ves t'The Spider and the Fly,” Lea-
vitt’s spectacular vaudeville production,
that comes to Garman’s Monday even-
ing, October 8th, is one of the best book-
ings of the season. There are pretty
girls—lots of them —and men, all artists
in their lines, who will put a very pleas-
ing entertainment on the boards that
night. This company is known as one
of the big ones on the road and the fact
that it has been out a number of years
is evidence that it is good. For if the
show was not all itis advertised to be
such a large company would have been |
stranded long ago.
Two Frres IN ONE NIGHT.—At a
few minutes after eight o'clock, Tues-
day evening, the South ward fire alarm
was sounded. There being a great
many people on the street at the time
there was a general rush for Cherry
alley, the upper end of which seemed
to be all ablaze. The fire was located
in Haag’s hotel stable, a large frame
structure which burned with frightful
fury. The fact that it was started on
the second floor of the barn is all that
saved the live stock underneath for the
fire swept the structure with lightning
rapidy. A small stable on the rear of
Baum’s lot was licked up and the flames
swept across the alley to. Cap’t Henry
Montgomery's stable which was badly
damaged before the water was gotten to
good working.
The fire was undoubtedly of incen-
diary origin as there had been no one
near the Haag place since early in the
evening. It started near the double
doors on the alley and looked very
much as if some one had just thrown a
match in among the hay, the looseness
of the hook on the door making it possi-
ble to slide it open several inches. There
was nothing in the Baum stable and no
insurance was held on it. Haag’s barn
contained 14 tons of hay, 150 bundles ot
long straw, 140 bushels of oats, 40
bushels of corn and some harness that
was not gotten out. The loss is covered
by policies aggregating $2,800. He had
$2,000 on the barn, $500 on its contents
and $300 on a small adjoining stable.
The buildings were new and in excel-
lent condition. Mr. Haag intends re-
building at once. He will erect a brick
stable with a slate roof.
At 2:50 the same night a second
alarm of fire was sent in, this time it
was found to be in a number of frame
stables on the rear of Spring street prop-
erties owned by the Powers’. E. L.
Powers had two stables on the rear of
his lot which were joined by an open
carriage shed. In the corner of this
shed was a pile of shavings he used for
bedding and it was there that the fire
started. It burned so fast that he had
barely —barely is a good word under the
circumstances—time to get his horse
out. The fire spread to the frame stable
on the rear of the Sands property on Al-
legheny street and all three were in
ruins in a very short time. The Pow-
ers stables were filled with feed ani as
the owner had no insurance his loss will
be considerable. The Sands stable was
empty and uninsured also.
The first fire afforded an excellent
opportunity to study the inefficiency of
our water supply. With one plug
broken, another from which no water
would flow on account of a broken main,
and the loss of time running from one
place to the other the entire east end of
Bishop street might have been burned be-
fore the firemen could get water on. Then
had there been a wind to sweep the
flames on out among those frame houses
they would have all been burned as
there is not enough water on that street
to supply one line of hose. A 8 inch
main is too smull a pipe to run out that
street and it should be replaced with
one double the size. Something that
will give residents protection in the
case of fire and plenty of water for do-
mestic purposes. Itis a well known
fact that they never have as much
water as they can use.
THE ARMOR WILL CAsE —Oa Mon-
day the supreme court, at Philadelphia,
reversed the action of both president
and associate judges of this county in
the matter of Monroe Armor, represent-
ing the heirs, in an effort to set aside
their mother’s will on the ground of
mental incapacity. David Butts had
been appointed her trustee and was the
defendant in the case. The case was
tried in the courts here and the supreme
court several times.
In the first place Judge Furst grant-
ed an issue to determine whether de-
cedent was mentally capable of making
a will, but refused one on the ground
of undue influence. The heirs appealed
to the supreme court, which reversed
Judge Furst and granted an issue on
both. The case was tried here and the
verdict set aside the will. A new trial
was granted, but then Judge Furst is-
sued a decree setting aside the finding
of the jury and ruled that the will
should stand. The associates then filed
an opinion over-ruling Judge Furst and
reinstated the verdict and set aside the
will. And Judge Furst, not to be out-
done, then set aside the ruling of the as-
sociates and reinstated the will. The
associates again over-ruled the president
judge and to prevent any further fool-
ishness an appeal was carried to the su-
preme court, a decision having been
reached on Monday. It strikes out all
action on the case since the motion for a
new trial and directs that proceedings
be begun there again, It is thought,
however, that this will be refused and
judgement entered upon the verdict for
plaintiffs. Should this be done Mr.
Butts can then appeal to the supreme
court again.

——The great shaft of the Berwind-
White coal mining company, near Du-
Boise, is flooded for the third time with-
in a year.
——The Catholic congregation of
Bellefonte is preparing to hold a bg
fair in the new ‘Temple Court” some-
time next month.
——The advertisements in this week’

——The sessions of the Lutheran
Synod concluded at Lewistown, with
the last Sunday’s services, to meet in
1895, at Mifflin. Among the speakers
for next year we notice that Rev. Ed.
Hoshour, of this place, has been ap-
pointed to preach the Missionary ser-
mon.
——Lock Haven council has adopted
an ordinance that will exact a license
for every dray wagon, passenger hack,
telephone, telegraph or electric light
pole, forall public carriers and de-
livery wagons to be found on the streets
of that place. The steam heat company
will be asked to pay $50 per annum for
the use of the streets for its pipes.
——The much tried Armor will case
has been acted upon by the Supreme
court again. A telegram from Phila.
on Monday is to the effect that the court
there had reversed all judgements and
confirmed the verdict of the jury, which
sets the will aside. This is a victory for
the Armors who had been fighting D.
M. Butts, the administrator appointed
in the will,
—-Leavitt’s ‘Spider and the Fly’
company comes to Garman’s next Mon-
day night with a galaxy of vaudeville
artists that is sure to please everyone.
It will be the largest mixed company
that will appear here this season and
has the reputation of being a first class
troupe. The show is of a specialty
character with just enough links to give
it a chance to sport a name.
——The decision of the Supreme
court, on Monday, in the matter of the
Bowman, Ksher and Dubbs factions,
has decided that bishop Bowman's In-
dianapolis conference was the legal as-
semblage of the church and that bishop
Dubbs is wrong. This gives the Bow-
manites possession of all the church
property in value of nearly $1,000,000.
The Centre county congregations are
mostly Dubbsites.
——Sunday evening at sunset the
Hebrew population of this town began
the celebration of their new year’s day.
According to the orthodox Jewish cal-
endar this is the year 5655 aud its first
day was observed, by those who are
strict in their synagogical duties, with
prayer. The day of atonement,{which
falls on next Wednesday, is another
day which the Hebrews celebrate with
particular ceremonies. It is their fast
day and many of them do not touch
bread or water for the entire twenty-
four hours.
——A man displayed great presence
of mind the other day at Mill Hall. Al
Ely, with his wife and another lady and
gentleman, were driving through the
streets of that town on Sunday when
their horses frightened and became un-
manageable. Their driver, seeing that
Lie could hold them no longer, leaned
out over the dash board and unfastened
the traces, thus leaving them run away
from the vehicle. Tt was slightly
damaged when the pole struck the
ground and stopped it, but the occu-
pants escaped without any injury.
——The early morning train over the
Bald Eagle valley railroad is practically
of no value to passengers east-ward
bound, as Atlantic express, the popular
train to Harrisburg and Philadelphia,
goes through Tyrone an hour earlier
than on the old schedule by which the
valley train made connections with it.
This arrangement will cause a great in-
convenience'to Bellefonters and it is to
be hoped that the B. E. V. express will
be run enough earlier to make the con-
nections with the Atlantic as before.
Under the present schedule the Mon.
tandon route is the best morning train
the Pennsy sends east from this place.
——At a regular meeting of council,
Monday evening the street committee
reported tne race bridge on High street
-in a dangerous condition and that ar-
rangements have been made to repair it;
the relaying of a crossing on Howard
street, a new sewer at Lamb and Spring
streets and the changing ot the grade at
that place. The Water committee re-
ported part of the new 12 in. main laid
on Water street and that the 6in pipe
taken up would be relaid out Spring to
Linn street so as to give the north end
of town a better supply. The Undins
fire company asked for two 1} inch noz-
zles ; the balance due the borough
treasurer was reported at $8,824.57.
Two naw crossings were asked for by
interested citizens and a permission was
grantel A. S. Garman to extend the
' Adjournment.
Dearns oF THE WEEK. —The inex- !
orable wheels of time roll on and every |
day we are called upon to rejoice at the
giving of a new life or sorrow at the
taking of an old. At most the existence
of humanity is infinitesimal as compar-
ed to the stretch of eternity and the life
on earth but the prologue of a future
and real existence. Death comes to-day
and carries off a loved one, tomorrow
naught but their sweet memories live
with us.

Will O'Leary, a young man twenty
nine years of age, died at his home, 16
east Logan street, on Monday. He had
been ill for a long time with consump-
tion and while his death was not unex-
pected it is particularly sad, since it
leaves his sister, Mary, alone. His
father and mother both having died
some years ago his sister kept the home
for him and now she is left to mourn the
death of the brother who loved her so
dearly.
Deceased was a blacksmith by trade.
His funeral was held Wednesday morn-
ing, burial being made in the Catholiz
cemetery.

There died at Zion, last Friday, a
woman whose name is possibly one of
ths most familiar in the whole of Nit-
tany valley, not alone because of her
beautiful christian lite, but also through
the exceptional family of children she
nurtured into manhood and womanhood.
It was Mrs. Lucy Twitmeyer, who at
the age of 71 years, was unable to rally
from an illness of nine weeks. Having
been connected with the Reformed
church in girlhood’s days it was easy for
her to give up life’s toils and cares for
the more blessed immortality.
Deceased was the mother of six sons
and two daughters, all %f whom are
living. The sons are Prof. Edwin
Twitmeyer, Principal of the schools at
Seattle, Wash. ; Prof. Goorge Twit-
meyer, of Honesdale, Pa. ; Dr. Twit-
meyer of Sharpsville ; Henry, of Pleas-
ant Gap; Harvey, of Pittsburg; and
Jerry, ot Freeport, Illinois, The two
daughters are Mrs. Samuel Decker, of
Zion; and Mrs. Shrefiler, of Mill
Hall.
Rev. Miles O. Noll of the Reformed
church of this place, conducted the
funeral services on Sunday morning.
Interment was made at Zion.
CHARLES BoYER oF JULIAN BEATEN
AND RoBBED.—Charles Boyer, aged 53
years, who lives with his family at
Julian, this county, was on his way
home from North Bend, last Saturday,
when waiting in Lock Haven between
trains he was brutally beaten aad rob-
bed by a daring ruffin.
Boyer had been employed by Gaorge
Mix, one of Blackwell’s lumber jobbers,
at North Bend, and on last Friday af-
ternoon received a check for his wages
to that date, amounting to eighty-four
dollars. It was his intention to go to
Lock Haven the next morning and
thence to his home in this county.
James McKenzie saw Boyer got his pay
and told him he would go along as far
as Lock Haven. The two man reached
that point togethar, Boyer had his
check cashed and they began to have a
good-time drinking. Between three
and four o'clock in the afternoon Boyer
started for the station to take the after-
noon train to his home. McKenzie
tried to persuade him to stay over night
in Lock Haven, but he refused to do it.
Some-way orother they got into an
alley on their way down to the station
and while Boyer was taking a drink
from a bottle his companion grabbed
him by the throat and choked him, at
the same time striking him a terrible
blow on the head with his fist. Boyer
fell to the ground, whereupon McKen-
zie jumpad on his head with his spiked
shoes, cutting the prostrate man in a
horrible manner. Then the brutal ruf-
fian rifled his pockets and flad, just as
some men who had been attractad by
Boyer’s cries appeared on the scene.
McKenzie threw Boyer’s purse under a
shed and took to ths woods on the other
side of the river. He was followed but
could not be found. Meanwhile his vic-
tim had recovered and had sworn out a
warrant for him besides offering $25 re-
ward for his arrest.
After night fall McKenzie returned !
to town, thinking be would recover the
purse, but while he was huating around
for it a policeman arrested him and he
is now in jail charged with “assault and
battery, aggravated assault and battery, |
assault and battery with intent to rob
and steal, robbery and larceny.”
McKenzie is about 22 years oid and is |
said to have come from Maryland,

PorLice NEws.--Officer Garis is in
trouble. On Saturday he was arrested,
charged with having taken $45 from

at court and is not much afraid of the
result.

hidden in a sawdust pile.
His Arm WILL HAVE TO BE AMm-
PUTATED.—A. distressing accident oc-
curred at Snow Shoe intersection, Wed-
nesday morning, about 7 o'clock, the
result of which has been the amputa-
tion of John Borman’s left arm, above
the elbow,
He wasa member ofthe B. E.V.
railroad construction crew and the train
had reached the intersection where it
was being shifted, preparatory to doing
some work. Borman was trying to
make a coupling, but the cars recoiled
before the pin dropped, thus necessita-
ting another attempt, but unfortunately
while he was adjusting the link for the
second trial the cars came together
crushing his lett arm above and below
the elbow. The bona and flesh was
as flat a< a paper.
His cries attracted the attention of
the other trainmen and he was brought
to this place immediately. Rail-road
surgeon, Dr. Geo. F. Harris, dressed the
arm and administered an opiate to re-
lieve the sufferer during the tripjto
Tyrone, the unfortunate young man’s
home, whence he was taken to the Al-
toons hospital where the amputation
was made later.
John Borman at one time lived at
Coleville, this place, but a number of
years ago moved;to Tyrone where he
lived with his widowed mother and a
younger brother.

from the engine in the steam laundry
building adjoining set the fire and it
had burned quite a portion of the root
before it was discovered. The prompt
action of the laundry man with a small
garden- hose rendered the services of the
firemen of no use.
