Joyous DEemMocrATS.—Itis fitting,
that when an event of such stupendous
moment as the election was turns out
favorable to a party which has been in
the minority as long as the Democratic
party bas, that some manifestation of its
gratification be made.
Last Monday night the Democracy
of Centre county celebrated in glorious
style. Gorgeous posters announced
that a ratification and walk around
would be held in this place and the
programe was carried out to the letter.
All of the afternoon trains came in
crowded with enthusiastic Democrats
and those who did’nt have quite as
much enthusiasm as they deemed desira-
ble got more when they arrived.
Owing to to the great haste in arrang-
ing the event decorations were some-
what curtailed, nevertheless many hous-
es and business places were handsomely
illuminated, when darkness settled over
the joyous celebrants. During the early
part of the evening little delegations of
horsemen were arriving from the near-
by precincts and by the time set for the
parade arrived there was such a jam of
horses and men that the formation of
the line was made with difficulty.
Delegations of foot jubilants got mix-
up with delegations of horse, but out of
the chaos grand marshall Hammon
Sechler and his aiddes marched the grand
parade. It was a grand one to be sure,
for every man in it was boiling with
exultation over the sickly Republicans
who stood along the pavements and
watched their merriment with sad eyed
recollections.
Bands, transparencies, fire-works,
horses, men, japanese lanterns on sticks
and everything else chassed along the
streets for about an hour. A big steam
threshing engine bringing up the rear
and looking like some monster from the
infernal regions. Indeed it was no
wonder that the Republicans said:
“The country is going to the devil,”
for it looked as though he was march-
ing right in with the rest of us.
The wind up was made in the Dia-
mond, whence the parade adjourned to
the court house, where a number of
speeches were made. C. M. Bower,
was chosen chairman and after a tart
little talk gave way to T. C. Hipple,
Esq., of Lock Haven. He entertained
the people for quite awhile with breezy
campaign reflections and. gave way to
D. F. Fortney, who was succeeded by
Aaron Williams. The room was crowd-
ed, and every allusion to the discomfort-
able position of the G. O. P. was hailed
with thundrous applause.
Among the most noticeable delega-
tions were the horse-men from Benner
township, headed by Bert Henderson,
and the State College club, with the
College band, an excellent musical or-
ganization. The Aaronsburg band, in
natty uniforms, made a pleasing ap-
pearance, while the old standbys—the
Gap and Zion—held their own as usual.
All along the route, houses were illum-
ined and fire-works were put off. The
WarcaMmAN building looking gorgeous
while the parade was passing.
By mid-night the last special had
pulled out and the next day it rained.
DIED—at her home in Benner Twp, near
Fillmore, on last Friday, Nov 11th, Miss
Annie Bell, aged 15 years, 9 mos and 1 day.
It is said ‘Death loves a shining
mark” and this old adage has never
been more truly exemplified thar.in the
death of Miss Annie Bell, whose pure
and innocent young life was cut off
just as it was opening in-to womanhood;
whose sinless feet had never: trod the
paths of the wicked, whose very presence
shed joy and gladness to her associates.
She leaves to mourn their loss, a fond
and loving mother, an affectionate broth-
er and twin sister whose hearts, though
torn and bleeding at the sad separation,
fiind solace in hope, and anchor of the
soul -that the separation is for a short
time only and that sooner or later they
will meet again. The funeral services
were conducted by the Rev George
Elliott, of Bellefonte, whose earnest ap-
peal to the young to give their hearts
to Christ, in the days of their youth, were
timely and affecting, whose kind words
of consolation and admonition were as:
a balm to the wounded and broken
hearted friends. !
Her funeral took place on the Mon-
day following her decease and was at-
tecded by a large concourse of mourn-
ing friends, whose hearts beat in sym-
pathy with the bereaved family. Rest
in peace.

BuCKNELL—STATE [CoLLEGE.—The
five hundred spectators who stood in
! the mud and snow, on Beaver field, at
‘State College, last Saturday afternoon,
to witness the foot-ball game between
the Bucknell University team and that
| of the Pennsylvania State College were
| amply repaid for their discomfort by one
of the best games of foot-ball ever wit-
nessed at State College.
The wearers of the gold and blue ar-
rived by special train at1la. m. and
with their supporters made things live-
ly about the College until the game was
called, at 2 o’clock in the afternoon.
Betting was even—the little that was
done, but the College boys had bard
work coaxing any money out of the vis-
itors. They seemed disposed to hold
onto the nice pile they won at home last
fall and P. S. C. money soon went beg-
ging at odds ¢t 5 to 3.
The foot ball grounds are located on
northeastern end of the campus, where
a slight elevation affords a picturesque
prospect. The track surrounds the
grounds and the supporters of the rival
teams lined up, on either side of it to
cheer—or cuss—according as the play
went with their favorites. For an hour
before the game, the enthusiasts howled
themselves hoarse. Vieing with each oth-
erin college yells and songs written for
the occasion. The ¢“P. S.C. yo-he-hep-
rah-ra-boom rah’ would sound from hun
dreds of throats, then the Bucknell yell
would follow it, echoeing down the Nit.
tany.
Shortly after 2 the teams appeared on
the field and received rousing cheers
from their admirers. 'Twas not long
until the preliminary arrangements
were made, then the line up. The
P. S. C, men looked sleek and healthy
while their opponents presented the ap-
pearance of a team selected to awe by
size rather than to win by science and
endurance. They seemed nevertheless a
hard foe, and the P. S. 'C. men realize
that it was to be a struggle to death.
The game begsn with Bucknell in posses-
sion of the ball and P. 8. C. defending the
east goal. They started with the V for 5
yards, but lost the ballon four downs. State
College took it and in the first snap Atherton
passed it clear over Taylor's head for a loss of
5 yds. This rattled the doughty quarter back
a little and three fumbles forced State College
back to her 15 yard line where she {was forced
to kick, Brown punting to mid-field. Buck-
nell lost on four down, and the ball went to the
College again. By successively ending Tay-
lor, Fay and Haley through the line sha
worked down to Bucknell’s 5yd. line, where
Taylor attempted to advance the ball after a
fall and it was stolen from him the referee not
hearing his “down.” Bucknell puntea away
down the field; Brown returning it to the
twenty-five, yard line. Bucknell here lost
again on four downs the ball going to State
College, Then by bucking the centre Tay-
lor carried it over the line for the first touch
down. Atherton kicking goal. The half end-
ed in the middle of the field with State in
possession of the ball.
It was evident to all that Bucknell was not
“in it” as they were being beaten at their own
game of “bucking.” While the State College
boys were forced to abandon their running
tactics because of the mud, which was almost
ankle deep. Bucknell’s only hope was in
kicking to keep down the score for it; was ap-
parent that she was beaten.
State College opened the second half with a
V for 10 yds. and by successive rushes carried
the ball right down to the 5 yd line where
Bucknell made a desperate effort to stop it. The
sign was given for Haley to take the ball, but
it rolled on past him to Fay who trotted away
from the Bucknell rushers, who had all piled
on Haley, and over the line. Atherton kicked
goal. Score 12 0. Bucknell started from the
middle of the field, but lost 5 yds. with the V
‘and had to kick. Atherton returning the bal.
by a beautiful rua around the end. State lost it
on a fumble and Bucknell kicked again, Brown
returning it by a long lo w punt. Play was
getting desperate. Both teams working their
best, but Fisher and Dowler were here used
and ran with the ball plowing holes in the
Bucknell rush. McCaskey was substituted
for Fay and he went to Quarter, displacing
Atherton. Rush after rush carried the ball
down to Bucknell’s 20 yd line whence Brown
beautifully guarded by McCaskey and Taylor
carried it over for the third touchdown. Ath
erton kicked goal.
Only afew minutes remained to play and in
the first scrimmage Wolfe and Moirow came
together with such force that the former had
to be carried off the field. The game being
¢ lled, with four minutes to play.
The visitors played a fair and gentlemanly
game, but were clearly out classed, while the
home team played with a system and earnest
ness which surprised even their most san-
guine admirers. There was not a disturbance
of any kind to mar the interest of the game
and it was a clear cut foot ball contest from
start to finish.

CoLOoNEL COBURN AS A PROPHET.—.
One day last September, during the
Granger’s picnic, Col. James Coburn
swelled himself away up and looking
exceeding wise made the following
prophecy : “Cleveland will not carry
a single northern State ****¥%% He will
not carry Virginia.” The colonel
knows better now and the gentlemen
who stood about him at that time are
wondering why he did'nt know better |
then.
right after all. Cleveland did'nt carry
a single northern State for they were all
wedded to Democracy before he got
them.
