fifteen years old
and all that "Fritz" claims and says a
bout "old series" and "new series" is
the merest bosh, the thinnest kind of
thin stuff, and will deceive no one but
the willfully stupid.

We left Cobur* on the 17th
of January at 3 P. M., ami were carried through
our native mountains ami the beautiful Buffa
lo Valley an fast as the old engine conhl pull us,
arihing at Montandon at 7 o'clock and at liar
risbnrgHt 10 40 p. M. llere no waited oil the
fast express until midnight, ami then we sjed
westward hot fast enough to satisfy the tnot
honied tmvelcr. We had a speedy ami very
pleasant trip, although it was very cold, and
arrived safety at Ellsworth, Jau.2tt.lt, at lft. 55,
in good time to take dinner with the family >f
our friend and cousin Rev. J. A. Bright. You
can bet high, Mr. Kditor, that Arvivt had a
great manv <iuesUcms to ask. about our common
fatherland. He Is one of your Inquisitive chaps
who wjnts to know simply everything about

and \s e tvved to j\\e Wro fullest possible lutor
-1 .'uafioo Ui the few hours we had 'it our disposal
on the stains of matter* in old JVJIM'.S Y&Uey.
The v 'o\le, the church, the changes in social
and business life, the lately married as well us
the departed ones—even "ye editor" and
hi- family—all came lu for a goodly share of our
conversation. Of one thing 1 can fully assure
our okl friends and neighbors, namely that .Mr.
Bright and his family have nt lost their affec
tion* for .heir old liicuds. their old home, with
the many pleasant and sacred usso.i iti > is that
cluster around them. And this feeling—need I
say it 7 1 share to the fullest extent. After din
ner we made preparations to leave for home.

Tiie potato bug has lived through Iho
winter, unharmed by storms or tloods.
While workmen were digging for sand
near .Scranton, a few days ago, they
found thousands of living potato bugs
fifteen feet below the surface.
An owl fought with two crows for
an hour near Bethlehem last Friday.
The owl was at a disadvantage owing
to the sunlight, but after flying froui
tree to tree he finished the battle on
the ground by killing one crow and
blinding the other. When the owl flew
toward the woods, however, he was
followed by a score of crows, evidently
determined on vengeance.
An exchange says some folks poke
fun at newspapers for speaking of a fall
of snow or other remarkable changes of
the weather, when everybody knows it
as well as the reporters. change ia
the weather is not published as news,
but as a matter of record, to which it
may refer some future day, A Single
note of this kind has been known to
settle an important disputed point years
after the event.
COLEMAN WAS one of the miners
whom the Ruby snow-slide in Colorado
swept down the mountains. Though
buried several feet deep ho f jught his
way to the surface. When he had time
to examine himself lie found that o.ie
of his shoulders was broken, lie had
been stripped of his clothing,moreoyer,
and emeigtd as a brother of Aphrodite,
naked from the snow froth. Instead
of limping away Coleman began a long
search for his comrades. One of these,
Scott, he found at last, and, digging
the unconscious man from the snow,
dragged him to a cabin, where life was
brought back.
Fatal Explosion of Compound
Cartridges.
WILLIAMSPOUT, February 12.—At a
blacksmith shop near the deep cut on
the Jersey Shore, Fine Creek and Buffa
lo Railroad, a short dlstauce west of
Jersey Shore borough, an explosion of
compound cartridges occurred to day,
by which James blacksmith,
lost his life. The top of his head, one
leg and one hand were blown off. His
hand was afterwards picked up ia a
field near by. Watters was between
twenty-one and twenty-two yeais of
age and had been recently married.
A Great Storm Predicted.
Dr. E. Stone Wiggins of the Finance
Department of Ontario, *ho some time
ago predicted that the recent gale
would sweep ftom east to west over
the continent, savs a gifat storm will
strike this planet in Maxell, lie gives
this timely warning.
"It will be first felt in tho Northern
Pacific, and will cross the Meridian of
Ottawa at noon (. r P. M., London time)
on Sunday, March 11, IJSB3. No vessel
smaller than a Cunarder will be aide to
live in this tempest. India, tho south
of Europe, England and especially the
North American Continent will bo the
area of its ravages. As all the low
lands on the Atl 11 ic will bo submerg
ed, I advise ship builders to place their
prospective vessels high up on stocks,
and fanners having loose valuables,
such as hay, cattle, ect., to remove
them to a place of safety. 1 beg furth
er, most respectfully to appeal to the
honorable Minister of Marine that tie
will peremptorily order up storm drums
on all the Canadian coast not later than
the L'tKn of February, and thus permit
no vessel to leave the iuubur. If this
is not done, hundreds of lives will be
lost and millions worth cf property Ue
stroyed."
