After the session was called to order the consta- bles reports were called and accepted, several petitions offered, John Marks appointed guardian for the children of Sarah Watson, Wilbur F, Reeder for those of William Cone, dec’d", sentence | suspended on Fravk Karcher, of Phil- ipsburg, and then the grand jury was empanelled, with J. M. Gramley, of Gregg township, as foreman. A lot of routine business was gone through with and court adjourned: Clara Witheright vs. W. H. Lucas, F. and B. Defendant found guilty and usual sentence pronouced. Commonwealth vs David McNeil, F. and B. Defendant plead guilty and usurl sentence pronounced. The next case called was that of S. R. Pringle vs the overseer of the poor of Taylor township, to recover the bur- ial expenses of Charles Cowher. The case took all of Monday afternoon and when the session was called on Tues- day morning it was learned that: the plaintiff had taken one of the juror’s to the opera house the night before and slept with him at the hotel. This nec- essitated the withdrawal of the case at the plaintiff's expense. The Hungarian riot case was taken up and Andrew Osicken, convicted. He furnished the liquor which made the others drunk. Commonwealth ve Harvey Royer, indicted for cutting and stealing six trees from the grounds of a Potter township school house. Defendant found guilty. Commonwealth ys William Dins- more, for receiving stolen goods in the shape of a buggy whip brought to him by his boy and which he was indicted for stealing. The boy, Miles Walker, acknowledged the theft himselt and the defendant was discharged. Commonwealth vs Carrie Wilson, ot Hublersburg, charged with infanticide, was taken up next and a verdict of “not guilty” rendered. While visiting her sister Mrs. Kreamer, of Coburn, last September, she gave birth to a child which died about an hour after its birth. Her sister buried 1t in the ash heap, but suspicious stories be- gan to float around and the body was exhumed and a post mortem held, No evidence of an incriminating kind was found aud then it was supposed the babe had been smothered as it was in a healthful and fully developed condi- tion and it was upon thistheory that the prosocution was entered. The young woman is rather pretty and up to last June had been a dress maker at Hub- lersburg. She was betrayed, on the promise of marriage, by one Harry McCaully who was present with a number of witnesses to break down her testimony, but the young woman's statements were so straightforward and clear that vindication was assured and highly proper. Judge Furst did a very wise thing when he decided not to grant any more uaturalization papers to parties who were not acquainted with the con- stitution of the U. S. and thoroughly familiar with that of our own State. CouNTY GRANGE. — The meeting of the Centre County Pomona Grange at Milesburg, on the 19th inst., was large- ly attended notwithstanding the in- clemency of the weather. All the re- ports showed that the Order, in the county,was never in a better condition. - The report of the Grange Fire Insurance Company showed that theres were now insured in the company over $1,800,000 worth of property and that the average cast, per thousand, for a period of six- teen years has been only $1.832—a lower rate of insurance than is offered by any company in the State. The report of the Picnic Association showed an equal- ly prosperous condition for already $1700 has been paid on the Park and upwards of $5000 have been expended on improvements ; so for every obliga- tion has been promptly met and paid. The following committee of arrange- ments were appointed for the coming year; Leonard Rhone, John Dauber- man, G.M. Boal, George Gingerich, George Dale and J. J. Arney; The county Grange is made up of the mem- bers of the subordinate Grange, every member of each subordinate order being eligible to membership iu the county Grange, and all the members have a common interest in the property of the county organization, which is indivisi- ble. It now commands a capital in its several departments of $90,000. THE MYSTERY DEEPENS.—The mys- tery surrounding the disappearance of “Kin” Nelson, a well known Philips- burg character, grows deeper every day and though his relations and friends have searched everywhere, no trace or clue of him has been found. The pa- pers of the little mountain town have declared that no one seemed to care whether he was found . or not, but we know this to be an untruth as one man atleast, W, H. Benner, did everything in his power to find the missing man. PSE Fd = ——Snapping winter weather this, if we only had enongh snow for sleighing, ——The Baltzell Bros,, of Altoona, "have an interesting advertisement on | carpets in this week’s issue which it may | benefit you to read.

C. Moyer & Co., one mile south of Al- toona, were totally destroy by fire on Sunday evening, involving a loss of $6,000. : —— Among the newspaper men, in this community, who are laid up with the grip are : editor Kinsloe of the Clin- ton county Republican and Deitrick Lamade, of Grit, ——Mrs, Margaret McKee, wife of the late vice president of the Pennsyl- vania State College, Prof. Jas.

Its First BIRTHDAY.—On Saturday last the Daily Gazette reached its first mile stone in the field of journalism and with just pride reviewed the past year’s work, The Gazette has doubled its size and very much improved its appearance since its birth and has become a bright and spicy little sheet. At times it gets into sensational veins and indulges the whims of its writers through its col- umns, but is, nevertheless, a credit to its publishers. ——A. J. McClintock, of Marion township, whose name has been on the WaTcEMAN’S list for years, was in to see us on Wednesday. He is one of the most prosperous farmers of the lower end, but we are sorry to say that he is soon going to leave old Centre and will move onto his own farm, in Clinton county, some time in April, Mr. Mec- Clintock is a Jacksonian democrat, through and through, and his party may well be proud of so staunch an ex- ponent of Democratic principles, ——On last Friday evening the Chris- tian Endeavor Society had a sociable in the Presbyterian Chapel that was a pleasure to attend and a credit to the organization. Music was furnished by Miss Ohnmacht, Mrs. J.C. Meyers, Mrs. Harris Mann, Mrs. Dr. Hayes, the Mis- ses Bayard, Luckenbach, Twitmire, and Messrs Cruse, Waddle, Bayard and Brown. Miss Teats the elocutionist, re- cited, and the feature of the evening was the conversational contests- The as- sembly was divided into groups of five orsix. A subject was given and the conversation for five minutes was on the chosen topic. Judges decided who had made the best points and thus every one present took part in the pleasant eatertainment and had an opportunity to advance his or her special subject. ——Thestrange case of Carrie Hoff- man, the Philipsburg serving maid,who went to sleep over a week ago and has not yet awakened, is exciting the attention of the people and physicians of that place. On Thursday evening she re- gained her senses for an hour or two but soon went into an unconscious state again. She has remained ina stupor ever since. When conscious she said that a boy had hit her with a snow ball, but now it is thought she must have been struck with astone. Later accounts say that she has wakening intervals when nourishment is taken, but most of her time she lies in a dead stupor. ila LOPORT OF THE GRAND JURY.—The following is the report. of the Grand Jury, as filed at the time of its adjourn- ment on Wednesday. ticed that that body recommends no fur- ther improvements to the Court House i than those already under way, whieh is the changing of the two vaults named by putting in new cases for filing away papers and laying new floors ; other- wise this body considers the Court House in good condition, with ‘ample accommodations for the businésk trans- action in it: To the Honorable Judges of the Court of Quarter Session of the Peace, in and for the county of Centre. January Sessions, 1892, The Grand Inquest of the Common- wealth of Pennsylvania, inquiring for the county of Centre in all matters rela- ting to the same, we respectfully report: That they have acted on fifteen bills of Indictment of which thirteen were found true bills, and two ignored. We beg leave further to report that we have visited and inspected the coun- ty Buildings and found first, the Cour: House in good concition with ample and proper measures in progress to im- prove vaults of Comu isioners’ office and Prothonotary’s office whereby the capaci- ty of vaults is double. These improve- ments we heartily commend. Second: We find the jail in ordinary good condition with the following ex- ceptions. Tho ceilings at several places need repairs at the first proper season. The range in the kitchen needs new fire brick and new top centre plate. The back door on north side of jail leading from hall to yard needs lock. The small door of south-east dungeon needs clasp, The dungeon on north-east end we count very filthy, being filled with waste paper and general rubbish, ete., and we recommend the removal of this and general cleaning. We respectfully tender our thanks to the Honorable Judges and District At- torney for their courtesy and assistance rendered us during our deliberation. T. M. GRAMLEY, Foreman, How BELLEFONTE LADIES ARE PUT- TING IN THEIR TiMmE.—Bellefonte has always been noted for her pretty girls and her hospitable people and this week they both seem to have been ‘in it.” On last Friday Miss Mary Thomas gave a “Fancy Work Tea,” which was in reality, the most delightful mid-winter entertainment society has enjoyed. Busy fingers over the fancy work dis. pelled all formality and the tea was an | elaborate luncheon of six courses. On Saturday evening a merry sleighing party of thirty-six drove over tv Centre Hall for supper and a dance, both of which they got in abundance in addi tion to the enjoyable sleighride, On Tuesday, Mrs. S. M. Buck gave an af- ternoon ‘‘tea’’ in honor of Mrs. Ezra and Miss Dunham. One of the prettiest social events this week was the lunch given by Miss Blanche Hayes, to twelve of her young lady friends. Pink was the chosen color for the fiowers and ta- ble decoration. Wednesday Mrs, W. F. Reber, in honor of her two visitors,zave a large party. Last night Miss Minnie Brew entertained the euchre club, while a large number of society people accept- ed the invitations that had been sent out by Mrs. J. A. Aikens for an “at home.” A SURPRISE PARTY: —A goodly num- ber of the members of the First Metho- dist Episcopal church along with their friends, gathered in the parsonage after services last night to help the doctor and Mrs. Monroe celebrate their thirtieth wedding day. After many kindly greetings among the assemblage, the voice of Captain Johnson resounded throughout the parlors in a neat presen- tation speech, which gave to Mrs. Monroe a handsome Singer sewing machine. This was a slight token of the appreciation in which she is held by the people. The doctor responded in his usual happy style, thanking the friends present for this most useful article, after which refreshments were served and all dispersed to their homes, wishing the doctor and Mrs. Monroe life,that many more anniversaries might be enjoyed by them.—-Altoona Tribune. Diep SuppENLY FROM HEART Dis- EASE.—The sudden death of Miss Brid- get McLaughlin, which occurred yester- day, Thursday, afternoon at four o’clock was a most sad one indeed. While sewing at Mrs, B. C. Achenbach’s, on. Bishop street, she suddenly fell for- ward. dropping her work. Quickly kind hands lifted her onto a couch, but within five minutes life was extinct. She had been suffering with the grip and it is thought it affected heart, Miss McLaughlin was about twenty- five years of age and, though always delicate, was a most excellent example of independent womanhood. Ow- ing to her rare aptitude in her art, her services were constantly in demand and she was ever the same sweet girl. GOVERNOR PATTISON TO VISIT THE CountYy.—Hon. John A. Woodward who is atiending the meeting of the State Board of Agriculture, at Harris- burg, writes us, under date of January 27th, to say that “there is every reason to believe that Governor PATrIsoN will attend some or more of our Institutes next week.” This will be gratifying news to the farmers of Centre county, for if there isany one man in this section of the State, that they admire more than an other. It is his excellency Robert | E Pattison. ide It will be no-| a ati — ——Mrs. W. S. Tripple, of Spring street, is visiting in Lock Haven. If your sale bills are printed at the Warcuman office you will get a free advertisement in. our directory and notes for your sale also, ——The musical convention which was to have been held at Pine Grove Mills bas been declared off. We are unable to state the cause. ——Two pleasant callers on Thurs- day were Messrs Nathan Grove, of Le- mont, and I. G. Walker, of Boalsburg. Both gentlemen report much sickness in their vicinity. ——Persons in need of Nursery stock of any kind, will find matters of inter- est in Mr. Fisher's advertisement in to- day’s WarcaMaN, and what Mr. Fisher says the public can rely upon. ~—Charley Nau has retired from the management of the little Tyrone Opera House. It was a wise thing for Charley to do, for the new Academy of Music, which will soon be opened in that place will attract all the patronage. ——The members of the Evangelical church, of this place, will give an oyster supper in the Lecture room of their church, on Willowbank street, on next Saturday evening. Ice cream and cake will also be served. Patronize the sup- per and help a struggling congregation. ——The women appointed to gather historical relics and other things of interest, from Centre county, for the World’s Fair, have effected an organiza- tion. Mrs. Wilbur F. Reeder of this place has been elected president ; Mrs. H. Foster, of Philipsburg, vice presi- dent; and Miss Mary Brockerhoff, of this place, is the secretary, of the auxiliary. —== Chas, A. Loder, and company, appeared in the comedy drama, “Oh: What a Night” at Garman’s opera house, on Wednesday night and Mr, Loder can congratulate himself on hav- ing given a Bellefonte audience the best entertainment, on the comedy order, that it has had this season, The star has been shrewd enough not to try to make the whole show of hinfself, as so many do, but with the assistance of pretty women and other good comedians he gave a performance at once clean and refreshing. It wasindeed an enjoyable evening and one the pleasure of which was not marredby the slightest vulgarity. Every member of the company is an artist of merit and the specialties intro- duced were very catchy. Mr. Loder will have to use the S. R. O. sign if he returns. THE Broopy ItTALiANs WILL SEE WHAT A Goop Paper Is.—Many of our readers hereabouts will remember Louis Bagnerelli the little Italian fruit- er who kept a stand on High street, Having amassed a fortune of $1800 in our town he returned to his sunny home last fall, where heis now the proprietor of a grocery store. In a letter to a Bellefonte friend recently he wrote the following: -‘Send me ghe WATCHMAN so I can show the bloody Italians here ‘what a good American paper looks like.” We appreciate Louis compliment, to our paper,very much indeed,especial- ly since it is from one whom we never expected would notice the respective merits of the publications of our town, and a paper of this issue is now on its way to that far off land. A Wise ActioN.-—At the meeting of the board of Trustees of the Pennsylva- nia State College, held in Harrisburg during the fore part of the week, it was decided to shorten the college calendar year, and two weeks were accordingly taken off. The law required that the college should continue in session for thirty eight weeks during each year, but experience has proven that the term was not only too long, but that in many instances the continuance of school so far into the hot months of June and July has proven injurious to the health of the students. The fact that the com- mencement came so late in the season kept many from attending who other- wise would havedone so. The trustees have certainly done a wise thing in shortening the year and we believe that it will have a very salutory effect upon the work and number of the students. Four NEW GRANGES ORGANIZED IN CENTRE CoUNTY,—On the evening of the 11th inst., I. S. Frain, of Jackson- ville, and Deputy W. M. Benninger, of Northampton county, organized a grange, at Millheim, with thirty-three charter members.
