The new dress of the Philipsburg
Daily Journal certainly makes wonder-
ful improvement in the appearance of
that newsy little paper. Our friend
Bair, over the mountain, can congratu-
late himself on the fact that he now runs
about the neatest looking country daily
that’s on our table. Fall of good local
news and a staanch supporter of Philips-
burg interests, it is an honor to the town.
——Mr. Frank Stover, the butcher
cams very near losing a valuable horse
on Monday afternoon. While doing
some repairing at his slaughter house
near Roopsburg he tied his horse to a
barb wire fence. The animal being a
spirited one, began pawing and caught
its pastern on the barbs in a way that
frightfully mangled it and for a time
they thought it would bleed to death,
but the flow of blood was stopped in
time to save its life.
S16ys oF ProspEriTY.—That there is
work in store for the idle men about
Bellefonte is now beyond the peradven-
ture of a doubt and a walk to the plant
of the Valentine Iron company will en-
tirely substantiate our statement.
The shifting engines which have been
standing in the house since last October
are once more flying back and forward
through the yards getting the cars in
readiness, and on Monday night the
shrill whistle of a locomative was heard
through the Nittany Valley ore dis-
trict. It was down at the mines with
cars to oe ladened with ore for the fur-
nace.
Men are busily engaged about the
plant putting things in shape for an im-
mediate ‘blowing in’’ and the old time
activity characterizes the scene. Con-
signments of coke and ore are being re-
ceived daily, so ere long the hearts of
our iron workers will leap with joy at
the sight of the molten metal once more
gushing from the great furnace.
Many families will be relieved from
the awful embrace of poverty, and every
branch of trade in our town will feel
the impetus of better times.
It is currently reported, with good
foundation, that the Bellefonte Furnace
Company will resume on or about the
1st of May.
—— New clothing, new hats, new fur-
nishing, everything new for the coming
season is now opened and ready for
your inspection at the Rochester Cloth-
ing House.
A GreAT DAY'S CATCH.--Just now
when fishing and stories seem to be in
vogue. Doc. Pierce, of Philipsburg,
comes to the front with the following
from the Journal of that place: The
small catches of trout reported thus far
by our fishermen form a great contrast
to trout fishing stories reported by our
oldest citizens. Some of their stories
may seem fabulous to the younger gen-
eration, bus the men who tell them can-
not be doubted. For instance, Doc
Pierce was telling us to-day about going
out to Black Moshannon some eighteen
years ago to make a professional call.
He took his rod and tackle along and
spent several hours in the exhilerating
sport of fishing for the little red spot-
ted beauties then abounding in such
large numbers in the streams of this
neighborhood. When he wrapped up
his tackle to leave for home, he counted
his haul and found that he had 1524 fine
trout, or 127 dozen. This almost takes
one’s breath, we know, but you must
understand this was fifteen years ago.
Doc said if we desired any evidence oth-
er than his word for the truthfulness of
this story we could consult W. H. Mec-
Causland or H. C. Rice. We took him
at his word. But, oh, how the times
have changed.
SINGULAR CAUSE OF A Dog's DEATH,
—The Williamsport Gazette and Bul-
letin relates how Charley Gabel lost his
dog, as follows: “Charley Gable lost
his valuable English setter dog yester-
day afternoon while exercising him in
the vicinity of the poor house. The
dog was skipping around playfully and
by some means fell over a precipice at a
stone quarry, a distance of over fifty
feet, killing him almost instantly.
The animal was very highly prized by
his owner, who states that he had been
offered one hundred dollars for him on-
ly a short time ago. The dog was well
known among the sporting men of the
city who sympathize with Charley in
his loss.”
SAD OccurrRENCE -—The body of Miss
Sadie Haines, daughter of Simon Haines
formerly of Centre Hall, Centre county,
a young lady only about 17 years of age
was found in the river just a little east
of the town of Ligonier, Indiana, on
the 5th of the present month. She left
Centre Hall but a few years ago 10 join
her parents who had moved west. Miss
Sadie was a neice of D. F. Luse, of
Centre Hall, and her sad death is much
lamented. Itis thought that she was
the victim of foul play and that her
body was placed in the river after
death.
THEIR SILVER WEDDING.—From the
city of brotherly love comes an invita-
tion for us to attend the 25th anniversary
of the wedding of our former distinguish-
ed townspeople, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac
Guggenheimer. The ceremony will be
performed at their residence at 2627
Germantown avenue, on Sunday even-
ing, May 8d, at 8 o’clock. Their many
friends in Bellefonte will be pleased to
know that Mr. and Mrs. Guggenheimer
intend celebrating the quarter of a cen-
tury of their married life by another
ceremony and many wishes that they
may live to the diamond age will be ex-
pressed.

——As the freight train trom Mont-

on Saturday evening, it ran into a drove

that it was necessary to kill them. W.
H. Miller is the unfortunate one who
owned three of the number, and the
fourth belonged to Charles Gares. It
was quite a severe loss to the people
owning the cows, but the train was
running as such speed that it could not
be stopped.
——An amusing thing occurred on
High street on Thursday morning in
which a man, a sulky and a pretty black
mare were the actors. The man was
driving down the street past the Bush
House when he decided to turn around
and go the other way, but the horse
would not turn and in spite of every-
thing he could do, the animal would not
change direction. The man tried per-
suasives of every kind, but all without
avail, as the horse was determined to go
straight ahead and the driver went
with it.
——The Lock Haven Democrat has
the following to say of one of our old
compositors. It is right as far as the
beauty of the girl is concerned, but it
was her sister Miss Rhoda, who was
married and not Laura. “Miss Laura
Peters, a former compositor in the
Bellefonte Watchman office and an ex-
ceedingly pretty young lady, by the
way, was married last evening to
Cheney Hicklen, of Roland, Centre
county, one of the clerk s in the First
National Bank of Bellefonte. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. W.
A. Houck, of the M. E. church.

FrENCHMEN AS TRAIN WRECKERS.
—From the Philipsburg Journal we
glean the following particulars about
the circumstances of the attempt to
wreck a train on the Tyrone and Clear-
field road by two young Frenchmen, on
the evening of February 24th.
On or about the evening of February
24th an obstruction was noticed on the
Tyrone & Clearfield R.R., in whatis
known as the “Slate Cut,” between Os-
ceola and Powelton. The discovery
was made by Hugh McCann's force of
workmen just _a little while before the
passenger train south, which leaves
Philipsburg at 5:07, wasdue. The ob-
struction was an iron drawhead, about
10 inches high, and was testified to by
the witness this morning as being placed
almost tight against the inside of the
rail.
‘When the workmen, consisting of
McCann's two sons and Valentine Mc-
Evoy, came near the obstruction, they
observed two young men, Cassar and
Charley Laforte, brothers, aged about
21 and 18 years, respectively, somewhat
under the influence of liquor, at the
scene of the obstruction, working around
it but making no attempt to remove it.
Seeing the workmen approaching, the
two young men started off, one continu-
ing up the railroad and the other going
down the emibankment just beyond the
mouth of the cut. Mr. McEvoy and the
McCann boys removed the obstruction,
but by this time the Frenchmen were
out of sight. They were not known to
the workmen, but were close enough to
be accurately identified if captured,
The matter was put into the hands of
proper authorities, and quietly but very
successfully worked up. A. description
of the two young men was given to of-
ficer Simler, of Philipsburg, and learn-
ing that parties answering the descrip-
tion were working at the Fulton mine,
near Osceola, on the night shift, went
there one night about nine o’clock and
on a warrant issued by Justice Sand-
ford, of Philipsburg, arrested the young
men, placed hand-cuffson them, brought
them to Philipsburg and placed them in
the lockup.
They were given a hearing before C.
B. Sandford, Esq., Justice of the Peace.
They were identified by the witnesses
of the Commonwealth, Mr. McEvoy
and the McCann boys, whose testimony
was very strongly against them. The
prisoners admit having been at the
scene of the obstruction, and handled
the drawhead, but claim that no such
attempt as is charged against them was
intended.”
They were placed under $1,000 bail
each for appearance at next term of
court and in default of which they were
brought to Bellefonte,
The young men claim they were un-
der the influence of liquor at the time
and did not intend to do any injury.
This makes four prisoners who are
held in the Bellefonte jail on the charge
of train wrecking.
A New ErLecrioN NECESSARY.—On
Monday Judge Furst filed his decision
in the case of the tie vote for council-
men, in the first ward, of Philipsburg.
According to his honor’s idea, from the
evidence submitted, it will be necessary
for the people of that ward to vote again
for Messrs W. H. Sandford and Robert
Hudson. Accordingly ha has set apart
the 12th of May next as the day on
which the new election is te be held.
CounciL MEETS.—On Monday even-
ing, April 20th, the semi monthly meet-
ing of the borough council was held in
its chamber on Howard street. The
principal business before the body was
the purchase of a new pump for the
Water works and the question was left
unsettled.
A communication from P. H. Boal
announced his resignation as borough
engineer and David M. Butts was
forthwith chosen his successor.
A communcation from McCalmont &
Co. bore a request to restrict C. T. Ger-
berich from locating his building on
Dunlap street so far outside the street
line as to be an obstruction to traffic.
Mr. Gerberich was directed to move
the building back.
A petition presented by the people
of the west ward, praying an abatement
of the fearful nuisance caused by the
drains and out-buildings on the proper-
ty of Isanc Haupt, was met by a non-
action on the part of council. It is
strange, but nevertheless a fact, that
council pays less attention to the west-
ward and does less work in that end
than is received by any district in town.
Why this should be we are at a loss to
understand, as the West is just as much
a part of Bellefonte as is the North or
South and pays its portion of tax just as
promptly, If council continues in not
recognizing the warts of the people
over there, there will ba trouble of a
serious nature, for the nuisance of which
they complain is almost unbearable.
Samuel Gault was ordered to inform
the peuple that the curb market would
open May lst.
Other business of a routine character
was transacted and council adjourned,

ly what you wantin the furniture line,

Two Young BARRISTERS.—Too late
for our last week’s issue came the an-
nouncement of the admission of Harry
Keller and Henry C. Quigley to the bar
of Centre county. The former, the olJ-
est son of Col. D. S. Keller, was chief
clerk under Ad’j. Gen. Hastings and is
recognized as one of Bellefonte’s bright-
est young men, while Mr. Quigley, a
student from the office of Hasting and
Reeder, has proved himself a man of in-
telligence and ability. A year at the
Pennsylvania State College and another
at the West Point Military academy
have, to a degree, prepared him nicely
for the profession wearesure he will hon-
wor. Both gentlemen have the WATCH-
MAN’s congratulations, and as a word of
advice we would suggest that you let
your aspiration lead you to the retrieve-
ment of the fallen laurels of Centre’s
bar.
GoNE WITH THE RE-T OF THEM.—
Tt scons strange that so many of Belle-
av
fonte’s prominent people should em--
bark in the same business and the coin-
cidence is all the more striking when it
is known that most of the men from our
town who have gone into coal mining
have been leaders in political circles,
This time it is ex-sheriff W. Miles
‘Walker, who preparatory to opening
extensive collieries, has gone to New
Florence, in Westmoreland county,
where he owns and has leased over sev-
enteen hundred acres of coal land. The
tract extends along the main line of the
Pennsylvania railroad for a mile and a
half and bears four rich veins, measur-
ing seven, two, twelve and four feet re-
spectively. The Sheriff is a capital fel-
low and a shrewd business man, and we
expect ere long to hear of him as one of
the coal barons of the Keystone State.
~——On Friday morning last consta-
ble A.J. Gortcn, of Philipsburg, brought
Cesar and Charley Laforte, two young
Frenchmen, to the county jail. They
are charged with an attempt to wreck a
train on the Tyrore and Clearfield Rail-
road and were unable to secure bail, -

ed him the place where the man, the

passed by his good looks, used to sit and

A Fast RunNNErR.—During a fit of
temporary insanity Zeb White, a man of
60 years, who lives with his wife and
one child at Julian, got out of bed on
Sunday night and ran away. Notwith-
standing the fact that the parties in
pursuit drove the distance between
Julian and Snow Shoe Intersection,
eight miles, in less than an hour, the old
man had beaten them by several mo-
ments, for he had aroused his son’s
household, and was then over powered
and held until he could be taken back.

cated that he had fallen during the

AN ArraAIR OF ELrcaNce.—On or
about the 20th of May the Bellefonte
Club will hold its first reception in its
handsome quarters in the Arcade build-
ing, It is the intention of the members
to make this the swellest and most elab-
orate reception that has ever been given
in Bellefonte, and arrangements are be-
ing made accordingly. Ever since the
organization of the Bellefonte Club it
has held a position of eminence among
the social organizations of our town and
the fact that its membership includes
nearly all our wealthiest and most in-
fluential citizens is sufficient to insure
the greatest success in any of its under-
takings. All the details of arrangement
have not been completed, as yet, so we
are unable to give a definite outline of
the plans. No expense will be spared
to’ make this first entertainment one
long to be remembered by the friends of
the club.

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 or snap. If the 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 build 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
p sold by MeCalmont & Co., of Bellefont e, Pa., at
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 MecCalmoht &
Co. concerning the prices of the same. 14 4°
