There is nothing to the kid's liking guite as fine as seeing a circus train “first.” > ——James W. Storm died at his home, in Tyrone, last Saturday morning, after a long illness with kidney trouble. Deceas- ed was 72 years old and in his days of ac- tive life was one sof the most trusted em- ployees of the Pennsylvania railroad com- pany.

Rupert's, near Zion, on a cherry picking . expedition. He returned singing the praises of Rupert’s cherries and fo prove hig assertions about their mammoth size and prolific yield he brought a branch ovith him, that was only a foot long, yet it was litérally covered with large, juicy cherries.

Ferguson township, |" there was an individual triumph for her. It was neither a national nor local fete- day, yet Pine Grove was alive to the im- portance of it as the reunion occasion of the men and women who have attended ‘‘THE SILVER GRAY.’ A banguet is spread in a grand forest clr, And numberless The June days are bright, and hearts true as gold, guests have heen bidden, Are bounding from nooks so-long hidden ; Their school-life is o'er, and Life's school's at its noon, Yet they come at the call of their Mother, Leggs agile, mayhe, A jubilee year, the in a “Silver Gray” ¢lown To meet and to greet one another. forty-fifth in the tran, Has dawned on this fair institution, The dear classic halls and haunts stiliremain, But where is the To-day it is garner The pride of life’ precious fruition ? ed, from near and rom far s every vocation— “A Silver Gray” hand, each wearing : star the old Academy that in years agone made the name of that village one of the fore- most among the many seats of learning in Central Pennsylvania. + Iii addition to the reunidh that had call- ed together men from all parts of the United States it was the opening of a new | park that the Bellefonte Central rail-road company intends beautifying until it be- | comes one of the most attractive pleasure | resorts in the county. ~ Though the weather-man had been any- thing but considerate of the feelings of tlie hospitable people of Pine Grove up to the | night before the eventful day, he was more | propitious Friday morning and when the sun had finally scattered the vapory mists that hung along the foof of the Tusseys, as though prone to stay there forever, nearly two thousand ‘people had gathered on the grounds. Lines of carriages blockaded the roads, train loads ‘arrived from Bellefonte and intermediate points and it kept the Pine Grove and Boalsburg bands husy getting all escorted to the park to their martial strains. The town was gay in holiday at- fVon in service for home, church aad nation, Far back in the Fi Woke fathers and mothers to duty “Onur sons and our stand, Quatt from learn fties, a fairy’s lighy wand, Yo daughters must take a Ligh ing’s clear fountan of beauty Oper wide the rude gates and bid al come in” Till rooms bare and small were o'aflowing ; Then rose in the fo rest this struetue so tine, To keep steady pace with the graving.

Hospitality was ever a feature of Pe | Grove citizenship. The very water they drink, the very air they breath seems ladened with it and every door in the place stood wide open in welcome. A PERMANENT ORGANIZATION FORMED. After the first look around, a meeting was called for the purpose of effecting a permanent organization. At 10:30 Wm. H. Fry, chairman of the committee on program, called the gathering to order and Rev. Wm. Gemmill, of Allenwood, offered an opening prayer. The election of officers followed with this result : President, General James A. Beaver ; vice presidents, Hon. J. H. Osmer and Albert Hoy ; Secretaries, (ieo. R. Meek and J. K. Bottorf. After the election Fletcher Meek led the old students-in ““Auld Larig Syne”’ and it was really worth going miles to hear the zest with which they all joined in. Gen. Beaver carried the bass for the whole multitude and while he is usually foremost in anything he undertakes this time he was far enough behind to make a splendid echo effect. In truth it sounded very much as if the rocks of old Tussey were reflecting the sounds that were being emit- ted by the most distinguished of all the students. Then followed the! regular program as already published in these columns. D. F. Fortney Esq., of this place, de- livered the address of welcome, which was largely an historical resume of the institu- tion, and former judge D. L. Krebs, of Clearfigld, made the response. His was generally conceded to have heen the happiest address of the day and though facetious manner in which he tumbled off reminiscences of "the old place and the old people kept the assemblage in a con- tinual uproar. Rev. Dr. Orr followed with greetings from the old Shade Gap Academy and then the meeting adjourned for dinner. In gypsy style and with that air of in- formality begotten of life-long friendship, the crowd sat down to dinner and a merry hour or so was spent. Nothing promotes good fellowship more rapidly than good eating and Pine Grove is one place where that can always be had. THE AFTERNOON MEETING. The afternoon meeting was called to order at 2 o'clock and the committee on by- laws, Rev. Gemmill, Miss Kate L. Moser and J. K. Bottorf, reported ina way that their work was straightway addpted. Then officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows : General Beaver, president 3 WY, 'H. Fry, vice president, and J. K. Bottorf, secréfary and treasurer. Executive committee, Hon. D. L. Krebs, Clearfield ; Rev. Gemmill, Allenwood 3 B. J. Laporte, Philipsburg ; A. G. Archey, Pine Grove Mills ; H. C. Campbell, Fair- brook ; Miss Kate L. Moser, Altoona ; and J. H.

Of late he has attained more or less prominence as a mandolinist through several clever articles’ on the theory and practice of mandolin music that have been published in reputa- ble musical publications. Mr. Gerhart made a success of the Imperial mandolin and guitar club and we trust that he will bave equal success as an instructor at Mer- cershure. : | Letters of ) regret were read from Dr. | LC ati®non” wit] sails all,un- ‘elk onward, : o ! ned to smile fren above. | at rest, his wrks werdeuh leaders in passig along, d a Rhone with Aiken iy line, Nowawe revel once more in dear [brary Hal, Hedy the voices excel With graceful ¢ that charmed u of yore, and “Prescott” ach bound to Suphronia’ veged in lore.

EA A CENTRE COUNTY JAIL DELIVERY. —It is indeed a wonder that there is any of the wall of the Centre county jail left sinee | Bill Hanna was able to make a hole in it large enough to let ‘his ponderous person through. Tuesday morning everyone was talking and joking about the jail delivery that had occurred the night before, and while all realized that two very had men had escaped the law’s clutches it did seem a little ridiculous to know that in the short space of one night two men had made a hole in Centre county’s jail wall almost large enough4e drive Barnum’s band wagon through. " Bill Hanna and George McCormick were hoth in jail here awaiting trial for having heen connected with the robbery | of €harles McClelland’s tailor shop, on Al- legheny street, on the night of May 18th. McCormick was arrested in Williamsport a few days after the robbery and was brought to this place dressedfin a portion of “the plunder he had helped carry away. Hanna was known to have to, have heen implicat- ed and he was arrested, but both of jthe men aregone now and where, the authori- ties would like to know. They escaped some time during Monday | night, but the first thing that was known of it was, on Tuesday morning, when the | turn-key went to give the prisoners their | breakfast. Hanna and McCormick were missed and a search revealed | The two men had occupied fs in the sec- | ond tier on the north side of the jail. Af- | ter being locked in for the night McCormick with a he had made, and after putting | picked the lock on his cell door, | wooden key la dummy in his own bed he slipped into | | Hanna's cell. The mattress was propped | against the cell door to deaden the sound | then the two went to work, with a short | iron bar, to dig out. The large stones about the window facing were pried out with evident ease and the men left them- selves down into the jail yard wall, hy means of knotted blankets. From there it was an easy matter to climb to the top of | the old shed that leans against the 20ft wall, | thence to the top and drop to the outside. | Just why there is any necessity for a twen- | ty foot yard wall when that old shed makes | it so easy to scale is more than most people | will comprehend. | Hanna and McCormick must have got- ten out shortly before daylight, Tuesday morning, and hid about town until Wed- nesday evening, because they were seen near Shiloh, at 7 o’clock that evening, by former sheriff W.

The first known of him by our police was when his arrest for the Me- Clelland robbery brought him to their notice. They answer to these descriptions : Wm.

He has a large stomach and chest ; gray eyes. . “George MecCormick—sandy mustache, | ——ee.— Mes. JoHN C. MILLER. —On last Sun- day morning at the home of her brother, James H. Potter, on Spring street, Ms. Mrs. Mary Potter, wife of John C. Miller, died of tuberculosis of the howels, after weeks of suffering. Mrs. Miller had «been more or less of a sufferer all winter and several months ago she was taken to a pri- vate hospital in Philadelphia in hope that an operation would he beneficial. Through- out the ordeal she was perfectly calm and even when consciois that she could not re- cover was patient and bright. She was the eldest daughter of George I. Potter, who in hisday was Centre county’s most noted surgeon. Her mother, Thoma- sine Harris, was a daughter of Jas. Harris, one of the founders of the town and through her she was related to most of the oldest families of the place. Her entire life, with the exception of the last year, when her husband accepted the superintendency of the Reynolds’ farms, has been spent here, where she was born August 19th, 1850. She was a gentle, refined woman, devoted to her family, and at her home, at Rock view, five miles south-west of town, ‘entertained with gen- erous and gracious hospitality. - With her husband and little son, Charles Potter, %o miss her greatly are her sisters Lucy and Thomasine, and her brothers James H., of this place, and George L. Pot-, ter, of Fort Wayne,” Indiana. . She was buried, Tuesday afternoon, from the Pres- byterian church, of which she had been a member since childhood. Dr. Laurie con- ducted the services and the pall bearers were John I. and George I.. Potter, Allen and Robert Sommerville, Harry and Ed- ward Hoy, Col. WF. Reynolds and John Blanchard. ‘ — ete THE MUSICAL FETE AT PINE GROVE, — their escape. | Both men are had characters. Hanna | —’Squire H. H.

Revs. Ralph Illingsworth and R. W. Run- Yon will be the speakers. Bey Rev. G. E. Adams, a well known re- tired Reformed clergyman, died at his home, in Reading, a few days ago, at the age of seventy-five. At one time he served the Aaronshurg charge in this county. ee The Lock Haven school hoard will issue $8,000 worth of 4 per cent bonds to cover floating indebtedness. All the old teachers have been re-elected at the same salaries they received last year. *oe | | | Mes. HARRY JOHNSTON.—Death is sad at all times but when its visitation carries | | | away one so bright, one so pure and lov- able as was Mrs. Harry Johnston there is a sadness in it that is almost inconsolable. She was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Walkey, of this place, and was fairly idolized by her parents and brother and honored and loved by “her voung hus- { band, with whom she had lived so happi- | Iv at Altoona. : Several weeks ago she came to her home | here with the hope of finding relief from | rheumatism with which she was suffering | and-indeed seemed improved until it sud- | denly affected her brain and caused her | death, last Saturday morning. She was | born, May 28th, 1869, and was married on ‘ September R5th, 1291, to Harry Johnston, youngest son of John T. Johnston, of this | place. The idealist could have hoped for no truer life than theirs and the separation is a sad blow to the young husband, who is left alone in his grief. Funeral services were held, on Tuesday | afternoon, and were conducted by Rev. J. | A. Moyer, pastor of the Reformed church of Altoona, of which she had heen an ex- emplary member. © He was assisted by Rev. Eisenberg, of Centre Hall, and only his own illness kept Rev. Miles O. Noll, of Carlisle, her girlhood’s pas- tor, from heing here. Exquisite flor- al designs testified of the esteem in which she was held and the awful sadness of the service told of the gloom of the bereaved.
