Isaac YaArNELL KILLED ON THE
CuNTRAL.--The first fatal accident on
the new Central Rail-road of Penna,
was that in which Mr. Isaac Yarnell,
of near Hecla Furnace, lost his life and
Judge Cyrus Gordon, of Clearfield came
vary near losing his also. The accident
ocurred within a short distance of the
Hecla station, on last Friday morning,
and the particulars are about as follows :
“Mr. Yarnell, who lives about a mile
from Hecla flag station, desired to coms
to Bellefonte on the train passing there
2t 9.84 a. m., and which arrives in this
this place at 9 55. Judge Gordon who
had been down to his farm and mill,
was also coming up that morning. On
the road to the station he and Mr Yar-
nell met and walked along together.
At the station a number of cars were
standing on thesiding and these had
basen uncoupled and drawn apart, per-
haps ten feet, to allow passengers to cross
the track to the small station building
which stood on the opposite side of the
main line.
When Judge Gordon and Mr. Yar-
nell were yet some distance away they
saw the train coming and, kuowing
that to have it stop they would have
to get get there in time to flag it, they
both started on arun, Gordon in the
lead. In some way or other they failed
to notice just how near the train was,
and once behind the freight cars stand-
ing on thesiding it was impossible to
see the on rushing train, and just as im-
possible for the trainmen to see them.
Judge Gordon leading they plunged
through between the freight cars and then
seeing hisdanger Gordon made a mighty
leap and just succeeded in clearing the
track as the train sped by, brushing
his overcoat in passing. Mr. Yaraell,
being a step or so behind, was fairly in
the middle of the track when he was
struck by the engine, which was run-
ning at about thirty miles an hour, and
hurled a distance of sixty feet before
ever he struck the ground, after which
he was tumbled a further distance of
thirty feet by actual measurement.
Strange as it may seem the man,
though unconscious, was notdead, al-
though it seemed as if every bone in his
body must be broken. His right leg
was broken in two places and his head
was terribly cut, while his face and
body was a mass of bruises. The un-
fortunate man was picked up and ten-
derly conveyed to his home where he
lingered until 2:30 o’clock, in the after-
noon, when he breathed his last, without
having at any time regained conscious-
ness.
Mr. Yarnell was aged about 57 years.
He leaves to mourn his shocking death,
a loving wife and seven children, John
1., Sallie, Flora, Ambrose, Sadie, Myrtle
and Delmont, and in addition a large
number of sorrowing friends.”
The above account was taken from
Daily News, of last Friday, and since
then some singular facts have come to.
light concerning it. In the first place a
careful examination into the cause of
the accident reveals the fact that no
blame can attach tothe Rail-road offi-
cials, For strange as it may seem, no
one one on the train, neither trainman
nor passenger, knew thata man had
been killed until they were told of it
after the train had arrived here. Even
Judge Gordon did not know that his
companion had been struck until he
was told of it here, and consequently did
not realize the danger he had been in
himself, until the tale of Mr. Yarnell’s
sad death was given him. He remem-
bered then that the train had not been
able to stop directly at the station so he
ran on down the track to get aboard.
On entering the rear car he remarked to
the conductor “I think there is another
passenger coming,” but as ha did not
put in appearance the train went on.
Ifhe had not been killed it would
have been the unfortunate man’s first
car ride. His body was found by some
men, who had been cutting ice near-by,
who were attracted to the spot because
they had seen the men attempt to cross
the track ahead of the train and not
seeing either of them afterwards,
thought both had been killed.
GEORGE W. F. GRAY DEgap.—The
death of Mr. George W. F. Gray, which
occurred at his home, near Fillmore, on
last Saturday evening, marked the end
of the life of one of Buffalo Run valley’s
most esteemed residents. He had been
in failing health for a long time, when
paralysis of the throat made a speedy
end of his sufferings from other diseases.
Deceased was born in the month of
April, in 1826, and through life had
been a man who merited the confidence
he always enjoyed. His bereaved fami-
ly, consisting of a widow and four chil.
dren, are sorely afflicted at the loss of a
devoted husband and father. His death
adds another blow to the grief of that
family for only a few weeks before they
buried the youngest son, W. Hubert,
whom diphtheria had cut down in the
promise of a useful life.
Interment was made in Gray’s bury-
ing ground, in Half Moon, on Tuesday
morning, after services had been held in
the Methodist church at Fillmore.
——E. R. Chambers Ksq., has been
continued as deputy-revenue collector of
this district, pending the appointment of
| 4
a 8uCcessor.
——The Milton car works has receiv-
ed an order for 450 cars from the Dele-
ware, Susquehanna and Schuyikill rail-
road.
——Samuel Decker, a twenty-two
year old man of Saydertown, died of
consumption at hig home there, on Sun-
day morning. His interment was made
on Tuesday.
——Special revival services were
conducted in the Presbyterian church,
in this place during the week. The
meetings were under the charge of Dr.
Wallaco and Rev. Decker, of Lewis-
town, who constitute a committee sent
out by the Huntingdon Presbytery to
encourage revivalism in the church.
——Emma Lilly, a Houtzdale young
lady, appeared on the stage in that
town, recently, with the James Young
Co., in “Hamlet”. One of the lady
members of the show was taken ill at
Houtzdale and it is;said Miss} Lilly
went on and took her place as though
she had been playing!it for years. She
went with the company touring until
the recovery of the sick actress.
——Farmer's Institutes will} be held
at Rabersburg, on the 20th, and] 2lst.,
and at Unionville on the 22nd and 23rd
of this month. The WarcaMAN will
give the program in full prior to the
convening of the Institutes. Hon. Jno.
A. Woodward, of Howard, will have
the general management of them and
we hope they may prove successful in
every particular.
——The Pennsylvania railroad com-
‘pany has adopted as its standard a rail
weighing 80 pounds to the yard and 60
feet long, instead of 80, which has been
laid heretofore, and the ends of the rails
instead of being square, face to face,
form a mitre joint. It is claimed that
in the use of a 60-foot rail the danger in
passing over curves will be greatly les-
sened, while a great saving in wear will
result. :
——A merry sledding party left Axe
Mann, last Tuesday evening, behind
Nelson White's fine team of horses and
drove to the homs of Mr. Benjamin
Gentzel near Zion. There they spent
the evening ina very enjoyable way
and when the wee sma hours of the night
bad come they started home. All speak
in highest terms of the hospitality of
of Mr. Gentzel and his estimable family.

Endeavor society, of Howard, will hold

cupied by Sam’l Brickley. There will al-
so be numerous fancy and useful articles
sold at reasonable prices. The proceeds
to be used for the benefit of the Evan-
gelical church. All are very cordially
invited to attend.
——This evening, February 9th,
there will be an exhibition of Edison’s
wonderful phonograph in the Evangeli-
cal church, on Willowbank street, and all
who can should go to hear this remarka-
ble production of science. The admis-
sion price has been made low enough, 20
and 10 cents, for all to attend and from
a scientific standpoint the entertainment
will be well worth the money. Besides
it will amuse with songs, impersona-
tions and musical selections, exact re.
productions of the world’s most famous
artists.
-——We understand that a great many
readers of the WATCHMAN are in doubt
as to the truth of our account of the
brutally treated Harmon boy who is now
in the poor house being nursed. Their
doubtfulness, we trust, was not founded
on any established reputation the
WAaTcHEMAN has for enlarging things,
for we have always tried to make relia-
bility one of the principle features of
our paper. Regarding the Harmon boy
every word the WATCHMAN published
can be sworn to and we might have ad-
ded even more harrowing evidences of
the fiendish parents’ brutality than we
did, but the very fear that it would not
be believed kept us from it. Indeed we
can hardly censure our readers for enter-
taining a doubt in the matter, for we
are frank to confess that we considered
several men falsifiers until we visited
the child and saw it.
——1In our last week’s 1ssue we gave
an account of the robbery of Orrin Mil.
ler’s smoke house, and of some clothes
lines on east High street, on the proper-
ties of Thomas Benner and Isaac Miller.
Since the night of the robbery several
suspects have been watched and a num-
ber of their homes searched, but with-
out avail. On Saturday officer Foulk
got on to a clew which he worked up
and resulted in the arrest of William
Hanna, who livesin a shanty back of
the nail works. A search of his hut led
to the recovery of part of the meat,
which he had buried in an old boiler,
and of the clothes which were found in
a bag under the floor. Once confronted
with such evidences of his guilt he con-
fessed, but flatly refused to divulge the
names of his accomplices, saying that he
would rather tuke tweaty years in the
“Pen.” than give them away, since
they had families depending on them.
A Goop Lire ENDED, —On last Sun-
day night, Mr. Ephraim Glenn, one of
Buffalo Run’s most respected and best
know men, died athis home near Fill-
more. An attack of pneumonia follow-
ing a severe cold was the cause of his
death and while he was sick only five
days, bis condition was alarming from
the start for he had been failing with
beart disease for months.
He was a man whose quiet life and
honest character won for him the com-
mendation of all. Charitable and kind
to a fault, he was honest as the day, and
while be hated vice with the instinctive.
hatred of a man whose life was clean be-
cause his heart was pure, he was always
tolerant cf the opinions of others. Born
August 14th, 1827, at the old Glenn
place in Ferguson township, his entire
life has been spent in Centre coun-
ty. A farmer as his father and
grandfather, had been before him,
he was always most interested in
pablic affairs and actively worked
for theschools and church of his district.
For fifty years he was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal church and no pas-
tor foand him other than a willing
helpar and a steadfast friend.
His wife, who was Elizabeth ‘Meek,
oldest daughter of R. H. Meek, and
sister of the editor of this paper, five sons,
Dr. W. 8S. of State College, Rev.
George M. of Hughesville, Dempster, of
Braddock, Tom and Reuben at home, his
aged mother, ninety-three years
old and seven sisters survive him.
‘Wednesday morning, after the services
which were attended by a great number
of friends, he was taken to Meek’s church
and laid to rest in the old burial ground
by the side of his only daughter who
died five years ago.
THE LATE HENRY BARNHART.—
Henry T. Barnbart whose death occur-
red at his home near Cartin’s works,
on Monday evening, at six o’clock, was
a man well known and estsemed in the
community in which he lived. For
years he was captain of the old Eagle
Guards, an organization which flourish-
ed before the war and with the first call
for volunteers he took his command to
Harrisburg and there he delivered it to
the State service. He had reached the
seventieth year of his life, the most of
which he spent as an honorable farmer.
His demise came after an illness of only
four days with diabetes.
He was a brother of Mr. P. W.
Barnhart and is sarvived by a widow,
whose maiden name was Mary Joslyn,
and four sons, by name, Johan C.,
William, Irvin D. and Alfonso, who is
somewhere in thé West. His two daugh-
ters, one Mrs. Dr. H. K. Hoy, the other
thelate Mrs. H. H. Harshberger, having
preceded him to the grave.
Funeral services were held in the
Evangelical church at Curtin’s on,
Wednesday morning, and interment was
made in the family lot in the Curtin ceme-
tery.
COUNCIL IN SESSION.—A regular
meeting of Council, on Monday night,
had ‘very little business to transact, ex-
cept that of a routine nature.
In acting on the request of the Board
of Trade to exempt the Lamokin car
works from taxes for a period of five
years, provided it locates here, Council
extended the period of exemption to ten
years and thus helped along the good
work which may possibly secure that
industry for our town.
An offer presented by the Logan
Steam Fire Engine Co., whereby it
agreed to take care of the disbanded
Coronet Co’s. hook and ladder truck and
keep it in fire service provided Council
would pay the Logan's the annual ap-
propriation formerly paid the Coronets.
The same to be used in maintaining the
engine horses. Council accepted the
proposition.
Tar Horse SHOW. —A large and in-
terested audience witnessed the opening
performance of Bartholomew’s Equine
Paradox at the Academy of Music yes-
terday afternoon. The entertainment
given by Mr. Bartholomew’s phenome-
nally intelligent animals is certainly a
wonderful one, and in point of novelty
has not been surpassed in this city for
many a day. By years of patient and
persistent training twenty-four magnif-
cent specimens of blooded stock have
been taught a variety of acts and
evolutions, the execution of which
evinces a sense and reasoning power al-
most human. N. Y. World

A special train will run over the
Central Rail-road of Pa., on Wednes-
day, and over the Bellefonte Central, on

-—Cotton seed meal 1s a most excel-
lent food for milk cows. One pound of
Cotten seed meal is worth two pounds of
corn chop. Buffalo Gluten feed stands
next to Cotten seed meal. One pound
of this Gluten meal is worth two pounds
of coarse bran for feeding cows—the
best is the cheapest.

CHARITY IN THE CoUNTRY Dis-
TRICTS.-Several weeks ago we mentioned
the fact that the people of College,
Harris and Ferguson townships, in the
goodness of their hearts, were about to
let their sympathy for the destitute of
the Philadelphia working districts
take tangible form, and several gentle-
men, having constituted themselves a
committee for receiving contributions,
went to work to gather up a whole car
load of farm products to be shipped
away to the suffering in the eity of
Brotherly Love.
Oa last Friday there was packed into
a refrigerator car, on the Pennsylvania
siding, at Lemont, 300 bushels of pota-
toes, 40 barrels of flour, a 300lb dressed
hog, 200ibs of salted meats, 200 full
suits of clothing, 200 heads of cabbage
and many other littlesubstantials which
are known only in the country and the
aggregate of the whole car reached, at
least, $600.00 in value. This was the
result of a little more than a week’s
charitable work infjthree townships in
Centre county. And what a feeling of
pride those country folk must have had
when they saw all that evidence of their
goodness ready for shipment. What
made it all the more satisfactory was the
knowledge thatit had been a wholly
voluntary work and that nearly every
family visited had responded in a man-
ner commensurate with their means.
If there should be similar undertak-
ings in every one of the twenty-five
townships in the county what blessed
messengers to the suffering} and unem-
ployed those cars, laden with substantial
provision, would be.
The people of College, Ferguson and
Harris townships have reason to be
proud of this substantial manifestation
of their charity, representing, as they
do, a class that is the most independent
and perhaps sees least of the miserable
side of life, as depicted in the cheerless
home of the laborer whose very living
stops when his work is done.

A WELL MEeriTED REBUKE.—The
Fiske Jubilee singers entertained a
crowded house at Garman’s, on Monday
night. The concert was ziven asa Y.
M. C. A. benefit and was a success both
from an artistic and nancial point of
view. Manager Luiden, the remark-
abla bass of the troups, gave some of
the audience a very appropriate lesson
which they would do well to heed in
the future. It seems that ever since the
opera house has been opened the people
who go to see and enjoy the entertain-
ments have been annoyed by the sense-
less stampede that is made for the doors
just before the final curtain fall. These
very fellows, who ars always so anxious
to get out before the show is quite done,
are erazy enough to getin so we can’t
for the life of us comprehend why they
continuwlly spoil the end of the play for
those who have paid to see it and whose
comforts common courtesy demands
recognition of.
As a last chorus, on Monday night,
the singers started that sweet old darkey
melody, “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,”
and before they had fairly begun to sing
it a whole mob of men and boys began
to get on their coats and scramble
through the aisles, Of course they
made such a racket that no one could
hear the singers and Mr. Luiden, reali-
zing the disadvantage under which his
p2ople were laboring, simple waved his
hand and the music stopped. He then
stepped to the front of the stage and an-
nounced that the rendition of the last
number would be held until those peo-
ple who seemed so anxious to getaway
could do so, and leave the rest of the
audience to enjoy the production undis-
turbed. :
Had the “sweet chariot” itself actually
swung across the stage there could not
have been a more reverential silence.
And the song was finished and the last
strains had entirely died away before
the hoodlums fully comprehended the
‘effect this rebuke of a colored man had
had on them.
