MaIN’s SHOWS IN BELLEFONTE.—
Tuesday was circus day in Bellefonte
and the flaming bills that Lad plastered
every barr zug board for miles around,
two weeks previous to that date,
brought a highly gratifying result to
the circus wnpigement. An immense
crowd liled the fent at the afternoon
performunee, toers having been forty-
three hundred admissions registered.
The ~ight’s business was exceptionally
5 had not been here for
wo years, but the people remembered
he fire entertainmant of that visit and
did uot hesitate to go again. They
were not disappointed either, for the
show was away ahead of its high mark
of two years ago and bristled with
features never before seen under canvas,
Everything seemed brigat and now.
The costumes were especially arlisii
and excited mech admiration,
Among the features that caught the
audiences here were the statuesque post
ing by tho Roach sisters, wh
sidering the unavoidable imperfections
in mechavieal effects consequent upon
such a feature under ten-
it was so realistic as
ich, con-
erating
wes roarkable.
> practically deceive many of the spee-
taiors into believing thay looked on the
work of many famous sculptors instead
of life affecting the inanimate. The
einesiran turns of the Millers and Sei-
jurts, doula brother and sister acts,
were decidedly clever and elicited wall
merited applause, while the novel fea-
ture of seeing iwo men and a daintily
ciad girl do a strong acrobatic act added
much to the success of the performance.
The shows had excellent stock, court-
cous attaches and entered and left the
town without the slightest disturbance
of any kind.

The following card from the Undine Fire
Company Committee on Ball is self-explana
tory :
Editor Democratic Warcmuian :(—Will you
kindly convey through the columns of your
paper the following request: That all persons
under sixteen years of age, of both sexes, be
kept at home, or at least from the armory, on
the night of the Undine Fire Co’s. ball. We
have issued invitations to all that are known
and will likely come, and any who come there
will be expected to present their invitation or
they will not be admitted. While the
building is large, it will, we are satisfied, be
small enough for those over 16 years of age
who will attend so those yonnger than that are
expected to stay at home, The best ©
order will be preserved throughout the
evening.
Yours truly,
Committee on Ball.

John Muir, the Californian naturalist and
geologist, has written for the June Century an
acconnt of the discovery of the largest glacier
in the world, in Alaska, which bears his name
Mr. Muir made his voyage at the beginning of
the winter season, and was accompanied only
by a missionary and a party of Alaskan In.
dians. They were called upon to endure
many hardships, and not a few dangers. Mr.
Muir thinks that the rate of recession of the
glaciers is much more rapid than is generally
believed. He holds that the great Glacier Bay
isentirely the growth of this century, as Van.
couver’s chart, made a hundred years ago, has
no trace of it.
The Century Company has issued a new pos”
ter by Eugene Grasset for the June number
of The Ceatury Magazine. It illustrates Prof
Sloane's Life of Napoleon. and is no less
striking in its way than Grasset’s famous
“Sun of Austerlitz,” which has already be-
came so well known in this country. The sub-
ject is Napoleon in Egypt, just preceding the
Battle of the Pyramids. Napoleon is seated
upon his white charger, which has rich bar-
baric trappings of red and gold. The arm of
the conqueror is extended, pointing to the
Pyramids, as if uttering his ringing address,
“Soldiers, forty centuries look down upon you
from the summit of the Pyramids.” Fast him
march the troops. The yellow glare of the
desert, the dun-colored sky and the brilliant
uniform of Napoleon make an unusual har"
mony of color. During the present craze for
poster-collecting, examples by Grasset are the
most highly prized of all. The Century Com-
pany will issue a special edition of this poster
for collectors, each copy signed by the artist.
In addition tothe usual variety of topics,
the June Forum has two striking features :
the debate about ‘“Coin’s Financial School”;
and a group of three striking educational pa-
pers—by Dr. Rice, President Thwing, and Mr.
E. P. Powell.

it possible for us to actually save
you a five dollar bill on a ten

Our profit on the whole is just as
large as if we sold only 74 as many.
The gap made in our stock by your
liberal patronage last week has been
filled and we are ready once more
to please all comers, even better
than before. The season being so
far advanced enabled us to make
several large purchases of suits that
were intended to retail at from
$18.00 to $20.00. We have plac-
ed them on our counters at the
quick sale price of $10.00. You
had better join your neighbor, get
