A CorrecrioN.—In our report of
council proceedings last week it was er-
roneously stated that S. A. Brew asked
to be exonerated from the payment of
taxes for 1889. It should have been
that he asked to have the taxes of Wm.
Toner exonerated for that year. This
is quite a difference, which any one who
knows Mr. Brew will readily under-
stand.
FaraL REsvLT oF A HorsE DuEL.--
A correspondent writing from Tyrone
says: Belmont, the handsome and
1 gentle white trotting horse, the property
of Mr. Charles Woodin, will never
again be seen upon the race track. Some
ime after 5 o'clock Wednesday morn-
ing, Captain, a black horse, got loose
from his stall at the livery stable and
wandered into the stall occupied by
Belmont, where, from after evidence, a
kicking match was undoubtedly indulg-
ed in. The black horse was badly cut
on the left hip and other parts of the
body and survives. Belmont had but
one mark, right in the centre of the
foerhead, which must have resulted in
his death in a very short time, as he was
dead when found. Belmont was
purchased by Mr. Woodin in Phil-
adelphia some ten yearsagoand since
then in season has been a tamiliar and
pleasing picture upon-the several race
courses of this section of the State. He
was not fast, never beating 2:47, yet was
so docile and kind any child could drive
him. His sudden and inglorious ending
will cause many expressions of regret
from his host of admirers. He was
aged 22 years, and when in life $1,000
would not have purchased him. He
appeared to grow better as he grew
older, a virtue others outside the animal
kingdom might emulate. Requiescat in
pace.
DratH oF JOHN GorDON.—On Fri-
day of last week,atone o'clock p-m., Mr.
John Gordon passed away into the un-
know, after a long and useful life of 90
years. The old gentleman had been
ailing for only a short time, but the
sands of life being so nearly run out, a
brief illness snapped the slender chord
that bound him to earth. He was born
in Columbiatown, Pennsylvania, Jan-
uary 1, 1880. When a young man he
moved to Center county, where he resid-
ed until 1868. He was married in 1825
to Esther Hoover, who still survives at
the advanced age of 85. In 1868 they
moved to Minnesota, and in 1888 came
to Stockton. They have had 14 children,
of whom all ave dead but three, our
townsman, J. B. Gordon, being the
youngest of the family. With him
they have lived since coming here, tend-
erly cared for with a filial devotion sel-
dom excelled.
Mr. Gordon was an exceptionally
bright and intelligent old man, and re-
tained his faculties to the end ; his re-
collections of events transpiring during
the early part of the century were very
vivid. He looked forward with antici-
pation to the separation from earthly
things and died in the serene hoge of a
future life.
The services were held at the res-
idence of his son on Saturday afternoon.
Rev. Conwell conducted them and

Paper,
"A Bogus SaBBATH CHAMPION. —We
have already referred to the prosecution
of railroad men at Port Matilda, this
county, for running trains on the Bald
Eagle Valley railroad on Sunday, the
prosecutor being R. A. Patton, of that
place. The first suit was brought for
running trains on Sunday, March 16th,
nine of the men being brought before
Esq. Reese, of Port Majilda, on a charge
of breaking the Sabbath by such railroad
work, and each of them was fined $4,
which was paid by attorneys of the rail-
road company. A second suit was
brought against eleven employees of the
same company, by the same party, for
running trains on Sunday, March 23d.
It must not be supposed that these
prosecutions have been induced by a
peculiar regard; for the sabbath in the
neighborhood of Port Matilda, or that
Patton has been prompted in the pro-
cezdings by a pious disposition. From
what we learn it is spite work, he being
prompted by a revengeful spirit. He is;
as we understand, an old railroader, who
was discharged from the employ of the
Pennsylvania railroad for some dere-
liction, and takes this way of getting
even with the company. Besides, as
one half of the fines go to the informer,
he can makesome money by acting as
the champion of the sabbath. But in
such a course as he has adopted he can-
not be sustained by public opinion, nor
even by those who are particular in the
observance of the sabbath, and he will
find that by coming in contact with the
railroad company he has tackled an ene-
my that will be sure to down him.

——The Easter Services at the Re-
formed Church next Sunday will be
very interesting and impressive. The
Holy Communion will be celebrated at
the morning service by Rev. Schiedt, of
Lancaster, Pa. He will preach in the
evening at 7 o'clock. The efficient
choir of this church, under the leader-
ship of Prof. W. T. Meyer, will render
choice and appropriate music in the
most artistic manner. Rev. M. O. Noll
will also be present at all the services
and will preach at Zion on Sunday af-
ternoon.
——On Wednesday evening time
severed the connection between Mr.
Noah Musser, of Buffalo Run, and all
that was mortal. Mr. M. had been
ailing for some time, and about two
weeks since was stricken down with
paralysis from which he never regained
conscio: 8 ess. He was a kind obliging
neighbor, an exemplary christain—al-
ways active and prompt at the church
and sabbath school. Mr. Musser was
in his 60th year and leaves a wife and
three grown children to mourn his
loss.
——During the past week quite a
number of farmers in Huntingdon and
adjoining counties have been victimized
by lightning rod swindlers. The un-
suspecting farmer is required to pay a
small sum as the difference between the
old and new rods. He is first requested
to sign a contract which he ultimately
finds to be a negotiable note for about
ten times the amount which he agreed
to pay for the exchange of lightning
rods. This fraudulent scheme has
worked beautifully among farmers and
others, 2nd has netted its promoters sev-
eral thousand dollars.

In Tuer New House.—The new
business house of McCalmont & Co., of
this place, into which that prominent
firm recently moved, is well worth be
ing visited by those who take an in-
terest in the articles used in the
agricultural business. The firm has
for some years being doing a heavy
trade in their especial line, but never
before had they the room or opportu-
nity of displaying their good as they
now have.
Their business stand includes the
whole of the first floor of the large
building, 30 feet front by 200 feet
deep, recently erected by Dr. Hale
opposite the Pennsylvania railway de-
pot. Of this immense floor, fifty feet
of its front portion constitutes the busi-
ness part of the establishment, which
includes the office, partitioned off,
and affords accommodation for the
lighter articles in their line of trade,
such as seeds and the smaller im-
plements. The back part is 150 feet
in length, where wagons, buggies,
plows, cultivators,reapers, mowers and
other implements are stored. The
space is so large that from twenty-
five to thirty Conklin and Champion
wagons can be set up in shape for
examination by purchaseres and ready
for sale, in addition to buggies, and
sulkies. No other establishment in
this part of the State can make such a
display or offer sues an opportunity
for a choice of articles in that line.
This = apartment also contains
various ether implements and articles
of machinery used in the farmer's
calling. In the line of seeds this firm
do a large business, their purchases
of clover and timothy seeds for their
customers amounting to tons.
In every respect McCalmont & Co.
are fully equipped for conducting their
| business on an enlarged scale and with
increased facilities. To farmers com-
ing to Bellefonte their establishment
affords a point of interesting attraction
as well as a place where they can deal
to advantage.
PorsoNED BY WILD PARSNIPS.—
Yesterday afternoon while a little son
and daughter of Mr.” Gladstetter, who
keeps the toll gate on the turnpike above
Flemington, were returning from school,
they gathered wild parsnips in a field
and ate some of them, under the im-
pression that they were artichokes.
Shortly after reaching home both the
boy and girl were taken ill, and suffered
greatly. At 8 o'clock in the evening
the little girl, aged 7 years, died from
the effects of the poisonous roots she had
eaten. The little boy is recovering and
was much improved this morning.—

Last Saturday night the jewelry |
house in this place to elect delegates to
the State convention. As that was the
only business, and it had been fixed up
for General Hastings before hand, there
was no excitement and but little inter-
est in the proceedings. The attendance
of delegates, 115 in number, was unu-
sually large for a convention held cut of
the regular season, but this may be ac-
counted for by the desire to make as big
a Hastings show as possible.
In the organization of the conven:
tion Prof. J. W. Heston, of State Col-
lege, was elected President, with Guyer
Mattern and D. S. Port as secretaries,
and J. H. Reichard as teller. On tak-
ing the chair Prof. Heston made a short
speech in which he spoke of the great-
ness of the Republican party, the purity
of its leaders and the beneficence of its
policy. The Professor is young and no
“doubt believed what he "said, but when
he gets older he will know better.
The business of the convention was
to elect two delegates to go to the next
Republican State convention and vote
for Daniel H. Hastings for Governor,
{and the selection of gentlemen who
| would faithfully attend to that business.
was next in order. Mr. Budd Thomp-
i son, of Worth township, nominated for
| delegates Col. James P. Coburn, of
Aaronsburg, and Mr. E. C. Humes, of
| Bellefonte, who were unanimously elect-
ed. By way of instructing them, which
{ was entirely superfluous, as they know
for what purpose they are to go to the
convention, Mr. S. S. Crissman, of Phil-
ipsburg, offered the following resolu-
tion, which was unanimously adopted:
“The Republican party of the county of Centre
in Convention assembled, noticing with pride
and satisfaction the efforts which are being
made throughout the State to honor our popu-
lar and talented fellow citizen, Gen. D. H,
Hastings, by making him a candidate for the
office of Governor of Pennsylvania, recogniz-
ing his eminent ability and fitness for said of-
fice, believing that he is the choice of the
majority of the Republican party of the State,
and desiring to show our. appreciation of one
whom we deem it an honor to claim as a citi-
zen of Centre county, do hereby
Resolve: That we most heartily endorse and
ratify the action of his many friends in other
delegates this day elected to represent oar
county in the next Republican State Conven-
tion, to vote for and use all honorable means
in] their {power to secure hisfnomination ‘as
candidate for Governor of this Commonwealth.”
The heavy business of the convention
being thus completed, the ornamental
touches came next. Mr. E. C. Humes,
one of the delegates elected, was called
on for a speech, and the old gentleman
straightway proceeded to give the con-
vention his impressions of General Hast-
ings. They were of the most favorable
kind, fully justifying his determination
to do all he could to bring about his
nomination for Governor. Then Col.
Coburn, the other delegate, was called
on for a speech. The .Colonel enlarged
in a general way upon the General's
virtues, and referred to him particularly
as the friend of humanity. He dwelt
upon his services at Johnstown, where
he appeared upon the seene with miracu-
lous promptness, and ministered to the
wants of an afflicted and suffering peo-
ple with unstinted hand. While the
speaker was advancing the Johnstown
episode as a prominent reason why Gen-
eral Hastings deserved to be Governor, |
it did not seem to strike him as being a |
little singular that the Republicans of |
the county in which Johnstown is locat-
ed instructed their delegates for Dela-
mater.
Other speeches followed. Col. D. S. |
Keller made one, which was a eulogy
of the Republican party in general and |
of General Hastings in particular. Prof. |
J. Hamilton then made an address in |
which he told the delegates that when
they went to the State Convention they
should not only #7y to nominate Hast-
ings, but that they should nominate him..
This was very good advice considered
from a Hastings standpoint, but the
carrying cf it out will depend altogether
upon what Boss Quay will have to say
about it. There is every appearance
that he intends to have some other can-
didate than Hastings on the ticket, and
Republican State conventions, it is well
known, are held merely to carry out the
intentions of the Boss. The proceedings
of the convention closed with a display of
pyrotechnics set off by W. I. Swoope,

Easter Vacation Exrrorses.—The
exercises of the Bellefonte High School
for the Easter Vacation included a very
interesting programme. The musical
introduction consisted of an instru-
mental duet by Misses Carrie Gross
and Mary Schofield. In the opening
oration Miss Bridgie A. Curry took an
optimistic view of the Sunny Side of
Life. This was followed by Geo. Me.
Potter's views on Political Principles;
Mrs. Laura Hafer chose a religious
theme mn her oration on “Hope through
the Cross.” Instrumental music by
Miss Gross followed, after which Miss
Anna J. Stott discussed the question
whether the World is Growing Better,
“Arbitration—not War” was the sub-
ject of anoration by Charles A. Row-
an; Miss Myra M. Holiday spoke on
the Education of To-day, after which
there was a vocal solo by Miss Fanny
Twitmire. Then came a series of
orations on the following subjects :
“Opportunity for Work,” by Miss
Carrie R. Shirk ; the “Labor Question”
by John W. Morgan; “The Butler
Bill,” by Miss. Florence R. Longacre;
“God’s Will has a Record,” by Miss
Carrie M. Gross; “Guard Well the

Millie F. Smith; “Earnest Effort,”
by Miss Lillie M. Smith ; “Value of
Time,” by Miss May Woodring;
“Growth of English Liberty,” by Har-
ry G. DeSilvia, all of which were cred-
itably delivered. The exercises closed
with an instrumental duet by Misses
Carry Gross and Miss Mary Schofieid.
