THINGS ABOUT TOWN & COUNTY-
——Mrs. John Lanner, of Bush Hol-
low, is proud of having raised a seven
pound turnip this season.
—— Cases of typhoid fever are reported
to be numerous at Eagleville, some of
them having proved fatal.
——The game of base ball at Renovo
on Saturday afternoon between the Phila-
delphia railroad clerks’ club and
the Renovo club was won by the former.
The Philadelphians had better luck
than they met with in Bellefonte.
Charles Noll, the young man of
this place who received such severe in-
juries last week by the breaking of a
telephone pole on which hz was working
at Lock Haven, is rapidly recovering and
will soon be able to be about again.
——L. D. Owens, of Logan, Mifllin co.,
saw his brother Samuel carried off
the battle field wounded during the late
war, and from that time until last week
he knew not whether Samucl was dead
or alive, when the long-lost brother pre-
sented himself for recognition.
——1It is estimated that 1,000 people at-
tended the band festival at Mill Hall on
Saturday night. There were three
bands present from a dis‘ance, viz. Me-
chanics, of Salona, the Rote and the Ea-
gleville. The receipts of the evening
were something over $150, $100 of
which was clear.
——Mrs. Stott, wife of Albert Stott, of
this place, whose death occurred last
week at Crescent, Lycoming County,
where she was visiting relatives, was
buried in Mound Cemetery, Williams-
port. Her husband and three children
survive her, the youngest child being
only four months old. She had been ill
about two weeks,
——The Lock Haven Democrat says
that among the bricklayers in the em-
- ploy of contractor Paup at the new
State Normal school building is Wil-
liam Wolf, of Bellefonte, one of the best
workmen in the State, who makes his
four dollars a day easy. Mr. Wolf has
been there about three weeks and was
eXpecting his family to spend Sunday
with him.
Mr. Oliver Wolfe, a lumberman
well known in the neighborhood of Lock
Haven, who has a fancy for fine stock,
last week purchased a fine French coach
horse from James C. Leggett, represent-
ing E. Benn tt& Son, of Topeka, Kan.
Mr. Wolfe paid $3,500 for the animal,
which is 16} hands high and weighs be-
tween 1400 and 1500 pounds. He wants
to introduce this stock into this section.
——One evening recently William M.
Allison, editor of the Mifflintown Her-
ald, was assaulted with a cane by a law-
yer named Burchfield, while walking
along a street of that town. The diffi-
culty arose over an article in the Herald
insinuating that Burchfield was the de-
steoyer of girlish innocence and thatjihe
was guilty of such conduct as should de-
barhim from the profession. Allison
was severely cut about the face.
——Preparations are already in prog-
ress for another Star course of entertain-
ments in this place next winter. In-
stead of one concert company there will
be two—The Irish National sConcert
Company and the Harvard Quintette,
assisted by a distinguished elocationist.
Then there will probably be six enter-
tainments instead of five. Tn that case
the price of tickets will be slightly high-
er than last season. The complete list
of the entertainments will be announ-
ced in due time.
——The Treasurer of the flood fund
at Lock Haven, Mr. R. I. Fleming, in-
formed the Democrat that he would be-
Zin to pay out the relief money pro rata
about Wednesday or Thursday of this
week. He thinks the committee will
decide to pay by wards, beainning with
the First Ward. There are about $30-
000 to distribute. the most needy of
course to get the most money. The
committee and the treasurer are anxious
to satisfactorily place the money so that
the sufferers can get it.
A few days ago Mr. W. H.
Peters, representing the Woolson Spice
Co. of Toledo, Ohio, left at {this office a
package of their “Lion” brand of coffee,
with the request that it be tésted [and if
not found to be a superior article that
we should say so. We have tried it
thoroughly, in fact so thoroughly that
there are but few grains of it left, and are
read 7 to report that it is by far the best
ready preparedieoffoe we have ever tast-
ed. It is mixture of Java, Mocha and
Rio, in such proportions as to make a
richly flavored and most delicious
drink. Iv is roasted in its natural
state without mixture of any kind
and we honestly believe it to be the
purest, best and most palatable coffee
on the market.

CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA EXPOSITION.
—Ratlroad and tent arrangements have
been completed for the monster Picnic-
Hxhibition to take place in Colonel Tay-
lor’s Fort Woods, at Centre Hall, Sep-
tember 17 to 20 inclusive. Access by
rail will be convenient from all direc-
tions and sufficient trains will be placed
on the several roads reaching the place
to make going and coming very conve-
nient. Hon. Leonard Rhone, chairman
of the association, informs the writer
that up to this time the applications for
ter.t and exhibition privileges are far in
excess of what they were last year.
The list of speakers comprises such
men as Col. Bingham, of Ohio, Master
of the National Grange, P. of H.; Gov-
ernor James A. Beaver; Hon. Mortimer
Whitehead, of New Jersey, Lecturer of
the National Grange ; Brigadier Gener-
al D. H. Hastings ; Senator Brown, of
York county, Lecturer of the State
Grange; General B. F. Fisher, of Ches-
ter county, and others.
As one of the attractions, outside of the
general discussion of Grange topics and
display of machinery and agricultural
impliments, C. K. Sober, the champion
wing sho’ of America, has consented to
give exhibitions ot his wonderful marks-
manship, at stated intervals during the
week.
Seven trains will run each day over
the Lewisburg and Tyrone railroad
from Centre Hall to Montandon, con-
necting with trains on the P. & E. road
and also to Bellefonte, with trains on
the Bald Eagle Valley road.
This picnic-exbibition will, without a
doubt, be one of the largest and most
successfal affairs ever held in Centre
county or Central Pennsylvama, and
will be attended by thousands upon
thousands of people from all over this
and adjoining states.
A RATHER SMALL TRICK .—A great
many people out in Curtin township
are completely disgusted with the re-
cent acts of a loud-mouthed, pretentious
Republican of that locality. A corres-
pondent writes us about the matter as
follows : “Some years azo the citizens
residing in the upper end of Curtin town-
ship purchased a corner of a field from
Harrison Long in which to bury their
dead. The ground needed fencing and
the management of the Knoll Sunday
School decided to hold a picnic during
the day and a festival at night, the pro-
ceeds to go towards defraying the ex-
penses of enclosing the graveyard.
This they did on Saturday, Aug. 24th,
without opposition, except from a prom-
inent Republican School director, who
set up a peanut stand in, as he said, Ais
school yard, to sell cider and cigars
without license. The people didn't pat-
ronize him much. He pocketed all
the proceeds, not even dropping a penny
into the collection basket or paying a
nickel towards the expense of the band.
Out there now there are many good peo-
ple who believe there is one man
among them mean enough to rob a
graveyard in an indirect way.
A Brute Ar LarcE.—Under this
head the Williamsport Sun and Banner
says: ‘“Lhursday afternoon a woman
living in the Eighth ward got her chil-
dren ready to go to the picnic at Union
Park. One of her daughters is a schol-
arin the St. Bonafacius Parochial School
When all were ready the woman sent
two of her daughters, aged about seven
and eight, after the girl who was at the
school. To reach the school the little
girls had to pass through the ally be-
tween Franklin and Penn streets.
While in this ally, at three o’clock in
the afternoon, in a thickly settied part
of the city, the girls were met by a
fiend in human shape who attempted
an assault upon the children. He fail-
ed to accomphsh his purpose and the
frightened children returned to their
home and told their mother of the affair.
The little girls are intelligent and de-
scribed the foul scoundrel as a stout
man with black whiskers. If the vil-
lain can be identfied he should re-
ceive the severest punishment that can
be meted out to him.’
The LEGAL ProFEsstoN.—We hope it
may never h.ve to be written
of the Centre County bar what
the Sunday Zranscript {eels called upon
to say of the Philadelphia bar,as follows:
“Iu is gratifying to hear that the reputa-
ble members of the bar are considering
the propriety of calling a bar meeting to
discuss the scotching of the shyster and
the strangling of the infamous contin-
gent fee disgrace. This would be a
move in the right direction. The bar of
Philadelphia was at one time without a
stain, but now it is smeared and smirch-
ed from one end of the roll of member-
ship to the other by a lot of scurvy
knaves who grub for dollars in filth and
muck without regard to the pride and
honor of the true lawyers at the bar or
the lustre that once was shed by the gen-
tlemen who so long and so ably upheld
its fame and glory. Embracery has
been substituted for argum:nt, perjury
has supplanted fact, that corporations
may be blackmailed and individuals
plundered.
——The new steam brick machine at
the Lock Haven fire brick works has a
capacity of 250,000 « day.
EEE EERE,
—The ladies of the Bellefonte Metho-
dist Church had one’ of their pleasant
lawn parties at the residence of Rev. W.
A. Houck, on Linn Street, Thursday
evening of last week. The series of en-
tertainments for the benefit of the church
has been very successful.
—The house of John Courtney, in
Reed's Gap, Woodward township, Clin-
ton County, was destroyed by fire, with
all its contents, at about 4 o'clock last
Friday morning. He was away at the
time and Mrs. Courtney being awaken-
ed by the fire gave the alarm, and seme
of the neighbors came tothe rescue, but
it was too late.
——Mrs. 8. Graham, wifeof A. Gra-
ham, of Eagleville, who died cn Friday
last, was buried on Sunday afternoon
at that place, the funeral procession be-
ing one of the largest ever seen in that
section. Mr. Graham being a member
of the P. O. S. of A., the two camps of
that order in Lock Haven attend the de-
ceased lady’s obsequies in a body, and
camip 316, of Eagleville, alse turned
out on the sad occasion, thus testifying
their respect and regard for their much
bereaved member.
——Al Graham, of Hecla Gap, Centre
county, told the local editor of the Clear-
field Republican the other day how he
managed to get his logs to the mill on a
double quick, thus: He has two miles
of railroad built on which h3 runs the
trucks that haul the logs to the mill.
The trucks are taken up the grade into
the woods by means of horses, where
they are loaded, the brakes are opened
and then let go for the mill. By the
gradual down grade the cars reach the
mill in short order, making the two
miles in less than seven minutes. This
kind of hauling beats an ox team all to
pieces.
At therecent meeting of the Bap-
tist Association at Philipsburg the fol-
lowing were delegates and visitors from
Centre county : Bellefonte, Miss Mary
Adams, Miss Ella Haupt, Bald Eagle,
J. W. Stuart and wife, G. R. Williams
and wife, J. P. Williams and wife, J. Q.

——The second annual reunion of the
Knights of the Golden Eagle, Susque-
hanna district, composed of castles in
the counties of Centre, Lycoming, Un-
ion, Northumberland, Montour and
Dauphin, at Lewisburg on Monday, was
a great success in every respect. J.D.
Barnes, of Philadelphia, grand master of
records, and other prominent officials of
the order, were present. At 11.30 a
meeting of representatives was held in
the hall of Buffalo castle, and routine
business was transacted. At 1 o'clock
a parade took place, participated in by
over one thousand knights accompanied
by bands and drum corps. At 2.30 a
public meeting was held in Music hall,
at which addresses were delivered by
members of the Eagles. The next re-
union will take place at Williamsport.
——DMany of the citizens of Bellefonte
and other parts of Centre County re-
member Dr. ». D. Wingate who was a
practicing dentist in these parts and
who subsequently moved to Carbondale.
They will regret to hear of his recent
sudden death in the latter place, he hav-
ing been found dead ir a chair at his
residence. The Carbondale paper in
which are the particulars, says that a-
bout midnight his daughter heard him
go down stairs from his bedroom, but
thought nothing of it, as he frequently
did this. He was an early riser and it
was not an uncommon thing for him to
rise before the break of day. In the
morning at a quarter of seven he was
called to his breakfast, but there was no
response. His hat was hanging on the
rack in the hallway and so it was known
that he had not gone out and Ms.
Wingate looked for him in the different
rooms. The door of his private office
was closed, and thinking that the Doc-
tor was not there she looked in all of the
other rooms upstairs and down before en-
tering that. When she did open the door
finally a ghastly sight confronted her.
In a favorite rocking chair by his desk
sat the body of Dr. Wingate cold and
stiff. His feet were wrapped in a heavy
coat. In his death his head had been
thrown backward and the body straight-
ened out. Mrs. Wingate knew without
a second glance that the body was life-
less. On the desk beside him was a part
ofa graham cracker. The rest he had
eaten and on his lips were some of the
crumbs. From this it is thought his
death was very sudden and occurred
shortly after he came down stairs. Dus.
Wheeler and Bailey agreed in the opin-
ion that he had been dead several hours,
and attributed his sudden demise to
! heart failure

Report oF THE GRAND JURY—TD
the Honorable the Judges of Quarter
Sessions of the Peace in and Jor the
County of Centre, August Sessions, 1889.
—The Grand Inquest of the Common-
wealth of Pennsylvania, inquiring for
theJcounty of Centre, in all matters
relating to the same, do respectfully
report :
That they have acted upon eighteen
(18) bills of indictment of which fifteen
(15) were found True Bills; three were
found not true Bills.
We beg leave further to report :
That we have visited and inspected the
County buildings and find the cells in
the prison in cleanly condition + repairs
are needed in cells Nos. 5 and 8. The
cellar under the Sheriff's residence
should be rid of large ash piles and
other rubbish in same. The Grand
Jury also find in the cellar under the
east end of the jail a pond of water
caused by a leak in the water pipes,
which is injurious to the timbers and
floors overhead besides tending to ren-
der the building unhealthy.
We further report that in the jail
yard we find the following objects,
which should be immediately removed
as any of them will facilitate the escape
of prisoners, affording convenience for
scaling the wall:
1. The locust tree growing close to
the wall at the east end of same, and
which Irs attained a heighth already
equal to the wall. 2. The iron rods
and poles found in the yard. 3. The
clothes lines used in the yard should
not be allowed to remain there at night
and only when used for drying
clothes. 4. The shed roof at the west
end of the yard on north side of wall ex-
tending half way up the wall, affords a
ready means of escape over same.
The Grand Jury also advises the im-
mediate removal of small piles of rub-
bish in the prisonyard, and a replaster
ing of such parts of the wall from which

——The ladies of the Bellefonte
Methodist church had one of their
pleasent parties at the residence of Rev.
‘W. A. Hauck, on Linn street, Thurs-
day evening of last week. The series of
entertainment for the benefit of the
chuch have been very successful.
-—The visit of Bishop Rulison to the
Bellefonte Episcopal Church on Tues-
day evening wasa very interesting oc-
currence to the members of the church
and attracted a large congregation. The
number admitted to the church by con-
firmation was fifteen, being a larger class
than has at any one time been confirmed
in this place in many years. After the
service the Bishop had a reception at
the rectory where many members of the
church and others paid their respects to
him.
Gum chewing Bellefonte girls
should take warning from a dispatch
from Washington which states thata
charming belle of Washington has been
compelled to abjure the delights of so-
ciety and go in retirement on account of
an abnormal. enlargement of her jaw,
caused entirely by persistent and exces-
sive mastication of the fascinating tut
dangerous gum. Young ladies who do
not desire to have too'much jaw should
take heed and govern themselves ac-
cordingly.
—Some days ago a singular case of in-
sanity was developed at Logan Mills,
Clinton County. Joseph Shrickengast,
having become insane, was seized with a
wild frenzy. He ran around frothing
likea mad dog and roared like a bull.
Going from one house to another he rid-
dled the windows with stones and broke
He was armed with clubs
and made free use of them, when the
neighbors interfered. In his raving
madness he attacked John Greninger
and broke one of his ribs, knocked John
Ewing down, bit and scratched Valen-
the coating has dropped away more es- | tine Breon, clubbed Forest Worth and
pecially around the entire top portion of | kicked several others. He was finally
the jail wall, in order that the balance
be protected against the action of the
elements.
In the Court House, the Grand Jury
recommend an addition of cases, with
suitabls shelving, in the vaults of the
Commissioness’ and Prothonotary ’s
office for the safe keeping of important
papers which are accumulating and can-
not be filed for convenient reference for
want of cases and shelving.
The Grand Jury room should be sup-
plied with a water tank, and we urgent-
ly recommend the construction of a pas-
sage from said roow, leading directly
to the water closets. Valuable time is
lost and the sessions of Court are con-
tinually disturbed by the going to and
fro for want of proper accommodations
in these two respects.
Decency requires animmediate remov- |
| Hope, No. 260, Brisbin; Umbria, No,
al and radical change irjthe urinals and
privy vaults in the rear of the Court
House. Any change in these should be
coupled with a sewer leading to Spring
Creek. The break in the wall on the
south side of Court House should be ve-
paired. The Grand Jury beg leave to
remind the Commissioners that the yard
in front of the Court House is in a shab-
by condition, and is being used asa
play ground, disfigured by pitching
quoits; and we are also informed that
the Court House has been granted for
holding of exhibitions, band meetings,
ete., which we discontenance, as this is
a misuse of the public buildings.
‘We respectfully tender our thanks to
the Honorable® Judges and District At-
torney for their courtesy and assistance
rendered us during our deliberations,
and congratulate the.Court for the
prompt dispatch of business at this term.

Cost More Deap THAN ALIVE. —
Jerome Bricker had an old white horse
which he offered to sell to Jonathan
Shatfer for a dollar, which offer Mr.
Shatfer accepted. Bricker then offered
to bet Shaffer a dollar that he (Shaffer)
would back out. This bet was likewise
accepted by Mr. Shaffer. Mr. Bricker
then delivered the horse at the stable of
Mr. Shaffer, and in a short time, say
about an hour afterwards, the horse
dropped down and died. Thus the
horse did not cost Shafter anything. He
purcuased him for a dollar, but won a
dollar from the seller of the animal,
But the horse being dead, is iikely to
cost him considerable, as he will likely
have to pay four or five dollars to have
him hauled away. There is now a ques-
tion as to which of the two men will
have to pay the funeral expenses.— Lock

A SACRILEGIOUS RascAL.—The la-
test fraud is found where you would
least expect 1t--in the Silent City of the
Dead. A man is traveling about the
country soliciting orders for cleaning up
grave stones in the cemeteries that have
become discolored with dirt or mildew.
He does the work easily with diluted
acid, but the polished surface of marble
headstones is ruined by the acid. Look
out for him. Granite monuments might
not be injured, but the use of nitric or
sulphuric acid on marble ought not be
tolerated for a moment.

DEpicarioNn or THE ST. JOHN'S
Cationic CHURCH.—The new Cath-
olic church of this place, which is now
approaching completion, will be dedi-
cated on the 13th of October with all the
solemn and imposing ceremonies pecu-
liar to the Catholic ritual. The dedica-
tion will take place before the handsome
structure is completed, but it will be suf-
ficiently advanced for the purpose.
Those who visit the church in its pre-
sent condition can form an idea of the
spendid appearance it will present when
finished. Both externally and inter-
nally it will belone of the finest church
edifices in central Pennsylvania. Al-
though about five years have already
been consumed in its constraction, its
building has been conducted entirely on
cash principles, Father McArdle being
careful not to have anything done with-
out the cash being ready to pay for it.
For the laudable purpose of raising the
money yet needed for its completion an
admission of $1 will be charged those
who may attend the ceremonies of dedi-
cation, and as the attendance is likely
to be large, a considerable sum will be
raised in this way. Some of the leading
dignitaries of the diocese will take part
in the services.

BeLLeroNTE BALL Pravers Vie-
TORIOUS AT ALT00NA.—The game on
Monday afternoon at Altoona between
the Young Men's Christian Associat’on
team of Bellefonte and the Altoona
Young Men's Christian Association club,
was one of the most interesting and ex-
citing of the season. From start to fin-
ish it was anybody’s game and no one
was sure of it till the the last man had
been retired. The pitching was fine on
both sides.
The game opened with MeTntosh at
the bat but that side was easily retired.
For Bellefonte McLean opened but went
out from B. Woodcock to Hart. Iarp-
ster hit safely but was caught off first’
Lee Woodcock hit safely, stole second
and came home on Musser’s twe baguer.
Houck was hit, Musser stole third, Hun-
ter singled, Musser crossing the plate on
the hit, and Houck moving up a bag.
Quigley struck out leaving Houck and
Hunter on third and second respectively.
Score, Altoona 0, Bellefonte 2.
In the second Moore and Hicks were
given bases on balls and scored on wild
pitches and passed balls. Kinch and
Davis fanned the air three times and B.
Woodcock’s pretty fly was taken care of
by Frank Musser. Bellefonte went out
in order.
In the third Lee Woodcock’s sore fin-
ger began to pain him severely and he
voluntarily gave way to Ellenberger
and went to centre field. Harpster went
to first and McLean behind the bat.
Three hits and a base on balls netted Al-
toona two runs. This ended the scoring
for the home team. Bellefonte was
blanked in the third.
In the fourth Ellenberger made Jthe
circuit on his base on balls, Cassidy's
and McLean’s hit and a fumble by
Kinch.
No more runs were made until the
eighth, when hits by Quigley, McLean
and Woodcock, a base on balls and some
nicely bunched errors, scored three runs
for Bellefonte and won the game.
