RE
Drara or Doctor Musser.—The
life of one of the oldest and most reli-
able physicians of Pennsvalley closed
with the last day of 1890, in the death
of Dr. Phiiip. T.” Masser, who left the
scene of bis usefulness at Aaronsburg
on the 31st ult, at tie age of 62 years, 1
month and 20 days. He was a native
of Gregg township, this county, where
he was born, November 10,1828. He
was of a substantial German family who
settled at an early date in Northampton
county, his grandfather Philip Musser
being among the early emigrants to the
wilds of Centre county about a century
ago, settling in Pennsvalley and being
among the pioneers in bringing that re-
gion to a condition of cultivation.
Dr. Musser’s father was also named
Philip who after the death of his first
wife married Mrs. Catherine Stover, a
daughter of Joseph Richard who had set-
tled at Milheim. From this marriage the
ed by Samuel Musser, two miles east of
Spring Mills. He was but six years old
when his father died. Upon this be-
reavement he went to reside with his
older brother Samuel. When about 16
years old he attended school at Mifilin-
burg, Union county, where he remain-
ed several years and in 1350 commenced
the study of medicine with Dr. Van-
valzah at Millheim and was graduated
at Jefferson Medical College in 1853.
He commenced the practice of his pro-
fession in partnership with his preceptor
with whom he continued until 1861,
and in 1866 he removed from Millheim
and located in Aaronsburg in 1866
whers for many years he was the most
prominent physician, retiring some four
years ago on account of the impairment
of his health, which took the form of
acute rheumatism which confined him
to his bed for the past year.
Dr. Musser was married in 1857 to
Mary J. Mumbauer, daughter of Peter
Mumbauer, of Millheim, who survives
him, having faithfully and affectionately
attended him during his last and pain-
falillness. is children are Ella, wife
of Rav. A. J. Irey, a Baptist clergyman
ot Wheeling, West Virginia; Dr. C. 5.
Musser, who practiced with his father,
and Harvey Musser, Esq., an attorney
of Akron, Ohio.
Starting in early life with few advan-
tages and forced to struggle for his ad-
vancement, Dr. Musser may be said to
have been a self-made man. But toa
resolute disposition and good moral
qualities was added the advantage of
excellent mental qualifications, and with
these success was assured in the arduous
profession he had chosen as his life-call-
ing. His humane disposition as a man
equalled his skill as a physician, and the
community in which he was so long
professionally useful mourn the loss
they have sustained in his death.
SxYDpER County RaTs.—-The Mid-
dleburg Post says: “Jacob Hassinger
of this town was the owner of two very
fine hogs the beginning of last week.
The animals were so fat that they
couldn’t get up any more. On Tuesday
morning upon entering his stable Mr.
Hassinger found one of the hogs lying
on her stomach and stone head. He
turned her over when he discovered a
hole eaten into her throat by rats and
one of the large arteries cut from which
she had bled to death. The rats had
stable and approached the hog from
below. He dragged the dead porker to
the mountain and turned the other heg
out of the stable into the outside pen.
Wednesday mornig the animal had big
notches eaten out of her ears, but was
otherwise unhurt. He killed her to save
her from the ‘‘varmints.”
Mrs. Harry SEIBERT DEAD.—We
were sorry to learn of the death of Mrs.
Harry Seibert, which occurred at her
home on Szcond street, Philipsburg, Pa.,
on Wednesday morning, Dec. 31st. The
deceased was formerly Miss Mary Hein-
le of this place, but after her marriage
to Mr. Harry Seibert, who was then a
Bellefonter, she went with him to Phil-
ipsburg where she has lived for some
time. She was about twenty-eight years
old and had been ill for two weeks.
Her husband and one little daughter
mourn the loss of a wife and mother
whose sweet life went out with the dy-
ing old year, The interment was made
in this place on Friday morning.
DissorLuTioN. — The partnership,
which has heretofore existed between
Messrs Amos and John Garbrick, in the
ice business, has been dissolved, Mr.
Amos Garbrick continuing the business.
He is busy now harvesting as pretty a
crop of crystalice as has ever been taken
from his pond at Coleville, so that with
the coming of summer he will be able
to supply all his customers with clean,
pure ice.

— The people along the river above
Lock Haven are beginning to be fright-
ened at the probable results of a large
ice jam that has been formed at the
mouth of Queen’s Run.
The public schorls of Phiiips-
burg have organized a savings bank
and on its opening day it had 196 de-
positors with $106.77. The highest de-
posit being $6.50 and the lowest 0.1
been putin the new United Brethren
Church, on the corner of High and

appearance of that, already, pretty little
structure.

Mrs. Prescilla Jane, wife of J.S.

Wednesday morning. She was 79 years

Ed Powers is offering unpre-

people of our town have returned to

— Postmaster Fiedler, of this place,
received a pleasant surprise on New
Year's morning in the shape of a hand-
some gold chain, presented to him by
the clerks and carriers in the office. This
is a proof of the good felling existing be-
tween the parties all round. Mr. Rees
made the presentation address. An
appropriate response was made by the
recipient. It is a valuable gift and we
congratulate Mr. Fiedler on the senti-
ment which prompted the gift.
— At the last meeting of the Board
of Pardons clemency was extended to
Edward C. Loveland, the young man
of Lock Haven who betrayed a young
woman and then caused her death by
subjecting her to malpractice. He was
sentenced for twelve years and has been
pardored after serving about 18 months.
This action of the Board is believed to
have been on account of the illness of
his father, T. P. Loveland, whose illness
| is of such a character that he cannot | the
live long.
——1In speaking of the experiment of
a school savings bank in Philipsburg,
the Journal of that place says: It is
gratifying to the promoters of the bank-
ing system to be introduced into our
schools, that it is being anticipated by
the scholars and parents with so much
pleasure. On Wednesday many of
them were prepared to make deposits,
but Prof. H. H. Weber considered it
better to postpone the receiving of
deposits until Wednesday next. While
on his holidays Mr. Weber visited
Principals at Williamsport from whom
he gleamed much information on the
the subject. Everything is now com-
plete and it is hoped the parents will en-
courage providence in their children,
and assist them in the saving of the
cents ; the dollars will take care of them
selves.
The home of William Lewis,
Se. of Port Matilda, was the scene of
mirth and festivity on Wednesday ev-
ening of last week. Mr. Lewis had
just reached the seventy-sixth milestone
on his journey of life and his neighbors
and friends called in to properly cele-
brate the event, His immediate family,
several of his married children and quite
a number of grandchildren were present
and also some twenty-six guests repre-
senting Blair, Huntingdon and Centre
counties. He now sports a fine new
hat as a souvenir of the occasion. Other
appropriate presents were made. The
company had a merry time and all
went away pleased with their call. Mr.
Lewis is the personification of “old
Democracy’ of the strongest kind and
we hope that he may continue as hale
and hearty as he is now, for many years
to come.
McCrLeLLAN WHITEMAN KILLED. —
On Saturday morning, Dec. 27th, an
accident, which took the life of an
honest young man and depriveed two
aged parents of a dutiful son,occurred on
the railroad just below the freight de-
pot at this place. While McClellan
Whiteman was trying to make a coupl-
ing his foot slipped and he was caught
between the dead—woods of the cars
and his whole left side crushed in. The
unfortunate young man was picked up
and taken to the Bush House where he
died shortly after two o'clock. He was
about 28 years old and had been on the
railroad but a short time. A blind fath-
er and an aged mother, dependent upon
their son’s resources for a livelihood,
mourn for one who was their stay and
their all. His remains were interred
from his home in Snow Shoe.

A FAREWELL BANQUET TO RECORD-
' gr HARTER.—On Monday evening,
"Jan. 5th, ex-county Recorder J. F. Har-
: ter, Esq.was the recipient of one of those
, handsome tributes which so beautifully
i define a man’s standing among men
'and show the marks of appreeiation
! which honest endeavor so richly
| deserves.
On that day the terms of the old
‘county officers having expired, the new
ones were sworn in, and as Mr. Harter
wasn’t ‘in it’’ last fall he found it de-
volving upon him to vacate also. How-
ever he was requested to remain over
night in Bellefonte in order to hold a
last practice with the Band, which
he has had the honor of leading ever
since its inception ; so he decided to re-
| main and give the boys the benefit of
| one more night's instruction before his
return home to Millheim. About eight
o'clock the members of the band began
to assemble in their room, in the Court
House, for practice. Dr. Harter was
there and we fancy he looked a little
sorrowful ; probably it was the thought
ofleaving so genial a crowd that brought
thesad expression to his eyes, but he
played on with his usual grace and ex-
cellence. Several selections were re-
hearsed and then manager Al. Garmar,
to whom Bellefonte is indebted for the
organization of her band, proposed that
| they go out and play a couple of peices
| on the portico. The proposal was ac-
cepted and several pretty selections were
{ rendered. When the instruments had
"about frozen up Mr. Garman called !
come on boys” and they went, every-
‘one knowing whither but the leader.
| Uponraaching Cedar’s Ice Cream Par-
"lms the column turned in, and here
| everything was given away, for
the sight of the beautiful banquet
| tables in the hall immediately foretold
what was to come. After all had been
! seated, Mr. Garman requested District
| Attorney J. C. Meyer to explain the
object of ‘all the strange manuevers that
had been made during the evening,
whereupon he arose and in a neat little
address tendered the respects. ol the
band to its leadsr and complimented
him on behalf of our citizens for the
success he has made of it.
language was couched in the highest
ecomiums of praise tor Dr. Harter asa
gentleman, as an officer and as a musi-
cian. To this the Dr. responded,
feelingly. in a few well chosen words
and expressed his great gratification at
this manifestation of esteem. The
speech making over, for the time being,
all eyes were turned to the tables and
what visions of loveliness they were.
i Running our eyes hasti'y over them we
lsaw covers laid for twenty-seven and
y were all raised, Elegantly did the
deft hands of the waiters serve the var-
“ious courses of the menu and swiftly did
[the merry banqueters stow-away the
delicacies. The finest of everything
| was on the list and everyone did jutice
to the most sumptuous fete. Cigars
were the last number, they being pre-
sented by our jolly new Treasurer, Mr.
Gramley. As the party sat and watch-
ed the curling smoke rise to the ceiling,
jokes were cracked—nothing else—and
the different politicians, victorious and
defeated, were rigged about their cam-
paign promises. Altogether it was one
of the nicest affairs we have ever bad tbe
pleasure of attending. Ore of the hap-
py coincidences was the fact that it was
the celebration of Dr. Harters’ 84th
birthday. The party was composed ;of
members and ex-members of the band,
all the county officials who were in
town, and four representatives of the
press.
After the banquet was ended the
baud played a farewell piece to its
leader and every one wished him health
and prosperity upon the return to his
private life. Long shall Monday
night be remembered and though every-
thing was bright and gay we did not
fully realize that we were celebrating
the departure from our midst of one
wo has labored uncessingly to give us
a musical organization of which we all
have a right to be proud.
Tue LosAN BALL.-—On new year’s
eve the Logan boys gave their twenty
first annual masquerade Ball. It was
held in Bush’s new Arcade Hall,
which was artistically decorated for the
occasion and presented a very pretty
and striking appearance. At nine
o'cloek the grand march was begun, the
Zion band furnishing the music. About
fifty couples took part in the march and
for gorgeous and unique designs we have
never seen their equal. Representatives
, of most all nations were there. Fairies,
Angels, Devils, Clowns, Firemen, Bad
Boys, McGintys, and Desperadoes in
abundance each vieing with the other
to make fun for the party. After the
march was over the orchestra took the
place of the band and the dance was
continued until early in the new
year. All who were present are unani-
mous in their praise of the dance and
say that it was the best one ever given
by the Logans. Much credit is due the
committee, Messrs Jas. Bayard, Chas.
Heisler, Rash. Williams, Kirk Tate,
and Joseph Gross, for the successful
flonase in which they conducted the
ball.

Two NoTABLE EVENTS AT HOWARD.
—The entertainment which was held in
the Evangelical Church, by that Sun-
day school on Christmas evening, sur-
passed anything of its kind given in this
community, we are told. It was at-
“tended by a very large and attentive
audience, many being compelled to
‘stand during the entire exercise, but
they were amply repaid for so doing as
the entertainment progressed. The
church was very beautifully and taste-
fully decorated with flowers and ban-
ners, and the Christmas table, which
was heavily Jadened with confectionery
frait, &c., went a great ways toward
beautifying it, especially to the eyes of
the young folks, who expected to enjoy
some of the good things which were soon
to be distribnted among them. The
children under the management of Mrs.
| S. E. Hensyl did their part exceedingly
| well. It is useless to comment upon
| the singing for (under the instructions
of Prof. Z. T. Weirick) it would be pre-
varicating to say thatit was anything
but very fine, as could be easily judged
upon hearing the opening anthem song.
During the exercises Mrs. S. E. Hensyl
had the pleasure of presenting avery
handsome book to Rev. Koontz. After
distributing the treat the benediction
was pro nounced by Rev. Koontz.
The social oyster supper which was
| given by the Independent Order of
| Odd Fellows at the Syracuse House on
New Year's Eve, was very well conduct-
el and managed. There were about
eighty ladies and gentlemen present who
partcok of the delicious bivalves prepar-
ed by Mrs. J. L. DeHaas, who is an ex-
| pert at that business. Quite a number
"of the ladies and gentlemen present
came over from Hublersburg. The
‘supper was not alone for the Odd Fel-
| lows but for all who felt disposed to go.
Tue NEw County OFFICERS.--Last
Monday the new Democratic county of-
ficers were sworn in and assumed the
duties of their respective positions.
Mr. Ishler took possession of the Sher-
iff’s office and on Tuesday moved his
family into the jail, his predecessor hav-
ling vacated the day previous. He tem-
| purarily retained the service of Deputy
| Wilson, and is also assisted by ex-Sher-
| iff Woodring. The Sheriff has not yet
. determined who shall be his permanent
| Deputy, and we can speculate upon
| this subject no further than to say that
| we have no doubt he will select an ef-
ficient assistant. Sheriff I[shler goes
into office with the full confidence of
the people that he will make an excel-
lent officer.
The three new Commissioners, Messrs
Adams, Goodheart and Strohm, also
took the oath of office and assumed
charge of the county affairs. The re-
sponsibility of administration will of
course devolve upon the Democratic
majority of the Board, but the Demo-
cratic members are gentlemen whose
intelligence and ability promise a care-
ful, economical and efficient manage-
ment of the county business. Mr.
Strohm, the Republican member of the
Board, is also a gentleman of ability
and integrity,and we trust will harmon-
ize with his colleagues in the perform-
ance of their official duties. They are
all good looking men and have the dis-
tinction of heing unusually young men
for so important a position. They have
appointed Mr. Robert Hunter, of Ben-
ner township, Commissioners’ clerk, a
gentleman who is abundantly able to
perform his duties in a satisfactory man-
ner, which we warrant he will do.
The other officers sworn in were Reg-
ister Rupp, Recorder Morrison, and
Treasurer Gramley. It was a great
satisfaction to see Mr. Rupp retained in
the position which he filled so well dur-
ing the past three years. Mr. Morrison
assumed the duties of his office tully
equipped for the competent discharge of
his trust, and no county officer was ever
installed under better auspices. He has
appointed Mr. Wm, Dukeman as his
Deputy. Mr. Gramley completed the
list of Democratic officials who on Mon-
day affected the revolution in the coun-
ty offices. The county treasury in his
keeping will be in good and safe hands
and he gives promise of making one of
the most satisfactory Treasurers the
county has ever had. We welcome the
new officers to their official positions,
and wish them prosperous terms of of-
fice and a Happy New Year.
FrerrA WEAVER PARDONED.—For
some. time W. E. Gray, esq. has been
working tor a pardon for Fietta Weaver
who was found guilty of the murder
of Andrew Weaver Sr. Fietta has been
in the Western Penitentiary less than a
year and will come home just as soon
as the weather permits, as she is in very
poor health. Her attorney, Mr. Gray,
obtained letters from the president and
associate judges of this district, as well
as from ten of the juriors who sat on
the case, and went before the pardon
board with a well worked up plea. His
efforts wera rewarded by the pardon.
