the gifts that changed hands.
Irrespective of denominations our entire com-
munity was shocked beyond expression at the
news of the untimely death of Miss Bessie, the
only daughter of Rev. George Elliott. The
deepest sympathy is everywhere being mani
fasted.
Our enterprising yonng democratic friend,
M. L. Smith, after spending the holidays with
his parents at this place, took his leave for a

In all the churches Christmas was most ap-
propriately observed and many were the young
hearts that beat with joy at the festivities as
dealt out to them by kind hands. With the
Y
‘exception of the decoration in the shape of a
christmas tree in the Lutheran church, the
exercises were alike, consisting of essays and
declamations by the scholars, and the pastors
Revs. Young snd Aikens,each delivered an ap-
propriate address.
Mr. Mordecai Dannley, one of the old Buck
eve State's great big agricultural men, made a
brief holiday visit to his father, G. D. Dannley
and a host of old acquaintances who scarcely
recognized him after an absence of some years,
his short clipped beard and hair being thickly
sprinkled with silver gray. Mord, the name
he is best known by, says the Warcnyan is a
welcome guest at his home near Seville, Medi-
na county, Ohio, and that Foraker has surren-
dered the battle flags for good.
On accountof death in Rev. Elliott's family
he was unable to attend. Superintendent J.
B. Mitchell conducied the exercises in the
Presbyterian church, and in a brief address re-
minded the scholars of the fleetness of time
and that in the last year the reaper death had
not visited his school. After the distribution
of candies and nuts, Dr. George H. Woods, in a
well worded brief speech presented the organ-
ist, Miss Mary Smith, with a well filled purse.
He then very appropriately presented Super-
intendent J. B. Mitchell with an elegant cake,
the production of Mrs. J. B. Ard, in response
to which Mr. Mitchell urged the steady attend-
ance, of all the scholars and gave a general in-
vitation to everybody. Thus closed the fes-
tivities of the Christmas of 1889.

What a Centre County Farmer Sees in
Boston.
No. 5.
Editor of the WarcHyaN : .
I asked a lady who has lived in Boston sev-
enteen years, whose husband died while doing
work as a city missionary, and.who has had
good opportunities for observing the religious
condition of the city, one of whose sons is busi-
ness manager of the Youth's Companion, the
best paper for the youth in the United States,
and another of whose sons is musical eritic for
the Boston Traveler, the best authority on mat-
ters of art in Boston—I asked this lady what
Boston was religiously. She said “Unitarian.”
I find that in the early part of this century
nearly all the congregational churches went
over to the Unitarians, so that the old families
who should be and are the leaders in social
life are nearly all Unitarian. Then Unitarian
Harvard has done her part in furnishing law-
vers, doctors, educated business men and
teachers, of the Unitarian faith. William El-
lery Channing's spirit still lingers and has
an influence with the people of Boston. But
this Unitarianism is of all shades, ranging
from Savage, the defender of Ingersoll, through
the‘philanthropic Edward Everett Hale up to
the evangelical and foreign mission advocate,
Brook Herford.
Notwithstanding so many of the congrega-
tionalists went over to Unitarianism they are
still very strong as a denomination in Boston.
All the New England young men and young
women from the towns and farms, who have
been drawn to Boston, have clung to their old
congregational faith.
The Episcopalians,led by Philips Brooks,are
perhaps third in strength among the denomina-
tions. The Baptists come fourth and the
Methodists and Presbyterians comejin fifth and
sixth respectively. The Presbyterians have
felt no call to enter New England since the
congregationalists hold practically the same
theological views. The Methodists have had
hard work to win adherents to their standard
from among the conservative, rigid, proper
New Englanders. But here in Boston the
small missions started in the suburbs fifteen
or twenty years ago are growing into thriving
churches. Then, Boston University with over
a thousand students in its various departments
under the auspices of the Methodist church, is
doing much to make methodism felt in the
city.
But every faith or creed that was ever dream-
ed of finds adherents here in Boston, from the
salvation army to the followers of Tom Paine.
All are organized, have their prominent lead-
ers and official organs for the purpcse of propa-
gating their faiths. Boston is the place where
ideas are hatched. The people have the cour-
age of their convictions. They embody these
ideas in books and buildings and statues.
Mormonism is about the onlyism [ know of
that has nov some loyal adherents in Boston.
Spiritualism has a fine stone temple with ser-
vices reguiarly. Tom Paice’s followers have
a hall they call Paine hall where addresses are
given every Sunday. The Anarchists hold an
indignationgmeeting on the anniversary of the
hanging of their leaders at Chicago, and the
followers of Edward Bellamy have him here
to speak to a large enthusiastic audience in
Tremont Temple. Boston is a paradise for
cranks, religious, political and philosophical.
The words of St. Paul tothe Athenians of
Greece would be equally applicable to the
Athenians of America.
I have not been here long enough nor am I
philosopher enough to warrant me in ventur-
ing an expMmation of this phenomenon. I
should say, though, it may be the result of the
peculiar temperment of the people combined
with an intense intellectual activity. Next
week I shall try to speak of the educatoinal
institutions of Boaton. B. UST.

An Obituary Tribute,
James Daniel Ardery, of Tyrone, Blair conn-
ty, died Dec. 21, 1889, aged 36 years,3 months»
15 days. Interment took place the following
Tuesday at Martha, Centre county. He work-
ed in the P. R. R. Shops of Tyrone until about
three weeks ago, when he received injuries
from which he was compelled to quit work.
He leaves a sorrowing widow and seven chil
dren to whom he was a faithful husband and
kind father. He was a son of James and Han-
nah Ardery, of Martha, who are still living,
there being a family of ten children, three hav-
ing preceded him to the other world. He was
a faithful member of the Methodist ehureh of
Tyrone; also a member of the Patriotic Sons
of America, the Junior Mechanies, and Citizens’
fire company of that place. all of whom paid
their last tribute of respect to him by follow-
ing him to the grave.
The P.S. of A. are marching slowly,
For their brother's in the bier,
And they all are paying homage,
To a fallen brother dear.
Junior Mechanics also marching in order,
Sadness on each manly brow,
For a true brothers in the coffin,
They are mourning for him now.
remen also join the concourse,
# Ana they help to lead the way,
To a true Fireman Brother,
They a loyal homage pay.
Brother rest, thy work is o'er,
Sleep the sleep that knows not breaking,
Dream of suflerings no more,
Days of trouble, nights of waking.
in the close enchanted hall,
Hands unseen thy couch are strewing,
Fairy strains of music fall,
Every sense in slumber dewing.
Dearest Brother, we all do miss thee
In this world of grief and woe,
But by God’s help we will meet thee,
On that gold enstranded shore.
Brother rest, thy work is o'er,
Dream of suffering no more,
Sleep the sleep that knows not breaking
Until the resurrection waking.

Teachers’ County Institute.
Rarort oF Tui ComMtrtes oN REsoLUTioNs.
At this the close of the 43rd Annual Session
of the Centre County Institute, we, the teach-
ers conscious of our privileges and ever de-
sirous of acknowledging our respect and grat-
itude for those whose kind offices have
brought these oportunitiesto us, and aiming
to advance our calling, do make and declare:
these several resolutions.
1. That we, profoundly grateful to God in
whosesight the lives of all have been precious
and through whose merciful kindness bless-
ings and favors without number have been
meted unto us, do ask that He will so control
our hearts that we may see and believe that
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom,” and confess that all power and
authority are of him.
2. That we return our heartiest thanks to our
corps of instructors, the principals and pro-
fessors in our several Normal Schools, whose
work in our presence, has made manifest to
us their ability as teachers and from whom
aid and encouragement for our arduous duties
bave been derived. That we are greatly in-
debted to L. W. Miller, Principal of the Phila-
School of Industrial Art and Prof. W. A. Buck
hout of the Penn’a State College, for their
scholarly addresses.
That Prof. J. P. Richey, principal of the
Philipsburg schools, whose able and sugges-
tive work has deserved and won our esteem,
is welcomed to our ranks and enrolied as one
who wiil greatly strengthen and help us.
That Mr, and Mrs. Walter Bonbright in
their respective rolls as trained elocutionists
and skillful musicians have been greatly en-
joyed and appreciated.
3. That the courtesies of the county press to
the Institute are gratefully received, and the
help and service thus rendered by these varions
papers is of great value to the interest of ed-
ucation and the cause of our common schools.
“4. That the thronging of visitors to our
county jail for no other purpose than to grati-
fy a morbid curiosity to see one who, dead to
the world by the the just retribution of the law,
is given time and opportunity to make himself
alive to God, is deserving ot our censure as
against good morals and wise government.
5. That the growing interest in our Institute
hasso swelled the attendance of teachers,
directors and friends of our common scoools,as
to require more adequte accommodations than
is afforded by our County Court House, and to
the peopie of Bellefonte a lecture hail that
will conveniently seat 1,000 people is presented
as a positive necessity.
6. That we lament the death of Dr. E. E.
Higbee, our State Superintendent of Eduea-
tion, in whom our commonwealth found an
official of excep tional scholarship, ripe judge-
ment and pure life, and that’to our chief exe-
cutive we express the desire thata man of
like attainments be sought from among the
people whose heart, alive to the interests of
the public schools, will inspire measures neces
sary toadvance them.
7. That in this the ninth year of Pro. D
M. Wolf's superintendency of the schoools of |
this county we find in the growing interest in
our institutes, in the improved personal body
of teachers, in the removal of prejudice against
and substitution of respect for our public
schools, a complete vindication of the wis-
dom of the Directors of the county in setting
aside custom and keeping in office the man to
whose personal worth and fitness for the duties
of county superintendent of schools was add-
ed the knowledge which ripe experience alone
can give. ‘With him our every interest has
been safe noth as teachers and as men and
women ; to him we could look for safe counsel
and guidance, by him our profession has been
magnified, aud for him we cherish the respect
and indeed the love which is begotten inevery
heart for a christian gentleman.
8. That in this the year of the 100th anniver-
sary of constitutional government inthe Uni-
ted States,we.a body of the teachers of the Pul-
lic Schools, looking back over a century of
the most wonderful progress made by any peo-
ple,comparing our nation in its enlightenment
and progress with the effete monarchies of
Europe, do acknowledge with gladness and
in sincerity that the corner stone of our liber-
ties is the open Bible from whose inspired
wisdom the institutions of the Christian Sab-
bat, the Christian home and the free school,
have been derived.

A Hungarian Delicacy.
Cat Stuffed with Rice Considered a
Dainty Disli§by tie Huns.
WILKESBARRE, Pa., Dec. 30.—The
Hungarians living in the village of
Throop, near Scranton, have substituted
cat flesh for beef. For some time past
the butchers in the village have been un-
able to sell the Huns meat of any kind.
An investigation showed that the for-
eigners were just as capable as ever of
patronizing the butchers if they so desir-
ed ; they were working steadily at the
mines and making fair wages, but the
Huns had found a cheaper way to get
their meat. They set traps and captur-
ed all the eats they could. Those that
they couldn’t capture they shot.
Some of the boarding-house bosses,
when they found “eat-flesh’’ was beconi-
ing popular, bought felines from small
boys, who made it their business to eapt-
ure cats for the Hungarian market Sev-
eral parties watched the Huns disposing
of the cats. The cat was first skinned,
the intestines removed and the carcass
then stuffed with rice and roasted. A
Welshman named Davis stole a cat
sandwich from a Hungarian’s pmil and
ate it. He thought it. was mutton; but
when he heard that it was cat-meat he
started after the Hun to kill aim. At
present there is a cat famine at Throop.
Some one has said : “Tt is well to
have pronounzed opinions, but it is bet-
ter not to pronounce them,’ and Horace
Greeley once remarked to a young edi-
torial writer. “Our readers don’t care a
to tell them what we know.’’ Opinions
are individual affairs, chiefly interest-
ing to those who hold them, and only
accepted by others under protest. But
facts pleasantly and intertainingly put,
are always attractive and valuable, be-
cause they enable those to whom they
are communicated to from opinions of
their own.

matic and confident, because he does not

conquer, snyhow.— Texas Siftings.
