acres of land in Spring township, near
Pleasant Gap, the court ordered a ver-

SANTA CLAUS LETTERS A NUISANCE.
— While there is no one who would
have the heart to wish to deprive chil-
dren ot the innocent pleasure they derive
from holding converse with our mythical
Santa Claus, yet there is one class of
men who have to stand more than their
share of the burden which these childish
delights are bound to impose on someone.
We have the post office attachees 1n
mind just now. Chief clerk, G. W.
Reese, informed us, yesterday morning,
that already the mail boxes are turning
out various sized missives directed to
“Dear Old Santy’’ and the many other
names by which the despenser of Christ-
mas candies and toys 8 known ; all of
of trouble.
If parents would only advise the little
ones that the chimney corner, and not
the mail box, is the proper place for
their letters to Santa there would be
less trouble in the post office and a great-
ter likelihood of the notes reaching their
destination. :
—— While holding court last week
Judge Krebs, of Clearfield, was seized
with a severe illness and was forced to
from Bishop street to the house now
occupied by Mrs. Mary Butts, at the |
corner of Lamb and Allegheny streets, '
and his meat market to the room in the
Lyons building on Allegheny street,
adjourn the session until the regular
January term. The recognizances were
all forfeited and Judge Gordon will
have his, hands full when he takes his
seat on the bench.
In the case of Tressler vs. Essington.
dict was for the plaintiff in the sum of
which must be sent to the dead letter
office and involving an endless amount |
——The Lock Haven papers say that
the tobucco market is good.
i
—Dressing cases for ladies and
gentlemen at Green’s Pharmacy.
| ——Curwensville bas organized a
| cemetery company. The town will not
| be buried just yet.
—— Articles were signed last Thurs-
day by which the N. Y. C. Railroad
Co., becomes lessee of the Beech Creek
R. R. for a period of ninety-nine years.
——We are pleased to learn that Mr.
Edwin Tyson, of Philipsburg, who has
been dangerously ill for some weeks, is
improving and his recovery now seems
possible.
The Salem Lutheran church, at
Aaronsburg, was rededieated on last
Sunday and though the weather was
disagreeable in the extreme a large con-
gregation turned out to participate 1n
the services. Dr. H. O. Holloway, of
Mifflintown, and Dr. E. J. Wolf, of the
Theological Seminary at Gettysburg,
had charge of the dedication.
——The Thanksgiving assembly at
the College, last Friday evening, was a
marked success from a social point of
view. Rarely has the armory of that
institution been graced with a bevy of
such charming young women as made
up the list of dancers. They were from
all quarters of the State. The dance
was successfully managed and reflected
much credit on the committee,
——The members of the Logan
Steamer Co., intend holding a fair dur-
ing the holidays and are depending on
their friends to furnish articles of every
sort to make it a success. The boys
have an idea that a fair will be a good
way to raise maney to pay on their en-
gine and we do not doubt it, but with
all the excitement consequent on run-
ning such a thing we hope they will not
forget to have their annual New Years
masquerade ball.
——1In Wilham Swartz’s death,
which occurred at the poor house last
Thursday afternoon, Bellefonte lost a
character whose peculiarities were
I known to most all her residents. For
years this deaf-mute has been a familiar
figure in public places of the town. His
sudden death from heart disease in an
out-house where Warren Burnside
found him was a surprise to all. Fuuner-
al services were held on Saturday
afternoon. Deceased was about 77
years of age and during life had always |
been a faithful attendant at the Metho-
dist church.
——The death of Mrs. Louisa Peters
occurred at the home of her son, in
Unionville, last Thursday morning
from pneumonia. Deceased had been
ill but a short time and her sudden
death was a shock to the many friends
who had not even heard of her illness. |
She was 1n her seventy-third year.
Funeral services were held on Saturday
morning and interment was made in
in the Friend’s burying ground in this |
place. The bearers were Messrs J. M. |
Peters, William Peters, Edward Peters,
Oscar C. Peters, Alfred Paters and
Joseph Peters.
i
—— At the regular meeting of Greug
Post, No. 95, G. A R. on Saturday
evening, December 2nd, the following
officers were elected to serve during the
year 1894. S. V. Commander, Sam-
uel Zimmerman; J. V. Commander,
Wm. Eminhizer; Q M. W. H. Mus.
ser; Surgeon S. H. Orris; Chaplain,
Toomas Wilson; O. D. James
Kreps: O. G., Thomas Watson; Dele-
gates to annual encampment to meet in
Philadelphia in February, 1894, W.
H Musser and Thomas Wilson. Al.
ternates—J. A. Green and A. G. Roger,
Trustee—James McMullen.
——The advent of a seventh day
Adventist evangelist in town has caused
a furor among the church going people
here. L.S. Wheeler has been holding
meetings in the hall above the Centre
county bank and has succeeded in mak-
ing many of our people believe that we
are observing the wrong day as the Sab.
bath. His doctrine is an old one and it
seems strange that so many of our
people should lose their heads over it.
Rumor has it that the United Brethern !
minister here has about accepted the new |
doctrine and just where the revival will |
end is hard to tell. It matters not to
us what day is observed as the christian
Sabbath so long as one day of the week |
is set aside for that purpose. |
——An exchange publishes the fol.
lpwing explanation of the expressive
3 questionable phrase ‘pulling a leg” |
Tas defined by the Berks county court
a day or two ago. In the divorce case
of Lewis W. Yocum against his wife, a
letter written by the latter was produc-
ed, in which she told her husband if he
wanted ‘his leg pulled’ she would do
it. The question was asked what was
meant by ‘pulling a leg”. J. H'
Jacobs, counsel for the defense, said he
knew, Judge Endlich said it was a slang
term, meaning to get money from an-
other without giving an equivalent. |
| The court acquiesced in this definition
of “leg pulling.” The jury rendered a
verdict in favor of the wife, whom Yo.
cum had accused of infidelity.
Dearta’s Carn. —Mrs. N. H. Dck-
sn, wife ot the elder Dr, J. H. Dickson,
—The many friends of Mrs. Dickson,
will hear with sorrow that sha died on
Dc. 1st, 1893, of grippe at her home,
819 Penn avenue, Pittsburg, Pa. She
had been ill for four months, but her
condition did not become dangerous
untii a short time befure her death. She
was 71 years of age.
Mrs. Dickson was formerly Miss
Nancy Hurris Mitchell, second daugh-
ter of the late General John Mitchell, of
Bellefonte, Pa, one time Sheriff of Cen-
tre ccunty and member of Congress
from this district and Canal Commis-
gioner of the State. She received her
education in a young ladies seminary at
Hurrisburg, and removed with her
parents to Beaver, fifty-one years auo.
Her father died of the cholera, in 1849,
after his death she was united in mar-
riage to Dr. Dickson at the residence of
her sister, the late Mrs. Philip B. Kep-
heart, then of Lock Haven, afterwards
of Bellefonte, and made her home there
after in Beaver and Pittsburg.
Mra. Dickson was a most remarkable
woman, From early girlhood she was
keenly interested in the live topics of
theday. For the greater part of the
last thirty years she had been afflicted
with deafness and this affliction caused
her to devote the greater part of her
time to reading. She was well versed on
all political questions and probably
there was not a clearer or better talker
on politics—state, national, or municipal
among the women of Pittsburg, She
was 8 warm personal friend of ex Gov-
ernor A. G. Curtin and many other well
known politicians, who were frequent
guests at her father’s house. During
the war she ministered to the sick and
wounded soldiers nursing many back to
life, always doing for others, and mak-
ing sacrifices for them.
She was a member of the Central
Preshyterian church, taken into the
church in her girlhood by the Rev.
James Linn, of Bellefonte,” and always
attended services until disabled by
ill health. She was the pos-
sessor of a lovely Christian character
and was very charitable, many were the
calls made on her for aid, and if unable
to supply the needs of all she made it
her business to see that the required as-
gistan-e was received. She was in fact
a ministering angel to all.
Mrs. Dickson had no children and is
survived by her husband. Among ber
nephews ani neices are, Dr. Jos ph’ N|
Dickson, James W. Dickson, T. H.
Dickson, of Pittsburg, J. M. Kephait,
Bellefonte, W. W. Kephart, Brisbin,
the latter are her sister’s children, the
members of Senator Quay’s family, Mis.
Asnes Graff, Mrs. A. M. Watson ard
Miss Lizzie Dickson, Mrs. A. G. Henry,
of Kittanning Pa.

past two o'clock from her late home.
Hunting Deer WitH Doas.—As
the season for legitimate killing of deer
draws to a close in this State 1t becomes
more apparent that the game is getting
alarmiogly scarce. We use the word
alarmingly in its usual sense because if
the present rate of depletion keeps up it
will be a question of only a few years
until circus menageries and zo-ological
gardens will have the only specimens of
the genus cervus which was once so
well represented on our mountains.
There was a time when hunting par-
ties of six or eight men would go out
from this place for a two week’s camp
in the Allegheny or Tussey moun-
tains and return with & dozen or more
deer. But such is not the case now.
There has been a gradual extermination
which even the continued shortening of
the season fails to stop. And this is
due possibly as much to the work of
dogs as to the legitimate killing by
hunters.
It is well known that many places in
this county dogs are allowed to run at
large on the mountain and the mangled
carcass of many a deer tells of the de-
struction they do. While there is little
chance of protecting deer from the
huntsman’s bullet unless we get legisla
tion prohibiting their killing for a num-
ber of years, there is a way of stopping
their ruthless extermination by dogs.
There 1s a law against allowing bounds
to run at large on the mountains and
anyone dare shoot a dog which is on the
trail of a deer that has not been wound-
ed. Besides the owner is liable to a
fine and prosecution.
There is one section of this county
where there is a great number of hunt-
ing dogs which are running about all
the time and it is that section which the
authorities are b.ginning to watch.
Many reports have been brought in
from the line of the Tussey mountain,
all the way from Boalsburg to Spruce
Creek and it is to that locality that
interested parties are now giving their
attention. Owners had better take this
warning to keep their dogs tied up and
save themselves the trouble of possible
litigation.
