SPECIAL NOTICE.—As I contem-
plate a change in my business, by the
1st of March, I now offer my entire

humbug, but a straight offer.

success ful.
—— Mr. John Alexander, of Union-
ville, will sell a lot of household goods,
platform scales, rifle, wagon and other
articles at public sale, on Tuesday Dec-
ember 19th, at 1 o’clock.
Mrs. Thomas Kelley, who is sup-
posed to have been insane, committed
sucide by hanging at Kane on Friday
night. She was the mother of six child-
ren and her husband is a railroad em-
ploye.
Bellefonters will be interested in
knowing that Mr. and Mrs. C. U. Hof-
fer, formerly of our town, but now of
Philipsburg, are the happy parents of a
young daughter. It arrived one day
last week.
——Mr. Harry Cooke, one of Belle-
fonte’s finest looking and most affable
young gentlemen, who is now engaged
in extensive coal operations at Wood-
land, Cleartield county, is at home for a
few days.
——This is the last time we shall be
able to tell; the people of Pine Grove
Mills and vicinity what they will miss
if they let the opportunity of attending
the Musical Convention, which will be
held in their town next week.
‘What human beasts and fiends
there are in this world. On Monday one
Thomas Clark, of South Williamsport,
was arrested for an outrageous assault
on his own little daughter and bratally
attacking and beating his wife.
——A serious freight wreck occurred
in the Renovo yards on Saturday morn-
ing last. The failure of a switchman to
tend to his business caused one train to
crash into the front of another wrecking
about eleven cars and injuring three
men.
At Williamsport one day within
the last week in the blacksmith shop of
M. McMillan, that tradesman, with a
boy to help him, shod ninety-six horses.
This reads like pretty big’ work, but we
find it so recorded in the morning jour-
nal of that city.
Bob Daily, of Renovo, built a fire
in his cook-stove on Sunday morning by
saturating the wood with an extra
quantity of coal oil, and the way his
hair stood on end when he saw the
stove-lids on their way to the ceiling,
was wonderful to behold. r
—— Mr. Chas. F. Berwind, president
of Berwind, White & Co., who op-
erate some of the largest coal mines in
our county, died at his home in Phila-
delphia, on Friday morning., Dec. 5th.
Mr. Berwind was only 44 years old and
was actively interested in many of the
largest enterprises in the Keystone
State.
——We have received and will pub-
lish next week the very able and elo-
quent address delivered by Rev. Dr. R.
A. McKinley, of Clearfield, on the occa-
sion of the unveiling of the Clara Price
monument at Karthaus on the 29 ult.
It would have appeared this week but
for the fact that it reached us too late to
get into type.
In the Beech Creek R. R. station
at Lock Haven there is a notice address-
ed to young ladies only. It notifies
them that “all loafing about the station
strictly prohibited.” The girls of that
town are in the habit of congregating
about the station to have a giddy time
catching “drummers,” but the agent is
going to stopit. Would not an enfore-
ed notice of the same nature be a bless-
ing to the traveling public at our sta-
tion also ?
——While we deplore the turn that
the business condition of our town has
taken, we do not advise the rash steps
which our little contemporary, the
Daily News, sets forth in its issue of
Monday. Instead of telling live ener-
getic people to leave Bellefonte, if they
wish to succeed, it should encourage
them to battle against the evils which it
cites as striking the death-blow of Belle-
fonte's prosperity.
A Faran Brow.—On last Friday af-
ternoocn a party of four persons from
Philipsburg, including William Kane,
and Kate Long, colored, and Mrs. Sy-
son (known as Maggie McCann) and
Myrtle Hunter went over to Houtzdale
and entered the restaurant of the Ar-
lington Hotel at that place. Kate Long
gave orders for oysters for tour. The or-
der was taken by Wm. Gray, the color-
ed porter of the house, who had charge
of the bar at the time, the bar tender
having gone to his supper. There was
delay about serving the of the oysters,
whereupon Kane began to make a
racket. He was then told by Gray that
he could have nothing in the hotel and
that he had better take his party and
get out. Kane swore that there was
not a nigger in Houtzdale who could put
him out and that he wasn’t going out
either. At this junction Gray went be-
hind the bar and picked up a club, sup-
posed to be a handle from a shovel, with
which he struck Kane a blow over the
left ear. Kane was assisted out of the
place by Kate Long and upon reaching
the pavement he fell. Upon hearing of
his laying there in the snow, Mrs. Auaby
the proprietor's wife, ordered the man
carried into the sample room of the ho-
tel. She thought that he was in a
drunken stupor, but instead it was his
death sleep, for he never awoke.
‘Whether it was murder or a blow
rendered in a quarrel is a question which
will only be decided by the court. The
murdered man was employed by livery-
man Paul, at Philipsburg, as an hostler,
and bore a rather ‘shady’ reputation
about thetown. His home was in Ha-
gerstown, Md. Win Gray, his assailant,
is a tall, slight colored man about 25
years of age. He hails from Greensburg,
this state, and is said by those who
know him to be an inoffensive, quiet
fellow, and it is generally supposed that
the provocation must have been very
great or he would never have committed
the crime, though the evidence at the
inquest was exactly the contrary.
Tre CoLuMBIA CYCLE CALENDAR. —
A very valuble business calendar for
1891, and entirely unique in design, is
the Columbia Cycle Calendarand Stand,
issued by the Pope Mfg. Co., of Boston,
Mass. The Calendar is in the form of a
pad containing 366 leaves, each 5} x 2}
inces, each leaf containing blank for
memoranda, and as the leaves are only
fastened at the upper end, any leaf can
be exposed, no stub being left when the
leaves are torn off. The pad rests upon
a stand, containing pen rack and pencil
holder, and made of stained wood,
mounted with raised letters in brass,
thus forming an ornamental paper
weight. The day of the week and the
day of the year, together with the num-
ber of the days to come, are given, and
each slip bears a short paragraph per-
taining to cycling and kindred subjects.
These paragraphs have been carefully
collated from leading publications and
prominent writers, the larger number
having been specially written for this
purpose. Although this is the sixth
issue of the Calendar, all the matter is
fresh and new, comprising notable
events in cycling, opinions of physicians
and clergymen, hints about road mak-
ing, and numerons other topics.
A GirL Rossep oF Her Har
‘WuiLe ASsLEEP.—-The Newport Ledger
is responsible for the following : A most
dastardly deed was perpetrated on Miss
Annie Miller, a 16-year old daughter of
Davidson Miller, who lives about two
miles above Newport on the south side
of the Juniata, in Juniata county, on
Sunday night. The family had retired
to bed as usual,leaving the door unlock-
ed to allow a son, who is watchman on
the railroad track, to have free ingress
and egress. Miss Annie was possessed of
a luxuriant head of light colored hair,
which when flowing reached below her
knees. Monday morning when her fath-
er called herto get up,she discovered
that some fiend had been to her bed
during her sleep, cut her tresses oft and
earried them away. ‘Who'did the deed
has not yet been discovere@
STAND RicuT BY Him.—There is an
architect in Bellefonte by the name of
Robert Cole and the Bellefonters appear
to stand right by him. Among the
buildings latterly planned by him are
| Col. 'Wilkinson’s new house, Dr. Sei-
bert’s, the new United Brethren church,
the remodeling of Colonel Spangler’s,the
remodeling ofthe Bellefonte Academy
and lots of others, and all superior speci-
mens of architecture. This patronizing
of their own townsman is a commehnda-
ble feature in the Bellefonte property
owners who have buildings to erect.—
Lock Haven Democrat.
A SINGULAR Farariry.—For the’
past few years a singular fatality has
attended the leading members of the
Berwin White Coal Company. First,
Allison White, then Harry Frank, fol-
lowed by H. G. Fisher, and now Charles
F. Berwind, all within the space of two
or three years——members of the most
prominent and leading coal company of
this section—and the majority of them
young men in the prime of life.—
Altoona Trbune.
——The authorities of Lock Haven
have forbidden coasting in that town.
Read the Cash Bazaar’s adver-
tisement of holiday goods.
“Cabinets” at Moore’s gallery
for $1. This does not mean inferior
work. It means the very best.
— Hattie Ader, tried at William-
sport last week for the murder of her
infant child, was acquitted.

Holidaysburg, leaves a vacancy which
will be hard to fill in the Blair county
bar.
— The poles for the Brush lights
which are to illuminate the streets of
Bellefonte at night are being put in
place. an

in trouble again. Attachments requir-
ing $20,000 surety have been served
against them by two Philadelphia
parties.
— George Lamb and Sol Roach of
Philipsburg last week shot a 350 pound
bear on Six Miles Run, and its hide a
splendid one, is now exhibited as a
trophy.
——A Hopewell, Bedford Co., parent
compelled his son to leave home while
weakened by sickness. The same father
was sent for to remove the son’s body
from the house where he died two days
later, and yet this is supposed to be a
christian country:
——1Tt is learned that quite an exten-
sive wagon manufactory is to be started
at Driftwood, and that the work of
erecting the buildings will be commec-
ed at once. The names of those at the
head of the movement have not been
ascertained,
——The great musical event in Penns-
valley this season will be the entertain-
ment to be given at Milheim to-morrow,
Saturday evening, at which the Cantata
of Esther will be given. It will be well
worth hearing and promises to draw a
very large crowd.
——Aiden Benedict's rendition of
Marie Corelli’s novel, the ¢ Vendetta,”
in the Opera House, on Wednesday
night, was witnessed by a small, though
highly pleased, audience. The acting
in the last two acts was strong and
specially praise-worthy.
Dr..J. F. Hedley delighted a fair
sized audience, in the Court House on
Monday night. His lecture on ‘‘the
Sunny Side of Life’ was very much en-
joyed by all who were present. The Dr.
seems to possess the happy faculty of
keeping his audience in an roar all
the time.
——1If you are asked to buy a ticket
to the Logan Hose Co’s masquerade
ball, which will be held in Bush’s Ar-
cade on New Year's Eve, Dec. 31st, do
it. The dance will be given for the
benefit of the new Steam Fire Engine
and it should receive the hearty support
of our citizens.
——Col. Wm. McFarlane, the hard-
ware dealer of this place, has been taken
to his brother’s home near Boalsburg.
The Col., we are sorry to say, is broken
down with heart trouble and other com-
plications. His friends consider his
condition dangerous, but we hope it
will not prove as bad as reports make it.
——Ex-Governor Curtin, when visit-
ing New York last week, was taken
with chiils and was indisposed for sever-
al days. He is now at the Stratford
Hotel, in this city, and although yet
somewhat enfeebled by his late illness,
is free from all sufferingand will be
about again when pleasant weather
shall return. — Philadelphia Times.
——Samuel Weaver, of the German
Settlement, a young man about 18 or 19
years old, met with a bad accident while
out hunting rabbits. He was leaning
on his shotgun, or rather had the gun
leaning against his breast, muzzle up-
ward, of course, when it went off, dis-
charging a part of the load into his
body and a number of the shot into his
face and forehead.— Lock Haven Demo-

——The Coal Trade Journal of last
week says the Beech Creek railroad is
to pass to the direct management of the
New York Central railroad company,
the road extended to the Chest coal field
in 1891, and adirect connection with
the Vanderbilt system to the west will
be made, and the Beech Creek will be
made the connecting link. It is pretty
generally understcod that the Beech
Creek road will this year build a branch
road from Kerrmoor, via Bell's landing,
along the river to Mahaffy, thence up
Chest Creek to Carrolitown in Cambria
: county.
——We call the attention of our read-
ers to the new advertisement of the
Rochester Clothing House, which is to
be found on the fifth page of this paper.
Mr. Fauble tells the buying public in
concise phrases the exact conditions un-
der which they can buy at his store, and
you can rest assured that they are the
best and that he lives up to them. Mr.
A. Fauble has just returned from Phila.
and Baltimore, where he has purchased
a new line of winter over-coats. This is
their third trip to the eastern markets,
this fall, and by going often they are
able to keep their store full of the latest
style goods. Nothing gets old at the
Rochester for the simple reason that it is
closed out before it gets the chance, and
stylish new goods takes its place. If
you want bargains in all kinds of cloth-
ing, the Rochester Clothing House is
the place to get them.
AN ADVANTAGE OF BEING INSURED.
—A short time ago Mr. Wm. F. Tip-
ton, of Howard, this county, died. He
held an insurance policy on his life for
one thousand dollars. On Thursday
Mr. W. H. Musser, the agent of the Un-
ion Central Life Insurance Co. of Cin-
cinnati, was in this office and showed us
a check, payable to Rebecca J. Tipton,
Mr. Tipton’s mother, for $1000. By
having been insured in a reliable and
prompt paying company, Mr. Tipton
left his mother a nice little legacy.
——The young men of our county
are not doing their duty. So far this
week but two marriage licenses have
been granted, viz: Thos, Barnes, Jr.,
and Miss Martha Alice Ramsdale Park-
er, both of Philipsburg, and David P.
Solt, of Lemont and L. May Houser of
Houserville. "We suppose our young
railroading friend, the conductor on the
B. B. R & B. C. R. R., will be swelling
the list before long. "Well, the sooner
the better. Single blessedness ain’t the
best thing in the world after all.
——On next Thursday evening, Dec.
18th, Moore and Vivien’s Comedy Co.
will play “Old Jonathan Coburg” in
the Opera House. This is considered to
be one of the best comedy companies on
the road and has been giving entire sat-
isfaction wherever it has appeared. This
company at one time delighted a Relle-
fonte audience with the laughable com-
edy “Our Jonathan.” A brass band and
orchestra are attractive features.
——Two would-be cow-boys, at
Philipsburg, frightened the good people
of that place almost out of their senses
on Monday night last. The untamed
braves were Sam Gillam and Nick}Gor-
man, who drove through the streets
shouting and firing revolvers until the
police hauled them in. A night in the
lock-up wassubstituted for a tent on
the plains, and $7.50 each was all it cost
them.
AN ACTRESS AS A THUMPER.--May
Davenport, the leading character in a
somewhat “dizzy” show that played in
Lock Haven one night recently, was ar-
rested and fined in Renovo, on Monday,
for assault and battery upon Miss Daisy
Sopp. Daisy, it appears, had made
some condemnatory remark about the
vulgarity of the show’s bills, whereupon
the Davenport proceeded to do her up.
——Mr. Emanuel Garbrick, a very
pleasant gentleman, from Walker, was
in town on Thursday transactiog busi-
ness. Mr. Garbrick strained his back
lately, but kis misfortune was our good
luck, in this case, for not being able to
do anything at home he concluded to
come up to town and call on his many
friends.
The employees of Hoover,Hughes
& Co's planing mill, at Philipsburg,
presented their retiring Superintendent,
Mr. C. E. Kemp, with a handsome gold
watch and a massive gold | Knight Tem-
pler’s ring. They were marks of appre-
ciation for ten years’ conscientious work
as a just director of men.
——Mr. Zachariah C. Miles, one of
Milesburg’s oldest citizens, and at one
time post master of that town, died at
bis home on last Friday might, His
death was from generai debilitation and
old age. The funeral was held on
Monday.
The young men of Bellefonte
propose holding an Assembly, in Bush's
Arcade Hall, on the night of Dec. 26th.
Many guests from a distance are ex-
pected, and the boys are trying to make
it the swellest thing of the kind that
has ever been given here.
‘We noticed Mr. Benjamin Beav-
er and wife, of State College, in town
on Thursday. They went home laden
down with bundles. We suppose they
were Christmas presents, but not for
Ben’s children, for he don’t possess any
of those luxuries.
——If you are in a quandary as to
what to give your father or mother as a
christmas present, come in and subscribe
for the WATCHMAN a year for them. It
would make the nicest and most profit.
able present you could give them.
——Mrs. Elizabeth Ayres, of Phil-
ipsburg, died, of paralysis, at her home

in Bellefonte.

‘Works is improving and now a much
better quality is being turned out,
——From the number of poles that
are being planted in the streets of this
place one might infer that the town is
about to be fenced in.
Mr. Samuel Phoust,of Poe valley,
had his leg badly broken and his body
crushed by a log rolling on him while
he was working in the woods.
——The Philipsburg papers, of Wed-
nezday, announce the death of Thomas

last,
-——A novelty in shaving is the Del-
.ucent preparation used by Mr. L. C.
Green, the barber. It is gotten up by
Colgates, the Perfumers, and is an ex-
tremely pleasant application for the
face. It facilitates and eases the shav-
ing. Try it.
——Manager A. S. Garman went to
Altoona on Monday to book the Ben-
nett and Moulten Opera Co., for his

hoff House, had the misfortune to upset
with his horse and sleigh av the trestle

serious injury was done.
——We clip the following} from the

day. He is the father of twelve children.
Chief Garis was a soldier in the war of
the rebellion’ and entered the army
when only 16 years old, serving two
years and a half.
——The late falls of snow have made
sleighing quite good, but it requires more
than snow to give you solid comfort
while you are out. It takes a good com-
fortable sleigh to make your enjoyment
complete, and the place to get such
sleighs is at McQuistion & Co’s. They
have a line of beauties, including
the celebrated “old comfort” sleighs. Call
and see them.
‘Will Cassidy, the foreman of the
Gazette office, went out gunning on
Tuesday and came back with several
pheasants. He was so much excited over
his good luck that when he got on the
train to come home he sat downon a

in luck he never knows which end ot
him is up.

sion at Altoona to-day to consider the
proposition to establish a fund to pay
the wages of checkweighmen of the
mines and to vote on the advisability of
demanding a general advance in the price
of mining on January 1. The conven-
tion will be one of the most important
ever held, as a strike, if ordered, would
affect 20,000 men. It is not probable,
however, that a strike will be ordered.

A Sap Drarn.—Friends in this
county will be grieved to hear of the
death of Mrs. Edward Krumrine, which
occurred at her: home, in Milton, on
Saturday morning last. Her case is a
particularly sad one from the fact that
while laboring under a weakened mind,
caused by prolonged sickness, she hung
herself to the transom of her bed-room.
Mrs, Krumrine was Miss Kerlin, a
daughter of Mr. W. A. Kerlin, of Rudd,
Towa, who at one time operated Rey-
nold’s Mill in this place, and was a wo-
man admired by all who knew her for her
loving traits and womanly goodness.
Her husband was formerly a resident of
Spring Mills and he, with one daughter,
mourn the loss of a faithful wite and a
fond mother.
FATAL CHILDS Pray.—-Two little
children were left in the house by them-
selves at Huntersville, near Hughesville
some days ago, during the temporary
absence of their mother, and as the
co nsequence one of them was burned to
death. The elder, of the two under-
took to amuse the younger by putting a
stick in the fire, it ignited, and then
poking the latter with it. This funny
business set the little ope’s clothes on
fire, and when the mother returned she
found her baby a blackened corpse, all
the clothes having been burned from the
body. This wasa Sunday occurrence
and the name of the family was Rinear-
son.
THE CLEARY CASE.—In regard to the
long suspended Cleary murder case, the
Lock Haven Democrat says: Peti-
tions are out asking the Court to accept
the plea of “guilty of murder in the
second degree” trom Charles Cleary,
and thus save the cost of a new trial,
which is set down for the coming Jan-
uary term. "This seems like a curious
and is certainly a very unusual proceed-
ing, and we do not know whether the
Court would have any right to or would
even contemplate theacceptance of such
a proposition. Of this ths Court itself
must be its own adviser and we have no
doubt that it will do what is right in the
premises.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.— We have
made arrangements with Dr. B. J. Ken-
dall Co., pulishers of ‘A Treatise on the
Horse and his Diseases,”” which will ena-

rons will appreciate the work, and be
glad to avail themselves of this oppor-
tunity to obtaining a valuable book.
