ROAD.— Last Monday morning Edward
Cassett, a resident of Lock Haven, and
fireman on the Bald Eagle Valley rail-
road, was suddenly killed at Milesburg
train coming from Lock Haven. As
the train was coming to the Milesburg
station the front wheels of the engine
struck a stone that was wedged in the
frog of the switch at the crossing, and
immediately left the track, going to the
left, smashing several freight cars that
were on thesiding. The fireman Cassett
at the time was engaged in putting coal
on the fire. The jar occasioned by the
engine striking the stone and leaving
the track, threw him out against a
coal car and his bedy, rebounding, got
under the engine. It required some
work to extricate it from the wreck, but
when it was recovered life was entirely
| extinct, the head being badly cut, the
body almost cut in two with the intes-
tines protruding. The remains after be-
ing taken in charge by undertaker Har-
ris, of this place, were sent to the fam-
ily of the unfortunate man at Lock
Haven.
The engineer, James Hensley, stuck
to his post until the train came to a stop
and was not injured. The passengers
jured.
From appearance the stone was put in
the frog intentionally by some malicious
person, as from its situation it could not
have gotten there by accident. It was
a hard blue limestone about the size of a
man’s head. As the road is level it
could not possibly have rolled there. It
was taken to Tyrone and the company
will investigate the circumstances.
years of age, having a wife and one
child. He had been firing on the Ty-
rone division for about two years. He
is spoken of as having been a very relia-
ble employe.
Tar LenicH VALLEY RAILROAD.-
The opinion of most people who are
posted on railroad affairs, is th at there is
likely to be considerable railroading
done in this section in the near future.
The decision of Judge Metzer, of Wil-
liamsport, giving the Williamsport &
North Branch Company the right to en-
ter that city leads to the supposition
that the Lehigh Valley Company
which is in reality the backer of the W.
& N.B. R. R. Company, will now
push on towards Pittsburg. The Wil-
liamsport Sun says: “The Lehigh
Valley Company have their eyes on
Pittsburg and it is generally understood
that when they once get their eyes on an
objective point they never rest until
they reach it. Aside from the immense
advantages which would accrue to the |
company from a through line to Pitts- |
burg, which is by no means a small con-
sideration, the Lehigh have interests |
along the line which they are anxious to |
They own some 14,000 acres
of valuable coal land in the Snow “hoe |
region and about 7,000 acres in the vi- |
cinity of Punxsutawney. They are now
operating the Snow Shoe mines, and are
compelled to pay the Pennsylvania
company for hauling the coal to the
eastern market at the latter's own
figures.
A Gana WEEK AT BOALSBURG.—
The last masical convention of the sea-
ron was held at Boalsburg the week be-
ginning February 9th and ending with a
grand concert on Friday evening. The
attendance exceeded all other conven-
tions of the season. It was well attended
by strangers and was considered by all
a cgrand success.
There were three sessions each day
with one hundred and sixty singers, and
each session was crowded. The proceeds
amounted to one hundred and seventy-
six dollars and twenty-five cents.
The people of Roalsburg know how to
entertain strangers and make them com-
fortable, and our friend Adam Hess de-
serves praise for making things comforta-
ble for all who attended tbe convention.
Prof. Meyer is one of the best musical
directors in this part of the State, anc
when he takes hold of anything in the
musical line it is certain to be a success,
as this and all other conventions in dif-
ferent parts of the county are evidences.
Tug Story oF A CaprivE.—The
court house was filled by a large audi-
ence on Saturday evening to hear Gen-
eral B. Frank Fisher, of Philadelphia,
tell the story of his captivity in Libby
prison. Although an old story, the in-
cilents with which General Fisher was
personally connected were interesting,
and would have been thrilling if he
wera more of an elocutionist. Judge
Furst presided over the meeting, and
ex-Gov. Curtin, James Milliken, esq.,
Mr. Edward E. Humes and General
Hastings were prominent in the audi-
ence. Col. McCauley sang the “Sword
of Bunker Hill” with great effect, and an
interesting featu.e of the exercises was
the presentation of a flag to Gregg Post
by the Women’s Relief Corps, General
Hasting® making the presentation
speech and D. F. Fortney receiving it
on behalf of the Post.

THIRTY-SIX Cows BURNED TO
DraTa.—The barn on the dairy farm of
, Mrs. Young, near Williamsport, was
destroyed by fire Saturday night and
the building and contents were
‘valued at $9,000. Thirty-six cows and
five horses perished in the flames. There
was $5,000 insurance.
——A great many of the cellars in

The Methodists of Lock Haven
have determined to arrest the loafers
who make themselves obnoxious .by
hanging around their church doors dur-
ing services. Something of the kind
should be done in Belleforite, particular-

'selves on the sidewalk at the United
| Brethren church.
The first rafts of theseason ar-
rived yesterday, and last night there
were five rafts tied up at the Lockport
shore. The first pair came in at half
past nine o'clock in the forenoon. They
were “spars” owned by A. W. Patchin,
and came from Patchinville, thirty-six
miles above Clearfield.—Lock Haven

——The license court will be held on
the first Tuesday in March. There
are 29 applicants for license to sell li-

people are preparing for a vigorous
fight against theirliquid enemy. Belle-
fonte is being scoured for signers to pe-
titions protesting against the granting of
licenses. During the past year there
were nineteen places licensed to sell
liquor.
——A correspondent, formerly a re-
sident of this county but now residing
in Washington, writes us as follows :
«Mr Kerr's chances are very bright
for being selected as the clerk of the next
House. He is very popular and has made
a host of friends during his short time
here. Congress will soon adjourn, then
peace will reign in Warsaw. You meet
so many from Centre county here that
I sometimes think I am back on my
native heath.”
The United Brethren congrega-
tion ot this place were delayed in get-
ting the pews for their new church for
which they had contracted with a firm
in Michigan, and when they did come
they were found to be the wrong ones.
Tt was the intention not to accept them,
but an agent came on and upon an
agreement that certain alterations wouid
be made, the congregation has agreed to
take them.
——Quwners of cows and horses have
realized during the past winter that Cot-
ton Seed, Gluten and Linseed Meal are
more valuable, according to the cost,
for feeding stock, than any other sup-
plies for this purpose. Messrs. McCal-
mont & Co. have received a liberal
patronage for these meals, and consumers
are convinced that they receive more
value for their money than is realized
out of any other class of feed. We refer
our readers to the advertisement of
the old Weaver farm located on the!
| Jacksonville road. The sale was made
I by Mr. J. C. Weaver of this place.
Messrs. MeCalmont & Co., which more
fully explains the advantages to which
we refer.
FURNACE MATTERS. — News that will
Interest those who are Interested in
Bellefonte.—In the last issue of the
WATCHMAN we promised to give our
readers something definite about the
condition of the two large iron furnaces
which are now idle in this place. Ever
since their closing down, the one at the
hands of the sheriff, the other forced to
do so by the exorbitant freight tariffs,
conjecture has been running rife as to
the prospects of resumption.
THE CENTRE IRON COMPANY.
‘When the large furnace of this com-
pany wa: closed by the sheriff’ about the
15th of of last November, with judg-
ments against it aggregating about $34,-
000, and when later the Fidelity Insur-
ance, Trust and Safe Deposit Company,
of Philadelphia, sued out the $600,000
mortgage which they issued in 1885, the
business aspect of our town met a severe
blow, and when we remembered that the
indirect cause of the company’s difficul-
ty was attributable to an article which
appeared in the Philadelphia Times and
whose authorship is accredited to one of
our own citizens, the failure seemed es-
pecially disastrous.
When the property went into the
hands of the receivers, who held it in
trust for the bondholders, immediate
steps were taken to eftect a reorganiza-
tion. The litigation involved in solaige
a transaction has now been about clear-
ed up and on Friday last there wasa
meeting of all the bondholders, held in
Phila., for the purpose of electing a per-
manent board of directors. Nothing
definite was done, however, further than
to appoint the temporary board which
has been in session here every day since
last Tuesday. The capital stock has
been increased to $650,000 and the bond
holders of the defunct Centre Iron Com-
pany are to receive stock in the new
Valentine Iron Comp: ny to the extent
of the bonds held by them. The per-
manent board of directors will undoubt-
edly be Hon. Jus. H.Campbell, of Wayne,
0. H. Reighard, of Williamsport, Chas.
W.Wlihem, of Readingand Hon. Daniel
Rhoades, Rob’t Valentine and J. Wes-
ley Gephart, Esq.,of this place. This
board will outline the future po'icy of
the comyany, and as their powers will
be practically absolute it will bring the
business into good working shape.
Our informant would not say any-
thing definite as to when a resumption
could be looked for, but he left us to in-
fer that it is the policy of the company
to put the works in operation just as
soon as the arrangements are completed
and the time will be not far distant.
THE NEW RAIL-ROAD.
The closing of the Bellefonte Furnace
Company awakend the business people
of this town to a realization of the fact
that she can not pro sper without a
cheap means of transporting her pro-
ducts to the eastern markets. Conse-
quently the “new rail-road” ball was
set rolling, but this time so areal has
been the momentum given it that itis be-
ginning to assume very substantial as”
pects. The leaders of the movement
are most sanguine of the resuit and
though not prepared to make definite
statements as yet, they have informed
us that everything isin a very promis-
ing condition. The trend of such gigan-
tic movements is naturally slow; so all
we can do is wait a little while and if
reports be true we will see our exten-
sion of the Beech Creek & Reading
system materialize.
There is one thing definite we can
say about the proposed extension, and
that is, if the road is Luilt it will give us
a competing line, for it was thought by
some, at first, that even should the road
go through, the desired competition in
freight tariffs would not be had as the
articles between the P. R. R. and the
Vanderbilt system. which were signed
last fall, would not permita cut in
freight. We have positive assurance,
however, that this will not be the case
and if the Buffulo Run and Beech Creek
Roads are connected we will have all
the competition we want.
THE BELLEFONTE FURNACE COMPANY.
We had expected to be able to give
something definite on the condition of
affairs out at the Bellefonte Furnace
Company’s Works, but information was
not forth coming and we prefer to say
rothing rather than news that is not fact.
All statements published above are
from the most reliable sources and have
been gleaned by our correspondent from
interviews with those who are in posi-
tions to make statements that can be
counted on as authentic.
A HANDSOME MILLINERY.—A grow-
ing trade and a desire to better her accom-
modations for her 1 any customers has
prompted Mrs. Robt. Gilmore to move
her millinery store into the room in the
Aiken’s block next door to Bunnell &
Aiken’s musi®@store. She is bandsome-
ly fixed up in the new quarters and now
presides over the finest establishment of
its kind in Bellefonte. The new room
is much larger and better lighted than
the old one was, and the facilities for |
displaying the wany pretty things in
the millinery line are of the best. Mrs.
Gilmore opens such a line of hats and |
bonnets for the spring trade as has never
been seen in our town.

—1t is the intention of the W. C.
T.U. to have the famous Lambeth’s
Scotch Choir to appear as the last enter-
tainment in the Star Course, on the
evening of March 6. Their Scotch
music is highly spoken of. ’
Last Friday afternoon the old
and faithful horse that for a number of
years hus drawn the Adam’s Express
Company’s wagon through the streets of
Bellefonte died suddenly on East Linn
street. The horse during the morning
had fallen twice on the street from spells,
from which he recovered. After taking
his feed heartily at noon he was taken
out again by Messenger Waddle, and
opposite B. T. Tuten’s house on Linn
street he fell again and this last attack
proved fatal. He is said to have died of
heart disease.
——The lumbermen of Clearfield
lost a great deal of timber which went
adrift in the flood of last week and have
sent men down the river to arrange for
the care and delivery of all lost timber
to market. They have had notices
printed and sent out to this effet.
Senator W. W. Betts thinks that one
half the lost timber will lodge before it
reaches Lock Haven, and about one
forth of the logs will do likewise. The
losses will not be as great.as was at first
reported, and will be generally distribut-
ed over the county.
Prows.--Plowing was almost one of
the lost arts until the celebrated South
Bend Chilled Plow was invented and
brought into practical use. Franklin
said :
“Ie that by the plow would thrive,
Himself must either hold or drive.”
When Franklin penned the above
lines he certainly did not anticipate that
the South Bend Chilled Plow
ever exist, for the reason that, with the
South Bend Plow, a boy who can drive
the team can man the plow and executs
the best mechanical plowing.

the place of a man.

farmers will be pleased with this an-
nouncement.
They have a large stock on hand in
their capacious warerooms where they
take great pleasure in explaining to
in these plows,-—in short, they have no
competitors.
A Serious AccipexT.—On Monday
last while little Gross Mingle,the bright
young son of Wm. B. Mingle, Esq.
Cashier of the Centre Hall bank, was
playing with some powder which he and
one of his playmates had in a bottle, it
exploded, burning Gross’s face in a
painful manner. Fears for his eye-
sight are ertertained. As he has not
opened them since the accident occurred

that the fears may be unfounded. His
face was so badly burned that most of
the skin came off, but this was rather
fortunate, for had it not been thus be

life.
