Tae VETERANS AND THEIR Picnic. —Saturday, September 1st, was an au- spicious day for tke Veteran club re- union and thousands of people journey- ed to Hunter's park to enjoy it with the old soldiers. Every train was crowded and by noon those who had feared the attendance would be less than in pre- vious years had every reason to recon- struct their ideas concerning the love Centre countains must have for pienics. It was labor day, however, and that fact helped swell the crowd quite ma” teriaily. After dinner a business meeting of the club was called. Gen. Beaver, presiding, appointed the following committees for the ensuing year : On officers—S. H. Williams, chair- wun; Wm. Eminhizer, Thos. Taylor, € Dale, Jr., A. V. Miller, Geo. Martz, W. H. Fry, Andrew Gregg, J. I. Cur- tin. D. Burrell, M. M. Musser, W. J* Thuompson, W. 8S. Williams, S. H. Ben- nizon. Simon Sellers, Geo. Long, W. E. Tate, J. A. Daily, James Kribbs, J.

Patterson, Lot Struble, J. D. Long, John W. Stuart, Wm. Grenoble, Simcn Bathgate, George Boal, J. I. Condo and ©. P. Stonerode. The former committee reported the selection of the following officers : President, Gen. James A. Beaver ; vice presidents, Geo. M. Boal and Wm. C. Patterson ; secretary, John C. Hil- ler ; treasurer, John Hamilton. The president to have power to name the executive committee. The committee on place of meeting for next year reported Hunter's purk, which report was adopted. Treasurer Curtin read his report which was as follows: Balance in treasury Sept. 1892 — $510.92 Receipts up to Sept. 1893 - — — 21.75 $532.67 21.65 Total amount Expenditures Balance in treasury Sept. 1898 $511.02 Under the head of miscellaneous busi- ness David F. Fortney read the follow- ing resolutions which were adopted: Waearse, The citizens of Centre county and our Weteran Club have, at sundry times heretofore, made eftorts looking toward the erection of-a monument to commemorate the part taken by Centre county in the war of the rebellion, Axp wmsress, In consequence of more pressing concerns crowding upon the atten- tion of our people, the desire and the thought of many has not heretofore been consum- mated, Axp wernzts, The Veteran Club ef Centre county now has in its treasury over $300 which could ba devoted to that purpose and citizens of the country closely connected te our club are desirous of contributing toward such a fund, provided the movement be commenced and carried to completion at once. Axp wreErzas, Centre county owes to the memory of her dead and to the commemora- tion of the efforts of those who live to see that a suitable monument is erected at a central place which will commemorate the part taken by her sons and especially by her eminent citizen, Hon. Andrew G.Curtin, then the gov, ernor of this commonwealth, in the grea struggle for supremacy of law and the main- tenance of the union. Now, therefore be it Resolved, By the Veteran Club of Centre county, in annual meeting assembled. First—That the balance in the treasury amounting to $512.02, as shown by the repor® of the treasurer, be and the same is hereby appropriated to the erection of a monument to commemorate the part taken by the soldiers of Centre county and the war Governor of the commonwealth in the suppression of seces. sions, provided that a fund of at least ten thousand ($10,000) dollars be bona fide sub- scribed for that purpose. Second—That a committee of twenty-five of the members of this club and of an equal number of citizens, not connected with the club, be appointed by the president of the club, representing all parts of Centre county, to solicit subscriptions and carry forward the work of erection of a monument as herein set forth to final consummation. Third—That, in the judgment of the Vet- eran Club, the monument should embody as one of its prominent features a statue of Hon, Andrew G. Curtin, the war Governor of the commonwealth, so that his services to the State may be perpetuated in connection with the monument to our dead heroes. This ended the regular business of the day, but before the meeting adjourned addresses were made by Cap’t. William Hayes, of Clinton county ; Prof. E. J. Sparks, of State College; F. J. Smull of Clinton county ; Cap’t. William Michaels, of Lock Haven ; and Aaron Williams Esq, of Bellefonte. In ad- dition to these patriotic talks Miss M. Thomas recited a poem of her own com- position which pleased the veterans im- mepsely. The meeting then adjourned. AND THE BICYCLE RACES ON THE ATH- LETIC FIELD BEGAN. The Bellefonte Wheelmens’ club had called a meeting for that day and all the 1acers of this county, with several from a distance, were there to compete for the valuable prizes offered by the club.

Already they are beginning to report marked increases in freight traffic and one day last week the Pennsylvania rail-road made the largest movement of freight ever recorded on its middle divi- sion. On that day five thousand six hun- dred cars were hauled, east or west, be- tween Altoona and Harrisburg. ScmorieLp WILL BE THERE.--It will only be a short time now until the grangers meet for their week's outing at Grange park, Centre Hall, to enjoy camp life with one another and see what is to be seen in the way of exhibits. James Schofield, proprietor of Belle- fonte’s big harness establishment, intends to make a fine display at the picnic. He will have harness of every kind on ex- line of whips, robes, blankets and all the novelties pertaining to the trade. He is determined that home industry shall eclipse any foreign exhibit and to that end you may leok for a fine display by Schofield. Sor NEAR & CENTRE HALL CHICKEN Coop.—Jacob From, who lives near Centre Hall, is carrying his arm in a sling, the result of having been found making Samuel Rowe's chickens cackle at a late hour Monday night. For some time the people of Centre Hali have been missing chickens, garden truck and other articles, but not until Monday night did any one try to ap- prehend the thief. Then Samuel Rowe decided te keep on the watch. About midnight he heard a racket at his chicken coop andarmed with a revolver he wen t out to see who was there. He saw a man, who, when discovered, attempted an attack on him. Rowe fired in self de- fense and the marauder fled. About? o'clock in the morning Dr. Jacobs was called to dress two bullet wounds in the wrist and arm of Jacob From. Both were flesh wounds, no bones being broken, and the man is getting along ail right. He acknow- ledged as to how he had been shot but claimed that he had been looking for his horse which kad broken out of his lot. The ? First to Pay. BELLEFONTE, Aug. 29,94. MR. Wy. GRAUER, District Agent Mutual Life Insurance Com- pany, of New York : DEAR Siz :—Allow me to thank you and your company for the promptnessin settling the loss on the life of my husband, Colonel D.S. Keller ; proofs of death were forwarded August 18th, and checks for $11,009.00 handed me to-day in full. Whenever an cpportunity oceurs I shall always speak a good word for the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York. Respectfully, M. E. R. KELLER. Pine Grove Mentions. Mrs. Wm. Markel who has been serious. ly ill for the last few weeks is slowly improving. The drouth still continues, and the farmers are forced to wait for rain as the soil is not fit to seed. From this section scarcely a corporal’s guard of old veterans will attend the ma- tional G. A. R. Encampment at- the Smoky City, next week. The friends and associates of Master J. C. Keichline will be sorry to learn of his misfortune in loosing two fingers by com- ing in contact with a circular saw, soon after he returned home from his visit hereabouts. Master Homer Walker, little son of A. 8S. Walker had quite a narrow escape lately. While passing behind a young horse it kicked at him wickedly just missing his face, but it struck his ear, cut. ting it clear off close to his head. Mr. J. Fred Meyers will go to Philadel- phia next week to consult an oculist about his eye, while there he will stop at the Jefferson Hospital, so that if an operation is necessary he will be in good hands. If he undergoes one, we trust it will be successful and that his sight may be restored. Mrs. Rebecea, wife of James Duftord died at their home on Water st., on Satur- day the lst inst. at 3 o'clock. She will long be held in sweet remembrance on account of her gentle disposition, her quiet and consistent Christian character. Kind in her intercourse with all and with a heart filled with love for the Mas- ter. Her going out from her family and friends has created a void which , time cannot fill. The bereaved family | have the sympathy of every one. Her husband and three small children, one | but a few days old mourn her untimely | death at the age of 38 years, She was a member of the M. E. church. Revs. Aik- | ens and Forest officiated at her burial Interment was made at Pine Hall ceme- tery on the 2nd inst. at 2 o'clock p. m. Mr. James Harpster thought his time had come last Monday, and indeed he was fortunate in coming out as well as he did. He was driving a young horse | which took fright at a passing lumber team and started to run away. Mr. Harpster was able to guide the animal until he met Mrs. J. M. Kepler's buggy when there was a general upset and wreck. Mr, Harpster was thrown to the ground and dragged quite a distance be- | fore he could extricate himself, and with the exception of a few bruises and scratches was not hurt. The next day as | he was driving the horse home hitched to the buggy which had just come from the shop, the horse started again but fortu- nately Mr Harpster was able to hold on and finally the horse wes checked on Dr. | Woods porch, with no one hurt but a bad- ly damaged buggy. Half Rates to Pittsburg, Pa., on Ac- count of the National Encamp- ment of the Grand Army of the Republic. The Pennsylvania Railroad announ- ces that excursion tickets will be sold at half rates, September 6th to September 10th, good to return until September 25th, with & minimum rate of fifty cents. Itis expected that this will be the largest Grand Army Encampment that has ever been held, from the fact that the name of Pittsburg is remember- ed by every veteran, as it was the first city to establish a Subsistence Commit- tee. The following program has been adopted by the Citizens Executive Com- mittee : ’ MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 10TH, Parade of the Naval Veterans, escorted by the Sons of Veterans.

Judge Bucher Withdraws from the Democratic Ticket as Candidate for Congress.man-at- Large, FE aRrRrIsBURG, Sept. 4.—Ex-Judge Joseph C. Bucher, of Lewisburg, filed to-night with the Secretary of the Commonwealth his withdrawal as a candidate for Congressman-at-large on the Democratic State ticket. This makes it necessary for the Democratic State convention, which meets next Tuesday, to nominate two candidates for Congressmen-at-Large. No one knows who will be selected, but Edwin Graw Flaonigan, of Philadelphia ; Henry Meyer and William Weihe, of Allegheny, and Col. James Ellis, of Schulkill are being mentioned as pos- sible nominees. Tom Platt Favors Morton. New York, Sept. 4.—The Mail and Express to-day publishes an interview with Hon. T. C. Platt in which he says he favors Levi P. Morton’s nomination for governor, because he believes him to be the strongest candidate with the peo- ple. As to the question of age, John A. Dix was five years older than Mr. Morton when first nominated for gov- ernor. As for Mr. Fassett, Mr. Platt would like to see him governor, but de- sires party success more. Mr. Fassett’s hour, he says, however, will surely come later. New Advertisements. OST.—At Hecla Park, a Keystone Locket containing portraits.

My eyes are straight once more, and the eye that heretofore was almost totally blind, I can again see splendidly with. Somerset, Pa. Mary E. LoNGe_ Four of the Best Doctors mn the County Said ‘She Was Incurable, But Dr. Salm Made a Healthy Woman of Her.— For over 5 years I have been suffering with Heart trouble and a bad case of Dropsy. We went to 4 of the best Doctors in the County for relief, but all of them said a cure was im- possible. At times I felt so bad that I was certain I had to die, I fainted away very often and my friends told me afterwards that they thought every moment would be my last. And I hereby affirm that had it not been for the splendid treatment received from Dr, Salm, who has entirely cured me of that great trou- ble, I would have been under the sod long ago. Sapik I. Ross. Leechburg, Pa., Armstrong Co. Attestea by her Husband, Henry T. Ross. . A Peculiar Affection of the Legs Cured by Dr Salm.— For the last 10 years our son had the most peculiar affection of both legs. They became covered with scabs and scales. They oozed out considerable secretion, and the disease troubled him constantly, even interupted his sleep on account of the terrible itching. We tried the best Doctors in our County and near by, without any results. None ot them made the correct diagnosis, until we brought him to Dr. Salm, who diagnosed the diseas=- as a scrofulous affection; and as a result of his treatment he has succeeded in making a per- fect cure in the time he stated. We believe he understands his business, and hence we do not hesitate to recommend him to our Citizens. Hyndman, Pa. Frep 8. Cook. Cancer Cured by Dr. Salm.— For some time I have suffered from un ugly looking cancerous growth on the ct-~t. Doc: tors here pronounced it Cancer, and 11d they could not do me any good. Dr. Salm ha- cored me in short order, without using the knife or caustics and only an insignificant scar i= a!i that is left of the heretofore ugly and painful growth Somerset, Pa. Evr1zABETH MUELLER. I Could Not, Nor Would I Have Wanted to Live Much Longer in the Plight I was In.— _For some time I have suffered terribly with Kidney and inward trouble 6 different Doctors treated me for inflammation of the Bowels &c. I grew worse and worse, had to get up about every half hour to void urine. The pain was most excrutiating and I am certain I could not nor would not wanted to have lived much longer in the plight I was in, Particularly as there did not seem a spot on my body that did not ache most terribly. My bowels were always in a bad condition, so I conciuded that I would call in Dr. Salm of whom I had heard so much. He diagnosed my disease as being a result of Kidney, Stomach and Inward trou- ble, I had not taken his medicines a week be- fore I felt the benefit, and to day after a course of treatment I can do ny own work, after not having been able to hardly move about. . Mgs. C. YINKLEY, No. 221 South St. Johnstown, Pa. Suffered With Catarrh, Bronchitis and General Trouble for 16 Years But was Cured by_Dr. Salm.— For the last 16 years I have been suffering with Catarrh, Bronchitis and general trouble. I took cold very easily then I became choked upin my chest and I could hardly breathe. My lungs became badly affected, lost flesh rapidly, and altered in looks amazingly. In fact it went from bad to woise continually. Tried different kinds of medicines, but with- out effect. After a course of treatment with Dr. Salm I am once more a well woman, do not take cold any more, and can rest and eat splendidly. In fact my neighbors tell me that I look 10 years younger, and I can assure you I feel that way, thanks to the Doctor's wonder- ful cure of my case. Wilmore, Pa. Spinal and Brain Trouble Cured by Dr. Salm (A Wonderful Case.)— Our boy became suddenly affected with Spinal trouble, and it was but ashort time be- fore he had lost almost the entire use of his legs. Of course we became very much alarmed and worried about him, particularly as the 4 physicians we consulted told us there was no help for him, but Dr. Salm has agaiv done a wonderful piece of work, for he ea again use his limbs as well as ever, and he i cured of a terrible disease by this wonderf Physiciav after 4 of our best Drs. had pr nounced his case incurable.
