MEMORIAL DAY I¥ BELLEFONTE.—
As time rolls on, and one by one the
brave souls who fought for the Union so
well are numbered among the dead,
there is little left for the hands of their
posterity to do, but strew flowers on the
green mounds that mark their resting
place and shed tears for the memory of
our heros. One day in the yearis a
holiday on which the heroic dead are to
honored, and wisely enough that one
falls on a date when nature is most rad-
iart in her floral attire. The children
and battle scarred veterans pluck them,
and with songs of praise consecrete such
emblems of purity and friendship to the
memory of departed comrades.
Bellefonte has always observed the
30th of May with appropriate services
and this year will proveno exception to
the rule. Gregg Post has already begun
preparations for holding memorial cere-
monies over the graves of their comrad-
es and the following program of ar-
rangments has been issued from their
rooms :
Parade will form in Diamond square,
in front of the Court House, at 2
o'clock p. m., right resting on north
side of High street, in the following or-
der—Music, Orator in Carriage, Com-
pany B. Gregg Post, Visiting Comrades
Camp 447, P. O. S. of A. Camp 639, P.
0 8S. of A., Citizens—and will move at
2} o’clock promptly, by wheeling into
platoons and marching over the follow-
ing route : Allegheny to Howard street;
Howard to Spring street; Spring to
Bishop street ; Bishop to Allegheny
street ; Allegheny to Howard street ;
out Howard street to Union cemetery.
Arriving in the cemetery the parade will
form 4 square, enclosing four graves pre-
viously designated with post and nation-
al colors, in the centre. The following
program of services will be gone through
with: Opening ceremonies by the
commander ; ode ; prayer by the chap-
lain ; dirge by the bond ; decoration of
four (4) graves in honor of all deceased
soldiers and sailors ; oder ; pecoration oi
all soldiers’ aand sailors’ graves; re-
assembling. of comrades by bugle call ;
dirge by the band ; memorial address by
comrade General F. P. 8. Gobin, of Le-
banon, Pa. Benediction.
OLD SQUIRE RANKIN WAS T0O SLICK.
—. Last fall, 1f our readers, will remem-
ber, we published an account of ’Squire
Rankin’s embezzlement of funds left in
his trust and also of his great scheme for
purchasing farms without any other
bonds than his “promise to pay.” The
reports of the Squire's defalcations ap-
peared in nearly all of Centre and Clear-
field county papers, but at last they
were denied by some of his friends
down at Howard. Everyone was in a
quandary, then, as to whether the stories
were true. One thing was eminently
suspicious : The Squire was missing,
from his home at Karthaus, and two
notes were due, with the settlement of
an estate left in his charge.
‘Nothing has been heard of Squire
Rankin since last fall and indeed his
friends began to think him guilty of the
charges brought against him. but the
climax was capped, the other day, when
carpenters went to remodel his late resi-
dence. High up under the roof, a cosy
little room was fixed up in one of the
many gables, and there sat the sly old
fellow smoking his pipe as complacently
as if nothing had ever happened. All
of the time that officers have been hunt-
ing him he has been sitting up there
beside his little stove and as one by one,
his bondsmen have trotted up to Clear-
field to make good the obligations of
their wily friend, he has been perched
up there blowing enough smoke rings to
get himself engaged to all the girls in
christendom, for you know the ’Squire
was a great ladies’ man. Having mar-
ried a girl, here whom he met while giv-
ing testimony on the Andrews murder
case. Not even the Sheriff’s hammer, as
it knocked off his personal effects, dis-
turbed him and we suppose he would
have been up there yet if the carpenters
had not found him out.
At one time ‘Squire Rankin was one
of the most respected citizens of Kart-
haus, Clearfield county, but he has fall-
en from grace and is now in the same
hole with many others who do not have
their wings clipped in time.
By ELECTRICITY To LEWISTOWN.—
The Lewistown and Bellefonte electric
railway company, with a capital of
$400,000, was on Friday last granted a
charter at the State department. The
line will extend from the village of
Reedsville through the valley of Milroy,
thence to Centre Hall, to the depot of
the Bald Eagle Valley railroad in
Bellefonte, The directors of the com-
pany are W. P. Stevenson, James
Macklin, McVeytown; C. R. Marks,
Johnson Murthersbaugh, A. P. Martin,
W. W. Trout, Lewistown.
it is hardly probable that any ot the
readers of this article will ever ride on
the proposed road. 3
bride, nee Miss Eva Gray, were in town
on Tuesday preparing for housekeeping.
They had just returned from an extend-
ed bridal tour and will reside at Benore,
where Mr. Clemson is general Sup’t of
the large Scotia ore operations of An-
drew Carnegie.

are both trying to get up a 4th of July
demonstration.

time one of the leading papers of Union
county, has been sold to astock com-
pany for $1,226.
— Kellar the wizard, the magician
and the most skilled in the art of ledger-
demain will be here for a matinee, on

——Ex-banker-preacher Dill, of Clear-
field, was indicted by the grand jury, at

$21,000 of the funds of the Houtzdale
bank. Perhaps others will be implica-
ted.
— Hoover & Emerick’s store, at
Scotia, was burglarized on last Thurs-
day night. Some trousers, neck-wear
and the contents of the money drawer
made up the plunder. They entered by
a front window. The rail-road station
was also broken into, but nothing of
value was taken. The telephone was
torn from the wall at the latter place.
— Wilmer Tate, the oldest son of
Col. D. K. Tate, more commonly known

natti. On Monday ha leaves for
Kentucky where he will join a summer
theatrical company playing “Hilarity.”
«Punk’s” part will be knock-a-bout
German song and dance artist.
——There is an art in everything, no
matter what it is, and accordingly some
people possess more skill in certain lines
than others. Among the class of men
who cater to man’s animal appetite Mr.
Jacob Kast, ot Half Moon, has become
especially noted. Noted for the super-
jor quality of the bologna he makes. He
is now butchering for the Matterns and
the trade to which he caters can certain-
ly congratulate itself upon the skill of
the man who serves it, for Mr. Kast is in
every respect a first class butcher.
——The many Bellefonte friends of
Mr. Alfred Herkheimer, not very long
since a resident of our town, will be
sorry to learn thet he recently met with
an accident which it is feared will prove
fatal. He lives, with his parents, in Wil-
liamsport now and when the word came
to us that he had been crushed between
two cars we were sorely grieved. Al
was always a jovial, whole souled fel-
low whom everyone liked and it is our
sincere hope that his injuries may not
prove as serious as they are thought to
be.
—— Huntingdon county is bankrupt
and the situation is summed up in the
following : “At a recent meeting
of the board of county commis
sioners 1t was found that the
legal limit of assessments on real es-
tate in the county —ten mills--had been
reached. It was decided, however, to
lay a special tax levy of about four
mills, making a total of fourteen mills,
in order to reduce, if possible, the coun-
ty’s bonded indebtedness, which
amounts to $166,611. An increase of
$351;778 in assessments was also agreed
upon, which will make the total assess-
ed valuation of property in the county
$5,789,028.

ARBOR DAY AT OUR ScHOOLS.--Gov-
ernor Pattison’s proclamation concerning
Arbor day bad not made the same im-
pression on us as it had on many of our
school children, and last Friday morn-
ing when we met so many little girls
and boys dressed up in their very best
we could not imagine what great event
was going to be celebrated, but after
noticing that nearly every child carried
a buach of flowers, it dawned on us that
it was the 6th of May. The day,—
every man, woman and child in Pennsyl-
vania had been asked to plant a tree or
shrub, to beautify their surroundings
and to prevent the great calamities that
the Foresty association say will surely
befall us, if we allow our country to be-
come treeless.
From the scholars’ bright and happy
faces, tree planting was a pleasure even
if it was accompanied by some sugges.
tion work and by an official document.
Arbor day has always been observed
in the Bellefonte schools; but never
have they had better programs or more
appreciative audiences than they had on
last Friday. The rain interfered some-
what with the outdoor exercises, but the
trees were planted and nature wanted to
help on the good work.
Atthe north ward building all the
schools had prepared some special exer-
cise. Recitations were given, songs were
sung, flowers were represeried by little
children and every actor ir: the celebra-
tion showed careful and thorough train-
ing. Up at the High school building
the primary and intermediate schools
held their exercises in the morning.
When Miss Levy’s school planted a
tree in honor of Prof. D. M. Lieb, the
hope was expressed that ‘with the sum-
mer’s sun and life giving air, health and
strength would come back to the princi-
pal, who has been resting for a year, and
that he who has made the schools of the
town what they are—may soon return to
them strong and well.”
At the High school, the exercises
were especially interesting as the Rey-
nolds prize a gold medal or fifteen dol-
lars was contested for, in addition to the
regular class day exercises, David Kel-
ley, Miss Maggie Teats, Miss Gussie
Stover, Harris Heylman, Rufus Strohm
George Miller, Miss Grace Luckenbach
and John Miller all did so well, in spite
of their old and hackneyed subjects, that
had we been one of the judges we would
have been tempted to have taken up a
public subscription and given them all
prizes, however when the judges, J. C.
Meyer, E. R. Chambers, and W. E.
Gray announced that Miss Maggie
Teats, who had recited “My Mother’s
Grave,” had won the honor the general
verdict was, that it had been rightly
bestowed. Miss Gussie Stover, who re-
cited “The Dumb Savior’ received hon-
orable mention and came with in one
vote of winning the prize. Music by
Miss Schofield, Miss Ella Twitmire Miss
Tessie Peters and Miss Laura Wright
filled out the program and on account
of the rain, the class day exercises took
place in the school room. A well writ-
ten history of the class by. John Bower,
was read by Miss Bessie Stroup and
Harry Gerbrick made the address at
the planting of the tulip tree, which re-
presents the class of 92 and which was
planted in the memory of Carol Cri-
der. who was a member of the class be-
fore he entered Dickinson college, and
who died 1n September,

A BurGLAR Came IN HANDY.—
About six months ago an order arrived
at the Sub-Treasury directing the Treas-
urer to have all the locks on the vaults
cleaned. Among those that were tak-
en out was one on a reserve vault con-
taining $12,000,000 in silver. From
the lock, on the door tothis vault,
the locksmith took only such parts as
needed to be cleaned, leaving the rest in
the door. When the vault was closed
the tumblers fell into their places, the
“catch” of the time lock, or the part
that was left, caught all right, and the
door was securely locked—so securely
locked, in fact, that it was found im-
possible to open it again, for the part of
the time lock that should release the
catch on the inside was outside in the
hands of the locksmith.
The combination knob was turned
this way and that, and everything that
would in any way tend to loosen the
bolt was done, but to no effect. The
locksmith even went so far asto puta
plank against the door and pound away
with a sledge in the hope that some-
i thing would give way, but still the door
remained gecurely closed, and as there
was really no necessity to open the
vault the Treasury seal was placed on
the door and the things remained as
they were.
It became apparent that something
had to be done, however, and it having
been learned that “Billy’’ Ensign was
in town, he was hunted up. Ensign is
the well-known cracksman whose ability
to pick locks has more than once landed
him in prison, and the propriety of call-
ing him in was considered at some
length before it was decided to resort to
his skill.
“Billy” went into the Sub-Treasury
and at once set to work. He tinkered
with the combination knob for a while,
and then, getting down to business, put
his ear against the door and began slow-
ly to turn the knob back and forth, lis-
tening intently to the clicks of the tum-
blers as they fell into their places.
How he did it none of the bystanders
could determine, but it is certain that
bis manipulation of the knob affected
the time lock in some way, for he sud-
denly straightened up, grabbed the lev-
er that moves the steel bolts, and, giv-
ing it a quick, sharp jerk, the door
swung open before the astonished clerks.
Ensign knew nothing about the lock
when he started to open the door, and
all Treasurer Jackson could say was
«He's a wizard.”
