MANY DEATHS IN THE WEEK.—We
past week. While there have not been
as many 88 in some weeks that have
passed there are still sufficient to remind
us that life is but ephemeral and that
none know what moment will mark its
close.

Livep HERE AT ONE TiMe.—Frank
Karstetter, the young man, aged 24
years, who died at Tacony, near Phila-
delphia, on Thursday last, was a resi-
dent of Bellefonte for a number of years.
He lived here with his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Harry Karstetter, the latter
having been Miss Nancy Seibert, a
seamstress, before marriage. When
they left Bellefonte Frank went to
Philipsburg where he followed the
plumbing trade for some time, finally
removing to Tacony from which place
his sudden death has been reported.
The remains were brought to Centre
Hall for burial, which was made on
Tuesday afternoon. His mother, who
is living at Tusgeyville, survives him.
I ll li
Mrs. Eliza Merry, wife of Hon. J.
W. Merry, of Beech Creek, died in a
hospital, at Williamsport, last Friday
afternoon. She had been taken there
some time before to undergo a surgical
operation, which proved too severe for
her recuperative powers. The remains
were taken to her late home, on Satur-
day, and interment was made on Mon-
day afternoon. Besides the husband,
four daughters and one son survive.
Deceased was 65 years old. The Rev.
S. W. Pomeroy, of Mill Hall, con-
ducted the services. The floral tributes
are said 10 have been particulariy beauti-
ful.
ll f I
Uriab Winkleman, aged 30 years and
leaving a wife and child, died at Nittany
last Friday after an illness that lasted
only a few days. Until recently he had
been » resident of Mackeyville.
i I A
Rev. S. L. M. Ccnser, nearly 85
years old, died at his home at Logan-
ton. last Thursday evening. Deceased
was. a retired Methodist minister, hav-
ing been a member of the east Balti-
more conference until 1871.
i I I
Mrs. Elizabeth Shunk died at the
home of John Hetzel, at North Aarons-
burg, last Monday night. Her interment
was rade in the Reformed cemetery.
i li il
At the age of 69 years, 5 months and
5 days William T. Mauck, a highly
Saturday evening. He had been ill
geven months with troubles of a com-
plicated nature. Having been born in
the town ir which he died he was nat-
urally known by everyone in that com-
munity. One brother, James C. Mauck,
and two sisters, Mrs. Sallie Alexander
and Mrs. Lydia Brumgart, survive him,
while his widow with one son, E. W.,
and daughter, Mary, are left to mourn
a devoted husband and father.
Deceased had been a consistent mem-
ber of the United Evangelical church
for 30 years and, in truth, was a good
man. Funeral services were held on
quartet in minstrel medleys. Every-
body is invited to the tea. ¢
——Day express, west, on the Bald
Eagle valley railroad struck a wagon
driven by N. Sullenberger, as it was
crossing the tracks at Howard, last
Thursday morning. The wagon wae
loaded with stone and was completely
demolished. Fortunately the horses,
in their fright, gave a jerk that dragged
the driver out of danger.
——1It has been some time since an
attraction has visited Bellefonte, in fact
theatre goers wiil be quite delighted to
hear that *‘Side.Tracked,’’ a pretty com-
edy, will be presented at Garman’s
opera house, next Wednesday night,
March 4th. The company that will pre-
sent it is one of Scammon’s, the manager
who has pleased Bellefonte audiences
with “the Burglar.”
——After May 4th ‘squire J. H. Reif-
snyder, of Millbeim, will retire from
public live. For more than a quarter
of a century he has faithfully and equi-
tably performed the grave duties of a
justice in Millheim, but failing bealth
will necessitate his retirement when his
present commision expires. He holds
five commissidns by election and two by
appointment.
——The Hindoo fakeers who were at
Garman’s, on Monday night, had very
poor business, but gave a really inter-
esting entertainment. While their feats
of magic are not executed with the same
skill and finesse that characterizes Eng-
lish magicians it is nevertheless a novel
sight to see the Indian perform his
tricks, without the aid of any other
agency than his tom-tom.
—— Last Friday morning aglittle boy
named Womer ontered Brinton's store,
in Philipsburg, crying with the cold.
The clerks thought he might be frosted
go they got a basin of water and put
his hands into it. Later the little fel-
low became drowsy and fell asleep. A |
physician was bestily summonedy but |
it required nearly an hour's hard work |
to revive the boy. He had a narrow
* escape.
Tuesday afternoon, Rev. J. J. Lobr
officiating.

snyder, of Millheim, and was just thirty
years old. Rev. Black, pastor of the Re.
formed church, of which she was &
men: ber, officiated at the burial services.
Her husband, who is left alone in his
grief, will have the sympathy of the
many friends he and his departed wife
made during a short residence in Belle-
fonta two years ago.

red at the home of her sister, Mrs.
Joseph Ward, at Pine Grove Mills, last
Saturday, at 2 o'clock, of heart failure.
Her sudden death was a shock to the
family, as she had just partaken of a
hearty dioner and was reclining in her
easy chair when suddenly she arose and
was attempting to walk to the bed when
her sister saw her sink to the flocr and
die before she * could reach her.
Miss Gill, with her sister Sarah, for-
merly lived on Water street, Bellefonte.

Mrs. G. W. Murphy of Brooklyn, N.
Y.

house and a dance at night were parts
of the program.
—Judga Williams, of the state
supreme court, has rendered a decision
that the courts can do nothing to aid a
person in recovering what has been lost

illegal transaction. :
——James Wilson, an English miner
from Chester Hill, was the first suicide
in the Clearfield county poor house.
Wilson kad been drinking heavily and

——The ‘“‘ex-priest’’. Ruthven got in-
to an altercation with the night clerk at
the Wayne hotel, at Dubois, on Mon-
day morning, and pulled a gun on him.
The man had asked him some puzzling
questions about his priesthood when he
flared up, but was prevented from shoot.
ing by the bystanders.
—— While Samuel Hoover wus driv-
ing out of Tyrone, on Saturday eve-
ning, for his home in the Bald Eagle
valley, a barrel of gasoline rolled out of
his wagon. Now for some unaccount-
able reason Samuel did not discover his
loss, but a small boy did and, smelling
the gasoline running in the gutter,
promptly applied a match to it. There
was a stream of fire fifty-foot long that
was sufficiently alarming to call out the
fire department.
——At the meeting of the directors
of the National league of base ball
clubs, in New York, on Monday, the
name of John M. Ward, formerly of
this place, was ordered to be stricken
from the reserve list of the New York
clab. Ever since John’s retirement the
New York management bas kept a
string or him through the reserve clause,
that allows any team to reserve any or
all of its players from season to season.
At his own solicitation his name was
taken off.
——Judge Metzger of Lycoming
county has just handed down a decis-
ion by which G. H. Kline, Republi-
can, is ousted from the office of burgess
of Jersey Shore and H. D.. Seeley,
Democrat, reinstated. The contest arose
over tho appointment of Mr. Seeley to
serve out the unexpired term of C. H.
Pott. Mr. Kline was lected for the
full term in 1895, but the court held
that the election was irregular because
a successor could not be lawfully elected
untii the full term of the preceding elec-
tion had been served.
——A gentleman was in town last
week conferring with the Bellefonte
board of trade in reference to establish-
ing a large manufacturing plant bere.
It was D. H. Fitzgerald, of Scranton.
During his stay here he wus in consul-
tation with several moneyed men to
whom he made a proposition to build a
manufactory for builder’s hardware, the
plant to employ, anywhzre from one to
two thousand men, but not less than
one thousand. Mr. Fitzgerald was
highly pleased with Bellefonte’s ad-
vantages and felt as if it ought to be a
leader in industries involving the out-
put of all sorts of iron novelties. The
proposition that has teen made is of
such a nature that it will hardly be ac-
cepted.
A . DisasTROUS FIRE, AVERTED. —
The effective work of firemen and some
others early on the scene prevented what
would otherwisé have been a disastrous
fire . the Reynolds’ bank building, on
thegorner of High and ‘Allegheny
streets; early last Tuesday morning. An
alarm was sounded at about 1:30 and it
was not long until the fire was discov-
ered to be on the second floor of the
building at the end of the north hall,
directly over the Jackson, Crider &
Hastings baok and”in the narrow pas-
sage leading to the private office of Col.
W. Fred Reynolds. In fact it was the
watchman at the bank who discovered
the fire when bits of burning timber be-
gan to fall down through the ceiling of
the toilet room in the bank.
Both companies were ai the scene
early. Lines of hose were run into the
building and it was not long until the
fire was put out, though it was with the
greatest difficulty that the firemen were
able to cope with it successfully, owing
to the suffocating volumes of smoke that
poured out the hall-ways. The build.
ing had been closed and as the fire had
been burning for some time before its-
discovery the smoke was exceedingly
troublesome. This fact probably saved the
building for if the flames had had a
draft there would have been far more
destruction. As it was the floor along
the hall-way, for a distance of about ten
feet, was burned through, as were the
joists underneath. The doors and
frames at both entrances to Col. Rey-
nolds’ office, were burned out, while his
private office was considerably scorched
and effectually ruined by the water. The
fiames had eaten their way well up
along the partition to the’ Masonic
halls above, when they were stopped,
just in time to save those handsomely
fitted quarters. .
Two holes were burned through the
ceiling in the bank’s private office.
Considerable water ran down there, but
no serious damage was done, the count-
ing room having escaped entirely.
Kurtz’a book store, next door, suffered
a douching at the back end that ruined
considerable small stock. This, with
the ruin of Col. Reynolds’ offices and
the damage to the building, covers all.
The cause of the fire is a mystery.
The building is heated throughout with
steam and though the hall door leading
to the street was unlocked, it was closed,
and the only occupants of the upper
stories are the Masons and Col. Ray-
nolds. The idea that it was an electric
light wire that set it afire is hardly a
plausible one, for while there is a wire
in the ball at that point it runs on the
ceiling and there is every indication
that the fire began on the hall floor, di-
rectly in front of the door-way, the one
door having been entirely consumed.
It might have been caused by a lighted
cigar dropped on the floor-mat or in a
number of different ways, but its exact
origin is and will likely remain a
mystery.
All the loss is covered by insurance.
PHOSPHATE DEPOSITS .IN JUNIATA
CounTYy.—Professor M. C.” Iblseng,
head of the department of mines and
mining at The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege, is investigating what is. serpposed
tobe a very rich deposit of phosphate
rock in Juniata county.
“Three classes of phosphatic materials
have thus fo- been discovered. The first
is a friable white rock, containing in
typical specimens from 29 to 54 per cent
of bone phosphate. The second consiets
of red modules, similar in appearance to
the so-called ‘‘clay iron-stones,” but con-
taining from 45 to 52 per cent. of bone
phosphate, and alumina. The third
class of material consists of blocks of
what appears to be a dense blue lime-
stone, but which proves, cn analysis, to
contain in the neighborhood of 40 per
cent. of bone phosphate of lime.”
These deposits might prove very val-
uable to the communities in which they
are located, as they can be readily con-
verted into the phosphate of commerce
at the mills in Philadelphia and other
eastern cities.
“SIDE-TRACKED” AT THE STANDARD:
—To a large and appreciative audience
last night the management of the Stand-
ard Lheatre offered the popular melo-
drama *‘Side- Tracked.” The play has
been much improved since its early per-
formance here, and as produced last
night it provides an excellent entertain-
ment. The principal figure in tive-piece
is a tramp, through whose persistent ef-
forts & mysterious crime is finally cleared
up. This part was assumed by Mr Harry
Tansey, a capital dialect character actor,
who kept the audience constantly ‘‘on
the laugh.” In support are Daisy
Chapman, a pert aud vivacious sou-
brette ; Mike Callahan, in an Irish part,
and Billy Bowlers, a first-rate German
comedian. Some of the scenic effects
are sensational.— Philadelphia North
American.
uSide-Tracked’” will appear at Gar-
man’s, next Wednesday night, March
4th. =
——A horse which Mrs. Jerry Roan,
of Buffalo Run, had driven tc town got
frightened while tied on Allegheny
street, Wednesday afternoon, and be-
fore it could be managed it bad smash.
ed the buggy end harness.
——0C. G. Nissley, former owner of
the Tyrone Times, has decided not lo
locate in Carliggpius bas shipped his
entire out-fit to “Harrisburg, where he
will open a job office.
——To-night a missionary lea will be
given at the home of Mre. L. A. Schaet-
fer, on east Curtin street. Chocolate,
coffee, tea and wafers will be served. A
number of vocalists will sing during the
evening. Mrs. Schaeffer's Sunday school
class will receive. Everyone is invited.
——The thirty-second annual report
of the Brooklyn life insurance com-
pany of New York, whichappears else-
where in the WATCHMAN, makes a
most favorable showing. The assets
amount now to $1,784,208, which is con-
siderable gain over last year, while the
surplus, compiled by the new standard
(4 per cent.) is $195,820. In fact, dur-
ing the year 1895, the Brooklyn life
increased the amount of its assets, in-
creased its income, increased its surplus,
and increased its insurance force.
——Nearly everybody in Bellefonte
will remember Danny Wysotsky when
be used to live here. Well Danny runs
the Leonard house at Clearfield now
and while he has been in the hotel busi-
ness for some time he has discovered
that there are still a few things for him
to learn. The other day a man, look-
ing like a laborer, dropped into the
Leonard and registered : “I. G. Brit-
ton, Emporium.” He lived at the ho-
tel several days, apparently relishing
his meals and well pleased with his com-
fortable room, but on Wednesday after-
noon he toted his grip down stairs and
handed it to Danny. He said he thought
he would leave town, but wasn’t sure of
it, so he just had his grip put in the
office so he could get it quick. He left
then and hasn’t been back yet. After
‘wo days the proprietor opened the
satchel to find that it contained two
fire brick and a worn out under-ghirt.
The brick had given it weight enough
to fool Danny into believing it contain-
ed something of value.
