C. O. Malory, Dr. T. C. Hosterman and |
J. N. Moyer were elected as delegates to the
county convention, and we are glad to state
that they all have the true silver ring in this
yellow colored precinct.
The delegate election this year resembled
a Republican caucus in one respect, in that
the voters had to be sent for, but the Repub-
licans have the advantage as they phone
them together while the Democrats must
hound them together.
We are glad to state that Miles township
was well represented as delegates and substi-
tutes by E. Miller, of West precinct. T. C.
Hosterman, H. A. Detwiler and H. E. Bierly,
of middle precinct, and Jerome Meyer, of the
East precinct. C. 0. Malory and J. N. Mey-
er could not go on account of previous busi-
ness arrangements.
Following are the teachers of Miles town-
ship® Madisonburg, Messrs. Yearick and
Hazel ; Rebersburg, Prof. Hosterman, Henry
Detwiler and Forest’ Emerick. Thos. Au-
man at Harter’s ; Chas. Smull, at Gramley’s :.
Ammon Weaver, at Wolf’s; Wm. Limbert, at
Brumgart’s ; and Calvin Ziegler at Stover’s
school house.
The teacher's examination, last Saturday, at
Rebersburg, was characterized by the super-
intendent’s usual fairness and perfect justice.
The five following were elected: Charles
Smull, Ammon Weaver, Calvin Ziegler, Mr.
Brumgart, of Wolf's Store, and Mr. Tate, of
Lemont. All passed and received fine papers
as the examination was above the average.
The teacher showed considerable acquaint-
ance with current news and literature and
civil government. At certain intervals the
examination became quite interesting to the
many visitors present. Mr. Gramley’s exam-
inations have become quite instructive and
even popular to the teachers, directors and
visitors of all grades and shades of intelli-
gence. Quite a number of complimentary
short addresses were given by the visitors at
the close.
REBERSBURG’S WOMAN ARCHITECT.—As a
general rule in this town what one knows
the others will find: out in a mighty short
time. But we wish to mention something
that is but little known and we do it with
great pleasure, as we consider it a very good
illustration of heredity. At the West end of
Rebersburg there are being built quitea num-
ber of comfortable houses, among which is
that of our noted silver politician, C. O.
Malory, the most beautiful house as yet,
which was planned in every particular by
Mrs. Malory, a lady who does not re-
gard herself as one of the ‘‘new women’ but
one that knows just how to conceive a most
convenient house internally, and a beautiful,
up-to-date habitation externally. The location
and elevation of the house, especially by the
bay-window, affords extensive views in al-
most every direction. The building is
well proportioned and with a number of
windows on all sides it is harmonious and
well balanced. The porch will be some-
thing entirely new in construction in our
town, as it is a combination of Corinthian
and rustic design. -

ing wood from the Orwig tract below town
and his lock rope broke on the steep hill at
the Branch school house, causing the tongue
to break and the horses to run. They upset
the wagon and threw Mr. Frantz against a
stone fence but fortunately he was not hurt
beyond a few bruises. The horses, though,
were much the worse for their run against a
barbed wire fence. a :

so well planned that she never suspected the

joyable evening.

Daugherty elicited much praise. Rev. C. T.
Aikens conducted the services, which was
really a sacred concert at which standing
room was at a premium.
John T. Duff, one of Pittsburg’s legal lights

ing for a cessation of hostilities of Wm. and
Jerry Garner against Henry Garner, their
father, constables Decker and Dunlap arrest-
ed them both and brought them before jus-
tice Keller, where they gave bond for their

matter can be amicably settled without add-
ing more costs but the whole affair is shame-
ful.
On the 3rd our young friend, W. H.

be spent. The bride is Miss M. A. Williams,
one of Boalsburg’s pretty young ladies and

good wife he deserves. They. have the
WATCHMAN’S best wishes.

A SAD DEATH.—The death of Mrs. Sarah
Ella, the wife of D. C'. Krebs, which occurred
at her home on Main street. on the morning
of the 5th, cast a gloom over the entire com-
munity. The cause of her death was multi-
ple neuritis and she had been seriously. ill
for a week but ready as she was for the sum-
mons her death was particularly sad. In her
own family of little children, in the church,
in the societies and in hgr own neighborhood
she was of so much help and so greatly
needed. She was horn near Howard 38 years
ago but came to this place when only a girl.
On December 13th 1884 she married D. Clyde
Krebs and to them 4 children have been
born, three of whom aré living, the youngest,
a babe a week old. She was an excellent
heavily not only on her husband and young
children but on her mother, Mrs. Confer, her
sisters, Bella, and Mary, and her brothers,
George, William and Jacob. She requested
that she be buried in the new cemetery and
on the 7th she was laid to rest amid beautiful
flowers the tributes of affectionate friends.
Her friend and pastor, Rev. Aikens, conduct-
ed the services and to her pure and happy
christian life he consolingly referred. The
pall bearers were J. B. and N. T. Krebs, J.
W. Fry, M. E. Heberling, S. E. Goss and
D. L. Musser.

: Stormstown.
Having failed to see any news from this
end of the county for some time, I find that
there are some things that I might tell your
readers, some items are :
That Ed. Way is very happy because it is
a girl.
That Dr. J. A. Thompson is a very busy
man. :
That Half-moon township, has the best
roads in the county.
That every one is much pleased with Rev.
Runyan.
That the township made no mistake when
they elected John supervisor.
That the stone crusher is going late and
early under the supervision of John I. Gray.
That the United Brethren have an able
minister in the person of Rev. H. Mattern.
That J. H. -Gnffin, the Democratic war
horse of this township, is painting his new
stone building a beautiful yellow.
That the Rev. Robert Runyan delivered
a splendid sermon in the M. E. church in
this place, on Sunday evening.
That Ed. Way and John W. Gray have
put large wind mills on their barns and now
do their own grinding of grain for their
stock.
That the Misses Hartswick, who spent the
winter in Williamsport, have returned to
this town and except to remain during the
summer.
That John Ward, who left a leg in the
wheat field at the battle of Gettysburg, has
been seriously ill, for a few days, but at this
writing is slowly improving. -
That Miss Lizzie Furst, whose house was
destroyed by fire last fall, has replaced the
same by a beautiful building, on the sight of
the old one, and now all the marriageable
young men in the country are wanting to
see Miss Lizzie's new home.
That a man passed through this town yes-
terday, who had walked clear from the State
of Iowa, and expected to end his long walk
40 miles on this side of Philadelphia. He
wanted to know how long the advance agent
of McKinley's prosperity had passed before. |
The writer told him that he certainiy had
passed him as everyone here thought lie was
in the West and he made answer, that out
Wont that they told him that he was in the
ast. :
That poor little Patton township, wanting
to put on airsand be big like Half-moon, has
gone and bought a stone crusher, but she
can’t come up to Half-moon, as we own both
an engine and new road plow. Patton town-
ship has always had the poorest roads in the
State. I would just say here that the buy-
ing of their stone crusher was the only wise
act that Patton :townshiv has done in the
last forty years, and that the supervisors of
Worth township fled as mad as March hares,
and shook their fists at the supervisors of
Patton township when they heard that they
had purchased a crusher, and they went and
done likewise.
