young gentlemen Wwko escorted two
and had a royal time. When an oppor-

A VEeNerABLE Crock.—We were
recently shown one of the old “Grand-
father’s Clocks” by Mr. D.T. Meyer,
which is a unique relic of the eighteenth
centary. The clock, which is eight feet
high, was built in Aaronsburg, Centre
county, in 1782, and has been keeping
correct time eversince. ‘The pendulum
is two and a haif feet long and the
weights weigh twelve and thirteen
pounds. The clock has an interesting
history and is prized very highly by the

Bic RA1LRoAD Pronic.—The biggest
railroad picnic that was ever held in
this part of the State came off at Nip-
pono park last Saturday. The Renovo
News speaking of it, says : Besides the
2,200 tickets which bave been sold in
Renovo, we are reliably informed that
there were 2,300 tickets sold to the em-
ployes of the Sunbury shops, who joined
our people at the pienic. This made
a grand total of 4,500 P. & E. railroad
employes alone, not speaking of all the
{he outsiders who attended.
ParroN’s Pro-Nic.—The Patrons of
Husbandry are making very extensive
preparations for their 17th annual Pic-
nic and Exhibition to be held in the
Grange Park, near Centre Hall, on the
Lewisburg & Tyrone railroad, during
the week of the 15th to 20th of Septem-
ber.
The accommodations will far surpass
those of former years. Upwards of five
acres will be under roof and canvas.
Over twenty-five acres will be devoted
to camping and exhibition purposes.
There will be pyrotechnic displays and
grand illuminations at night under
competent management.
A large canvas tent with seating ca-
pacity for several thousands, for public
meeting, will be an attraction. The at-
tendance promises to be larger than
that of last year, which exceeded 15,000
people. Upwards of 200 tents are al-
ready engaged and arrangements have
been made for any number of tents
wanted. But to insure tent accommo-
dations arrangements should be made
in advance with Capt. G. M. Boal, Cen-
tre Hall, Pa. All tents will be floored.
Price of 9x10 foot tent, $2.50. Par-
ties can get as many tents as may be
wanted and locate in groups, if prefer-
red ; butmust furnish their own mat-
tresses, blankets and camp outfits.
The number of agricultural implements
offered for exhibition is already double
that of last year, and ample railroad
siding will be provided to handle heavy
machinery. All exhibits will be return-
ed free of charge, the exhibitor paying
the freight one way. Ample water sup-
ply to run steam engines and ma-
chinery.
All trains will stop on the grounds,
and a railroad office will be opened for
the accommodation and inform ation of
the people. A train dispatcher will be
on the grounds to insure prompt moving
of trains. Trains will be run’every few
hours for the convenience of those com-
ing or leaving.
Railroad tickets will be sold to the
public, without ticket orders, at one fare
for the round trip, good for one week,
over the Lewisburg & Tyrone, Bald
Eagle Valley and Pennsylvania rail-
roads between Harrisburg and William-
sport, Lock Haven and Tyrone, Lewis-
burg and Sunbury. Tickets will be
sold on ticket orders, at one fare for the
round trip, over all the Pennsylvania
system of railroads, good from Friday,
Sept. 12, until Monday, Sept. 22.
These orders can be had by addressing
the chairman, Leonard Rhone, Centre
Hall, Pa. :
Large and handsome exhibition sta-
bling will be put up for horses and. cat-
tle, securely covered, with a separate
building for feed and outfit, in charge

| Tug PromisirioN COUNTY CoNVEN-
_110N.—The convention held by the
Prohibitionists of Centre county on
: Thursday of last week, in the arbitration
room in the Court House, was a small
| but very respectable gathering. Its
object was to appoint delegates to the ’
' State convention which meets in Harris- :
turg this week, and to nominate a
county ticket. Rev. 'W. L. Hayden !
was elected President. and Rev. G. W. i
Emenheiser, Secretary. A committee ;
on resolutions was appointed as follows :
i F. P. Green, W. W. Cadie, Edward ,
Cain, H. P. Sankey, and Z. W. Parker.
A finance committee was appointed
which secured pledges to the amount of |
$68 for the purpose of carrying on the :
campaign, a modest amount which will
not admit of much expenditure in the |
way of boodle.
The following gentlemen were elect- |
{ ed as delegates to the State convention : !
| W. L. Hayden, H. P. Sankey, D. M. |
| Lieb, Walter Gray, J. Zeigler, Chas. E.
| Murray, Wm. J. Dale, and W. T.]
| Bair.
i The nominations for county officers |
| were made by acclamation as follows :
{ For A%embly D. M. Lieb and Isaac |
. Gruss ; Sheriff, James A, Zimmerman ;
Treasurer, Wm. J. Dale; Register, J.
| Dale ; Recorder, Jarcd Harper ; Com-
missioners, H. P. Sankey and John W.
Parker; Auditor, Walter M. Gray.
J. Ziegler and Wm. Miller were
| chosen members of the State Central
| Committee, J. Ziegler as chairman of
| the county committee, and A. J. Cook |
treasurer for the campaign.
The committee on resolutions reported |
the following.
Waereas, Civil government is ordained of
God “for the punishment of evildoers and for
the praise of them that do well, and the fun-
damental principle of goed government is pro- i
tection for the right and prohibition for the |
wrong ; and.
Waeress, The recent report of the Com-
mittee of Congress on the Alcoholic Liquor
Traffic read by Hon. J! D. Taylor confirms the
indictment of the liquor trafficand declares it
«causes fourfifths of the crime committed,
wastes one half of the taxation, causes the ex-
penditure of $00,000,000 a year in drink, in-
capaciates mentally and physically 590,000 peo
ple for labor and business, and causes three’
fourths of the pauperism of the country,and is
responsible for the fearful increase of insanity
and imbecility end does no good to anybody”
therefore.
Resolved—1st. That the Prohibition party
should favor all judicious legislation to pro-
tect the homes, the sacred rights and the in-
dustrial interests of the whole people and
should persistently oppose drinking saloons as
! the enemy of all righteousness, of the divine !
+ institutions of family,church and state ; unnec
essary taxation oppressive to the laboring-
elasses ; combines or trusts as enriching the |
few and impoverishing the masses; and all
election frauds, whether by bribery, intimida-
tlon, trickery, dishonest returns or in any oth-
er way, as corrupting the fountain head and
hence all the currents of political life and pow-
er, and thus sapping the foundations of repre-
sentative government.
Resolved —2nd. That it is the paramount
duty of good government in the State and
Nation to prohibit the drink traffic in all its
forms as the giant crime of crimes against
society, by the most stringent legislation sanc™
tioned by the most effective penalties.
Resolved—3rd, That the prohibitionists of
Centre county call upon all good citizens, and
especially professing christians, to rid them-
selves of all responsibility for the drink curse
by ceasing to sustain parties that either silent,
ly acquiesce in this monstrous crime, or op-
enly declare in favor of continuing the iniqi
tous business under a license system.
Resolved—4th. That the most energetic and
persevering effort should be made to so in”
crease the prohibition vote this fall that it will
be a trumpet blast of coming doom to the old
rum-ruled political parties in the C ommon-
wealth of Pennsylvania.
CounciL MEETING—At the meeting
of council on Monday evening the W.
CO. T. U. looked after the wellfare of the
green angel that surmourts the fountain
in front of the Court House with a pe-
tition that it be given a fresh coat of
paint, and they also asked that the
streets and pavements be cleaned up.
The appropriate committees were direct-
ed to attend to the subjects of this peti-
tion.
The Street committee reported that
the probable cost of constructing a sew-
er along Burroughs alley and down
Spring street to Lamb, would be about
$1500. The report was referred back
to the committee with the request to find
out and report the cost of a terra cotta
sewer and the difference between such a
one and a stone sewer.
A petition of thirteen property owners
on East High street for the extention of
the water pipes out that thoroughfare
was referred to the water committee for
investigation and report.
In regard to an application for the
opening of a street from Bishop to Cur-
tin at the eastern limits of this
borough, council ordered that when
the borough solicitor shall have
obtained the necessary action of the
court, the borough engineer shall go
to work and lay out a street trom Bishop
to Curtin and all the streets running east
and west be opened up to the said cross
street, when appraisers will be appointed
to assess the damages and the whole
will then be legally opened up by an or-
dinance passed by the council.
AWeicaTY BABY.—The Philipsburg
Ledger states that the wife of Captain
Harry Simler of that place gave birth a
few days ago to a boy baby that
weighed 16} pounds. Captain Simler is
the officer who arrested Andrews at
} Brisbin for the murder of Clara Price.
——The Tyrone daily Herald says.—
Contractor Tate, of Belleionte, has
withdrawn his bid for the building of
the annex to the Presbyterian church
and the building committee has decided |
the erection until pexi
to postpone
spring.
The Philipsburg Wage Earner’s
Journal says: “There is considerable
talk in town amorg the Pattison Repub-
licans of starting an independent Patti-
son Republican club. There are a large
number of Republicans in town who
have signified their willingness to take
an active part in such an organization.”
——Mr. Samuel Bressler, an old and
highly respected resident of Pennsylva-
nia Furnace, dropped in to see us on
Monday and subscribed for the WarcH-
MAN. A remarkable circumstance con-
nected with his visit was the fact that
it was the first time he had been in
Bellefonte in nineteen vears.
——Misses Mary Desmond and
Frances Bruner, of Renovo, have enter-
ed the convent of the Sisters of Mercy
at Harrisburg. The Renovo News
speak of the young ladies as being in-
telligent and well fitted for the life upon
which they have entered. Both are ac-
complished musicians.
— Dr. Brockerhoff, of Pittsburg,
accompanied by his mother, Mrs, Brock-
erhoff, of this pluce, and Miss Gussie
Krider, will start for Europe this week,
it being their purpose to visit England,
Scotland, France, Spain, Germany, It-
aly, and other parts of the continent.
Miss Krider will remain for some time
to attend a school near Brussels

Their primaries, which
were slimly attended, there having been
Jess interest taken in them than had
peen displayed for some years past The
gathering of the delegates on Tuesday
showed the same lack of interest and
spirit. There was nothing in the move-
ments of those in attendance to indicate
that they entertained a hope of success.
Chairman Brown called the conven-
tion to order and a permanant organiza=-
tion was effected by electing W. I.
Swoope, esq., chairman ; J. M. Dale,
reading clerk, and George I. Johnson,
of Beliefonte, and Captain Bogert, of
Snow Shoe, Secretaries.
Upon taking the chair Mr. Swoope
immediately proceeded to give the con-
vention a specimen of his oratory. He
is a young man who can make a speech
upon the “slighest provocation,” and
he never misses an opportunity of let-
ting off his oratorical pyrctechnics. He
spoke of the glorious past of the Repub-
lican party, but insisted that it wasn’t
necess ary for the G. O. P. to live on its
past record, as it was at the present time
doing business at the old stand in saving
the country. He pointed with pride to
the protection it was affording the work-
ing men by a tariff that was enriching
the monopolists, and his bosom swelled
with emotion when he contemplated the
purity of the ballot box which the old
party intended to secure by the use of
the bayonet, He didn’t exactly state itin
these terms, but that was what he
meant. After the youthful chairman
had gotten off his speech, which bore all
the evidences of careful preparation, the

burst, a portion of the cylinder strik-
ing him and one of the spikes penectrat-
ing to his lungs, and he was also injur-
ed about his abdomen by one of the
flying fragments. His injury was very
| serious, but he is likely to recover.
— One day last week, Miss Cron-
over, of this place, while visiting friends
in Brush Valley, had a rather exciting
rattlesnake experience. While picking
huckleberries on themountain she found
herself dangerously near a rattlesnake-
The snake was dispatched by the com-
bined efforts of the party that was with
her, and it was found to measure five
feet in length and had twelve rattlers,
‘We are under obligations to the
Altoona Driving Park and Exhibit As-
socition for a kind invitation to be pres-
ent at the fall meet on the 10, 11, 12
and 13th of September. From the score
card and list of prizes accompanying
the invitation we form the opinion
that the trotting and running races
will be the finest seen in this part of
the state ; the classes being rated down
as low as 2-25. The meeting will
doubtless be a great success.
—Tusseyville and vicinity, in this
county, has been visited by a scourge of
sickness. Within six weeks ten deaths
have occurred, six of them from typhoid
fever. They were John H. Wagner,
Elizabeth G. Wagner, Susan B. Wag-
ner, Mrs. Ellen Slack, John K. Wagner
and Michael Pauley. There were at
last accounts still several cases of fever
in the neighborhood, "What cause there
is for this local affliction has not been as-
certained.
— The young men at Pleasant
View (formerly Yocum school distrjet)
have organized a band. To assure suc-
cess financially they have procured a
gold waich and chain, and a gold head-
ed cane, now on exhibition in Frank |
Blair's window, to be chanced off, the
proceeds to go for the benefit of the
band. They also propose holding a fes-
tival at said school house on Friday and
Saturday evenings, Sept. 5th and 6th
to which they invite the public.
——The Newton Hamilton camp-
meeting, which began last week and
which is in charge of Presiding Elder
M. K. Foster, is more largely attended
this year than ever before. There are
about 200 more tent holders on the
grounds than on any former occasion.
The m'nisters present are Revs. M. K.
Foster, B. B. Hamlin, George Leidy, J.
Cunes, R. F. Wilson, George Guyer, A .
Miller, A. W. Decker and Morehead.
Rev. Foster preached the opening
sermon. It will continue this week.
SoMETHING LiKE A CYCLONE AT
Sxow Smor.—On Tuesday afternoon
Snow Shoe was visited by a severe
storm the track of which was near the
town line, and almost directly in it was
the barn and house of Joseph Hartzell,
located on what is known as the Kreid-
er farm. The barn was totally destroy-
ed and part of the house was blown
away. Mr. Hartzell was near thé barn
but escaped injury. His family, the
members of which were in the house,
took refuge in the cellar and thus saved
their lives. The force of the storm was
terrific. = Large trees were uprooted and
torn from the ground, and evidences of
the wind’s fury could be seen for a dis-
‘tance of three miles along the railroad
track.
A committee on resolutions and one_
on credentials were appointed. The nom
ination of candidates for the different
offices was then in order and commenced
with the Legislature. A.A. Dale, of
Bellefonte, Guyer Mattern, of Patton
township, and Charles L. Fryberger, of
Philipsburg, were named. It took but
one ballot to finish this business. It
never takes long to comple‘e a pre-ar-
ranged programme. Al Dale didn’t suit
the interests that have the management
of Republican politics in this county,
and therefore it wouldn’t do to make
him one of the nominees, It is true, he
is a reputable and intelligent man, pos-
sessing qualities of character and educa-
tion that would fit him for the position
of : Assemblyman, but his name didn’t
fit the slate. It had been arranged that
Mattern and Fryberger should be the
nominees and there was no difficulty in
carrying out the arrangement. The
vote stood Dale, 38 ; Mattern 108 ; Fry-
berger 78, which made Mattern and
Fryberger the nominees.
There was just as little difficulty on
the Sheriff question. The candidates
named for nomination were John A
‘Wolf, of Philipsburg ; H, H. Montgom-
ery, of Bellefonte, and John Dubbs, of
Spring township. One ballot was all
that was necessary to nominate Wolf,
as follows : Wolf, 66; Montgomery
26; Dubbs, 18. The nominee had bu,
. t
recently been sprung into the canvass
but he was on the slate and easily car-
ried off the prize, such as it was, Aftep
the Democratic nominations he thought
he saw a chance of an election Jand put
himself forward as a candidate, and as
he suited Brown and the other mana-
gers, word was sent out during the week
‘before the primaries that he should be
the nominee. Capt. Montgomery had
honestly and earnestly entered into a
canvass and conducted it. zealously for
a number of months before the meeting
of the convention. He has always been
a faithful member of his party, is noted
for his sobriety and general good char-
acter, and his long experience as consta-
ble fitted him for the duties of the
Sheriff's office, but he was sacrificed to
the supposed superior availability of
Wolf on account of locality, and at the
order of those who manipulate the ma-
chine. Mr. Dubbs was subjected to
imilar treatment.
The balloting for Treasurer was short
and decisive. The candidates were
Riley Pratt, of Unionville, and Edward
Tyson, of Philipsburg, and the nomina-
tion of the latter was made by the. fol-
lowing vote: Pratt 88; Tyson 8L.
This was the third inning for the town
of Philipsburg and was greeted with
exultant howls from the delegates from
that neighborhood.
For Recorder the names of John F.
Harter, of Millheim, and John F.
Payne, of College township, were pre-
sented, the former being nominated by
he following vote: Harter 89; Payne
33.
The chance of getting at least one
Commissioner under the provision of
the law had the effect of bringing out a
big array of candidates for that office,
the following names being presented .
J. B. Stover, of Bellefonte; D. B.
‘Kunes, of Liberty township ; John E..
Murry, of College township ; Daniel P
Shope, of Boggs ; Austin Curtin, of
Boggs ; J. A. McClintic, of Gregg;
James B. Strohm, of Potter ; John D.
Decker, of Potter, and Henry Stevens
of Half Moon. The large number of as-
pirants caused protracted balloting, but
the nominations were made by Strohm
having 63 on the third ballot, and
Kunes 64 on tbe sixth ballot,
For Register Geo. W. Fisher,
James M. Leitzell and J. H. Oliger
were named, Fisher getting most of the
votes on the first ballot.
For Auditor W. B. Krape, of Spring
Mills and Samuel F. Gray, of Patton
township, wers nominated on the sec-
ond baliot.
Benjamin Rich, of Unionville, John
P. Harris, of Bellefonte, and William
P. Shoope, of Centre Hall, were chosen
for congressional conferrees, and J. H.
Odenkirk ,of Potter township; J. A.
Fiedler, of Bellefonte, and M. F. Rid-
dle, of Pleasant Gap, for senatorial con-
ferrees. John M. Dale, of Bellefonte,
was elected chairman of the county com-
mittee.
The refolutions indulged in the usual
rot about the great and glorious prinei-
ples of the Republican party ; the pro-
tection which the tariff afforded the
working people,and it even endorsed the
villainy of controlling the elections by
means of the bayonet. It approved of
Harrison’s policy as President, and con-
tained a humorous paragraph about the
upright,intelligent and patriotic admin-
istration of Governor Beaver.
UspErR NEW MANAGEMENT.—For
several years past rumors have been
afloat regarding the intended purchase
from Long Bros. of the cave and hotel,
and the last few days has developed still
another, though as to its foundation we
cannot say if correct or not. Mr. George
Brandon, of the Brockerhoff House,
Bellefonte, it is reported, has been ne-
gotiating for the property for some time
lately, and at last has secured the con-
sent of the present owners to sell to him,
though nothing further has been done
in the matter until Mr. Brandon had
consulted with the parties whom he re-
presents. The price we believe asked
for the cave is $12,000, including the
the hotel building and several acres of
land.
The place is a bonanza for some party
of the right strips and we think Mr,
Brandon is fully capable of taking
charge of it. It will be run on a mod-
ern scale and a prominent resort made
of it. No finer location could be wish-
ed for,and under good management will
prove a paying investment for the right
parties.—Centre Reporter.
