We are glad to know that he is gelling

EASTER IN BELLEFoNTE.—Easter
and its rejoicings are past and in spite
of the threatening cloudy weather every
body went to church--some to listen to
the sermon, some to hear the beautiful
music, some to enjoy the artistic decora-
tions, and some to see the Easter finery,
but let the motive be what it was, our
nine churches were crowded with atten-
tive and devoted audiences, and while
we hope that curiosity alone prompted
very few Bellefonte people to go to
church. It is an idle ceremony that
impresses no one, and a weak sermon
that awakens no thought of present duty
and future accountability.
Special services were held in all the
churches and never before did the choir
leaders cover themselves with so much
glory. Joyful anthems echoed from
every Christian house of worship, while
the oder of rare flowers--that were
everywhere—in the churches, on the
dainty corsages of pretty girls, in the
button-holes of their escorts, and taste-
fully arranged on the home tables, veri-
fied the words that ‘Easter is the flower
of the Christian year.
“Vanity, vanity, all is vanity” is
what the old croaker remembered when
the drizzling rain began to fall about
ten o'clock. Certainly it caused many
a sigh but all the umbrellas and wraps
brought into use could not entirely de-
stroy the charming effect of the well
fitting gowns and exquisite bonnets that
outrivaled the chancels in their floral
decorations.
The white crepons and Bedford cords,
that we had been told our fashionable
modistes were nearly killing thetselves
to have ready for the day’s parade, did
not appear. Was it the lowering clouds
that kept them at home? or has the
Ward McAllister edict, that declares all
finery out of place upon a day of such
sacred significance, just reached Belle-
fonte? A good many of the costumes
were a strange mixture of winter com-
fort and spring beauty, Fur capes ac-
companied straw hats covered with
daffodils. Fancy ribbon streamers hung
down over dark Macintoshes while light
tailor made gowns were worn with the
winter's old toque. Strictly speaking
the Easter bonnet ‘wasn’t in it,” yet
had we been looking for ideas for the
home dressmaker, we could have found
more than she would have needed in two
Seasons.
These little worldly adornments, did
not overshadow the great truths of the
celebration—for while here and there
some one may have coveted her neigh-
bor’s bonnet, the beauty and color
only added brightness to the story of
the Resurrection, which was the theme
of nearly every one of the sermons.
At the Methodist church, which was
decorated with potted plants, Easter
lilies and Marchal Niel Roses, the ser-
vices were especially interesting. In
the morning Dr. Hamlin preached a
magnificent sermon from ‘Thisis my
Beloved Son,” and in the evening Mr.
Houck addressed a congregation that
crowded the auditorium to the doors.
A good fit had struck the Knights Temp-
lar and they attended the evening ser-
vice in a body. At both services excel-
lent music was sung both morning and
evening by a choir of ten voices, under
the direction of Miss Mary Schofield.
The Bester hymn “Christ is Risen” and
“Buck’s Te Deum’’ were especially fine,
and the solos by Miss Stott and Mr.
Cartwright have rarely been equaled in
this or any other town.
The Presbyterian chancel was a per-
fect bower of palms, potted plants and
cut flowers and a notable feature of the
day’s exercises in that church was a sun-
rise prayer meeting conducted by the
Christian Endeavor Society. The choir,
which is one of the best trained in the
town,zave a song service in the evening,
and a church fall of people, praised
highly the rendering of the following
program.
Organ Voluntary—*“Nazareth”..............Gounod.

Communion services and beautiful
flowers were the main feature at the Re-
formed church, which resembled a huge
tropical garden, live plants were banked
everywhere in the greatest profusion.
The reading desk was completely cover-
ed with white hyacinths and myrile,
scarlet geraniums were scattered on the
altar cloth, while great bunches of lilies,
tulips and roses decorated the pulpit and
tables. Tbe choir consisting of the
Misses Moore, Harper, Luchenbach,
Mrs. Jenkins and Messrs, Luchenbach,
Smith, Spangler ard Rhone, sang sev-
eral fine anthems, while the solos were
all well rendered.
At the Episcopal church a full vested
choir, under the direction of Mrs. Ben-
ton, with George Bayard, John Bullock,
Ed. Barrett, James Lane and Robbie
Lyon as soloists, added much to the at-
tractiveness of the services. Holy com-
munion wasadministered at 10 o’clock,
and the church looked beautiful in its
Easter dress of palms, ferns and lilies.
Six persons joined the Lutheran
church at the communion service in the
morning. The vesper services were
given over to the children and one of
the nicest features of the celebraticn was
an immense nest of colored eggs which
were distributed among the Sunday
school scholars after the service.
At St. John’s Catholic church the
altar was richly decorated with potted
plants and flowers and the services
throughout the day were all largely at-
tended.
——Hats both beautiful and reason-
able at Mrs, Gilmore's.
——The Cresson Ljterary society,
at State College, will produce Mr.
Loyd’s three act tragedy, ‘Chlorate,”
in the society hall, this evening.
—=Tt is rumored that John E. Du-
Bois, the DuBois millionaire, is to sell
his extensive coal and timber lands to
the Pennsylvania Railroad company.
——The Decker Brothers’ minstrels,
which appeared in the Opera House, on
Wednesday, gave the best of satisfaction
to a large audience. Their vocalists
were really of an exceptional order and
many new specialties were intro-
duced to makeup a pleasing program.
——Rev. James Heany passed a sat-
isfactory examintion before the board of
examiners, of the Huntingdon Presby-
tery and it was ordered that he be or-
dained and installed as pastor of Spring
Creek and Lemont churches, at an ad-
journed meeting of Presbytery on the
first Thursday of May.
Tue AssEMBLY A THING OF THE
PAsT.—On Monday evening the reor-
ganized Undine Hose Co., gave its first
public dance and from every point of
view it was a decided success. Good
music, a finely polished floor, lots of
pretty girls and general good order all
combined to make those who attended
have a good time. About eighty-one
dollars was the amount cleared, the
most of which will be spent on improv-
ing the equipment of the organization.
The boys deserve much credit for the
successful manner in which they con-
ducted it.
Suor His EMPLOYEE. --The follow-
ing account of a shooting affray, which
occurred on Tuesday night, will interest
manyof our readers because of its connec-
tion!with a Buffalo Run family. The wife
of the man Evans was Miss Ada Roller,
of Fillmore, who was first married to
Burton Sellers and only married her se-
cond husband a short time ago. She
wasin Bellefonte, on Wednesday, and
had not heard of her husband’s crime.
MoxoGAHELA City, April 19.—A
mysterious shooting affray occurred late
to-night at Lock No. 4, which will re-
sult in the death of one of the partici.
pants.
James Evans operates a steam feather
renovator boat, and among the employ-
eos is P. W. Painter. The boat was ly-
ing at Lock No. 4, when the people on
shore were startled by three shots in
rapid succession. Investigation showed
that Painter had been fatally shot. Ev-
ans was jealous of his employee.— Phila.
Press.
Counci,. DowN To BuUSINESs.—At
the regular meeting of council, on Mon-
day evening, another attempt to post-
pone the consideration of the police
question was made, but without avail.
The first business to come up was the re-
quest of the Logan Steam Fire Engine
Co., through its president, Mr. Thomas
Shaughensy, for 500 feet of new hose.
This was followed by a request from
the Undines for two nozzles. Both
were referred to the Fire and Police
commitiee. Iix-Burgess Reeder pre-
sented an itemized bill for $13.45 which
he had paid in excess of receipts. Coun-
cil ordered the money refunded. The
‘Street committee reported many board-
walks and streets in bad condition, but
as a borough engineer has not yet been
appointed they cannot be repaired.
The Water committee reported a num-
ber of leaks and necessary repairs and
John W. Cooke then asked that an
alley be located at the rear of his prop-
erty, on Allegheny street, but Council
refused to have anything to do with it
as it is a private matter altogether.
The most important business of the
evening was then taken up, viz: the
election of police. The four names pre.
sented were H. H. Montgomery, Frank
Westcott, William Gares and David
Haines and as Cap’t. Montgomery was
the only applicant for the position of
Chief his election was made unanimous.
One vacancy thea remained to be filled.
On the first ballot Gares received two
votes, Wescott, three, and Haines, one.
The latter ‘was then dropped and a
second ballot resulted in a tie between
Westcott and Gares. On the third bal-
lot Mr. Garman, member from the South
ward, voted with ' the Republicans and
elected Gares. i
The new police will begin duty on
May 1st. and they will reccive a salary
of $35,00 per month.
A ForMER CENTRE COUNTIAN’S No- |
VEL INVENTION. — Many of the
WATCHEMAN'S readers will remember
George C. Baker, the proprietor of the
Howard Rolling Mills, .who was suec-
ceeded by the Jenkins Brothers, the
present owners, and will be pleased to
learn that he has just brought a little
invention, which he has been working
on for years, to a successful eefhpletion.
Most of the time he was in business,
at Howurd, was given to his pet, and
every contrivance which his great gen-
ius could suggest was used to perfect it.
Nearly every resident in that thriving
little borough will remember his copper
model of a sub-marine boat and perhaps
no few of the have seen it working, in
the creek, near that place. His very
soul was wrapped up in it, and truly
characteristic of an inventor he was
‘ wedded to the little craft which now
gives promise of making his name illus-
! trious and his future a success.
Some years ago the model was
brought up to this place and given a
trial in the race, near Jenkins & Lin-
gle’s foundry. This was done to enlist
the inerest of William P. Jenkins, the
senior member of the firm and a man
of considerable inventive genius, be-
causejust then the equipment of the lit-
tle boat required some intricate mechan-
18m which Mr. Baker did not under-
stand. While it was skimming aboat
in the water, in the race, Mr. Baker
stood on the shore and directed its move-
ments by the use of three strings. It
would dive under the surface and then
suddenly come up again at some point
farther down the stream. This was the
source of much wonderment to the few
spectators who stood amazed at the pe-
culiar actions of the toy.
Mr. Baker sold his Howard works
and invested his money in a working
model which was tried at Detroit, Mich-
igan, on the 10th inst.,with the follow-
ing result : “The nameless sub-marine
boat, invented by Mr. Geo. C. Baker,
of Chicago, was given a thorough trial
under water and has proved to be a
success in every particular. With a
crew of three on board, the boat started
from its dock on the river Rouge and at
first skimmed along over the surface to-
ward the Detroit River. It was then
submerged going down gradually and
under perfect control of the pilot. Un-
der water the boat was able to attain a
speed of over ten miles an hour, to turn
around and rise or sink with the greatest
of ease. The boat was submerged sev-
eral times under different circumstances
and proved that the peculiarly con-
structed propellers were well adapted to
their purpose. It was also proven that
in sinking or rising the boat maintained
a horizontal position, a matter of great
importance in a sub-marine boat. The
boat is equipped to run by steam power
while on the surface, but underneath
the water the motive power comes from
a powerful electric storage battery, the
cells being charged by the same {engine
that runs the boat on the surface.
The present boat was built only as
an experiment. [tis of the shape of a
thick cigar, with pointed ends and com-
pressed sides, being 40 feet long, 14 feet
deep, and 9 feet beam.

Joux CoPENHAVEN.—On Monday,
the 11th inst., at his residence, in Tay-
lor township, Mr. John Copenhaven,
quietly passed over into the valley and
the shadow of death. Years ago Mr.
Copenhaven was one of the busiest and
most progressive citizens of the upper
end of the county, but of late; years
some physical infirmity having over-
taken him, he has remained quietly up-
on his farm, seldom if ever going away,
and so far as general business matters
were concerned, had dropped out of
them almost entirely. During the days
of turnpike travel he kept the Copen-
haven stand, at the foot of the Alleghe-
nies, on the Philipsburg and Tyrone
pike, and for a long time was proprietor
of the Copanhaven distillery that had
the reputation,in its day, of turning out
the purest liquor to be found in the
county. Back in the sixties he moved
to Bellefonte to take charge of the old
brick hotel, upon the site of which the
present Brockerhoff’ house now stands,
but had not been in it long until the
building and its contents were destroyed
by fire, and he returned to Taylor town-
ship, where he has since resided. He
was a good hearted, hospitable, well-
meaning mun, and many a kind act,
done for a neighbor or friend in need,
will be found credited to his account in
the book of final reckoning. He was
about sixty-eight years of age and leaves
a widow, two sons and a daughter.

——To-night the Marks Military
Band, of Renova, will give a musicale

loists accompany the organization.
——On Saturday, the 30 inst., Mr.
H. L. Harvey, of Central city, Boggs
township, will offer at public sale, two
excellent Devon cows, a superior organ,
and a large lot of household furniture of
all kinds. Sale will commence at one

——1If you should chance to want to
make ice-cream some of these days, and
the ice man is not to be found, you can
freeze it quickly in this way, and it will
only cost you a few cents: If the pre-
paration to be frozen is placed in a tin
bucket or other receptacle, it can be
readily congealed by putting it in a
«til containing a weak dilution of sul-
phuric acid and water. Into this throw
a handful of common glauber’s salt,
and the resulting cold is_ so great that
ice cream or ices will be frozen solid in
a few moments.

——On Tuesday evening the Belle,
fonte scciety of Christian Endeavor ac-
cepted an invitation to attend a sociable
given by the State College Society and
thirty-eight young ladies and gentle-
men, from this place, shared the hospa-
tality of their co-workers in Christ, at
the College. The first part of the pro-
gram, for the entertainment of the visi-
tors, consisted in music, prayer and a
very interesting address by Rev. Spoon-
er, of Altoona. After this part a recep-
tion was held at the home of Dr. Geo.
W. Atherton, president of the College,
where a delightful evening was spent.
Everyone seemed charmed, with the
entertainment and the Bellefonte visi-
tors returned well pleased with their lit-
tle trip. .
AMATEUR THEATRICALS.—The ama-
teur talent of the Bellefonte Academy
will produce two short plays, at the
Opera House, on next Thursday even-
ing, and a number of specialities will be
included to make a full and pleasing
program. One of the plays, “the only
man 1n town’’ was produced in Calis-
thenic hall, atthe Academy, last fall
and a large audience was fairly capti-
vated with the successful manner in
which the young people handled it.
«A Country School” is the other play
they have decided on and itis said to
have considerable more go and merri-
ment than its companion piece.
Prof. Meyer’s new orchestra will fur-
nish the music and Miss Georgie Lam-
bert, of Philadelphia, Miss Emma
Hughes and otbers will have instrumen-
tal numbers. Three beautiful calis-
thenic figures will complete the even-
ing’s entertainment.

Tae A. M. E. CONFERENCE IN SES-
ston IN Tris Prace.—Since Tuesday
morning, at 9 o'clock, the Pittsburg
District Conference of A. M. E. church
has been in session, in this place, and
when adjournment was made last night
the members present had accomplished
much work of importance and felt that
they could return to their congregations
much better tor the time they had spent
in communion with each other. Kleven
meetings were held and St. Paul's
church was well filled at every one,
On behalf of the congregation Wili-
jam Mills, in a few well chosen words,
welcomed the visitors, to the hospitable
homes of the church, and hoped that
their visit would result in mutual
benefit.
The Conference was made up of a
very intelligent looking body of men
and our colored brethren are to be con-
gratulated that their church is presided
over by such a body. Among the nota-
able ministers present were :
D. S: Bentley, Presiding Elder, Pitts-
burg, Pa.: Richard Tanner, William-

Pure Foop Exmainrr.—There are
cocoas and cocoas, but if you have not
tasted Vau Houten’s,properly prepared,
you have never realized the perfection
of cocoa. Wesay this advisedly, for
we sell it, and our customers for it will
have no other.
To prove our judgmeut is correct, ; we
will give at our store for one week, be.
ginning Monday, April 25th, a practi-
cal test of the merits of this famous
baverage, and extend a cordial invita-
tion to the public to be present.
There will be nocharge. Everything
connected with the exhibition 1s free.
It seems high, but those who use it
say not. When you learn how to pro-
perly prepare it. you will acknowledge
having learned a lesson in domestic
economy.
To illustrate this point and attract
attention to the delicious flavor and
aroma of Van Houten’s cocoa, is the ob-
ject of this demonstration.
‘We aim to give our customers full val-
an2.598 every dollar, and our willingness
to “show up’’ the goods we seil is the
best endorsement of fair dealing.
No charge. Everything free next

He Must HAVE THE RECIPE Down
FINg.—On a Western express train, on
the Pennsylvania railroad.the other day
was a Polish Jew family that greatly
interested the other passengers on the
train. The interest all centered in the
size of the family, which consisted of
Jankel Ripka Weissman, his wife and
22 children. Seven of the 22 were
traveling free, being under 5 years of
age, and the other 15 paid only half
fares. Ordinarily half fares are only
allowed for children less than 12, years
old, but it is supposed that in this case
the rule was stretched a little in order
to reduce the traveling expenses. Both
Jankel and his wife are still in the
prime of life, and the prospect for sev-
eral additions to the family seemed ex-
cellent, Of the 22 children a number
were said to be twins and triplets. The
family occupied the best part of a second
class car, and were on their way to St.
Louis, being assisted by Baron Hirsch
in their flight from Russia.—Ez.
