Lock Haven Democrat, Monday.
Tar Gree CLus’s CoNceErt.—The
Glee and Mandolin Club of Fianklin
and Marshall College delighted a Belle-
fonte audience last night with a concert
of exceptional merit. The boys sang
and played with a style that was at once
captivating and appreciative.
Their appearance in Garman’s Opera
House was the first of its kind which
has ever graced the boards, and the size
of the crowd present to greet them was a
fair indication of how Bellefonte can ap-
preciate singers who have made for
themselves such a high reputation as
that borne by the F. and M. students.
Though their institution is not among
the prominent seats of learning in our
country, this club has sung ani played
its way into a degree of prominence
which might be justly envied by many
of the large colleges and universities,and
they have done this by giving just such
concerts as they gave us last night.
The audience was made up of Belle-
fonte’s most fashivnable people, and
everyone seemed delighted. It is rather
trying to sit two hours and a half listen-
ing to music of any kind, but their pro-
gramme was so varied and contained so
much of that chic which makes every-
thing enjoyable, that the evening was
over before one realized that it had gone.
The hits of the evening were made by
Mr. Will H. Keller, in his song ‘“Ac-
cents,” 'and Mr. Irvine ‘with his solo,both
of which were encored.
The Central Pennsylvania Alumni
Association of Franklin and Marshall
college held its first annual meeting at
the Brockerhoff House yesterday even-
ing,and after the concert gave a banquet
at the sume place. It was a very pleas-
ant affair and the toasts were responded
to in a manner which showed a great
enthusiasm in the alma mater.
A MINISTERIAL COINCIDENCE.-—Rev.
George Guyer and Rev. J. W. Haugha-
wout together entered the ministry and
joined the Baltimore (now Central
Pennsylvania) conference in 1837, fifty-
four years ago. They have been life-
long friends ever since and at the recent
session of conference at Sunbury, Rev.
Mr. Haughawout led in prayer for his
venerable friend, Rev. Mr. Guyer, who
was at that time lying seriously ill. Re-
markably coincidental is the fact that
on Tuesday night Rev. Mr. Guyer died
at hishome in Tyrone in his eightieth
year and on the same night at almost
the same hour Rev. Mr. Haughawout
after an illness of only a few days at his
home in Williamsport also passed away
at the age of eighty. Together they
entered the conference below, together
they entered their home above. —Ty-
rone Herald.
Toe Lumser Limir.—A dispatch
from Lock Haven concerning the im-
port of lumber this year, says: The run
of rafts from up the valleys to this point
and Williamsport will be nothing like
as large as has been estimated by a few
oversanguine observers. The many lum-
per producers of Clearfield county now
in this city, unable to sell at anything
but almost ruinously low prices, clearly
intimate that they will not sell except
in cases where they need cash so soon
as to force them. A well posted dealer,
who has collected all jthe data possible
on the subject, says that the river and its
tributaries will send down this year only
223,000,000 feet of logs; that 175 rafts
are down already, only 125 more will
come, and that even this quantity will
keep the Williamsport mills sawing all
the season.
BuriAL oF NEWTON GRAHAM.—A
dispatch from Clearfield dated last
Monday says: The body of Newton
Graham was buried at Bradford the day
after it was found. It seems strange
that there was no Coroner’s inquest, or
post mortem examination, The lost
watch was fonnd after a citizen had
suggested that it might be found in the
hip pocket, where the deceased was in
the habit of carrying it during life. The
body was buried without a sermon or a
prayer at the grave side. A number of
friends attended from town. Deceased
was a young man of kind disposition
and had no enemies. His brother Al-
fred is a Centre county lumberman. He
takes his brother's death very hard.
Trey THiNk He 13 WiLsoN.—-The
Commissioners have received a picture
of the man who is being held at - Allen-
town, on the supposition that he is the
escayed murderer Wilson, and so strong
is the resemblance that they have decid-
ed to send after him. When the picture
was placed among a number of others
the district attorney, J. C. Meyer, and
several other persons picked it out im-
mediately as bearing a most striking re-
semblance to the man who is wanted
here. Reports from Allentown state
that he is an old oifender in that locality
and has figured prominently in the
criminal courts of Lehigh county under
the name of Young.
——A general strike of miners in the

——A local contemporary says that
Bellefonte should make a determined ef-

work ?

ing made by the people of that city to
secure an industry to take its place.
The mill furnishes employment to one
hundred hands.
——Ex-county Treasurer, Cyrus Goss,
has moved with his family to Boalsburg
where he will reside in the future.
During his four year’s stay in Bellefonte
Mr. Goss made a host of friends who are
sorry to lose him as a citizen, but he is
not so far away that he can’t ger back to
see his friends often.
John McMasters caught four
large German carp in the river, below

here four years ago, and have grown
rapidly.—ZLock Haven Express.

fitter’s and steam supplies, as well as the
numerous other goods they handle.

stroyed by flre. "Willit’s shoe store was
also burned and the blacksmith shop of
John Pidcoe was torn down to prevent
the fire communicating with other pro-
perty. The total loss is not state, but
it is stated that Mr. Frymire's loss is
about $10,000, in which there was an
insurance of $8.500.

Jr. He has been ordered to report at

His admis:ion will place him in the po-
sition occupied by all new men entering
the Academy for the first time, and the
year and a half already spent there will
all have to be gone over. It is to be
hoped that when he re-enters he will not
be troubled with any more unpleasant
circumstances.
——Among the pleasant surprises
which residents of our town were given

toona, gave his father and mother, Mr,
and Mrs. F. Peeples Green. His pres-
ents to them were handsomely framed
lite size, crayon portraits of themselves
and to say that his parents were delight-
ed.is putting it mildly indeed.

A Big TuiNng.—We call the atten-
tion of our readers to the new advertise-
ment of James Schofield’s mammoth
harness establishment which can be
found elsewhere in this number. Jim
never does anything in the half way busi-
ness, and like every thorough business
man he keeps pace with the times.
There is absolutely nothing in the line
of harness and general stable supplies
that he doesn’t keep, and when he says
an article is superior he is telling you
exactly what he means and what trial
will substantiate. His store and factory
now occupy the whole of the large
Reynold’s building on Spring street, and
it has been literally jammed with har-
ness and sundries of every description.
Don’t fail to read the advertisement, and
while you are at it, it might profit you
to peruse the bargains the other mer-
chants are offering through our columrs.
A dealer who is not afraid to make open
statements about his trade is the one
who should inspire your confidence and
command your trade.
TREASURER GRAMLEY MOVED TO
BELLEFONTE.—On Thursday of last
week Treasurer Gramley moved his
family and effects from his home in
Miles township to a comfortable and
pleasantly located house at the upper end
of Howard street, where he will reside
during his term of office. "We welcome
him toour town and hope that his resi-
dence here will be pleasant to himself
and family, and that his term of office
will be prosperous. His moving was
celebrated by a large party of friends
who accompanied his family to town,
and the county officials and a number of
Bellefonte citizens welcomed his removal
to the county seat. Mr. Gramley, in re-
sponse to this welcome, prepared a
bountiful supper, to which all who par-
ticipated in the moving, and joined in
welcoming him and his family, were in-
vited, and heartily enjoyed the feast.
The town has made a valuable acquisi-
tionin Mr. Gramley becoming one of
its citizens.

Hicks’ PREDICTIONS FOR APRIL.—
Clear, frosty weather will follow the
storms of the 1st and 2nd, until on and
about the 5th when it will turn warmer,
with cloudiness and rains. The 9th
and 10this shown in the calendar as the
next storm period. April rains, scatter-
ing hail storms, with snow in the north,
may be expected. Frost and cold will
follow. April showers will gather into
wider and heavier storms about the 16th
and 17th. The 22d, 23d and 24th are
regular storm days, in which some ac-
tive rain and hail storms will occur. A
very warm atmosphere, with restless
electric clouds, may admonish of possible
danger. In the north snow need not
surprise, followed by the ‘regular fall of
temperature, perhaps to freezing. There
are reasons to expect very active, reac-
tionary storms on and about the 29th.
April ends cold.

A Goop MINSTREL SHow.—The Me-
Keesport Daily News, of October 13th,
has the following to say of the min-
s‘rels who will appear in Garwman’s
Opera House on Wednesday evening,
April 8th : !
A deservediy good house greeted Al
G. Field’s minstrel show at White's
opera house, and the audience saw the
best minstrel performance, without ques-
tion, that was ever presented in Mc-
Keesport. Every feature was new,
novel and entertaining. Mr. Field hos
an all-star company. The curtain did
not go down from the overture to the
after-piece and there was not a man in
the audience left his seat. The perform-
ance held the closest attention of the
auditors. Mr. Field and Billy Van are
funnier than ever. They have good
support in their associates, and the spec-
ialties are of an excellent order. There
is nothing in their performance to offend
the most sensitive lady. ;It is clean and
bright, and the manager who put on
such a meritorious performance deserves
the hearty support of the public. Mr.
Field is a Brownsville boy by birth, and
started a minstrel show a few years ago
in a very humble manner.

and shoe dealer, of Bellefonte; D.
H. Mingle, a promineut physician in

A Poor FARMER.- -A farmer named
Andrews, in Crawford county, died re-
cently. He was always complaining
about being poor. He dressed for effect
and lived the same. He died recently
and his heirs are now rejoicing over
finding $17,000 worth of government
bonds, secreted in a small tin box,which
was hidden on a brace in the barn.
About a fortnight ago they discovered
papers which proved that he had $8,000
worth of bonds in the Treasury depart-
ment at Washington. He left a farm of
800 acres, worth at least $20.000. If
the heirs are of the usual style they will
not worry any one by telling them they
are poor. . :
