A Grear ELecrric, SysTEM.—One
of the most attractive places in Philadel-
phia, especially at evening, 1s the store
of Baily, Banks & Biddie. This vast
establishment is lighted at night by 700
incandescent electric lights, a system of
lighting which it has taken an expert
Electrician six months to perfect. It is
certainly as near perfection as the art of
illumination has so far reached, and the
effect is what might be termed entranc-
ing.
Bursts of bright yellow light come
from numerous overhead Klectroliers,
while ingeniously hidden globes light
up with startling brilliancy the case
devoted to silverware. Along one side
of the store effulgent beams of light
shoot out from behind single slips of
flowers, being reflected by the glittering
plate glass mirrors. In the art room the
various objects of beauty have, in ad-
dition to their own charm, received the
benefit of this system of artificial light-
ing. Apparently carelessly displayed
shafts of light, sometimes perfect floods
of it, are brought to bear in the most
harmonious manner on the articles to
which its splendor is more easily lent.
The charm of it all lies in the studied
carelessness and 1n the artistic manner
in which the glow lamps are hidden,
giving to the whole store an appearance
which recalls a page of a fairy tale.
Obituary.
Geo. B. McClellen Whiteman, of Snow Shoe,
Pa., who was so badly injured while coupling
cars at Bellefonte, on Dec. 27th, ult., that death
ensued a few hours afterward, was aged 27
years, 10 months and one day. He was a sin-
gle man, the support of his aged parents who
have reached the top of the mountain of life
and are descending the other side into the
shadows beyond. It was sad news for them
that told that Clell, as he was familiarly called,
was hurt unto death. Clell was an honest,
upright young man, and had a host of friends,
Here he spent his boyhood days, first in atten-
ance at school, at the old school house on the
hill ; next a young man in his teens doing
whatever his hands found to do, some-
times in the mines with pick and shovel,
again as brakeman on the railroad.
The stamp of manly character and principle
was imbeded in him in hisidevotion to and look
ing after the welfare of his aged parentsjin the
declining years, making their pathway as
smooth and comfortable as he could make it
It is the true test cf manhood, of love and af,
fection, of a dutiful son looking after the wants
of his aged parent, which so many sons lack
in this age. The funeral took place from the
residence of his parents on Tuesday afternoon,
Dec. 30th. The services were conducted by
Rev. Jackson. The funeral was largely at-
tended from this immediate section of coun-
try and a distance. The family desire to ex-
tend their thanks to the people of Bellefonte
for the kindness shown and rendered to
their son and brother, and also to the people of
Snow Shoe and vicinity for their kindness and
sympatby in their time of affliction.
A FRIEND.
I CEL A GR ARS TO
The Richest Colored Women in Vir-
ginia.
Ricamonp, Va:, Jan. 5.—Judge
Leake this morning rendered a deci-
sion, which, it not set aside by the Su-
preme Court makes Bettie Thomas
Lewis the richest colored person in
Virginia. The suit has been pending
for two years, and involved the estate
of the late dry goods merchant, W. A.
Thomas, estimated to be worth from
$200,000 to $250,000. Bettie Lewis
was the natural daughter of Mr.
Thomas by a colored woman. He
made no will, but told friends he in-
tended to provide for Bettie. Before
his death he gave his bank book and
the key to his box in the bank con-
taining all of his stocks and bond to
her. The legal fight turned uoon the
qnes‘ion whether this constituted the
gift of all property. Judge Leake to-
day held that it did.

“YOU CAN FOOL SOME OF THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME; ALL THE PEOPLE
SOME OF THE TIME, BUI YOU CAN'T FOOL ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME.’
—LINCOLN.
. The above words, uttered by one of the greatest men the world
|| ever saw, are particularly true when applied to the manner in which
some of the concerns in Bellefonte are attempting to do business.
On one line you will see large “Closing Out Sale” advertised ; on
another, “All Goods to be Sold at Cost,” and on down further you
will see suits advertised for “$9, formerly $18.” Now just stop
for a moment, look at it carefully ; an $18 suit for $9 ; was this
business legitimate 2 or is it legitimate now ? Is the man treating
you right when he chargés you $18 for a suit that cost him only $9 2
You will say at once, no. If he abused your confidence once, will he
not do so again ? Read this carefully, consider well whether it is to
your interest to buy your goods from a man who has treated you
squarely and honestly in the past, and who, intending to remain in
the same business and in the same place, has his own interests to
¢
protect by treating you the same in the future.
If you need anything in the clothing line, give me a call and I
will promise you good, honest value for your money.
