CARROLL Low CrIDER.—Death--On
Sunday afternoon between the hours of |
12 and 1, Mr..and Mrs. F, W., Crider, of
Linn street, were called upon to, witness
the death of their second son Carroll.
He had just passed th: 19th mile stone
of what promised 8 bright’ and useful
career when death claimed him from
mortality. il
In January he went to Dickinson
College, at Carlisle, and entered the
Freshman class of that institution, but
scarcely had he gotten setiled in the
routine of college life when seeds of
consumption began to germinate and in
February his father found it necessary
to bring him home. Gradually he grew
worse and at last became so weak that
he was compelled to remain in bed,
There he bore his sufferings patiently
and awaited the end which was to be
sim ply a change from this life of uncer
tainty and sorrow into one eternal exis-
tence of brightness and glory, for Car-
roll’s life had been. one of purity and
simpleness, and when in his last breath
he exclaimed “I am not dying, but am
only going home to see Jesus,” it was
with a certainty borne of faith that the
beauty of m be eclipsed
by the grander halo of immortalitV
Funeral services were he,o™nt his
home on Tuesday afternoon, the ser-
vices being conducted by Rey. Wm. A.
Houck, of the Methodist church, of
which the deceased was a member, as-
sisted by Rev. Hughes, Woodcock ‘and
Hoshour. The last sad rites were per-
formed in the most impressive manner.
Edward Harris, Frank Shugert, Ed-
ward Valentine, James Cook, Herbert
Houck and Roland Curtin were pall
bearers for their departed friend.
A TussLe WITH A BURGLAR.—Early
Wednesday morning Charley Noll,
who lives on north Allegheny street
this’place, was awakened by some one in
hisroom. He quickly jumped out of
bed and just as he did so a man ran out
of the door into the hallway. Charley
followed and in the dark both fell to
the landing below, where a lively scuf-
fle ensued. There were two men in the
house, but one of them made good his
escape while the other was getting a
thumping on the stairs. Charley had
been sick in bed or he would have been
able to have held the man until aid
could have been called, but as it was he
escaped, only leaving a small folt hat, a
bull-dog revolver and a dark lantern by
which the police may be able to work
out a clue.
Sixteen dollars was the amount of
money the burglars carried away with
them.
About one o’clock the house of S. M.
Buck, on Howard street, was entered
and the clothes of a young man who
was visiting there at the time were car-
ried down to the kitchen and gone
through, from which the magnificent
sum of forty cents was realized. This,
with a four bladed knife, was all they
procured at Buck’s and it is hardly
probable that a return visit will be
made.
SUICIDE oF AN EMBEzzZLER.—H. D.
Brown, of Pittsburg, arrived in Ebens-
burg on the 9 o'clock train on Thursday
evening of lust week and registered at
the Mountain House in that place. He
retired to his room about 12 o'clock, and
shortly afterwards a pistol shot was
heard, and on investigation Brown was
found to have shot himself. When the
door of his room was broken open Brown
was lying upon the bed with a thirty-
eight calibre revolver in his hand and a
bullet hole in his head. He was con-
scious, and said : “I bave shot myself,
as I intended. The cause is that I em-
bezzled $300 of my firm’s money.” An
examination made by doctors pronounced
the wound almost assuredly fatal. The
suicide is about 85 years of age, and trav-
eled for A. Logan, of Pittsburg. He
had been drinking before he went to
bed, and when he arrived in Ebensburg
he was without money.
Narurar Gas NEAR Lock HAvew.
—The statement has been made that
natural gas has been discovered on the
land of the Queen’s Run Fire Brick
company. That gas has been found or
at lenst god indications that it exists, is
correct, but the discovery was not made
on the lands of the Quear’s Raw eon
pany. The location of the supposed gas
territory is about six miles from Lock
Haven and the discovery of good indi-
cations was mada aboutsix weeks ago.
Since that time the Joasirg of lazds ia
that section has been quietly proceeding
until about 6,000 acres have been secur-
ed. The probability is that boring for
natural gas will be commenced early in
forgery, one year in the Weastern
tentiary ; Wm. Raymond, larceny, one
year in the penitentiary ; Powell Garich

tion; Daniel Brent, colored, for cuiting |

——The School Board of Lock Ha-
ven has extended the vacation ‘of the
schools of that place to the 21st inst.
This is intended to give the scholars a
chance to enjoy the firemen’s parade.
——Shamokin has flannel shirt parties,
That is, the gentlemen array themselves
in flannel shirts and light pantaloons to
attend the dances. At most places the
waiters would carry out a gentleman so
arrayed, but in Shamokin everything
goes.— Lz. :
‘We have it upon the authority
the Lock Haven Democrat that natural
gas has been discovered at Queen’s Run
on the Property of the fire brick com-
pany, and there is consequently some
excitement among Lock Haven capital.
ists and a good deal of interest is mani-
fested by the community in general,
——The State Journal, of Philadel-
phia, published in the interest of the
colored people, will send a young lady
of color receiving the highest number ot
votes, to Europe and back, paying all
reasonable expenses. A Williunsport
young lady, Miss Maggie B. Wilson, is
up to the present time, far ahead in the
contest for the prize.
——The little 7 year old daughter of
Mr. Frank Bowling, of Sugar Valley,
while out on the mountain with her sis-
ter on Tuesday, picking berries, was
frightened nearly to death by a big bear
which, encountered her and probably
would have carried the little one off to
his den had their dog not interfered
and protected the child.
——Several important failures occur-
red at Williamsport during the past
week. The Demorest Sewing Machine
Company assigned on Saturday, and the
hands were discharged, but it is believed
that it will resume operations. John B.
Emery, an extensive operator in lumber
and the ‘postmaster of the city, also
made an assignment.
——All the property, rolling stock
and appurtenances of the Buffalo Run,
Bellefonte & Bald Eagle Railroad com-
pany will be sold by decree of the cir-
cuit court of United States for the west-
ern district of Pennsylvania, at Phila-
delphia, on November 3rd. It pro-
bable that the Bellefonte Furnace will
resume upon the settlement of the diffi-
culties encumbering the company.
——On Thursday of next week Lock
Haven expects to have the largest crowd
of people that ever was in that town on
the occasion of the firemens, convention.
Thousands of firemen and thousands of
private citizens will on that day test the
ability of Lock Haven to entertain and
provide for a crowd of people. Every-
one is making preparations for enter-
taining visitors and friends. Extra
help is being secured by the hotel men
and merchants, and parties are coming
from other plsces to assist with the dec-
orations.
Mrs. Mary A. Fleck, wife Mr.
Martin Fleck, died yesterday evening
at half past four o’cfuck, suddenly, after
a brief illness, at their residence on
Spruce street. If she had lived until
November 18, she would have been 49
year of age. She was a daughter of J,
W. Stuart, of Martha, this county. Mr.
Fldck moved from Boiling Springs to
this place nearly three years ago. Death
was caused from a stroke, which went
to her brain. She leaves a husband and
seven children to mourn their loss, who
are as follows : Mrs. Massay A. Am-
merman, of Curwensville ; Effie Stere,
of this city ; Stewart, a son living at
Tyrone ; Mrs. Mollie F. Hoy, of near
Bellefonte ; Allie, Belle and Abbie,
who are at home. The funeral will take
place to-morrow at Martha, in the fami-
ly grave yard. Mrs. Fleck was a Chris-
tian lady, highly esteemed by all who
knew her, and a member of the Baptist
church of this city.— Philipsburg Jour -
nal of Tuesday.
Home From IRELAND. —Saturday
night’s train brought our distinguished
townsman, James Schofield, home from
one of the most delightful trips le lins
ever taken. About two months ago he
left here to visit his aged parents in Bel-
fast, Ireland, and after a delightful voy-
age on the city of Rome he reached the
queen emerald city where his father aad
mother awaited his arrival. It had been
twenty-five years since they met and the
reunion was most joyous indeed.
Jim had ample time to study the
Irish people, their enstoms and condi.
tions, and hus promised to write us an
account of the impressions formed of the
country. As a typical representation of
the Irish American, he, no doubt, ob-
served many details of the government
which another traveler would have ov-
er-looked ; so we are anticipating much
of interest in his story. .
Mr. Francis Schofield, a brother who
is in business in New York, came on to
pay him a short visit, but was called
away to attend a banquet given to some
of the members of Tammany by Senator
Herron. He is a very pleasant gentle-
nian.

Corre PROCEEDINGS.—-In the case
of Com, vs. J. F." Karshnet, of Sandy
Ridge, charged with violating the liquor
law by, furnishing beer 40 vatious -par-
ties without a license; most of the -time
of the Court was consumed on Thursday
of last week. The jury returned a ver-
dict of guilty, but application for a’ new
trial was granted.
In the case of John Donovan vs. the
Pennsylvania railroad company = the
claim was for damages for the killing of
a cow on the railroad near Snow Shoe.
The jury returned a verdict for the rail-
road company, as the cow was killed
within the boundaries of tho village of
Snow Shoe and the law does not re-
quire railroad companies to fence their
roads within the limits of towns and
villages. If the cow had been killed at
some point on the railroad in the country,
and there had been no fence, the ques-
tion would have been different.
L. F. Drake vs. A. I. Archery, was a
claim for wages. The Court directed g
compulsory non suit.
SECOND WEEK.—Tue court was
called to order Monday morning
by Judge Furst and several cases
called, but without return, as in
every one either important witnesses
were not present or the attorneys were
not ready. In the afternoon the court
got down to work ani the following
cuses have thus far been disposed of :
Wm. F. Reynolds vs Jos. Green’s Ex-
ecutors et al. Verdict for plaintiff for
$1600.
Wm. F. Reynold vs Jos. Green’s Exe-
cutors. Verdict for plaintiff for $3740.
Thompson & Allison, use of S. B.
Thompson, vs W. F. Courter, called
and settled,
Jno. McCloskey etal vs D. B. Kunes,
This was a claim for timber. Verdict for
defendant.
Markley and Daring vs J. A. Dillon,
and 'W. H.® Markley & Co. vs Michael
Murphy. These wers lightning rod
cases. The defendants claimed that the
contracts were altered from the original
agreements and the amount and time on
the notes had been changed. The jury
in each case found a verdict for the
plaintiffs.
Wm. Wolf vs Wm. P. Shoop. Ver-
dict for plaintiff for $836.48, subject to
the opinion of the court upon a question
of law reserved,
P. F. Keichline vs Peopls’s Mutual
Insurance Association of Pittsburg.
Claim for damages caused by accident
—a box of lsmons falling on plaintiff's
leg. Verdict for plaintiff for $174.
Wm. B. Mingle vs H.Krumrine Exe-
cutors. Verdict of $300 for plaintiff.
Geo. E. Mensch vs Penna. R. R.
Co. Plaintiff sued for $10,000
damages claimed by reason of an acci-
dent by which an iron bolt was forced
into the side of his head while engaged
us a brakeman on the P. R. R., at Co-
burn. Verdict for the railroad com
pany.
BicycLe RipErs.—The Williamsport
Sun says: Tom Strine, the Edison
Light company’s electrician, is justly
proud of an invention he has just per-
fected and attached to his bicycle, It
is nothing more or less than an electric
alarm bell and is certainly as much of a
novelty adit is greatly superior to the
old way the bicyclists had of warning
pedestrians to get out of the way,
Press a button directly under your left
thumb and a sharp-toned bell on top of
the machine does the rest. Of course
the one Tom has on exhibition on his
own wheel at the present time is some-
thing which assumes the appearance of
being rather rough and crude, but the
diamond is there and a little polishing
up will make it shine with sparkling
brilliancy. The current is furnished
from a dry battery placed in the apart-
ment in the rear of the saddle, used for
carrying the tool bag, and is conveyed to
the bell by wires ranning through tub-
ing and the handle bars. Mr. Strine
and George Sharp, of the Novelty sup-
ply company, have applied for a patent
on the attachment.
Tramps FIGHT A BATTLE NEAR
CrLearrIELD. —Last Saturday afternoon
a party of eight tramps secured a keg of
beer from the brewery below Clearfield
and taking it to the woods began drink-
ing and carousing. A quarrel arose be-
tween two of the mea, whacae to blows,
and in a moment the entire party be-
gan aterrific hand-to-hand fight. Stones,
clubs and knives were used and the com-
bat lasted until Pete Scaddings and an-
other trsmp, name unknown, 2) to the
ground faint with the loss of blood.
Alarmed citizens called the Sheriff,
but before officers arrived the six attack-
ing parties had fled, but three of them
are. reported badly cut. The Sheriff
called together a posse of citizens
in pursuit of the flying rioters, and re-
turned with two, who were lodged in
jail, The men refuse to give their
names and will be held to await the re-
sult of Scaddings’ and the unknown'’s
injuries. The latter are reported un-
conscious and it is not believed they will
live,

BURGLARS IN PHILIPSBURG. — The
Philipsburg Journal gives a detailed
account of the operation of burglars in
tha place last Saturday night. A win-
dow sash was broken in the rear of
Wilkinson’s jewelry store, and about
the same time an entrance had been
effected into Beers’ music store and Mrs.
Harshberger’s dressmaking establish-
ment. At the first named place a lot of
spectacles, scarf and breast pins and
some watch wheels, were taken, besides
other smaller articles. Nothing was
taken from Beers’ or the dressmaking
room, The safe in Wilkinson’s was not
tampered with at all. Some watch-
maker's effects, wo learn, were found by
some boys up at the “swimming” place,
on Sunday, that are supposed to be the
ones taken from the first named place.
Not satisfied with what they got on
Saturday night, two houses were enter-
ed Monday night; L. C. Brinton’s and
Dr. H. Allport’s. At the former place
the thieves got a money bank contain-
ing $7.95, belonging to Master Lew
Brinton, besides taking a lot of confed-
erate money which Mr. Brinton had
kept as a curiosity. Here they also ate
a lunch of roast mutton, sweet potatoes
and corn, which they helpad themselves
to from a refrigerator. At Dr, Allport’s
they went in through a parlor window,
having raised the sash and using two
wedges to keep it up. When inside,
they went through the house from the
cellar to the second story. David had
told his father that he intended getting
up early in the morning and giving a
forse soma exercise, so when a match
was struck and lighted just outside of
the doctor's door, the doctorsaid, “David,
is that you 2’ but no response was made
and after a while the doctor got up and
found things somewhat disturbed about
the house, drawers in his desks both up
and down stairs having been rummaged,
and burnt matches scattered about. One
piace in particular, the closet, the burg-
lars opened the door and lighting a
match came in full view of the skull of
abear and one of a man. The doctor
says that he supposed this settled them,
and they left after seeing the grinning
skulls. Here they obtained a loaf of
bread and some butter from the cellar.
The also took a couple of small money
banks that contained $1.25, the banks
afterward being found in front of George
Puarker’s, broken open and the contents
taken therefrom,
There is much speculation as to
whether these operators were tramps,
professional burglars &® local thieves.

port upon its condition as to conve-
niece of location of the office; cleanli-

A THRESHING MASEINE BURSTS. —
Orn Monday afternoon while Mr, Welsh
and his son Edward were threshing oats
in the barn on the “Jaky” Mann farm,
on Marsh Creek, in Curtin township,
the eylinder of the machine broke and
flew into a thousand pieces. Edward
Welsh was badly cut about the face,
legs and arms and his father receiv-
ed several painful bruises,
It is not known what caused the
break, as they were not feeding any-
thing at the time, but itis supposed
that the speed of the machine was too
great.
If you are in need of a buggy, go
to McQuistion & Co. the only manufac-
turers in Bellefonte who ever served
time at the business,
