A RunNawaY ENGINE.--To rail-road-
ers a run-a-way engine is about the
moet exciting occurrence that happens
and so rarely is such a thing beard of
that the thrilling tales, told occasionally
of the mad flight of some unguided iron
horse, are looked upon more as myths
than stern and awful realities. The fact
that an engine has been running loose
over the tracks of one of the many great
rail-road systems of the country is not
always a reflection on the management
or the carefulness of its employees, for
| such accidents invariably occur in the
most impossible and unheard of wajye.
Last Saturday the Bald Eagle valley
branch of the Pennsylvania rail-road
was the scene of a most exciting run-
a-way and though it turned out that the
night passenger train, east, was delayed
only two hours there might have been
far more serious consequences. .
Engine No. 1606, engineer Sausaman
and fireman Perry Ammerman, both of
Tyrone, driving it, was hauling a heavy
train of about fifty-five cars
on Saturday night. The train broke, a
short distance west of Unionville, leav-
| ing the engine and about ten cars in one

——You will see, on Monday, Jan.
20, at noon when Hi Henry’s big min-
strels make their appearance the swell-
lest parade ever seen in Bellefonte.
——An old gentleman who thinks he
knows told us, the other day, that there
wouldn’t be much use for sleighs this |
winter and it is beginning to look “as if
he really does know.
——“Foxy'' Miller, at one time a
resident of this place, lives in Altoona
now and is keeping up his well-earned
reputation for drunkenness, if the T7ib-
une of that place is to be believed.
——Mr. Simon Loeb is seriously ill at
the home of M. Fauble in this place.
He came up here from Philadelphia for
the benefit of his health and we are
sorry to say that it has not been im-
miles east of Unionville, the train ran
| together again with such force that tke
engineer was knocked clear out of the
window of the cab and the fireman was
thrown from the tender. The recoil
broke the couplings of the engine and it
sped away down the track.
Here was a pretty state of affairs. A
long train without anything to haul it,
an engineer and fireman seriously cut
and bruised by their unexpected tumble,
and a train crew two miles from a tele-
graph station realizing what awful
danger there was in this mad flight of
that unguided engine the lights of
which were skimming away, spectre
like, in the darkness.
As quickly as possible an account of
the accident was telegraphed to Tyrone
where the train dispatcher at once saw
the danger that a west bound freight
train, that should have been near How-
ard at that time, was in. The little
brass ticker rattled off an order to side
track the freight at Howard and give
the run-a-way right of track. The or-
der got there too late, however, for
the train had pulled out and was
steaming on to what seemed must be
a cortain wreck. There was no tele-
graph to Mt. Eagle so the agent at How-
proved.
——The Coleville boys have always '
been very generous with their music. |
Remember to reciprocate when thoy ask '
you to purchase a 25ct ticket to tha’
concert and dance to be given in their
band hall, Wednesday night, Jan. 22nd.
——Up to this time we have failed to
notice the appointment of Mr. B. W.
Guise, of Centre Hall, to be mercantile
appraiser for Centre county for the cur-
rent year. The appointment was made
by the county commissioners on the
3lst inst.
——Mr. W. L Steele,a man who has
made building contracting pay in Belle-
fonte and owner of some very desirable
Pine street properties, was a pleasant
caller Saturday evening. Mr. Steele is
one of the men who has’nt sawed wood
all his life for nothing. !
John Ishler, ot Benner township,
was one of those fellows who always
thought he could never be fooled by sur-
prise party makers. He has changed
his miad lately, as a great crowd of his
neighbors caught him napping in fine
style only a few days ago.
——Rev. V. T. Rue, pastor of the
second Methodist church at Tyrone,
filled his brother's, Rev. J. W. Rue's,
pulpit in this place at both services on
Sunday and pleased the congregation
very much. His sermons were enjoyed
by Bellefonte Methodists. Rev. Rue has
been conducting a very successful re-
vival in Tyrone.
——The musical convention that will
be held st Pleasant Gap next week
promises a great treat for the patrons of
music in that vicinity. It will be con-
ducted by Prof. P. H. Meyer and Mr.
A. J. Swartz and will be for the benefit
of the Lutheran church. The conven-
tion will attract many people to that
place.
—All next week the members of St.
Paul's A. M. E. church of this place
will conduct a fair and festival in the
vacant room a} the north end of the Ex-
change building, on Allegheny street.
Supper will be served every evening
during the week. If possible you should
patronize this undertaking as the col-
ored people must be assisted in main-
taining their church.
-—At a congregation meeting of
the Bellefonte Presbyterian church, held
in the chapel, on Tuesday evening,
Messrs. John C. Miller and Charles F.
Cook resigned from the board of
trustees and Col. Wm. Shortlidge and
Mr. Shem Spigelmeyer were elected to
fill the vacancies. Dr. R. G. H. Hayes
and '‘Col.” David F. Fortney were also
elected members of the board. The
congregation refused to vote in favor of
discarding the hymnal that has been in
use in the church for years and taking
up anew one. A report showed the
finances in a little better condition than
during the previous year.
ard hurried to the telephone to have
Curtin’s Works stop the freight should
it arrive at tbat point, before the run-
a-way should get there. Hon. Harry
Curtin received the message and, com-
prehending the great danger to those all
unconscious of it, ran to the rail-road
where he was just in time to stop the
train. Fearing that there would not be
time to get it in on a siding they left it
stand on the main tracks and opened
the switches so that the engine, that
was just then sighted away above, could
pass. While a number of men piled
logs and ties on the track to ditch it
the engineer ran ahead to try to jump
on and stop it. Neither plan succeeded
for the engineer was thrown down and
considerably cut while the obstructions
were knocked helter-skelter without in
any-way impeding the progress of the
the engine. As if maddened by these
attempts to stop it it increased its speed
from about 15 miles an hour to at least
80 as it started on the down grade on
the other side of Curtins’. The en- Jy when only seven years old.
gineer of the rescued train uncoupled
his engine and started in pursuit. The
race was stiff for awhile, but when the
run-a-way struck the heavy grade on
this side of Mt. Eagle it had exhausted
its steam and stopped. :
Had it not been for the timely action
of the people at Howard and Curtins’
Works we might have had a tale of
death and sadness to record rather than
one of mere excitement.
The night passenger train had to
push the dead cars clear to Snow Shoe
Intersection before it could get around
them and as a result it was two hour's
late. : :
A Promising YouNe Man's Ux-
TIMELY DEATH.—Death seems most
cruel when its relentless hand beckons a
man, just giving promise of a useful
life as was John Meyer, aged 23 years,
of Boalsburg, when he took sick and
died at bis home on Sunday evening.
The ‘young man had taught in the
public schools of that vicinity until his
ambition fora higher intellectual attain.
ments prompted him to enter Franklin
and Marshall college at Lancaster, where
he was recognized as a hard student,
and had labored zealously in prepara-
tion for the ministry for two years.
About two weeks prior to his death he
came home to spend his Christmas vaca-
tion and was soon stricken with erysipe-
las. Rheumatism that involved the
heart, followed and ended in his death.
Notwithstanding all the anxious minis-
trations of fond parents and good physi-
cians his life was not spared to be ot
use as its opening years promised.
He was the oldest of the two boys in
the family and it seems particularly sad
_ that fond parents should be bereft of
one in whom so much of hope had been
centered.
Funeral services were held at his late
home, on Wednesday morning, at 9
o’clock.

——Ex-Sheriff and Mrs. Wm. A.

poor health for some time, and had just
started on the return when the freight
train from Lewisburg caught them on

gine whistled when scarcely ten rods
away. The horse was on the track then
and that they escaped at all is most
miraculous.
——Train-men on the Beech Creek
railroad had quite an exciting time with-
two drunken woodsmen last Wednes-
day evening. After paying their fare to
Monument, a small station up in the
mountains, they became obstreperous
and thought they owned the train. Well,
the conductor, his brakeman, the ex-
press messenger and a passenger named
Agen went to show them that the road
really belongs to other parties and a
free fight ensued. All were more or less
battered up by the time the train reach-
ed Beech creek where the drunks were
put off. Unfortunately Agen had to get
off at the same place and it is reported
that they then turned in and licked him
good, while those whom he had helped
went steaming up the road feeling their
muscles and longing for another en-
counter after the danger of having one
was past.

SURPRISE PARTY.—Last evening the
large and commodious parlors at the
home of recorder W. Galer Morrison, on
east Bishop street, were feloniously en-
tered by a lot of conspirators, who “held
the carpets” until the wee sma hours,
It was a surprise party -getten pp in
honor of Galer’s thirty seventy®birth-
day by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Rightnour.
The time was spent most joyously, and
at eleven o'clock the dining room was
thrown open to the guests. The table
was spread with almost everything the
appetite of the mest pronounced gour-
mand could desire and it was unan-
imouely voiced that what Mrs. Right-
nour doesn’t know about getting up a
fancy “lay out” is not worth knowing.
Mr. Morrison received a number of
valuable presents as a reminder that his
friends are legion. As he is still on the
boards, marked ‘for sale,” we would
suggest that here is a good catch for
some enterprising young lady who is
not afraid to assert her leap year rights.
Everybody was happy and if anyone
was happier than another it was Galer.
May he live to enjoy many more such
delightful occasions.
NitTaNY VALLEY WiLL BE Stuck
Ur.—In describing the impressions of
her first trip over the Beech Creek and
Central railroad of Pennsylvania lines,
from Philipsburg to this place, Anna V.
Williams, editor of the Philipsburg
Ledger, tells the truth about Nittany
valley in these words :
“The lovely agricultural country
opened up by the C. P. railroad is a
most welcome change, while to the
strangers resident in Philipsburg and
vicinity the beautiful broad acres of
fertile farms within our county ure a
revelation. Nittany valley, from Mill
Hall up, is one of the pet spots in Penn-
sylvania, and the thrifty farmers live in
the midst of plenty and comfort. Our
county is rich in natural gifts, and this
valley abounds in productive farms, rich
red ore banks and valuable lime stone,
surrounded by mountains clothed In
second growth timber, valuable for
many different purposes.”
A ROMANCE IN IT.--The recent wed-
ding ot H. S. McMinn, a well known
DuBois man, and Miss Cora Fisher,
daughter of Wm. P. Fisher, Esq., pro-
prietor of the Bald Eagle nurseries at
Unionville, had just a thread of romance
in it, but quite enough to give Cupids’
dart a more interesting cast.
The Du Boise (ourier alludes to it in
this way . “A thread of romance at-
taches to the wedding. Miss Fisher was
here some time since, and prior to the
marriage of Mr. and Mrs. McLear, Mr.
McMinn meeting her, formed an attach-
ment for her. During the courtship
which ensued the parties, who were yes-
terday united in marriage, unexpectedly
learned that they were acquainted in
childhood’s days and that their parents
were forwerly warm friends and closely
connected.”
BoArLsBUrRG'S NEW PHYSICIAN.—
Dr. Thomas O. Glenn has located at
Boulsburg where he will practice medi.

Cincinnati and gives promise of becom-
ing one of the best physicians in the
county. He is a bard student and keeps
well abreast of the remarkable advance
in the treatment of disease.
Courteous and conscientious we can
heartily recommend him.to the people
of that Vicinity a8 & young man who
can be thoroughly relied upon. In ad-
dition, he will have the advantage of
consultation with his brother, the well
known Dr. W. 8. Glenn, of State Col-
lege.

sion a block taken from a birch corner,

ways sought by politicians.
—Mr. A. H. Hosterman, of Boalsburg, was’nt
in town on Wednesday, but he sent his emis-
sary, Mr. Austin Dale, in to see ws. A crisp
new bill, with his compliments, was very ac-

from the sender would have been.

A MERCIFUL RETURN. —Tt must have
been some rare animal instinct that led
Abner McCloskey’s horse to return to
him after he had fallen from it and in-
jured his ankle so that he could not
walk, while bunting cattle in the
“Tangascootac’ back of Eagleville last
Friday.
Mr. McCloskey lives near Beech
Creek and rode out on horse back to
round up his cattle that had gone to the
wouds that day. His horse, not being
roughed, slipped and fell on the ice in-
juring the rider so as to leave him help-
less by the road-side. Strange as it wil]
appear, a half hour after the horse had
galloped off in the direction of home it
returned to the injured man. Just at
that time a traveler passed along and he
helped Mr. McCloskey to get astride the
horse, after which he rode home without
further trouble aside from his suffering
with a very severe sprain.
The cackling of geese once saved
Rome; a faithful dog, has, in many in-
‘stances, saved its master and here is a
case of rare horse intuition that possi-
bly saved a man from freezing by the
side of-a mountain road.
GROWING IN GREATNEsS:—In his
last week's issue Mr. Speer, of the
Gazette, poked his fingers in under his
vest and tickled himself over having
made what he was pleased to call an
‘‘enthusiastic address” at the recent
camp-fire in Gregg post rooms in this
place.
We call attention to this rather re-
markable evidence of conceit merely to
| suggest that the gentleman read up the
little passage about the mote and the
beam before he indulges his passion for
condemning such short-comings in
others.
SHE SPED AwAyY.—Just as Dr. Har.

Away,” during a weekly prayer service
in the Kane memorial church, at Kane,
Pa. last Thursday evening, she sank in

the two physicians who were in the
