and being afraid of blood poisoning, he
was compelled to undergo the opera-

A very graceful act was that of
Lt. Col. W. Fred Reynolds, on last
Friday night, when he invited all of the

mony done up in style and played the
part of master of ceremonies to perfec-
tion.
——Garman’s opera house should be
crowded, next Monday, night when the
celebrated Fiske Jubilee singers appear.
They are noted for the excellence of
their music and will givega concert well
worth hearing. Then too, it will be a
benefit forthe Y. M. OC. A., of this
place, and for that reason, aside from
the fact that it is an exceptional attrac-
tion, the house should be well filled.
Seats can be procured at Parrish’s drug
store.

THE C. R. of P. Excursion To WiL-
LIAMSPORT.—A't exactly 5:25, on last
Tuesday evening, the handsome passen-
gerengine, Ne-ha-sa-ne, drawing three
coaches, steamed out of the Central Rail-
road of Pennsylvania station, at the foot
of Lambstreet. It was an excursion
which that company was running in or-
der to carry persons from this and inter-
mediate points to Williamsport to hear
the Barnabee, Karl and MacDonald
road company sing DeKoven’s tune-
ful opera, Robin Hood, The
train was under the charge of
conductor John Hall and carried;
among its one hundred and thirteen
passengers, General Superintendent J.
W. Gephart, General Freight Agent
Frank Warfield, Station Master L. T.
Munson and his assistant, George B.
Johnson, and several other officials of the
road. Train Runner, P. J. Walsh was
directing the train from the Central’s
office and could not take in the trip
much to the regret of his friends more
fortunate. At Hecld, Nittany Hall ard
Huston the number was increased and
when Mill Hall was reached the train
ran on special time, over the Beech
Creek tracks, to Jersey Shore, taking
on many people at Lock Haven and
Wayne. At Jersey Shore the special
was given right of track over the Fall
Brook road and the run, thence to
Williamsport was made without stop.
The destination was reached shortly
before eight so that the excursionists
had plenty of time to get to the Lycom-
ing opera house, where the company
was booked. Therendition of the opera
proved as fine as anticipated, the lead-
ing parts being well sustained, while the
chorus, though provokingly ugly,
showed its excellent training and well
balanced music. After the opera lunch
was served at the city hotel and about
mid-night the train started on its return
trip.
The excursion wassplendidly conduct-
ed and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
That it caught the popular fancy is best
evidenced by the fact that so many
went along. Curiosity prompted many,
while love of good music was the in-
sentive for others. The fact that seemed
to surprise the party most was the con.
dition of the new road, which had been
generally supposed to have been very
rough, when in truth the train ran
smoother over it, at the same rate of
speed, than it did on either the Beech
Creek or Fall Brook tracks.
——Twelve inches of snow fell in
Philipsburg on Monday.
——A girl haby came to the home of
——A Mrs. Stillwell, who resides at’
the Forges, near Tyrone, is said to bave
the smallpox.
—— All Tyrone school children have
been ordered to be vaccinated because
of a reported case of small-pox near that
town.
——The Fiske Jubilee singers will be
here on Monday evening, February 5th,
to give one of their superb concerts for
the benefit of the Y. M. C. A.
—-A wreck on the main line below
Sunbury delayed the Montandon train
three hours on Monday. It did not
reach here until noon.
——On the 19th Clearfield county
will vote either to establish a county
poor farm or continue, as in the past, to
let each township look after its own
poor.
——The Coronet hook and ladder
company, of this place, has disbanded
owing to an inability to procure enough
men to man their apparatus. The
Hays truck will be turned over to coun-
cil.
——A mortgage of $600,000 was filed
in the Recorder’s office, in Lock Haven,
on Wednesday, by the Central Rail-
road Co., of Pennsylvania in favor of the
Fidelity insurance, trust and safe deposit
company of Philadelphia. It covers the
stock of the company and is intended to
secure the bonds that have been issued.
——Bartholomew’s Equine Paradox
which means a horse show, will be in
Garman’s opera house Monday, Feb:
12th, for a stand of three days. It is the
acknowledged best show of its kind in
America and all lovers of trained horses
will do well to remember the dates and
watch for future advertising.
——Mr. George B. Crawford, whose
pool and billiard room was destroyed in
the old Conrad house fire, several weeks
ago is now located in the McCarthy
building, on Bishop street, near Alle-
gheny, where he has commodious and
well appointed quarters. His tables
have been completely overhauled and,
with new cushions and coverings, are as
good asnew. Davotees of the game of
pool or billiards will ind his room an
enjoyable place to spend an evening, as
he maintains the best of order. A full
line of tobaccos, cigars and pipes, to-
gother with fine confections and soft
drinks, are always on hand and to this
department he invites the attention of
buyers. A cordial invitation is extend-
ed to all his old customers to visit his
new rooms.
CrorHES LINE RoBBERS.—On Mon-
day night a number of the residents of
east Bishop and High streets were re-
lieved of their change of underclothing,
which had been left on the wash lines
to dry. Monday was wash day and as
it was rainy clothes could not be dried
80 the good wives of Messrs Isaac Mil-
ler, the carpenter, and mail-carrier
Thomas Benner decided to leave their
washings on the line all night. Tues-
day morning was very disagreeable so
they did’nt take them in——no that
was’nt the reason either, for the clothes
were not there when morning came :
They had gone.
The same night sneak thieves en-
tered the smoke house used jointly by
Orrin Miller and a man named Lose,
who lives on east Bishop street, and
carried off about four hundred pounds of
meat. The same fellows are supposed
to be the ones who then went across the
hill to the Miller and Benner houses
and robbed the clothes lines. They are
positively known to have been men for
they took only the underwear of the
male element of the households.
SHOT A BEAR AND CAPTURED HER
Cuss.— While out hunting, last Satur-
day, Mr. Alfred Lucas, of Moshannon,
was attracted to the vicinity of the
South fork by the barking of his dogs.
He thought they had run up a porcu-
pine, which he knew to be in that re-
gion, go hurried up to get them away
from it before they would get so full of
quills as to be unfit for further hunting.
Accordingly he ran through the brush
to the place where they were barking
and found them making a great fuss
near a fallen tree. Thinking, of
course, that they had the porcupine un-
der the log he ran up to pull them off
and just when he reached them he found
that instead of a porcupine a huge she
bear was under the log. He was then
too close to get his gun up so he re-
treated a few steps, where he could
take aim, and fired. His gun was only
loaded with No. 8 shot, but they did
the work. Bruin’s neck was broken.
After he became positive that she
was dead he stooped down to drag the
carcass out when, imagine his surprise,
three tiny cubs ran out. They were so
small that they did not have their eyes
open. They could not have been more
than three days old and Mr. Lucas
caught them and. carried them home,
where he is now raising them on a
bottle. 8
NorHING DAUNTED, REV. HICKS 1S
PRrOPHESYING AGAIN.—We take the
following forecast fer February from
Word and Works :
Let it be remembered that February
is under the influence of Mars’ perturba-
tion, and that our terrestrial equinox
will be felt for the last half of the morth.
These facts necessarily call for much
stormy, disagreeable weather outside of !
the normal limits of the regular storm |
periods. But even the causual observer |
will see the great centers of storm move-
ments will hinge about the central dates |
of storm periods. On the 4th the equi- |
nox of Mercury will be at its center—
the reactionary storms will be central on ;
the 2nd and 8rd, and the moon will be |
new on the 5th This combination of |
causes may well be expected to cause a !
continuation of cloudiness, with rain,
sleet and snow, through most of the in- |
tervening time up to the regular storm
period, from the 7th to the 11th. Heavy
rains with thunder and lightning} to the
south, turning to destructive sleet and
snow storms northward, may be expect-
ed during these disturbances. The crisis
of the reactionary disturbances, normally
due on the 2nd and 3rd, will not likely
be reached until about the time of the
new moon—the 5th. A sweeping cold
wave will separate the perturbations
from the disturbances of the period be-
ginning about the 7th. will soon give
place to storm conditions in the westerly
regions, and during the 7th to 11th in-
clusive, storms of rain and snow will
visit all parts of the country as they
progress towards the Atlantic. Anoth-
er cold wave will sweep behind the
storms of this period, insuring cold
weather until the temperature rises for
reactionary storms, centrally due on the
12th and 14th. The probabilities are
that blizzards will result in the north at
both the periods above mentioned, and
that very cold weather will reach very
far south at the close of each period.
The 19th is the central day of the nexf
regular storm period, the first half of
which will be past before the actual
storms will be organized and well on
their eastward march. About the 19th
to the 21st inclusive, the disturbances
will reach their crisis in all central and
eastern sections. Meantime it will have
turned very cold in the west and north-
west, and by the 22nd the cold, clearing
wave will have beer felt far into the
south and to the Atlantic coast. The
last disturbance for the month will be
central on the 24th and 25th. This will |
be within two days of the centre of Mars
equinox, and all disturbances that may
arise are apt to be aggravated and ab-
normally prolonged, so that continued
spells of severe and stormy weather may
be expected. February will end in
most parts of our continent in cold win-
ter weather. Such to our mind are in-
dications, and we so admonish. March
promises to bean unusually hard month,
Our reasons for such forecast have been
fully given many months ago—are
found in our 1894 Almanac, and will be
amplified still morein Word and Works
for next month.
Diep AT Rock SpriNG.—The death
of the venerable Robert Glenn occurred
at his home, near Rock Spring, on Sat-
urday evening, Jan. 27. He was aged
84 years. For the last year he had been
afflicted ~vith softening of the brain but
at times was quite rational, always re-
maining close with his family. Some
ten days ago he had an attack of la
grippe which hastened his death.
Mr. Glenn was one of Rock Spring’s
best known men, honest in all his busi-
ness transactions. His word was con-
sidered as good as his note. He always
took an active part in all public affairs.
It was, however, as a farmer that he
was noted, always being to the front in
any movement to advance the interest
of the public good. His charity fund
was never exhausted ; no one ever went
to him to be turned empty-handed away.
His wise counsels will be missed in re-
ligious as well as social circles. For
forty years he was an authorized ruling
elder in the Presbyterian church.
His invalid wife, two daughters, Nan-
nie and Sadie, at home and Mrs. W. H.
Bailey at Pine Grove, together with le-
lions of friends, mourn the death of the
old patriarch, whose remains were
laid away by the side of his father’s in
the Graysville cemetery Wednesday at
11 o’clock A. M.—Tyrone Herald.
Jaco WiLLiams Dap. —At an early
hour on Wednesday morning Jacob
Williams, one of Bellefonte’s most es-
teemed colored men, died. He had
been suffering with pneumonia for sev-
eral days previous, but it was thought
he would survive the attack. Deceased
was fifty-four years of a ge and for the
last twenty yeare of his life was head-
waiter at the Bush House. Being a
a veteran of the late war, in which he
served with credit as a sergeant in
Cap't. Riley's Co. K. 6th Reg, U.S.
Colored Troops.
Having been the first member of the
Bellefonte chapter, Royal Order of Odd
Fellows, to die he will be buried by
that order this afternoon.
A widow and family of small child-
ren survive him.
——Last Thursday a young son came
to grace the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gar-
rity, in this place.
—At a special meeting of the
Philipsburg borough council, held last
Monday night, that body refused to ac-
cept Judge Farst’s recent ruling on the
Lohr case, by which he gave Mrs. Lohr
$1,050 damages for injuries sustained on
a defective board walk in the borough of
Philipsburg.

Mip - WINTER DANDELIONS AND
CATERPILLARS.--It is not often that
such evidences of warm weather as dan-
delions and caterpillars are found in
January, but such has been the case in
Bellefonte. This has indeed been a re-
markable winter so far as its tempera-
ture has been concerned. Not since the
middle of November has there been a
real snappy, cold day and even: then we
experienced only three ginuine winter
days. But through all the warm weath-
er we have had, thus far, there has re-
mained for the week just ended te dis-
close the most remarkable evidences of
the high temperature.
One morning last week John Bair,
who has the south-eastern mail route, in
the town, was working along Logan
street when he came across a lively
caterpillar that was crawling along the
board-walk as gayly as if it had been a
June morning. And on Sunday Mrs.
L. A. Schaeffer, of east Curtin street, was
walking down the pike, during the af-
ternoon, when her attention was attract-
ed to a bright yellow flower, growing
by the road side. She plucked it and
found itto bea dandelion in perfect
bloom. The stock was green and vig-
orous as if no frost had nipped it during
the entire winter.
News Purely Personal.

days pleasantly at the home of Mrs John Ar-
dell, on Linn street.
—Sheriff Condo and Treasurer John Q.
Miles journeyed to Pittsburg, on Monday
morning. They took two prisoners out to
serve terms in the Western penitentiary.
—William Fisher, a former resident of this
community, who has resided in Philipsburg
for a number of years past, is in town in the
capacity of a jurior. “Dad,” as we called him
long ago, is the same fellow in manner and
looks that he was when he made pocket mon-
ey on streets by selling fresh fish. He follows
the carpentering business now and has a nice
home in Philipsburg.
—In another column of this issue will be
found a poem in Pennsylvania German dialect
and its author will recall to the minds of many
of our readers the name of “Carl Schrieber,”
whose verses in German have oft delighted
those who could read them and whose English
contributions to the WarcuMAN were ones of
value. Atone time he lived at Rebersburg, this
county, but several years ago he moved to St.
Louis, Mo. where he has resided since, having
made quite a success of his connection with a
well known electrical company in that city.
When the Warcnmax is delivered to 3971 A.
Finney Ave., it will find Mr. C. C. Zeigler, for |
that is the real name of ‘Carl Schreiber,” the
For the WATCHMAN.
HARTE ZEITE!
(In Pennsylvania German Dialect.)
By CARL SCHREIBER.
Dio Zeite sin so greislich hart
Das, em schier gaarli dottlich ward ;
Ken Geld, ken Arwet, schier ken Brod—
Es sieht bal aus wie Hungersnoth.
Was is die grindlich Ursach dann—
Weescht du’s, gedreier Handwerksmann ?—
Dass unser Land so voll is heit
Vun Millionaires un Bettelleit ?
Dheel meene des, dheel meene sel
Waer Schuld an daere “stringent” Shpell ;
Mir is es deitlich wie die Sunn—
Dar Tariff is die Schuld devun.
Dar Tariff schafft verdammt ungleich—
Ar macht die Reiche noch meh reich ;
Die Aarme awwer —Gott arbarm :—
Die Aarme macht ar noch meh aarm.
Dar Tariff schtifft die “Trusts” un “Pools,”
Kaaft votes van “legislative tools ;”
Ar macht, far jeder Millionaire,
En hunnert dausend Maage laer.
Economy, economy !
Schpaare misse mar, saagt die Fraa ;
Economy, economy—
Bis mar aus em Heisli kummt !
Hz NEVER SAW THE PoiNt.—Dur-
ing the trial of a case in Court, on
Monday afternoon, the question of the
stability of a certain section of farm
fence came up for consideration and a
witness, an ex-county official by the
way, upon being asked if he thought it
would turn cattle, responded :
“I don’t know.”
He was then asked if it would turn
pigs ; to which he replied, “I didn’t
try it.”’
He is now wondering why the court
laughed.
