COMMENCEMENT AT THE COLLEGE.—
In accordance with the alterations, re-
cently made in the charter of the Penn- |
sylvania State College, the time for
Commencement has been changed. For |
years the week of graduating exercises |
has come about the latter part of June
or the first few daysin July. This has
always been a source of inconvenience
to friends of the institution who desired
attending the consummation of the
year's work; because, in many in-
stances, families had already gone on
their summer excursions, or the weather
was so hot that a week in a crowded
college would be almost unbearable.
These, and the fact that the college
term at P. S. C. was longer than that
at any other institution in the country,
led to a change in the length of the col-
lege year.
The exercises, which are preparatory
to the graduation of the class of ’92, will
begin on Sunday, June 12th, with the
Baccalaureate sermon, by Rev. S. D.
McConnell, D. D., of Philadelphia.
On Monday evening, June 13th, at
8. p. m., the Junior Oratorical contest
will take place, and the program for
Tuesday will be as follows : 8:30 a. m.,
annual meeting of the Alumni Associa-
tion: 9:45, a. m., Artillery Salute; 10
a. m., meeting of the Trustees; 12 m.,
Alumni dinner; 2p. m., meeting of
Delegates and Alumni to elect Trustees;
3 p. m. Exhibition Drill ; 8 p. m., An-
nual address by Hon. 'W. TU. Hensel.
Attorney General of Pennsylvania ;
9—11 p. m., Reception in the Armory
by the Faculty.
On Wednesday morning the class of
'92 will say “farewell” to its alma mater
and launch its frail cratt on the sea of
hope. Hon. Wm. T. Harris, U. S.
Commissioner of Education, will deliv-
er the address.
The Bellefonte Central R. R. will ar-
range special trains to the College and
sell excursion at all points along the
line.
Remember the change of time and
also the shortening of the week. As
heretofore graduation exercises have al-
ways been held on Thursday morning,
but hereafter they will be just one day
earlier and the rest of the program
necessarily brought one day earlier also.
CouxciL IN SesstoN.—Council con-
vened on Monday evening, with presi-
dent Hillibish and members Potter,
Dartt, Garman and Jamison present.
The first business transacted was the
hearing of reports of committees. Chair-
Potter reported, on behalf of the Street
committee that the annual cleaning up
was well under way and advised that A.
G. Morris’ offer of stones for piking, at
50cts. per gross ton, he accepted. Chair-
man Williams of the Water committee
reported the mains, through the town,
badly in need of repair, also that much
water is being wasted at the rail-road
tank, below town. During the report
of this committee a decree to shut the
water off of Samuel Cherry, who lives
on Methodist hill, until he pays his ar-
rearage in tax was issued. A claim for
$60,00 tax from the brick row owned by
Spangler and Gephart, was put in a so-
licitor’s hands for collection.
In behalf of the Fire and Police com-
mittee, Garman reported the condition
of the Undine company’s’ hose to be
very good while that of the Logan
Steamer Co., was not fit to use. New
uniforms were ordered for the police and
it is to be hoped that when they are se-
cured we will have officers that we need
not be ashamed of. Blue is the right
color for the suits, and council should
impose a light fine on the officer who
does not keep up a natty appearacce
while on duty. A number of minor
matters were considered and council ad-
journed.
A BRILLIANT ASSEMBLY.——On last
Friday evening the Class of '92 of the
Pennsylvania State College gave the
last Assembly which it will conduct as
undergraduates at that institution , and
a most fitting farewell was it to the so-
cial world in which the class has played
a prominent a part ever since its entry
into colleg~. Pleasant memories linger
always with us, and ‘twas such a hope
that prompted ’92 to give to Terpsi-
chore the reign of that night. Surely
the floors of the great Armory have nev-
er been graced with more dainty feet
than danced to the dreamy strains of
Fiske’s orchestra and never has young
manhood and young womanhood been
more resplendent in the enjoyment of
an evening’s pleasant assemblage.
The Class had made the most elabor-
ate preparations for the reception and
entertainment of their guests and not a
jar was noticed in the conduct of the
evening. Everything was conducive to
a perfect time, and it was had. A hun-
dred couples carried home with them,
that night, the kindest thoughts for ’92
and long years hence their last dance
will be remembered as one of the tri-
umphsin the social affairs at the College.

left for their home in Scranton, Tuesday
morning.
——There will be a meeting of the
new Mountain League base-ball associa-
tion, at Tyrone, to-day. Houtzdale will
more than likely be admitted to take
Altoona’s place.
——Mrs. I. P. McCreary, wife of as-
sistant R. R. Supervisor, I. P. Mec-
Creary, of Osceola, and a sister of Mrs.
A. C. Mingle, of this place, died from

——A mong our many pleasant call-
ers, during the past week was Matt Sav-
age editor of the Clearfield Public Spirit,
Mr. Savage has been attending [court
and finds a few days rest from his editor-
ial work quite pleasant indeed.
——Geo B. Goodlander, Esq., the
veteran editor of the Clearfield Republi-
can, one of the strongest and most relia-
ble Democratic journals in the Common-
wealth, spent the later part of last week
trying the efficency of Bellefonte brac-
ing air and pure water.
——The College ball team defeated
the Dickinson College nine, on Friday
afternoon, by the score of 15 to 9. The
game was a miscrable exhibition of ball
playing, though exciting because of the
constant changing of the score. It took
ten innings to decide it.
———1It takes just 53 tons of hay, 2
tons of straw, 220 bushels of oats, 220
pounds of beef, for the carnivorous ani-
mals, 300 pounds of beef, pork and veal
for the cooking tent, 300 pounds of fish
and 780 loaves of bread to keep}Fore-
paugh’s animals for one day.
——Dr. D. 8. Monroe, now of JAl-
toona, who is well known to our; towns
people. has been elected Secretary
of the General Conference of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church that is now in
session at Omaha, Neb. Four years ago
when the conference met in New York
he held the same office, and eight years
ago he was assistant Secretary. This is
quite an honor for Central Pennsylva-
nia but Dr. Monroe is one of the ablest
men of the church and is evidently re-
cognized as such, by his fellow preach-
ers.
—— In writing of the, 4th of July
celebration which we intend having,
this year, the Lock Haven Democrat
remarks, “If some person touches the
match to a big fire cracker the natives
of sedate Bellefonte will think another
earthquake has visited them as they did
a few daysazo when there was an ex-
plezion at the stone quarry near there.”
‘We would just say to the Democrat
that Bellefonters hear more blasting and
sounds of industry in one day than do
the people of thatold town do in a
month, and the only time they geta
good shaking up is when the malaria
and ague begin operations.
——The following little quotation
from the Williamsport Republican will
give you an elegant idea of how the
Dickinson college boys played down
there. ‘“Arrayed in suits ot dazzling
splendor the Dickinson College club, of
Carlisle,essayed to give the peoplean ex-
hibition of the manner in which base
ball is played at the Temples of Learn-
ing. It was an exhibition, but it was
awful... Over-throws, muffs and fumbles
follewed one another in quick succession
and we can positively assert that the
Dickinson College club is the worst ex-
cuse for a ball club that has yet faced
the famous ‘‘Maroons.”” Mr. Court-
ney if you want the support of your ad-
mirers, give us better games. Even
Wing Sing, the popular Celestial
laundryman, was utterly disgusted with
his initial sight of the great American
game.”” The game resulted in the score
of 22 to 8.
Last Saturday afternoon Miss
Tessie Lyon, who was gathering arbu-
tus with a party of young people away
up along the Bellefonte and Central
rail-road, lost her watch ; but did not
notice that it was gone ’til she had start-
ed for home. Accomodating as conduc-
tor Parker is he could not be persuaded
that a watch was of as much importance
as his reputation as a time keeper and
stop the train he wouldn't. Tess con-
fident that she remembered the spot
coaxed her father to go with ber next
morning and bright and early they
started, on what seemed to be a wild
goose chase, for the arbutus field is ten
miles from town and covers acres of the
“Barrens.” Almost the first thing they
saw on entering the woods was the
watch, but as the good fortune is not
likely to happen to every one, we would
advise picnicers not to put their watches
in their belts when they go to gather
flowers.

THE CouRrT’s DoiNgs.—The second
week of court began, on Monday, with
the consideration of the case brought by
Treasurer Gramley to recover interest
on funds left for disbursement by his
predecessor. The case involved many
technicalities and excited considerable
attention because of the fact that the
descision of the court would establish-
ment a precedent. A verdict was ren-
dered in favor of the plaintiff for
$5321,30.
Agnes Shoemaker vs. Philipsburg
School Board, to recover eight months
salary, was the next case considered.
After having been selected an instruc-
tor and having taught one month, she
was asked for her resignation ; without
apparent cause. Miss Shoemaker re-
fused to resign and her successor was
appointed. One morning when she

Wm. Walker vs. A. P. and George
Krape, a case involving the recovery of
two notes for $300 and $500 respective-
ly. Verdict for plaintiff.
The case of [sabella Lohr vs. Philips-
burg Boro. was taken up Wednesday
afternoon, and up to the time of our go-
ing to press was occupying the atten-
tion of the Court. The case was
brought to recover damages occasioned
by a fall which the plaintiff had while
passing over a bad boardwalk in that
place. She has thus far shown that
she received permanent injury to her
arm and a physician has testified that
she will never be able to use the mem-
ber again. As Mrs. Lohr’s work is the
only means of income the family has,
they are in destitute circumstances be-
cause of her crippled condition. Peo-
plein this vicinity will remember her
as the wife of David Lohr, who is now
so badly crippled up with rheumatism
that he can scarcely move. A verdet
of $958,69 was returned for Mrs. Lohr
just as we closed our forms.

OLD Pross.
FOR May.—Rev. Ira
Hicks, the great American forecaster
and dealer in weather generally, has
reads, “Laws of the Burgesses and Town
Council of the Borough of Huntingdon,
commencing October, 1796, Volume 1.”
The borough was incorporated by an
act of Assembly approved March 29th,
our peace loving friends out at the
promulgated the following weather pro-
gramme for the month of May :
Cold, clear weather will advance from
the west to eastern parts of our continent
during the first five days of May. iy
the 3d a warm wave will appear in the
west, attended by a low barometer and
storm developments of marked intensity.
Within forty-eight hours of 6 p. m., on
the 4th—the center of the perion-- storms
of marked cyclonic possibilities, attend-
ed by hail, rain and thunder, will visit
most parts of the country. Frosts are
almost sure to follow in the rear of
storms about the night of the 4th or 5th,
in the north and west, reaching the east-
ern sections a day or two later. Watch
and see. Centering on the 10th and 11th,
reactionary conditions of temperature
and barometric pressure, ending in
storms, may be counted on.
The next storm period is central on
the 16th, bringing its culminating stages
especially in the eastern parts of the
country, exactly on the 18th—the cen-
tral day of a Venus disturbance. The
period runs from the 14th to the 19th.
A series of heavy storms recurring in
cycles of twenty.four hours—say each
afternoon and evening—will most likely
result for several days about this time.
Heavy frosts will be heard from to the
northward between the 16th and 21st.
On and about the 23d, look for the re-
turn of very warm days, with reaction-
ary storms greatly intensified by the Ve-
nus equinox.
~The last storm period for the month is
from the 25th to the 80th--aperiod call-
ing for constant and careful watchful-
ness in the event of hou days, south
winds and the formation of active storm
clouds. On the 25th falls the new moon
equinox of Mercury on the 29th; we
may almost surely expect disturbances
of great violence. The phenomenal
rains which we expected at the end of
April and in May have been precipitat-
ed by Mars and Saturn combination,
resulting in great and disastrous floods.
i
Several week ago we gave an ac-
count of a drunken brawl which oczur-
red in this vicinity and credited it to a
family supposed to have been living at
the Valentine iron works. We made a
mistake in this, however, as the distur-
bance did not occur at the forge, but up
along the Lewistown pike. We make
this correction out of consideration for
forge, who may have felt aggrieved at |
thinking they had such hoodlums among
them.

In A NEw FieLp.—The dissolution
of the firm of Bunnell & Aikens, music
dealers of this place, which occurred
last week has resulted in our losing the
senior member of the firm. Mr. J. M.
Bunnell has left his partner to continue
the business at the old stand, to open a
music store in Philipsburg: He has se-
cured a suitable room on Front street,
the principal thoroughfare of that thriv-
ing coal town, and doubtless will make
a success of the venture.
Mr. Bunnell’s long experience in
handling musical instruments of all
kinds and makes thoroughly fits him for
the caretul transaction of business, in
his line. His acquaintance in this com-
munity is the best guarantee of his inte-
grity, and the fact that he has handled
nearly every known make of pianos
makes him thoroughly conversant with
the peculiarities of each. We bespeak
for him a liberal patronage.
