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. WaNTED—At Lyon & Co’s store, Bellefonte, 50,000 lbs. wool.

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. | i 1 | i Pine Grove Mention,’ Little Annie, the baby dsugiter ol Wm.

It is needless to state that they sported borrowed finery that evening while their own hung around the stove. DEATH oF MR. GATPs.— Mr. David Gates died at his home in Love- ville, last Friday the 2ith inst, atter a lingering illness of some months in the 64th year of his age. He was buried Sun- day morning in the Centre Line burying ground, with the Rev. Bergstresser of the First Lutheran church of Tyrone officia- ting. Mr. Gates wasborn at the old Gates home in Tadpole valley, and for many years was one of our prominent farmers and active workers for Jeffersonian prin- ciples in which faith he died. He was the father of a large family of children 3 of whom have preceded him to the grave. His wife suryives to mourn the death of a kind husband, and the neighbors a good citizen, the church a consistent member and the Democratic party one of its staunchest supporters. Editor C. S.

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. —1If you want printing of any dis- cription the WATCHMAN office is the place to have it done. Announcement. We are authorized to announce W.
