SE NCR EE TT TT, ARRESTED Fok LiBEL.—The editors of the Altoona Times and Mirror werd arrested, on Thursday of last week, for criminal libel on oath of Wilham H. France, an ex-police officer. Itappears, from the articles published by these pa- pers, that France has been removed from the force on account of being seen in ‘a gambling den while on duty. The pro. prietors of both papers gave bail for the October term of court. Two FINE ORGANIZATIONS.— Both ‘the Logan Steam Fire Engine Company and the Undine Hose Company No. 2; are attending the State fireman’s convention now in session at Lock Haven. They are organizations of which Bellefonte can justly feel proud, for we doubt if there were any finer looking companies in the the parade which took place yesterday, Our fire boys are favorites wherever they go and we bespeak them a good ti me in Lock Haven. Miss BeurLar STrROHM DEAD.—We regret to be called upon to record the death of Miss Beulah Edna Stroh, which occurred at the residence of her grandfather, Mr, Michael Strohm, of Centre Hill, on Saturday evening, Sep- tember 12th. Miss Strohm had been living in Washington, D. C., with her uncle, Mr. Walter W. Bayard and held a position in the Census Department. She contracted a light cold which, with the seeds germinated by a severe attack of the grip, developed into galloping consumption. She was a young lady much admired for her lovely and unas- suming ways and her demise will be mourned by a large number of friends. Funeral services were held at her grandfather's on Wednesday. Tae MivrtoNn FAIrR.—The seventh annual fair of the Milton Driving Park Association will be held at Milton, Sept. -29th and 30th und October 1st and 2nd. The previous meetings of this associa- tion have been conducted in a most sat- isfactory manner and the management has won the public confidence. “The premiums for stock and ‘the purses for speed have been increased. Two thous- and dollars will be paid in purses for trotting,jrunning and pacing races, and the society is assured of many of the best horses in the circuit, Among other at- tractions Prof H. R. Ward, the renown- ed seronaut, will make several balloon ascensions and parachute descents. Ex- cursion tickets will be issued by all the railroad companies. Milton is provided with ample; hotel accommodations. Orr FIREMEN AT Lock HAVEN.— That excellent organization, the Logan Steam Fire Engine Company, of this place, was strongly and ably represent- ed at the Lock Haven Firemen’s Conven- tion this week. Their beautiful engine was shipped to that point on Wednes- day morning attended by a committee to take charge of jit, and the’ com- pany, with the Zion Band, went with a force of about fifty on Wednes- day evening. They acquitted them- selves creditably in the large assemblage of firemen from all parts of the State. H. D. Yerger was the representative of the Logans in the deliberations of the convention. The Undine Hose com- pany did not attend as an organization but manyjJof the members went t Lock Haven. = STATE Crop ;REPORT.—The lack of sunshine and warmth has retarded the ripening of corn and tobacco. Corn needs about tenjdays more of warm sun- shine to mature it and put is out of dan- ger of frost. An enormous crop is now probable. Some will be ready to cut in a few days. : The cool nights have caused the farm- ers in the tobaccoregions to fear frosts’ and the crop is rapidly being cut. The crop is estimated to be the largest and finest ever grown in the State, and the damage from rust and insects is much smaller than}in former years. Potatoes are about all lifted. The crop is large’and fine and very little rot is reported. The ground is in good condition and farmers are busy preparing for fall seed- ing. Some have already begun, but seeding proper will begin about the 15th. Buckwheat is reported a large and fine crop. Fruit and vegetables ar abundant. : THE FAR AT LEWISBURG. — The Union County Agricultural Society is, one the oldest organizations of the kind withinjthe confines of the State. The experience it has had, therefore, is of considerable moment, and fully justifies the officers thereof in saying that their exhibition thisj|year—the thirty-eighth —promises to eclipse anything of the kind heretofore held. It will take place at Brook} Park, Lewisburg, Pa., Oct. 7, 8 and 9,)|1891. The premiums offered are very liberal, covering all industries ~—the farm, the workshop, the fireside, and the fleet-footed roadster. The race- course or track is in first-elass condition, while the trials of speed promise to be most exciting, Their spacious grounds and buildings are also in excellent order. The people of beautiful Buffalo Valley extend hearty greeting to all visitors at their coming Fair. Make nota of the date—Oct. 7, 8 and 9, 1891.

Tery Waxt OyLy Eicat Hours.— The employes of the Huntingdon re- formatory, or,at least forty-two of them, want to know from Governor Pattison why they do not come within the pro- vision of the eight hour law passed at the last session of the Legislature. The act declares that in all state institutions eight hours shall constitute a day’s la- bor, and because of the enactment of this law the legislative champions of several penal and corrective institutions demanded larger appropriations upon the argument that the number of em- ployes would have to te increased. The Huntingdon reformatory attend- ants, through ex-Senator R. B. Petrikin on Tuesday presented a petition to Gov- ernor Pattison in which they set forth that the officers and managers of the re- formatory are violating the law and forcing them to do the same by com- pelling them to work twelve hours a day, under penalty of suspension or dis- charge. Furthermore, the petitioners say that they are now ordered to sign a contract by which they bind thémselves to work twelve hours aday! They ask the goyernor to {ake action which will give them an opportunity. tp benefit by the la w. UNITED BRETHREN CONFERENCE.-= ed Brethren church was held in Belle- fonte this week, having convened in the U. B. church on Tuesday. The terri- tory included , within the limits of the conference embraces most of the western part of the State, extending from Perry to Allegheny counties. There are about 70 clergymenin attendance at this meet- ing and taking part in its proceedings, besides some 40 lay delegates. The conference opened on Wednesday at 2 p. m. by prayer from Bishop E. B. ;Kephart, of Iowa, scriptural reading, and the usual preliminary services, after which the Bishop gave a brief and very encouraging account of the work that is going on in the chureh, and the progress that is being reported in all the confer- ences he has visited. In the organization of the conference Rev. D. Sheerer, of Johnstown, was" elected chairman, Rev. H. F. Shoop, of Braddock, secretary, and Rev. Seneff, assistant secretary. The presiding eld- ers reported the condition of their dis tricts and the work that is now going on for the advancement of the cause of the Master within the limits of their spiritu- al charges, Then was heard the reports of the local clergy, all of whom reported encouraging progress in every line of an increase both in church membership and in the building of churches. On Thursday morning, after prayer and the usual religious services, the re- ports of the regular pastors were heard, This took most of the day and was in progress when we went to press. The reverend gentlemen who partici- pated in this important church meeting were avery dignified and intelligent! body of men, impressing all who saw them by their clerical appearance, A church in such bands cannot help but. occupy a high rank among religious de- ! nominations. to? que A BURGLAR AT LewisTowN WHo' Usep His Piston.—Other towns be-' sides Bellefonte have recently been the! scenes af burglarious operations. At the residence of Mr. R. H. Montgomery, in Lewistown, last Friday morning, a man was discovered in the bedroom of Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery about three’ a. m., making his way to the clothes- lantern. Mr. Montgomery sprang from | bed, the burglar at the same time coolly | walking out ofy,the room and; down a back stairway, Mr. Montgomery in his rear calling “Stop I say !'” Near the. foot of the stairs Mr. Montgomery grab- bed the man by the shouldér, at the same time falling backward on the stairs, which proved a fortunate mishap as that moment the robber: turned and fired | a revalver, the ball, a twenty-eight cal- ibre, passing within an inch of his head and piercing the stairway clear through, Mr. Montgomery recovered himself as quickly as possible, called for assistance and ran in the direction the burglar was supposed to have gone, but found he had escaped out the front door, where he was joined by a pal. (An alarm. was had escaped to theridges north of town. A large bundle of clothing was found tied up in the house ready to be carried away. The house of J, Roller McCoy was | entered during the same night and six dollars in‘ mioney and a gold watch tak- en, and the residence of Joseph A. Mil- ler, ¢orner of Third and Main streets, was also made the object of the burg- lars’“effort, iit nothing ‘was étolé. The A Case of Chills and Fever Of Long Standing Finds a Cure. 4 Miserable Man—A Long Journey—A Brief Consultation-—An Off —-Hand Prescription — A Perinanent Cure and a Happy Man. Extract from a Medical Lecture by Dr. S. B. Hart- man. Several years ago a man forty-five years of age, from a malarious district, came a long distance to consult me for a chronic malarious affection for which he had doctored without intermission for over ten years. The treatment which | bad been mainly relied on by the various doctors . he had consulted was quinine and other derivative of chinchona bark. Of these preparations he had taken many pounds, and during several intervals he had taken a great many chill cures, but nothing seemed to have any permanent effect. His complexion was of that dirty yellow so characteristic of old ague patients, and his sunken, lusterless eyes, surrounded by dark circles, indicated how completely his health had been underminded. The tongue was heavily furred with a thick brown coating, breath very offensive,and he complained of a constant, dull headache. A poor appetite, indigestion, biliousness and constipation completed a tale of woe so commonly heard in a malarious locality. The chills came on atirregularintervals. Sometimes he would not have one for a month ; then again every day for a while. ' For this man I prescribed Pe-ru-na and Man a-lin as directed on the bot- tles, the Man-a-lin to be used until the bowels beeame regular and digestion good. <A few weeks after I received a very enthusiastic letter from him, in which he declared himself nearly well, and better than he had been in ten years, and had taken no quinine since beginning my treatment. ‘1 instructed him to gradually leave off the Man-a-lin, which he did,but continued the Pe-1u-na a few months longer, and made a com- plete recovery, continuing to enjoy the best of health. This case is one of which thereare thousands ‘in every malarious district who have been many years and still are searching fur something to. bring relief to their miserable condition. I am positive that Pe-ru-na and Man-a-lin would cure every one of these, for I have watched its effect a good many years, and I do mot know a single tailure. ad iti : : For a complete treatise on Malaria, Chills and Fever and Ague, send for The Family Physician No. 1.
