will be a benefit to all. Church street needs
repairing also.
Spring Mills.

C. P. Long the active merchant of our vil-
lage, is erecting a very handsome brick resi-
dence. The style of architecture is some-
what on the Gothic order. The location is
very desirable with charming scenery in all
directions. If I am correctly informed, Mr.
Long contemplates erecting several other
dwellings before the winter sets in.
The report started some time since, that
the tannery at Potter’s Mills, recently de-
stroyed by fire, would not be rebuilt in that
town, but would be organized into a stock
company and commence business in our vil-
lage, with Wm. Allison, C. P. Long and J.
W. Smith as owners has no foundation.
No such enterprise is in contemplation,
The supervisor expects to work on tlie new
road, (just granted) next week. This is a
road long needed, and in fact. will be a_con-
tinuation of the George's valley road direct
to our R. R. station, and a great advantage to
those residing in the eastern section of the
town. Asat present any one residing there
and wishing to take the train, must take a
long, circuitous drive to reach it, but when
this road is opened and finished it will be
perfectly level and direct.
Dr. J. B Leitzell and family from
Orangeville, Ills, and A. P. Leitzell, from
Girard, Kansas, formerly of our village,
who have heen here visiting relatives end
friends for several weeks, left for home, on
Wednesday last. On the evening previous,
the citizens band of Spring Mills tendered
them a serenade. The hand did rentarkably
well, and played several! pieces of music in
very excellent style, which was highly ap-
preciated and applauded by a arge concourse
of pecple who had heen attracted to the
neighborhood. The doctor delivered a very
neat and complimentary address, and re-
turned thanks to the band for the compli-
ment extended to them on this occasion.
Previous to retiring, the doctor made them a
very handsome contribution.
The political atmosphere here is somewhat
like the ~weather—waxing warm. The
county ticket does not appear to bather any
one particularly. The Republicans in this
latitude, have about abandoned their ma-
chine nominations and concede the elggtion
of the entire Democratic ticket by a one sid-
ed vote. The silver question has taken such
a firm hold of the people, the farmers es-
pecially, that the Republicans down this way
are utterly amazed and confounded, and
have discovered it to be an impossibillity to
check its onward course. A day or two since
I had a conversation with a prominént Re-
publican residing not far from Bellefonte,
who remarked that he was well safisfied that
their county ticket was lost—lost beyond res-
urrection, and had very grave doubts about
McKinley's success. This silver business of
the Democrats, and the masterly and vigor-
ous manner in which they are pushing the
question, apparently has taken considerable
vim—if not life, out of the Republican party.
The single gold standard may be all right
enough for those who think so, but for my
part he continued, I would prefer McKinley
on a silver platform than on the one he is,
and then some of the newspapers to call it re-
Col. McClure in a Bad Way. t
From the Lebanon Advertiser:
‘Those who have carefully read the Phiadel-
phia Times for the past few months may have
noticed some remarkable changes of front.
Befére the Republican convention at St.
Louis, while Hanna was engaged in buying
up delegates, black and white, for McKin-
ley, the Times kept denouncing McKinley
for his silver utterances, at the same time
figuring up the number of delegates pur-
chased, until he could count a majority.
Then the €¥mes spoke of his nomination as
assured, and unless ‘‘something unfore-
seen’’ should occur that his election was
‘‘reasonably certain ;”’ advising the Demo-
crats, however, to place a ticket in the
field—not with any hope of success, but to
keep the party together, The outlook at
that time was not promising, and if any-
thing was needed to discourage and dis-
hearten weak-kneed Democrats, it could be
got ad libitum from the Times Now,
however, ‘‘somethiing unforeseen’’ has oc-
curred, and we can no longer hear of the
‘reasonable certainty’ of McKinly’s elec-
tion. On the contrary there are manifest
signs of alarm, and the Times is appealing
to all classes of people to stem the tidal
: wave which it sees approaching. :

Reduced Rates to Grangers’ Picnic at
Williams’ Grove via Pennsylvania
Railroad.
For the accommodation of the persons de-
siring to attend this interesting picnic and
exhibition the Pennsylvania railroad com-
pudiation, anarchy and communism, what | pany will sell excursion tickets on August
supreme nonsense. Such clap-trap has no ef-
fect on the people in this age of intelligence,
and the sooner the Republicans cease such
folly—such childish warfare—the better it
will be for them. If all the Democrats and
supporters of Mr. Bryan were anarchists and
repudiators, what in the world would be-
come of the Republic?—Bosh, if that is what
is called a campaign of education, had we not
better change it, and enter into a canvass of
blackguardism ? It might be an improve-
ment. The fact is, when a party is forced to
vilify and misrepresent their opponents, it
simply proves that their own course is un-
sound and a very weak one.
Resolutions of Condolence.
The following resolutions in honor of James
Turner, deceased, were adopted by Grove
brothers post, No. 262, G. A. R., at Howard,
at a regular meeting, August 1st, 1896.
WHEREAS, in the providence of Almighty
God, death has invaded our post ranks, and
removed from our midst a kind husband,
good citizen, true patriot and highly es-
teemed and worthy member, and competent
officer of our post; therefore be it
Resolved, that in bowing our heads in sor-
row over this affliction we recognize: First,
life’s uncertainty and death’s certainty, and
second, that in the death of James Turner,
we lose the friendship and companionship of
a worthy citizen, and noble ex-soldier.
Resolved, that the sympathy of this post be
cordially tendered the widow and family of
our departed comrade in their affliction.
Resolved, that a certified copy of these reso-
lutions be published in the county papers,
and a copy of the same be presented to the
bereaved family.

Lore of Colors.
White is the emblem of light, religious
purity, innocence, faith, joy and life. In
the Judge it indicates integrity ; in the
sick, humility ; in the woman, chastity.
Red, the ruby, signifies fire, divine love
and royalty. White and red roses express
love and wisdom. Blue, or the sapphire,
expresses heaven, the firmament truth from
a celestial origin, constancy and fidelity.
Yellow or gold, is the sympol of the sun,
of marriage and faithfulness. Green the
emerald is the color of spring, of hope—
particularly of the hope of immortality
and of victory, as the color of the laurel
and the palm. Violet, the amethyst, sig-
nifies love and truth, or passion and suffer-
ing.” Purple and scarlet signifies things
good and true from a celestial origin.
Black corresponds to despair, darkness,
_earthliness, mourning, negation, wicked-
ness and death.
