Prize Essays oN BELLEFONTE, —
Sometime ago the Board of Trade offer-
led a prize of $10 for the best essay on
| Bellefonte, restricting the number of
“words to one thousand or less. A com-
mittee was appointed to receive and
examine all essays submitted and they
reported at the meeting on Tuesday
night that out of the four that were re-
| cetved two had been decided upon as of
| practically the same merit, so they
deemed it advisable to divide the prize
and accept both. The authors were
then discovered to be Albert N. Owen
and F. Potis Green. The one we
publish in order to give our readers a
little fresh intelligence on which they
can blow Bellefonte.
MR. GREEN'S ESSAY.
Bellefonte, beautiful Bellefonte—the
home of governors, geographically lo-
cated in the centre of the state of Penn-
sylvania, seven hundred and thirty-two
feet above sea level and the county
——Small pox is said to be prevalent
in Altoona.
——This is the last week tickets will

ler’s drug store in the Exchange.

the opera house in the latter place.
—A soft glove contest amused
Philipsburg sportsmen on Monday
evening. The Philipsburg pugilist
broke his wrist in the third round, but
stuck to it until he had whipped his
Philadelphia combatant and wor the
gate receipts.
——Mr. Alex Whiteman has retired
from the mercantile firm of Sommer-
ville & Co., at Winburne, Clearfield
seat of Centre county, was laid out in
1795 and incorporated in 1806 and now
contains a population of about five
thousand inhabitants. ~The beautiful
fountain (‘‘Belle Fonte’) from which it
‘takes its name rises in the very heart of
the town and throwing off 14,600 gal-
lons of clear, cold, sparkling water a
minute without variation either in tem-
perature or quantity during any part of
the year, has a capacity for supplying a
city of fifty thousand-people.
Bellefonte is noted for its delightful
atmosphere, romantic scenery lovely
drives and the refinement and culture
of its inhabitants. It is surrounded by
hills that insure it against cyclones, has
ten churches, a free library, large acad-
emy, the best system of graded public
schools, five weekly newspapers and
two dailies ; these with its pure water
good drainage, electric light, gas and
steam heating plants, free postal delivery
and being within twelve miles of the
Pennsylvania State College to which
three trains run daily, make it the ideal
home of the literary man the retired
gentleman, or those who desire to give
their children a thorough, practical and
technical education. Lying as it does
in the midst of a rich agricultural re-
gion underlaid with the finest quality of
limestone in the world and with im-
mense deposits of hematite and fossil
ores, with splendid water power and
being connected with all the large cities
by competitive li.es of railroad, the
Penna., N. Y. Central and Reading, it
should become the Mecca of manufac-
turers.
There are two furnaces with a capaci-
ty of one hundred tons each daily and
one cliarcoal furnace making the high-
est grade of that kind of iron, the whole
of which produce should be used here.
There are also a complete sixteen pot
window glass factory, large nail works,
foundry and machine shops, two plan-
ing mills, three roller flouring mills,
scale works, chain works, boiler works
and three coach factories, while its
kilns for the manufacture of lime and
ground limestone are the most extensive
in the country and the quality unsur-
passed by any in the world. The water
power in the vicinity is extensive and
much of it waiting to be utilized. The
soft coal and coke region lies within
eighteen miles and the competing lines
of railroad can be laid down at a very
low rate of freight.
As a location for the manufacture of
all articles into which iron, lime, coal
and sand enter it has on superioron the
continent.
If you are in business and desire a
better location, or if you have anything
worth manufacturing and wish to start
in the best place calculated to insure a
paying business, you are cordially in-
vited to correspond with Mr. James
Harris, President, or Clement Dale,
Esq., Secretary of the Bellefonte Board
of Trade.

died suddenly at bis home last Thursday
morning. He was a brother of the late
John Hoffer, of this place, and of Peter
Hoffer Esq., and Mrs. Jared Murray, of
Centre Hall. His death was somewhat
of a co-incidence in that he was the last
of a trio of aged hotel keepers who died
suddenly within two weeks in Hunting-
don. In life they had been boon com”
panions.

——A party of five State College
students drove through this place last
Saturday night on their way home from
a day’s hunt in the mountains near
Snow Shoe. They had a fine deer and
+ number of pheasants as the result of
their sport. Some people are mean
enough to think that the deer was dead
when the boys got it. The party was
made up of J. E. Quigley, James Fos.
ter, H. P. Dowler, A. D. Belt and Ben
Williams.
——Charley Garner Jr., who will be
remembered as the only colored boy who
ever graduated from the Bellefonte
High school, is now a porter in the Ward
house, in Tyrone. He distinguished
himself the other morning by nearly
breaking down the door of a room in
which a guest was sleeping, who had
left an order to be called at seven
o'clock. Charley pounded on the door
until his knuckles were raw, then con-
cluding that he had a case of suicide on
his hands went down to the office to
tind out that the sleeper was a deaf
mute.
At a regular meeting, on last
Monday night, council decided to con-
tinue lighting the streets indefinitely at
the cost of $8.75 for each arc light and
at the former price of $1.50 per month
for each of the fitty-five incan-
descent lighta. The advance of
twenty-five cents per month on each of
the arc lights was occasioned by the
change in time of use. Hereafter they
will burn all night instead of until one
o'clock a. m. Jus. Harris presented a
petition and proposition to council to
lay a boardwalk along Water street, from
High to the C. P. R. R. stations for $210

the Street committee and the borough
engineer can go over it and report to a
special meeting of council. Other busi.
ness of less importance was transacted
‘ani the meeting adjourned.
DEATH oF JAMES LAURIE.—Al-
though it had been known for several
days that he was in a precarious condi-
tion his death was notso suddenly ex-
pected and the announcement of it.
Wednesday morning, created much sur-
prise and sorrow throughout the town.
More than a year ago his friends no-
ticing his failing health urged him to
go South or West, but with the confi-
dence of youth and the hopefulness of
a consumptive he accepted instead, a po-
sition with the Mann Edge Tool Co., of
Lewistown and when their shops were
burned in March he took a heavy cold,
from the effects of which he never re-
covered.
The second son of Rev. Dr. William
Laurie, he was born in Philadelphia
thirty years ago the 9th of last June.
Since '76 when his father accepted the
pastorate of the Presbyterian church he
has been a Bellefonte boy. A boy who
was liked and admired by old and
young for his pleasant manner, his
kind disposition and his general; good
heartedness. He learned book keeping
under Mr. Howard Lingle at W. P.
Duncan and Co., and ably filled, at
different times responsible positions
with H. K. Hick’s, J. J. Pie, Osceola,
the P. R. R. Co., and the Bellefonte
Nail works. Bright and quick he was
a favorite in school, with his business
associates and in society. And since
Joining the Christian Endeavor society,
several years ago displayed that rare
earnestness of purpose and devotion to
truth which mark an honest Christian
character.
His death is the third one that has
occurred in Dr. Laurie’s own family re-
cently, and the sympathy of the entire
community is with them in their be-
reavement, His funeral services will be
held this afternoon at three o'clock in
the Presbyterian church.
COMERFORD — THOMAS — At high
noon on Wednesday, Rev. W. H,
Christ, of Lock Haven, pronounced the
ceremony which rade Marie Louise
Comerford the wife of George Theodore
Thomas, of Pittsburg, The nuptial
event was solemnized at the home of
the bride's grand-father, Bernard
Lauth Esq., the noted iron manufactur-
er and inventor of Howard, and was wit.
nessed by friends from all parts of the
State.
The parlors of the Lauth homestead
were prettily decorated with chrysanthe-
mums and potted plants, and as Lee B.
Woodcock, of this place, played the
introduction to Mendehlson’s grand
wedding march Mr. John Thomas, a
brother of the groom, and Mr. Benj.
Comerford, a brother of the bride,
made an aisle with white ribbons
through the assembled guests, Mr. Ed-
ward Keating and Miss Genevieve Fri-
| day, of Pittsburg followed and took
their positions at either side of the
clergyman, after them, Miss Rachel
Burnside, a dainty little flower girl,
preceded the bride and groom elect.
The ceremony over, she scattered flowers
down the aisle and the party proceeded
to the south parlor where the reception
was held.
The bride was formerly a well known
young society woman of this communi-
ty, but recently has made her home in
Pittsburg. Her husband is connected
with the firm of Jas. P. Scott & Co., of
the Smoky city.
A CHILD BurNED T0 DEATH.--On
last Friday morning the infant daugh-
ter of Alfred Stewart, colored, met with
a frightful accident which resulted in
her death on Saturday.
The family of Mr. Stewart lives on
Penn street, the mother and little daugh-
ter being alone at the time of the acci-
dent. Mrs, Stewart, on going into the
basement of the house, left the child by
itself in the kitchen above. She had not
gone long until agonizing screams from
above warned her that something had be-
fallen the baby. Quickly she ran upstairs
and found it wrapped in flames. A piece
of old carpet thrown about it smothered
the fire out and a physician was sum-
moned, but when he took the fragments
of clothes off that were hanging to the
burned body, the flesh peeled off the
left side in great pieces. It was evident
that the child had been fatally burned
and it lingered until the next morning
when death ended its sufferings.
The only way the accident could
have occurred was that the child had
been playing with the fire.

tinue of her death she was in New York
for medical treatment, with her hus-
band, her daughter and three sons.
She will be buried in Ithaca, her home,
Saturday afternoon.

house with him, went to wake him in
