adjourned convention of the conferees
from the various wards in town met in
the Register’s office, on Monday evening,
and selected a borough ticket for the
Democracy to support. 1t is made up
cry for reform in many of the municipal
nomination of men, whose names carry
with them the assurance of a fulfillment
of the people's wishes. Itis usually a
very hard task for the Democracy to
place a strictly first-class ticket in the
field, Bellefonte being recognized as a
Republican borough until within the
past few years our ticket has posed as a
simple necessity. The candidates al-
lowing their names to be used, with no
hope of success, but for the mere pur-
pose of filling up.
Things have changed very materially
however, a Republican majority, rang-
ing all the way from one hundred to two
hundred and fifty votes, has dwindied to
thirty or forty and the repeated election
of a Democratic burgess, tax collectors
and poor overseers, with the consequent
improvement on the conduction of those
offices has led to the belief that a ‘good
Democrat now has almost equal chances
of election with his Republican oppo-
nent. ‘With this conviction firm in the
mind of the Democracy it has nominat-
ed only such men as will merit the sup-
port of every voter in the town.
Republican domination has prevailed
so long in our borough that it is time to
try a change. Things can certainly get
no worse than they are now and if past
experience is to be the criterion the
election of the full Democratic ticket
means a much needed reform.
J. C. Meyer is the candidate for Bur-
gess; J. Mitchell Cunningham, for
Assistant Burgess; A. C. Mingle, for
Treasurer; Hugh Taylor, for Tax Col.
lector; James Alexander, for Auditor
| and Harry Sanders, for High Constable.
Every one of whom are men who will
make careful officials and are pledged to
you to make the changes whieh you de-
mand in the offices to which they aspire.
The borough council has never been
Démocratic. Make it such this Spring
and note the result. Think of what
John Keichline did as Tax Collector
and as a Poor Overseer and fill these of-
fices again with Democrats.
In the North ward Hammond Sech-
ler, one of our town’s foremost citizens
and reputable merchants is a candidate
for council. He is obligated to no indi-
vidual or concern and should be elected.
From the West ward the Democrats
will try to send Dr. M. A. Kirk to
council. He is another man who will
have no interests whatever to serve
other than the people’s He is making
a success of his own business and will do
the same for the town. Geo. T. Bush
is the candidate from the South ward.
He represents the largast estate 1n town
and ot necessity will work for the in-
terests of the taxpayers because their in-
terests are his also.
Every candidate on the Democratic
ticket, whether for ward or borough
office, is a good man and as such should
have your support. The ¢andidates are
as follows:

GEORGE CLEMIT BECKWITH.— Was
born February 6th 1854, in Taylor
township, where be lived as a peaceable
and industrious citizen, until the time
of his death, which occurred Feb. 2, 1893,
In his death his family has lost a devot-
ed husband anda kind father. His
friends have lost a good neighbor and a
loyal citizen. He leaves a wife and six

days old. How uncertain life is! Man
at best hath but a short time to live in
this world. “He cometh forth like a
flower and is cut down ; he fleeth also as
a shadow, and continueth not.”’” The
bereaved family have the sympathy of
the entire community in this the time
of their sore affliction.

Musser, the Milesburg insurance agent,
who was convicted of libel in our courts
last week, was taken before Juige Furst

The libel was an article which Mus-
ser wrote for the Bellefonte Republican
charging L. C. Bullock with firing his
own carriage works, in Milesburg, to
get the insurance. Editor Tuten was
dragged into the case at first, but nolle
prosse proceedings released him,

tried to jump, but their feet being tang-
led in the robes they were thrown vio-
lently on the icy road. Jim was con-
siderably bruised up, but his father, who
held on to the team, escaped unhurt.
——1It would probably be difficult to
tell why Clearfield county was named
“Clearfield.” When it was organized,
in 1804, out of parts of Lyccming and
Northumberland counties, it was an al-
most unbroken forest, covered with one
of the noblest stretches of pine woods to
be found in the State. The cleared
fields init were few and far between.
They were as scarce as the rooks at Mr.
Copperfield’s rookery. But in eighty-
nine years the county has succeeded in
adapting itself to its name, The mag-
nificent pine trees have nearly all been
cut down. Late Clearfield papers tell
of four rafts of pine, sume of the sticks
80 to 90 feet long, that are ready to be
sent down the river as something ex-
traordinary. The stury raftsmen who
used to find u spring job in piloting fine
spars down the river to serve us masts
for Baltimore clippers will soon find
their occupation gone.—Phila. Record.
——On last Saturday morning John
Dawson, who will be remembered by
any one who has lived in Bellefonte with
in the last thirty years, died at his home
in Mill Hall, and was brought to Belle-
fonte on Monday morning for burial.
He had not been well for some time but
bis death was not apprehended until
dropsy developed, a few weeks ago.
Mr. Dawson was 54 years old and had
lived all his life in this community with
the exception of the short time he had
been in Mill Hall, where he was success-
fully carrying on a bakery. He was a
kind, jovial man and for three years had
been a consistent member of the Metho-
dist church, in which the funeral ser-
vices were held on Monday morning, on
the arrival of the ten-twenty train. Not-
withstanding the pouring rain the Lo-
gan Fire Company of which he was an
old and active member, and a large num-
ber of people followed the remains from
the church to the cemetery. His wife,
who was Miss Sallie Eckly, a daughter
two sons, and four brothers survive him.
i The afternoon train
i fonte Central road brought a gay crowd
of State College students to town yester-
’96 BANQUETED AT THE BusH Housk,
over the Belle-
day, and the orange and purple worn |
by the Freshman class of that institu— ;
tion was the prevailing color on the
streets for the rest of the afternoon.
Class and college yells arrested the at—
tention of pedestrians and the college
boys had things mostly their own way.
They were in town to get ready for the
big banquet atthe Bush House last
night. Their afternoon and evening
were spent in ‘doing’ the town, but
nearly all of them wound up at the
opera house, where they had a merry
time.
At half-past ten o'clock proprietor
Daggett, of the Bush- House, threw op-
en the doors leading to the banquet
hall and the first year men entered.
Braudon’s orchestra was playing when
the boys appeared and the scene was
one of beauty. The decorations were
in orange and purple, the class colors
and tropical plants lent their verdure to
the charm of the vari-colored interior.
Covers had been laid for forty—five and
when the boys had taken the places,
assigned them there was a lullin the
mus:cduring which Jobu L. Given,
toast master, bade them be seated. The
table was set to represent a cross, pro—
ducing a very pretty effect and bring-
ing the banqueters into a closer relation
with each other. Beside each cover
laid a handsomely embossed souvenir
of the occasion.
The many courses of the menu were
served with elegance, the inspiring
strains of the orchestra producing an
entrancing; effect.

When the cigars were lighted
a rap from the toast master
brought the revellers to order
whereupon he called for toasts which
were responded to as follows: Some of
the men haviog acquitted themselves in
an exceptional manner :“P.S. C,,”" A.C
Hoy; “Our Class,” J. M. McKibben ;
“Our Professors,” F. W. Jessod; “Ma-
chinery Hall,” G. M. McKee ; “The
Ladies,” L. P. Phelps; “Our Football
Team,” B. F. Fisher; “Oar Past,” W.
A. Lyon; “Oar Fature,” H. A. Kuhn.
After Mr. Kuhn had finished paint-
ing a glorious future for each one of
those intelligent looking young
men, and the last look was
given the tables which had
been things of such beauty and grace
when they entered, they left the hall
and bade the town good night. A
special train was awaiting them at the
station and with all on board it car-
ried them back to their college. Dall
students they are to-day no doubt,
but the better off for the pleasant
diversion. :
The class committee Messrs. C. M.
Thompson, G. K. McFarland and J.
T. Motz handled the banquet ina
highly satisfactory manner. The af-
fair has seldom been surpassed in point
of tasteful arrangement by anything
that has yet taken place in Bellefonte,
The menu was elabrate, the courses
daintily served, the tables artistic in
their effect and the whole reflected the
greatest credit on Mr. Daggett and his
efficient corps of attendants.

‘We clip the following pointer
from an exchange: What shall it pro-
fit the country editor if he shall gain
the applause of the whole world and
lose that dollar you owe him for sub-
scription ? For all is vanity save that
dotlar. Yea, verily, man shall not live
by bread alone, but it is very essential
that he have a little bread, and where-
withal shall a young man buy bread if
the dollar is withholden ? Brethren,
think on these thinks.
—— An exchange tells of the follow-
ing astronomical show which awaits
our readers on the twentieth of this
month. “A very interesting phenom-
enon occurs on Feb. 20, when the new
moon comes directly between us and
Jupiter, hiding or occulating the planet
for about an hour. Unluckily this oc-
curs in the day time in this locality, and
the most we can see here will be a close
approach of these, the two brightest ob-
jects in the heavens, They will present
a beautiful spectacle side by side on the
evening of the 20th,
Of “Forgiven” as jpresented by
Frederick Bryton, the New York Her-
ald said: “The audience never missed
an opportunity to give ventto its ap-
preciation of the many strong scenes
with which the play abounds. Indeed,
so great was the applause that the prin-
cipals were compelled to come before the
curtain atthe end of each of the acts to
bow their acknowledgements.” Bryton
will be at the Garman’s opera 2house
Monday evening February 20th.
——PFrank Dinant and wife, of Ash-

last week. They went abroad to con-
sult Dr. Pasteur, the noted French spe-
cialist on Hydrophobia. Last March
Mr. Dinant undertook to separate two
dogs that were fighting in his yard,
when one of them bit him. He gave
the wound very little attention until
the swelling extended over his entire
body and running sores broke out. The
home physicians succeeded in relieving
him at the time, but lately symptoms
of the return of the trouble having de-
veloped Mr. Dinant decided to consult
the recognized authority in such cases.
He is a well-to-do miner whose thrift
has made him quite indeperdent.
A CHILD PERISHES IN THE FLAMES.
-—A little girl was burned to death in
Faulkner’s addition of Philipsburg on
Tuesday evening. She was a daughter
of a Mrs. Herron and met her death as
follows : Mrs. Herron’s husband was
killed at Connelsville last June and the
widow has heen living at Faulkner's
with her four children, one of whom
was born just a few days since. Tuesday
evening she put two of the little ones to
bed and was nursing the baby down
stairs, whence she sent the oldest child,
a boy of eight years, up stairs to get her
a dress for the infant. It is supposed
that the boy accidentally set fire to some
clothing, for shortly after his return
with the dress his mother was attracted |
by a crackling noise up stairs. Upon
going to the stair case she saw that the
whole second floor was in flames. An
alarm was quickly given and neighbors
made desperate efforts to save the chil-
dren who were sleeping in the burning
room. The little boy was gotten out
but a little five year old girl could not
be reached and she perished. The moth-
er is in a critical condition.
