ALEXANDER.— It is with deep regret that we chronicle the death of Mrs. A Alexander,of Mill heim, which occurred on Wednesday eyening of last week,at about 9 o'clock. She had been ailing most of the Sum mer, but was shortly before her death iu apparently fair health. Deceased was the widow of Mr. Amos Alexander, who preceded her to the graye not quite four years ago. She was a daughter of Mr. Christian Keller, of Centre Hall and was married to Mr. Alexander in 1827. Thirty-one years ago ttfley mov ed to the farm, west of town,at present occupied by Mr. C. Alexander, one of her sons. In the year 1865 they moved to town, where they resided in their house,corner of Main and Penn st. eets, ever since. The subject of this notice was always known us a devoted and in dustrious wife, an affectionate mother and a christian lady, having been a member of the Reformed church from her youth up. Her bereaved family looses a beloved relative,while tin com munity is bereft of an esteemed mem ber of its society and a kind and oblig ing neighbor. The funeral took place from the house on Saturday forenoon and was attended by a large number of relations and friends. Services were held in the M. E. church, Rev. Z.A.Yearick offici ating. SHOCKING SUICIDE OF PROF. GRIER. —W. F. Grier, professor of Greek and Latin classics at Lewisburg University* committed suicide last Sunday night while delirious with typhoid fever, ne had been sick for only a few days and Sunday he received a number of visitors at his bedside. About 9 o'clock his wife brought him his medi cine, which he was takiog in milk. lie gruffly ordered her to bring him; some more milk. So sayage was his man ner and so unusual was it with him to speak thus, that his wife became a larmed and left the bedside for assist ance. After some difficulty, she succeeded in waking oue of the professors of the institution and together both returned to the sick room. The wife upon en tering the rooiii was met with tlie sight of her husband lying crosswise upon the bed iu a pool of blood. During her absence he had procured a pocket-knife and with it cut two deep gashes into Loth sides of his neck. These not prov ing fatal, he cut another gash as deep as the blade would allow across his ab domen, and then plunged the knife in to the left breast over the heart, where it remained imbedded until found by those returning. The unfortunate man lingered for a short time and then expired. The affair has cast a gloom over the school, wheie Professor Grier was a general favorite with the stu dents, and upon the community, where he was highly esteemed. Professor Grier leaves a wife and two children. He was a man of exceptionally high iroral character, and, although but 34 years of age, he had held his late posi tion in the University for nearly ten years. He leaves a manuscript of a work on "Roman Literature," that will probably be published.— Suubury Dem. 0c. 31. I — l The excursion train to Oak Hall on Monday forenoon consisted of five passenger cars Hilled with excursion ists. There were about 000 people in attendance at the meeting at Oak Hall, where addiesses wen* made by L. A. Mackey, the president of the meeting, lion. A.G. Ouitin, of Hello fonte, Judge Bucher, of Lewisburg,and James I*. Coburn, of Aaronsburg, all of whom spoke of the work and comple tion ot the new toad. , —The mass meeetlng of the Demora cy of Penns and Brush valleys last, Fri day evening at Millheim was an im mense affair. The evening previous Sheriff Dimkle came from Bellefonte and lasted bills announcing • Hon. A. G. Onrtin the speaker of said meeting. This was a pleasant surprise to our cit izens and ns the news spread it created an intense stirr and excitement. Some of our local politicians at once set to work to make the necessary arrange ments for a creditable reception of our successful congressman. Early on Ftiday morning messengers went out in all directious to arouse the people, tlags and appropriate banners were swung to the breeze and bands were en* gaged. When near train time the Millheim Band boarded its wagon, which was adorned with the words "Curtin aud Victory !" and started for Coburn station. Soon after the liiush Valley band and delegations from al[ the surrounding couutry followed, and when the train, which brought the the Governor from Union county, ar rived, Coburn was thronged with ex cited people aud their conveyances. As 90011 as Curtin had left the cars cheer after cheer went up for him and it fairly looked for a while as if they were going to tear him to pieces then and there. After a few remarks by him ou the hotel porch the long pro cession escorted the old war governor to Millheim where a dense crowd were anxiously awaiting him and who receiv ed him with warm cheering. Supper over, the bauds consolidated and escorted the Governor to the speak er's stand in the Penn street school house yard, which was filled with a large crowd of people, who were eager to hear him talk. The speaker was in troduced by W. C. Heinle in a few complimentary remarks,when the Gov ernor took the floor and made a telliug speech against monopoly and its de structive influence on the country. Ills remarks were warmly applauded. D. F. Fortney and J. W. Geohart also made able addresses. The enthus iara of the people was remarkable and fairly demonstrated their high esteem for their distinguished representative in Congress. It was a day for the Democrats, which will eyer be re membered by the citizens of th3se val leys. —r>Et.sAWHON£iB says the surest way to take cold is to be always hugging the stove. Young mau remember this,and when you go to see your girl on Sunday night don't spend your time hugging the stove; but if you do get a cold Dr. Kessler's Celebrated English Cough Medicine can be relied upou to cure you.
