Port Matilda Pointers. !
The Gazette collector, a fine looking young
man, was looking up that paper's patrons in
this vicinity during the week. :
There must be something brewing as we
noticed special officer Barr, of the P.R. R. at
Tyrone, in town during the fore part of the
week. He is always on the alert for evil
doers.
“Mr. Harry Love, brother of his honor Judge
Love, and Mike McCann, of Tyrone, were in
town the other day making preparations for
the annual hunting expedition of their party.
They will camp on * ‘Six Mile” run.
Mr. William Hoover, one of our young and
successful merchants, parades our streets
with a very dignified air and an 8x10 smile
just now. All because a bouncing boy came to
his home on Tuesday last. He will make
another Democratic vote 21 years hence.
Meanwhile Billy should set up the cigars.
Last week we made mention of seve ral run.
aways. Justas we were maiiing our report a
horse came dashing into town, minus a driver,
and with a badly smashed up buggy dragging
behind it. The animal belonged to Thos. O.
Switzer, of Philipsburg, and had ran about
three miles from where the owner had left it
stand without tying. He will be more careful
in the future, we presume.
There was quite an excitement caused in
our village the other day by a man from Half
Moon township swearing out a warrant for Har-
ry Frantz whom he accused of having stolen
a horse from his stable last Sunday, during
the family’s absence from home: The services
of constable Martin Cowher were procured
and the young man was traced to Sandy Ridge
where he was arrested. He made no defense |
and was remanded to jail for court. |
A PLEASANT SURPRISE PARTY. —A few even: |
ings ago A. W. Reese, one of Port Matilda |
enterprising merchants, and his amiable wife i
on entering their home, after their day’s
work was done in the store, were greatly sur- |
prised to find seventy-five or more friends in |
possession. Cordial greetings were exchang- |
ed and although thoroughly surprised Mr. |
and Mrs. Reese gave every one a hearty wel- |
come. Cheery sociability, games and good |
natured jesting held high carnival 'til ten
o'clock when ali were invited into the dining
room where a feast fit for the gods was Spread.
Among the guests were Mrs. James Thomp-
son, Stormstown; Mrs. Jennie Henry and
Budd Thompson, Martha ; Miss Nettie Harp
ster and sister, Houtzdale; Henry Brindle |
and lady, Tyrone ; and Postmaster Philip !
Young.

with computing scales. !
Willis Ripka is down from Altoona for !
a week’s hunt. His wife, who is a very |
pleasant women, is making her first visit |
here. |
The young ladies, who met at the St.
Elmo last Saturday evening attired in
their best, were surprised that their bird !
had flown.
Except for a few showers all signs have
failed in this dry spell. Many wells and |
streams which have never been known to -!

O. B. Krebs has accepted a position as
salesman for the computing scales and !
will try his hand in Union county, where
he will have an opportunity to learn der

Our young friend, George Bailey, has
become quite a bicyclist and his frequent
trips from the Mountain City are general-
ly made in that way. Attractions very
dear to him are here.
We want to correct a statement in our
last letter. Mr. Stewart McCauley came
from Missouri where full and plenty |
abounds as well as low prices. Stewart
thinks that is truly the garden of the
world. {
The erect and portly form of Fletcher
Sausserman is daily seen on our streets.

Our old veteran friend, Pat. Hasson, is

Last week the poor dog’s number |
pro and con were discussed by a number
of persons before Squire Miller. The
Squire decided that a dog was personal
property, and hence the aggressor has
appealed to court fora further hearing.
DEATH OF A RESPECTED MAN.—On Mon-
day morning, the 18th, George Eckel, the
old veteran answered the last roll call and
went up higher to join the celestial army. |
He had been sick but a short time with
congestion of the brain; but for years |
had been ailing on account of wounds re- |
ceived in the army. He was born January !
18th, 1832, at the old Daniel Eckel home |
within sight of town, and with the excep. |
tion of his military career spent all his |
life in and about this town. September
3rd, 1855, he married Elizabeth Heston
and to them was born one son and two
daughters.
March 29th 1864, he enlisted in Co. F, 184,
P. V. as corporal, in which company
he served as a brave and patriotic soldier.
At the battle of Cold Harbor he had his
right hip fractured and was wounded
through the abdomen. On the organiza-
tion of Cap’t. J. 0. Campbell Post No. 272,
G. A. R. he was elected quartermaster to
which position he wasannually re-elected
always filling the position with fidelity
43 he did other local offices. He
was one of the ruling elders in the Re-
formed church, which he joined in early
boyhood and it was largely through his
efforts that the new Bethel church was
built. Politically he was a Democrat,
whose politics was never questioned.
During Cleveland's first adm inistration
he. was appointed postmaster at this
place ; but was never commissioned on
account of being a bondsman for the
mail carrier. During the presentadmin.
istration he was offered the place ; butre-
fused to have his name used .
His invalid wife, son, two brothers,
John, of Clinton county, and Daniel of
Minnesota, and two sisters, Mrs. W. A.
Tanyer, of Rock Springs, and Mrs. Wm. |
Graham, of Philipsburg, mourn the loss |
of a kind faithful relative. He looked !
well to the ways of his household, and to |
his home the latch string was always out.
In church, business and private affairs his
influence was always on the side of the
right. At 10 o'clock Wednesday morning
his body was taken to the Bethel church
and his friend and pastor Rev. A. A. Black
paid a plegsing and touching tribute to
one who Will long be remembered by the
community.

A Paper That Goes Ahead of All Every
Day.
Since the reduction of its price The
Pittsburg Dispatch aiways one of the
most popular and successful newspa-
pers of the United States, has had im-
mense gratifying results in two direc:
tions. Many thousands of new sub-
scribers have been added to its lists,
and hundreds are being added daily,
while every day shows the purpose of
the publishers to make The Dispatch,
i{ posgible, brighter, newsier and better
was no idle boast. - There are very few
newspapers in the United States that
can now compare with The Dispatch
in variety, volume or accuracy of its
oews, or in quality of its paper or
printing ; and none such between New
York and Chicago. At 10 cents per
week, delivered by carrier, The Dis:
patch is at once the cheapest and best
article on earth. It contains so much
news of all sorts wnot/given by other
papers as to pay for itself many times
over to all classes of readers.
