| LEIB.—Died on the morning of the 7th inst.
David M. Lieb aged 36 years and 6, months.
Nobody who has known Mr. Lieb well
can conceive the thought that he has
| left us forever without a peculiarly deso-
— latesense of personal and irreparable
bereavement. There was in his way
of thinking in his aims and aspirations,
| in his setivity, in his intercourse with
others, in his whole being so rare an
element and influence of virtue that it
appears hopeless to fill the void which
his death has made in this community.”
The schools, his church, the temper-
ance cause in fact every educational and
reform movement have lost a worker,
who seemed by his well cultivated in-
tellect, his excellent judgment, his gen-
tle temper and his quiet authority, fitted
by nature for leadership. Although as
aman Mr, Lieb was independent and
aggressive in temperment, he was
capable of great tenderness in his rela
tionship with men, for he possessed in
an eminent degrée the ‘‘greatest of all
things’’—Charity for and sympathy with
all that were needy or distressed. He
shielded his own and the oppressed of
other circles from care and trouble and
as he was the ideal christian so was he
the ideal man for his true politeness
and pleasant manner was the out
growth of a kindly pure heart. ‘No
coarse utterance crossed his lips be-
cause no coarse thought crossed his soul”
and no great moral truth tbat he ever
tried to impress upon his day or Sabbath
school scholars could be half as effective
as his own active, unselfish and pure
life has been.
Unceasingly he labored through his
short lite for all that was noble and
elevating, and although a man of much
ability he asked for himself only the op-
portunity to do good, and if his great-
ness is to be measured by what he ac-
complished for our town both as an
educator and a man; the inspiration
of his example will live for generations
and his name will remain honored as
one of our noblest citizens.
A year ago last June, Mr. Lieb’s
friends realized that he was far from
well and that his untiring energy was
telling on his naturally strong constitu-
tion. Work was his recreation, and rest
for him at that time seemed out
of the question. After a time he
tried Atlantic City but he came
home unable to assume his duties
ot City Superintendent of our
schools, a position that he held for
fourteen years. The school board would
not accept his resignation but gave
him a year’s leave of absence and last
month when was it decided that he was
still unable to work on account of his
throat and lungs, insisted on extending
higleave another year ; but this Mr. Lieb
would, not have although he would not
acknowledge that he was dangerously
ill, and was cheerful and confident of
his recovery until the day he died. The
High School and the Brick Building,
which should be called after him, are so
clearly the outcome of his perseverance
and success that they will ever be a
monument to him as a teacher.
David Mitchell Lieb was the son of
John D. and Margery Mitchell Lieb.
Always a close student he was well pre-
pared for college when he entered
Princeton in 1874, and on graduating
in '78 he accepted the Principalship of
the Bellefonte schools with which he has
been connected ever since. Unmarried
he lived in the old homestead with his
sister Katherine, who with two brothers
Dr. Andrew, of Bethlehem, and Mitch-
ell, of Bellefonte, watched with anxiety
and helplessness his long and painful ill-
ness. Monday morning Rev. Mr.
Houck, Dr. Laurie, and Rev. D. M.
‘Wolf officiated at the funeral services
in the Methodist church, in which he
was treasurer of the Board of Trustees,
a Steward, a class leader and a Bible
teacher of thirty-five young men. The
floral tributes were possibly the most
beautiful that have ever been brought to
Bellefonte, and were the offerings of the
Reserve Corps, his Sunday school class,
the High school, the teachers and schol-
ars of the other schools and the Ep-
worth League.
WiLris NerF DEAD.—On last Sun-
day night Willis Neff, the fourth son of
Jos. L. Neff, of Roland, died at John-
sonburg, Elk Co., where he had been
employed for some time. Deceased was
ill but a short time with Typhoid fever
and his recovery was thought possible,
but despite all the efforts of kind hands
he died. He was 40 years of age
and was engaged to be married to a
young lady in Johnsonburg. Funeral
services were held at the home of his
parents on Wednesday.
Howarp MILLINERY OPENING.—
Mrs. D. P. McKinney, the Howard
milliner, will have her opening of fall
and winter goods to-morrow, Saturday
Oct. 15th. Her stock includes the lat-
est novelties in hats and bonnets as well
as a carefully selected line of fancy
goods. The ladies of Howard and com-
munity will do well to attend her open-
ng, for then the choice of her fine line
can be secured.
——TLock Haven citizens and the fire
insurance men,of that place,bave offered
a reward of $1000 for the arrest of the
fire bugs who have caused so much
trouble down there.

——Our friend Hon. Joseph W. Mer-
ry, of Beech Creek, is devoting his time
to building railroads, He has a con-
tract to grade a section of the extension
between DuBois and Clearfield.;
— Next Wednesday night you will
have an opportunity of witnessing one
of Gilbert’s master pieces. Madaline
Merli, the brilliant young Italian ac-
tress, will appear in “Frou-KFrou.”
——An Italian thief stole a horse,
buggy and harness from a Mr. Hoover,
at Unionville, on last Saturday. Later
he was seen in Tyrone with his plunder,
but has not been captured as yet. $20
reward is offered.
——Lock Haven people are drinking
canal water. The water committee of
that place would do well by connecting
their mains with the Globe bottling
works instead of giving the people the
slimy filth of that stagnant canal.
——The Bellefonte society of Chris-
tian Endeavor was represented at the
Altoona Convention by Miss Sadie Bay-
ard, Henry Brown, Charles Bosner,
Harris Heylman, and Samuel Taylor.
Several other members of the society
were in attendance.
— An Italian laborer, who had
charge of the blasting on the George S.
Good section of the Clearfield extension
looked into a hole, on last Friday, to
see what was the matter with a blast
which he thought had not gone off soon
enough. It went later. He went with
it.
——Little Frank Harbaugh, the
bright son of Mr. George Harbaugh
who lives on West Curtin street, died
from diphtheria at noon on Saturday.
Owing to the malignant type of the dis-
ease he was buried at sun down. His
was the last case of that dread disease in
town.
——An immense flag now floats to
the breeze in front of the young mens
Democratic club rooms, on Allegheny
street. Itis a fitting emblem of the
party which stands to defend it against
the ignominy of a Force bill. The stars
and stripes are symbolieal of freedom
and above all things in elections.
——Corney Garman and his bride
arrived on the late train Saturday night
and were driven directly to the Garman
House where a few intimate friends were
in waiting to welcome them, Mrs. Gar-
man was, before her marriage, Miss
Sophia Schoff, of New York, a very
pretty girl who has many friends in our
town.
——Philipsburg i3 so greatly excited
over an electric street rail-way, which
outside capitalists say they are going to
build,that the good citizens of that town
met on Friday night to decide what col-
or the cars should be painted and
whether, in case ot crowds, it will be
the men or the women who will have to
hold onto the straps.
—— Mr. George Potter and family, of
Fort Wayne, Indiana, have been spend-
ing the week with Mr. Potter's brother,
James, on Spring street. They visited
the College on Monday, Of course
none of thestudents knew George, but
we’ll bet those old trees winked know-
ingly at each other as he walked 'neath
their spreading branches.
——A wreck at Flemington bridge,
on the B. E. V., on Friday night, com-
pletely demolished eleven cars loaded
with coal and lumber. A broken axle
is supposed to have caused the train’s
leaving the track and falling over a
twenty foot embankment, Two tramps
who were supposed to have been under
the wreckage turned up in a sadly de-
moralized though unhurt condition.
——James Solt, the crippled man
who supports his large family by sprink-
ling our streets in the summer and sell-
ing coal-oil in the winter, was down
town, on Tuesday, for the first time in
fourteen weeks. He received very ser-
ious injuries to his limb some time ago
by falling on one of our streets. The
WATCHMAN is glad to see him about
again for he has always been an indus-
trious citizen.
~——Joseph Hirst,an aged veteran and
travelling Menonite preacher, was
found lying in a fence corner near the
home of George Schaffer, near Aarons-
burg, on last Friday. Mrs. Shaffer
would not admit him to the house, fear-
ing diphtheria, but her husband made
him a bed in the barn where he died a
fow hours later. He had considerable
money on his person and bank books
showing a credit of nearly a thousand
. BONE "MoORE UNFORTUNATE’. —The
sharp report of a pistol rang out on
the early Saturday morning air, and the
people who were waiting about the pas-
senger ' station, in this place, for the
arrival of the early trains were too much
startled to realize that a human life was
ebbing away before their eyes.
son of David Hoover, who lives on the
Buffalo Run road about mid-way be-
tween this place and Roopsburg, left his
home on last Saturday morning about
five o,clock, with the intention of going
to Wall station , a point on this side of
Pittsburg, where, until last July, he
been employed in a lumber yard. At
that time he was forced to come home
because of having been hurt by a falling
lumber pile. Ever since that he has
been trying to regain his kealth. When
his loving old mother bade him “God
speed,” and watched her boy disappear
in the breaking dawn of that fateful
day, little did she dream that in less
than an hour and a half that same child
would be returned to her, cold in the em-
brace of death.
Upon reaching the passenger station
he purchased a ticket for Tyrone: then,
going out on the platform, walked down
to the North end of the station where
night watchman, Wm. Reasner, was
standing. He and William had always
been friends and during their conversa-
tion Hoover asked fora chew of tobacco.
Everyone who has been about the Belle-
fonte station will remember that watch-
man Reasner has but one arm—the re-
sult of a railroad accident--so he turned
the pocket, in which he kept his tobacco,
toward his friend and bade him take it
out for himself. In the same pocket
‘William carried his revolver and at the
sight of it Hoover said : “You still carry
the same pop, don’t you Bill ?”’and took
the pistol out— this remark was occa-
sioned doubtless because ‘“Alec’’ had of-
ten cleaned the weapon--Reasner did
rot think anything of his friend’s taking
it, and looked down the platform at
something that just then claimed his at-
tention. When he turned again Hoover
had the weapon pointed at his right
temple and, before he (Reasner) could
interfere, fired. The poor fellow fell
in his tracks and never moved a muscle
after the fatal shot. The ball had taken
an upward course and caused instant
death. In falling he struck against the
end of the building, and in that half
sitting posture he remained until under-
taker Harris removed the body to his
father’s home. Some kindly hand had
thrown a newspaper over the blackened,
distorted face, but for nearly two hours
the body lay there without having been
touched.
~ When the undertaker turned it over
the pistol dropped from the hand of the
dead man.
He was just about 30 years of age,
unmarried and, until hewas hurt, a
mab of genial disposition, inclined to be
jovial. Since the accident at Wall
Station, in which a large lumber pile
fell on his head and breast, he has acted
slightly peculiar and itis thought that
in a moment of temporary insanity—
caused by despondency--he committed
the rash deed.
In the absence of Dr. Buckingham,
county coroner, ‘Squire S. H. Foster
held an inquest over the remains.
Funeral serviceg were held on Monday
afternoon.
A PLEA Por THE FIREMEN.—It now
becomes our pleasure to call the atten-
tion of the citizens of Bellefonte to the
fact that another payment is due on the
Logan Steamer Co’s, engine and that
only through your liberality can it be
made. The company, as you well know
is altogether a volunteer organization
and as such needs the support of every
one who can afford to give a dollar to-
ward the liquidation of its debt. All of
the payments, thus far, have been met
and it is to be hoped that the one to fall
due in a few days will only have to be
mentioned to be paid. The company
cleared a neat sum at its annual picnic
last summer, but the amount was in-
sufficient and it is the intenfion to raise
the balance by popular subscription.
Our citizens should remember that
our firemen do not recieve a penny, in
vemuneration, for their work. Their
pleasure being the saving of the proper-
ty of others. And in remembering this
they will not fail in understanding that
the payment on the steamer is their gain.
Show the firemen that you appreciate
their work by making your subscription
voluntarily. Do not wait to be asked,
but send your check for whatever you
think you can give.
PoLITICAL MEETINGS.— Chairman
Schaeffer has arranged to hold political
meetings at Linden Hall, on Monday
night, Oct. 17th; at Potter's Mills, on
Tuesday night, Oct. 18th, and at Boals-
burg, on Wednesday night, Oct. 19th.
Some able exponents of Democracy will
be procured for the meetings. Let there
be a good turn out at these meetings.

out and threw clubs at it, and finally
Tyson got brave and went into the

he was being imposed on.”
