The wife of W. K. Taylor, of
Axorger HoNTINGDON FARMER
Commits Svicipe—W. R. Miller, a
resident of Dudley, Huntingdon county,
c¢r)mmitted suicide on Friday morning
by hanging. No cause for the commis-
sion of the act has as yet been discover-
ed Mr. Miller bal complained of a
severe headache, but he attended to his
work as usual and no uneasiness was
felt by his friends that he would under-
take to do violence to himself. Upon
arising Friday morning, Mrs. Miller
found that her husband had preceded
her down stairs, and she supposed that
he had gone to work. About half-past
8 o’clock she had occasion to go out to
the barn and, upon opening the door,
she found the lifeless body of her hus-
band hanging suspended by a rope,
which was attached to a rafter. The
distance from the barn floor to the roof
is not more than twelve feet, and, owing
to the noose end of rope approaching
close to the floor, Mr. Miller was obliged
to draw up his feet until life was extinct.
When found the body was in a kneeling
position. Itis believed that the unfor-
tunate man was seized with temporary
insanity. He was a brother of Jackson
Miller, present candidate on the Repub-
lican ticket for county commissioner,
and a son-in-law of ‘Squire John Mierly,
candidate on the Democratic ticket for
the same office. He was aged 32 years
and leaves a wife and one child.
Oxg or THE FINgesT.—The excel-
lence of Bellefonte stores has always
been a matter of much pride to our
citizens and the people of almost any
city take interest in the manage-
ment of such things where they are
encouraged by dealers whose only
efforts are put forth towards the satis-
fying of the demands of the public. In
the Rochester Clothing House Bellefonte
has one of the most complete stores in
central Pennsylvania. It has come, by
honest work, to be one of the leading
stores in our town. Its genial propri-
etor is ever on the look out to procure
for his trade only the latest styled, and
best goods, for the money, in the market.
By handling only first class articles he
has buit up, solely upon the merits of
his goods, a trade of which any mer-
chant might feel proud. If you live
in Bellefonte you can’t help being at-
tracted by the immense display of cloth-
ing and furnishing goeds at the Roches-
ter and if you are a visitor here you
should not lose the opportunity to call
and examine a stock which for general-
excellence cannot be surpassed.
ProrosITION TO PURCHASE A STEAM
Fire ExciNne.—There is an opportu-
nity to purchase a steam fire engine on
advantageous terms, and for the purpose
of arranging to secure an appliance which
will be of such grzat use to our town a
meeting of the Logan Hose Company was
held on Tuesday evening to devise a way
of raising the funds to purchase it. The
one whichthe company has the refusal
of for 20 days is warranted to be an ex-
cellent machine, in good order, and ca
pable of doing the work that was done by
the Tyrone steamer on the occasion of a
recent fire in this place. It will be nee-
essary to raise $900, of which the Lo”
gan Hose Company will give $100. A
committee, consisting of William T-
Hillibish, Frank Wescott and Charles
Heisler, was appointed to solicit sub
scriptions to the amount that is yet
needed.
QUEER REASON For WANTING A
PensioN.—A Lycoming county man
called on a Williamsport alderman, the
other day, and wanted to secure the ser-
yices of the man of law in getting a pen-
sion for him. When the alderman
came to question his client he found that
he had never been in the service,but was
applying for a pension on the strength of
having been drafted and paid $300 for
the privilege at staying of home. But
when almost everybody else is getting
pensions, why should not the commuta-
tion' men have a chance ?
AccIDENT AT HALE’S MiILL.—Last
Tuesday, while Mr. Adams, father of
the Democratic candidate for Commis-
sioner, of Boggs townships, was attend-
ing to the loading of his wagon at Hale
& Gerberich’s mill, an approaching train
scared his team. In his attempt to re-
strain them was thrown from his wag-
on, sustaining a fracture of several ribs,
and was otherwise severely bruised.
The horses ran away and wrecked the
wagon.
Bap TREATMENT OF A NORMAL
GRADUATE. —Mrs. Smith, wife of DF.
Smith, of Johnsonburg, who after a
married life of three months is now seek-
ing for a divorce, is a graduate of the
Lock Haven Normal School. She was
a popular teacher at Rolfe and is an es-
timable lady. Her husband, Dr. Smith,
eloped with Miss Attenberg, and the
scandal is fhe talk of the day in Elk
county.
Livery CoNTESTS IN RENovo.—

Evangelical church in Millheim, last
Monday evening. He intends going to
sail from New York on November 1.
sometime in a large New York mil-
linlry store acquainting herself with tiie

selected stock of millinery which she

———Mr. and Mrs. G. 8. Piefer, of
Pittsburg, who have spent two very
pleasant weeks in New York, Philadel-
delphia, Harrisburg and Bellefonte,
have returned home, taking with them
Mrs. Pipher’s sister, Miss Carrie, young
est daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. K.
Hoy. Miss Carrie expects to attend
I school in Pittsburg this winter. We
wish hera pleasant time and much
success.
The attraction at the Opera
House to-night will be, without doubt,
the best one that will this season. Mr.
James Reilly and his company have
received most flattering press notices in
almost every city in which they have
played. Asa German commedian he
is said to be the equal of Fritz’ Emmet
and as a yoddler he has no peer. His
play, the Broom Maker of Carlsbad,
gives every opportunity for the display
of talent. You will miss’ ore of the
prettiest and purest plays you have ever
had a chance to see if you don’t go to-
night.
Mr. Arthur Brown, son of Ed-
ward Brown, and a highly esteemed
young citizen of this place, died at his
residence on South Allegheny street, on
Wednesday evening, of consumption, a
disease with which he had been afflicted
for a long time, although, until recently,
it did not interfere with his being about
and attending to his business. He was
active in his business habits and owned
considerable property. His religious
convictions strongly attached him to the
Catholic church. He was about 35
years of age and leaves a wife and a
a number of children. As a member
of the community he was useful and re-
spected, and will be missed by the peo-
ple of this town.
Mr. Jesse linger, well known
in Bellefonte as an old and skillful
blacksmith, died at his residence on
West High street, last Wednesday
morning, after a very brief illness.
Last Friday he was taken sick,
and he was confined to his bed a
few days, but none expected a
fatal termination to his illness, as he had
always previously enjoyed good health.
He was a man of large stature and vig-
orous constitution. Mr. Klinger was a
prominent member of the Reformed
church. He was about 73 years old,
and leaves a wife and a number of
children to mourn the loss of one who
was a useful citizen and worthy of the
respect of the community in which
he lived.
What a hustling around there is
when a millionaire gets sick and is in
danger of dying. On the occasion of
the recent illnessoi Mr. W.L. Scott there
was unusual dispatch in getting the as-
sistance of the best medical aid, as
would appear from the following in a
Renovo payer: John Kepperly had
charge of the engine on the aniddle di-
vision of the special train which car-
ried Dr, Pepper on his way to Erie, to
Hon. W. L, Scott’s bedside. The time
made by Mr. XKepperly is said
to be the fastest on record on the
division. The trip was made in the
morning from Renovo to Kane in 2
hours and 30 minutes ; and in the even-
ing the special was brought back to
Renovo from Kane in 2 hours and 15

ParrisoN Ar Lock HAVEN, — Ex-
Gov. Pattison, in company with ex
Lieut. Governor Black, W. U. Hensel,
esqr., and other prominent Democrats, is
now making a tour of the northwestern
counties of the State, to greet and speak
to the thousands of his fellow citizens of
both parties; who are going to overthrow
bossism in this state at the next election.
On Monday the distinguished party
passed up the P. & E. railroad and made
a short stop at Lock Haven.
est ex-Governor met with an enthusias-
tic reception from the large crowd at the
station that had collected to welcome
him. His stop at Lock Haven was
brief, as he intends to return and ad-
dress the people there on the 7th inst.
In speaking of the ex-Governor’s ap-
pearance the Lock Haven Democrat of
Monday, says : Mr. Pattison is indeed a
very fine looking man, fully six feet
high and perhaps a trifle over, splendid-
ly proportioned and straight as an In-
dian. He is dark complexioned, with
black hair, mustache closely trimmed,
and was dressed in a suit of dark mate-
rial that fitted his noble form to perfection
His eyes are dark and piercing and his
manners are easy and graceful. He is
the beau ideal of a Governor, or Presi-
dent either, for that matter, and the
voter who after seeing him should then
go and vote for insignficant Delamater,
would only show his utter lack of taste
and inability to admire physical beauty
and perfected manhood.
IT WiLL BE BuiLt.—The Du Bois
Express has it from what is considered
a strictly reliable source; that the rail-
road link from Oil City to Clearfield,
‘| connecting the Beech Creek with the
Lake Shore Railroad,and thus complet-
ing the short line between New York
and Chicago, will be built before 1892.
Chief Engineer Hamilton, who in the
employ of the Vanderbilt corporation
is pushing this road, arrived at Du Bois
last week with Mr. McPherson, of War-
ren. They were met by Engineer E.
C. Reed, of Clearficld, their object, as
stated last week, being to make a pre-
liminary survey from that place to
Clearfield.
About ninety miles of rond will have
to be built to close up the gapand it
would be pretty safe to bet ‘maney that
a big lot of Clearfield county people will
go to the World’s Fair over the road.
TuE Boss Bass.—Thursday afternoon
Frank Kemerer, a Renovo boy, beat the
record by catching a black bass which
measured twenty inches in length. The
News says the boy hauled the mam-
moth fish out of the river along the
bank opposite Seventh street, on the
south side. The bait used was a black
cricket. Frank was unable to pull the
bass out in the usual way, but had to
drag it up the bank. This is the largest
bass caught in this section this season,

Young Mr. Andrew Cruse, who

Gov. PATrisoN IN BELL¥FONTE.—

pluadits of his fellow citizens, will visit

umn.
Andy Weaver, the husband of
Fietta, who is now in the penitentiary

applied for a marriage license on the
ground that her imprisonment had di-
vorced him from Fietta.

——The following complaint comes
from Jersey Shore ; A few days ago
two young ladies of this place met with
a rather peculiar treatment at the Cens
tral State Normal School, Lock Haven.
They desired to be shown, through the
new building and were left in the recep-
tion room by an attendant; who said he
would return in a few minutes to guide
them, Instead of returning as he prom-
ised, the fellow left they ladies wait for
an hour or so, after which the ywere
compelled to leave without the pleasure
they had anticipated.
DEATH oF MRS. CURTIN.—Mrs. John
Curtin, an old, well known and highly
respected lady of this place, died at her
residence on Linn street, last Friday
morning. She had been in a feeble
condition for some time, her debility re-
sulting chiefly from the effects of old
age. The deceased was ‘a daughter of
Hon. Henry Barnhart, and was born in
1811 om the farm in Spring township
which is still known as the Barnhart
property. On her mother’s side she was
the grand daughter of John Holl, a
Revolutionary soldier. She was mar-
ried in 1836 to John Curtin. After her
marriage she resided at Martha Furnace
until 1848, when her husband moved to
Roland, where they remained until 1874,
after’'which time they lived in Bellefonte.
Mrs. Curtin had five children, four
of whom survive lier. They are Mrs.
Gen. John I. Curtin, of Bellefonte; Mrs.
Dr. Larrimer, Omaha; Henry Curtin,
of Roland, and John G. Curtin, of Phil-
adelphia. A’ son William, died a
