Tre NEW PARK AT HECLA.—A new
and what promises to be a very popular
resort for picnickers will soon be open”
ed on the line of the new Central rail-
road of Pennsylvania in the vicinity of
Hecla furnace. The rail-road company
is now at work getting it in condition
for the enjoyment of pleasure seekers
and it will not be long until the grove
is in first class order.
The points that make this a specially
desirable picnic ground are the fine
wooded, large level area of ground, good
water for drinking, a large dam near by
where outing and bathing can be en-
joyed, its accessibility because the rail-
road runs right through it and its Cen-
tral location on the line.
To add to nature’s attractions for the
out-door pleasure seeker the rail-road
company is erecting a large covered
dance pavilion, a well equipped kitchen,
and many other little structures that
will add to the convenience and beauty
of the grounds.
Though these grounds will have had
picnic parties before that time their
formal opening will not be made until
Thursday, August 9th, when the Logan
Steam Fire Engine Co., of this place, will
hold its annual picnic there. The fire-
men are preparing to give their guests a
gorgeous time and will doubtless not
disappoint any one. They have secured
a band and orchestra to furnish music
during the entire day and a number of
novel athletic contests have been ar-
ranged for the program.
The Logan’s steamer will be taken
down and set to work so that all may
see a high class fire engine in operation,
and the many other features that go to
make these picnics such a yearly suc-
cess will not be missing.
Remember the day and date, Thurs”
day, August 9th, and thatthe benefits
will be given to the Logans to help pay
the balance due on their engine. All
you will need do is put on your hat and
go. The firemen will do the rest. They
will furnish all the refreshments and a
good time into the bargain. You are
not to understand from this, however,
that you cannot take a basket, for it is
thespecial desire of the firemen that
everyone who wants to shall taka a
basket and with his entire family enjoy
the day at the Park. - The Logans have
gone to the trouble of making expen--
sive preparations and they want every-
one to go and enjoy the day with them.
Young and old alike. The round trip
fare will be only 25cts from Bellefonte
and a correspondingly low rate from all
other points along the line.
A TELEPHONE FOR STORMSTOWN.—-
On Tuesday Dr. Thos. Tobin and I. G.
Burkett, of Stormstown, were in this
place soliciting subscriptions to the fund
with which the residents of Stormstown
hope to connect themselves with the
world. They have never had a rail-
road, telephone or telegraph line and
are making strenuous efforts now to
build a telephone of their own.
It1s proposed to build a line from
Stormstown to Blair bank, where it will
connect with the telephone line in opera-
tion on the Bellefonte Central rail-road
and thus reach the exchange here. The
telephone company has agreed to equip
it if the people of that place will build
the two and one half miles of line nec-
essary. This they are doing now and
many poles have already been planted
80 that ere long the metropolis of Half-
moon township will have speaking ac-
quaintance, at least, with the outside
world.
The subscriptions to the fund have
been quite generous and the line will be
built without particular burden to any-
one. It is likely that two ’phones will
be put in operation. One will be loca-
ted in one of the stores up there, while
the other Dr. Tobin will have in his
house. The reason that community has
never had telephone service is because
the number of patrons would never be
large enough to justify the telephone
company in the building of that 2}
miles of line or mzintaining it, but now
that the home people are furnishing the
money they are going to have it at last.
SAMUEL CHERRY.—A well known
locomotive engineer died at his home on
Valentine street, this place, on Sunday
morning, July Ist, of fatty degenera-
tion of the heart. For years he had run as
a passenger engineer between this place
and Montandon and was one of the best
known men on the road.
He had been ill about two weeks pre.
vious to his death, but seemed to be re-
covering when the vital cord was snap-
ped and his spirit fled its earthly tene-
ment.
Deceased was 57 years, 5 months and
12 days old and leaves a widow, with
two sons and a daughter to mourn his
death.
Funeral services were held Thursday
morning, interment having been made
in the Union cemetery.

kindly comforted them in their time of
bereavement.

——The farmers aro sending upa
complaint thatlabor is scarce in the
rural districts. This is not a surprising
state of affairs, for the same trouble
arises every year, notwithstanding there
are thousands of unemployed loafing
about our centres of industry. It seems
that the average working man would
rather starve than earn a dollar a day
and good board in a harvest field.

——TFriday, June 22nd, was a gala
day at the home of Mt. and
Mis. Jerry Sharer near Port Matilda.
The crowning feature of the occasion
was the reception given the neighbors
who gathered together, over fifty in
number, to assist Mr. Sharer in raising
a new barn on the site of the one re-
cently destroyed by fire. Mrs, Shaver
and daughter, assisted by Mrs. Media
Johnson and Miss Nora B. Way, of
Port Matilda, were chiefs in the cook-
A BarLnLooNy MaxN.—The Williams-
port Sun tells of the peculiar condition
of Burns Hovey, & lumberman, who is
in the hospital there for treatment as '
follows :
“Burns Hovey, the woodsman injured |
at Dent’s run on Thursday has devel
oped into an extraordinary case. His
injury was caused by being hit on the
breast by the limb of a tree, which frac-
tured several ribs, one of which punc-
tured a lung. The Sun has stated that
he was puffed up like a balloon from his
chest clear up to the eyes, but that was
nothing compared to the manner in
which he swelled Friday afternoon
and night.
He is a little man, probably not
weighing over 130 pounds, but by Fri-
day night he looked as if he weighed 300.
Every part of his skin, from the top ot
his bead to the tips of his toes, was
puffed up like a balloon and as tight as
adrum. Hovey was in bad shape and
could not talk. To relieve him Dr.
Nutt punctured his chest, when the air
rushed out with a whistling sound,
and the poor fellow felt better. He is
still greatly puffed to-day, but may pos-
sibly pull through.
This puffing of the skin is the result
of his being able to inhale air into the
lungs, but not being able to exhale it
again through the mouth or nose, and
consequently it has to go some place, so
the air finds its way into the cells im-
mediately under the cuticle, and the re-
sult can readily be imagined. The
cause is the punctured lung. There is
always this condition when a lung is
punctured, but generally in a mild de-
gree. Dr. Nutt says this is the worst
case he ever saw, the puffing being so
general, and it the man gets well it will
be remarkable.
Built A Loap or HAY Ar THIR-
TEEN.—It is not often that one hears of
a little girl becoming a practical and
skillful farmer yet Henry Norris, who
lives about a mile west of Fillmore, has
a thirteen year old daughter who, in
one respect, 1s far more of one than
many men.
Last week she helped her father take
in hay and so well did she build the hay
onto the wagon ladders that not one
mishap occurred in transporting the en-
tire crop from the field to the barn.
Oae load that she built was hauled all
the way to this place, a distance of sev-
en miles, over rough roads, and looked |
just as square and pretty when seen on
the streets here as it it had just come out
of the field.
While work in the field is not exactly
a woman's calling, yet it is nevertheless
an accomplishment for them to know
all about such things, especially the
girl on the farm who will some day
make a helpful” wife for one of the
young husbandmen of the land.
Tue Horse Broke Its Back.—On
Monday afternoon Geo. Runkle, who
drives one of Sechler & Co’s, grocers,
delivery wagons, met with a mishap
that might have caused him serious in-
jury, but fortunately he escaped though
the horse he was driving at the time is
dead.
He was engaged in hauling rubbish
out to the public dumping ground be-
yond the poor house, where all inorgan-
ic matter is thrown over the hillside to
the old dam bottom. He had just fin-
ished unloading his wagon and was try-
ing to turn around, but the road being
very narrow his horse backed too far
and it with the wagon and driver fell
backwards over the fifteen foot embank-
ment. Runkle jumped and escaped
with a sprained ankle, but the horse fell
clear over the wagon and broke its
back. It was an old. though very good
animal, and had to be chloroformed to
end its sufterings.
A Gara DAY AT Porr.—The jolliest
day. the people of Port Matilda ever en-
joyed was the picnic which the new
band held in Beckwith’s woods, near
that place, on July 4th. All the Sun-
day schools had been invited and at-
tended making it the largest crowd ever
gathered on a similar occasion in that
vicinity.
Rev. Kreamer, Aaron Williams Hsq.
and Ellis Orvis Ezq. of this place, made
speeches, while county recorder Morri-
son circulated among the people making
fan wherever he went. To the ladies
is due much of the success of the picnic,
for their arrangement of it was about
perfect.
A Losxa Ripg.--On Monday morn-
ing Mr. F. H. Cota, the secretary of

HE 1s A SWINDLER.—A man repre-
senting himself as an agent for a Michi-
gan plow company is traveling over the
country selling sulky plows to farmers
at double prices and taking notes for the
same on the understanding that one-
half the amount be boarded out at the
rate of one dollar a day. If the farmer
wishes to pay in ten days he is to have
eight per cent. discount. The agent also

tended the fourth of July celebration at
Mill Hall and was not heard of again
until Friday morning when he was
found along the rail-road track, near
Howard, with his right foot badly
crushed and a deep gash in his head.
No explanation of his plight can be giv-
en but it is supposed that he either fell
from a moving train or was struck
while asleep on the track. His foot had
to be amputated.
——The great strike is causing a rise
in the price of meat and California fruits

cents per pound. We have not suffered
any here yet, but there is no telling how
soon a raise may strike Bellefonte.
