Tue Monster KRUPP GUN.—One of
the most interesting exhibits at the
World’s Fair will be the monster can-
non which Mr. Krupp, the German gun
builder, has sent to Chicago to represent
his wonderful works in Essen, Germany.
Thinking that our readers would be in=
terested in knowing a few facts relative
to its size and how such a monstrous
thing is transported we give the account
of its arrival at Altoona, westward
bound, as described by the Tribune of
Tuesday.
“That curiosity is a dominant quality
in the composition of a majority of the
inhabitants of the Mountain City was
evinced Monday night when thousands
journeyed from all parts of the city and
even from the outlaying districts to see
the monster Krupp gun, about which so
much has been written. As soon as it
was known that the gun was in the
yard, the people began to flock in that
direction. From the time of its arrival
shortly after 6 o'clock until after dark,
people made the Seventh street bridge a
point of vantage, from which to view
the wonderful piece of metal.
The gun arrived in charge of Car In-
spectors H. H. Kuhn and William
Frane, of this city. They say that they
had very littie trouble with overheated
journals on the way to this city and that
everywhere the cannon attracted a great
deal of attention. The journey west-
ward will be resumed this morning. It
is rumored that the car and its burden
will be photographed at Kittanning
Point this forenoon. Both ends of the
cannon were boxed up, but the remain-
der showed the bare metal. On the
bridge of the car was the inscription.
“Built by the Pennsylvania Railroad
company, Altoona shops, 1892. Weight
of Krupp gun, 270,000 pounds ; weight
of bridge, 47,000 ; weight of car, 64,000 ;
total weight, 445,000 pounds.”
The gun was unloaded from the Bri-
tish steamer, Lonquiel, at Sparrow Point,
Md., Saturday last, and was soon placed
on the special car which was built at
the Altoona shops and turned out in
December. The gun weighs 135 tons
and is forty-seven feet long, six inches
in diameter in its thickest prt and has
a sixteen and one-half inch bore. It!
carries a conical shaped shell weighing
2,200 pounds and will propel it sixteen
miles. It takes a charge of 1,000 pounds
of powder, and every time the gun is
fired it costs for material 5,000 marks,
$1,250. The cost of the gun at the
Krupp works in Essen, Germany, is
$85,000. Its total weight-is 270,000
pounds.
The car attracted almost as much at-
tention as did the deadly weapon. It is
a huge affair, which looks like some-
thing else on wheels. The stout flat
cars run up to within ten feet of one an-
another, and are connected by a super-
structure styled a bridge, having some-
thing of the appearance of a section of
elevated railroad pared down at the end,
make up the chariot on which Herr
Krupp’s masterpiece is to ride to Chica-
go. Lt is particularly rich in wheels.
There are thirty-two of them in all.
Each of the flat cars has sixteen, ar-
ranged on two eight wheel trucks,
which work on pivots. Further play
for curves is allowed by the attachments
of the bridge to the cars like the seat of
the attachment the small buy uses on his
bob sled.
The question of meeting the twists in
the railroads appears to have been met.
There is a lavish equipment in the way
of brakes. An old-fashioned hand af-
fair sticks up on each ot the flat cars,
while every wheel has its automatic
brake to be worked from the engine.
The coupling and bumpers are of the
most massive description. In facts,
there is a bigness about all parts of this
railroad gun carriage which is impres-
sive, and it looms up alongside other
cars as Jumbo used to tower above all
the other elephants in Mr. Barnum’s
menagerie. When in position on the
car the gun rests on several stout parti-
tions built of heavy steel and scalloped
out to suit the varying diameters of the
different sections of the engine of war.”
Drorpep OVER DEAD. —Last Friday
evening the venerable Daniel Lesh, of
Zion, retired in his usual state of health
and when his wifearose Saturday morn-
to get breakfast she noticed nothing of
an unusual nature about his breathing.
While down stairs she heard something
fall in the room she and her husband oc-
cupied, but not thinking seriously of it
finished getting the morning meal. This
done she went to awaken her husband,
when imagine her horror at finding him
lying on the floor with 'hir one arm
thrown over his face. Life had flown.
He was dead. His body was blocking
the door-way and from all appearances
death had overtaken him while he was
dressing.
Deceased was 73 years old and has
lived in Zion ever since retiring from
an active farm life some years ago. A
wife, three daughters and three sons,
mourn their bereavement of an honora-
ble, upright parent and citizen.
——Weare glad to notice that Lee
B. Woodcock, Bellefonte’s crack third
baseman of last season, is the leading
pitcher on the Princeton College team.
Ho is said to resemble the famous Tony
Mullane when on the field.
—— Sheridan troop, N. G. P., of Ty-
rone, will purchase a full dress uniform
at its own expense. :
——Some Williamsport streets have
been closed because of the mud reader
ing them impassable.
.——May Smith Robbins and her
company of clever specialists, will appear
in “Little Trixie” Monday night.
——At the recent sitting of the Blair
county license court Judge Landis
granted only forty-three out of eighty-
six applications. His cutting down will
close twenty hotel bars in the county.
——The new president of the Read-
ing rail-road, Joseph S. Harris, is a
brother-in-law of our former townsman
George F. Potts, who operated the Mat-
tern ore banks on the Bellefonte Cen-
tral rail-road.
——Daniel Haines, father of our
townsman David Haines, died in his
84th yeur, at the home of his son-in-law
at the Tyrone forges at eight o’clock Sat-
urday morning. Deceased was a mem-
ber of the Graysville Presbyterian
church.
——Patrick Meehan, who called
Milesburg his home twenty-seven years
ago, died in Tyrone on Monday even-
ing, from a complication of diseases
brought on by blood poisoning. His
wife is his only known surviving re-
lative.
——We would advise our country
readers to be on the lookout for a hay
fork swindler. Do not sign articles to
take the agency for his forks. A Le-
high county man signed the other day,
and he now has to pay a promisory
note for $224.
——William E. McClellan a respected
resident of Cold Stream, near Philips-
burg, died in his sixty ninth year on
last Saturday evening. His death was
the result of a paralytic stroke received
several years ago. He wasa brothqr of
Mrs. Chester Munson.
——Proprietor J. M. Neubauer is
getting the Brockerhoff house in order
again after all the werk of changing
hands and refurnishing it. Many of
the rooms and all the halls have been
repapered in the best ot taste, and when
the work is all done it will be one of the
neatest looking houses in the State.
——May Smith Robbins and ber
company will appear in ‘Little Trixie”
next Monday evening. She will ba re-
membered as the bright little soubrette
who delighted the people during Insti-
tute week with her marvelous dancing.
She is supported by a company of clever
specially people and merits a good
bouse.
——In our last week’s issue we stated
that W. Fred Reynolds had bought the
Linn street home of Dr. T. R. Hayes
for his brother Sam, which was an error
to a certain degree. Mr. Reynolds was
the purchaser, but he intends tearing
down the Hayes’ house and making the
whole lot into a lawn. A handsome
stable will be built on the rear of the
property.
——An exchange tells a story ‘of two
young men who had a wager that they
would prevail on a clergyman to drink
until he became intoxicated. He agreed
to drink with them, and to their undis-
guised joy announced that he would
drink like a beast. Imagine their sur-
prise when he fulfilled his promise by
taking nothing but water and of that
only a moderate quantity. He said a
beast notonly drinks water, but he
kaows when to stop drinking.
——Whenevera free lecture or con-
cert comes along the Court House is
sure to be crowded which accounts for
the full houses on Tuesday and Wed-
nesday evening. The Silver Lake quar-
tette was the attraction, and between
temperance songs and tart addresses the
gentlemen delighted the audience.
Though we were glad to see so many
people present, yet we could not help
wondering why so many of our people
are imbued with those penurious habits
which take them to free entertainments
and never permit them to even know
the evenings on which pay entertain-
ments are held.
——The new fire engine, which was
recently purchased in Pottsvilla by the
Undine hose company, arrived over the
Lewisburg road on Monday evening
and was quickly unloaded and hauled
to the house of the company, on Logan.
street, where it was inspected by a large
crowd of people. The steamer is a forty-
eight hundred pound, Clapp & Jones,
horizontal action pumper, made by the
American Steam Fire Engine Com-
pany. It had been in use for nine years,
but is to be so renovated that its salemen
guarantee it to be in first class condition
before a sale is’ effected. The price to
be paid for it is $12,000. On Tuesday
afternoon the firemen tested it on the
Diamond and its working was altogeth-
er satisfactory. When pumping through
a 1} inch nozzle a stream was thrown
from the Fountain on to the Court
House roof.
How MucH 11 WILL Cost YoU To
Go to THE FAIR.--Maany of our readers
have doubtless been thinking about
going to Chicago to see the World's
Fair and the most natnral question that
arises first in your minds is ‘*how much
will it cost?” In answer t: your self put
question we have taken the following
from an article which appears in this
week’s Easton Sentinel.
“What will it cost?” is a question of
deep concern to a large number of pros-
pactive Chicago World's fair visitors.
Presuming the questioner to be intent
only upon seeing the exhibition, getting
a maximum of return for a minimum
outlay, not over fastidious as to sleeping
accommodations, except as to cleanli-
ness, and not epicurean as to meals, the
answer is $25.80 for a ten day’s visit, to
which must be added railroad fare. His
bill of expense will be as follows:
Sleeping accommodations, at $1 per
night ....$10.00
Admission to the grounds, at 50 cents...... 5.00
Meals, two per day, outside the grounds,
z . 5.00
Side shows in Midway Plaisance..... . 5.25
One ride on each pleasure scheme 55
Total uiirineereeesssssnsrsssnssersarssssnens sersss suns $25.80
But he must be a stoic who hopes to
accomplish the feat, impervious, to
every form or seduction and allurement.
In answering “What will it cost” in
the spirit in which it is asked, an un-
derstanding of what is sought to be
accomplished by the visitor must be had
in order to approximate the time re-
quired. The enclosed portion of the ex-
position covers over 600 acres of ground
and contains fifty-two exposition and
state buildings, besides the buildings of
many foreign nations, and the stock ex-
hibit. The ground floor acreage under
roof is 161,6. This does not include
the eighty acres embraced in Midway
Plaisance, with its many attractions, for
which extra charges are made. Ten days
would possibly suffice for the ordinary
visitor to get a fairly thorough view.
Less time would involve weariness and
discomfort.
The following ison the ten days basis:
Riseping accommodations at $1.35......e...--$13.50
Admission to the grounds at 50¢ er DOD
Meals, breakfast twenty-five cents;
midday in the grounds seventy-
five cents ; tea twenty-five cents;
B25 crs eter cceaties ru eirrnireansrrensesesinstesetasts 11.50

CODE eid srssisensicdinvispssinnssanisnrersstiornint 1.00
Use of camp stool each day at ten cents.. 1.00
Tolal.............. semasrarrsrtrissieer nis] 80
If the visitor rooms beyond walking
distance of the grounds he must consider
transportation. From the business
centre the round trip can be made, by
cable or elevated lines, for ten cents;
by steam cars or steambout, twenty-five
cents.
The round trip railroad fare from this
county will be about $25,000 so adding
this to expenses whils there and allow-
ing a fair percentage additional for un-
forseen exigencies you will have a fair
idea of what the economical visitor to
the Fair, from Centre county, will
have to have in his clothes before he
starts.
—.It is seldom that strangers from
the far away land of Australia reach
our little town and when they do we are
more and more impressed with the rap-
id strides taken in the last half-century
in the easy and luxurious facilities for
traveling. To anyone who is reading
W. D. Howells “A Traveler from Al.
traria,”’ now being continued in the
Cosmopolitan, the responsibility rest-
ing upon Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Bell of
Howard street will be very forcibly
suggested, when they learn of the pres-
ence with them of Miss Jessie Legg and
her sister Mrs. Brown, of Melbourne,
Australia. They have five times taken
the joufney between Melbourne and
London, but this is their first experience
in crossing the Atlantic, Miss Legg ac-
companying her sister to New York
where they were joined by the latter’s
husband Mr. Frank Brown, of Chicago.
A two weeks’ sojourn in this wonderful
country will, we fear, give Miss Legg a
limited idea of our capabilities and we
sincerely hope she will not return
home imbued with the idea with which
so many English people seem to be, that
we are but few degrees removed in civ-
ilization from our aboriginal (athers.

of the puzzle to exercise a little caution
about whom he permits to play at the
game lest some fellow uses him accord-
ing to the directions which govern the
dice.
EB ET DR OE,
WHAT IT PossiBLY MEANS To CEN-
TRE CouNTY.—Representative Lytle, of
Huntingdon county, has given much of
his time during this session of the Leg-
islature in trying to get a bill passed “to
re-imburse counties for inoney expended
in rebuilding bridges destroyed by the
June flood of 1889. The bill has passed
second reading and Mr. Lytle is making
it a personal matter with his colleagues
soit 1s likely that it will pass.
It is not known whether the Governor
will sign the bill if it reaches him,
but if he does Centre county will proba-
oly profit by it to the extent of nearly
nineteen thousand dollars. It depends
entirely upon the way the bill is word-
ed. Should our county come under the
bill, the following bridges, which were
destroyed by the flood, would be paid
for by the State:
