Hick’s Forecast For MARCH. —Rev.
Irl R. Hick’s makes the following preg-
noslications for March weather :
“Mercury is at the center of its dis-
turbing period on the 2nd. Reactionary
storms are also due from that date to
the 5th. The moon’s first quarter being
on the 6th, and the eleatric tension be-
ing greatly increased by our approach-
ing vernal equinox, it will be prudent
to anticipate storms and hard trying
weather from about the second to the
6th. The period will come in with
winds shifting to southerly ; rain will
appear first, turning to heavy sleet, and
finally to snow in Northern Central.
“Don’t forget that mércury is our
sleet god, that his power begins five
before, and reaches five or six days be-
yond the 2nd, and expect slesty coats of
mail to enwrap shrubbery, and play
diabolical pranks with the wires in
many parts of the land. A severe dash
of arctic breath will follow. See if the
mercury doesn’t touch a low point, gen-
erally, but especially of course, to the
north, between the 3d and 7th.
“About the 11th of March is always
a critical time. The vernal equinox is
about the crisis of its electsizal excite-
ment with in three or four days of that
date. A regular storm period is central
on the 9th, its day of greatest violence
being from that date to the 11th. These
facts, added to the full moon on the
morning of the 18th. indicate atmos-
pheric and electrical disturbances of
marked violence. Storms of general
rain and snow will result at the same
time, and a cold wave of great intensity
will spread eastward and southward from
about the 10th to 13th. The 14th and
15th are dates upon and touching which
there will be a sudden change to very
warm, attended by electrical storms, and
followed by change of wind and sharp
freezing uj: to about the 18th.
**A regular storm period is central on
March 20th, being within forty-eight
hours of the Sun’s central bearing on our
equator. The moon is on the equator,
also on the 21st. The equinox of Mars,
on April 12th, will also bring its full
disturbing power into play by this time,
so that every warning given for the per-
iod 8th to 13th, will apply with added
force to the period 19th and 23rd inclu-
sive. Great gales on sea and land must
result upon about these dates. They who
are looking for an open passage into
warmer summer weather, will find their
hopes, and perhaps other possessions,
blighted by frost between the 23nd and
26th. Plan for the care of your stock
and the protection of early vegetation.
Another sudden change from cold to
very warm will occur 26th to 28th, with
rain southward turning to snow in the
far west and north. The final dash of
cold for the month will follow, up to
the 80th. March will go out with ris.
storms in the West which will run into
the opening days of April.
A WoNDERFUL CASE.—Severa) weeks
ago the WATCHMAN mentioned the
death of Dr. J. H. Pierce, which had
just occurred in a Philadelphia hospital
whither he had gone for treatment.
Few people who knew of the venerable
Philipsburg physiciau, realized the try-
ing conditions under which he had lived
for seven years previous to his death.
From the time he was honorably mus-
tered out of the army, in '65, where for
three years he had served as a lieutenant
and surgeon, he had suffered, more or
less, with a throat affection. Finally
it developed into cancer of the larynx
and as it became necessary to have an
operation performed the doctor entered
the dispensary of his brother, tke emi-
nent specialist Dr. R. V. Pierce, at
Buffalo, N. Y., under whose care he re-
mained until discharged with the can-
cer removed, but after having under-
gone one of tha'most remarkable opera-
tions known to the medical fraternity.
His whole throat had been cat out and
in place of the gullet a little silver tube
bad been substituted. This tube carried
the food over the opening to the wind
Pipe ard on into the stomach and for the
past seven years it has done duty of a
natural throat for the physician. Of
course it necessitated his taking soft
foods, at all times, and the operation de-
stroyed the faculty of speech, though he
was able to articulate without voice,
Persons who attended the Hopkins trial
in ’90, will remember his testimony as
given in a peculiar hissing sound though
every word was audible and distinct,
Dr. Pierce was an Englishman by
birth. A man of marked ability in his
profession and with a constitution which
certainly must have been a marvel for
endurance and elasticity. 5
A CONCERT AT Z10N,—To-morrow;
Saturday, evening. March 5th, there
will be a musical concert, in the Evan-
gelical church, at Zion. [t will be giv-
jen for the benefit of the church and

ty’s great musicians, will conduct it there

‘dance. Only fifteen cents admission

Meyer will sing several catchy solos in
his own inimitable way and altogether
the concert will be well worth attend-
ing.

——A meeting to organize a lodge of
the P. 0. 8. of A., in this place, was

is adjusted.
——Telephone and telegraph wires
were down on Tuesday and Wednesday

with the outside world. Trainsjran as
they pleased and not until yesterday did
the linemen get the wires all up and in

will go off with a flood.

—Mrs. D. P. McKinney, the How-
ard milliner, is going to make) a great
advancement in her line of business this
summer and when her spring opening
takes place the people of that borough
and community can look for something
fine 1n the way of millinery. She has
secured the services of a tasteful city
trimmer and the products of her store
will doubtless be as handsome and at.
tractive as those of the more pretentious
establishments of larger towns.
——T wo weeks ago this paper publish-
el a short account of Mary Musser’s ill-
ness, in which it mentioned that her pa-
rents were going to take her, for treat-
ment, to Philadelphia the following
Saturday. Ths journey from Bellefonte
to Philadelphia did not seem to tire her
nearly so much as did tke short drive
from the Broad street station to the Up.
versity Hospital. The doctors pro-
nounced her a very sick child and said
there was no hope tor her recovery un-
less her general . System could be
strengthened. For several days she
seemed bright and cheerful, even plar-
ing to knit some lace for a little baby
that was in the next cot, however, neith-
er medicine nor stimulants had any ef-
feet and she continued to grow weaker
until Thursday evening, when “God’s
fingers touched her and she slept.”
Friday evening she was brought home
and was buried, from the Methodist
church,Sunday afternoon. A large pro-
portion cf the great crowd that attend.
ed the funeral services wore personally
acquainted with the deat little girl, who
had been so hopeful and bright the
nineteen months of her afliction, for no
one who had visited her during that
time, or who had heard the story of the
sad accident and its result, could be but
following, from Saturday’s Philipsburg
Ledger, as to the finding of R. K. Nel-
son’s body. The WarcrMAx gave a
full account of his mysterious disap-
pearance, on Christmas eve, of 1891,
since which time no clue had been dis-
covered as as to his whereabouts until
his body was fished out of Moshannon
creek, on Wednesday of last week.
“The body of R. K. Nelson, who dis-
appeared on Christmas night, was found,
on Wednesddy,in the Moshannon creek
at a point below town along the Beech
Creek railroad. The discovery was
made by two miners, John Muller and
Wm. Morgan, who were coming home
from work about 4 o'clock in the aven-
ing. Their attention was attracted to
an object protruding from the water,
which resembled a man’s head, and one
of them going closer was horrified to
discover that it was a human head.
With the assistance of Wm. Johns, an-
other miner, the body was taken from
the waterand proved to be that of Nel-
son the missing man, The corpse was
much decomposed and was covered with
worth’s undertaking rooms and exam-
the man fell into the water accidentally.
He was last seen about 11 o’clock on
Christmas night and was deeply intoxi-
cated, a condition common to him when
ever he could get liquor. He was a na-
one time he was in good circumstances,
a good citizen and a member of the M.
E. church. He wus a man of more than
ordinary intelligence, well educated and
but for his unfortune habit might have
been a useful, honorable member of so-
ciety, but he contracted a fondness for
liquor which ruined him. He left his
family and lived by himself in a ea bin
on the outskirts of the town and made
tool handles, which he sold for enough
to keep himself in food and liquor. His
men who tamper with liquor.
Tee EXTENsIoN EXTENDING, — In
an interview, with one of the managers
of the Bellefonte Central’s extension to
State College, yesterday, a WATCHMAN
reporter learned that the road will be
completed for the rolling stock much
sooner than was first expected. So
sanguine was he, of the early comple-
tion of the work, that he said : “had
the weather remained good we would
have had the iron nearly all done in
two weeks.” The big snow of Monday
and Tuesday retarded the workmen
somewhat, but they have been steadily
pushing through it, and the mud, until
at this writing the grading of half the
distance has been completed ready for
the ballast. Though the easiest part of
the work has been completed —as there
yet remains the hollow just below the
college barn, which must be crossed, and
the heavy grade at the junction—we
fully believe that the people at State
College will ses a train ranning into
their village by the first week of April.
The iron'and ties for the switches and Ya
at the junction, are on the ground ready
to be laid and when the grading is com-
pleted it will be a matter ofa very few
days until the track ‘is down. Forty
men and sixteen carts are now at work
and, under the practical direction of the
superintendent of the road, are making
it go with surprising rapidity.
Pravin 10 Crowpep Housms.—
The Anrie Mitchell Co., which appears
at the opera house next week, is playing.
this week in Williamsport Pa., to
crowded houses. At a recent matinee
performance 967 persons witnessed the
play. They do not carry a band or oth-
er street attraction, but evidently give
very fine dramatic performances, The
Norristown Daily Herald says :
The seven or eight hundred persons
who braved the Arctic weather last
night to witness the presentation of the
popular comedy : “The Phenix,” by
the Annie Mitchell Company, evidently
thought themselves amply repaid for
and applause which greeted the play.
Toe character of Gerald Gray, the im-
pecunious author, with an over fondness
for whisky—but who reforms after the
first act—was capably interpreted by
Harry Knight,. and Blanche, the
orange girl who takes more than a sister
ly interest in him, was spiritedly por-
trayed by Miss Mitchell. Frank Burt, a
Mike O’Concel and Moses Mosier, fur-
nished plenty of fun, The singing,
dancing and other specialties by Mr,
Burt, Addie Wade, Annie Mitzhell and
others, gave additional = spica to the
performance.

snow fell on the days of their perfor-
mance, and the weather was extremely
