ly turned about the head by the hot
brick falling upon him. lie was lying

near the kiln, at the time, asleep, and
entirely unconscious of impending dan
ger. Ilis wouuds were dressed and we

after the shows,at least illookedjso Mon

tions after office were in town on that

Spangler, Esq., of Bellefonte, candi
date for Congress. Another was Mr.
Aaron Williams, whose card, stating
his case, appears in the first column of
our second page and who, if nominated
will draw the solid vote of the county's
democracy for prothonotary.
—Last week's Clinton Democrat con
tains the following item :
From Mr. Walker.
S. E. Walker, of Nittany Valley, and
husband of the lady who died from the
effects of injuries inflicted by a bull
tramping her, writes and says the pub
lished reports of the terrible affair were
misstated in some particulars. Mr.
Walker's version is, substantially, the
bull did not chase the woman, but,
hearing her coming behind him, and
being blind of one eye,was startled and
turiud quickly, knocking Mrs. Walker
down. It was then that the animal
pawed her, inflicting the injuries which
proved fatal. 11(3 says that the bull
was not a cross or vicious animal but
as docile as a cow. Mrs. Walker died
peacefully and her death is much re
gretted by all who knew her.
[Centre county papers please copy. [
This, of course, vindicates the bull,
but it does not change the sad result a
particle.
—Main's Circus, which had been ex
hibiting at Rebersburer, last Saturday
evening, and was well attended there,
came to this town on Sunday morning
and took possession of the grounds,

Our people residing in that neighbor
hood all agree in the opinion that the
show people conducted themselves very
quietly and decorously during their
stay. On Monday morning the big
canvass tent was erected and very
soon a crowd gathered to await the
events of the day. At noon the town
was fairly filled with people, and the
free exhibition and parade was witness
ed by nearly everybody that could be
on hand. Both the afternoon and
eyening exhibitions were taken in by
large crowds of people and most of
them pronounced the' performances
very good and fully worth the low price
of admission.

last Monday, when we had a pleasant
talk with the gentleman, during which
he remarked that lie is in need of a good
rest, and not being able to find it at
the watering places and larger summer
resorts, lie chose the quiet town of
Aaronsburg, where the surrounding
mountains and hills shut out the busy
and restless world. Col. Norris is a
very sociable gentleman and a free con
versationist. Upon his arrival at
Aaronsburg last Saturday lie was ser
enaded by our band in the evening, but
feeling indisposed could not leave bis
room and the boys returned somewhat
disappointed.

—Last week's Sunbury Democrat
came out with a newspaper cut repre
senting Rev. S. G. Shannon, tlie Luth
eran pastor of that city. Right under
the picture it publishes a short biogra
phy, winding up with the following
eulogistic sentences :
Mr. Shannon is a preacher of great
force and a splendid pastor. He is
also very popular with all our citi
zens without regard to denomina
tion. The great work of building a
new church has been inaugurated un
der his pastorate, and if energy and
push amounts to anything it will soon
be built. A pleasant man in social in
tercourse, loved by his people, and re
spected by the entire community, no
man stands higher in Sunbury than
Rey S. G. Shannon.
As Rev. Shannou is known by near
ly all our readers, and many of them
are his personal friends,the above para
graph will be read with interest and
pleasure and they will readily join
the writer in his wishing the gentle
man "Godspeed," in his high and re
sponsible calliDg.
AN OKNAMKNT.—II there is one
thing thiil speaks well for a town it is
si well-re jnlatod cemetery .covered with
lino tombstones, which give evidence
that the community pays duo respect
to the memory of departed fiionds.
Fairview cemetery was adorned last
week with another very attractive mon
ument, which marks the last resting
place of some of the members of B. ().
IVininger's.family.
This family monument is composed
of four pieces of different, marble of the
following dimensions : Base, Suther

piece of work and the purchaser as well
as the manufacturers may justly feel
proud of it. It is without a question
the linest monument ever erected by
our marble men.

The rain last week brought a number
of fishermen here to spend the night

Candidates arc now almost as thick

Mr. W. W. Kremer, of Emporia,
Kansas, after spending several weeks
in our village haves for his western
home to-uiorrow, Tuesday forenoon,
leaving his wife and daughter here to
spend the summer.
We noticed a communication in the
Keystone Gazette, of Bellefonte, writ
ten by the Millheim correspondent,
which i elects on our generosity and is a
slur on our village. There is not much
use in saying anything in reply to such
a tlimsy item. It is true, as we are in
foimed. the promoters of the festival
did ask the Millheim citizens for aid,
which was generously given, as it
should have been, as Millheim has fro
quently called on our cit'zens for aid in
getting up festivals. As for treating
the Mi llheim Comet Band to two dish
es of cream in the dusty road, is saying
what is not true as the band weie ask
ed to come here and liven things up
with some music and they kindly con-
Muled to come and we Know that they
were to be well treated and think they
were. This was tlie second visit of the
hand to our village in a short time and
we think they were well taken care of
both times and do not think the writer
of the article was a member of the
band. How is it, Mr. Editor, you
were with the baud botli times whoa
here, what do you think of their treat
ment ? We would not be sui prised if
the crank who wrote the item was one
of the smart chaps wha were here at
tending the fostival and eat themselves
chwck fullof c ike and Ice cream and
then quietly slid out and left without
paying for it. VALE.
Dear Vale, don't talk, it isn't worth
while to spend the wind over all that is
in the item or in the writer of the
same. If anybody is slured at all it is
correspondent in the Gazette.- JSd.

List Friday J. 11. liibby, one of our
accomodating landlords took some of
his guests to the mountains, south of
this place in atpiing wagon to show
them the hue scanery and also to gath-'
er huckleberries. After they had ar
rived there lie hitched his ponies to a
tree and piloted liis friends through
the woods, leaving the ponies at their
place. When he returned he was sur
prised to see that one of the ponies had
torn the rope and was gone. He made
a diligent search at once which he con
tinued the next day but the lost could
not be found. He lias been on a hunt
up to this waiting (Tuesday) but with
no success. It is feared that some one
stole the animal and had cut the rope
to leave the impression that the pony
had torn loose and ran away.
On Monday morning as the colored
porter, who drives the hack from and
to the depot for the Sbafer House, was
turning his team at the depot, a small
dog frightened the horses and a broken
axle was the result of it. Dut no one
was hurt.
The band festival on Saturday was a
grand success. The Logan Ilose Com
pany from Bellefonle was here in full
uniform. The Zion band furnished
the music which was excellent and
shows that the members of that baud

cal talent. The candidates for various
oflices were on the ground looking up
