CrazeDp BY tHE HEAT.--Williams
P. Atwater, a young mun whose pa-
rents resides in Williamsport, lies at his
hore bound hand and foot strapped to
his bed a raving maniac from the effects
of the hot weather. The attack was
brought on after a day’s work in the
hot sun. After home in
the evening young Atwater was pros-
trated and became violently insane.

STABBED IN THE ARM.—On Satur-
day night at the Adventist meeting in
Flemington William Frank, of that
place, and a man named Bowman from
out the ridges, on got into a fight, which
started about a girl, and ended in Bow-
man stabbing Frank in one arm with
a pocket-knife, laying open the muscle.
After this achievement Bowman and his
friends left for the ridges and Frank
called on Dr. Hall, who gave him the
necessary surgical attention. The
wound is a serious one and will require
the most careful nursing to prevent him
from losing the use of the arm.
A Fierce STorM.—In describing the
violent thunder storm which recently
agitated the atmosphere in Rebersburg
and neighborhood with terrific effect,
the Centre Reporter says that it seemed
to come down the mountain abut one
mile above town in the shape of a
cloud of inky darkness, the rolling and
pitching of which portended danger.
As it struck the town the spire of the
Reformed church was blown into the
adjoining alley, and trees generally in
the village and neighborhood were torn
from their roots. The storm seemed to
cover the valley from Rebersburg east,
and its track was strewn with hundreds
of trees and broken fences. Much
damage was done to the corn crop.
Tue RarrLer Was Too Mvuocs For
THE DoG.—A Hare’s Valley corres-
pondent sends us the following item :
J. C. Dell, while passing through a
field on his mother’s farm in Hare's
Valley a few day ago, was surprised to
hear bis dog give a sharp yelp as though
badly hurt, and upon investigating the
matter it was found that the dog had
been in company with a monstrous rat-
tlesnake. The dog beat a hasty retreat
and Jim could plainly see without being
rudely inquisitive that the dog had sur-
rendered with a deadly wound just be-
low the eye from which the blood drop-
ped thick and fast, while the srake curl-
ed himself and seemed eager for another
battle,but Jim soon called himto time by
the use of a two-handed club. The snake
measured almost four feet in length and
it carried fifteen rattles. The dog’s
swollen and lifeless body lay upon the
ground in less than an hour after being
bitten.— Huntingdon Local News.
He Was A Fast Liver.—Osceola
was completely shocked last Monday
when R. B. Weaver suddenly took his
departure without making known his
destination. ‘Weaver was the agent of
the P. R.R. Co. at Osceola, a position
which he had filled for the past seven
years. Two years ago he was elected
tax collector of Osceola borough and so
careful an officer was he that at the last
Spring election he was re-elected. In
April last he was married to Miss Jessie
Hoyt, daughter of Milo Hoyt, and the
wedding tour embraced the State of
New York and Canada. Tor the past
two years he had been living pretty
high. His salary amounted to but $54
a month, yet he bought and kept a fine
team of horses, a carriage, buggy, &e. |
and dressed in the latest styles. The
manner in which he sailed along was
that he would make two manifests
on cars loaded with fire clay from the
Wigton mines, the first manifest being
of the exact number of cars and on
which he would collect the freight and
then making his manifest to the conduc-
tor he would always drop from one to
three carsfand pocket the difference. As
the freight on each car was nearly eight
dollars he would not need to work the
game long to get a pretty good income.
As an agent of the P. R. R. company
is looking the accounts over we expect to
hear the matter explained. He hired a
boy to drive him to near Clearfield Mon-
day morning where he took the Beech
Creek train. He gave a note to the
boy to take back home with him which
was addressed to O. 'W. Harpster, em-
ployed in the office, and which read as
follows: Oscar. TI have left Osceola.
Please advise S. S. B. Enclosed you
will find $10, which you will send by
passenger. Tell Hoyts family I will
make everything right, and let them
know soon where I am. R.B. W.
Clearfield Republican.
Hopkins & Weymouth, of Lock
Haven, the mill owners at Snow Shoe,
whose lumber piles were so greatly en-
dangered by the fire in the woods re-
cently, sent their check on the 6th in-
stant for $50 to Philipsburg, to be di-
vided proportionately between the Hope
company and the Reliance members
who joined them in going down to
the fire. This liberality is appreciated by
the Philipsburg firemen, who really did
not get their engine to the fire at all,
on account of the accident they met
with on the road, although a large num-
ber of the men went on and did what
they could individually.
Mr. Gotlieb Haag has made great
i improvements on the Cummings House
property on Bishop street since he
{ came in possession of it several years
[ since. The main building was repaint-
{ed and repaired, and made look like |
I new in every particular. The large |
grounds connected with ithave been |
put in excellent condition, and two |
new and handsome looking dwelling |
houses have been added to the premises |
in addition to the erection of a band- |
some and commodious new barn. As |
if not satisfied with these improvements |
Mr. Haag is now engaged in making |
further additions to the Cummings |
House. A handsome verandah is now
being constructed along the front of the |
building which will add greatly to the |
appearance as well as tothe value of |
the property. Mr. Michael Kerstetter,
of Pleasant Gap, is the skillful carpen- |
ter who has been doing this work for |
Mr. Haag.

Mrs. Jane F. Simler, one of the |
old citizens of Philipsburg, died in that |
place last Saturday evening, after a pro- |
tracted illness with typhoid fever, she |
having gone beyond the age of three
score years and ten. She was the widow
of John D. Simler, who died about fif- |
teen years ago, and who came from |
Philadelphia in 1850, his wife following |
him’within a year. Her husband pur- |
chased a plot of land, cleared the brush :
and erected one of the first houses in the
neigkborhood of Ninth street. The de-
ceased leaves a daughter, Mrs. Mary P.
Bagley, wife of W. Bagley, and a large |
circle of friends to mourn her loss. She
has been identified with the Episcopal |
church for many years. She was not- |
ed for many excellent traits of character. |
——Magnolia Lodge, No. 602, I. O. |
0. F. of Philipsburg, have recently
erected a fine block and equipped a hall
at an expense of about $20,000. The |
dedication is to take place Oct. 15th, |
1890. The officers of the Grand Lodge |
will be in attendance, and a parade and
banquet will be given. The parade is
expected to be oneof the largest and
finest which has ever taken place in
that section of the State. Special trains
have been secured to convey all who
wish to go and return to their homes the
same evening. Hundreds of Lodges,
Encampments and Cantons have been
invited. The many other orders in
Philipsburg and vicinity, of which there
area score or more, will join in the
parade. A big time is promised.
——>Samuel Mildred, of Glen Richie,
Clearfield county, being without chil-
dren of his own, was not disposed to be
so very careful in leaving dangerous
articles about his residence and accord-
ingly left a bottle of cedar oil outside of
its usual place. A little daughter of |
Samuel Cross, aged about 2 years, went
into the house when there was no one
present and drank a sufficient quantity
of the fluid to cause death ina few
moments. The accident was greatly
deplored by Mr. and Mrs. Mildred, and
the parents of the child have the sym-
pathy of all.
——The Resolute base ball club, of
Lock Haven, was in Bellefonte Thurs-
day of last week, to play the Mascot
club of this place, and are loud in their
praise of the kind and hositable manner
in which they were treated by the Mas-
cot club who they say fairly carried
them around in their efforts to make
their stay pleasant and agreeable. By
a very close shave victory went to the
Lock Haven club by a score of 15 to
14.
——Last Friday a number of the
friends of Mrs. Jane D. Leathers assem-
bled at the home of the venerable lady
at Mount Eagle, near Howard, to cele-
brate the 83d anniversary ot her birth.
They numbered about eighty who came
at the invitation of Mrs. Leathers’
children who intended to surprise their
mother. An elegant dinner was spread
in the barn at the old home. There
were short speeches, a brief religious
service and any amount of enjoyment.
——On Pennsylvania Reserve day,
at Gettysburg, September 2nd, addresses
will be delivered by ex-Governor Cur-
tin, who will speak of the ‘‘organization
of the Reserves ;”” Col. John H. Tag-
gert, who will have some things to say
about the “Commanders of the Re-
serves’; Gen, Robert A. McCoy, who
will tell of “the First Brigade at Get-
tysburg,” and Lieutenent W. H. Grier,
who will tell of the doings of the “Third
Brigade” in the same battle.
——Henry Garman, an old citizen of
Jersey Shore, was 84 years old last
week, and never smoked a cigar nor
chewed tobacco, and was. never intoxi-
cated nor did he ever play a game of
cards. The Herald states that he calls
‘the latter the ¢‘devil’s playthings,” and
says any person using any of his (the
devil's) tools will sooner or later lose his
property and character.
——Having perfected arrangemenst
for handling grain, we are prepared to
buy at our Bishop street warehouse all
| kinds of grain at market prices and
exchange flour for wheat.

Narrow EscAPE FROM DROWNING. —
George Connors, Misses Maggie Dono-
van and Julia McDonald went out on
the river last evening for a boat ride,
says the Renovo News of Saturday,
When the party was at a point just op-
posite Fifth street Mr Connors got on
the south shore and the ladies returned
across the river. They did not go far
out into the stream when their boat
lodged on a rock. Miss McDonald got
out on the rock to dislodge the boat, and
firding it too slippery to stand upon she
returned to the boat, and her friend sue-
ceeded in lauching itinto the water with
the use of one of the oars, but it shot
into the river so suddenly that it caused
Miss McDonald to be thrown out back-
wards into the water; it being very
deep she went far under the water and
when she came up she grabbed for the
boat but failed in the attempt, and
down she went again. ‘When
she came up the second time
she succeeded in catching hold of
the boat, and with great presence of
mind she sprung out of the water into
the boat and immediately fainted away
in Miss Donovan’s arms.
The boat floated down the stream un-
til Mr. Connors succeeded in getting an-
other boat and towed the young ladies
ashore, when they carried Miss McDon-
ald to her home a very weak but wiser
girl. The girls declare that if they ev-
er go boat riding with their gentlemen
friends again they will not undertake to
run away from them.
A FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT. — Early
last Sunday morning Edward Dixon,
assistant superintendent of the machine
rooms in the Lock Haven paper mill,
narrowly esc aped a frightful death, al-
though he sustained serious injuries.
He occasion to go back of a machine to
expand a pulley, and when he reached
for the same his feet slipped from under
him, and he threw out his left hand to
save himself his right arm was caught
by the large belt that runs the machine.
He was thus whirled around a large
pulley, which is within three; inches of
the floor, and struck the floor with great
foree, badly bruising him. His arm
was drawn between the wheel and floor
up to the shoulder, and when his shoul-
der was crushed in tight it stopped the
machine. At this time the unfortunate
man’s situation was discovered by his
helper, who ran at once and shut down
the large engine, and thus probably
saved Dr. Dixon's life, as he certainly
would have been crushed toa shapeless
mass had he been drawn bodily through
the three-inch space Letween the floor
and pulley. He was attended by Drs.
Armstrong and Watson who said they
did not there were any bones broken
‘When seen by a Democrat reporter, at
the residence of Lis father-in-law, Ed-
ward Moore, he seemed to suffer terri-
bly from the pains and had no use of or
feeling in his right arm and shoulder,
which were so badly crushed. His
right side was also badly hurt, while on
his head was a large lump where it
struck the floor.
Rare TREAT IN STORE For THOSE

above mentioned are practical farmers,
tilling their own farms. Of course all
officers of the State Grange will also be
present.
The entire grounds (over 25 acres)
will be thickly studded with large, airy
tents and buildings. A mammoth tent
has been offered free for the use of pub-
lic meetings. Upwards of 200 tents
have already been engaged. All tents
will be put up, floored and made ready
for occupancy by those engaging them.
There will be pyrotechnics, grand illum-

evening entertainments. Up to this
time it is-positive that the exhibits and
tent holders will be fully twice as num-
erous as they were last year. All pre-
vious records will be exceeded.
All trains stop directly in front of the
pie-nie grounds and half fares for round

road company.
Those desiring to engage tents should
address Capt. George M. Boal, Centre

to witness the ceremony. Abundant re-
freshments were served to which all did
ample justice, The gifts were numerous.
The happy couple will commence house-
keeping in the residence presented to the
bride by Mr. Riley.
——We had the plessare, recently, of
spending a few days ia the mountains
with the lugubrious scribe who edits
“Our That” column ir ene of our town
papers. The youth, as he might prop-
erly be called, was quite infatuated with
lifein the “heart of the Alleghenies,
twelve miles from a habitation of any
kind” and whiled most of his time
away at the table. One morning
he saliied forth with a pink sun-
bonnet and his socialist neck-tie on,
tooting a little tin bugle to scare away
the rattlers, to pick blackberries, which
he declared were growing there by the
thousands of bushels ; after an absence
of about four hours from camp ‘his gos-
sip” returned with a gill and a half of
berries and a face that looked like a tom
cat’s after it has gotten the worse of a
back fence scrap. Francis was highly
pleased with his venture and concluded
to tramp to the Moshannon in the after-
noon. This walk, a @istance of three
miles on a log-slide ,was anticipated with
so much pleasure that he for once quig
the table first, and so great was
his anxiety to go #hat he forgot
to take oft the bib which one of the par-
ty had kindly tied about his neck, So
he started down the slide, with all the
confidence of one born to such things.
It was not long, however, until Francis
began to realize that he was not ac-
customed to walking on elevated ways,
so he took a tumble and tried standing
on his head in a scrubeoak bush. Noth-
ing daunted, he proceeded to go through
the same caper about twenty times be-
fore his return. Upon arriving at the
house he found that his pedai extremi-
ties, not his head, as is usually the
case, had swelled so much that he
could not remove his boots, where-
upon he retired with them on. So if
you see him running around town this
week with a young lady’s boots on—
did we say ayoung lady’s? no it would
be a burlesque on even a Chicago girl's
foot to say that he could get them on—
the above will explain it, for we truly
believe that if the size of his feet de-
crease when swelled as slowly as his cran-
ium, he has them on yet.

Rax Away Wire A Corrse.—The
remains of a child named Fravel were
brought down from Oil City to Jersey
Shore station on Saturday, and from
thence were taken to Rauchtown, Clin-
ton county, where they were to have
been interred on Sunday. From Jersey
Shore station the remains were take n in
a one-horse spring wagon, with two men
on the driver’s seat. Just at the place
where the coffin was to be lifted out of
the wagon, the horse started to run
away. One of the men was in the act
of getting out of the wagon just as the
animal started, and the other jumped
out. But the horse got away from them
and broke the wagon and also the coffin
before it stopped. This necessitated
the postponement of the funeral for an-
other day. :
Mr. James Love, a prominent
citizen living near Tyrone, died last
Tuesday morning while in the act of
taking his breakfast. His death is at-
tributed to an affection of the heart.
He was the father of John G. Love,
Esq., of Bellefonte, and W. S. Love, of
State College, this county. His age
was 77 years and 28 days. He was a na-
tive of Philadelphia, coming to Storms-
town, in Half Moon Valley, Centre
county, in 1836, where he married Cath-
erine, daughter of John Gray. He
lived in Stormstown, carrying on the
tailoricg business successfully, to which
he added merchandizing, until 1856,
when be removed into the country and
laid out and established the village of
Loveville, in the south end of Half
Moon township. He remained there,
engaged successfully in farming and
mergchandizing, until the fall of 1881,
when he moved to the location near Ty-
rone] where he died. His wife died =a
little more than a yearago. He was a
man of excellent character and strong
personal traits.
——Charles Bennett, who escaped
from a friend’s house in Williamsport
last week while ill from fever, and
boarded a train, going to his home near
Jersey Shore, is dead. He never rallied
from the attack of illness, and it is sup-
p osed that the exposure incident to his
trip, hastened kis death.
