pected.
——Wm Gramley, of Madisonburg,
while working at Luse’s saw mill, last
week, had the index and middle finger

heart disease, on Sunday morning, and

drama ever given on a Bellefonte stage.
Don’t miss it.
——Mr. S. K. Faust, one of Miles
township’s most energetic business men,
and one of the solidest Democrats in the
county was up to Bellefonte,on business,
on Friday of last week.
Gen. Hastings delighted a Lock
Haven audience, on Tuesday evening,
with his lecture on ‘Education and Citi-
zenship.” The papers give his talk
very flattering notices.
Boalsburg will have a big musi-
cal convention next month. It will
open on Monday evening, January
11th, and close with a grand concert, on
the Friday evening following.
——R. D. Shaffer, a resident of Cur-
tin township, was brought home dead
on Tuesday morning. He had been
away working and death resulted from
heart failure, superinduced by inflamma-
tion of the bowels.
——The large saw mill owned and
operated by Hon. Chester Munson and
located at Munson Station, near Philips-
burg, was destroyed by fire on Friday
right last. It is supposed to have been
the work of an incendiary.
——The Gentzell boys, from Zion,

port having had lots of sport.
——The Witch” will be the attrac-
tion for Christmas eve. Manager Gar-
man is to be congratulated on having

season,
——We are sorry to learn that death
has entered the home of commissioner
George Li. Goodhart, at Centre Hill, and
claimed his bright little two year old
son. The child had been sick but a
week and its death, which occurred on
Monday morning, was a grevious blow
to its parents. :
——The hunting season closed on
Tuesday last, and fewer deer were kill-
ed within this county, than for many
seasons past. To the extensive woods
fires last spring, which desolated so large
a portion of the wild lands of the county,
is attributed the great scarcity of game,
that has been noticeable during the en-
tire summer.
_——The new outbuildings that have
troubled the Court so much the past
few months, and the want of which was
used as an argument in favor of a new
Court House, are about com pleted, and
are said by those who have examined
them to be an excellent and highly satis-
factory job, both in arrangement and
workm anship.
~——Post Master Feidler's Directory
of Centre county is out and in every
way fulfills the promises of its compiler.
The book is neatly bound in board and
has been made durable so that it will re-
main intact for years. The manner of
its arrangement evidences an immense |
amount of work and while its cost may
seem rather large we venture to say that
upon second thought no one will deem
the price too high.
—-A tragedy occurred down on
Thomas street the other day, that will
likely bring an agent: of the Society of
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, to
investigate the cause as soon as this no-
tice has reached the Boston headquarters.
Mr. Tripple’s cow got a bone fastened
in her throat, She bellowed and roar-
ed, kicked and jumped in her vain at-
tempt to dislodge it; but noone being
near, who could help the poor animal,
the strusgle was not long ; she choked
io death in a very few moments;
SITAR Sy,
A CoNVERSATION OVERHEARD BE-
TWEEN A CURTIN STREET MATRON
AND A Hic STREET BELLE.—
“Why! Good afternoon Nell! You are
the very person I want to see. Take
of your things and sp:nd the afternoon,
for I have a thousand and one questions
I want to ask you, and your visits are
80 unsatisfactory wher you sit on the
elge of your chair in that manner, as
though you intended to go every
minute.’
“Well Nan, I vowed, the last time I
was here, I would not come again to
stay ; but, if I ean do anything for you,
I will forget the vow and stay just one
hour, on condition that, the first time
you come into town, you will tarry two
with me. What new craze are you
raving over this afternoon? Is it the
bicloride of gold treatment or the last
new movement in the Delsarte Sys-
tem ?”
“Neither, I am simply in a quandary
about Christmas. You know every one
in this town imagines he is on the verge
of starvation, or in the last stages of
bankruptcy because the glass and nail
works are not in operation. While, in
reality, it affects very few of us. Oh
my, how I wish I could exile about a
half a dozen of these.old “blue bottles”
to the wilds of famine stricken Russia !
I am convinced they would come home
with, not only gratitude, buta prayer
of thanksgiving in their hearts, vhat they
live in a country where potatoes are
only 40 cents per bushel, and apples
were to be had for the asking. Every
year I have taken a cross-eyed view of
life and made myself and every one
about me miserable, because I could not
present all my friends with parchment
editions, royal sables, or fine porcelains ;
and now I have made up my mind to
join the optimists. I am going to re-
member every one of the clan, and I
hope that the beauty of fitness will give
value to my simple little offerings. Do
suggest something, for I have not.been
down town for an age. Aunt Kate, |,
who lives near Tyrone, wrote me the
other day that she had been up at Balt-
zells, the Wanamaker’s of Altoona, on
last Saturday, and that she had had no
difficulty in selecting all her Christmas
presents, for they keep everything from
dry goods to drugs. They have per-
fumes and jewelry, porcelains and dolls.
Now if I lived in the Western part of
the Bald Eagle Valley I would be
tempted to see for myself, for Auntie
thinks they have one of the finest retail
establishments between Philadelphia
and Pittsburg.”
“Why Nan, have'nt you been down
town to see the beautiful things our own
stores have 2”! ?
“No, I am going to-morrow or next
day, for next week every body isin a
hurry, trying to get a glimpse of the
teachers, attending institute and doing
theirshopping. But dosuggest something
for I wanta few ideas before I start.”
“At the ‘Racket’ you can get every
thing that you could want, from a beau-
tiful dress, done up in a fancy box, to a
piece of chamois for Grandmother's spec-
tacle case ; handkerchiefs from 5 cents to
$2.00; feather and fur boas, toys, dolls,
fancy baskets, reefers with fur and reef-
ers without fur, and a better assortment
of gloves you cannot find outside of the
large cities.”
“Oh! tell me something for a man !”’
“Is it for Tom or Jack ?”’
«Tom.
“Well [don’t think you could getany-
thing that would please him better than
one of those lovely smoking or house
Jackets that Montgomery’s have in their
window. They have beautiful umbrei-
las, fancy neck-wear, alligator Yags ;
and if you are going to gel the overcoat
you talked of, they will make it to order
from $18 to $20.
“At Fauble’s you can get anything
that you could want in the gent’s fur-
nishing line. Didn’t I hear you speak
of a Mcintosh the other day? They
have the most stylish ones in town, from
$5 to $25. Underwear of every descrip-
tion from gray merino to natural wool,
soft felt hats and stiff felt hats, fancy
caps for children and ready made cloth-
ing of every description.”
“See at Mingle's shoe store you might
get him a pair of patent leathers ; you
can gel them in shoes, oxford ties, or
pumps. Mingle has shoes of Blucher
cut, and shoes with Piccadilly points.
I'see that he is advertising genuine bar-
gains. in women’s and childrens foot
wear. Iam going togive a pair of his
felt slippers to Aunty Davis, for I think
they wear so much better than the home
knit ones and in the end do not cost as
much.”
“You know Mr. Simon Loeb is going
to leave town in the Spring, and he is
selling his stock of goods at greatly re-
duced rates, for he is going out of the
business entirely. Hasa very nice selec-
tion of ready made suits, overcoats,
gloves, neckweur, handkerchiefs, hats
and tranks. I do not think you need
have any trouble in selecting a beautiful
as well as a useful gift for Tom or any
other man be your pocket-book heavy or
light.”
“Mamma likes to count her linen by
the dozen, so I thought I would get her
a table centre, doilies, and tray cloth to
match. I cannot put very much work
on it, for I have not the time ; some one
RE a aT SO A i A
told me you could get them at Mrs. Gil-
more’s, with drawn work corners, al-
ready stamped with a small design that
is easy to outhne, and yest, effective
when finished.”
“If youare going to remember me,
A Bic FIRE IN THR LowER END oF
NrrraNy VALLEY. —The burning of
| the large barn on the dairy farm of
| Jacob Ricker, in East Nittany Valley,
| on Saturday night was the most destruc-
{ tive farm fire that has occurred in this
go to Richard’s or Bush’s. I am tired of | county for many years. The reflection
woolen mittens and cotton handker-
chiefs. If you can only afford to buy
me a rose calendar, or a cate little stamp
box, get me a luxury. “A thing of
beauty is a joy forever.” Richard's
have precious stones, jewelry, clocks
and silver tea and dinner sets ; but I will
be entirely satisfied with a silver hair
pin, a souvenir spoon or a bonbon box.”
“Bush's have the most exquisite gift
books, Rocky mountain flowers, Prang’s
christmas novelties, artists materials
games and the latest editions of all the
standard authors,
“Mr. Sam Williams will frame your
little wood cut in a suitable frame for
40 cents. He has etchings framed
in white and gold, Steel engravings and
chromos to brighten the walls of home
and office.”
‘Miss Mary wrote me to send the
yarn for Jack’s mittens and silk for her
rose cloth, where had I better go ?”
“Myer’s on Spring street. They keep
etching, rope, knitting and wash silks,
and wools of every shade and twist.
They have a nice assortment of china
silks,linens and underwear.”
‘Just two more questions and I am
done. Iam on the refreshment com-
mittee for the Christmas entertainment
and it will take seventy some pounds of
candy, what would you do? Would
you send to the city or?”
“Why I would simply walk down to
Sechler’s and order the whole bill, for I
have found, after several years experi-
ence, that he will give you the same
sweetmeats at wholesale prices that you
can get at the factories, thus saving the
time and trouble. Mother often says,
we are a good advertisement for Sech-
ler for we are all so healthy and for
fourteen years the groceries have all
been bought there.” ;
“Dick 1s going to suggest that “The
Kings Daughters” send the White Star
and Gerberich’s flour and McCalmont’s
coal to their friends, for he says there 1s
more comfort in those articles than in all
the manufactured products put together.’
‘Have you ever seen a jewel or hand-
kerchief case made out of glass? Har-
ris’s cut me one the other day that with
ribbons and mat did not cost me 60 cts.,
and if I do say it myself it is one of the
daintiest presents I have seen this sea-
son. I have not seen the cases,
but speaking of hardware reminds me
that we need a new carving set, and
that I want to go down there to see the
stoves and skates.”
“What are you going to ask Santa
Claus to bring you ?”
“Well to be honest I am not very
thankful for small favors, and since I
can’t have Uncle Sam's purse at my dis-
posal it makes very little difference to
me whether its a new phaeton from
McQuistion’s, a music box from Gauts-
chi’s a doe skin saddle from Schofields
or a check that would be mostly spent
at E. K. Rhoads, for people must live
if works do stop. After all it is the
spirit of the giver which glorifies the
gift.”
“Don’t go. I want to ask you about
the Assembly.”
“Mercy days! You would think I
was the WarcamaN advertising
honest men. Indeed, I can’tstay anoth-
er minute for I have three errands to do
before lunch.”
“Come again.”
“Thank you I will.”

of the fire against the sky was seen in
this city about 7 o'clock, and by many
it was supposed that the burning build-
ing was on the Ricker farm.
Yesterday a number of persons from
this city visited the scene and viewed
the ruins. From agentleman who vis-
ited the valley and conversed with Mr,
Ricker, the following particulars were
learned: The fire broke out about 6.30
o’clock Saturday evening. Some of the
men employed on the farm were under
a shed greasing a wagon, at the front of
tbe barn, and their attention was attract-
ed by the crackling and roaring ot the
flames at the northwest side of the barn.
In a few moments the flames had spread
through the entire structure and none
of the contents of the barn could be
saved Five horses, three colts and
seventeen cows perished in the flames.
There were 1800 bushels of corn in the
ear, about 700 bushels of wheat, 900
bushels of oats, more than 40 tons of
hay, 18 sets of harness and many farm
implements were destroyed. The flames
communicated to the outbuildings and
they too were burned, but ths farm
house was saved. The only live stock
saved was three horses and the pigs.
Mr. Ricker could make no estimate yes-
terday of the amount ot the loss, which
is only partly covered by insurance
He stated that there was some insurance
, on the building, placed with the Sugar
{ Valley Company, but whether there
| was any insurance on the contents of the
| barn, live stock, ect., he was unable to
state. :
S. L. Ricker, who was the duiryman,
was seen this forenoon by a representa-
tive of the Hzpress and stated that he
owned all the live stock burned and had
no insurance. He thinks the fire was of
incendiary origin and says that within
five minutes from the time the fire was
first seen the whole structure was en-
veloped in flames. —Lock Haven Fu-

Mg. H. A. HARNDEN.—Many read-
ers of the WATCHMAN to whom he was
personally known will be grieved to
hear of the death of Henry A. Harnden,
which occurred December 8th, at his
home in Altoona. For months he had suf-
fered from heart disease and the prospect
of a sudden, though not unprepared
death, was constantly before him, and
when the summons came he was ready,
waiting. Born in Massachusetts, Nov-
ember 28th, 1835, he was justin the
prime of life. A life that had been
passed mostly on a farm in Half Mcon
Valley, where he was respected and es-
teemed by the entire community. Three
or four years ago he moved to Altoona
where he owns a comfortable home on
Second Avenue and where he lived sur-
rounded by his family. He leaves a
wife, who was Miss Sarah Rote, and five
children, Mrs. Emma H. Kling, Elmer
S., Bessie M., John W., and Foster L.,
all of whom have reason for sorrow and
are entitled to sincere sympathy, for he
was a devoted husband, a kind father
and an earnest Christian. His last
thoughts were of the loved ones left be-
hind and his last words were ‘I want
you all to meet me in Heaven.” «May
the Heavenly Father in His mercy al-
low the family ties to be established
where the sorrows of earth do not in-
trade ; where the church is triumphant
over gin and death.”

PRAISED BY THE HERALD.—¢The
Witch,” which comes to the Opera
House next Thursday is thus spoken of
by the New York Herald: “The
Witch” is an admirable play of the old
pritan days. For my own part hard-
eied pliv goes though I confess I
watched each scene with deep childlike
interest. I entered into every hope and
fear of the heroine—T1 trembled when
she trembled and rejoiced when she es-
caped. When a drama has this sort of
effect on a critic i¢ has the right stuff in
it. “The Witch” is by long odds the
best work of its kind I have seen in New
York,”
In an editorial article the same paper
says: “As instances of the righteous
power of criticism we might, if we were
cruel, point to the quick downfall of
some of the more recent ventures in the
New York theatres. We prefer to call
attention to the more pleasant evidence
afforded by tha success of such plays as
‘Alabama’ and “The Witch.”

—On Saturday lust, at Clearfield,
before Judge Krebs, was acknowledged
the deed which recovered to Hon. Wm. A.
Wallace the title to all the property,
which was turned over to his assignee ,
at the time of the failure of the Clear-
field Bank. Mr. Wallace has been able
to pay the claims of all the depositors,
estates et=., that needed their money,
and has made arrangement, with his
other creditors to pay them on or before
September next, and in case of his
inability to do so at that time, has se-
cured further extension of one year.
This virtually puts him out gof the
“financial woods,” and relieves the
strain and worry he has been subject too
for years back. In his financial difficul-
ties he had the sympathies of all, who
knew how energetically and unselfishly
he had labored for the development of
his section of the state, und now that he
is on his feet agaifi, we know that the
congratulations will be as hearty, as the
sympathies were sincere.
