scenery opened the entertainments.
A southern drama of considerable merit
is introduced beside a number of pleas-
ing specialties a competent company of
actors, headed by Martin Hayden and
Anna Boyle. Fredie Huke, a gleam
of sunshine, proved a strong favorite. The
specialties held the audience until a late
hour and still the large audience cried for
more. There is a whole evening of fun
at the Grand Opera House and variety
enough to please everybody.

His Wiss Was GRATIFIED. —Short-
ly after seven o'clock on Wednesday
braith. of Howard street, departed this
lite. His demise removes from Belle-
fonte an olden resident and trom the
county Court its greatly honored Court
crier. :
Bartrim Galbraith was born on his
father’s farm, in what was then known
as Galbraith’s Gap, near Boalsburg. on
May 30, 1810. His early life was spent
some time away back in the thirties,
having taken unto himself a wife, the
late lamented Sara Resides, who died
May 7th, 1891, Le came to this place to
live. Cabinet making was his trade. He
followed it with various noted joiners
of those days and did his last werk of
that kind during the fifties, when he
was engaged as pattern maker at the
Welsh and Haupt foundry which stood
on the point below where the Geo. W.
Jackson & Co., mill is now located.
Some time afterwards Judge Linn ap-
pointed him Court crier far the courts of
Centre county and a faithful servant he
proved himself to be. A familiar sight
at court was Bartrim Galbraith and a
familiar sound was his voice as it cried
out ‘oh yes, oh yes, etc.’”’ to open or ad-
journ the session.
Lately his advanced years had begun
to tell on him and the uncertain weath-
er made him feel that his life was hang-
ing in the balance. A Democrat, bet-
ter than whom none ever lived, he man-
ifested a great desire to live to see
another Democratic president elec-
ted. When Cleveland’s victory
was heralded o'er the land old
Mr, Galbraith was happy indeed. His
wish had been granted and he seemed
ready then to die. Not hesitating to
express it. :
On last Thursday he was attacked
with a heavy cold, which finally sent
him to bed, on Saturday, his stomach
failed him and not being able to take
any nourishment his frail constitution
soon gave out. Funeral services will be
held at the house on Saturday afternoon
at 2 o'clock,
Deceased was a man familiar to near-
ly every person in Bellefonte. His sim-
ple, unassuming life, honest principles,
and firm purposes commended him as
one worthy the confidence of all. A
daughter. Miss Mary, and two sons,
Frank and William, survive him.
FATALLY CRUSHED BY AN ENGINE.
—On Thanksgiving morning Henry
Estright, of Snow Show Inlersection,
came in to celebrate the day in this
place. He had putin a pleasant time
and was about to return to his wife and
family when he met with an accident
which resulted in his death.
He intended going home on the Snow
Shoe train, which follows the 5:20 mail
up the Valley, and was at the station to
board it when it should leave, but alas,
the poor old man became confused by so
many trains coming and going that be-
fore he realized any danger he was be-
neath the wheels of an engine being
crushed beyond hope of recovery.
A passenger train is due here, from
Montandon, at 5:10 and when the mail
west is on time the Montandon train
pulls on the outside track until the oth-
er gets into the station, then it runs
down to the round house and is housed
for the night. On Thanksgiving even-
ing both trains were on time and as
soon as the mail had cleared the switch
the Montandon began pulling out. Old
Mr. Estright thinking the latter was
his train for Snow Shoe started across
the track to board it, but was overtaken
and knocked down by the incoming
train, He was rolled in front of the
engine for about 30 feet before it could
be stopped and when picked up his right
arm was crushed to a jelly, with his
head nearly as bad. The unfortunate
man was carried to the Bush House,
where R. R. Surgeon Dr. Geo. F. Har-
ris, found him. Drs. Dobl’ and Sei-
bert were called into con: _.itation, de-
ciding to amputate the arm at the
shoulder. This was done, but the drain
on the old man’s system was so great
that he died at half past four on Fri-
day morning.
Deceased was sixty-two years old and
leaves a wife and family to mourn their
loss. For a number of years he was
employed as a charcoal burner by Me-
Coy and Linn,
NEARLY DROWNED WHILE PAYING
AN ErecrioN WAGER.—Gilbert Green-
berg, chief of the Huntingdon fire de-
partment and ex president of the State
Firemen’s association undertook last
Thursday, morning to fulfill the require-
ments of an election bet by wading ac-
ross the Juniata river at its widest point
in Huntingdon. The recent rains had
raised the river considerably and Chief
Greenberg when only a little way out
from the shore was carried off his feet
and swept down the river. The river
banks were lined with people on either
side ar.d a brass band was waiting to re-
ceive the venturesome swimmer. Owing
to his heavy clothes, Chief Greenberg

A MopeL MINSTRELS. — Messrs
Sweeny, Alvido and Goetze kappily
named their Minstrel company “Model”
for indeed it is an aggregation of artists
meriting just such a name. On Wed-
nesday night they played to a full house
here and gave universal satisfaction.
With costumes new and genteel, songs
refined and catchy and dances superb
nearly every number on the program
was met with prolonged applause.
Among the especially noteworthy
features were the tencr songs “Good, by
Sweetheart, good bye’ by Phil Heck
and the baritone “My Mothers Kiss was
Sweetest of All” by Edward Purcell.
Harry Shunk’s rollicking song *‘The
Order of the Golden Key” took the
house by storm. Alvido, the juggler
and equilibrist, Mr. Beyers, in his won-
derful rope specialty, and Harry Shunk,
monologueist, were favorites. The jokes
were nearly all new and entirely free
from smut.
Perhaps the pleasantest feature of the
Sweeney, Alvido, and Goetze show was
the excellent music furnished by Pro-
fessor Goetze’s band and orchestra. It
was a treat.
Tue DooLEY CASE SETTLED AT
Last.--Ever since the death of old
Patrick Dooley, which occurred some
time ago, there has been a dispute as to
| whom his estate had devolved upon.
His son-in-law, G. W. Krumbine,
claimed the property by virtue of tracs-
fers made to him by old Patrick ; while
Mathew and Maggie, the two surviving
children, maintained that their father
was out of his mind when he deeded the
place to Krumbine.
A commission was appointed to in-
quire into the case and it was tried be-
fore a Master. Maggie Dooley coming
out victorious in her claim for the pro-
perty. Krumbine then appealed to
court on the sanity of Patrick Dooley,
when he died, with the result that the
jury after being out all night rendered a
verdict that the old man was sane, thus
declaring the transfers valid and put-
ting Krumbine in possession of the
place.
It has been a very peculiar case from
start to finish and while it now looks as
though Mr. Krumbine will succeed 1n
wresting the little heritage from the
son and daughter, yet we believe that
the end has not come yet.

An Interesting Photograph:
We have lately been shown by Emory E.
Herr, Esq., Special Agent of the Penn Mutual
Life of Philadelphia, Pa, a photograph, unique
in its subject and design, It not only reflects
a picture but tellsa story and conveys a mor-
al.
In the centre is the reproduction of a check
of the Penn Mutual for $1655.16 to the order of
Mrs. Ann Lewis, Jamison City, Pa. That is the
picture.
The story is: Back in ’'85, Mr, Benjamin
Lewis, then a prosperous lumberman of Hills-
grove, Pa., had issued him a policy for $2,000.
Twenty year endowment by the Penn Mutual.
He paid two premiume in cash, the third, 24
cash and 14 note (never paid), and again in ’88
gave note for his premium which he was una-
ble to pay.
The bright days of prosperity were over.
The dark days of adyersity had taken their
place.
Working on a log drive at Jamison City, Oc-
tober 21st, 1891, Mr. Lewis was instantly killed:
His family was left in distressed circumstan-
ces. The modest home must be sold to pay
the mortgage and with neither home nor mon-
ey the widow must face alone the dark future”
But now comes the part which reads like a
fairy tale. A paper is found, supposed to be of
no value. When issued it was a policy in the
Penn Mutual. Worth while to ask—what is it
worth ? The answer, not as in so many cases
“Nothing”, but, “worth its face value less the
amount due under it for premiums and un-
paid notes.” This then accounts for the check
of $1656.16 to Mrs. Ann Lewis,sent her Novem-
ber 4th, 1891, the same day the proofs of loss
were presented.
But what is the moral? Ah! that is so obvi.
ous, we need not mention it. “Butone word
wore” as the ministers say, “and we are done.”
One Company, the Penn Mutual Life, incorpo-
rates in its contracts the feature which kept
this policy good, thus giving so liberal a coun-
tract and living up to it in so fair a spirit that
it deserves the patronage of all insurers.
