Long had a close escape from being strangled to death on Tuesday morning. She got hold of a liniment bottle and pulling the cork, poured the contents oyer her face. For a time she suffered intensely, but by strenuous efforts the attending physician got her safely over it. —Last Thursday the advance agent of Walter L. Main's circus came to town with a crew of bill posters and decorated every available place with glaring show bills, to the great delight of the small boys and some of the big boys. Main's show was in town sever al years ago and gave splendid satis faction and we don't doubt that their exhibitions next Monday will be greet ed by large crowds. —The quart PI ly moot ing in tho U. B.chuich last Sunday was favored with good success. The Lords supper in the forenoon was participated in hy 70 communicants and theservices through out were well attended. —''Daisy" is the name, and it is a daisy. We mean the corset we just received. It is worked in fancy silk, has an elegant and well-flttlng shape and sells for 33 cents. The biggest run of the season. Call at our store on Main street. I). S. KAUFFMAN & Co. —The Indiana Times of a recent date says : The Walter Main Circus troupe gave two performances here yesterday, which were largely attend ed. It is one of the old fashioned "road shows," and gives more gen uine amusement for 23cents, than any railroad show that has visited us. The D'Alma family is a whole show itself, while the general acrobatic and other performances were unsurpassed. The wonderfully trained dogs of Prof. May are alone worth the price of ad mission. —The painters are about Uuishing .1. W. Stover's store oo Main street and it will be one of the neatest and most pleasant business places iu town. The front panel work is painted jet black, relieved by gold, and looks very at tractive. The two show windows are encased by heavy french plate glass and everything about the interior of the place is in conformity with its ex ternal appearance. When ready for business,which will be in a short time, Mr. Stover will make an announcement of it through the JOURNAL. SCHOOL NOTICE. —Mr. J. F.

Iu order to do justice to large and small scholars he will grade the school and for that purpose employ an assistant teacher. Further infor mation can be had from the borough school directors. —On Friday Main's New Interna tional Show exhibited in this place, af ternoon and evening. The peiforman ces were creditable throughout,and in deed were superior to those usually witnessed in shows of its class. The band furnished excellent music ; the trained horses and dogs were worth seeing ; the contortionists were A No. 1 ; the trapeze performances were goo. l. Main's show is one of the best little shows on the road, as the large audi ence which attended on Friday even ing will testify.— Cononshurg, Pa., lia ra!. DISTRESSING ACCIDENT. Last Wednesday morning, Mrs Jacob Breon, residing on one of Jonathan Darter's farms in Pena township, was at Elias Smith's, about a mile east of Penn Ilall, to pick sour cberiies. She had climed on one of the trees, and being a lusty woman, her weight proved too much for the limb she stood on. It broke and she fell heavily to the ground sustaining a severe fracture of the left arm near the wrist. She also received some bruises about her body and could not be removed to her home until the next day. Medical assistance was at once procured and the lady is doing as well as can be expected. • —Cha9. Guinness Co., from New York, who played Peck's Bad Boy and That Awful Girl in the towu ball of this place last Jfonday evening, gave a better entertainment than we had here for many years. It is a most humor ous play and the actors performed their rolls to such perfection that the au dience was kept in an uproarious mer riment during the whole evening. As part of the proceeds were to go to the baud, the boys gaye the town and sur rounding country a good canvass be forehand and were rewarded by a full house. The street parade in the even ing was rendered very comical by the donkey and the "royal bumper" fol lowing the band wagon. If ever the the troupe returns to this town, we think they will draw a larger crowd. Gor.ED TO DE\TII.— On Saturday afternoon, July 3rd, Mrs. Samuel Wal ker, of Nittany Valley, while driving some cattle to the field, was attacked by a vicious bull. The mad animal dragged the unfortunate lady for sever al rods, goring her teriibly all the while and finally left her to her fate, with three broken ribs and other ser ious internal injuries. IJer little girl, who witnessed part of the accident but could be of no assistance, gave the a larm by ringing the farm bell, which brought the men, who were at work on the fields, and who carried the wounded lady to the house. She laid there in great pain until Sunday when she became unconscious aud remained so until the time of her death, ou the fol lowing Tuesday. —The Fourth was an exceedingly quiet day in Millheim, owing to the busy haying and harvest season. But shortly after sundown the farmers flocked to town and the streets became crowded with people. The band struck up on Main street and marched down Penn to the rink, where the festival of the M. E. Ladies' Mite Society was in progress. Naturally the crowd followed the band and soon the managers and waiters of the festi val had their hands full attending to the wants of their numerous customers Business was brisk there until a late hour and the people seemed in splen did spirits as they gathered around the many well-arranged tables to partake of the delicious ice cream ana cakes, while the band for more than an hour filled the spacious building with de lightful strains of music. The net proceeds irora the festival amounted to over $72. At about half past nine o'- clock a nice display of fireworks was given on the sheep hill, east of town, which was witnessed with much admir ation by those who could get there in time to see it. DEATH. —On Friday, .Inly 2nd, Mrs. Hurler, the widow of Geo. Ilarter, dec'd, late of Millheiiu, departed this life at Annville, Lycoming county, where she resided for the last few years with a sister. Her husband, who was a well-known clti'/.en of this place, pro ceeded her about four years ago. The lady had reached the age of 78 years, 0 months, and 8 days, and died in the full hope of a faithful christian. Her funeral took place on Sunday and was attended by a number of her relations from this place, among them (J. W. Ilarter, EuTl. Ilarter and wife, Mrs. A. It. Alexander. A SHOCKING DEATH. —On Satur day morning, July Jrd, tlie community around Centre Hill, this county, was gieally horrified by the drowning of Mrs. Mollle NefT, widow of the late Col. Josiah Neff, of Centre Ilill. The Bellefonte Daily Nem in chronicling the sad occurrence goes on to say that Mrs. Neff and her daughter. Miss Sue NefT, resided together in a flue country residence on ono of the bast farms in Centie county. She was a lady of a bout Go years of age, of excellent phys ical health, but recently she imagined that she was ill and called in medical assistance. The result of the* medi cal examination was that Mrs. NefT was well physically, hut that, by reason of receit troubles, chief among which was the death of her husband about two years ago, her mind was becoming deranged and her friends were advised to re double their 4A*o of her. On Saturday morning her daughter left her upstairs, and on returning to her mother's room not more than twenty minutes afterwards could not find her. She went Into the garden to look for her mother aud when she ap proached the cistern she noticed that a plank had been removed. Looking down into the cistern sho saw the cold, white face of her mother looking up at her. Death had already set its seal up on her brow. As soon as possible the grief-stricken woman summoned assistance and the inanimate body was raised from the cistern. PLENTY AND YET NOT ENOUGH.— Tho officer of tho law who exercises his authority in preserving order and decorum with discretion and impartial ity is a personage that cannot bo es teemed too highly in a community. Existing laws, be they state or local, must be observed and enforced and in view of this the arrest of a certain young man, who on the morning of last Fourth of July violated that sec tion of the boro' ordinances which pro hibits the discharge of iiro ci ackers up on our streets, met with the full ap proval of all law -abiding citizens. This timely action of our high consta ble nipped the evil In the bud and put a stop to thc*nui3auce at least during •lay time. Hut, as in many other cases, there is a dark side to this thing of being a po lice officer. Ilis activity should not be confined to broad daylight and quiet streets, but should continue aud in crease in the hours of night and in crowded public places. It is then and there that the keen and piercing eye of a vigilant policeman is needed most, when boisterous and disorderly crowds should be dispersed and unruly charac ters dealt with iu a stern and fearless manner, and without distinction as to standing or family connections. Now on the evening of the Fourth we notic ed an ui common amount of rowdyism and profanity, especially in the vicinity of the rink on Penn street, where the M. E. Mite Society were holding their festival. Several drunken "roughs" filled tho air with hideous language and heavy oaths and amused themselves by throwing burning firecrackers at pass ers-by. Hut, strange to say, our high constable who bad begun the day so well in attending to the duties of his office, made himself only conspicuous by his persistent absence and the swag gerers had all the elbow room they wanted. We,aud many others,thought there was a decided lack of police and while there was plenty of it iu the fore noon, there was not near enough in the evening. We do not want to censure nor dictate, but the marked difference between the general behavior in the day time and that In the eyeuing do seryes at least a comment. OBITUARY.— It is with sadness that we record the death of Mrs. Clara Ul rich, eldest daughter of Major J. B. Fisher, of Penn Hall. She peacefully fell asleep on the evening of July Ist, having arrived at the age of 30 years. 10 months and 13 days. On the 2Sth of April, 1885, site stood in bridal array by the side of her affianced husband and, with the prospect of a happy life in wedlock, cast in her lot with his. Kind-hearted and noble-minded, she was fitted to be a helpmeet indeed. The house which was to be their home, and in which they were to share each others joys,was already furnished when sickness set in and terminated in her death. She was never permitted to occupy it. Mrs. Ulrich was a member of the Reformed church and a truly christian lady. Baptized in her infancy by ltev. M, A. Smith, and growing up in a Christian family and in the bosom of the church, and finally confirmed by Rey. C. H. Reiter, she never knew a time when she was not a Christian and did not serve her Master. In all her life time she was a devoted Christian and grew to be very active and useful io ber church. Though modest and re tired in her life she did not shrink from duty. She was a faithful teacher in the Sunday school. Skillful in the art of music she, for a number of years, served the Sunday-school and congre gat ion in the capacity of organist. In her sickuess which continued nearly a month, she was peaceful and resign ed to the will of her Heavenly Father. The daily study of her Bible, hymn book and catechism as well as faithful ness in her private pinyer, had prepar ed her to be so. Out of the abundance of her heart, accordingly, she praised her God and sweetly sang "Rock of Ages" and "Jesus loyer of my soul," and discoursed freely on faith and the practical duties of Christian life ; and when she had ended, calmly folding her hands on her breast, she exclaimed. "Now lam ready to die." The hour of this spiritual transportation will ever be remembered by those who were present. She died in the triumphs of faith. On the following day her in fant d aughter was baptized and named Lola Miriam, a name of her own selec tion. Her remains were interred at Salem's church on the 4th inst. on which occasion her pastor preached on Romans 8 : 18 to a crowded house and was assisted by Rev's. D. M. Wolf and J, M, Eyans, * W. Wolf, of Fiedler, Haines township, wishes to notify the farmers that he will run his steam threshing machine throughout the season in l'enns, Brush ami Sugar Valleys. Per sons wishing to eng.igo his services will receive perfect satisfaction. —Reuben Grimm, of jl/adisonburg, wishes to say that John Klinefelter of J/illheim has finished painting his house and has made a No. 1. job of it. Mc. Grimm considers Klinefelter the best paiuter in the state, who is hard to beat on graining, and whoso prices are very reasonable. Henry J/iller, bis assistant, is alsu an excellent painter, but will fall off the scafT >lds some times. Mc. Grimm cheerfully recom mends Khnfelter to any parties who may iiave soino painting to do.

Alas for Millheim's freedom! While other towns, among iliem Bellefonte, celebrate Inde pendence day in a becoming manner, with no end f shooting fire crackers, balooti ascensions and fire works, poor little Mlilheiin is crushed by a lot of over-offlcious ofllcers and the boys must pen up all their natural patriotism, or else go out of town and keep the Fourth of July at a safe distance. So much for borough laws. JIM no. COBURN. There being no edition last week gave the ed itoi and correspondents c brief rest. The festival held here by the Mite Society of the Lutheran congregation was well patronized and quite a nice sum realized. Thethrcc cakes voted for between the three ministers were taken as follows: First choice, ftev. Deitzler, second choice, Rev. Ycarick aud third Rev. Swengle. The Millheim band kindly came here and livened things up with some of their flue music on Friday evening. On Saturday even ing quite an interest was taken in the cake walk which was en jo. Ed by all present. The ladies of the society return their thanks to all who done so wetl iu making the festival a sue. cess, and assure thein that the money realized will l>e put to eood use.

He Is starting for li s home in the West some day next week, but is leaving his wife and daughter here in the mountains all summer on account of their poor health.

Meyer is nursing a sprained limb, caused by a fall, and Mrs. Linn Zelgler, living with Mrs. Sarah Shaffer, Is confined t" her bed suffering with a complication of discuses,known only to herself and her physician.

The JofUNAL Devils dropped in to see us last week, of course, it was an off-duty week for the boys. We had quite an Interesting conver sation with the "Junior in Typo,'' on the art of printing and other subjects.
