eense, and fined $2.50,

over night.

recent meeting of the Castle thirty per-
sons signified their willingness to join the
Commandery, and gave their orders for
uniforms.
Mrs. T. P. Rynder, of Houtzdale,
recently of Milesburg, who is a poetess
and who has written some very pretty
things, is in receipt of a letter of recent
date written to her personally by
John G. Whittier, the venerable and
renowned poet. It is quite an honor to
receive a letter from such a man.
——Meade Logan, baggage master on
the Bald Eagle Valley express, died at
Lock Haven last Monday, of consump-
tion, at the age of 34. Although a suf-
ferer for some time he was unwilling to
give up his work and made his last trip
over the Bald Eagle Valley road on
Saturday.
——The banquet given by Constans
Commandery, K. T., of Bellefonte, in

——Four indictments, charging viola_
tions of the liquor laws of this Common-
wealth, were ignored by the Grand

creases the fees of the District Attorney
and the Clerk of the Court of Quarter
Sessions, but it doesn’ help tax-
payers.— Huntingdon Monitor.
——Town pride is a good thing to
have. TItis the key note of industrial
advancement and banner of success. No
town can get long unless its citizens
Rave pride in it which will make them
work to keep abreast of the other
towns of the country. If they do not
eare what becomes of the town, it will
degenerate very rapidly. This should
be borne in. mind by the people of this
aud every other town.
——Huntingdon is going to have a
ively Fourth of July celebration this

in by the Posts of the Grand Army of
the Republic, Camps of Patriotic Order

vania, National Guard from Bedford,
Co. A from their own town, and the
Juniata 'Wheelmen. A game of ball
will be played in the afternoon between
Huntingdon and Bedford.
Councr. MEETS.—Monday evening
was regular meeting night for the
borough council and the meeting was
called by president Potter with six
members present. After the reading
of the minutes of the previous meeting,
and their adoption, business was done
as follows :
S. DD. Rayand L. A. Schaffer asked
permission to open an alley through
property owned by them south of Logan
street. The street committee and en-
gineer were ordered to examine the
place and if practicable an ordinance
declaring it open will be made.
Jno. Wagner and Rob’t Ray asked
that a,board-walk be built along Spring
street form Curtin to Beaver. Referred
to the proper committee.
Annie Miller prayed an exoneration
from taxes. Referred to Finance com-
mittee.
The Street committee reported the
condition of the side walks in town and
the dilapidated condition of most of
them made rather a lengthy report. Itis
a shame that Bellefonte should tolerate
such walks as are found on most of our
streets, There seems to be no attempt,
whatever, on the part of property own-
ers to have the pavements in front of
their homes in decent condition, and
since they are lacking in this respect
council should take decisive steps in the
matter. Tilting boards, squirting bricks
and holes that have no boards to cover
them are always in tue way of ped-
estrians.
An arc light for the east end of Linn
street was asked for and referred to the
proper committee, and a request for
summer uniforms for the policemen was
met with the perplexing fact that the
treasury was short of funds ; so our gay
police will have to swelter awhile
yet.
All other committees, except that on
water, made reports, but they contained
nothing of interest. Adjournment.

A MornER Saves HER CHILD.—
Mrs. John Englert lives on Jay street,
between Railroad and Walnut. Yester-
day her two-and-a-half-year-old daugh-
ter, Pearl, crossed the street to where
some boys were playing with fire and
her clothes caught. On hearing the
children scream Mrs. Englert ran and
the first object she saw was her little
girl runing toward the house, all ablaze.
Mrs. E. ran out and tore all the clothes
off the child quickly, burning her hands
severely while doing 50, and owing to
her promptness the child escaped with
a burn on her side and was out playing
this morning. The lady herself, how-
ever, was obliged to attend to her house-
hold duties with her hands wrapped
up.—Lock Haven Democrat of Tues-
day.

A PorurArR EMPLOYER.—Among
the enviable positions which men of to-
day occupy there is none in which dis-
position plays such a prominent part as in
that of employer. No better opportun-
ity is given for the display of temper-
raent than in the relation of the man-
ager to the workmen.
When the firm of McCalmont & Co.
was foundad for the sale of implements,
lime, grain, etc., Col. Wm. Shortlidge
was placed at the manager’s desk of the
mammoth store on High street, and Mr.
Robert McCalmont took charge ot the
work at the quarries, kilns and elevator
below town, 1
We desire to call your attention to
this last named gentleman and add our
testimonial to that of every man under
him. For the last six years. he has su-
perintended the work of a small army
of employees, and as time passed the re-
lations between them have become so
close that nothing but praise is heard of
him, Every one of his men delight to
tell you of his kindness and watchfulness
for their interests. Surely such men are
to be envied for the pusition they fill in
the hearts of the laboring interests of
a community. We can think of no bet-
ter or more judicious man to be superin-
tendent of such a firm as McCalwont &
Co. than just genial and warm hearted
“Bob.”
AIKENS -- JoENSTON NUPTIALS, —
On Wednesday atternoon at five o'clock
Dr. Laurie pronounced the ceremony
which made Miss Lilian Aikens, eldest
daughter of Mr. J. A. Aikens of this
place, the wife of Mr. George Bayard
Johnston.
As early as four o'clock guests began
to arrive and by the time appointed for
the wedding the beautifully decorated
and well appointed rooms of the Aik-
ens’ home, on the corner of Allegheny
and Bishop streets, were filled with
guests to witness the happy event.
Promptly at five o'clock Miss Effie
Hamilton commenced the march by
Mendolssohn, and Messrs John Bayard
and James Harris lined an aisle, with
white ribbon, extending from an alcove
in the parlor out through the library,
and across the hall to the foot of the
stairs. Through this passage the party
entered, first Mr. Charles Richards and
Miss Emma Aikens, a sister of the bride ;
then Mr. Hard. P. Harris and Miss Eva
Hoover, of Philipsburg ; they were tol-
lowed by Miss Aikens leaning upon the
arm of her intended. The bridesmaids
and groomsmen separated at the arch
of the aicove, and the young couple
were met right under a beautiful wed-
ding bell, of bridal roses, carnations and
smilax, by Dr. Laurie, of the Presby-
terian church, who made the usually
short ceremony of his church exceed-
ingly pretty and impressive. After he
had pronounced them man and wife he
tendered his congratulations, and then
the members of the Johnston and Aik-
ens family, who had been standing in
the alcove, came forward and greeted the
new daughter and son.
During the reception which followed
we had time to notice the handsome
gowns worn by the ladies, and the effect
produced by the many electric lights was
simply entrancing. The beauty and
grace of the women lent an especial
charm to the occasion. Miss Emma
Aikens was dressed in pink crepe de-
chene-en-princesse, with daisy ribbon
and cream roses. Miss Eva Hoover
wore a beautiful gown of green crepe
de chene with lace and lilac blooms.
Miss Effie Hamilton looked handsome
in a yellow striped satin grenadine with
pansies, and very becoming costumes
were worn by the Misses Harper, Harris
and Bryson.
After the reception a banquet was
served in the dancing hall and the
menu embraced all the delicacies known
to the caterer’s art. The party were at
the tables over two hours, and during
the whole of that time servants were
busy with the many courses. The ban-
quet over, dancing began, and the sweet
strains of Frank Dicillo’s [talian or-
chestra inspired the young people to the
enjoyment of the waltz.
The bride isa young lady of rare
musical ability, she being a graduate of
the Mountain Seminary, at Birming-
ham, and looked very pretty indeed as
she stood, clad;in heavy white faille and
brocade en train, with white ostrich tips
and veil, leaning upon the arm of her
husband.
Mr. Johnston, is a son of Mr. John
Johnston, who for so many years filled
the postmastership with such credit to
himself and his party, and is a young
man of sound judgment and good quali-
ties. He is a machinist by trade and is
a niechanic of a superior class,
The wedding, banquet and dance
formed one of the most enjoyable and
socially splendid events that Bellefonte
has ever known,and made a very fitting
denouement for Mr. and Mrs. John-
ston. After the tour they will go to
house keeping in the Boal house on
Spring street.
The presents were numerous and cost-
ly, and many guests from a distance
were present.
Eprtors IN CounciL.—The Juniata
Vulley editors had a big time at their
annual meeting held at the Leister
House, Huntingdon, last Friday. Four-
teen newspapers Were represented. After
the election of officers for the next year,
Roanoke, Va., was unanimously select-
ed as the objective point for this year’s
trip, August 24th the day the asso-
ciation will leave. An invitation
was received aud, accepted to take
a trip over the Newport and
Sherman’s Valley railroad some time
during the summer.
After this business was transacted,
by invitation theeditors paid a visit to
the Reformatory, and after making a
caraful investigation they were invited
to a sumptuous repast to which all did
ample justice.
Mrs. John Stover, of Hublers-
burg, who died on Monday, was buried
on Wednesday. Mrs, Stover was 38
years of age and leaves a husband and
one child to mourn their loss. Treasur-
er Gramley and Rev. M, O. Noll, of the
Reformed church, attended the funeral.
Tae CHURCH CasE.—In the case of
the Disziple church at Howard, which
has been pending for some time, an
argument was held before Master D. S.
Keller on Friday. The hearing took all
day and the speeches of Rev’s. I. Mitch-
elland W. S. Hayden,and J. L. Spang-
ler, became very heated attimes. As
yet the master has not rendered his de-
cision in the matter.

’91 GRADUATES.—The eighth annual
commencement exercises of the Belle-
fonte High School were held in Gar-
man’s Opera House yesterdy (Thursday)
afternoon and evening, in tne presence
of a large crowd of admiring friends and
relatives of the graduates.
After music by the orchestra, and the
invocation, the Salutatory address was
made by Jennie: Twitmire, in a most
engaging manner, followed by a ring-
ing oration, by Kline Woodring, on
that always interesting subject, ‘Poland
and her Heroes.” Edith Austin read a
neat essay entitled “Night Brings out
the Stars ;”’ some very practical sugges-
tions were made by George N. Brandon
in an oration on “The Education Re-
quired for Business ;”* and Charles Gar-
ner, Jr., orated on the popular topic
of “Immigration and Labor.” Tha
Valedictory was an excellent effort by
Rosa B. Levy on a subject entitled
{Nt Finished, but Begun.”
1 evening exercises opened with
music by the orchestra, followed by a
vocal ¢“ Welcome’ from the school. The
address of the evening was delivered by
General Hastings, which was in his
usual entertaining style and replete
with much good counsel to the young
people whose graduation had prepared
them for the active duties of life. Then
followed an address and presentation of
diplomas by D. F. Fortney, Esq. Presi-
dent of the School Board, who is always
on hand on such occasions to display
the interest, he takes in the cause of
education. Then a quartette composed
of Misses Twitmire, DeSylvia, Moore
and Lukenbach sang “The Angelus” in
a manner that charmingly closed the
exercises, and a Benediction, followed
by the “Assembly Exit’’ by the orches-
tra, wound up one of the most successful
commencements of the Bellefonte High
School.
DeatH oF CoLoNEL RoBERT Mc-
FarLaNE.—Last Moriday noon Belle-
fonte was painfully surprised by the an-
nouncement of the sudden death of Col,
Robert McFarlane, which occurred at
12 o'clock in his room ir the Crider
stone building on High street near the
Diamond. He was able to be at his
hardware store in the morning, but he
had hardly reached ithere until he fwas
taken ill and conveyed to his room Jand
medical aid was summoned. His ail-
ment was heart trouble with which he
had been affected for some time. Every
a'tention was paid him by his attend-
ants, but his condition grew worse until
12 o'clock when he died seated in a
chair with his head resting against a
dressing case. The Colonel had a severe
attack last fall which it was feared
would prove fatal, but he recovered and
during the winter was apparently in
good but not vigorous health. The de-
ceased was the son of Mr. James McFar-
lane, having been born 63 years ago on
the farm near Boalsburg now occupied
by his brother William, and has siace
been a resident of this county. At the
opening of the rebellion he was chiefly
instrumental in raising Co. G of the
148th Reg. P. V., of which he was elect-
ed Captain, and was subsequently elect-
ed Lieut. Colonel of that Regiment,
James A. Beaver being Colonel. He
commanded the regiment at the battle
of Gettysburg, the Colonel being absent
on account of serious wounds. Since
the conclusion of the war he resided
chiefly in Bellefonte, accumulating a
competency in the hardware and other
business. He was a man of sterling
character whose excellent qualities se-
cured for him the esteem of the com-
munity of which he was a prominent
and useful member.
——The fires along Bald Eagle
mountains are proving quite an attrac-
tion to our citizens. Every evening
strollers on Linn and Curtin street can
be seen perched on the fences wate hing
tke wosk of the flames.
Gus Smith, the noted Bellefonte
tinner, so long in the employ of McFar-
lane’s hardware store there, is now work-
ing for Mr. Baker in this city, having
been here several days. Mr. Smith
rather likes Lock Haven and thinks he
will move his family down, if work con-
tinues as brisk as now. It will be a real
novelty to have one family in Lock Ha-
ven by the name of Smith.—Loc% Haven
Democrat.
JOHN MALLORY’S DEATH.—The
death of this respected man occurred in
Altoona on Thursday morning last,
from heart disease: His remains were
brought here for burial and on Sunday
afternoon a large number of people as-
sembled at the home of his daughter,
Mr. Chas. Heverly, on Pine street, to
pay their last tribute to a departed
friend, Maliony formerly lived here
and for a long time operated the black-
smith shop, on Howard street, which
has since be:n turned intoa laundry.
His life was simple and honorable and
his children here and elsewhere mourn
the loss of a fond and loving father.
——Novelties in furniture and wall
paper are the order of the day at E.
Brown, Jr’s on Bishop street.
UNLIKE DELAMATER.—Among the
distinguished visitors to our city Satur-
day afternoon, were ex-Senator Wallace
and Judge Krebbs, who were pleasant-
ly entertained at the home of Hon.
J. N. Casanova. They were warmly
greeted by our people, and the Senator's
many friends were very much gratified
to see him looking so well, and to know
that he is coming out of his recent fican-
cial trouble with clean skirts, paying
nis creditors dollar for dollar, evincing
not a semblance of dishonesty. His
straightforward, honest attitude in the
calamity that so unfortunately overtook
him has won for him the admiration of
even those who are opposed to him po-
litically.-— Philipsburg Jourual.
——If you have not already visited
E. Brown, Jr's new store on Bishop
street you should do so at once. Great
bargains await you.
Tae Court House FIrep.—On
Monday morning as Bartram Galbraith,
the venerable court crier and janitor of
the Court House, was going his usual
round of inspection he was surprised to
find that, during the night, some mis-
creant had made an attempt to burn the
building.
Standing at the head of the left flight
of stairs was a wooden box in which
paper, shavings and other combustibles
made up an excellent receptacle for the
torch of the incendiary. From all ap-
pearances there was an attempt to throw
a lighted paper into this box, but his
haste to get away before the flames could
be discovered, the burning paper missed
its mark and fell upon the floor where it
burned a large hole in the matting and
went out. Mr. Galbraith says that the
work was done between twelve o’clock
Sunday night and five on Monday
morning as he had been around just be-
fore twelve and everything wasall right
then.
We can-rot see the motive any-
one would have for burning the Court
House, for surely no one entertains any
enmity for Centre county. It was pro-
bably done by some one who wanted a
job as night watchman.
