TrE FURNACE WiLL Nor Stor.—
The directors of the Valentine iron
company met here, on Tuesday, to trans-
act whatever of business there was for
Of course the re-
cent ruling of the supreme court direct-
ing the out-put of the furnace to be
shi pped over the Pennsylvania railroad
was talked about, but there was no in-
timation of the probability of the fur-
nace going out of blast.
There has been a story afloat that if
the Valentine company is not allowed
to ship over whatever lines it finds most
desirable the furnace will be closed.
This is only rumor, however, and none
of the officials would say anything about
it in the absence of president J. Wesley
Gephart. oe
It is known that thé supreme court
has reaffirmed its decision in the case of |
the Bald Eagle railroad, and the Penn-
sylvania railroad companies against the
Nittany Valley railroal company and
and the Valentine iron company. The
original decision was favorable to the
Pennsylvania railroad and its associate
plaintiff. The suit was to restrain the
Valentine iron company from shipping
its product, having a freight value of
from $150,000 to $200,000, annually,
over the Nittany Valley road, and
thence via Reading to a market.
The Pennsylvania claimed the traffic
by virtue of a contract with the Center
iron company. The Centre iron
company, in 1890, was sold by the
sheriff, and subsequently purchased by
J. W. Gephart, who organized the pres-
ent Valentine iron company.
At the meeting, on Tuesday, Robert
Valentine, treasurer ; John P. Harris
and O. H. Reighart, of Williamsport,
were appointed a committee to confer
with the Pennsylvania railroad com-
pany relative to the relations existing
between them. It is probable that if
amicable terms cannot be agreed upon
an appeal will be carried to the ‘U.S.
court. In the event of its sustaining
the supreme court the outcome is a mat-
ter of mere conjecture, but we would
not be surprised to see the Valentine
iron company hand the whole plant
over to the Pennsy and tell it to operate
it.
A BirtHDAY PARTY.—Last Thurs-
day was the forty-fourth anniversary of |
the birth of Mrs. Uriah Gates, whose |
home, near Warriorsmark, was made the
sceno of a jolly party in commemoration
of the day.
A large number of guests were present
from Tyrone, Birmingham, Eden val-
ley, Warriors-mark township, Hunting-
don Furnace, Gatesburg and Rock
Springs.
After a sumptuous feast the many
pretty presents that had been given Mrs
Gates, as mementoes of her natal day,
were displayed. Among them were:
an extension table, two table covers,
seven pair towels, table linen, two
lamps, silver spoons and numerous oth-
er useful articles.
Ia the evening the young folks en-
joyed a party in their honor and alto-
gether a most enjoyable time was had
by all. Mrs. Gates has the WAT: | po State, at a salary of ($1,500 per an-
MAN'S best wishes.
Praxs ror HoLpING FARMER'S IN-
STITUTES.—It is altogether likely that
superintendent of institutes John Ham-
ilton, will make some radical changes in
the manner of holding farmer’s insti-
tutes throughout the State. A circular
has lately been issued from his office
which_will solicit expressions of opinion
on the question from prominent agricul-
turists in all parts of the State.
Mr. Hamilton’s idea is to hold all
sessions in the country or small villages,
rather than in large towns. He thinks
halls should be provided free and that
it would be better to hold four institutes
of a day each in as many different parts
of a county than to devote the entire
time to one or two places.
He urges the breaking in of local
help, so that home instructors are
brought forward and, in general, his
suggestions seem very practicable and
will doubtless result in a more efficient
work along these lines.
Dreap DIPHTHERIA.—In our last
issue we noticed the death of little Wil-
lie, a son of Mr. Walter Whippo, of
this place. When he died it was not
clear whether it had been diphtheria or
not that had caused his death, but soon
after his mother and two more children
were taken ill with the same complaint.
One of the little ones, a 3 year old boy,
died last Friday and was buried that
night. The other patients will recov-
er. .
We trust the family will soon be re-
lieved of this terrible scourge.
—— Communion services will be held
Sunday morning in the Methodist
church and in the evening Rev. Dr.
Monroe will preach. Last week the
lecture room was so crowded at the
evening meetings that this week the

blind singers from Philadelphia, who
have “added so much interest to the
meetings, will be here until Monday

the Patton-Heins farm, near that place,
and broke three ribs and otherwise in-

——The prompt appearance of Miles-
burg’s new hook and ladder company
saved Henry Dyke's house, in that place,
the other day. ' [t had caught fire from
a defective flue.
——The company store at the Ches-
ter Hill fire brick works, near ~Philips-
burg, was entered by burglars, on Tues-
day night, and seventy-five dollars
worth of goods were carried off, besides
several dollars in cash. :
——The Presbyterian Synod adjourn-
ed at Butler, last week, to meet here in
1896. The meeting of the Huntingdon
Presbytery, that was to have been held |
here next spring, has been changed to
Hollidaysburg instead.
——-The new silk mill that will em-
ploy several hundred operatives will be
located at Sunbury. Ome public spirit-
ed man said that he would furnish all
the money to procure it, even if no one
else would pay a cent.
——Mrs. Jane Rhule, mother of
Mrs. Sue J. Derr, of this place, died at
the home of her son, George, in Phil-
ipsburg, on Wednesday. Deceased was
87 years old and died with cancer of the
head. Funeral services were held
Thursday afternoon.
——According to a Harrisburg spe-
cial, on Wednesday, Mary V. Rhone,
daughter of Leonard Rhone, of Centre
Hall, has been appointed clerk to Dr.
B. H. Warren, economic zoologist of
num. Mrs. Cyrus Gordon, of Clearfield,
was also appointed a member of the
women’s auxiliary committee to the At-
lanta exposition.
——A Tyroner, who has lately be-
come a farmer at Hickory bottom, re-
cently bethought himself that he would
of his corn harvested at once. Accord-
ingly be invited six of his friends from
Tyrone and fifty-six from the Bald
Eagle valley. The former party, arriv-
ing first, set to work and husked 92 of
the 250 shocks in the field. The Bald
Eaglers stripped only 78 shocks and
then thought it was eating time, leaving
80 unfinished shocks.
——Among the new advertisements
that appear in this issue is one offering
the fine brick dwelling of M. W. Cow-
drick, on east Linn street, this place,
for sale. For anyone desiring to pur-
chase a desirable home at a very reason-
able price this is an opportunity not of-
ten afforded. The location is one ot the
moat charming in Bellefonte and is in
the finest residence portion of the town.
Everything about the place recommends
it to purchasers and it is altogether
likely that it will be sold before very
long. Mr. Cowdrick intends moving
to Niagara Falls, to be in closer touch
with his extensive business interests
there, else he would not think of dispos-
ing of his comfortable home here.
—— Last fall the borough paid some-
thing over six thousand dollars to have
the dirt dug out of Curtin street. A
gang of men is now at work covering
up the limestone, that were put there at
such great expense, with dirt again.
The people of that vicinity were justi.
fied in complaining that the street was
next to impassable, but the street com-
mittee should be called to explain why
dirt is being pat on there again. If the
town could afford to pay six thousand
dollars to have the stone put tbereit can
atford to spend as many hundred to have
them covered with crushed limestone, !
rather than lose the whole sum by put- |
ting the street into the same condition it
was before any work was done on it.
THE GREAT BROWNIE SPECTACLE.—
It will be at the Lycoming opera house,
Williamsport, Wednesday and Thurs-
day nights, Nov. 6th and 7th, with a
grand matinee, Thursday, Nov. 7th.
The most remarkable spectacular pro-
“duction ever yet presented on any stage,
“Palmer Cox’s Brownies,” which is of
such a costly and elaborate nature that it
"can be shown only on the stageof the
largest theaters throughout the country,
will be seen in all its vast metropolitan
entirety. During this important en-
gagement excursions will be run from
various points to give out-of-town peo-
ple their only opportunity of witnessing
the magnificent production, which ran
for 150 nights to crowded houses at the
14th St. Theater, New York, where the
newspapers and magazines devoted,
whole pages to the description of its
scenes of dazzling splendor. Such
grand effects as a thrilling shipwreck, a
terrible, realistic earthquake and vol-
cano, and the instant destruction of a
magnificent palace are presented in a
way that has been hitherto unattempt-
ed.
The very height of stage-art has been
reached in'these grand climaxes. The
final transformation. “A Night in
BroWwnieland,” showing in marvelous
hues the unfolding into glorious life of
the moonflower
cereus, is of such magnificience that
words fail to describe it. It is well-
worth going miles to see. Over 100 of
the highest-salaried artists are necessary
for the gorgeous production. The
world-famous Brownies are surrounded
by beautiful women. There are large
ballets, choruses and wonderful acrobats
engaged abroad. Palmer Cox, the fa-
mous ‘‘Brownie man,”” whose name is a
household word in every land, has
charge of every performance. The
manager of the Lycoming opera house
will aid out-of-town patrons in every
way possible to secure good seats. Mai}
orders for seats will receive prompt at-
tention.
It is possible that an excursion will be
run over the Central R. R. of Pa., for
one of these entertainments. If the
plans mature the rate will be announced
by heralds.
WHAT THE BALTIMORE SUN SAYS. —
Among the theatrical notes in the Bal-
timore Sun we found the following
mention of an attraction manager Gar-
man has booked for his house, next
‘Wednesday night :
“Do you want to laugh ? If so, see
“The two Johns’ at the Lyceum thea-
tre: J. C. (Fatty) Stewart and Paul
Dresser appear as the ‘‘Johns.”” These
funny fat men have made themselves
famous the world over and their laugh-
able personality has made the play
equally famous. There is no blood-
curdling and mysterious plot in the
play of “The Two Johns.” Just sim-
ply a case of mistaken identity, and the
resemblance which two fat men bear to
one another, which gets them into all
sorts ot ridiculous scrapes. The sup-
porting company is a good one, in-
cluding a number of clever specialty
performers.”

tary Cota, Maurice Jackson, Samuel Taylor

reports that he is doing very well. His head-
quarters are at Williamsport.
—Sol. Peck Esq. was up from Nittany, on
Monday, looking confident when spoken to
about the election next Tuesday. "Squire Peck
is ane of that class of Democrats whose faith-
fulness has never been impeached.
—R. C. Gilliland Esq. was an arrival from
Snow Shoe, on Wednesday evening. He is
one of the live Democrats in that end of the
county and reported things “old fashioned,”
which we judge to be Democratic, of course.
—Bellefonte’s two young tars, John Schrom

lar old sea-dogs.

City, on Saturday, to spend exactly one week
with his many Bellefonte friends. Mr. Ben-
ner is in the lumber business and from indi-
cations must be doing very well indeed. He
certainly looks as though life by the sea
agreed with him.
Things That Have Happened at State
College.
The M. E. church steeple has been much
improved by a good coat of paint.
Supt. of College farms, W. C. Patterson and
Mr. A. F. Markle returned, on Tuesday, from
a business trip to Pittsburg. ’
The College foot-ball team arrived home
safely Saturday night, very much pleased with
the out-come of their great game with Buck-
nell at Williamsport. Score, Penna. State 16 ;
Bucknell, 0.
The State College water company is laying
pipe about town and will soon connect their
pipe line from the mountain with the town
mains, and then we will have cool mountain
water that will taste of something else besides
lime-stone.
Many of our farmer friends about here have
had to haul water from the pump house for
their stock for quite a while. The wonder is
to us that more of them do not follow the ex-
ample of Markle, Musser, Lytle and others
and put down wells. It costs, of course, but
look at the convenience.
W. S.N.E.
ET
Port Miatilda Pointers
Mrs. Sara Barr, of Tyrone, is paying her pa.
rents a visit at this place.
W. J. Singer Esq. district attorney, was in
town the other day looking after his chances
for re-election and gave your correspondents
hearty shake.
Mrs. John McKelvy, of Martha, whose ill.
nes s we mentioned last week, stating that she
was so near death that her family had been
called to her bedside, is recovering and will
live. We are pleased to announce such good
news.
As we mentioned some time ago that we
were to have our grist mill run by steam we
desire to announce that a fine engine is now
driving the machinery in such a way that No.
1 flour is being turned out at a rapid rate. Your
correspondent had the pleasure of pulling the
string on the whistle the first time and he did
it to perfection too. Messrs H. J. Johnson
and J. G. Marks, two of our expert builders,
erected the engine house. Mr. Jones has
charge of the engine and is needless to say
that he makes it run like a daisy.
The other day one of our merchants pur,
chased a coal-oil stove for himself, but when
he attempted to fire it up he found that it
would not work. Accordingly he took it to
the blacksmith shop to have it overhauled but
to his chagrin, found that that gentleman
could do nothing with it. Back he went to
his store, with a mind not exactly as placid as |
the surface of the mill pond. There a travel-
ing salesman hailed him with accustomed
jocularity, begotten of anticipated orders, but
the merchant was in no mood for anything
but getting that stove fixed. The salesman
volunteered to fix it for him and started to
work like a fine fellow. It was not long until
he was all besmeared ith oil, howaver, and
he gave it up in disgust, leaving the store and
Mr. Merchant to fight it out with the stove.
A QUEER STATE OF AFFAIRS, —
What is called Twigg’s school house, in
Rush township, has been closed because
the number of scholars who would at-
tend there did not justify the expense of
keeping it open. The directors have
taken steps, however, to find a school
| for the few scholars by doing a thing
i that is most unusual. In fact it is the
! first case of the kind we have ever heard
lof,
Because Twigg’s school is no longer
open the directors have hired a convey-
ance to carry the children, who attend
there, to and from the Park school,
which is located within a mile of Phil-
ipsburg. The wagon goes back and
forth every day and is really a decided
| stroke of economy.

DeaTH oF Mrs. MARY BrLL.—Died
at the home of her son-in-law, William
A. Boal, near Centre Hall, Mrs. Mary
Bell, aged 87 years. Deceased was a
native of Mifflin county and after living
at Jacksonville, this county, for a long
time she removed to Tyrone where her
husband died in 1871. She remained
in Tyrone until about two years ago
when she moved back to this county, to
make her home with her daughter,
where she died after only a week's
illness.
The remains were taken to Tyrone
for interment, on Monday.

WHAT OVER-SEERS OF THE Poor
Must Do.—According to the decree
handed down by judge Love in the
Austin Linn, poor overseer, vs Rush
township, case it will bejunderstood that
an overseer of the poor is compelled by
law to provide food, clothing and shel.
ter for the needy in his charge, and that
all bills incurred by so doing must be
paid by the authorities of the township.
The action was brought by overseer
Austin Linn, who appealed from the
settlement of his accounts by the town-
ship auditors, when they refused to al-
low him a credit of $86.50 for the use of
a house owned by him and occupied by
peupers and for sundry supplies furnisk-
ed to paupers.
