he go so near the saw that it whizzed
his hat off his head and touched his hair,
- The het was thrown up on the floor
above where the mill hands saw it and
concluded at once that Derner had been
killed. The machinery was stopped but
only a badly frightened man was found
below.
Tonight the “County Fair” will
be the attraction at Garman’s. That the
company is a first-class one is vouch-
safed by the fact that it played all last
week at the Grand opera house, the
largest in Philadelphir, and in going
west 1s stopping only at West Ches-
ter, Lancaster, Harrisburg, Bellefonte,
Johnstown and Pittsburg in this State.
Go to see it, and, our word for it, you
won’t regret doing so.

Joe, were driving in the pike past the
Valentine iron works, on Sunday eve-
ning, their horse frightened at an im-
mense board gate that had laid at the
gide of the road all winter. It gave one
spang and turned the buggy completely
over. Joe alighted on his feet, but Mr.
Fauble fell beavily. though fortunately
both escaped the injuries that certainly
would bave resulted had they been
tangled in the wrecked buggy. The
horse was caught by a tramp near
Mr. Kelley's house.
DEATH oF A Goop MaN.—T wo weeks
ago to-day Rev. George Elliott, pastor,
of the Unionville, Buffalo Run and Pine |
Grove Mills Presbyterian churches, left
his home in this place in apparent good
health for his work up the country. |
Friday evening he preached an excel-
lent sermon at Buffalo Run and Satur-
day, accompanied by .Dr. McKinley, of
Clearfield, drove to Pine Grove. Chilled
and exhausted by the long, cold drive he
was not able to be in the pulpit Sunday,
but attended to church duties Monday
and Tuesday, even when he was suffer-
ing much.
Wednesday, only for a short time, how-
ever, as the next day he was so seriously
ill that Mrs. Elliott hastened to his side.
Careful and intelligent nursing failed to
have any effect and Friday evening he
died of pleurisy at the home of John B.
Mitchell, in Pine Grove.
Mr. Elliott was born in Wellsville,
Ohio, Nov. 15th, 1825. In 46 he gradu-
ated a. Duquesne College and entered
the Allegheny Theological Seminary,
where he studied more than a year. He
finished his theological course at Prince-
ton in 1849, and in June of the same
year, was ordained by the Huntingdon
Presbytery and installed pastor at Alex-
andria, where he staid until ’58. For
ten years he preached and did excellent
work at Reedsville and then accepted a
call to the 20d Presbyterian church of
Freeport, Ill., where he was in charge
til 78. Daring his seven year’s, 73-80,
pastorate of the McEwensville, Warrior
Run, and Watsontown charge he was
chiefly instrumental in building the
beautiful church at Watsontown, col-
lecting a large part of the funds from his
personal friends throughout the coun-
try. In 80 he took charge of the Me-
Connellsburg church and from there
went to Orbisonia and Newton Hamilton
where he remained until '87 when he
accepted a call from the Pine Grove
Mills, Bald Eagle and Buffalo Run
churches which he was serving at the
time of his death.
In all these appointments he was
largely successful while in several he
was eminently so. Affable and kind
Mr. Eiliott was known and beloved by
those who never heard him preach a
sermon or conduct a service. As a
preacher he was diligent, courageous
and well liked. He was twice married,
the second time to Miss Laura Wilson,
daughter of the late Dr. W. I. Wilson,
of Potter’s Mills, who with his four sons,
George M., of Chicago; W. W. and
John H. of Denison, Tex., and James
‘W., of Bangor, Pa., survive him.
On lest Saturday his body was brought
to his home in this place,and Wednes-
day afternoon Drs. Laurie, Mat-
thews, Parker, and Rev. Kelley, Heany
and Wright conducted the largely at-
tended funeral services in the Presby-
terian church. After which'he was laid
to rest in the Union cemetery.
A FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT.—An ac-
cident from which the venerable Robert
Hepburn, poor overseer elect, of Belle-
fonte, miraculously escaped with his life
occurred in the rolling mill of the Val-
entine iron works last Monday morning.
He was making some repairs to some
overhead machinery near a vertical
sbafting that operates the mill,
and was standing on a platform
working when a set screw in the shafy
coupling caught the sleeve of his coat. -
Before he had time to do anything he
was wound close to the revolving shafy
and was being whirled about at a terrific
speed.
An idea of the awful velocity at
which the unfortunate man was flying
can be had when it is known that his
body revolved in a perfectly horizontal
manner and that a four inch oak stud-
ding that stocd near by was broken by
his limbs flying against it. As soon as
the mill men heard his cries they realized
the awful predicament he was in and
John Meyers flew to shut off the water.
His position was a perilous one, indeed,
for at every revolution he was compelled
to dodge the body of Mr. Hepburn and
even before he was able to shut off the
water his arms were beaten black and
blue. Wm. Long, exercising great
presence of mind, ran some iron into the
rolls to stop the machinery and George
Miller ran to catch the body in the
event of the clothing giving way, for
had it fallen down life would have been
ground out instantly in the many cog
wheels that were running at the bottom
of the shafting.
It is thought that Mr. Hep-
burn made thirty revolutions before
he was taken from his perilous posi
tion and yet he was conscious all the
time. His left ankle was broken, his
right arm was out of joint at the elbow,
and his right leg and breast were painful-
ly bruised. It is a great wonder that he
was not killed outright, his escape be-
ing miraculous. Old as he is he will
survive his injuries, if no unforseen com-
plication arises.
——Harry Thomas, of Centre Hall,
was arrested Tuesday evening charged
with aggravated assault and attempt to
kill his wife. He had been abusing her
in the past and asshe could bear it
no longer so she had him arrested. He
was brought here and committed to jail
for trial at the April term. Thomas |
was originally from Ferguson township.
He was somewhat better !
——Dr. H. C. Lichtenthaler, of Lock
Haven, died in that place Tuesday morn-
ing after about three week’s illness with

——The death of Mrs. John P. Se-
bring, occurred at her home near Love-
ville, on Monday night of last week,
from heart failure. Deceased was only
in her 33rd year and her death in the
prime of womanhood seems particularly
sad.
——Harry Loeb, a DuBoise lum-
ber dealer, failed with judgments
aggregating $44,265.55 entered
against him. It is reported that
he had overdrawn his account ab
the defunct DuBoise bank to the amount
of $20,000. The bank will pay all
of its creditors it is said.
—H. M. Baldridge Esq., a very
prominent attorney of Hollidaysburg,
dropped dead on the pavement in front
of his office in that place on Monday
morning. Apoplexy was the cause of
his death. He had just returned from
the Court House, where he had presided
at a meeting of the Blair county bar
association.
~——An engine on the Beech Creek
rail-road became unmanageable near
Snow Shoe on Tuesday and the engin-
eer, being unable to stop it after several
attempts, abandoned it; the fireman fol
lowing him. The engine snorted mad-
ly along the track until near Peale where
it collided with an east bound freight
train. Both engines were wrecked, but
no one was hurt.
——Mrs. Mary Eckley, wife of Wil-
liam Eckley, died at her home, on Rey-
nolds avenue, on Tuesday afternoon, af-
ter a long illness. She was stricken

fifty years old and is survived by a sor-
rowing husband and several daughters.
Funeral services will be held this after-
noon at 2 o'clock.
——The new township scheme which

resulted as follows : North precinet, 69

against, leaving a majority of 164
against the change.

G. W. Jackson, Mrs. F. W. Crider,
and Mrs. D. L. Krebs, while the
Misses Holiday and Miss Millie Smith,

Reeder gave a “thimble’” party in honor
of Mrs. Hastings,
——The Salt Lick gas and oil com-
pany held a meeting at Lock Haven,

A Busy N1GHT 1N¥ CoUNCIL.—Mon-
day night the borough councilmen had
more business than they could attend
to and after looking into as much of it
as possible, the session adjourned to
meet again next Monday evening.
Among those who appeared with
grievances were Mrs. Kate Fasig, who
asked for a tax exoneration, claiming
that she was unable to pay same. Re-
ferred to Finance committee.
Messrs. Rishel and Kerns, of south
Potter street, appeared to enquire what
had become of the boardwalk that was
ordered for thai thoroughfare. They
were told that a survey had not been
made yet so they will have to wade
through the mud until the work is com-
pleted. “rea
The butchers of Bellefonte were the
next complainants and they all looked
as though they would like to have those
councilmen on their blocks fora few
moments. They protested again that
peddlers are selling meat everywhere on
the streets in direct violation of the curb
stone market ordinance.
Then came some of the ladies of the
Village Improvement Society who peti-
tioned council, with many endorsers, to
legislate against the erection of any
buildings on the bank of Spring creek
from the “Big Spring’ to the Lamb
street bridge. Their petition looks to
the future beauty of the town and
should not be construed as being aimed
at any particular person, though it
might be said that the action of council
at a former meeting, when it granted a
privilege that would result in the erec-
tion of a booth on the southeast corner
of the High street bridge over Spring
Creek, precipitated the movement. The
idea of the ladies being personally antag-
onistic to any particular individual is
absurd. It is looked upon by them asa
matter of general interest to the town
and viewing it as such they have asked
council to settle the question ina way
that will preclude any future trouble.
The various committees made reports
of their work, the bond of Michael Ber-
ger, high constable, was presented and
approved, the Village Improvement So-
ciety reported the collection of $25.75
with which to purchase trees, then coun-
cil instructed its secretary to inform Mr.
John Waite that their action had been
reconsidered and that he should not be-
gin the erection of his intended building
on the bridge until the matter was defi-
nitely settled on next Monday night.
The centennial project received a lit-
tle boost by the appointment of Messrs:
Beaver, Keller and Hillibish as a com-
mittee to confer with the chief burgess
regarding a proper celebration. A re-
port from the treasurer revealed the fact
that he had in hand only about $200 to
meet current expenses and that there
was no source from which more could
be drawn. Other business of less im-
portance was transacted and the meet-
ing adjourned.
Tor WIRE Grass MEN WERE
HEerE,—The Bellefonte Board of Trade
met in a special meeting, on Tuesday
night, to consult with the gentlemen
from Falls Creek who are looking for a
location to establish a plant for the
manufacture of wire glass. They had
samples of their product on hand which
seemed like a very good thing. Their
idea was to occupy the Bellefonte glass
works, main building, and manu-
facture ail kinds of structural glass,
making a specialty of the wire glass
which is simply a fine wire netting roll-
ed into a common flint glass. The ad-
vantage being that it gives greater
strength against breakage and in the
event of its being broken the wire pre-
vents the glass form falling from a sky-
light or such place, injuring those who
may be under it.
The gentlemen are practical glass
makers and before meeting the Board
had examined the idle plant here. They
reported that it could be used very nice-
ly without destroying its usefulness for
the manufacture of window glass; then
Mr. Frank Mullen, of Reynoldsville,
who was instrumental in bringing them
here, laid their proposition before the
meeting. It was substantially as fol-
lows: They agreed to put in their pat-
ent at $30,000 if our citizens would sub-
scribe $20,000 cash, and furnish the
glass works building five years free of
rent and tax. The proposition may
have been all right it their patent was
guaranteed to resultin anything, butin.
its undeveloped condition the sum asked
seemed most too large for an untried in-
dustry. The gentlemen left town to vis-
it Tyrone Wednesday, where, we under-
stand, their proposition will be enter-
tained.
Right in this line it might be well to
announce that Mr. John P. Harris, trus-
tee of the glass works, is negotiating
with a party whom he expects will come
here and operate the works.
MARRIED AT MILESBURG.—The Bap-
tist parsonage at Milesburg, was the
scene of a very happy marriage, on
Wednesday, when Rev. J. B. Soule,
united Mr. Orrie Stover, of Eagleville,
and Miss Alice M. Heaton, of Boggs
township, in the holy bonds of matri-
mony. The groom is a very excellent
young gentleman and his bride is a
daughter of Mr. Henry Heaton sa well
known resident of that end of the coun-
ty. The WATCHMAN wishes them
much happiness.
——The Mattern family reunion will
be held at Warriors-mark on the 13th
of June next.
——See Shaffer's advertisement in
another column and remember the time
is very short.
—The Methodists of Pennsvalley are
happy because Rev. Ralph Illingworth
has been returned to their circuit.
——Robert, a son of post-master
Smith of Millheim, has succeeded Geo,
Hazel as a clerk in the office at that
place.
. ——Sheaffer is again offering a great

—Rev. N. Young, of the Evan-
gelical church, who was recently ap-

Millheim on Sunday evening.
——Lyon & Co’s., mammoth store in
this place 1s crowded every day with
people who are wise enough to take ad-
vantage of the great sacrifice sale now
advertised by that firm.
——W e copy the following from the
Altoona Times, “The refusal of Dr. D.
S. Monroe to be a candidate for re-elec-
tion to the office of secretary of the con-
ference, which he has held since the
year 1869, was a matter of regret to his
many friends, who are naturally griev-
ed to see the associations which have
continued through all these years sever-
ed. There never was a more faithful
official than the reverend gentleman
who has just retired after a quarter of a
century’s service. No doubt, however,
the doctor has excellent reasons for re-
fusing to become a candidate for re-elec-
tion and, as his plans did not coincide
with his acceptance of further honor at
the hands of the conference, as would
be given by his retention in the secre-
taryship, his decision is no doubt the
best. The doctor has for years been
prominent in the affairs of Methodism
in this section and he has labored un-
ceasingly for the advancement of the
church of which he is such a distin-
guished member. There are no honors
or preferments to be given of which he
is not worthy, and if there should be
any bishops to appoint we do not know
of any one more entitled to such a posi-
tion than the Rev. David S. M onroe.

Keaner brought first blood and first fall and
in the opening of the third round a swinging
left hander finished his man for the night.
Keaner has several matches on hand now for
which he is training.
WHAT I Is.—The “County Fair’ that

tion that everyone should see. It play-
ed all of last week in Philadelphia and
is on its road for a week stand in Pitts-
burg, stopping at Lancaster, Harris burg,
Bellefonte,
The plot is a very pretty story of the
farm life of Abigail Prue, an old maid
farmer, who took two little New York
waifs to raise. She was burdened with
a morigage against her farm and Tim,
one of her adopted children, having
spent most of his city life hanging
around a great racing stable, was not
slow in disc overing that “Cold Molasses,”
one of Abigail’s colts, had the points of a
the colt at the “County Fair” race and
the last scene is the thrilling race be,
tween the horses in which Tim wins
and surprises Abigail by presenting her
with the purse, enough to pay off her
mortgage.

WHERE You CAN Buy THE CHEAP-

cents after all. No matter what people
say it is as natural to save a penny in
buying as it is to eat dinner at the din-
ner hour. Opportunities to make great
savings are not often to be had, but
