A Max WirE LoNg WHISKERS.—
In the Sunday issue of Taggart’s Phila-
delphia Times we noticed the following
comment on the appearance and ac-
complishments of a man who is very
well known in Bellefonte.
“Major Wilham H. Hastings, a
brother of General Hastings, of Johns-
town flood fame, is a polished, genial
gentleman, with great abilities as an en-
tertainer and a born admirer of Mayor
Stuart and the Beitlers—-in fact where-
ever they are seen the Major is not far
away. Among the other good things
that the Major has cultivated is along
brown beard—probably the most exten-
sive in this part ot the world. Last
summer, while the Major was driving
along the Boulevard of Paris, his atten-
tion was caught by a couple of French
ladies who were admiring him. Ina
spirit of fun he took his long beard in
his hand, and raising it, completely cov-
ered his face and head with it, to the
dismay of the French ladies, who shout-
ed, “Mon Dien!” and ran away as fast
as their pretty ‘‘elegees” would carry
them. The Major isalmost as well
known in Paris as in Philadelphia.
Major Hastings is quite a linguist and
speaks several languages, which he
brings to good use about the City Hall
occasionally.”
Frozex STrEAMs,-—The Renovo
News is authority for the statement that
the ice on the Susquehanna at Clearfield
1s frozen to the bottom and is thirty-six
inches thick. At Driftwood the ice on
the Sinnemahoning creek is twenty-two
inches thick and the average thickness
of the ice on all the creeks is twenty
inches thick, the heaviest 1ce that has
been frozen for many years.
The fact that the ice on the river and
its tributaries above Lock Haven is so
thick creates grave apprehensions that
there will likely be great damage done
by the break-up should it occur before
the spring weather softens the ice, The
streams are all below low water mark
and a heavy rain that would causa rise
enough to flost the ice would certainly
result in ice gorges and jams that would
destroy much property on low lands.
All the small streams in this county
‘are frozen solid to the bottom and if
there should come & warm rain there is
no telling what might follew. © The nat-
{ ural channels being all filled with ice
' the water would pour out over adjvin-
ling lends and cause great destruction,

CouNTY CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORERS IN
CoNVENTION.—The first annual conven-
tion of the Christian Endeavor societies,
of Centre county, was held in the Pres-
byterian chapel, in this place, yesterday,
Thursday, February 2nd. The disagree-
able weather was never thought of by the
arduous young workers of the great
white ribboned army that has been so
recently mustered from every corner of
our land, and the three sessions were car-
ried on with an earnestness which au-
gured naught but success in their battle
for the right.
Delegates were present from Gates-
burg, Rock Spring, Oak Hall, Lemont,
State College, Howard, Milesburg
Martha Furnace, Juhan Furnace, Un-
iooville and from the different societies
in Bellefonte.
The convention was called to order
promptly at eleven o'clock and the first
thing done, after Bowman Weaver, of
Clearfield, had conducted devotional
exercises, was the formation of a county
Union and the election of officers as
follows : President John Walker,
Bellefonte; Secretary, Dr. C. B.
Church, of Milesburg ; Treasurer, Lau-
ra M. Wright, Milesburg. An Execu-
tive Committes made up ot the Presi-
dents of the different societies of the coun-
ty was then chosen and the werk ot the
morning session completed.
With the opening of the afternoon
ses:ion the regular program was taken
up as follows; Address of Welcome,
Rev. Wm. Laurie, Bellefonte; Reply,
Prof. Jas. Heaney, State College ; Our
Motto, “For Ckrist,”” Miss M. E. Short-
lidge, Bellefonte; Look-Out Commit-
tee—Free Parliament, Jno. Foster,
County Secretary, State College ; Pray-
er-meeting Committee— Free Parlia-
ment, Rev. Samuel Honesty, A.M. E.
Bellefonte ; Talk on Temperance Work,
Rev. Blackburn, Bellefonte. The after-
noon meeting concluded with reports
from the Societies, all of which were
exceedingly flattering.
The evening began with a service of
song and = after the young people had
showed their proficiency in music Rev.
G. R. Stewart, of Harrisburg, delivered
an address. The general subject of
“Our C. E. Prayer Meetings” was tak-
en up next and handled in sections in
this order : “How prepare ourself for it,”
Prof. G. C. Butz, Ex-County Sec. Sate
College; “How secure a large attend-
ance,” Miss Hensyl, Howard ; “How
lead it effectively,” J. M. Laurie, Belle-
fonte ; “How use music to the best ad-
vantage,” Miss Thompson, Lemont;
“How secure graduates fron: verse read-
er’s class’’ Miss Hunter, Bellefonte. The
concluding exercise was a Consecration
meeting under the direction of J. Elliott
Harvey, Y. M. C. A. Secretary.
The convention was most gratifying
in its outcome and the young christians
lock upon this their first conven-
tion as the initial step toward a
grander and more co-operative work
in the broad field which the county af-
fords fur Christianity.
GLorious Work FOR GoOD.—A re-
sultant of the revival, that has been go-
ing on in the Methodist Church, under
the eloquent and soul-stirring leadership
ot Rev. W. A. Houck, was forcibly evi-
denced in the large number of people
who juined the church on probation last
Sunday morning. ' The majority were
young women and men whose regular
and enthusiastic attendance during the
past six weeks speak eloquently for the
rsuccessful furtherance of the work. No-
thing is pleasanter to see than a bevy of
fair girls and stalwart boys in their
youth and strength preparing for the |
good work which is so much needed ‘in
this present frivolous tending day.
The revival meeting in the United
Brethren church is still being success-
fully forwarded by the indefatigable la-
bor of Rev. Blackburn.
An unprecedented revival is stirring
the city of Omaha, Nebraska, to its very
foundations, Meetings were held in
the Exposition building and over three
thousand persons have been converted ;
one thousand joining the Methodist
church and two thousand connecting |
themselves with other churches.
Last Wednesday all the leading. man-
ufactories and business places in Read-
ing, Pa., were closed for the day, the
entire city being given over to prayer-
ful attendance of the Divine services
held in every church.
May this good work go on untilevery
soul shall appreciate these %eautiful
lines of Tennyson :
Follow you the Star that lights a desert path-
way,
¥ Yours and mine.
Forward, till you see the highest human na-
ture is divine. )
Follow Light, and do the right—for man can
half control his doom—
Till you find the deathless Angel seated in
the vacant tomb.

~—An exchange tells of the follow-
ing invention of a Somerset genius; A
man living in Somerset has invented a
machine which he calls a “‘gitu-jango”
and with which he claims he can fly at
a forty-mile an-hour speed. The thing
is built upon four aluminium wheels,
and in front is a heavy fly wheel. Tio
fly wheel is started by a pedal, and that
gets the other wheels in ‘motion, which
then skim over the ground like an ex:
press train... A public exhibition will
be given there by the inventor. ’
———The Lewistown Democrat ‘‘Man
About Town” writes :—L. sometimes
hear a man gpoken ofin this way . «Of
course he spends all his money for rum
but he is a generous, open-hearted fel-
low and he harms no one but himself.”
I would rather look into that fellow’s
home and see if there is a hollow eyed
and toiling wife and mother there, and
hungry and half-clean little ones, before
I would pronounce any such judgemeant.
i I am pot a temperance bigot, or fanatic,
but I have little sympathy to waste on a
man who neglects his life companion
and worse still, the innocent little tnes
for whose existence heis responsible,
{ that his own depraved tasies way be
| gratified and that he may pas{ as a good
“fellow among his companions. '* At least’
I. think the terms “generosity” and
‘hig: hearted’ are grossly 'misinier) ret
ed when they arc thus applied.

THERE WAS MoNEY IN Ir.-—While
cleaning a chicken the other day, Mrs.
Ranseur a Philipsburg woman was cut-
ting into its gizzard. The knife had
not gone very deep when it struck some-
thing hard. An investigation disclosed,
the fact that a gold dollar was nicely
imbedded in the very heart of the organ.
It is altogether probable that if the good
woman had not killed the fowl just
when she did it might have been laying
golden eagles by this time.
