TaE HEAVIEST SNOW IN YEARS. —
| April is not at all an unusual thing, in
fact many of our older people will not
believe that Spring has surely come un-
| til they see a few flakes—‘just to take
| Bat a snow like we have just exper-
| fenced is a decidedly rare occurrence,
! and the rarer the better too.
On last Saturday a few inches of snow
fell and those who profess to bank on
their opinions in such matters thought
that ended the snow business for this
season, but notwithstanding the sun
coming out bright and warm, the wind
continued raw and on Monday evening
it clouded up again. It tried to rain,
but it was too cold. So on Tuesday
morning snow began falling. All day
Tuesday and up until Wednesday eve-
ning there was a steady fall and when
it stopped twenty-two inches had fal-
len.
the depth would possibly have reached
three feet.
The snow seems to have been general,
east of the Alleghenies, all along the
Atlantic sea-board there was a terrific
storm, many lives were lost at sea, rail-
road traffic entirely suspended and tele-
graph wires broken in every direction.
Through New York state from two to
three feet feil and in the northeastern
parts of this State a high wind drifted
it to great depths. Many roofs gave
way under the wet blanket of snow and
considerable - loss will be entailed
throughout this county. The old paint
shop au the car works was one of the
buildings wrecked in this place.
The storm revived memories of snow
fulls in former years and some of our
older residents remember the great snow
ot April 17th, 1854, when twenty-seven
inches fell. C. M. Bower Esq., in talk-
ing of that day, recalled the way his
fatber’s farm barn was filled with birds
that bad sought shelter therein. He
remembers having fed them screenings
and we would’nt Jike to tell you just
how many Mr. Bower thought there
were there, for fear you would’nt be-
lieve it. The birds about here have
been greatly affected by the storm and
in many instances have sought food and
shelter in houses.
A memorandum shows that twelve
inches of snow fell on April 18th, 1887.
BUDDINGER'S STORE AT SNOW SHOE
ScorCHED.—At about half past 8
o’clock, on Monday evening, fire was
discovered in a ware room attached to
T. B. Buddinger’s store in Snow Shoe.
Tbe flames had gained such headway
before their discovery that the portion
of the building in which they origina-
ted was beyond saving. From there
they spread to an adjoining ware room,
which communicated with the general
store building. The lack of any organi-
zed means to fight the fire made the out
look very gloomy, but the heroic efforts
of the citizens, who turnad out at once,
saved the main building from destruc-
tion, They tere down one of the small
buildings and then the flames died oug
from want of more to consume.
Mr. Buddioger, tha owner, was in
New York at the time and Mr. O. J.
Harm, the manager, feels'deeply indebt-
ed to the peopla ot Snow Shoe, who so
kindly lent their assistance to the eav-
ing of hisemployer’s property. As it was
the loss will aggregate $2,600, but bad
the flames once found their way into
the main building nothing would have
saved the immense stock, which is
valued at nearly $25000. The loss is
covered by insurance.
The Snow Shoe bucket brigade which
is under the leadership of John G. Uz-
zle turned out in full torce and did ettec-
tive work. Mr. Uzzle seems always to
be at the head of every good move in
that place and his little fire company is
thoroughly appreciated.
SoME PECULIARITIES OF THE CAL-
ENDAR.—An exchange has compiled
the following peculiarities which are to
be found in the calendar :
*‘The calendar offers certain curiosities
which are little known. The following
ara a few of them : No century can
commence on a Wednesday, Friday or
Saturday. The month of October al-
ways commences on the same day of the
week as the month of January ; Februa-
ry, March and November commence on
the same day of the week, whereas May,
June and August commence on different
days. These rules do not apply to leap
years. The ordinary year is always fin-
ished on the same day of the week
when it commenced. The years repeat
themselves--that is to say, they have
the same calendar every 28 years.”
Mgs. JosepH's DraTH.—On Satur-
day evening, about six o'clock, Mrs.
Barbetta Joseph, mother of the well
known merchants of this place, died
after an illness of a little more than a
week. She had been stricken with par-
alysis and at her advanced age recovery
was impossible. Deceased was 82 years
of age and came to this country from
Germany, about fifteen years ago. Since
then she had lived with her children in
the home adjoining their place of busi-
ness on Allegheny street. Funeral ger-
vices were held on Monday afternoon,
Rev. G. Levy, of Williamsport, officiat-
ed. Four children survive her. They
are Josephine, Mrs. H. Holtz, Emil and
Sigismund.

isences of War Life in, and Escape

member of one of its oldest families the
sons of which have all gained considera-
ble prominence in their various profes”
sions.
It is the aim of the students to make
foot-ball next season more popular than
everand to accomplish such an end
there must be sufficient funds in hand
when the Fall term opens
the proper training of the team.
Tke lecture will be interesting be-
cause it will be delivered by a man
whom we all know of. Prices of ad.
mission will be 50 and 85 cents. The
lecture will begin at 8 o'clock.
A special train will leave this place
o’clock, stopping at all points along the
line. A reception will be given at the

A SrtroNe TEMPERANCE OBJECT
LEssoN.--'Squire Patton has a bottle of
beer in his office which was taken from
the pocket of an Italian who was killed
on the rail-road, at this place, several
months ago. He has offered the bottle
of beer to a score or more of persons
without money or any other considera-
tion, than simply to take it away, but
not one has accepted the offer, and the
’Squire is likely to keep the bottle for an
indefinite period. The bottle is sealed
and the beer is just as good as any other
beer that is sold in the saloon, but the
thought that it was taken from a dead
man’s body is repugnant to the taste,
and nobody wants it. The other day
the squire offered it to a person known
to be inordinately fond of beer. He took
the bottle in his hand, and was about to
put it in his pocket, when the squire re-
lated the circumstances under which he
obtained the beer, but before he fin-
ished the story the man handed the bot-
tle back and with a look of disgust re-
marked that he didn’t want it. That
bottle of beer should be presented to
some temperance society to be used as
an object lesson to demonstrate the fact
that while liquor does kill people, nobody
wants to drink liquor found on a dead
man’s body.— Huntingdon News.
Wire Haynes Wears THE Dia-
MOND. —Tae sportsmen at Snow Shoe
had a great time on Monday afternoon
shooting at glass balls. John G. Uazzle
arranged a shooting match and put up,
as a trophy, his $250 diamond pin,
which has dazzled nearly every one who
has ever met the unique hotel keeper.
Of course when there was such a
valuable stake the marzsmen were all
on their mottleand a large crowd of
spectators assembled to see the shoot.
The balls were thrown from an or-
dinary spring trap and the contestants
stoud off a distance of thirty yards. The
best out of twanty-five was hs pre-ar
ranged work so the sport began and re-
sulted in the following scores:
John G. Uazzle .... 16 out of 25
Dr. J Burd... .... 21 ....25
Guo. B. Uzzle. . «iv. 2 ee. 25
W. RB. Haynes'o'.'. ....28.... 20
Geo. Uzzle came very near winning
his father’s handsome pin, but Will
Haynes went him just one be ter and
now sports the big star shaped cluster
of dinmonds which is brilliant enough
to do duty as a headlight on a locomo-
tive.
How Pro:PecTIVE PENSIONERS
Must PRoCEED.— Bellefonte pension
acents have received a circular contain-
ing the tollo #ing directions as to signa
tures and witnesses: “The pension cer-
tificate must be exhibited at the execu-
tion of each and every voucher. When
a pensioner signs a mark, two witnesses
who can write are required in the body
of the voucher, and one witness who can
write in each of the duplicates. When
the pensioner writes his name, no wit-
ness to his signature is necessary in the
body of the voucher; but his signature
in each of the duplicate receipts must be
witnessed by a person who can write
his own name. The magistrate before
whom a voucher is presented is not
a competent witness in any case, except
that such magistrate may witness in the
duplicate receipts the signature of a
pensioner who writes his own name.
The post office address of the pensioner
must be plainly written in the body of
the voucher.” :

postponed until Friday, ‘April 27th, It

ArrorNeYy WM. Bryson Deap.—
The news that Wm. Bryson Esq, had
died at his hume in Philipsburg yester-
day afterncon was received with regret
in this place. He had been suffering for
weeks with an ailment like grip, .in its
effects. At times he would be apparent
ly very well, then a relapse would ren-
der his survival almost hopeless. Until
yesterday noon he seemed to be getting
better, but a sinking spall ended in his
death soon after.
Deceased was a practicing attor-
ney, a man of considerable mental ab-
ity, and leaves a widow and cne
daughter. Mrs. Bryson, nee Miss Lucy

ler, of this place.
THE EAGLE ANNIVERSARY.—
Bellefonte castle, No. 857, Knights of
the Golden Eagle, celebrated the fourth
anniversary of its inception, on Tues-
day evening, by appropriate services.
The Sir Herald, of the Suprema Castle
of the Order, was here and addressed
the assemblage. Under his direction
the home castle conferred Knight's de-
gree on several applicants.
The speech of the Sir Herald was
largely statistical, but interesting to the
many who listened to it. In the four
years of the existence of the home castle
it has steadily grown until now it has
one hundred and fifty members and a
neat little balance to its credit of $1,000,
in addition to $500 invested in para-
phernalia. During the four years, the or-
der has increased its membership in
Pennsylvania over ten thousand mem-
bers, and in the United States it has in-
creased over twenty thousand. The
number of Castles in the State has in-
creased from 3857 to 490. The member-
shipin Centre county amounts to nearly
if not altogether, one thousand mem-
bers.

THE LATEST SwINDLE. — Cambria
county exchanges send out the follow-
ing warning of a good swindle that has
been working that community for some
time,
A man weil dressed with a business
like air, called upon persons in the rural
districts and represented himsell as a
government detective, with the state-
ment that there was much counterfeit
coin in circulation and requested them
to show what coin they had in their
possession. He would then use a chemi-
cal, which would turn the coins black,
declare it spurious and take it away, in-
forming them that another secret service
officer would follow, him in a day or
two and redeem the coin taken away.
The victims said nothing about it for
some time out of fear of being arrested
for having counterfeit coin in their
posession, and by this time the swin-
dler is far away.
Tur SprING AssEMBLY.—The Sen-
ior class of The Pennsylvania State

WHEN He Sess Her, On My.—
Says a Harrisburg special of April 4:
A long journey to meet her intended
husband, whom she never saw, was be-
gun to-day by Miss Alice Yingst, of
Sand Beech, this county. Sheis one of
the largest women 1n this part of the
State, weighing 838 pounds. She is 26
years old and several months ago an-
swered a matrimonial advertisement
signed by Harry Cratzer, of Ceceurd,
Alene, Idaho. The two courted by
mail, he proposed and she accepted. He
sent her $100 to pay the expenses of her
trip West, as he could not come East for
his intended bride. She is now on the
way to the far northwest to meet her
lover.
