| AN Errort To REVIVE THE CoUNTY
| Farrs.—There was a meeting last Fri-
| day evening at the Brockerhoff House
| of a number of prominent citizens of
our town which had for its object the
establishment of an o:ganization for the
purpose of restoring tie old time agri-
cultural anniversary in the shape of a
county fair, in connection with a track
suitable for the trial of speed. Mc. John
Meese was called to preside over the
meeting and G. M. Bush acted as Sec-
retary. It was reported that Messrs.
J. M. Bunnell, John Waite, George B.
Brandon, Daniel Garman and others
interested in the enterprise, had looked
around for a site suitable for a purpose
of this kind, and it was suggested that
land on the Beaver and Humes farms,
just out of town, might be procured and
would be suitable. The location that
seemed to meet with the most favor is on
the Brockerhoff farm near Roopsburg,
where there is a meadow said to contain
enough ground for the required track,
besides enough elevated land on which
the buildings to be used by exhibitors
could be located.
The following committees were ap-
pointed : On location and price of
ground: Philip Beezer, George B.
Brandon, John Waite and J. M. Bun-
nell ; on grading the grounds and fenc-
ing the same: S. M. Buck, William
Lyon and Thomas Shoemaker. It was
then moved and seconded that these
committees go out to see the Brockerhoft
site, and take with them Clement Dale,
Esq., to do the surveying. John Waite
assured those present that this piece of
ground could be purchased fora reason-
able sum of money. It was the general
opinion of those present that this would
be the most suitable place.
A Bie Prick wor Trour.—Consta-
ble Kelly, of this city, went to Philadel-
phia about two weeks ago to interview
Thomas B. Hoffman in regard to some
trout fishing of his in waters controlied
by the Big Bear Fishing club, of this
city. Thomas, not desiring to be both-
ered any further with the matter,
Landed over thesum of $100, the pen-
alty for such an offense. The members’
of the above club express themselves to
the effect that they will prosecute to the
extent of the law every pecson infring-
ing upon their rights. The act of June
3, 1878, under which private streams
are protected, is very plain on the sub-
ject. Section 21 provides as follows:
“Any person trespassing on any lands
for the purpose of taking fish from any
private pond, stream or spring, shall
be deemed guilty of trespass, and
in addition to damages recoverable
by law shall be liable to the awner,
lessee or occupant in a penalty of $100
for every such offense.” — Williamsport
Gazette § Bulletin.
A Farraress HusBaxp.—A man by
the name of Wilson, whose wife was
formerly a Miss Weaver, and who
lived in a house a few doors below the
jail on Church street, skinned out he
other day with all the money he had in
his pocket, not making any provision for
his wife whatever, although she was in
a delicate condition. And he not only
left her thus but took a little money she
had laid aside in a bureau drawer, thus
leaving her utterly destitute. The next
thing of course was a constable’s sale
followed by the hauling away of the
furniture. Mrs. Wilson's father came
and took her away yesterday and she
will thus be saved from suffering
the pangs of hunger, but the husband of
hei’s deserves a horsewhipping, while
any creditor who would thus trouble
and disiress a poor woman, selling the
bed from under her, as it were, is no
better than he should be.—Lock Haven
Democrat.
CLAIMED To BE WILsoN.—District
Attorney Meyer continues to gat notices
of arrested persons who are alleged to
look like Wilson the escaped murder of
Harry Waterhouse. The latest is a man
arrested in Madison, Wisconsin, and
detained in jail at that place. A picture
of him sent on to Mr. Meyer is said to
be ga wood likeness of Wilson, and the
description of him is also similar. An-
other circumstance which is said to have
a strong bearing is that the man in Madi-
sun refused to have his picture taken
and it was done against his will. But
there is nothing 1n this,as most prisoners
object to being photographed,they being
afraid hat the pictures may be used
against then.
——The Jersey Shere correspondent
of the Williamsp rt Sun sent that paper
the following: “Some of the trout fish-
ers of this town went up to McElbattan
run, at Wayne, the otherday, and found
two or three parties who were robbing
the stream in order to supply the Lock
Haven hotels. %7hat was still worse, it
took but a short time to satisfy them
that trout were being killed by the hun-
dred by the use of dynamite.”
——The reception given by the Belle-
fonte Club last night was an affair of
splendor and elegance. The handsome
rooms of the club were beautifully dec-
crated with palms, lilies and ever-
greens, and presented a bewildering pro-
fasion of lovely women. Stopper and
Fiske’s from Williamsport
furnished the music for the dancing.

The ruined walls of jthe Tyrone
| chia house, which was burned some
time ago, fell on Thursday of last week
during the storm, and a young man
named Harry Sutton, who was passing,
was caught by the mass of falling brick
and plaster and buried. He was rescued
alive, but was badly hart. His collar
bone was broken and he received some
bad scalp wounds.
——>Somebody has discovered that
the peach trees in the northern
part of the State are infested
with millions of minute microbes that
have attached themselves to and will
certainly destroy all the leaves, and con-
sequently destroy all the young fruit.
Is there noend to the enemies of this
delicious fruit? Having escaped the
May frost, must it be destroyed by a
set of dirty microbes ?
—Durfhig a terrific thunderstorm
on Thursday evening of last week, a
gang of railroad engineers near Hunting-
don took shelter under a freight train,
some of the men sitting on the rails un-
der the curs. They. had scarcely gained
their position before fourteen of the
men were shocked by lightning which
passed along the rail. Oliverand Alex-
ander Moore and Patric Ross were se-
verly injured. The others soon revived.
——Hon. John Walls, of Lewisburg,
died on Thursday of last week, in the
Tniversity hospital, at Philadelphia, at
the extremely old ageof 71 years. About
three weeks before he had an operatiou
performel for a cancer located on his
face. When he was 78 years old he
was afilicted with a cancer on the right
arm and the arm was amputatted. He
then learned to write with his left-
hand. The deceased was the father-in-
law of Judge Bucher, of Lewisburg ;
he was an associate judge, fora while, of
Union county, and served a term in the
State Senate.
—— Judging from statements made us
by Col. Richie of Lock Haven, in a let-
ter under date of June 5th, there can be
but little reliance placed in the allega-
tions of C. J. Chester, whose letter
wes published in the WaATcaMAN of
May 29th. We neither know CHESTER
nor anything about the matters of which
he writes, but if he has made a false
statement of the treatment he received
at the hands of the G. A. R. posts of
Lock Haven, or of the Soldiers Home at
Erie, the columns of the WATCHMAN
are at the service of those who desire tu
correct them.
— The recent census of Johnstown,
which now includes the various
boroughs which were swept by the flood,
shows that there hasbeen an actual in-
crease of 1,258 souls, notwithstanding
the loss of 1889. Moreover, the town
has been substantially rebuilt, seven
new churches indicating the growth of
the place in buildings of all kinds. One
of the conspicuous new features of the
city is the hospital built as a memorial
out of the surplus funds contributed for
the relief of the inhabitants. Already
the flood of two years ago is little more
than a memory-—a very sad memory for
those who lost retatives and friends in
the great rush of waters, — Ez.
A New Post Orricr.—-The Mill-
heim Journal of the 4th inst, says:
«J. H. DeLong, the ‘postmaster at the
new office “Livonia,” which has lately
been established at the east end of Brush
Valley, writes us that he has received
his supplies and that everything is in
first-class working orderin the new office
that they mailed 63 letters and 4 postal
cards the other day, that he has sworn
in George B. Stover as lan assistant and
employed George W. Adams as mail
carrier. The mail carrier will leave
Livonia regularly every Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday noon, wait at
Loganton until the mail arrives from
Lock Haven and Coburn and bring it
here the same evening.”
Ex-SexaTor PEALE oN PoLnrrics.—
To a Philade!pha Inquirer interview-
er ex-Senator Peale, of Lock Haven, ex-
pressed himself the other day as fol-
lows :
“As to politics, there is little new.
Of course the Democrats are one and
all for Cleveland. I have not mata
single member of that party who is in
favor of Hill or anybody else except the
ex-President. We are sure that he will
go in boldly, if at all, with his belief
published to all the world. As far as
ambition is concerned, he has little to
gain, for he has been in the White
House once.”
To the question whether thers was any
feeling in his section favorable to run-
ning Governor Pattison for Viee Presi-
dent in case Cleveland is renominated,
he said he had heard of no such feeling.

to see him before he starts, and it
might not be out of place to mention
to those who owe him that his trip
will require money and that payment

from them would be acceptable.
At Williamsport Judge Mayer,
who was holding court for Judge Metz-
cer, sentenced a fellow to the penitentiary
for one year for carrying a revolver on
his person. The individual was consid-
erably surprised, but the law forbids
the carrying of concealed deadly
weapons. He will know better when
he comes out of prison. Judge Mayer's
was a proper jndgment 1n this case, con-
sidering the fact that halt the homicides
come from persons having revolvers
handy about their persons.

| DeaTH oF AN OLD AND EXCELLENT
Cri1zeN.—The people of our town
were pained to hear of the unexpected
death of Mr. Edward Graham, last
Tuesday morning, which was caused by
heart failure, Mr. Graham had been ill
for some time with grip which terminat-
ed fatally in the forma mentioned, He
was an old, respected citizen, having
come to Bellefonte from England when
a young man, and, engaging here at his
trade as a shoemaker, has been a resi-
dent of the place ever since. For some
years he had a boot and shoe store in the
Brockerhofl’ Hotel building, but for sev-
eral years past worked at his trade. Mr
Graham was a member of the Episcopal
church, and won the esteem of all
by his excellent traits of character.
His wife survives him, and also five
daughters and two sons : Mrs. Gordoz,
Mrs. Harper, Misses Mary, Sallie and
Emma, and Benner and Edward Gra-
ham. The funeral took place from the
Episcopal church on Thursday after-
noon, Rev. Mr. Davis officiating.
A Monster Swixg.—A Meadville,
Pa., resident is the only man who has
vet come forward with an original sug-
gestion worthy of note for the World's
Fair in Chicago. His device, if practic-
able, will be botb pleasure giving and
money-making. Ha wants a mammoth
swing, 500 fest high erected, to be
operated by electricity. 1t will support
a handsome car, which will carry fifty
persons. According to the designer's
calculations, the car will swing a dis-
tance of 1,250 feet. At the extremity
of each sweep it will lift the passengers
a heighth of 460 feet, affording them a
flash view of the exposition, the city,
surrounding country and lake. Mid-
way 1n its flight the car will travel
swifter than a bird and faster than a
mile a minute. 1f is to be so stupend-
ous and stariling that it will be dubbed
the eighth wonder of the world.
ALL Towns Have Tuem.—Every
growing, ambitious towp is composed
ot three elemnents, Those who work
patrioticaily, vigorously and intelligent-
iy for its advancement; those who are
in a state of apathy or indiffereace ; and
those who take a curious delight in dis-
couraging the etierts of others by ridi-
cule, by a persistent denial that any
progress ean or has been accomplished,
and by boasting of every other town be-
sides their own. The last class are call
ed croakers, but they are really sore-
thing worse, for their opposition does
not arise simply from despondency, but
from that unenviable spirit which will
neither act itself nor sufler others to
act.—Ex, :
A BarN BurNep BY WHITE CAPs.
—XRichard Ashman, of Three Springs,
Huntingdon county, has been made the
victim of an incendiary outrage. Warn-
ing had been given him by “White
Cape’ that his property would be burn-
ed Thursday night of last week, but he
paid no attention to the notice. At
half past eight o’clock that evening his
barn was discovered in flames, and in a
short time that and all his farming im-
plements and three hundred bushels of
grain were destroyed. No reason can
be assigned for the incendiary fire. The
loss will reach $4,000, on which there is
no insurance.
Ax Duarense WreeL.—Probably the
largest casting ever transported by the
Pennsylvania railroad arrived in Johns-
town last week for the Cambria Iron
Company. Itisa half section of a fly
wheel for the new billet mill, and
weighs 90,000 pourds. The special car
on which it was transported from Phil-
adelphia was borrowed by the railroad
company for the purpose from the Bald-
win Locomotive Works, the company
having no car with capacity above 80,-
000 pounds. Tae casting will be un-
loaded this week and the car will be
taken to Philadelphia for the other half
of the wheel. . The total weight of the
whee! complete is about 180,000 pounds.
Ox His WAY 10 ENGLAND. —Sammy
Taylor, the champion eatch-as-catch-can
wrestler of Pennsylvania, whose home

through the city this morning en route
for New York, from which point he
will. sail to Liverpool, England, and
from there go to London, where he is to
measure strength and science with a
champion of his native country. He
was accompanied by six of his friends
of Centre and Clearfield counties, who,
with their principal, expect to remain
across the waters about six months.-—

=a
Tae FourtH or JuLy IN BELLE-
roNTE.—The work of preparation for
the great demonstration in this place on
the coming Fourth of July is making
encouraging progress. At the meeting
of the corumitiee of arrangements held
at the office of Spangler & Hawes last
Friday afternoon Mr. Spangler reported
that favorable progress had been made
in securing special trains to bring the
people here and return them to their
homes on the day of celebration. Ar-
rangements were being made for a train
Jo leave hereat 10 o'clock on Saturday
night and run over the Bald Eagle Val-
ley road to Tyrone and then out to
Philipsburg ; another to go over to the
Lewisburg road to Montandon. It is
believed that no difficulty will be ex-
perienced in getting the desired trains,
as both Supt. Blair, of Tyrone, and Pas-
senger Agent Farrar, of Williamsport,
are favorably inclined to do all they
can. It was also voted to send invita-
tions to Clearfield and Curwensville, and
to the G. A. RB. Posts throughout Cen-
tre county.
The committee met again in the
evening and determined to send in-
vitations to the Millheim and Boals-
burg Bands. Finance committee re-
ported about $600 aiready subscribed
with a probability of $200 more being
raised. An invitation was extended to
a fire company at Seneca Falls, N. Y,,
which is about making a pleasure trip
and might be induced to come 10
Bellefonte and participate in our Fourth
of July celebration.
The committee concluded to send Mr.
J. S. McCargar to Lock Haven, Wil-
liamsport, Lewisburg, Sunbury and
Milton ; Col. Mullen to Tyrone; J.
A. Fiedler to Philipsburg, Clearfield,
and Curwensville, and C. L. Gates and
Thomas Shauchensy to Altoona and
Hollidaysbarg. The object of their
mission was to see that the posters
were put up properly and to work np an
interest among the firemen of this
place in favor of the demonstration at
this place. It was voted to spend $100
tor fireworks ard Mr. John D. Sour-
bezk was appointed to attend to this de-
partment and to manage the setting off
of the pyrotechnics in the Diamond on
the evening of the Fourth. In his mis-
sion to Tyrone Col. Mullin will make
an effort to induce the celebrated Sheri-
dan trocp to come here and take a part
in our demonstration.
At a meeting of the committee of Ar-
rangemenis on Monday evening the
most encouraging progress was reported.
Word was received from various places
of companies that were desirous of visit-
ing Bellefonte on the Fourth, and invi-
tations were extended to them. The
young men of Centre Hall notified the
committee that they avould like to par-
ticipate in the parade as a fantastic or-
ganization. They have accordingly
been invited, and those of other places
in the county who are fantastically in-
clined have also been encouraged to
come, This will be make an amusing
feature of the parade.
