Last Saturday the school board met and
passed a final judgment on the new
school house at Guyer. They heartily
congratulated William B. Ward on the
way and time in which he had completed
his father’s work. The contract was
awarded to the late Joseph Ward, but as
he was taken sick soon afterward, his son
Wm. B. finished the work.
DEATH OF ANDREW HOUSMAN.—On the
evening of the 18th—just as the sun was
sinking beyond the western horizon, the
spirit of Andrew Housman took its
flight to the realms beyond. Mr. Hous-
mean was born near Spring Mllls, May 5th,
1812. Of German descent most of his life |
was spent in Centre county with the ex.
ception of a few years when he lived in
Blair county ona farm which is now a
partof Altoona.
For years he successfully followed
farming in this and Harris townships
and nowhere was there a more
hospitable or kind man. His home was
ever open to visitors and travelers and
they were sure of a hearty welcome. He
was a consistent member of the Lutheran
church which he joined when only a boy.
Politically he was a Democrat of the old
Jeffersonian type, true and reliable,
His wife, Elizabeth Grenoble and their
seven children, Rev. John, Frank, Wil
liam and Andrew of Altoona, Edom of
the State College, Caroline and Elizabeth
at home survive him and mourn the loss
of a kind good father, and an honest, up.
right citizen. Rev. Aikens conducted |
the funeral services which were held on
the afternoon of the 20th. Afterwards
his body was taken to Altoona, where it
was laid to rest in Oak Grove cemetery in
the pre ence of a large concourse of
friends.
Howard Happenings.
Editor Harter, of the Gazette, Robert Hunter,
and several others were in our vicinity fish-
ing for bass on Wednesday of this week.
Prof. L. N. Christie, of the Eastman Busi-
ness Coliege, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., spent
Tuesday in town renewing the friendship of
his former students.
Mr. Robert Holter, who holds a position in
Rochester, N. Y. and who, some time ago; was
very ill with typhoid fever, arrived at home
on Tuesday evening. He will remain some
time to regain his former health,
Sheriff John Condo's smiling tace was seen
on our streets two days this week. He was
attending to the sheriff's annual duty of re-
moving obstructions from Bald Eagle creek,
such as fish baskets, wing walls, ete.
Rev. Stapleton, presiding elder of the Unit
ed Evangelical church of the centre district,
preached a very able sermon in this place on
last Sunday evening to a large and very atten-
tive congregation, the text Rom- 8-29.
Mr. H. A. Moore, our genial P. M., iy quite a
fisherman. One day last week he was out
fishing for black bass and caught several very
nice ones but the largest of all (?) got off his
hook just as he was about to pull it out of the
water.
The people of this borough who are contin-
ually grumbling about the water supply being
short, should feel thankful that we are no‘ in
the position Altoona was one day this week,
when they were left one evening without
water enough to prepare the evening meal.
The publicschools opened here on the 16th
inst. with the following corps of teachers :
Prof. King, of Renovo, principal and teacher
of HighSchool ; Jos. L. Gardner, grammar ; R-
Hockman, intermediate and Miss Alice Dor-
worth of Bellefonte, primary. Prof. King is
starting in very good, and we predict that he
will have better schools than this borough has
had for a long time.
Mr. W. B. Henderson, who for a long time
resided atthe Howard rolling mill, one mile
east of the borough, now occupies his own
house on Pine street. Since purchasing said
place Mr. Henderson has made numerous im-
provements about the property, such as
weather boarding, painting, building out
buildings etc., and it is now one of the nicest
buildings in town.
Things That Have Happened at State
College.
Mr. Wm. H. Knarr, of Pine Grove Mills, has
been appointed night watchman in the College.
We noticed Hon. James Schofield shaking
hands with his many Democratic friends in
this place a day or so ago.
Quite a large number of our people attend-
ed the Grangers picnic, and a good many of
the students were down having a good time.
The great storm tore down many windmills,
‘trees, fences and small buildings, but did no
serious damage, for which we are all very
thankful.
Volney B. Cushing, recently gave one of his
characteristic political temperance talks in
the College Chapel for the benefit of a hand-
ful of our cold water friends.
Prof. Jno. M. Gregory, ex-Supt. of Public
Instruction of the State of Michigan, hss been
appointed tothe chair of political economy,
and his text book on that subject has been
adopted by the College.
The College has quite a number of hands
working on the new wagon road reaching to
the North gate. We hope they will build a
substantial walk for the accommodation of
the;many who use the gate.
The residence of Prof. Geo. C. Butz, was
enlivened on last Friday evening by the Chris-
tian Endeavor Society; whose members and
friends took possession of the handsome lawn
and held a very enjoyable sociable.
Mr. George C. Watson, of the Cornell Uni-
versity Experiment Station , has been appoin t-
ed Professor of Agriculture in the Pennsylva-
nia State College, and Agriculturist of the Ex-
periment Station, in place of Prof. H. J. Wa,
ters, who recently resigned to accept the
directorship of the Missouri Agricultural Ex"
periment Station.
Mr. Watson was graduated from the agricul-
tural course of Cornell University in 1881. In
1893 he received from Cornell the dagree of
M. S. in Agriculture. -
It is expected that Professor Watson will
enter upon his duties at the College early in
October.
Books, Magazines Etc.
——A magazine article that attracted wide
attention some months ago was Marion Craw.
ford’s presentment of the city of Washington
illustrated by Andre Castaigne. Author and
artist will work together again in a series” of
articles on Rome, soon to appear in The Cen-
tury. There will be three Papers, ‘A Kaleid-
oscope of gRome,” “St. Peter's,” and
“The Vatican,” and these will treat of
scenes not witnessed by casual visitors. As
both Mr. Crawford and Mr. Castaigne are mem.
bers of the Church of Rome, they may he ex-
pected to show a devoted sympathy with the
subjects thiey have chosen. Mr. Crawford is a
cosmopolitan in the largest sense, and it is
doubtful whether any other American is more
thoroughly at home in the Sacred City. The
illustrations will include striking restorations
of classical scenes.
The October number of Harper's Magazine
will open with a handsomely illustrated paper
by Edwin Lord Weeks on the troublous phase
of life in modern India, indicated by its title,
‘Hindoo and Moslem.” This article following
Dr. Thomson's paper on “Arabia—Islam and
the Eastern Question,” in the September
number, will give readers of Harper's Maga-
zine both the historical and present aspects of
-an important racial and religious problem.
