ing at Snow Shoe, had his arm mashed
Friday morning by getting it between

sence is missed.

sey,from Massachusette, in attempting to
jump off an east bound freight train, at
Bennington, near Altoona, was thrown
under the train and killed.
——Hon. A. V. Larimer, of Sioux
City, Iowa, who recently spent about a
week in Bellefonte, at the residenceot
Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Speer, on High
street, set sail for Europe last week.
A car load of fine looking draught
horses excited attention on ourstreets on
Tuesday morning. They were the pro-
perty of the Messrs Gentzel, of near
Zion, and will soun be placed on sale.
Lock Haven, Clinton, county,
Pa., U.S. A.,a city of about 7,000 in-
habitants, has no brass band. We won-
der if they will be able to recognize Ga-
briel’s trumpet when he begins Lis final
blast.”
——Since the scaffolding has been re-
mowed from the new residence of Mr.
Frank Montgomery it is pronounced to
be one of the handsomest and most dis-
tinguished looking structures on Linn

One more feather has recently
‘been stuck 1n a Bellefonter’s cap. It is
the one worn by Rob’t Cole, our archi-
tect, over the acceptance of his plans for
a beautiful bank building that is to be
erected on the corner of Main and Ju-
niata streets, in Tyrone, by the Blair
county Banking Co.
——The Literary and Debating So-

the Bush Hollow orator.
— The entertainment which we
advertised for the Y. W. C. T.U.,, of
this place, in our last week’s issue, has
gone ‘up the blasted spout.” All the
would-be stars are despondent over the
disappearance of the heavy villain, thus
leaving them without an opportunity
to display their talent.
As the time for granting Hquor
licenses in this county is drawing near,
and the new temperance organization
in this place ‘has held a meeting in
which licenses were the principal topic
of adverse discussion, it looks as if a fight
will Le made against the applicants who
will ask for the right to sell liquor.
Mr. Abraham Baum, the livery-
man, has been very unfortunate in los-
*ing valuable horses. On Monday night
one of the best ones he had in his stable
died of colic, thus making two horses
lost in a hittle overa week. The other
one that died was an exceedingly fine
:animal and was valued at something
over $300.
——A board of {rade was organized
in Tyrone on Friday evening last.
Over two hundred members were en-
rolled as soon as the organization was
effected and Tyrone is going to boom her
manufacturing interests as much as
possible. The board of trade way
of booming has not proved much a suc-
cess with us, but we wish our sister
town more success with ir.
Daisy axp Beaver.—One of the
most peculiar cases of animal attach-
ment we have ever seen is displayed
regularly, morning and evening, on the
streets of Bellefonte, when the cow,
owned by Col, D. K. Tate, goes to and
from her pasture.
Daisy is an ordinary looking red cow
and would not excite the slightest at-
tention were she by herself, but running
about her, frisking and barking, can be
seen a very little black dog, which the
colonel’s family calls Beaver. No mat-
ter where the cow is seen, or what the
condition of the weather, Beaver is the
companion of her travels. From the
time she leaves the stable in the morning
until her return at night he is playing
about her. If other cows come about
while she is grazing he quickly clears
the field,and Daisy has no fear from the
stones of the small boy for they all re-
spect the rights which her little protector,
Beaver,demands for her. When she be-
comes drowsy Beaver lies down beside
her and there he stays until she is ready
to get. Should she decide tostay away
from home all night no better guard
could she have than the little black
canine. In the stable, if itis cold, he
sleeps huddled up between her fore legs,
and whea the weather 1s warm he makes
his bed in some part of the stall with
her. So strong is the attachment be-
tween these two creatures that if Beaver
is accidentaly locked out of the stable,
at night,he makes night so hideous with
his mournful howls that some one is
only too glad to get up and let him in.
The only reason which the Colonel
assigns for this strange affection is the
fact that when Beaver was first the
veriest bit of a pup he was kept in the
stable,and, unfortunate in being born in
the winter, he found a warm nest near
the cow. We suppose his gratitude to
Daisy for the warmth with which she
provided him has prompted the devo-
tion which he now daily exhibits. It is a
novel sight indeed to see the cow and
her faitkful little attendant pass.
AxoragER WILL-0’-THE-WIsP.—Dur-
ing the early part of last week Col.
Wm. Shortlidge, manager of McCal-
mont & Co’s interests kere, was out in
Ohio on business. While casually glan-
cing over one of the daily papers he
chanced to buy he noticed the arrest of
a Frank Wilson, at Chillicothe, and
thinking that it might possibly be our
escaped murderer he telegraphed the
authorities at Chillicothe to hold the man
until he should see him. The next
morning found the Colonel well on his
way to Wilson and when he saw him
he got specimens of his hand writing,
noticed points by which he might be
identified, and got the promise of a pic-
ture. From the description he sent to
the authorities here it was at once decid-
ed that Mr. Shortlidge had, by a mere
accident, found the escaped murderer of
‘Waterhouse. His description tallied to the
minutest detail with that of the Wilson
we want, every statement only clinch-
ing the harder the impression that the
right man was found. This was all the
more convincing since it was known
that Colonel Shortlidge had never seen
Wilson while he was in jail here, or
read his description after the escape.
District Attorney Meyer had about
completed arrangements for sending for
the man, but when his picture arrived it
was found to bear very slight resem-
blance to the real Wilson. The
peculiar markings, such as missing
teeth, tattooed arms, depression on one
side of the nose, and large hands were all
there,but the Chillicothe manwas not our
man. Col. Shortlidge deserves credit
for the interest he took in the case, and
should the man he found have been the
one wanted,our county would have owed
him for the partial removal of a blot
which will ever be a disgrace to old
Centress history.
Dears oF AN OLD CLERGYMAN.—

The residents of Johnsonburg,
Elk county, are very much exercised
over the prevalence of small pox in
that place. At presen! there are six
cases of varioloid and two of small pox,
all of which, however, are under the
strictest quarantine. Over two thous-
and people have been vaccinated in the
last few days. Everything is being
done to prevent the spreading of the
McCormick will be the attorneys for |
dread disease. Two deaths have occur-
ed thus far,
But not until they had Pulled Through
one of the Toughest Class Scrim-
mages that the Penna. State
College Has ever Seen.
It is a weli established precedent in
College customs that prompts the annu-
al class banquets, and especially are
they looked forward to with pleasure in
institutions in which the large number
of students, in the different classes,
makes it impossible for classmen to
meet in real college fellowship more
than once a year. There is probably no
event in all the gay college life to
which a graduate looks back with hap-
pier recollections than that of the first
banquet at his alma mater, and how
proud he was when called upon to re-
spond to one of the various toasts that
were proposed. With the embryonic
bud of ambition already unfolding in his
strong young breast and his brain fairly
reeling with the thoughts of distinctive
individuality, he arises to make the in-
itiatory of what might make him, some
day, prominent as an orator.
On aparallel with the’ Freshmen’s
joyful anticipations of their ¢feed”
runs the calm determination of the
Sophomores to blast the sweet hopes
of the unsophisticated. So,as is the cus-
tom, everything is carried on with
the greatest secrecy. Arrangements, to
the minutest detail, are made long be-
forehand, so that nothing remains to be
done on the eventful night but slip out
and leave the outwitted Sophs to the
chagrin of their own deception. No
exception to the rule was the
management of the banquet given
by the Freshmen of the Pennsyl-
vania State College at Achenbach’s,
in this place, on Friday night
last: Though they were not quite
as successful in keeping their movements
entirely concealed as might have been
expected, for justas they were ready to
leave the College grounds the Sopho-
mores, who were at *‘Practicum’ in
the chemical laboratories, were inform-
ed of their preparations for leaving in a
body,and a grand rush was made to stop
them. The Freshmen were beginning
to congratulate themselves on the ease
with which they were getting off, and
had about reached the iron gate on the
main avenue, when down over the cam-
pus, howling and mad, ran their op-
ponents. To cut the harness and stop
the hacks was but the work of a mo-
ment, and then white vested Freshmen
and determined Sophomores were seen
rolling pell mell in the mud or coolly
standing up punching each other ac-
cording to the most approved London
Prize Ring rules. Mournful looking eyes
—that is, draped with black— disfigur-
ed “Physiogs,” and torn clothing were
seen jumbled together in a struggling
mass of humanity. Three of the hacks
were unmanned, but while attention was
centered on tho last one the other two
slipped off. A rush was then made for the
stage, into which some Freshmen had
climbed, but Sir Samuel Grieb promptiy
appeared with the escutcheon of Uncle
Sam’s Mail and it was allowed to go un-
molested. All the while the fight was
centering on the last hack, which was
so badly disabled, having & broken
tongue and eut harness, that escape was
impossible, and about it could be seen
Sophs and Freshmen laid out on the
snow, while away down below one poor
’94 man was helplessly hanging over a
picket fence receiving the chastisement
of five big '93s,and a fellow named Wil-
liamson was complacently making the
puddling places softer by frequent appli-
cationsof mud. The boys who werein the
last wagon, seeing its ‘condition and re-
solving that ‘‘descretion is the better
part of valor” withdrew from the fight
and went by twos to the Buffalo Run
R. R. and Lemont stations respectively.
About six o’clock the last party of them
arrived over the Buftalo Run road and
from that time our streets were alive
with happy, though sadly demoralized
evllege boys, for truly would they have
been an honor to the institution when
she sported the name “Farmer’s High
School.” Mud from head to foot, bat-
tered faces, and collarless necks told too
plainly what they had been through, but
then they got here, and what a sense
of satisfaction their discomfit was to!
them anyhow.
The Bush House, the rendezvous of
the Collegians, was soon filled and there
they got ready for the banquet.
At about half past nine the thirty-
seven H'reshman,the class numbers forty-
two, were seated in Achenbach’s 1ce
cream parlor, and after a peremptory
glance at the pretty souvenir gotten
up by Dreka, of Philadelphia, on which
was the ’04 engraving and motto
Palme non sine pulnere,’”’ the covers
were raised for the elegant “feed.”
The last course having been served,
and while the blue rings of cigar and
cigarette smoke went curling from lips
that were yet ‘smacking’ over the de-
licious punches, the toast master, Mr.
Brown, of Philadelphia, acting in the
absence of Mr. E. G. Edwards, called
upon B. A. Musser, to respond to ‘Our
College.” A neat address was the result.
“Our Class” was responded to by Mr,
A. G. Guyer, the class President, in a
way that inspired ’04 with great love
College Freshen Banquet!
for her success. Mr. A. D. Belt then
toasted “The Ladies” in a breezy little
speech and he was followed by Mr. P.
P. Sturdevant on “QOuar Professors.”
Mr. S. is asincera, plain talker and
said some things which contaired much
more salt than was credited. “Our
Past” was the toast answered by Mr. A.
D. Knittle, who gave quite a nice little
response. The toast of the eveniag,
however, “Our Future,” was proposed
by Mr. E. A. Pyne, of Boston, Mass.,
whose'rapid, easy manner and soft lan-
guare was highly entertaining, indeed,
and the boys were completely caught
by his a-la-Bellainy style,

Altogether it was a grand success and
the class of ’94 can look back toa ban-
quet which was elaborate and served
in as fine a style as could be desired. Mr.
Achenbach the caterer, deserves the con-
gratulations of the class for the elegance
with which evervthing was done, and
the committee, Messrs Roger Bowman,
Phila., T. Holmes Walker, Pittsburg,’
and Ralph H. Martin, New York, come
in for the highest praise for their suc-
' cessful management of the first annual
banquet of the class of 94. As
the class of ’93 had signed the
“ron clad” last fall it was thought
that it would be suspended en masse for
| participating in the fight, but as there
was no college property destroyed,- --
the good looks of the students not com-
ing in under the head--nothing was
done by the faculty.
WEDDING BELLS AT BEECH CREEK.
*| —=On Wednesday evening, February
18th inst., Miss Anna M. Leyden, of
Beech Creek, was married in the Pres-
b yterian church of that place, to Mr.
W. S. Elliott, of Wellsville, Ohio,
Rev. S. M. Pomeroy, of Mill Hall, of-
ficiating. The bridesmaids were Misses
Elsie Gibbony, of Lewistown, and Edith
Fearon, of Beech Creek. Ushers,
Messrs, Edward Leyden, Harry Fearon,
Henry Quigley, J. W. Alexander.
Frank Gibbony and Harry Leyden,
The bride wore white landsdown and
embroidered crepe ; Miss Gibbony,
white surah ; Miss Fearon corn-colored
landsdown. The reception at the bride’s
home after the ceremony, was attended
by a hundred guests. The bride and
groom drove to Lock Haven and took
the mid night train for a tour east, after
which they will make their homé in
Chicago where Mr. Elliott is an electri-
cal surgeon connected with the Edison
Company in that city.
DrowNED I¥ HER CELLAR.—On £at-
urday Philipsburg was the scene of an-
other drowning accident: Mrs. Alfred
Wallace, a resident of that place, was
found, about noon, lying face down-
ward in about two feet of water which
street. One of her sons, having come
home for dinner and seeing the door in-
to the pantry, which also opened on
the cellar stairs—open, went to look for
his mother, when upon looking down the
stairs he beheld her lying [in the
water. Quickly arousing his brother
who was sleeping at the time, they car-
ried her up and ran for a physician, but
he pronounced life entirely extinct.
Mrs. Wallace was subject toj abberation
of the mind and it is supposed that on
going to the pantry, to prepare for din-
ner, she was stricken with paralysis and
fell down the stairs. The family has
the sympathy of the entire community
in the boreavement which so sadly
came upon them.
ANOTHER BRAKEMAN KILLED.—
At 5:30 on Saturday morning the first
section of train No. 8, consisting of 200
cars drawn by five engines, left Tyrone
for Osceola. Nathan Woomer was
a brakeman on the train and when Os-
ceola was reached he was missed. A
telegram to Tyrone started an engine in
search of the poor fellow and it had not
gone far when a portion of the unfortu-
nate man’s body was found. Parts of it
were scattered along the track for half
a mile. The cause is unknown, but as
the train broke soon after leaving Ty- |
rone itis supposed that he fell off. A
wife and four young children are left
without a father and any support.
