AN AGED RESIDENT GONE.—The
moved from Bellefonte another of the
land marks whose name and face was
familiar with the early days of its his-
tory. Well on toward the eighty-
first mile stone in his journey of life
the christian old man laid down his
cross for the reward which he will sure-
ly reap in other worlds.
The later years of his life. have been
spent in rest from the toil of his vigorous
manhood. Byitrade he was anax mak-
er and worked for many years atthe
works of the late Harvey Mann near
town. _ Though past 80 years of age he
was strong and active until about last
June when dropsy began to develop.
From that time until his death he was a
constant sufferer with it. The manner
in which he bore his pain being the
strongest evidence of his patient, chris-
tian fortitude.
He was born near State College, on
Christmas day, 1812, being the fourth
child of Francis and Elizabeth Steele,
and spent his early life in that vicinity.
Later he married Christena Bottorf and
| then moved to the vicinity of Axe
Mann and during all the days in which
he was capable of hard work he was a
trusted employee of the ax works.
Twelve years of his later days having
been spent in the employ of thepublish-
er of this paper no further evidence of
his integrity and cerefulness is needed
ment gave. For years he had been a
consistent member of the Methodist
church and in the steadfast zeal of his
faith he was happy in his last moments.
NEARLY A FATAL ACCIDENT.—AS
the Lock Haven freight train was pull-
ing out of this place, at noon on Wed-
nesday, pedestrians near the High street
crossing were horrified to see a man,
who was attempting to board it, miss
the car stirrup and swing under the
wheels. They turned their heads so
that they would not witness the har-
rowing scene which seemed inevitable,
but®y some miraculous means the fel-
low wriggled out, so that only his left
foot was caught under the wheels.
‘Ben Gordon, who was standing near,
ran and pulled him away before the
foot was cut clear off. The unfortu-
nate fellow was carried into the crossing
watchman’s house, where Dr. Harris
dressed his wounds. It was found that
three toes on the left fcot were badly
mashed, but amputation was not deem-
ed necessary,
His name is William Hesler and until
Tuesday evening he had been working
for the Williamsport Kestone artificial
stone pavement Co., at State College.
He came in on the Bellefonte Central R.
R. Wednesday morning and loafed
about the hotels until he went to board
the freight for his home at Lock Haven
It is not know whether the man was
intoxicated or not, though ho had been
drinking some.
This almost miraculous escape, from
an awful death, should be a warning to
the crowds of boys who gather along
the rail-road, at this place, and make a
habit of jumping on moving trains.
Only two weeks since we noted an acci-
dent which happened to a little boy at
Sandy Ridge and almost every day we
read of some one losing their lives by
such foolishness.
Luck IN ALLITERATION.—Notwith-
standing the euphonic beauty of alliter
ations in the names of persons, there is
said to be a vast amount of good luck
in store for those who have either been
christened or named themselves so that
the first and last name begins with the
same letter. Strange to say nearly every
instance, which we can think of, in
which alliterations occur there has been
marked success in the various pursuits
of the persons. Though we are suppos-
ed not to be a superstitious class of peo-
ple yet who can help feeling a little
queer when the following list of success-
ful artists is read.
Go back to Colly Cibber and follow
up with Joseph Jefferson and Roland
Reed, Lotta rejoices that her name is
Charlotte Crabtree, and backs up the
charm with the name of Charlotte
Crampton. Albert Aron says ‘I got it,
80 vos Marcus Mayer and Ben Butler
vot you got to say agin us for lucky.”
Marquerite Mather says ‘me too,” and
Marion Manola who was so impressed
with the idea that she added Mason to
the combination. John Russell on be-
ing interviewed offered for example
Russell & Rosenquest, Harrigan &
Hart, Booth & Barret. Lilly Langtry
admits that her successful career is all
luck and due to the combination. Lil-
lian Lewis assigns the same reason to
her wonderful success and last comes
that long dead bandit who was acknow-
ledged king of terror in his day, Jesse
James.

——Robert Beck, a La Jose, Clear-
field county, liveryman,’has been miss-
ing since last Friday. On that day he
started on a long drive, over an unfre-
quented road, and as it was known that
he had considerable money with him
foul play is suspected.

ped in for a few moments pleasant chat,
on Wednesday morning. He is spend-
ing a short vacation with friends at
Unionville. Business is booming up at
the new coal town, but politics are
quiet according to his report.
—— Falling off of a freight train, on
which he was riding, George Levis, of
Morrisdale, had his foot badly mangled
and was otherwise injured. The acci-
dent occurred on the outskirts of Phil-
ipsburg. He was taken to the cottage
hospital where he died Tuesday morn-
ing. He was a miner:
—— While digging near a stump in
one of his fields, some time ago, Jno.
C. Peters, a Dix Run farmer, unearthed
nine small eggs which resembled those
of a pigeon, excepting that they were
all attached to each other. Upon lay-
ing them near a stove, in his house, he
was startled when nine copperhead
snakes,each about a foot in length, came
crawling out.
——Wm McCorkle, the 17 year old
son of the late Rob’t MzCorkle, of Clear-
field, accidentally shot himself on last
Saturday afternoon. He was jhome-
ward bound from a hunting trip and
while raising his rifle to lift it into a
buggy, it was discharged, the load ea-
tering his neck, just under the chin, and
passing out at the back of his neck.
The boy is lying in a precarious condi-
tion with no hopes for his recovery.

Maggie Eberheart, T. G. Cruse, Willie

ed to the success of the afternoon.
——At 12 o'clock last Sunday night
the death of Miss Mary Gerrity occurred
at her late home on east Lamb street.
Deceased was just twenty-five years of
age and leaves a sister, Annie, and two
brothers, Walter and Patrick, to mourn
the loss of an affectionate sister. It
seems sad that one so young and inno-
cent should have been taken, but “God’s
ways are not our ways” and the
knowledge that he does all things for
the best should be a solace for the be-
reaved sister and brothers. Quick con-
sumption was the cause of her demise,
she having been ill, but a short time,
Funeral services were held in the Catho-
lic church, on Wednesday morning, at
10 o’clock.
——The Centre social club of this
place is now a thing of the past. For
nearly two years the organization
proved a success, and who can tell but
that it did a world of good also, but on
Tuesday night its members met for the
last time in their rooms in the Exchange
building and, after a careful considera-
tion of the standing of the club, dis-
banded. During 1ts existence it has
been conducted in a highly moral way.
Its members have acquitted themselves
creditably and notwithstanding the
senseless prating of an uptown contem-
porary, when the club was incepted, has
disbanded in an honorable manner. All
of the debts have been paid. The club
went quietly out of existence because

away that continuance was an impossi-
bility.

Journal,
negotiating them
Some minor business came up, in
which several nuisances were reported.
The police officers, street commissioners
and operators at the water works wera
given a shaking up and the changing of
some lights was recommended. After
this business the Finance committee was
instructed to make a report at the next
meeting as to the best plan of negotiat-
ing the new loan.
Of course it is hard for us to see things
just as the councilmen, who have all
the figures before them do, but if a loan
of $100,000 could be ‘secured; at 8} per
cent.—not at all an impossibilty—and if
the taxes are left levied atthe present
rate there would be a direct saving of
$3,500 per annum. Af this rate, if the
new bonds are issued to run for 20 years,
nearly all of the principal could be paid
in that timeand leave the borough
practically free of debt, for the water
works would then prove assets worth a
far greater amount than the remaining
indebtedness would aggregate.

tion of “Frou-Frou”’, at the opera house,
on Wednesday night,

springs and mountain streams, which
have never been known to fail, are dry

simply a continuation of shallow pools
into which the trout are crowed and dy-

The low water along the Bald Eagle
valley is causing Typhoid fever to be-

it will become an awful scourge unless

which our wonderful spring pours forth.

schools an opportunity to exhibit a

appointed to test the work of the
scholars and see that it merits a place at
the great exposition. What a glorious
thing it would be for some of the
scholars of the Bellefonte schools to send
in specimens for they could not fail to
get representation.

WiNnpow DREssiNg.—A trade at
which young men and women are now
making large salaries is that of window
dressing and we can think of no more
profitable investment for the owner of a
large store than the money he spends to
keep hisshow windows bright and attrac-
tive. It is a practical impossibility? for
merchants in a town, the size “of Belle-
fonte, to employ a person who does noth-
ing else than dress windows. In the
first place because having, as a rule, on-
ly one front they would not have fwork
for him near all of the time and in the
second because ;the patronage of our
stores does not warrant suck an invest-
ment,
Our store-keepers could, however, de-
tail one of their clerks to look atter the
windows and in time the practice would
make him a fairly tasteful decorator.
If he bad any kind of an &ye 2for the
beautiful, and a creative imagination, his
work in the show windows would repay
his employer many times over.
There is nothing that catches your
eye quite as quickly asa nicely dressed
store window and it is the greatest ad
vertisement a merchant can make,
There are two stores in town in front of
which you can nearly always see a few
people standing looking inj the win-
dows. And itcan be ascribed to no
other cause than that they are continual-
ly being redressed and filled jwith late
goods. Stores in which] the windows
are carefully looked after are invariably
the stores in which you want to buy.
A merchant who has not the energy
to display his wares in an artistic man-
ner is not the one who caters to the best
trade. Handsome displays of this sort
not only give a town a metropolitan ap-
pearance, but show the painstaking in-
terest which the merchant, who should
get your patronage, takes in trying te
merit it.
A NEw HARDWARE Firm.—Last
Saturday morning Mr. ‘Daniel Irvin
and his son, Edward, of Julian, arrived
in town to take charge of the McFar-
lane hardware store on east High street,
A few days before they had consum-
mated the deal, by which they bezame
sole owners of the store, but did not
take charge until Saturday.
The McFarlane hardware is one of
of Bellefonte’s oldest business houses.
It having been operated under the firm
names of Wilson & McFarlane, Robert
McFarlane & Co, and J. Kyle McFar-
lane & Co. When Col. Robert McFar-
lane died, some time ago, his administra-
tors took the store and operated it until
the sale was made. It isthe largest
room used for store purposes in town,
and by reason of its location and recent
building, perhaps the most convenient.
H. B. Pontius, who has been a clerk
in the place for years will be retained,
so that old customers will find a famil-
iar face to greet them and, new ones, a
man who thorcughly understands the
hardware business,
The new proprietors have long carried
on a mercantile business at Julian,
where they enjoyed the confidence of
all who had dealings with them and we
feel confident that the square and fair
business which brought them success
there will merit them a profitable trade
in this new departure.

Loox Our For THE SWINDLERS.—
A few months ago agents, both male
and female, canvassed Huntingdon and
adjoining counties securing orders for
earthen pots. The agents claimed that
the pots would stand the severest heat
test, and would not break unless they
were left drop on the floor or ground.
The agents sold thousands of them in
this section, and after they had been
duped. The pots would not stand an
ordinary heat.
In Huntingdon the pots sold for 55
cents, but through the rural districts the
price was less, some of them being sold
for 25 cents. There is no trade mark
on the ware, and therefore people are at
aloss to know who handles them or
where they are made. The whole
thing is a fraud, and we are only too
sorry that we can’t obtain the names of
the swindlers so as to enable us to give
a more thorough ventilation.— Hunt.
