Rev. Davie. HarTMAN.—We have
already made some notice of the late Rev.
Daniel Hartman, who recently died at
the advanced age of 81 years, but the
following fuller particulars given in the
Conference News may be of interest to
those who knew the good old Methodist
preacher :
He was born at Salona, Clinton coun-
ty, July 8th, 1810, and was married
February 14th, 1839, to Miss Mary
Davis, of Fulton county, who died in
1874 and was buried at Green Hill
cemetery, near Harrisonville, Fulton
county, Pa., and there was laid the re-
mains of Brother Hartman on the 19th
day of March, 1891, close by the church
in which he first proclaimed the Gospel
of Peace. It is a beautiful spot and a fit
resting place for the departed.
“Uncle Dan,” as he was familiarly
called, began his study for the ministry
with Rev. Daniel Barber, a Presbyter-
ian minister of Clinton county, and his
consequent familarity with the West-
minister Catechism has been frequently
remarked. We are not familiar with his
earlier denominational connection, but
the records show him to have entered
the ministry of the Methodist Episcopal
church when quite a young man, and
his active work in the ministry and as a
lecturer in the work of temperance re-
form, cover a period of about 57 years.
Four years ago, at the Conference meet-
ing at Bellefonte, we think it was, he
was placed on the superannuated list,
failing health forbidding further active
work. The Conference lately sitting at
Sunbury was the first not to have his
attendance during the entire 60 years of
his ministry.
Brother Hartman leaves behind him
two sons and a daughter, Mrs. John F.
Glosser, of Westchester, Pa., with whom
he had been in the habit of spending his
winters, while the summer was spent in
Clinton county,amid the scenes and with
the relatives and friends of his younger
days.
The funeral of Brother Hartman, who
was a chaplain during the war and a
member of the G. A. R. since, was in
charge of that organization under the
direction of Gen. McCauley. The fu-
neralservices were conducted by Rev. W.
A. Carver in the church at Green Hill
cemetery.

PREPARE FoR THE NEW RoADp Law.
—The Butler Herald thinks the new
road law will likely pass and counsels
preparations for it. It will contain provi-
sions looking to the battering of country
roads, and they certainly need to be im-
proved. The essential feature of this
provision is that a township shall share
in a State appropriation according to
the amount of money it collects and ex-
pends for permanent road beds. The’
township authorities of our county
should be considering the matter, so
that when the law goes into effect, it
may not find them behind.
The first thing to be considered in
making a permanent road, is that it be
properly drained. In many places the
stone is close at hand to make a substan-
tial road bed. During the coming sum-
mer sections of the road should be made
in the most swampy places. These sec-
tions if only a few rods in length,
should be made of stone broken in so
deep that next spring will show conclu-
sively that it will remain passable under
all conditions. This would give a basis
for calculating future expenditures.
The matter of macadamizing roads
might also be tried on a limited scale,
and such other experiments made as
would enable the supervisors to make
such permanent road beds as will pass
inspection, and bring the township the
amount of money from the State that it
will be entitled to receive. We are not
practical road makers,but in view of the
fact that the new law is almost sure . to
go upon the statue book, we simply
urge our people to be on the lookout so
that this county may not be behind in
the new order of things:
WiLL Stop IN BeLLeroNTE.—The
Philadelphia Record says: The news-
paper correspondents who were sent to
Johnstown at the time of the great flood
in 1889 endured many hard ships, which
in one or two cases resulted fatally. To
commemorate that troublous period the
Johnstown Correspondents’ Association,
composed only of those who were actuai-
ly engaged in newspaper work at Johns-
Yown and made up principally of New
York and Philadelphia newspaper men,
was organized last year. This year it
will observe the anniversary of the flood
with a dinner in this city on the evening
of May 30, to be followed by a visit to
Johnstown the next day, the correspon-
dents breakfasting with General Hast-
ings, at Bellefonte, enroute. Members
of the association wear a handsome
medal of blue and enamel, bearing the
figure of a reporter wrting on a barrel,
while above his head can be seen the
telegraph wires that flashed the news of
the disaster all over the civilized world.
BEWARE oF WILD PARrsNip.—Three
little children died at DuBois on Friday
afternoon from the effects of having
eaten wild parsnip, and four others are
very sick. Two of the dead children
were named Weigelman—Mary, aged
ive, and Anuie, aged seven, and the
other was Floyd, a three-year-old son of
J. M. Boring.
——E. Brown Jr’s new furniture and
wall paper store, on Bishop street, is the
place to purchase house furnishings.
——Mr. Lykens, of Scotia, slipped
and fell froma log on which he was
walking on Saturday last, dislocating
the elbow joint, from which he is now
nursing a sore arm.
——Rev. Frank Hartsock, son of
John C. Hartsock, of Halfmoon, has en-
tered the New Jersey conference, and is
now located at Hartford Station, a very
desirable appointment.
——Mirs. Robert Gilmore’s m illinery
opening yesterday proved to be quite
an attractive affair. Hundreds of pz2ople
flocked into her pretty store to see the
display of spring goods.
——The Commissioners of Centre and
Clinton counties met at Beech Creek
last week to consider the advisability of
erecting a new bridge at that place. It
isclaimed that the old structure should
be removed, as it is not safe for travelers.
——The Republicans of Union coun-
ty have already made their nominations
for the fall election. They have put up
Rufus C. Elder, of Mifflin county, for
President Judge. The Democrats will no
doubt renominate the excellent Judge
Bucher.
~——Miss Snyder bad her millinery
opening on Thursday and a large crowd
of people were present to admire the
pretty bonnets and hats.
——The Lock Haven papers say that
Judge Orvis has been engaged to assist
district attorney Brumgard, of Lock
Haven, in the prosecution of the
homicide case against Charles Cleary for
the murder of policemen Paul in Re-
novo, which trial will begin in Lock
Haven on Monday, the 27th inst.
——Tke Philipsburg Journal learns
that the Berwind-White Coal Mining
Co., as a result of their experiment in
sinking a shaft near Ramey, have reach-
ed a vein of Moshannon coal over four
feet in thickness. This find greatly en-
courages the people in that neighbor-
hood, and insures continued prosperity.
——Rev. Nathan Colburn, a well
known Methodist preacher, who has
many acquaintances in Centre county,
and who is a brother of Mr. James Col-
burn of Philipsburg, died at Lewisburg
on Saturday. Mr. Colburn has been in
failing health for a couple years, and be-
cause of this fact has held a supernu-
merary relation.
——The corps of mail carriers in this
place consisting of John A. Wagner,
John C. Bair, James Bayard and Thom-
as Benner, on Monday appeared in new
uniforms consisting of light blue suits
trimmed with black binding. These
are their second uniform suits since they
commenced their useful service to
the public. They are good officers and
deserve to look neat and trim.
——Rev. Dr. D. S. Monroe, of Al-
toona, stopped off between trains on
Tuesday morning and paid a host of
friends in this place a short call. It
was the doctor’s first visit to Bellefonte
since his pastorate here two years ago,
and his many admirers were delighted
to see him again. He had been to Lew-
isburg, where he preached the funeral
sermon over the remains of the late
Rev. N. W. Colburn.
As the season for marketing veal
calvesis at hand, a word to those§who
have heretofore been in the habit
of carting calves and sheep to market
with the animals’ legs tied together,
may not be out of place. A law of the’
State provides that animals shall not be
treated in such a manner, but shall be
carted or otherwise humanely handled,
and the offender is liable to a heavy
penalty for disregarding the provisions
of said law.
——There seems to be pecuniary re-
sponsibilities that don’t make it pleasant
or safe to bea borough councilman, for
some one has gone to the trouble of dis-
covering that all contracts made by
borough councilmen with gas or electric
light companies for the lighting of the
streets of any borough, and to be paid
for out of the borough funds, are illegal
and cannot be collected off of the
borough, the councilmen being per-
sonally and individually responsible
forall such bills contracted. And, if
the tax payers ot any borough saw fit to
do so, they could bring suit against
councilmen and collect all meneys paid
out on such contracts. This is not a
pleasant situation for borough fathers,
but it is said to be the law never-
theless.
MiLLiNERY OPENING.—On Wednes-
day, April 22nd, Miss Graham will open
to the trade of Bellefonte and vicinity a
full and carefully selected stock of
spring and summer millinery. Her
goods include the latest New York and

22nd, at the millinery store of Miss
Mary Graham. Ramember.
——Mr. Linn Knox, son of John
Knox, formerly of Benrer township,
and well known in this neighborhood,
died at Hainesville, Minnesota, on the
8th inst, where he had been engaged in
dealing in grain.
STATE COLLEGE VISITED IN VIEW
OF ANOTHER LARGE APPROPRIATION.
—As this session of the Legislature
nears adjournment the question of an-
nual appropriations becomes uppermost
in the minds of the members of the
House,and the bills appropriating funds
to every institution in which the State
interests itself are dumped indiscrimin-
ately from the committee.
‘With bills aggregating $18,000,000
asked for and about $11,000,000 to dis-
burse, the necessity of thoroughly inves-
tigating the comparative needs of the
different institutions, eleemosynary and
others, becomes paramount in the minds
of our Legislators, and a committee is at
once detailed to visit the various benefi-
ciaries of the State with a view to report-
ing on their exact status and workings.
The Pennsylvania Stale College is
this year asking for an appropriation of
$60,000 annually for six years. Since
the college has come into such good re-
pute and its work is becoming recogniz-
ed, it has been endeavoring to build up
the leading departments in its curricu-
lum, and as a result the State is being
called upon for help. Three years ago
it received an appropriation with which
a line of work was begun that required
additional aid,and now the college seeks
funds for its completion. No more
worthy or beneficent bestowal of State
‘money could be made than the granting
of this appropriation, when it is remem-
bered that it only effects the completion
ofa work which will stand as a safe-
guard against ignorance and as a most
efficient promoter of education in future
generations. The Pennsylvania State
College has attained that degree of
prominence that warrants the Keystone
in helping it to the level occupied by
the similarly placed institutions of her
sister States, and the present Legislature
could do no act for which it would
receive more genuine approval than the
appropriation of an amount sufficient to
complete the work which is necessary to
put our college in the front rank of the
educational institutions of the country.
On Monday morning last the sub-
committee on appropriations, from the
House of Representatives, consisting of
Messrs. Wherry, of Cumberland, Mul-
len, of Bedford, and Titner, of Susque-
hanna, arrived in Bellefonte,and,accom-
panied by Hon. John A. Woodward
and a WATCHMAN reporter, were driven
to the gollege. The visit was a partial
surprise to the authorities of the institu-
tion, but they have always had the re-
putation of being in readiness to receive
at any and all times, so the advent of
such important visitors made very little
change in the course of affairs at the
college.
The department of Mecha nical En-
gineering, with its electric station, ma-
chine shop, forge room, and wood
working department, was visited first,
and the President, Dr. Atherton, point-
ed out the hampered and crippled condi-
tion of the department owing to the
want of room and equipment, though
everything about the buildings was in
the prime of condition. The Armory
ard Gymnasium were next on the list,
and the neat and well kept appearance
of the building elicited remarks of praise
from the entire committee. From the
Armory we went through the Botanical
Laboratory and green houses where
everything was found in the best of con-
dition, though suftering somewhat from
want of appliances. The ladies, in
their cozy little cottage, were tendered a
call, and our escort hesitated not to give
us a peep into every room and nook in
the place. From cuisine to the sleeping
apartments everything was the pink of
nicety, and we truly believe that one
member of the committee was loathe to
leave the nest of the fair co-eds. Across
the campus, but a few paces, and the
Physical and Chemical Laboratories
were reached, and there the students
were busily engaged in research and ex-
perimental work. Professors Osmond
and Pond were most courteous in ex-
plaining the system in their departments
and spared no pains in making the visit
interesting. After dinner the Experi-
mental Station and the barns were visit-
ed, but no matter where we went every-
thing was in the same condition. Or-
der and cleanliness seem to be the
prime factors in the college government,
for from the stalls of the blooded cattle
in the experiment barn to the dome of
the main college building not a thing
seemed to be displaced.
The day for the visit could not have
been more delightful, and the impres-
sion of the entire worthiness of the coi-
lege for an ample appropriation could
not have been more favorable. Every
member of the committee seemed de-
lighted with what he saw,and tuey were
not slow in expressing their gratifica-
tion when addressing the students in the
chapel. The fact that one of the repre-
sentatives got himself so completely
mixed up with a fellow who “washed
his pedal extremities but once a year”
' that in sheer desperation he declared
. that he himself was the fellow, is evi-
dence sufficient that the beauties of the
college and its surroundings had entire-
ly overcome him.
While we in no wise believe in the
reckless disbursement of the State mon-
ey under the head of appropriations, we
nevertheless believe in the careful grant-
ing of assistance to institutions where
worth merits and investigation warrants
it,and the Pennsylvania State College
stands before the people of the common-
wealth as one of that class of institu-
tions.
A SquaBBLE Dip Ir.—With sor-
row we record the “bustin up’ of the
Literary Society of our colored brethren.
The weekly meetings, which have prov-
ed so interesting to many visitors on
Tuesday nights, are at an end, and no
longer will Leander Greene and Calvin
Pifer, and the many notabilities of the
organization,*‘elucidate on de argumen-
tation ob de question’ which was taken
for debate. Sad to relate the wreck was the
outcome of misplaced confidence in one
of the judges selected for the debate of
last week, and when unable to decide
which side won, owing to the fact that
he did not know which was affirmative
and which negative, a general embroglio
ensued and culminated in the final dis-
solution of the society. Who can tell
how many immortalities have been nip-
ped in the bud by this untimely disrup-
tion ?
HE, Sug, Him & Her.—The funny
musical farce comedy will have its first
representation in Bellefonte at Garman'’s
Opera House on Thursday evening next.
The Boston Journal says :
There was plenty of fun at the Globe
Theatre last evening. The audience
was kept in good humor by the antics of
the characters in ‘He, She, Him, Her,”
and laughed heartily at the tricks and
jokes played upon the principal actors.
The amusing scenes and incidents fol-
lowed each other rapidly and rounded
out three acts of unlimited fun. The
music was tuneful, the songs were well
given and the dancing was good enough
to satisfy any but the most exacting.
To Arr Lovers oF Music.—Miss
Mary Emory, director of the musical de-
partment at Millersville State Normal
School, will spend the summer in Belle-
fonte. She will give lessons in Piano and
Voice Culture through the month of
July and August. She has studied with
the best masters in Boston and Germany,
and is well prepared to give instruction
to any grade of pupils.

Business Notice.
——Farmers should bear in mind that the
spring and fall seasons of the year are the time
to build Barbed Wire Fence ; for the reason
that the wire during extreme warm weather
expands very materially—the contraction of
which in extreme cold weather causes it to
break orsnap. Ifthe fence shall have been
built in extreme cold weather the wire will ex-
pand and sag during the warmer seasons;
therefore, the best time to buiid a wire fence
isin moderate,'cool weather. The wire fence
recently built on the line of the Bald Eagle
Valley Railroad demonstrates that the link
barbed wire made of steel is the best wire
made for fencing purposes. The link wire is
sold by McCalmont & Co., of Beilefont e, Pa., ab
lower prices than this wire has ever been sold
heretofore.
Farmers will promote their interest by ex-
amining the fences built of the different
makes of wire and consulting McCalmonht &
Co. concerning the prices of the same. 14 4
