band of Philipsburg, had arrived, and
after a few selections of music a speech
of dedication was made by Mr. W. G.
Morrison. The citizens deserve credit
for so promptly taking hold of this mat- |
ter, especially Mr. S. R. Pringle for his !
pains in painting and preparing the pole,
and Mr. Jas. T. Marks and G. A. R.
comrades Adam Cowher, John Daugh-
enbaugh, George Soner and others for
their assistance. The picnic under the
management of Castle, No, 219, Knights
of the Golden Eagle, was a splendid
success. They assembled at their hall
where they were joined by the Sunday
schools.and headed by the ¢Big Six”
the procession marched to the picnic
grounds near town. The first speech
was made by Mr. W. G. Morrison, who
in behalf of the Castle, welcomed all to
the picnic and spoke of the objects, ear-
ly history and foundation of the order.
He was followed by Rev. J. C. Young,
who delivered an eloquent oration.
Rev. A. J. Jackson came next with a
forcible but appropriate speech, and in
the afternoon Aaron Williams, Esq.,
fairly broke his record as speechmaker
in an enthusiastic speech. He was near
the place of his birth, amongst many
of his early friends, and rejoiced to
meet them. Field Marshal H. H. Os-
man was busy as a.bee, all were pleased
and the day was very pleasantly and
profitably spent. During the evening a
festival was held which netted the K.
G. E. a neat sum.
——The Fourth of July, 1890, was a
quiet and uneventful day in Bellefonte
There was no public demonstration and
almost asabbath calm pervaded the
town. Most of our demonstrative char-
acters went to other places to celebrate:
Quite a number went to Tyrone and
‘Williamsport. The Undine Hose com-
pany accom panied by the Pleasant Gap
band,and Company B., ot the P. N. G,
participated in the Williamsport parade.
Business of course was suspended heres
the stores and other public places being
closed. The rattling explosion of fire-
crackers served to mark the distinction
between the glorious Fourth and ordi-
nary days.
Mrs. Margaret Wallis, while in
Gray's grocery store yesterday, had her
purse lifted from the counter while she
was waiting for change, by one of the
gang of boys who evidently had enter-
ed for the purpose of peculation. It
contained two silver dollars and a mark-
ed ten cent piece. It is evident that all
the thieves are not caught by the cap-
ture of the two boys who were taken to
Altoona yesterday for robbing boxes at
the post office, for depredations have
been made at several stores during the
past few days.— Philipsburg Journal of
July 1st.

——The Philipsburg Journal says
that Mike Mukey, a Hungarian of All-
port, was missed on Sunday. On
search being made for him, he was
found in a pool of water, with his feet
upward. His clothing was lying on
the ground by the side of the pool, and
it is supposed that he was in the act of
bathing and could not extricate himself
from the position in which he was
found.

chased a two-year-old colt from a man
named Randall, at Pine Creek, tha
was sired by R. D. Peck’s blooded stal-
lion. Mr. White paid $200 for the an-
imal, which is certainly a liberal price
for a two-year-old and showed that the
breed is considered a valuable one.
MARRIAGE Licenses.—The follow-
ing partis were licensed to get married
by Register Rupp during the past
week :
Allen G. Keller, of Renovo, and

the 21st of June, at the residence of Col.
P. W. Barnhart, of Boggs township, to
witness the marriage of his daughter,
Alice L. Barnhart, to Mr. Howard G.
Hurd, of Farrandsville, Pa. Rev.
George King, of the M. E. church, per-
formed the ceremony. Mr. William
Fredericks, of Lock Haven, cousin of
the groom, and Mr. James K. Barn-
hart, brother of the bride, acted as ush-
ers. The dress of the bride was a hand-
some slate colored silk, and she wore a
bouquet of natural flowers of choice se-
lection. When the happy bride and
groom departed on the evening train to
visit eastern cities they were followed
by the good wishes of the large company
and the usual fusilade of old shoes and
rice. The bride is one of Bald Eagle's
best types of womanhood, and of the
groom, who is manager of extensive
lumber works at Farrandsville, we can
speak in the highest terms.
CHILDREN’S DAY AT HOWARD.—
Children’s Day services heid in the
Evangelical church at Howard lasg
Sunday evening were pronounced by
almost ull as the best that they had
witnessed this season. The children,
under the instruction of Mrs. S. KE’
Hensyl, did excellently, and the ability
of Z. T. Weirick asa vocal instructor
made the choir’s part of the exercise
very fine.
The opening was a voluntary by the
choir and the anthem ¢“Magnity Hi$
Name,” which were followed by a solo
by Essie Hannon with the “Song of
‘Welcome ;” after which they were led
in prayer by Rev. Jarrett; responsive
reading, and a song by the choir ; recita-
tion, ¢‘The Telegram by Maud Hopkins,
was a very pretty piece and well spoken;
“Wee workers for Jesus” was recited
very nicely by Lizzie Mann and Maud-
ie Schenck ; “Singing for the Lord,”
by a band of children ; “Only a Boy,”
was well spoken by Frankie Holter;
“Three Little Chairs,” by Emma Mann,
after which Miss Lula Hensyl sang a
solo, “Elsie Leigh,” and a quartette in
chorus by Will Weber, bass, Will
Long, tenor, and Sallie Lucas, alto,
was pronounced very good. Recitation
Worship; “We'll Take the World for
Jesus,” by 6 small boys ; song by the
choir. “Nellie’s Faith” by Alice Wistar
was very well spoken. “What Wonder-
ful Things are Words,” by Lizzie
Mann. Duet, “Mother’s Songs,”’ by Z.
T. Weirick and Sallie Lucas, with full
chorus. “Hark the Voices o’er the Sea’
was spoken by Essie Hannon; “What
‘We Love Best,” by five little girls.
Miss Elsie Long then sang a very pret-
ty authem solo, with quartette chorus,
“Say Not I Journey Alone,” Will
Long, bass, Z. T. Weirick, tenor, and
Sallie Lucas, alto ; recitation by Jen-
nie Wyble ; Mrs. Nora Thompson then
sang a sole “The Door Step,” with!quar-
tette chorus; The girl who Helps her
Mother,” by Willie Ertle ; duet ‘Little
Ones,” by Anna Weber and Addie
Confer ; song exercise, ‘“All Hail the
Power of Jesus Name,” by 12 little girls.
“The Path of the Cyclone’ was then
very well spoken by Miss Lula Hensyl ;
duet “Sing the Song the Old Folks
Loved,” by Annie Hensyl, and Sallie
Lucas. Then there was a short address
by Rev. Jarrett, after which the choi®
sang, “Close of Children’s Day.” After
taking up a collection which amounted
to $11, the assemblage was dismissed
with the benediction.
The church was handsomely decorat-
ed with flowers and spruce, and banners
distributed among the flowers added
to its appearance. Notwithstanding
the warm weather and the crowded
church there was enough variety in the
programme to hold the audience’s un-
divided attention for about 1} hours.
Miss Blanche E. Hensyl presided at
the organ, assisted by Miss Elsie Long,
both doing excellent work.
TuE F. URTH AT TYRONE.—The cele-
bration of the Fourth of July at Tyrone
was a very fine one indeed and reflected
credit both on the people of that place
and the organization of Patriotic Sons
of America under whose auspices it was
held. There were 4000 or 5000 visitors
in the town, which was beautifully
decorated withflags, bunting and arch-
es. The parade numbered between
1100 and 1200 men and seven bands of
music and a number of excellent drum
corps, which made a fine display.
This celebration was held under the
auspices of the Central Pennsylvania
Association of the Patriotic Sons of
America and was inaugurated by Camp
No. 827, the local organization of Ty-
rone. This Association comprises camps
in Clinton, Lycoming, Centre, Eik,
Clearfield, Jefferson, Cameron, Huntin-
don and Blair, and on account of its
central position Tyrone was choosen as
the point for the first general gathering*
In the parade nine counties were repre-
sented by camps. It was the liveliest
waking up that Tyrone has had for a
long time. The parade took place in
the morning and the convention in the
afternoon. It was decided to hold the
convention and parade next year at
Lock Haven, the convention to come
oft on the 3d and the parade on the
4th of July
A MiLESBURG YOUNG MAN KILLED. —
The Renovo News gives the following
account of a fatal accident that hap-
pened to Miles Draucher, formerly of
Milesburg, this county, which happened
in the railroad yard at that place on
the 2nd inst :
A train was being made in the lum-
ber yard, and Mr. Draucher was en-
gaged in coupling cars when he was
caught between two bumpers and ter-
ribly crushed. He was unconscious
when picked up. A stretcher was pro-
cured, and the injured man was taken
to the residence of his brother, John
Draucher, on Seventh Street. Dr. Full-
mer was summoned to attend him, but
the physician on his arrival found that
his services would be unavailing to
stay the progress of death, and half
an hour later, at 11-830 o’clock, the un-
fortunate man passed away without re-
covering consciousness.
Mr. Draucker was about 24 years of
ageand was unmarried. He came to
Renovo about six months ago, and ob-
tained employment in the P. & E.!
blacksmith shop. About a month ago!
he was given a position as brakeman in |
the yard. He was a good, faithful em-
ployee and was respected and esteemed
by all. The remains were taken to
Milesburg for inter ment.
SERIOUS ACCIDENT T0 AN Ex-CoUN.
TY OFFICIAL.—We learn from the
Lock Haven Democrat that Martin WW.
Herr, of Salona, ex-county treasurer of
Clinton county, met with an accident
last Friday, which may cost him his
life. He and his boys had gone out to
his farm about two miles from Salona
topick cherries, and Mr. Herr, whose
crippled condition is well known, climb-
ed one of the trees {0 a height of 21 or
22 feet, from whence he had a fall,
alighting on the ground on his head
and shoulders, which resulted in paralyza-
tion, and rendered him for the time
being uneonscious. Dr. Drum was sent
for and when he arrived he sent for Dr.
Armstrong,of Lock Haven, both gentle-
men after consultation agreeing that it
was a very serious case, and that the
patient was in a critical condition. At last
accounts he was reported to be com-
pletely paralyzed from the breast down
and was insensible to all feeling, A
pin can be stuck into him anywhere
and he does not know it. The Doctor
says the outcome of the accident cannot
be told, the patient being in a very
critical condition.
FATAL AccipENT.—Sirce our last
publication an accident happened to
Elmer Lutz, son of Mr, John Lutz, of
Benner township, while he was assisting
in taking in hay on his father’s farm,
which resulted in Lis death. The young
man was on the wagon handling the
fork which was a double harpoon. He
had fastened a load of hay and it was
being pulled up when the rope broke
and the fork fell, striking him. The
one prong ran into his leg, severing the
main artery. Aid was at once summon-
ed, but before it arrived the young man
was dead, having only lived ten minutes
after the fall of the fork. He was about
twenty years of age and was an excellent
young man. His parents have the sym- |
pathy of their friends and the community |
in this sad visitation.
