Diep AT THE AGE oF NINETY.—
Mrs. Turner, widow of James Turner,
died at her residence on Bishop street, |
in this place, on Friday morning, in the |
ninetieth year of her age. This vener-
able lady had always been a resident of
Centre county. She was the daughter
of Thomas McClellan and was born in
this piace in 1801, her parents at that
time residing in a house that was locat-
ed on the site on Allegheny street that
is now occupied by the Parrish drug
store in the McAlister stone building:
Bellefonte had then been settled but a
shert time and the surrounding country |
was but little better than a wilderness. |
The family afterwards lived in a build-
ing that occupied the site of Lyon &
Co’s store on Allegheny street.
husband died in 1870, since which time
she lived in the house on Bishop street |
in which she died.
She was the mother of six children,
all but one of whom are living. Thom-
as who is a resident of Chicago, came on |
to attend the funeral; Mrs. Matilda O’-
Bryan, who lives in Michigan, was
with her mother at the time of her death; |
William is a resident of St. Louis ;
Mrs. Debora Thompson resides in Chi-
cazo; Mrs. Charles Cooke, who was
with her mother when she died, lives in
Johnstown, and James died in New
Mexico many years ago. It is seldom
that a family of children are so widely
scattered. Mrs. Turner was a lifelong
and devoted Presbyterian, and was
the oldest member of the Presbyterian
church of this place.

i A Charley Ross Romance That Ended
in a Happy Reunion.
Morning, Ill, Aug. 20.—Over forty
years ago there vecurred at Elmira, N.
t Y., an abduction that in matter of local
interest fairly rivaled the famous case of
{ Charley Ross. The victim of this out-
, rage was Hiram, the eight-year old son
, of Mr. Rolert Gregg.
An old gypsy-like hag named Debby
Blood met some men in the road near
¢ where the little boy was stinding one
day, and for some trivial reason gave
them a round cursing. The child re-
proved her for ber wickedness, whereup-
on she turned upon him and told him
that he would either kill him or break
On the sixth day of last February it was our |
more agreeable.
bis heart. Soon after thisshe stole him
and, with a vicious character named
Lockery, fled to Hudson, Wis. Thence
they went to Catfish Bay, and afterward
to Richmond, in the same State. Par
of the time they led a shiftless, nomadic
life, and prr of it they farmed on a mis-
erable lit 1 ¢'earing,
The boy was made to believe that
Debby Blood was his mother and Lock-
ery his stepfather, and that his own
name was Gage. Gradually his recol-
lection of the old home and his family
faded away and he accepted the tales
told him as the truth. He was cruelly
used. Hard work and maltreatment
were his lot, and several times the vira-
go who stole him tried to poison him,
but he lived through it all, and finally,
about fifteen years years ago, he was
married to an estimable young woman
and made his home at Richardson, Oak
county , Wis. Upon this Debby Blood
disappeared, vowing she would never be
seen or heard from any more, and so far
has kept her word.
After years of fruitless search for their
lost child the Greggs moved to the West,
settling pear this place. No tidings
came from the lost one, and all hope of
seeing him again was abandoned. A
short time ago, however, accident led
persons living here to believe that
Hiram Gregg was still alive. Investi-
gation led to certainty, and to-day the
lost boy, now a man with gray hair, was
restored to the mother who has mourn-
ed for him till the grave had almost
opened at her feet. It was an affecting
union.
For Ladies with Bald Heads.
Baldness is a rare infirmity among
ladies. Doubtless one reason is hecause
they are their own hair-dresserss. Oc-
casionally the hair falls out from severe
fevers, as typhoid, but it is usually re-
stored without treatment. Some ladies
seem to have inherited a tendency to
baldness. Thinning out of the hair also
occasionally occurs in consequence of
constitutional ill health. Probably no
better ‘hair restorer’” has been found
than cactharides. A simple, and per-
haps as good as any other application,
is made with one ounce of the tincture
of cantharides, four ounces of bay rum
and ten ounces of water. This should
be well rubbed into the sealp every day.
Quinine has some repute as a hair tonic.
The usual proportions are two drachms
to a pint of water. Common water may
be used. The mixture may be made up
by a draggist, who will need to add a
little diluted sulphuric acid, and a few
drops of some perfume oil will render it
It would be well, also,
to add to each pint of the mixture
two or three ounces of glycerine. Apply
this tonic once or twice a day. A rapid
gain must never be expected from the
use of any hair restorative. Even the
best of them are not likely to have any
noticeable cffect until after they have
been persisted in for several months.—

Essay—By a Husband.
I hate door-mats. Always stumbling
over them. Had a glorious rain last
night; and when I came in the house
this noon with the five dogs at my heels,
Jane called out, “wipe your feet,Joseph,
Ann has just wiped the floor.” What
do we keep a girl for ? Does Jane think
for an instant I would care to track up a
dirty floor? Goodness no. Give me
the floor just mopped and I wiil pring
my coat of arms from one end of it to
the other, and let the dogs fill up the
chincks. Bless dogs, anyway; with
their playful little diggigs and scratch-
ings and frisky bowwows. Such com-
pany for a man. Jane hates dogs.
Flies ? Why, I often leave the din-
ing-room door open on purpose to let
the little creatures come in. Itis a fal-
lacy that flies love heated better than
pleasantly cool rooms. No such thing.
When I open the door you should see
them swarm in; cuddle . among the
portiere curtisn, playing tag on the
new ceiling, dancing upon the sugar
bowl—happy little things. One lit on
my nose at the dinner table, and rather
than disturb him I kept perfectly still,
not daring to chew the beef stake I held
in my mouth. Tears fairly rolled down
my cheeks. By and by he, supposing
Jane and I were one, no doubt,
lit on the nose of us; and when I called
my wife a goose for slapping at him, she
said something real pert and lett the
table. Jane can’t abide flies.
Next thing she was brushing up little
heaps of cigar ashes and burnt matches
I had carefully scattered over the carpet
the evening before. Good for moths, |
you know. Jane says there are no
moths in the house, and the ashes make
the carpet grimy. Poor Jane !
I took the cat upstairs yesterday and
laid her on the spare bed. Dear little
kit-kat. She did so enjoy Jane’s satin
quilt. Cats like neat, soft places where
they can lie and sleep. It did my soul |
good to hear her purr, and see her claw |
at the quilt, just as though she was
kneading bread. Jane drove her off.
She don’t even like cats.
Poor Jane! She is quite a bore at
times.
The Prohibition Platform.
The appended extrast is a synopsis of
the platform of the Prohibition party
adopted at Harrisburg last week. It
deals with a number of things outside of
prohibition, among which are the fol-
lowing. It recognizes God as the
source of all power and authority in
human government; declares that the
drink trafficis a menace to American
institutions and should be prohibited by
laws faithfully enforced ; 1s opposed to
any legalization of the traffic in intoxi-
cating liquors as a beverage; demands
the preservation of the Sabbath and the
enforcement of laws for its observance;
endorses the national platform of 1888;
favors a pure ballet and the Australian
system of voting; suggests an edu-
cational qualification of voting; re-
commends the amendment of the natur-
alization laws with a view to increasing
the number of years’ residence of for-
eigners before giving them the right to
vote; declares against foreign pauper
labor ; opposes trusts and unlawful com-
binations ; favors protection as embed-
ied in the principle of reciprocity as a
means of relieving agricultural depres-
sion ; favors equal taxation on all classes
of property producing revenue to the
owner; declares arbitration the true
method for adjusting differences between
capital and lato:,and prohibition the sur-
est preventive of strikes and lockouts ;
points with pride to the public schools ;
declares that the suppression of the
applications to
liquor traffic ‘is the dominant political
issue in State and Nation, and invite all
who agree on this issue to vote with the
Probibition party for the complete de-
struction of the liquor traffic.”
Trading With Labor.
Philadelphia Times.
Of course Quay will trade with the
organizations of the State to elect Dela-
mater. He has always traded with
them ; he has sustained labor newspa-
pers; paid labor leaders, and always
bad a commercial labor contingent |
ready for every emergency, and he won't ,
be without it this year, only it will
probably have more leaders and fewer
tollowers than usual.
The rumor «f an attempted deal with
the Knights of Labor by giving them
the whole nine Factory Inspectors au-
thorized by the last Legislature won’t
wash. The law was a transparent
fraud practiced upon the labor organ-
izations, The party leaders, fearing
the workingmen, passed the bill creating
Factory Inspectors; then, fearing the
factory owners, and knowing that la-
ber could be more easily’ cheated than
employers, they made the law nugatory
by refusing to make appropriations for
the salaries of the Inspectors.
William H. Martin, of Chesier, was
one of the square men in the move-
ment and he was finally appointed
Chief Factory Inspector (agreeing to
serve without pay until the next Legis-
lature meets), to quiet the labor erup-
tion that surged against the party lead-
ers when the cheat was discovered ; and
it is purposed to retire Martin as a
special Custom House officer and trade
the whole nine Factory Inspectors to
the Knights of Labor as the price of the
labor vote for Delamater.
There are several serious if not in-
superable obstacles to this proposed
deal. First, the Knights of Labor are
not likely to trade with leaders who so
basely cheated them once ; second, the
workingmen of the State are not in the
political market for boodle or promises
this year ; and third, nobody nor any
combination of people could transfer the
labor vote of the State to any candidate
or party.
There will be plenty of labor trading,
and a number of off-color labor traders
will get their boodle, but the great mass
of the industry voters of the State, in
field, in shop, in mine and in forest,
will vote to smite the taxbreeders who
are now crushing labor to pay the con-
tract price of monopoly greed.
