consider the purchase of one of these

picnic grounds would be a great draw-
ing card and a sure money maker.

A Rainow CHASER. —A good joke
found many believers on our sireets
Wednesday morning. A story had
been sent out that workmen, who were
digging in the cellar of the old Conrad
House, had found an old un can in
which there was hidden $762 in coin
and bank notes, Soon the vicinity of
the building was crowded with people,
all curious to see the pot of gold which
workman Anthony Tonner’s pick had
luckily turned up. To the many in-
quiries as to ‘‘where is it ?”’ “where was
it when you found it?” and the like,
Vince Bauer, the foreman of the work, di-
rected every one to Cpnningham’s Paiace
cigar store. There they were shown
a few blackened balf-dollars, some old
silverdimes, and a ‘shin plaster’—worth
twenty-five cents, which were said to
have been a few specimens of the booty
that was then safely laid up in the safe
in Brockerhoff’s wholesale grocery es-
tablishment on Bishop street,
A rusty old tin bucket, with a tin
covering, and a wire were shown as the
receptacles of the hidden treasure that
had been found. Credulous ones stood
with open mouths and gazed at the old
tin can,then ran across the street to see the
hole 1n which it had been found. Then
they ran back to ask more questions
about it, but they all met the same,
frank response.
There was one bad point in the story,
however, for in among the blackened
coins dated along in the 30s there was
that twenty-five cent ‘shin plaster,” bear-
ing date of 1874. It was as nice and
straight as if it had been in some one’s
pocket-book instead of hidden away in
the cellar of the Conrad House. Then
the date was against the story, forsensible
people of such late days as "74 don’t hide
money in their cellars.
Imbued with an idea that the whole
thing was a “fake,” and wanting to get
even for having been fooled up town a
WATCHMAN reporter soon proved his
idea by shoving money urder every
one’s nose, who dared to say that the
story was correct, and when no one
would bet, there was evidence of weak-
ness somewhere. So a visit to the
Brockerhoft office, where the rest of the
booty was supposed to have been, re-
vealed the truth that the whole thing
was a lie.
However the story was well worked
up and afforded amusement for-half the
towa, until it was discovered.
Ex County TREASURER GRAMLEY
Has FAILED.— The assignment of ex-
county Treasurer James J. Gramley,
who since his retirement from office
last Jauuary has conducted a grocery
business on south Allegheny street, in
this place, caused no httle comment on
our streets yesterday morning, when it
became known that sheriff Condo had
closed his place of business.
On Wednesday afternoon judgments
aggregating $10,458 36 had been entered
against him, on several of which execu-
tions were issued, causing the suspen-
sion. They were as follows Israel
Kauffman $800, L. W. Wian $667,
John Wagner $1,000, Oliver Wolf and
H. G. Royer $530, Andrew J, Gramley,
$460 and Mary A. Gramley et al $7001.-
36. Besides these judgments there are
two small mortgages against Mr. Gram-
ley, one a dower, together aggregating
$2,386 67 raising his total habilities
to $12,845.03. To offset this he has his
store in this place and two fine farms
ope in Brush Valley, the other near
Nittany, together with considerable farm
stock, equ.pments and other valuable
personal effects.
Just what precipitated the failure is
rather hard to tell as Mr. Gramley’s
credit had never been questioned and
his business here was paying nicely.
In conversation with a prominent bank-
er hereon the matter, he said, “I would
have trusted Mr. Gramley for most any
amount and feel that he will come out
all right.”’—It was unfortunate that
he was unable to disillusion the mind
of the one man who issued on him
for his business will be materially in-
jured now, and if the thing had not been
hurried on so thoughtlessly there would
have been no trouble whatever.

A Rzric or STAGE LINE Days.—Our
veteran editorial friend, H. J. Walters,
Esq., hands us a document which takes
us back 83 years, to the days when the
stage coach was the public carrier along
the newly made roads in this region,
which not many years beforo that was
known as ‘the wilderness.” It is an
original “ Way-bill from Harrisburg to
Alexandria,” dated “May 22, 1810.
The passengers, destinations, etc., are
noted thus :

failed to meet the popular fancy, as they
did last year at the ‘Organ Recital.”
Miss Jennie Gillan the violinist and
Miss Doran the pianist, both played
with a n.asterly technique and a pleas-
ing interpretation to the evident satis-
faction of the audience, for they were ap-
planded with enthusiasm. Indeed the
applause-—continued and extravagant,
was the only objectionable feature of
the evening, not that we object to en-
thusiasm but we always have mercy for
the performers and the unappreciative,
. when the program is ubpusually long
and the house is seven times hotter than
it need be. .
Tur KeNpars.—The announcement
that the accomplished English ariisis,
Mr. and Mrs, Kendal, and their Lon-
don company under the direction of
Daniel Frohman, will visit Williams-
port the first time and present one of
their leading plays, will be received
with unusual interest by our theatre-
goers. - They will make their appear-
ance at the Lycoming opera house, in
Williamsport, Tuesday evening March
20th, in “The Ironmaster.” Mr. and
Mrs. Kendal have earned the applause
of the two great centers of English dra-
matic art and the public favor that was
obtained by the Kendals’ during three
American tours in the principal cities of
the country is well known to all observ-
ers of the stage. It may well be said
that performances such as given by Mr.
and Mrs. Kendal form red letters in the
history of the stage and stow to what
point of enjoyment acting can be
brought, when entrusted to those who
regard their profession as something in-
tended tor the edification and instruc-
tion of their patrons.
The Central Rail-road Co., of Penn- |

evening of the entertainment which will

IMPORANT RAILROAD MEETING .--
We are informed that a public meeting
will be held at the academy at Pine
Grove Mills, on Tuesday evening, the
20th instant, for the pucpose of ascer-
taining whether or not the right of way
can be secured for the extension of the
Bellefonte Central railroad from its
present terminus at Struble’s to Pine
Grove Mills.
This is a most important movement
for the community and for the people
of tke county and we hope it will meet
with entire success. The people of Pine
Grove have been without railroad and
telephone facilities and ought to mani-
fest sufficient interest in the develop-
ment of their region to make this meet.
ing and the results which flow from it
entirely successful. o
We have no doubt whatever that the
citizens of Pine Grove and of Ferguson
township will turn out and do all that
isin their power to help the rail-road in
securing the desired rights. It bas long
been the cry of the people of that end of
the county “give us a rail-road.”” Now
that they have one within their reach
let us see what they will make of the
opportunity.
© WaLTER Burrs’ HOTEL BURNED.—
i Houtzdale had a large fire last Tuesday
afternoon and to-day the Arlington,
one of the leading hotels in the town,
the office of the Houtz heirs and several
adjoining buildings are in ruins. The
fire started in an attic, over the kitchen
of the Arlington hotel, atabout four
o'clock in tue evening and fanned by a
high wind progressed rapidly on its
work of destruction. The Philipsburg
and Osceola fire departments were called
upon and responded promptiy, but be-
fore their arrival the buildings had all
been burned, so they gave their atten-
tion to saving adjoining property.
The Arlington was under the man-
agement of Walter G. Butts, of this
place, who leased it last Fall and had
bwit upa nice trade for it. He left
the employ of Joel J. Bailey & Co. of
Philadelphia, to enter the hotel business
and was on a fair road to success until
this misfortune overtook him. He had
refitted the hotel since taking charge
and having failed to increase his insur-
ance accordingly, his loss will doubtless
be quite heavy. The hotel was owned
by Michael Burns, of Brisbin.

Ww. H. DiLL VINDICATES HIMSELF.
| —Some two years ago the Journal
| stated, by implication, that the failure
| of Wm. H. Dill bad rendered the estate
| of A. H. Dill, of Philadelphia, insol-
| vent because A. H. Dill was a heavy
{ creditor. On February 2nd the account
of Mrs. A. H. Dill, executrix of A. H.
| Dill, deceased, was filed in the Orphans’
Court of Philadelphia county and duly
| audited. Counsel here for Wm. H.
| Dill have shown us a copy of that re-
port, in which it appears that Wm. H.
| Dill was a creditor in the sum of $3,000,
| regularly probated, and $40,000 on a
: note not secured and not presented to
| the auditor. Jona. Boynton cited the
| Executrix to an account, he being a
creditor in the sum of $8,000. The es-
tate was in an insolvent condition and
| paid but five per cent. of the claims,
| which aggregated over $50,000. Wm.
! H. Dill and Jona. Boynton, creditors,
| lost the sums aforesaid. We make this
correction as it is not the desire of the
Journal to state anything but facts.
The account shows just the reverse of
what was intimated in the Journal of
| Sept. 80th, 1891. —Clearfield Raftsman’s
| Journal.
The WaTcaMAN is pleased to learn
that the final settlement of this
trouble bas entirely vindicated Mr.
A. H. Dill. It was loath to believe
the many charges brought against him
when he failed and did not hesitate to
say so atthe lime.

—Chas. T. Noll, manager of the Clearfield

—Mr. and Mrs. Harry Cook, of Woodland,

—A. Scott Harris, of Gallitzin, came down
from that mountain coal town to spend last
Sunday with his parents here. John P. Har.
ris Jr., of Tyrone, his brother, was home for
that day also.
—J. A. Heckendorn, a Karthause merchant
and coal operator, was in town Wednesday
evening attending to some business here. He
is a very pleasant gentleman and one who will
male friends wherever he goes.

hard as a Republican can, to do as he
preaches, the good mayor of Canton would
possibly be more appropriate.

who is known to the literary world as “John of
Laneaster” and among historical people as
“the historian of Lycoming,” was in town on:
Wednesday hob-nobbing with his friend Hon*

surely fly for both are great antiquarions.
