—— The rankest aggregation of trav.
cling barn stormers that has ever visited
Bellefonte, played at Garman’s opera
house cn Monday and Tuesday night
under the head of Hergleroths minstrel

and one of the so-called actors was
greeted with a shower of turnips and |
cabbage heads that drove him from the
stage.
OBITUARY'— Wm. Faucet Bathurst,
for the last forty-five years a resident of
Mt. Eagle, passed peacefully away on
the morning of the 11th inst., the next |
dav following the funeral of our dis-
tingaished fellow-citizen the late ex-
Gov. Andrew G. Curtin, with whom as |
a friend and school mate he had in early
youth he had been intimately asso-
ciated at Curtin’s Works.
About nine years ago while going
from his work to the shanty or dorma-
tory of the forge, he fell from the plank
which spanned the tail-race as a foot
bridge. The ouigrowth of the severe
hurt inflicted by the accident was a can-
cer, which caused untold suffering with
little relief through the years which fol-
lowed, till death, for which he was
ready and waiting, claimed him. He
passed away peacefully as one who had
gone to rest.
If the inoffensive and evanescent habi-
tude and temper of the man suggests
one characteristic above another it
would surely bein the beatitude of the
“peacemaker.” He never argued and
consequently never quarreled. For the
many years he worked at Eagle Forge,
he made no personal enemies although
he was, during a great part of the time,
the only Democrat in the forge. As he
lived he voted, peacetully and quietly,
always with a pleasant smile on his
countenance. No wonder Andy Curtin
liked him, nor that he liked Andy in
the old days.
During his entire life, till disabled,
the deceased had worked at Eagle Forge
(Curtin) except for a period of about
three years when he worked at Spruce
Creek, Blair county, where he married
November 25th, 1839, Miss Catharine
Rue Barry. He was born at Curtin’s
Iron Works, August 9th, 1811, being at
the date of his death 83 years, 2 months
and 2 days old. His sons and daughters
are in the order of the several births as
follows: James F. Bathurst, of Phila-
delphia; William F., of Huntingdon ;
Jennie S. wife of R. C. Leathers, Esq.,
deceased, of Mt. Eagle; Mrs. Precilla
M. Allison, of Titusville; Francis M.
Bathurst deceased ; Mrs. Ettie R. Leath-
ers, wife of Wm. Leathers, Mt. Eagle;
Almeda L. Reeder, wife of Jas. Reeder,
Mt. Eagle; George E. Bathurst, Olean,
N. Y. The widow of deceased will re-
main at the old bomestead at Mt. Eagle.
MoxDpAY EvENING’S CouNcIL MEET-
ING.-—At the regular meeting of coun-
cil, on Monday evening, there was a lit-
tle of all kind of business to come up for
consideration.
Under the miscellaneous head J. C.
Meyer, representing McCalmont and
Co., presented a bill of costs in the in-
junction suit against the borough and
asked immediate payment, He also pre-
sented a bill of $571 costs in the Solt
case. John Blanchard, representing the
Bellefonte Gas Co., protested against
the cutting down of Curtin street which
leaves gas mains on that street on top
of ground. He thought that the bor-
ough should stand the extra expense of
relaying the pipes. The Treasurer was
directed to pay the balance of $1,100
due on the purchase of the Curtin lot,
on Howard street. Permission was
granted Mr. Corman, the blind man,
to build a stand at the corner of the
High street bridge.
Committees reported as follows :
Street, repairs to race bridge on High
street, the grading of Curtin street, a
new crossing over Allegheny street at
Cherry alley, and that a number of prop-
ositions to light the streets have been
received and one of them will be acted
upon ere long. The Water committee
reported its work in good shape. The
Market committee reported $5.40 fees
for two weeks. The Finance commit-
tee reported a balance in the hands of
the treasurer of $1,703 74.
Other business that came up was a
discussion of the botch that has been
made on west Lamb street, but as no
ons knew exactly how council can undo
the mistakes that have been made in the
attempt to tickle everyone at the same
time, some one, equal to the emergency,
moved for adjournment and it carried.
KEYsToNE MArcH.—Mr. Lee B.
Woodcock, Bellefonte’s young com pos-
er, has just published another of his
instrumental compositions. It is en-
titled “Keystone March’ and is respect-
fully dedicated to Gen. D. H. Hastings,
the Republican candidate for Governor.
Like ull of his work it is full of har-
mony and a piece that should become
very popular because of its nice swing-
ing time and ease of execution.
The music is on sale at Bush’s station-
ery store in the Arcade and sells for 35
cents per sheet. It is printed on an ex-
cellent quality of paper and the caption
is very prettily lithograpbed on the title
page; the Keystone being worked in
the design to give the names’ signifi-
cance.
“Keystone March’ is both simple and
pretty and will make a “winner” with
bands all over the Siate as well as
being a good two-step for the piano.

——The Hand-in-hand hose company
of Lock Haven will start building a new
$2,000 hose house next week. It will be
of brick and stone.
——The tastest horse ever owned in
Pennsylvania was the pacing stallion
Crawford, record 2.06 1-3. The valua-
ble animal died at DuBoise on Satur-
day. He had been taken there from the
stud to enter the races but was unable
to go in them. R. A. Stratton owned
him.
—— On Monday morning the remaing
of Mrs. Mary Barlet were brought to
this place from Altoona, where she had
died at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Ellen Lucas. Deceased was 74 years of
age and a devout member of the United
Brethren church. Mr. David Barlet, of
of this place, is a son.
—— Alex Whitehill, the last season’s
Tyrone base ball pitcher, who played
with the Omaha, Neb., Western League
club during the season just closed, won
fifty-six out of seventy games played.
He is the young man who refused to
sign a contract that would make it nec-
essary for him to play in Sunday games.
——At about 11 o’clock on last Satur-
day morning Harvey Paul, the adopted
child of Mr. 8. C. Cowden, of Tyrone,
was horribly burned, in fact so bad that
he died next day. The clothes of the
little one became ignited from a match
which was set aflame by the action of the
child’s rocking horse which it was riding
at the time.
——FEdward Hartley, a resident of Al-
toons, who ran a tailor shop in Bell-
wood and had been missing from home
nearly a week, was found in a partly de-
composed condition in his shop Saturday
morning. An empty bottle that had
contained laudanum was lying at bis
side to tell of the manner in which he
had met death. Family trouble is sup-
posed to have caused the suicide.
——Philipsburg experienced quite a
fall of snow on Sunday. The ther-
mometer dropped to 35° and about five
o'clock in the evening the rain and sleet
that had been falling atintervals daring
the day turned to snow. In a very
short time the ground was covered with
an inch or more that remained until late
Monday morning. This seems remark-
ably early for a fall of snow, but it is nog
unprecedented for on October 5th, 1835
there was such a heavy snow in that
vicinity as to break down spruce and
pine trees with its weight.
——The Adelphi club of The Penn-
gylvania State College, will hold a
reception in Bush’s Arcade, Bellefonte,
on Friday evening, October 26th. Stop-
per & Fisk's Williamsport orchestra
will furnish the music for dancing. The
patronesses will be Mrs. Geo. W, Ather-
ton, Mrs. Jas. A. Beaver, Mrs. J. O.
Dreisbach, Mrs. R. M. Foster, Mrs.
G. S. Good, Mrs. D. H. Hastings, Mrs.
T. W. Kinkaid, Mrs. W. F. Reeder,
Mrs. J. F. Wilson and Miss Alice Wil-
son. The committee in charge is com-
posed of H. J. Waters, T. R. Beyer, R.
B. Greer, J. E. Snyder, J. M. Wolfe,
D. L. Patterson Jr., and H. G. Fleck.
——The Wm. M. Singerly club of
Bellefonte, forty strong, with Meyer's
full band attended the State convention
of Democratic clubs at Altoona on last
Friday and returned in the evening re-
porting having had a fine time. The
club carried green hickory canes and
wore white ribbon badges and
made a good appearance while on the
march. The organization ot a Singerly
club here is going to be of material
good to the party. It will have a tend-
ency to enthuse the Democrats and
waken them up. Then there will be an
excellent opportunity, through it, to
dispel the idea that Hastings is going to
carry Centre county.
——The lower end of Lamb street is
the worst torn up thoroughfare we have
seen in this town for a long time. To
suit the new armory council authorized
the raising of the grade at Lamb and
Spring streets nearly four feet. After
having given the Central R. R. Co,, of
| Pa. the privilege of running a siding up
| the street to the Bellefonte Gas Co's
, plant. It was thought that the change
| of grade would keep the siding off the
| street, but the railroad people went to
| work last Wednesday and laid their
| track right up to Spring street.

LAFAYETTE vs THE PENNSYLVANIA
StaTE COLLEGE.—The most interesting
foot-ball game that will be played at
State College this season will be the at-
traction on Beaver field tomorrow after-
noon at 2 o'clock. The Lafayette col-
lege eleven will line up against tho blue
and white players of State and a fine
game will undoubtedly result.
There was no game between these
teams last year, but in '91 and ’92 State
clearly out classed her former superior
and left the Easton collegians behind in
the struggle for supremacy in athletics.
The fact that our home institution has
been represented in former years by a
heavy team leavesit a question as to the
outcome of tomorrow’s game. Both
times that State won from Lafayette
she bad a far heavier line than repre-
sents her this year. Lafayette in un-
deniably stronger than last year, but no
comparison can be drawn from this be-
! cause the elevens did not play that sea-
‘ son. However she was weaker last than
! the preceding year so conceding that she
! is as strong this season as in 1892, when
State won from her 18 to 0, the result
of the game tomorrow is a matter of
much doubt. State is not as strong
either in the line or the backs as she
was in ‘91-92 or '93, but the snappy
game she put up against Gettysburg last
Saturday has led to the belief that she
will surprise those who are counting on
a very material weakness. State defeat-
ed Gettysburg by the score of 60 to 0,
while Lafayette only succeeded in beat-
ing Gettysburg, two weeks ago, by the
score of 34 to 0. But in the latter game
only 20 minute halfs were played and
then Lafayette made eight touch downs.
A special train will be run over the
Bellefonte Central, leaving here a 1 p.
m. and returning immediately after the
game. A good crowd should turn out
for this will undoubtedly be the best
game that will be played at State Col-
lege this year. It is the most important
one thus far scheduled for the home
grounds.

OUR CELEBRATION.—Last Saturday was
observed as Columbus day in our town,
andin honor of it Old Glory was hoisted to
the top of a huge pole, which was furnish-
ed by J. B. Ard, and that loomed away
above the spires of the town.
The occasion was under the aus
pices of the J.--0.. U, A. M
Although the weather man did not smile
propitiously in the early part of the day,
about ten o'clock the first golden suan-
beams came peeping shyly over the crest
oflofty old Tussey illuminating Penns and
Spruce Creek Valleys and resting loving-
ly upon our beautifully decorated town.
It was an inspiring scene, one which will
not fade from the memory of the behold-
er. Standing on the principal tbhorough-
fare beautiful arches and decorations in
red white and blue met the eye in every
d rection Handreds of flags, banners and
streamers waved in the morning breeze.
Never in the history of our town has it
been so resplendent nor did old glory so
proudly wave. All the morning teams
could be seen coming in over every road
leading into town bearing loads of jolly
and enthusiastic people bent on seeing

Prof. E. E Sparks of the Penna State Col.
lege was introduced, his subject was
“American Citizenship.” For thirty min-
utes he attracted the attention of the ene.
tire audience. With rave eloguence, he
related the landing of the Pilgrims on the
rock bound coast of New England, their
privations and perils, their successes and
achievments The necessity and result of
the Revolutionary war, the constant
struggle for liberty, the war with the
South and the onward march of civiliza-
tion. He reminded his hearers that their
duty was to guard and defend the institu.
tions and rights tounded by liberty and
independence from the assiduous foes
anarchism and socialism, which already
. hung threateningly over the rights of the
citizen. He rejoiced that the heroic deeds
| of our brave soldiers had been recorded
in history and that the flag which they
| had carried to victory waved over a
country united and at peace. His tribute
| to the bravery of the men who fought for
the Union was most glowing and his re-
| marks on the duties of the American citi-
zen were So inspiring that his hearers
would gladly have listened to him forty
minutes longer.
After the band p'ayed ‘Rally Round

moved in the following order:

the dark over-hanging clouds could not

from a carriage, and when suddenly the
rain came down in torrents Gabriel blew
his trumpet and the marchers broke ranks
and scattered to dry quarters. The socia
