KiLLep HEerseLr Because Her
Hussanp DranNk CIpER.—From the
Huntingdon Local News we clip the
following :
The wife of Arthur Moores,of Oneida
township, died suddenly under myster-
ious circumstances, on Wednesday |
night last. She had laid down on al
lounge, and shortly afterward expired.
Early the next morning a neighbor
came to the house and found an envel-
| lope on the floor under the lounge on
which was written the word ‘‘poison.”
The envelope was empty and suspicion
was aroused that she committed suicide.
Her husband was interrogated and said
that he and a man named Samuel
Streightiff had been drinking cider the
day before and that his wife had re-
remonstrated with him for drinking
and threatened to take poison if he did
not desist, He did not have the least
suspicion that she meant to carry her
threat into execution. She had been
eating pie, and it is believed that she
put the fatal powder, strychnine, on the
pie, and ate it, causing death ina few
minutes thereafter, He did not believe
she had taken poison until the next
morning when he discovered that his
dog had partaken of the pie, which he
had thrown out, and was dead. Mrs.
Moore was aged about 28 years, and she |-
and her husband had lived happily to-
gether, and were doing well, until the
demon liquor came into the home, and
the wife became uneasy and morbid in
consequence. They have one child, a
boy, about 4 years old. An inquest was
held on Friday afternoon by ’Squire
Samuel Peters. The verdict was that
she came to her death by poison admin-
istered by her own hand.
KILLED IN A DRUNKEN BRAWL AT
PHiLiPsBURG.—On Monday evening,
about eight o’clock, George Harris, of
North Philipsburg, received injuries,
by being thrown violently upon the
pavement in front of the Loyd House,
which resultel in his death at two
o'clock on the following afternoon,
While intoxicated he entered the bar
room and took a lively part in some
“scrapping’’ that was going on. The
crowd becoming excited rushed for the
door and ’twas while crowding out that
Harris met with his fatal injuries.
According to one report several of
the “drunks” grabbed Harris and pushed
him out while another is to the effect
that he stumbled on the steps and fell
headlong to the pavement. No matter
which one is true it is evident that some
oneis to blame for Harris’ death and
two arrests have been made already.
John F. Bonner, of Faulkner’s addi-
tion, and Harry Humphrey, of Philips-
burg, were held by Squire LaPort, a8
in some way responsible for the acci-
dent.
Harris leaves a wife and one child
and while sober was a mild, inoffensive
fellow who cared only tor his own af-
fairs. Hissudden death, nnder such
sad conditions, is a terrible warning to
all,
Frour From A New MiLL.—Last
week the first bill of flour reached this
place from the remodeled Centre Fuar-
nace Mills, owned by the Thompson es-
tate and operated by Jas. I. Thompson,
the youngest son of the late Moses
Thompson. After large expense and
almost endless trouble the old mill bas
been made new within, and new ma-
chinery and a new process is to-day
turning out the finest grades of roller
flour. The mill is admirably located in
the heart of a flourishing farming com-
munity and its hopper’s wil be fed
with the cream of Centre county wheat ;
hence none but the best flour need be ex-
pected from this mill. Clayton Elters is
its able superintendent. The WATCHMAN
is under many obligations to Mr.
Thompson for a sack of his ‘‘straight
grade’ and after a through trial we take
pleasure in adding our testimonial to its
guarantee of excellence.
RECENT APPOINTMENTS IN THE NA-
TIONAL GUARD.—Bellefonte’s coterie of
officers, in the N. G. P. has been astir
for some time over prospective appoint-
ments. The first excitement came when
Major Austin Curtin was taken from
his post as commissary of the 2nd Bri-
grade and given the whole Division to
look after. Then the death of Adj.
Gen. McClelland caused some thoughts
as to his successor. Sear’g’t. Singer,
Major Curtin’s aide in the Brigade, has
been promoted to the Major’s old posi-
tion and the list ends with Henry C.
Quigley’s promotion from Searg’t Major
to Quarter Master of the 5th Reg.
THE UNTERRIFIED,—And there were
only three of them: in Worth township.
On Saturday evening, March, 26th, in
response to chairman Pringle’s call,
three stalwart Republicans met to hold
the Worth township primaries. And
as there was three delegates to elect to
the county convention, held here on
Tuesday, it resolved itself into a case of
you tickle me and I'll feather you.
They chose each other. The powerful
tri-umvirate transacted other business
of unknown importance and adjourned.
——The family of H. D. Landis, left

——George Kirk, of Clearfield, is
spending a few days with his Uncle Dr.
Kirk. This it George's first visit to
Bellefonte since he left the high school
last spring and his schoolmates and
friends are making him feel very wel-
come.
——Dr. T. C. Vantries came in from
Blairsville during the fore partof the
week, and moved his family to their
new home in that place. The doctor
has been out their since last fall and is
highly pleased with the outlook. The
‘WATCHMAN wishes him and his family
a pleasant . and successful life in that
bustling Indiana town.
——@Gilbert A. Beaver, the son of
General James A. Beaver, is at the La-
fayette. He is closely identified with
the work of the Young Men’s Christian
Association and will eventually enter
the Presbyterian ministry. Mr. Beaver
ie a bright and entertaining speaker and
quite in demand among the associations
of the State.—Sunday’s Philadelphia
Press.
——On Monday last Miss Gertrude
Lane a younger sister of Miss Myrtle
Lane, who was a student at the College
for several years, and a daughter of
Geo. W. Lane, proprietor of the Lane
House, Oceola, was accidentally shot
through the right cheek, by her little
step brother Milie Davis, who was play-
ing with a toy or rather a target gun.
Two of her teeth were knocked out and
although the wound is not a dangerous
one it will leave an ugly scar.
——Tvery week we receive communi-
cations without signatures and we would
kindly remind our correspondents, that
nothing will be published unless accom-
panied by the real name ot the writer.
If you are ashamed of your production,
don’t send it, but rest assured we will
carefully edit anything you many send
in, and matters of general interest in
your community will be gratefully re-
ceived. The WATCHMAN columns are
open to all, but we must know who is
using them,
——A new Commandery of Knights
Templar was organized over at Pkilips-
burg last Friday night under the name
of the Moshannon Commandery. W.
I. Fleming, W. H. Peters, L. T. Mun-
son, Geo. B. Johnston, S. M. Buck,
John Olewine, Robert Cole and AC.
Mingle took part in the ceremonies and
stored away their share of the splendid
banquet which followed. Our Knights
came home with glowing accounts of
the fine equipments and bright pros-
pects of the new Commandery,
——We are indebted to Harry Chaa-
pel for his New Book of Flowers, Plants
and Seeds.” He advertises manv nov-
elties of rare beauty and his generous
offer of twenty-five good strong, healthy
plants for $1.00 gives every one in the
county an opportunity to have a beauti-
ful home. He does not neglect the practi
cal forsome pages are devoted to vegeta-
ble seeds, but his specialities are plants
and cut Fowers. Miss Lillian Barrett of
the telephone exchange is his agent in
Bellefonte and any orders given her or
sent direct to Williamsport will be
promptly filled.
——We have received from Elwanger
and Barry of Rochester N. Y. a catalo-
gue that would be helpful to any one
who is going to plant a tree, shrub, or
flower this Spring. The Mount Hope
Nurseries, which have been established
since 1840 have a wide reputation but
we would like to add our own little tes-
timony as we have never had an order
filled more promptly or satisfactiorly,
than one that establishment sent us some
months ago, and we take pleasure in re-
commending them to those who are
going to keep Arbor Day, enlarge their
orchards or beautify their lawns.
——We do hope that our philan-
thropists will not think it their duty to
go begging for the Russian sufferers be-
cause Lock Haven has held a public
meeting for that purpose and sent a car
load of flour to the vessel that is soon to
sail from Philadelphia. While we sym-
pathize with, and pity the poor, oppress-
ed peasants, we believe that ‘‘charity be.
gins at home’ and why cross the wide
ocean to seek objects needing ‘The
Helping Hand’ when each day we have
so many touching appeals from our own
towns people for the necessities of life.
Russia’s ery for help has not been un-
heeded in our community, however,for
only two weeks ago Rev. Miles O. Noll,
of the Reformed church took up a col-
lection for the sufferers which amounted
to $65.
Davip AUrRAND KiILLED.—A most
harrowing accident occurred, on the
Cherry Run siding, of the Lewisburg
and Tyrone railroad, last Saturday
morning at 11-45 o'clock in which
David Aurand, a brakeman on the local
freight train running betwee this place
and Sunbury, lost his life. ‘
The train on which Aurand worked
was No. 154 and it left Bellefonte on the
7 o'clock schedule. All went well un-
til Cherry Run,a small lumbering point
just below the Paddy Mountain tunnel,
was reached. The train had a car to
throw in on the siding and Aurand
turned the switch, When the car
came flying past he attempted to jump
on it, but slipping he fell under the
wheels. His left leg was cut entirely
off and and his left arm almost severed
and he received numerous internal in-
juries. When picked up he was con-
scious and talked to his brother, who is
a brakeman on the same train. In three
quarters of an hour he was dead. Ten-
derly the trainmen placed his remains in
a box car and they were taken on to
Lewisburg, where an undertaker pre-
pared them for burial. The body was
brought here on Saturday morning and
taken to McPherson’s, on Thomas street,
where he and his brother had boarded
happily together. On Monday he was
taken to Bald Eagle for burial.
David Aurand was the youngest of
five orphaned children, and was just 23
years of age. He was a quiet, unas-
suming young fellow and well liked by
his associates and employers.
Toe NEW SCHEDULE TO GO INTo Er-
FECT ON MoNDAY.—On Monday
morning the new schedule will go into
effect on the Bellefonte Central and
three trains will begin running, daily,
between this place and State College. A
temporary station has been built at the
College and it will serve all the purposes
until the new one iscompleted. It will
be an ornament to the grounds, being of
Queen Anne design and will be a con-
venient and commodious little structure.
The complete schedule can be found
elsewhere in this paperbut the three
trains will leave and arrive as follows:
Trains will leave Bellefonte at 6:30 a.
m.,and 4:40 p. m. arriving at State Col-
lege at 7:30 a. m., 11:20 a. m., and 5:30
p. m., respectively. Returning they will
leave the College at 8:10 a. m., 3 p. m.,
and 5:45 p. m., arriving in Bellefonte at

leave Red Bank at 8 in the morning
and at 5:45 ic the evening connecting
with regular trains at the junction and
returning will leave the junction at 7:19
a. m. and 5.16 p. m.
FELL DEAD oN THE FLooR. --Harvey
Lucas, a resident of Blanchard, dropped
dead Friday last. He had been a victim
of the grip, and recovered, as was
thought, at least sufficiently so as to be
able to be about. After eating his din-
ner he had occasion to visit Jas. De-
Long’s store, It "proved to be a fatal
visit. He went on his way no doubt
feeling buoyant and glad that he had
rid himself of that terrible grip. He
reached the store and while in there
suddenly fell to the floor, He was
hastily picked up and to the amaze-
ment of those present was found to be
dead. The slender thread had been
broken, ahd the man full of years and
in the enjoyment of the respect of the
citizens, had yielded up the ghost. De-
ceased was aged about 70 years and was
a married man. The death was not
looked for and all the surrounding cir-
cumstances created no little excitement
at first followed by great sympathy for
the aged man’sigrief stricken family. —ZL.
H. Democrat.
CLEARY REFUSED A NEW TRIAL. —
Despite the untiring efforts of his friends
and attorneys Charles Cleary must ex-
piate the shooting of policeman Paul, at
Renova, three years ago, on the gallows.
He has had two trials already and after
a second conviction a move for a new
trial was made. Judge Mayor refused
the petition and the case was carried to
the supreme court. On Monday that
body sustained the lower eourt and now
Cleary has but to prepare for the last
day on earth. It 1s sad indeed to think
of this young man’s awful position, but
his own action broughtit on and he
has none to blame but himself. Ev-
erything possible has been done to save
his life and the fact that he has had two
trials both of which resulted in convic-
tion is the best of evidence that it is just
that he should die.
Real ESTATE AND COLLECTION
AcENcY.—Mr. John C. Miller, a prac-
tical accountant,has opened a real estate
and collection agency, in Room 13. of
Crider’s Exchange and is ready to trans-
act all business in his line at the low-
est rates, Transfers of real estate,
money loaned and collected, houses
rented and sold and general wants of all
kinds carefully attended to. Mr. Mil.
ler's long experience with different firms
in this community, especially qualifies
him forthe work he has undertaken,
and we bespeak a literal share of the
public patronage for him.

burg, had business in town, on Mon-
day.
——Col. William Shortlidge, of the

can paper. Fools still persist in rush-
ing in, where wise men fear to tread.

isfactory result.

two of the prominent stockholders of
the Standard Scale company, were in

Woodland, Clearfield county, last Satur-
day, but Bellefonte’s attractions were
only able to keep him ’til Monday.
——Attorney Zeigler, of Philipsburg,
was bustling about the Court House, on
Monday morning. It is whispered that
Recorder Morrison ‘‘done up” the wily
young Lawyer.
——The nther day we noticed a whole
wagon load of baby carriagés going up
town so we suppose Rev. Mr. Noll and
Will Garman will have their little
daughters out for inspection one of these
fine days.

——PFrank Orosthwaite will {have

the new company’s interest to the satis-
faction of all.
——Moshannon Commandery, No.
74 K. T. was instituted, at Philipsburg,
last Friday. A number of visiting

——Prof. D. M. Wolf will open his
Spring Mills academy, on Monday,

large attendance will greet the able in-
structor. For those desiring to fit
themselves for teaching no better chance
can be had. Prof. Wolf, having been
county superintendent of schools, knows
exactly what is requisite for certificates.
——On Monday morning the Altoona
Times greeted its patrons ina greatly
improved form. It is now a clear page,
8 column sheet with new dress and
abundant telegraphic and local news.
Its publishers are certainly to be com-
plimented on the resultof their efforts to
give to the Altoona public a throughly
first class daily. and if the Times is not
appreciated it will certainly not be be-
cause it has failed to merit a most liber-
al patronage.
—— On Monday night Tyrone had a
burglar who. single handed, entered
eight different houses, between Jtwelve
o'clock and dawn. His reception at
some places was exceedingly warm
while at others his presence was not ev-
endreamed of. At the last house he
entered the owner shot three time at him
while fleeing down the} pavement and
when the smoke cleared away he was
horrified to see a black heap, as if a man
lying on the sidewalk. Calling his
neighbor they went down to examine
how badly the noctural visitor had been
hurt when they discoyered that it was a
surplus suit of clothes which his festive
sneak had found in some ones ward-
robe.
——An exchange whose editor evident-
ly has it, has furnished the following :—
“Backward turn backward, O Time in
your flight. and give me the nose that I
breathed through last night! Bring
the proboscis that a few days ago, knew
not the torment of continual blow.
Wipe from the mustache the moisture
of sneeze, and put wooden splints on my
poor, weakened knees ; rub my red nose
as you've oft done before, with softening
tallow, for it is so sore! Backwad, flow
backward, O, tide of the nose! [am so
tired from from my earsto my toes—-
tired of mopping and coughing and
sneezing, weary irom handkerchiefs,
constantly seizing—I have grown weary
of snuffie and snuff, of a wiping my nose-
lat until it is rough. Stick wy poor
head in a big pillow slip, and sew it up
tight, mother, for I have the grip.”
THE REPUBLICAN CoUNTY CONVEN-
VENTION..—On Tuesday the Republi-
can leaders from all over the county
came in to hold a convention. Riley
