    Pine Grove Mentions.
The rollicking students of our Pine Grove
academy are now having a six weeks vacation,
when the summer turn will commence. Jacob
Roan, A. M., is confident of a large attendance:
Mr. Milton Krebs, who has been attending
a Dental College at Baltimore, is now spend-
ing his vacation with his father,Levi Krebs, not
asserting that his best girl does not get her
share of his pleasant smiles.
The citizens of Pine Grove Mills have recent-
ly received from Mr. G. W. Lyon a clear right
and title to the spring by which our people are
supplied with pure mountain water, for which
favor many thanks are due Mr. Lyon.
A musical concert will be held at Fairbrook
next Saturday evening, the 22d inst. The en-
tertainment will consist of vocal and instru-
mental solos and duets, trios and quartettes.
New and excellent choruses, will be conduct-
ed by Prof. J. A. Weaver, one of the best drill
masters in this section of the State.
The barn at Baileyville owned by the Tyrone
Mining Company, formerly known as the Bry-
son barn, was totally destroyed by fire on
Wednesday nighl of this week. For the lust
year it was unoccupied, but Mr. Henry Elder
intended moving on the farm onthe 1st of
April, and stored away in it his farming imple-
ments, corn, feed, &ec., which were all destroy-
ed. The cause of the conflagration is not’
known.
Tomy political friends who have so kindly
made mention of my name as being among
the prospective sheriffalty timber in the com-
ing campaign,l emphatically say no. Buttothe
best of my ability I shall support the regular
nominee. I positively decline, with thanks to
my friends who have so kindly made mention
of my name for the high office of Sheriff,which
honor should be conferred on one of the old
whee! horses of the party and thereby promote
harmony and success.
Our citizens are dependirg,and probably too
much,on a Rail Road Committee, consisting of
three of our very best men, whose duty it was
to secure the right of way from Strubel’s Sta-
tion to this place, and confer with the R. R.
Company, and if possible secure the speedy
building of the road. To this end all our eiti-
zens are now directing their attention and
assisting the progress of the committee in se-
curing the right of way with a view of secur-
ing the location and terminus of the road. We
are assured that Mr. Ard will grant the right
of way ; also a site for a depot.
Owing to the large deposits of ore across the
mountain and the probability of the B.B. R. R.
being constructed across the mountain at
some point near our town, Pine Grove Mills
would be benefited thereby,as it lies in a direct
line with the Stone valley ore fields,which can
be reached by rail with a fraction less than
three miles from Strubel’s Station, and the ore
fields across the mountain could be reached
within four miles from this point, the entire
distance being less then seven miles, while
the Shingletown Gap route would require some
eleven or twelve miles of rail road. Our
village is certainly situated in and surround -
ed by agood farming community, besides hav-
ing large deposits of iron ore in the surround-
ing country.
One day last week we had the pleasure of
meeting at the St. Elmo that friend of good
fellows, Robert Hammill Boal, of Bellefonte,
who by the way has long been in the employ
of the Messrs Collins as one of their principal
engineers, if not the best. He, in his usual
good humorous way,told how inthe near future
the hills of Stone Valley would be excavated,
and in a plain story informs us of the amount
of prospecting that has been and is being done
across the mountain, and that the prospects
as yet were not at all flattering, but that a
survey to cross the mountain at some suitable
point is now in progress,from Struble’s,Statien
via Shingletown Gap across the mountains to
their new ore fields along the south base of
the third mountain, where a large area of land
has been leased, and the prospects are most
encouraging for quantities of fossil ore, as it is
traceable for some six miles. As yet the larg-
est deposit is being found on the Lightner.
track some two miles west of the old Monroe
Furnace where the vein is traceable to Wil-
sontown. The Duffs, Mytons, Smiths, Light-
ners and others have leased their lands.
On Thursday evening the 13th inst, the
large country home of Frank Bowersox was
beautifully illuminated, it being the occasion
of the marriage of his third daughter, Annie,
to Mr. Thomas Gray, son of (Geo. W. Gray, of
Fillmore. The marriage ceremony was pre-
formed by Rev J. C. Young. Miss Mary Gray,
.the groom's sister, served as bridesmaid, and
Mr. Edward Bowersox, brother of the bride,
was best man. The congratulations were most
cordial, and the warmest wishes expressed
were for the happiness of the newly married in
which the Warcuman begs to join. Miss.Annie,
now Mrs. Gray, is one of the best of young la-
dies, and is an adept in housekeeping, having
spent all her youthful days under the ever
watchful eye of one of the best of mothers. Mr.
Gray is one of our well to do farmers and is
not unlike his father, quite a popular politician
and exercises quite a controlling influence in
his section of the community. Their wed-
ding trip was not a distant one, to Half Moon
and other sections of the county, visiting im-
mediate relatives, after which they will take
up house-keeping near Fairbrook,where they
will be welcomed to the ranks of the benediets.
Dr. J. Edward Ward, with his bride, arrived
here Thursday of last week, after spending a
week of a honey moon trip to Baltimore and
the National Capital. They were driven to the
home of his parents, Mr. Joseph Ward, on
Main street, where a splendid reception await-
ed them, and a sumptuous feast was served.
The afternoon was spent in a pleasant social
way, until the Pine Grove Band, of which the
Doctor was a former member, put in an appear-
ance and discoursed some of their finest selec-
tions of musie, which brought the Doctor and
his bride into prominence, they being intro-
duced to theaudience by Rev.J. C. Young. The
Band was invited in and shared in the hospit-
alities. The Doctor and his wife took their
departure the following day for their new
home in Bellefonte, where he has quite a lu-
crative dental practice. His wife, formerly
Miss Bella Stiver, one of Penn's Valley’s most
refined and accomplished ladies, has for some
years been one of the most successful school
teachers of Stephenson county, Illinois, in
which capacity she had won many warm
friends. But their loss is the Doctor's gain.
We unite in wishing them a happy and pros-
perous life.

Mr. Rafas Evans, who lived at this place for
a short time, but who recently moved to Belle-

In the suit brought against two of our school
girls by several matried men for a report they
circulated, the prosecutors paid the costs,there
not being enough evidence to hold them for
court. It isreported that the one prosecutor
expected to realize §100 out of the case, ex-
pecting it to get into the first families of the
town and get hush money.
On Wednesday morning of this week there
started up town a monstrous Bird that stop-
pedin at the cobbler’s.> A young man who
happened to be present was upholding the
character of one of our town’s young ladies,
which It seems to delight in damaging at every
opportunity that presents itself, and having
failed to poison the young man against her,
the aforesaid Bird ejaculated that he would
“put a kink below his eye.” The WaroumaN
correspondent was informed by the young
man that the Bird did have and can have an
opportunity to fulfill the threat made. But up
to this writing It has failed to do so, and we
will here say that we think it is well for It
that it was not carried out.
Grover Cleveland’s Wooing.
Mrs. Cleveland Tells Why She
Said Yes to the ex-President’s
Fifth Proposal.
Correspondent of a New York Journal.
I am able to give some inside inform-
ation about ex-President Cleveland’s
romance. At the time of the wedding
the mouths of the President and his
wife were those of clams concerning
their love affair. None of their friends
knew much about their courtship, and
they went on the principle of the
great German proverb that ‘speech is
silver, but silence is golden.” The wed-
dimg is still gossiped about here, and the
women pronounce it a love match, while
the men invariably take the ground
that the White House had a great deal
to do with Mrs, Cleveland’s acceptance.
It seems that the men are somewhat in
the right, and the lady who recently re-
turned from a wedding trip to the Con-
tinent gives one of my friends a conver-
sation which she had with Mrs, Cleve-
land not long ago. The story, as it
comes to me, is quite spicy, and I do
not vouch that the talk is verbatim.
I giveit as I hear it. This lady said:
I met Mrs. Cleveland shortly after I
landed in New York, and one of the
first questions she asked me was to pray
tell how long I was engaged before I
was married.
“T answered her, and told her the
story of our courtship. She listened
with interest, and when I was through
I concluded that I would learn some-
thing from her in return. I asked :
“Mrs. Cleveland, I have seen a great
many stories about your marriage and
the most I have seen have been contra-
dicted by you or your friends. I have
told you my story, and now I want you
to tell me yours. How long were you
engaged to the President before you
were married ?”’
“Mrs.Cleveland laughed and blushed,
and said :
“Oh, there are the most ridiculous
stories fold about us, but honestly they
are hardly as funny as it really was.
Uncle Grover proposed to me five times
before I accapted him. First, when I
was fourteen, and I just laughed at the
idea, for’ he seemed so much older.
Then again, two years later, when I
went to college ; and a third time when
he was elected Governor of New York.
I was by no means ready to get married
and he left things go for a year, or un-
til he was nominated for the Presidency.
Then he asked me again, and I again
refused. At last he was elected, and I
promised to marry him ina year. Of
course I always liked him better than
any one else, and I always meant to
marry him some day, but I'll own tke
White House had something to do with
hurrying it up.”
For Freckles.
A young lady correspondent requests
a cure for freckles. The golden-brown
variety, that appears only in the sum-
mer, may be readily removed, but those
of a more permanent kind ae difficult
to get rid of, and many can only be
mitigated by an acid lotion and avoid-
ing extreme exposure to the sun. We
give a few simple remedies, recommend-
ed by the best authorites, and hope they
may prove of use to some girlish reader,
whe, however, may console themselves
with the fact that the distasteful brown
specks are an evidence ofa good com-
plexion. 4
Take finely-powdered nirte(saltpeter),
and apply 1t to the freckles by the fin-
ger, moistened with water and dipped in
the powder. When perfectly done and
judiciously repeated, it will often re-
move them effectively and without
trouble. An excellent freckle-lotion
may be made of two gallons of strong
soapsuds, to which are added one pint of
alcohol and a quarter of a pound of rose-
mary. Keep in a close jar, and apply
with a linen cloth. Please remember
that what will help in one case may be
quite useless in another.—American Ag-
riculturist.

‘When President Cleveland assumed
office he found the Railway Mail Ser-
vice altogether in the hands of Republi-
can appointees; and during his four
years term there were 1999 changes,
bringing the efficiency of the service to
a point never before reached. President
Harrison, though he found a large per-
centage of Republican officials in the
service, in the first four months of his
administration brought about 2484
changes. The rate of decapitation un-
der Harrison as compared with the rate
under Cleveland was as 15 to 1.
The Shah of Persia is about to
introduce railroads and electric plants
into his dominions, and has given the
contract for their building to Frank J.
Clergue, a citizen of Bar Sl Maine.
It was American contractors who first
built railroads in Russia, and the Czar is
said to have advised the Shah to depend
upon American skill and enterprise. As
the Shah has broken faith withEnglish-
men who had begun the work, he may
probably attempt the same tactics with
the new contractor ; but the Yankee
may safely be trusted to come out ahead
"in any such contest.-— Record.

Wheat. Damaged and Peach Crod
Ruined.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill., March 14.—Infor-
mation from Southern and Central Illi-
nois indicates more or less damage to
the wheat crop by freezing within the
past week or ten days. The warm
weather last month advanced the grow-
th to such an extent that it was ina
very tender condition when the sharp
freeze began.
From the reports on fruit in th south-
ern part of the State, where the bulk of
the Illinois crop is raised, it may be
safely stated that the peach crop is ruin-
ed. Apples and cherries are safe, but
pears are injured to a considerable ex-
tent. Strawberries, where properly cov-
ered and protected, are not extensively
injured, but where they were not cared
for they are killed or have suffered
badly.
After Postmaster General Wanamaker.
W AsHINGTON, March 18.—In the
house to-day Mr. Morton, of Missouri,
offered for reference a resolution reciting
that it 1s reported that the postmaster
general has been employing postoffice
inspectors and special agents in investi-
gating the claims of republican appli-
cants for appointments as postmasters,
and paying for such services out of the
public funds, declaring that such practi-
ces are contrary to the law of the land
and subversive of good government, and
calling on the postmaster general tor a
statement as to what postoffice inspectors
and special agents have been so em-
ployed.
Won A Wife in Twenty Minutes.
RircHIE CourRrT House, W. Va,
March 17.—A remarkable marriage has
just been announced here. Saturday
morning Jacob Riffner, aged 80 years,
walked from his home, at Eaton’s tun-
nel, to the home of Mrs. Ray, a widow
of 65. He introduced himself to the
widow, stating that he understood she
wished to marry. They talked twenty
minutes, and Mr. Riffner started for this
place, secured a license and returned
with a minister, and before night they
were married. Mr. Riffner, who is a
prosperous farmer, took his bride home
with him this morning.
More Russian Barbarity.
BerLiN, Mach 15.—Dispatches from
Tomsk, the Central Siberian depot for
prisoners, say that the prison now
holds 490 healthy and 275 sick exiles,
but that in 1886 the number of exiles
brought to the prison was 16,184, of
whom only 14,866 were transported
further into the interior. In 1887 the
arrivals numbered 14,277, in 1888 they
numbered 15,015, and in 1889, to Sep-
tember, they numbered over 12,000. Of
these prisoners there were taken to the
interior 18,522 in 1887, 14,239 in 1888,
and 11,000 in 1889.
The daily average number of prison-
ers in 1889 was 1380, and the average
number on the sick list was 396. A
majority of the sick had typhoid fever.
An official report declares that owing to
a lack of room hundreds of sick beds had
to be placed in the open air while the
temperature was as low as six reamur,
and that in consequence of this exposure
the mortality among the sick was enor-
mous.
A Youthful Counterfeiter.
He Made Excellent Work and Looked
Like Little Lord Fauntleroy.
DANVILLE, I1l.,March 18.—The mer-
chants of the village of Georgetown
have for the past month been victimiz-
ed with large quantities of well-executed
spurious dollars and nickels. On Tues-
day Claude Madden, 12 years old,
purchased a postal note at the village
post ofiice and three tickets for an “Un-
cle Tom’s Cabin” show, giving new
dollars and nickles in payment. The
money was discovered to be counterfeit
and the boy questioned. Hesaid Leigh
Ottie Fisher gave him the money.
Fisher is a Jad of 17 years, who looks
like Lord Fauntleroy,has an abundance
of golden curls flowing over his should-
ers, and is a prominent High School
scholar. His father is a respectable
physician.
A search of his father’shouse unearth-
ed a large lot of counterfeit nickels,
rough and unfinished, and two molds
for making nickels, formed of dentist’s
Plager and marble dust. Ottie then
roke down and confessed his guilt. He
said he had been led astray by W. I.
Kester, a traveling watch tinker of
Paris, Ill. Ottie was bound over forthe
Circuit Court, and a warrant issued for
the arrest of Kester. The boy claims
that he made the dies in one day, and
is proud of his workmanship.
No Assessors Need Apply.
Census Superintendent Porter has is-
sued an order that no assessor, collector
or any other person having any connec-
tion, however remote, with the imposi-
tion or receipt of taxes, shall be employ-
edin the capacity of enumerator.
The June registry of voters takes
place about the time the enumerators
make their round, and it is easy to un-
derstand how important it is that the
two shall be kept entirely separate and
distinct from each other. Where asses-
sors in valuing property, real or per-
sonal, meet with such obstructions that
they are unable to perforin their duties
as required by law, the law specifies
what remedy shall be employed, esti-
mates being allowed in certain cases to
take the place of facts that cannot for
any reason be got at.
tis different with the enumerators.
The information they desire can only be
obtained with any exactness by a tho-
rough canvass from house to house;
and when such means fail, and guesses
are resorted to, the very object for
which the censusis taken—to obtain facts
which are to be the basis of statistical
tables of great value to the public—wil]
be practically defeated.

ate by Louis Wigfall, who cutsuch a

“Gentlemen, I know him well; he is
the most eloquent, brilliant d—n fool in

The Census Taking in June.
Pittsburg Post.
The taking of the census will begin
cn the first of June. Itis not difficult
reaching a reliable estimate of the ag-
gregate population. Assuming the in-
crease will be 30 per cent, or the same
as in the decade from 1870 to 1880, the
total population of the United States
will be about 65,000,000, or more than
twice the population of the Union
at the outbreak of the civil war. Of
this total about 56,000,000 will be whites
and more than 8,850,000 blacks, if each
of the races has maintained its ratio of
increase as computed in the last census,
or 29.20 per cent for the whites and 84.-
67 for the blacks. But we doubt that
the negroes are increasing so much fast-
er proportionately. If they are, and if
they go on at that rate, they will form
one-third of the population by the md-
dle of the next century. The New
York Sun makes this estimate of the
present population of the different
divisions oft he Union:
NEW ENGLAND STATES.
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Con-
necticut. Population, 1880, 4,010,529 ;
in 1889, 4,500,000,
MIDDLE STATES.
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylva-
nia, Delaware, Maryland, West Virgin-
ia. Population, 1880, 12,196,886 ; 1890
15,000,000.
WESTERN STATES.
California !Colorado, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota,
Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, Or-
egon, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Washington, Wisconsin. Population,
1880, 16,605,081 ; 1890, 23,500,000.
SOUTHERN STATES.
Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia,
Kentucky, Louisiana. Mississippi, Mis-
souri, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Tennessee, Texas, Virginia. Popula-
tion, 1880, 16,837,317; 1890, 22,000,000.
According to these estimates the West
and South are close together in popula-
tion. Since 1880 New England has
gained about one-eighth of its popula-
tion, the Middle States more than one-
fifth, the Western States more than
two-fifths, and the Southern States about
one-third. In 1880 there were in the
Southern States 6,113,064 negroes, and
if their number has increased at the ra-
tio of the last decade it is now 8,232,449,
or nearly two-fifths of the whole. This
indicates the proportions of the negro
problem in the near future.
Under the law the taking of the cen-
sus, as regards the enumeration of pop-
ulation, must be completed within 15
days in the towns and within 30 days
in the country districts. Mr. Porter,
the superintendent of the census, ex-
pects with the aid of electrical comput-
ing machines to give the principal re-
sultg within 20 days after the last sched-
ule has been received. Is is probable,
therefore, that we shall know the exact
number of the population before the |1st
of August. This congress at the ses-
sion next year will be able to make an
apportionment of representatives in con-
gress and presidential electors.
An Alarming Condition of Affairs in
Kansas,
TorEKA, Kan., March 17.—The Far-
mers’ Alliance, which has within. six
months become the most powerful far-
mers’ organization that Kansas has ever
known, has through its president address-
ed an open letter to the Kansas delega-
tion in Congress calling their attention
to the alarming condition of the agri-
cultural interests of the State and de-
manding legislation for their relief.
The letter says :
“We call attention to the fact that a
single law firm in one city in Southern
Kansas now has the contract for the fore-
closure of 1,800 mortgages. This means
1,800 homesteads transferred from the
hands of so many industrious families
to the hands of capitalists, either domes-
tic or foreign. The foreclosure of these
mortgages is in accordance with a pre-
conceived purpose to gain possession of
these farms and people them with a
more servile tenantry, imported from
foreign lands for this especial purpose.
Foreclosures and evictions are taking
place in very many parts of our State,
and we need not go all the way to Eu-
rope to witness scenes of cruelty in mat-
ters of this kind. All oyer the State
the homes of our people are imperiled.
They are struggling against adverse cir-
cumstances and against hope to sustain
themselves until relief shall come. The
poeple believe that these conditions are
argely due to vicious legislation,
“They have been promised by each
of the great political parties that some-
thing would be done for their relief ;
both parties have been tried and both
have thus far failed even to attempt any
measure contemplating a betterment of
the condition of the industrial classes.
They have seen that while they have
been compelled to sacrifice their pro-
ducts in many instances absolutely below
cost of production in order to procure
the common necessities of life, and in
the effort, in many cases unsuccessful,
to keep the sheriff from invading their
homes, their representatives in Con-
gress are engaged in the consideration
of every imaginable question except
such as contemplate relief to the distress
of their constituents.
“There are measures which the far-
mers demand shail have immediate at-
tention These relate to questions of
money, of transportation, and their
ownership of American lands.”
The letter then goes on to say:
“The distress of the people is crying
aloud for relief. They believe that very
many of the qaestions that are receiv-
ing the attention of Congress are fur less
urgent than those upon whic the safety
of their homes and the welfare of their
families depend. They believe that the
white citizens have some rights as well
as the colored citizens of the South.
They believe that the fallen heroes, both
liberty and perpetuity of our institu-
tions can afford to wait for one minute
until therights of living heroes in the
ceive some recognition by the men who!
have been chosen to represent them in
Congress. Behind these demands are
! more than 100,000 ballots in the State of |
Kansas, and the time is coming and is |
not far distant when the legislators will |
need the voice of their constituents.
Ur
Irish Girls Stop a Mill.
700 Hands Out of Work Because of a
Rumpus Over St. Patrick Decoration.
Farv River, Mass., March 16.—
An amusing, but serious strike is on at
the Hargraves Mill here, which has
temporarily thrown 700 hands out of
work, Some 200 pretty girls are the
cause, but this time the trouble is be-
tween themselves and not with the cor-
poration.
In the carding room there has been
some trouble for some time, the Irish
girls on one side, headed by Miss O’Cal-
laghan, and the English girls, supported
by the American and Scotch maidens
on the other. The rumpus, which, aid-
ed and upheld by the men hands, has
been over Irish politics, each side taking
all opportunities to slur at the other.
The approach of the 17th of March
saw the Brn girls prepare to celebrate.
They went to some expense to decorate
their machines with green ribbons,
which were promptly torn down by
some unknown member of the other
faction.
On Friday the Irish girls came to
work, all decked out with green ribbons.
The other side heard of it and showed
up appareled with blue and orange. This
led at once to a quarrel, during which
Miss O'Callaghan accused a Yankee
girl of destroying their decorations and
slapped her. She was in return knocked
out by a strapping English young wo-
man. The result was a general scrim-
mage, which was only stopped by the
overseer and male help after consider-
ble damage had been done to feminine
toilets. The girls at once quit work un-
til the other side promised to dispense
with their decorations. This the Irish
girls refused to do, and so the whole
mill is at a standstill, while the agent is
in despair.

Te THE HUNGRY PUBLIC.
It is only those who
eat—the many who re-
quire the necessities of
life, to prolong their ex-
istence, that we address.
Those who use no-
thing,—who think they
need nothing,—who live
on expectation, hope or
some intangible nothing,
will save time by passing
this column by. It isnot
intended for them but the
other fellows. We write
what is here put down for
the people who are mortal
enough to get hungry,and
in consequence of getting
hungry are sensible enough
to try to get what is good,
pure, wholesome and : nec-
essary, at prices that don’t
require them to lay out all
that they earn, to appease
their appetites. We have
: been in the hunger appeas-
ing business for ‘ many,
many years. We know
what men want, we know
what women and children
desire, and we know how
much better and how much
more pleasant it is to re-
side in a community where
people enjoy good health,
than among dyspeptic com-
plainers, growlers and suf-
ferers. To have healthy
people pure food must be
used. We understand this,
and understanding it, keep
nothing but the purest of
everything that can be
found in the market. To
satisfy the demands of the
many different stomachs
that we try to gratify, re-
quires a vast variety of
dainties, condiments and
relishes, as well as the sub-
stantials; and knowing this
there is nothing that is eat-
able, relishable or appetiz-
ing, that we do not keep.
1t is for you who want, or
use anything eatable, eith-
er as meats, fish, groceries,
fruits, nuts, relishes, or in
fact anything from a piece
of chewing gum to a first
class beef steak, that wa
write and pay the printer
to print this invitation for
you to come and see us.
Ifyou live in town drop
in and see what all we have
and what quality of goods
we carry.
Ii you live in the country
come in the first time you
come to town and learn how
easy it is to get good, pure,
fresh groceries, as low if
not lower than many have
been in the habit of paying ;
for old, impure and
strengthless articles of diet.
If you have any good fresh
farm produce bring’it along.
Under any and all eir-
cumstances
COME AND SEE US.
