Dears WitHiN THE WEEK. —
Death’s cold hand has touched the
forms of many loved ones within the
past week and beckoned them to their
graves, where they mu-t await the res-
urrection.
MRS. JOHN M. FUREY.
Dropsy caused the death of Mrs. John
M. Furey, at her home near Pleusant
Gap, last Thursday morning at eleven
o’clock. She had been ill for some time
and her advanced age of 68 years made
it impossible for her to withstand the
disease. Deceased leaves several
dren with a husband to mourn her
death. Mrs. Charles Tripple, of this
place, and J. Milton Furey, of Lock
Haven, are step children. Her inter-
ment was made Saturday afternoon in
the Lutheran cemetery.
MRS. MARGARET AYRES.
This gentle old christian woman died |
at her home at the Valentine iron works
on Saturday evening last, in her 60th
year. She had been ill a long time and |
death found her ready and waiting to go |
to the maker whose praises she has ever
sung. Deceased was born at Spruce
Creek, Huntingdon county. Her hus-
band died eleven years ago and of a
family of twelve children all but four |
preceded her to the grave. Two daugh-
ters living in the west and two sons who
live here. She was buriel Monday af-
ternoon in the P. 0. S. of A. burying
ground near the works.
W. H. HUNSINGER.
On Monday the remains of W. H.
Hunsinger were brought to this place
from Pottsville for burial. He had been
killed on the railroad at Mt. Carbon, in
Schuylkill county. Deceased was a
a brother-in-law of Wm. Tressler, of
Fillmore, whotook the body in charge
and had the burial made from his home,
The unfortunate man was a son-in-law
of Mr. Thos. Meyers, of this place, and
leaves several sons who are living in
the west. He had been in this county
several months ago but went away to
work in the woods.
A ForMER CENTRE COUNTIAN IN
TrouBLE.—Last Saturday’s papers con-
tained a telegraphic account of the ar-
rest of Thos. A. Lucas, at Scranton. He
is wanted at Valparaiso, Ind, for swin-
dling and old lady out of $2750. Tom
Lucas is well known here in Bellefonte
aud was formerly a resident of Howard,
where his father, Reuben Lucas, resides
now.
The story of his trouble runs about as
follows ; While engaged as an instruc-
tor of a short hand school in Chicago,
Lucas became acquainted with Lilly
Irwin, who lived with her grandmother
at Valparaiso, just over the line in
Indiana. He became a regular visitor
at old Mis. Owen’s home, and she
thinking he intended marrying her
grand daughter entrusted him with
money to invest for her. His specula-
tions were profitable and as long as his
attentions to Miss Irwin continued the
old lady wae pleased to have him re-
invest her earning. But the story runs,
that when the investment had netted
$2,750 Lucas decamped and was not
heard of again until he turned up in
Greenfield, Mass. where he married a
Miss Hammersley, a pretty girl whom
he had met at the World’s Fair.
They located in Scranton where
Thomas had a good engagement in a
School of Mines. There he was arrest-
ed and on a requisition was taken to
Indiana. We trust he will be able to
show himself guiltless of the charge.
LAraYETTE BADLY BEATEN.—Con.
trary to the expectation of those who
had anticipated a good contest La-
fayette made a miserable showing in
the foot-ball game with the Pennsylva-
nia State College eleven, at State Col-
lege, last Saturday afternoon. About
four hundred people watched the snap-
py little blue and white players rua all
around the big Eastonians and break
through their line as if it had
been made up of so many blocks of ice.
At no time during the game did the
visitors give any evidence that they
could play the game. Their wind was
as poor as their judgement and they
were completely dazad at the rapidly
successive brilliant plays of their small-
er antagonists.
Oue thirty and one twenty-five min-
ute halt were played, the score being
State 72, Lafayette 0. The teams
lined up as follows :

the good animal.
——Mrs. David Kennedy has sued
the borough of Jersey Shore for $10,000
damages for injuries sustained by a fall

comes here filled with new music, new
songs, and pretty girls that dance to
perfection.
— Arbor Day, last Friday, was fit-
tingly celebrated at Shope school house,
below Milesburg. Seven trees were
planted and Col. James F. Weaver ad-
dressed the scholars. The Bellefonte
schools observe the spring Arbor day,
but because of their early closing the
district schools must celebrate the fall
day or none.
——Lawyer Duston, of Ebensburg
was in Altoona last Thursday and be-
came intoxicated. On going home that
night he got off the train at Lilly’s
station instead of at Cresson, where he
should have changed to go on to Ebens-
burg. He wandered around among

are old musicians it can be looked to for
some fine work,
——The death of Peter Seigworth,
which occurred at Jeanette, on Tues-
day night of last week, was at first sup-
posed to have been caused by suicide,
but the coroner's jury has decided that
the unfortunate man was murdered.
The fact that he had been out of work
for a long while and his efforts to obtain
employment having failed seemed to
give credence to this theory. Seigworth
was known to have had $45 and a fine
gold watch on his person all of which
were gone when he was found. This,
with the general appearance of the body
and surroundings, convinced the jury
that the man had been murderad. He
was a brother-in-law of A. A. Kohl-
becher, of Milesburg.
——Constable Mench, of Milesburg,
arrested an old German and his wife
near Milesburg last Thursday evening,
and brought them to jail here accusing
them of stealing D. Smull’s horse, at
Hartleton, Union county. Their names
are Fleming and both protested their
innocence and swore that they traded
for the horse in the “Narrows”. The
aviwmal they they were driving turned
out to be the stolen property but they
really traded for it. So when the old
man got back to Lewisburg he found
himself without any horse at all. His
wife was sent to the poor house here to
await his return, but yesterday morning
“overseer McClute sent her down to
him,

THis WEATHER Is Soo Dug.—
Prophet Foster keeps everlastingly at it
on the weather prognostication.
His latest starts off like this: «My
last bulletin gave forecasts of the storm
wave to cross the continent from 19th
to 23d, and the next will reach the
western mountains about the 23d, cross
the western mountains by close of 24th,
the great central valleys from 25th to
27th and the eastern states about the
28th. This disturbance will be of
more than usual force, and will be fol-
lowed in the northern latitudes by ugly
winter weather. Rainfall will be above
the average in many places during the
last week in October.
The warm wave will cross the west-
ern mountains about the 23d, the great
central valleys about the 25th, and the
eastern states about the 27th. The cool
wave will cross the western mountains
about the 26th, the great central valleys
about the 28th and the eastern states
about the 30th. Severe frosts will ac-
company the cool wave, probably as fur
south as the 34th parallel.
Beginning with January these bulle-
tins will give in advance the probable
average monthly temperature and rain-
fall separately for the divisions known
as the eastern states, the Ohio valley,
the upper Mississippi valley and the
northern states east of the Rocky moun-
tains. A little later the same informa-
tion will be given for the South Atlan-
tic states, east gulf states, west gulf
states, north Pacific coast and south
Pacific coast.
The calcalations on my new discovery
of the causes that control temparature
and rainfall are proving eminently satis-
factory, and leave no doubt as to its cor-
rectness. The tabies of planetary posi-
tions agree with the official records of
rainfall and temperature for any past
month. The construction of the tables,
however, is an exceedingly laborious
task.
A Cuaxce To Have Your Boys
Tavear Music FrREe.—W. A. Good-
win, the organist of St. John's Episco-
pal church, who has had the entire
charge of the choir for the past year,
has organized it into a class for the pur-
pose of instructing them in reading
music at sight and of training the voices
of the younger mewbers better.
Mr. Goodwin is a musician of consid-
erable skill as is attested by the work
he has done as choir master at St. John’s
He is an earnest instructor, not given to
anything other than a careful attention
to his duties. At present he is carry-
ing the extra work of directing the
Bellefonte choral, society but is anxious
for a larger choir in his church. In or-
der to increase it he has offered instruc-
tion in the rudiments of music to all
who will join. He informs us that all
parents wishing to give their boys the
advantage of a vocal training are wel-
come to send them to this class. There
will be no charge made, the only re-
quirement being that they sing in the
choir during the regular services in the
church.
There are many good voices among
the young boys of the town and it is the
duty of parents to have them trained
while yet young as that is the only
time when it can be done properly and
to the best advantage. Now-a-days it is
considered a necessary part of a good
education to know how to read music,
even if a person is not a good singer.
Boys between 8 and 13 years will be
received in this class.
If you wish your boy to join notify
Mr. Goodwin at any time or send the
boy himself to the church Monday or
Thursday of each week at 7 p m,
IMPORTANT. — This issue of the
WATCHMAN contains a supplement on
which the sheriff's proclamation is
printed. It shows the exact form of the
ballot to be voted this fall so you had
better save it and study the matter up-
It will be noticed that the Democratic
column contains no nominee for State
Senate. This is because of the respect
Mr. Caldwell has for the wishes of Cen-
tre and Clearfield counties, He suc-
ceeded, with the aid of a Republican
court, in keeping Mr. Savage off the
regular ticket and now his name will
either appear under nomination papers
or on a separate slip.
Don’t forget to vote for Savage.
Look for his name somewhere on the
ticket and put an X opposite it.
Tar MILLEEIM DEMOCRATIC MEET-
ING CHANGED.—Owing to Mr. Fow’s
inability to get to Millheim next Friday
night the date for the Democratic mn eet-
ing in that place hus been changed to
Thursday evening, November 1st. On
that night Mr. Fow, the Philadelphia
orator,will surely be there and the
Democrats of the lower end should give
him a hearty welcome.

—Meuyer G. Guggenheimer came up from
his home in Philadelphia on last Saturday to

--E. P. Campbell E<q., who is a brother-in-
law of county commissioner T. Frank Adams,
has been visiting in town for a few days past.
Twenty-two years ago he left his home in
Milesburg to accept aclerkship in the N. Y. &
E. railroad offices in New York city, and the
outcome of the fidelity with which he dis-
charged his duties, is seen in the fact that to-
day heis Auditor of the whole system with one
hundred and thirty seven clerks under him.
Mr. Campbell is a very pleasant gentleman an d
enjoys revisiting his old home at Milesburg ,
whenever an opportunity presents itself. He
always manages to spend a few days in Belle-
fonte, where he makes more friends with
every visit,

WHY PHEASANTS ARE SCARCE.—An
exchange says: “It has been noticed
among sportsmen in this country that
the ruffled grouse, or common pheas-
ant, is very scarce. Its said that the
cause of the scarcity is because the egus
are stolen by parties of chemists and
bird fanciers. The chemists use por-
tions of the eggs in making a drug,
which is very rare. A man with six
boys and seven five bird dogs was in the
vicinity of Scranton last summer and
collected ten thousand pheasant eggs.
This is why the pheasants are hard to
find.”
