PATRON’S P1cNic EXHIBITION. — The
24th annual encampment and exhibition
at Grange park, Centre Hall, Sept. 13th
to 18th, promises to he the largest gather-
ing the Patrons have ever held in this
county. Already twice the number of ex-
hibitors have made application for space,
that attended any previous gathering, cov-
ering every line of farm machinery and
farm implements.
The stock exhibit also promises to ex-
ceed that of former years ; the committee
being obliged to put up additional build-
ings. The camp will be equally large.
Arrangements are being made to put up
two hundred tents for the accommodation
of those desiring to tent. Camp will open
Saturday, the 11th, and the exhibition
Monday, the 13th.
All the railroads will give a one fare ex-
cursion rate during the picnic. Religious
services will be conducted on Sunday and
probably the most interesting and instrue-
tive entertainments will be given in the
auditorium that were ever held on the
ground.

Centre Hall.
The early farmers began sowing wheat the
beginning of this week through the valley.
The grangers are making an effort to have
a good live stock and poultry exhibit at the
coming picnic.
John T. Lee’s carriage shop is booming
with orders and work of all kinds. Mr. Lee
is a first class mechanic.
Among others who attended the encamp-
ment at Buffaloare W. A. Krise, W. W. Dil-
lett, Robert Bloom, Capt. George W. Boal and
(George Sweeney.
John W. Lincoln, cashier of the Mifflin-
burg bank, accompanied by his family
stopped over at this place for a short time.
The family are taking a pleasure tour by car-
riages and will be absent for some time.
Victor and Arthur Crawford rode from Miff-
linburg to this place Saturday, on bicycles,
and paid their respects to F. M. Crawford
their brother, the merchant. Victor holds
a position in a drug store in Philadelphia,
and is enjoying his vacation.
Whitme McCormick, of Charlestown, S. C.,
arrived here Tuesday evening. Mr. McCor-
mick joined his wife at this place, where she
is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. D.
Meyer. He is engaged in undertaking and
will return to the south in a few weeks.
The real estate of Mary Smith, consisting
of several pieces of timber land, and house
and lot on Main street, was sold on Satur-
day at Orphans’ Court sale. S. W. Smith, an
heir, purchased all but one tract of timber
which was knocked off to William Colyer.
Mr. and Mis. J. Emory Hoy, of 2642 North
16th street, Philadelphia, are spending some
time with the latter’s parents, Mr. and Mrs.
W. B. Mingle. A little daughter is the cen-
tre of attraction in the Mingle family just at
present. The little one for the past week or
more has been seriously ill.
Miss Bessie Wallington, a saleswoman in
Marks Bros. Philadelphia’s largest depart-
ment stores, is spending her annual vaca-
tion at Centre Hall, with the family of S.
W. Smith. Her first visits were through
the kindness of the Fresh Air association
but she now travels without a tag on her
wrist.
The Reformed Sunday school will give an
entertainment, on Wednesday evening, of
Granger picnic week, to be held in the audi-
torium. It will be a Tom Thumb wedding,
and a jolly occasion it will be, with feast and
all. Miss Brown, of Lewistown has the
children in hand, and is giving them a
thorough training.
W. B. Mingle and D. J. Meyer were off to
Philadelphia last week where they pur-
chased several driving horses. The latter
gentleman arrived with the steeds overland
Tuesday, having made the trip in about five
days. A few hours after the horses were sta-
bled one of them took sick and died.
There are remaining, however, three excel-
lent roadsters.
Now Mr. WATCHMAN, don’t make re-
marks about the greenness of our borough,
for, in fact, the only hay that could be made
on the territory within its boundries must be
cut from the growth on the spinal column
region of the moss-back who suggested the
idea that Centre Hall's street commissioners
are making hay on the streets. The leeches
as well as the moss are being removed from
the locality mentioned by the borough
authorities and the operation is causing the
temperature of the grower to rise to a point
which at times threatens to destroy the hero.
A visitor to the courts for half an hour was
impressed with a few facts which he noted.
1st. That the exterior and interior of the
court house looked ragged, and especially so,
when the money expended for repainting |
ete., is taken into account.
2nd. That the several hundred ‘‘don’t
spit on the floor’’ notices that adorn the
walls and every seat in the temple of justice
reflect seriously upon the gentlemanly man-
ners of jurors and witnesses who are called
together from every quarter of the county to
decide questions which only gentlemen
should be permitted to do.
3rd. That Judge Falkner is a very serious
looking associate, and if he were addressed
by the attorneys and had an occasion to
speak in court, a stranger might mistake him
for the presiding judge.
4th. That judge Gordon of Clearfield
county, with his smoothly shaven face and
intellectual look circulated through the court
room.
5th. That it is remarkable with what
tenacity the ex-county officials hang on to
the county’s soup bone. Any oue who fre-
quents the court these days might easily
think that he had just awakened from a Rip
Van Winkle sleep. that had lasted for a few
years, the only difference being that the
ex-county office-holders are doing odd jobs,
they would have regarded a trifle sour in
times gone by.
The Centre Hall water company served
notice oh C. F. Deininger, president of coun-
cil, forbidding further procedure with the
contracts, ete., for the proposed water plant
to be built by the borough. This is a formal
proceeding prior to serving an injunction
provided the old company doesn’t shake in
confidence in its proposed policy. The mem-
bers of the company are divided, or about on
the verge of division. The more intelligent
element favors a policy that would speedily
settle the water question in a business like
manner, and advocate selling the plant to the
borough at a figure within reason, while the
other element still maintains that $18,000 to
$23,000 is what the borough must pay the
company before it can proceed to furnish its
citizens with a fine and abundant supply of
water for all purposes and at all times. It
appears, too, that some of the members of
the water company are convinced that the
borough may supply water to those who
choose to use it, without first buying the ex-
isting company. This, of course, is the case,
and the old company has passed its days of
grace when it might have obtained from the
borough tax-payers full value for its plant.
The band will play very lively airs for a
while, and it looks to the casual observer as
though the old water company will be com-
pelled to shuffle its feet to the music.
Pine Grove Mention.

usual summer visit at his old home in Alex-
andria.

ous duties here and gone in for training for

Ex-commissioner H. C. Campbell regrets

his neighbors.

one from this section entitled to part of the
appropriation for transportation south, in
October. His sister, Mrs. Lizzie Gibson, of
Philadelphia whom he has not seen since a
small girl is a visitor at his home on Main
street.
The Baileyville picnic, last Saturday, was
a great success in every detail. A festival
had been billed for the night but as all the
eatables had all been sold it was dispensed
with and the treasury of the P. S. of A. did
not suffer. The attendance was estimated at
twelve hundred and for hours they stood and
eagerly watched the base ball game that was
| played by the Tyrone Cresents and the Pine
Grove Excelsiors. Some of our players
were as green as grass but after the score was
made known, 14 to 10, in favor of the Excel-
siors, the crowd determined that as green as
they were they could play ball, at least,
something the visiting team did not know.
