    —In order that country folk will
be able to come to town in good style
on Bellefonte’s Centennial days James
Schofield, the old reliable harness deal-
er, will sell fly-nets and harn ess at half
price from now until that time.

— Thomas O. Glenn, of State Col-
lege, is one of the thirty-eight young
men on whom the Cincinnati Medical
Institute will confer a degree at its
commencement exercises on June the
fourth. Tom graduated at the State
College in ’92 and since that time has
been preparing himself for a first class
doctor, which we have every reason to
believe he will make.
— The annual championship con-
tests of the State Inter-collegiate A. A.
will be held on Beaver field, State Col-
lege, Pa., on Saturday, May 18th, at 2
p. m. These contests promise to be the
most exciting ever held in the State.
Swarthmore, Lehigh, Lafayette, W. U.
of Pennsylvania, Dickinson and Gettys-
burg are all competitors for the State
cup. Most of the collages have entries
and every event will be a fight from
start to finish. The two-mile bicycle
race promises to be especially interest.
ing, as three men have entered who ride
this race in less than 53 minutes.
State’s athletic team is far superior to
any that has represented her in former
contests, as six college records were brok-
en at the Spring handicap meet.
CHANGE oF TIME ON THE BELLE-
roNTE CENTRAL R. R.—On and after
Monday, May 20th, the morning train
to State College will leave this place at
10:30 instead of 10:50 as heretofore.
To-morrow, Saturday, afternoon a
special train will run to State College,
leaving Bellefonte at 1 o'clock p. m.
and arriving at the College in time for
the inter-collegiate sports at that place.
WaNTED—At Lyon & Co’s store,

Carr. PIERRE PERIER.—The most
thrilling feat ever successfully accom-
plished by man is the one performed by
Capt. Pierre Perier. He has adopted
the method of giving two free exhibi-
tions daily on the grounds of the Wal-
ter L. Main grandest and best shows
on earth, in order to introduce to the
American people his wonderful life-sav-
ing apparatus. . To successfully accom-
plish his purpose it was necessary for
him to take advantage of the pres-
ence of the enormous crowds which
daily congregate to see these great
shows. “It only required a moment's
glance at the figures indicating the
numberof people who daily visit this
massive amusement institution, in order
to convince the captain, beyond the
shadow of a doubt, that the Walter L.
Main shows enjoyed the distinction of
having more people come to see them
each day than any other amusement en-
terprise the world has ever known.)
Promptly at 10:30 2. m. and 6:30 p. m.
this noted captain of the celebrated fire
departmerit of the great French
metropolis makes his appearance, ar-
rayed in the regulation uniform of his
native country. He mounts the tower-
ing web-like structure to its topmost
pinnacle, and before the surging mass of
expectant, awe-inspired humanity, one
hundred feet below him, have time to
realize what he is going to do he has
bowed and smiled to the thousands up-
on thousands of upturned faces and
leaped backward into space.
‘Women shriek, and for a moment all
that vast multitude is hushed as in
death. Every eye is turned on the hu-
man figure which is darting downward,
with the rapidity of a missile hurled
from an ancient catapult—he turns as
he dives, revolving in space with the
ease and grace of a sparrow—faster and
faster is his descent until within a few
feat of his miniature net he seems to fal-
ter—his form becomes rigid and as-
sumes a horizontal position —he has
struck the net and like a flash rebounds
fully fifteen feet in the air, descending
again into the net, smiling and bowing
to the anxious throng who crowd
around him as cheers fairly rend the air.
It is the sight of a lifetime and should
be sean by every man, woman and
child in the vast United States. Make
no mistake, Capt. Pierre Perier makes
two dives daily in the open air. The
exhibition is absolutely free to all.
This wonderful exhibition can only be
seen with the Walter Main grandest
and best shows, which exhibit at Belle- |
fonte, May 28th.
— The sun peeped out yesterday
afternoon and scared away the belated
winter that had almost frozen us for
about five days.
WiLL Nor PAY ANY More BoUN-
T1ES.—Acting under instructions from
their attorney and upon an opinion of
Judge Baker, of Cambria county, our
Commissioners have decided not to pay
any more bounties on foxes, minks,owls,
skunks, etc. The only scalps that will be
paid for are those of wildecats and
wolves,
This determination will save the
county considerable money.

Says FOSTER OF THE WEATHER :—
My last bulletin gave forecasts of the
storm waves to cross the continent from
the 15th to 19th and the nest will reach
the Pacific coast about the 20th, cross
the west of Rockies country by the close
of the 21st, great central valleys 22d to
94th and tbe eastern States 25th. This
disturbance will seem to promise rain,
but will generally bring disappoint-
ment, and will make the drought more
severe, except in & few localities.
Warm wave will cross the west of
Rockies country about the 20th, the
great central valleys 22d and eastern
States 24th. Cool wave will cross west
of Rockies country about the 23d, great
central valleys about the 25th and east-
ern States 2Tth.

—Jack frost laid his icy hand heavily
on vegetation in this section on the night
of the I2th inst.
Mr. Charles Snyder is preparing to erect
a dwelling 26x34 on the site of the old
purnt house. W.B. Ward is the builder
and it is to be rushed to completion.
Last week J. W. Kepler bid adieu for a
time to farm life. He has gone to his old
home in Forest county where we trust he
will have an enjoyable time among asso-
ciates of his younger days.
Last Monday, station agt. Michael Mus-
ser at Scotia looked unusually happy
while he passed the cigars in honor of
his first born. He has good reason to be
proud for itis a fine bright boy.
Last week Hewitt Meyers said good-bye
to his best girl and hied himself off to
Alexandria where we hope he will im-
prove his moments at the Academy. His
progress will be closely watched for we
want to see him graduate with first
honors.
Arrangements are being completed for
Decoration services, at Pine Hall ceme-
tery May 30th, at 6 o'clock p. m. Promi-
nent speakers will be present and the
State College band will furnish the music.
Everybody is invited to bring flowers and
take part in the services.
Dr. McKinley, of Clearfield, has an.
nounced that the Rev. Mr. Wallace will
preach in the church in this place at 10:30
a. m. on the second Sunday of June. The
Rev. will likely preach to the Buffalo Run
people in the evening of the same day. It
is understood that he isa candidate for
the late and lamented George Elliott's
charge.
M. E. L. Bergstresser, the celebrated
photographer of half a century’s experi
ence, has pitched his tent in our town
where he will be glad to give his profes-
sional services to the dear people at bot-
tom prices. Everybody should avail
themselves of this rare opportunity to se.
cure first class pictures and at the same
time to saye car fare.
Until the rrost came our farmers had a
cheerful look. Notwithstanding the pro=
longed drouth, crops of all kinds looked
well. This week several showers fell that
were much needed. Wheat is making a
good showing—prospects for fruit are
good excepting peaches and early cher-
ries. Last week mercury registered 9 in
the shade, this week it has been as low as
10and everybody is hunting overcoats and
muffiers.
Last Sunday was a busy day in our town
for the colored orator Rev. Geo. Bosley,
who is a hustler. He preached three ser-
mons attended three Sunday schools and
addressed the Christian Endeavor society"
On Monday evening he delivered a lecture
jn the M. E. church on the origin and his-
tory of his race. He gavean excellent
talk on the intellectual progress of his
people since the Rebellion and although
a man of seventy-three years is so ener:
getic and active that he is far more forci-
ble than a younger man. He took away
with him a snug sum for the school In
North Carolina which he represents be-
side the well wishes of our good people
who were delighted with his preaching
and lecturing.
On Monday night of this week the little
town of Donation between Cornpropst’s
Mills and Huntingdon was thrown into a
blaze of excitement from a white cap raid
in which one of the caps wasshotand kill
ed instantly. Mr, McCracken a good citi-
zen had closed an alley on his premises
for this he had received several letters
urging him to open the alley, whieh he
| refused todo and on Monday night a
| party of about a dozen white caps gather-
| ed at his house to administer to him 49
| lashes. Mr. McCracken was at home and
| fired into the gang killing young Hawn
| about 18 years old, a farmers son who had
! simply gone along to witness the sport:
| When McCracken learned the result he
immediately gave himself up tothe au-
thorities and is now in the Huntingdon
j ail awaiting a hearing.
