——1In the Daily News of Tuesday
the following item appeared : “Altoona-
seems to be having a dearth of fires just

to the times little paper must have been
asleep for the last two days or he has the
power of stretching the meaning of
words around more than other people.
How about that word dearth, Charley ?
A large sale of standing timber

Messrs. Bullett & Co., of Olean, N. Y.,

shall, son of George Marshall, of this
place, who is a telegraph operator at
‘Watsontown, had-attempted to hang
himself in a fit of insanity, which was
circulated last week by a correspondent
of the Williamsport Gazetie and Bulletin,
was a senseless canard set afloat by some
foolish fellow who thought he was do-
ing something smart.
CHARLES CLEARY.—For the second
time Charles Cleary, of Renovo, has
been convicted of murder in the first de-
gree, and the chances are that his life |
will be forfeited as & punishment for his
crime. Naturally there is a great deal
of sympathy for this unfortunate young
man, but the administration of justice
cannot be lessened by feelings of pity.
Cleary is either guilty or not guilty, and
twice the verdict of the jury has been
the sam®. The evidence showed con-
clusively that he fired the fatal shot and
that his act was premeditated. Under
the circumstances there could have been
no other finding, as the murderous
malice which actuated him destroyed
the opportunity for a second degree ver-
dict. If Cleary escapes the gallows now
it will be through the medium of the
Board of Pardons, and even though his
life should be saved life imprisonment
would bethe result. Surely his fate is
a sad one, and the lesson taught should
be heeded by all young men influenced
by the same reckless spirit that has
brought this unfortunate face to face
with an ignominious death.—Gazette
and Bulletin.
ArTooNA'S Big BLAZE.--On Sunday
morning about 1 o’clock, a general alarm
of fire was sounded in Altoona and it
was rung in from 11th Avenue district.
By the time the firemen arrived it was
found that the stables and outhouses
connected with the Rising Sun Hotel
were completely enveloped in flames
and before it could be stopped the Ris-
ing Sun Hotel, the Behm House, the
restaraunt and residence of H. D. Smith,
and the store of the Altoona Hardware
and Supply Co., were completely de-
stroyed, while the Murray building, the
Jaggard building and Daugherty’s
store suffered considerable damage.
The loss will approximate $55,000.
While the firemen were at work at
this fire a second alarm was sent in.
This time it was for Sixteenth Street
and Union avenue where the White
Hall boarding house, livery and sale
stables are located. The stables of this
' trial, and the fact that the accused may
hotel had been fired and in spite of all
that could be done they were entirely
consumed, though the flames were kept
from spreading.
FATAL ACCIDENT AT LOCK HAVEN.—
A sad and fatal accident occurred just |
opposite thedepot in Lock Haven on
Saturday evening, when second 65, a
section of the fast freight west, arrived
there. A young man named George A.
Waters,of Rauchtown,this Clinton coun-
ty,said to have been a new fireman on the
road from Tyrone to Clearfield,made the
attempt to get off the freight about the
middle of the train, but it was going too
fast for him and when his foot touched
the ground he was thrown at full length
right under the wheels, and about
twenty cars passed over his body, mash-
ing him almost into a jelly, asit were,
his brains, pieces of his skull and por-
tions of his entrails being scattered along
the track,
It is said he came down from Tyrone
on Friday night's late train and went
home to visit his mother, who is sick,and
while there she gave him the watch of
his father, the late Harvey Waters, who
was blown up by the bursting of a loco-
motive boiler, a number of years ago.
He was on his way back to Tyrone when
he was killed. The watch alluded to
was on his person and was a handsome
hunting case gold watch, but was
rolled out flat by the car wheels.
Mgrs. MarGARET KELLER.—The
death of Mrs. Margaret Keller, which
occurred at her late home in Boalsburg,
on Saturday afternoon, about three
o'clock, removes from that community
one of the oldest and most esteemed of
its residents. Having attained the age
of 77 years her long life had been one
of purity and goodness, and the thirty-
five years of life spent in the old man-
sion in which she died only tend to
heighten the tender feelings with which
her memory will be cherished.
Of a family of nine children the fol-
lowing are living : Mrs. J. W. Rhone,
of this place; Miss Clara and Miss Sal-
lie, Col. D. S. Keller, our distinguish-
ed townsman, Mrs. G. C. Hall, of
Honesdale, and B. Frank Keller, of
Washingtor..
Deceased had been ill with heart
disease for about two weeks and all of
the children except Col. D. 8. Keller
were at her bedside as the light of her
life went out. Funeral services were
held on Tuesday morning.
SURROUNDED BY FIrE.—Several
teamsters employed on’ Ferney Run had
a thrilling experience last week with
mountain fires. The flames came sweep-
ing towards them so rapidly that before
they knew it they were surrounded by
the fire. There was but one thing to be
done and that was to fight the fire with
fire, consequently the leaves were fired
around them, and in that way the men
and horses escaped being burned.
——The Boston Record of last Thurs-
day publishes the fall particulars of the
tragic death of Miss Bertha Everett, of
Philipsburg, which occurred in the
Parker House in that city on the 24th
of April, Itcompletely dispels all
suspicion of foul play as was at first
suspected.
Bellefonte is going to have a
good old fashioned 4th of July.
The Orvis-Keller wedding last
night brought many guests from a dis-
tance.
——The well known face of Mr. W.
K. Calvert, of Altoona, was seen on
our streets on Wednesday. Lively and
jolly as ever.
——John G. Love, Esq., was called
to Clifton Springs, on Tuesday, on ac-
count of the illness of h's wife who had
gone there for her health.
——Every one interested in a 4th of
July celebration is requested to meet in
the Arbitration room, in the Court
House, this (Friday) evening, at 8
o'clock. Arrangements for a good old
fashioned celebration will be perfected.
——Mr. M. R. Adams,one of Philips-
burg’s respected citizens, was a juror at
court during the fore part of the week.
During his stay in Bellefonte he made
a pleasant call on the WarcEMAN
office.
—J. F. Batcheler, of Lock Haven,
Las received a contract for building 109
miles of railroad on the Pennsylvania,
Lehigh and Eastern R. R., running
from Tomhicken in Pennsylvania to
Matamoras in New York State.
——The invitations for the wedding
of Miss Lillie Aikens to George Bayard
Johnston, both of Bellefonte, were issu_
ed on Wednesday afternoon. The cere-
mony will be performed at the bride's
handsome home on Wednesday evening,
May 20th, at 5 o’clock.
——The graduating class at the Penn-
sylvania State College will be enter-
tained on its last day at college by an
address by Col. A. C. McClure, of the
Times. "91 is to be congratulated on
securing such an able man to make its
commencement address.
The verdict in the Cleary case
was to be expected. The defense did
not make a stronger case than at the first
have been drunk when he killed Paul
did not affect his responsibility under
the circumstances. It now remains to
be seen whether the prisoner will get
another trial.
——Rev. Hicks was not so far off
after all. His predictions for frost and
snow between the 4th and 7th of May
were laughed at last month when peo-
ple were wearing linen coats and using
fans on the streets, but those who saw
the snow flakes flying about on Wed-
nesday morning made up their minds
that the western prognosticator knows
something about it after all.
——Among the many flattering things
we have heard of our town none have
been so full of expression as the state-
ment made by Judge Christian, of Vir-
ginia, that in all his travels he has never
seen its equal, and, with enthusiasm, he
pronounces it the prettiest town of its
size in America. The Judge is the
husband of the lady who was recently
Mrs. Thos. R. Reynolds,and is a man
who has traveled extensively and
knows whereof he speaks.
——During the prevalence of the fire
in Aitoona last Sunday morning when
It was at its height, H. M. Mitchell was
standing in the door of Stewart’s res-
taurant watching the flames across the
street when he suddenly sank to the
ground. He was carried inside and a
physician summoned, but the man was
dead. Death was due to heart failure.
Mr. Mitchell was a man about 51 years
ofage and was employed as book-keeper
for Julius Blumenthall, cigar dealer.
——On last Saturday afternoon, May
2nd, the Amateurs of State College de-
feated Philipsburg’s ball team, on the
College grounds. The Amateurs are
just little bits of fellows and it seamed
rather funny to sea them do up the big
men from over the mountain. The
game was void of interest up to the last
inning when Philipsburg pulled itself
together and run her score up to six, but
the Amateurs were still ahead and the
game ended with a score of 7 to 6 in
their favor.
ONE HUNDRED MILLION ToNS,.—The
explorations of coal lands in the Beech
Creek region is progressing under the
superintendence of Prof. Isaac Harvey.
In giving Mr. Harvey’s estimate of the
quantity of coal in that locality recent-
ly, the figures were too low, owing to a
typographical error. The territory em-
braces the lands owned by Gov. Beaver,
Maryland Mining Company, Saylor’s
Mines and the Lehigh Company’s best
territory, and extends from Little Sandy
to Big Run. The area is from 12,000 to
15,000 acres. Mr. Harvey's estimate is
that there are at least one hundred mil-
lion tons of coal in mineable condition
along Beech Creek.—Lock Haven E:-
press.
A Special MEETING of Gregg

IN Memory of Elizabeth Gardner
Jenkins, wife of Wm. Jenkins, who
died very suddenly at Howard on Sat-
urday, May 2, 1891, in the 51st year of
her life.
For me, my heart, that erst did go
Most like a tired child at a show,
That sees through tears the mummers leap,
Wouald now its wearied vision close,
Would childlike on His love repose
Who giveth his beloved Heer,
RS. BrowNING.
Every day we are called upon to feel
that God’s ways are truly not our ways,
and how wisely and beneficiently does
he remind us that in the midst of life
we are in death. Surrounded by the
beauties of this earth in His kind-
ness, He yet would have us remember
“Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories fade
away.” And shall we not the rather
rejoice when we realize that our best
loved one is sweetly resting under the
shadow of his wing ?
‘We join the husband and son of Mrs.
Jenkins in mourning the loss of an
affable, loving and lovable woman, in
all humility filling her little corner of
the world with pleasure for herself and
others while strength was given her to
do it.
For years she was a faithful member
of the Presbyterian church, but dur-
ing her later life, when the Disciple
church was established here, was one of
its devoted attendants. She has now
but transferred her membership to a
higher church where the Divine Shep-
herd ever tands his sheep.
“After life's fitful fever she sleeps
well.”
A UseruL INVENTION.—Mr, H. D.
Landis, of this place, has received a
patent for a thill coupling which is a
great improvement on the present
method of coupling buggies, carriages,
sleighs or any conveyance using a pole
or shafts. The device consists in con-
necting the thill coupling with the clip
by means of a pin bolt without a nut.
The bolt is kept in place by a screw
thread immediately under the head,
which screws into the jaw of the clip,
instead of by a nut at the end of the
bolt. The advantage of this is evident
to those who have had the experience
of the nut becoming detached and fall-
ing off. From such loss of the nut, and
its necessary conseqnence, accidents are
liable to happen. In addition to the
screw thread under the head of the bolt,
further security 1sebtained by having the
screw head slotted and a cold rolled
wire spring passing through the slot.
By this arrangement it is impossible for
the bolt to become displaced or detach-
ed. The device is perfected by the in-
troduction of an anti-rattling corrugated
spring, which effectually prevents the
thill from rattling. The patent was
obtained on the 29th of April.
Don't WANT FoREIGNERS.—The
Rockhill Iron and Coal company, who
operate extensive iron furnaces at Rock-
hill, Huntingdon county,employ a large
number of Hungarians and other for-
eigners at their furnaces and ore banks.
For some time past there has been con-
siderable muttering among the Ameri-
can employes on account of the com-
pany employing so many foreigners.
Lately the managers of the Rockhill
company have been receiving anony-
mous letters to the effect that if the com-
pany did not cease employing so many
Hungarians there would be irouble.
Late Saturday night the citizens of
Rockhill, and the neighboring borough
of Orbisonia, were aroused by a terrific
explosion in the Hungarian quarter.
Dynamite had been placed under three
houses occupied by Hungarian families
and the inmates narrowly escaped with
their lives. One of the houses had an
end blown out and the others were badly
shattered. The Hungarians are badly
frightened, The company have posted
notices offering $250 reward for the
apprehension of the guilty parties.
He Has IT ALREADY.—Among the
“matters both important and humorous,
as picked up and paragraphed by the
ubiquitous local reporter’ of the Daily
Gazette, of Tuesday, was the following
‘keen and acute observation.” ,
“That the gents’ furnishing establish-
ments in Bellefonte are not up to date.
They haven’t the black collar, which is
the latest. They will get them when
the season has gone forever.”
Until this article appeared we had al-
ways believed that newspaper men were,
to a degree at least, charitable, but when
a writer who has had a “corner” on
biack collars ever since we have known
him, comes out and twits our furnish-
ing goods men because they are not up
to the times, the only thing we can sur-
mise is that he has hopes of supplying
thair trade with some of the ones he
annually discards,
——The wedding of Miss Annie Oryis,
second daughter of ex-Judge John H.
Orvis, to Mr. Harry Keller, a young at-
torney of this place, was celebrated at
the bride’s home on East Linn street,
last evening at 6 o'clock. Rev. Miles
0. Noll, of the Reformed church, per-
formed the ceremony, and Miss Ohn-
macht played the wedding march. The
party looked exceptionally beautiful,
and everything passed off in the most
successful manner. We will give all
the particulars next week.

reputation so general for merit and ex-
cellence as that of Wallace & Co’s Great

Three Ring Circus. It has the enviable
record of presenting a multitude of the
best acts and features under canvas, and
of exhibiting a large collection of the
rarest animals and birds known to
natural history. The exhibition will be
on Tuesday, May 19th.
Fire IN TYRONE.—A fire broke out
about five o'clock last Sunday morning
in Conrad's opera house in Tyrone and
the building was soon destroyed. The
flames originated in the upper part of
the building above the stage, and quick-
ly spread to all the other parts of the
building. Mrs. J. McCann & Co.,
millinery, and Charles Conrad, clothier,
occupying the stores on the first floor,
saved their stock. “One of the Finest,”
the company that played in the house
the previous night, suffered the loss
of their baggage.
The value of the building is believed
to be about $25,000. It was one of the
prettiest in the State, and was owned by
W. Fish Conrad. One statement is that
the building was fully insured, while
another is that the amount of insurance
will not exceed $11,000. The origin of
the fire is unknown.
Litre Business TRANSACTED. —
The May meeting of council assem-
bled in the chamber on Monday even.
ing. Members Bauer, Longacre, How-
ley, Hillibish, Gault, clerk Mitchell and
president Potter were present to attend to
the business brought before them.
A West warder complained again
about the nuisance in the rear of the
Haupt property and council appointed
a committee to investigate, with power
to abate.
A written communication from resi:
‘dents of the South ward called the at-
tention of council to the fact that the
alley from Steele Hunter's place to the
Lewistown turnpike had been closed
and could not be used.
The Water committee reported that
H. H. Harshbarger had been made
water assessor and that he would be
accompanied on his rounds by engineer
Ryan. The new pump will be placed
in the old water works building and a
foundation for it was directed to be
made.
The Fire and Police committee pre-
sented the need of new hose, for the fire
companies, but definite action was not
teken. gi
The Market committee reported the
curb market in full blast, and then coun-
cil decided upon the following Board
of Water Assessors, who will fix the
tax from the data collected by Mr.
Harshbarger, consisting of Messrs. D. Z.
Kline, Chas. Smith and Isaac Mit-
chell. Adjourned.
ARBOR DAY AT THE HIGH SCHOOL.—
Friday, May 1st, the day set apart by
decree of the Governor of this great
commonwealth as the one on which its
citizens were exhorted to plant some tree
or vine, was celebrated at our High
School with fitting ceremonies, the
most interesting of which was the prize
oratorical contest for the medal offered
by Major Wm. F. Reynolds of this
place. The assembly room of the build-
ing was tastefully decorated and arranged
for the occasion, and everything had
been placed where it would have the
most pleasing effect upon the many
visitors,
Promptly at 2.80 Mr. Johnsonbaugh
announced the invocation by Dr. Laurie,
after which Miss Mary Schofield played
a very pretty piano selection. Then the
contestants were announced, one after
another, as follows: Mary Wright, A
Legend of Bregenz; Ella Twitmire,
Becalmed ; Chas. Garner, The Blind
Preacher ; Vocal trio by Misses Jennie
Lukenbach, Ella Twitmire and Grace
Lukenbach ; Geo. Brandon, The De-
fence of Hofer; Rolan Curtin, The Ve-
teran Soldier; Harry Gerberich, In-
dependence Day; Instrumental solo,
Mary Schofield ; Jennie Twitmire, The
Drummer Boy’s Burial ; Edith Austin,
The Preacher’s Vacation; Vocal solo,
Ella Twitmire ; Bessie Stroop, Kit Kar-
son’s Ride; Rosa Levy, The Painter
of Seville; Vocal duet, Jennie Luken-
bach and Ella Twitmire.
The selections were very well taken,
indeed, and we were really very much
surprised at the general excellence of
the performance. During the vocal
duet by the Misses Lukenback and
Twitmire, the judges, Dr. Laurie, Rev.
Miles Noll and Dist. Atty. J. C. Meyer,
adjourned to another room, where they
concluded that Miss Ella Twitmire had
excelled in the requirements of the con-
test. She was consequently offered the
option of the medal or fifteen dollars in
money. Miss Bessie Stroop and Miss
Mary Wright received honorable men-
tion for their fine performance.
The work inside all done, the assem- !
blage adjourned to the grounds where,
neath the sturdy old oak the services
i incident upon the planting of the ’91
class tree were held. Kline Woodring
made the address and the tree was plant-
ed and started with the cheers of the
great crowd,

A VALUABLE Horse DROWNED.—
The handsome stallion owned by Ira H.
Smith, was drowned in the axe factory
dam at Mill Hall yesterday afternoon
under peculiar circumstances. John
Reeder, the driver of the horse, was
coming in from a trip to the country,
and while passing the dam the horse
suddenly made a dash for the water and
piunged in. Reeder, the driver, nar-
rowly escaped being drowned, as he be-
came entangled in the harness. Mr.
Smith went up to Mill Hall this morn-
ing and had the carcass of the horse re-
moved from the dam and buried.— Lock
