The exercises begin at 2 o’clock and all the friends of the school will be made welcome. ——While playing foot-ball with the Philipsburg team here, last Saturday, Reu- ben Mull had the tendons of his left leg badly sprained. He was taken to the Bush house and Dr. Harris rendered the neces- sary attention. —Several new streets are being opened at State College. Osage avenue is opened clear through to Sauerstown, so that the children of that place will have a short cut to school. The village is growing very rap- idly and it will not be long until it will Jecome one of the foremost small towns in #he county. —-There will be services in the Luth- eraii charch, in this place, Sunday, Dec. 12th, ’97, morning and evening, conducted by Rev. H. C. Holloway, D. D., of Harrs- burg, Pa., Dr. Holloway being a Centre county gentlemen no doubt all will be pleased to hear him. All members and friends of the congregation are invited to be present. ——The public school teacher’s institute for Clearfield county will be held in the opera house, at Clearfield, December 20th to 24th, inclusive.

Lamar, of Georgia ; the New York male quartette, Capt. Jack Crawford, poet and scout ; and Thos. Dixon Jr., of New York. ——The Bellefonte friends of W. A. Goodwin, organist at St. John’s Episcopal church, in this place, hefore Mr. Reeve came, will be pleased to learn that he has taken another step upward by being select- ed, from among twelve other applicants, for the position of organist at St. Timothy’s church, Roxboro, in Philadelphia. Mr. Goodwin has resigned his position at Hoo- sick Falls, N. Y., where he has been since leaving Bellefonte. Philadelphia is the home of his parents, so that the new place ought to prove doubly pleasant for him. ——The humane man looks after that of his horse and cow quite as thoughtfully as he does his own comfort. The approach of the holiday season inspires us all with a feeling of good cheer and with it comes just a few extras on the table. The patient, faithful, dumb things in the stable proba- bly know not what Christmas is, but you couldn’t be selfish enough to have a full table and warm bed in the house, while horse or cow stand on the bare ground be- hind an empty manger. Go down to Rhoads’ and get hay, straw, corn and oats for the animals and while you are there leave your order for your winter’s coal. Rhoads’ coal is clean and cheap. No short tons there and everybody is treated in a business-like way. ——The Philipsburg foot ball team came to this place, last Saturday, and after tumbling round in the mud for an hour and a half they crawled out from under the Academy boys, a woe-begone, crest-fallen lot, for they had heen heaten by the score of 800. It rained continually during the entire game and only a small crowd was present to see it. The game was cleanly played and void of all unpleasantries. The visitors seemed a gentlemanly lot and left a very favorable impression by their con- duct. The last time the two teams met was at the beginning of the season, when they played at Philipsburg, the Academy team having been defeated by the score of 6 to 0. CouNciL MET IN THE NEW PUBLIC BUILDING.—The new public building that is certainly not a beauty, but will un- doubtedly prove a joy for awhile, at least, had its first official gathering of councilmen last Monday night, when seven of the members met to transact the business be- fore them. The Street committee reported repairs on Lamb, Ridge, Penn, Logan and Allegheny streets. Monroe Armor’s request for a crossing over east Linn street, at the inter- section of Armor, was referred to this com- mittee with the suggestion that a plank crossing be laid. The committee was or- dered to repair the sewer in front of I.. T, Munson’s home, on north Allegheny street, and also to see that the proper kind of a walk is laid in front of Mrs. Haupt’s prop- erty on Thomas street. The request of J. P. Hughes for a board walk from his home, at the east end of Logan street, to Spring, was referred to the Street committee for investigation. The Water committee reported the in- suring of boilers and equipment, various repairs of pipes and fire plugs. To this committee was referred Isaac Underwood’s request to have the mains on Penn street looked after. © According to his complaint some of the mains are only 18 inches under ground up there and besides being in constant danger of freezing up they are only 13 inches in di- ameter and wholly inadequate for the ser- vice they are supposed to render. Daniel Snyder’s proposition to dig the ditch from Curtin street to his home, on north Alleghe- ny street, provided council would lay wa- ter pipe was accepted. It will require 350 ft. of pipe. Under new business council accepted a proposition from the Central Pennsylvania telephone company whereby a phone is to be placed in the new public building for fire alarm service and said company is to be exonerated from water tax. William Kramer asked for exoneration from taxes, stating his total disability to pay, owing to the fact that he has been sick and unable to work for two years. Jas. McCafferty’s proposition to furnish curbing for pavement in front of public building for 60 cts. per lineal foot was ac- cepted. Council approved bills to the amount of $914.62 then adjourned. , A propos of the first meeting in the new building a brief description of it is not out of place, even though we published a more extended one at the time work on it was begun. The building is 60x48 feet, two stories high, the front and two sides being constructed of Mill Hall brick. The rooms on the first floor are police headquarters, bunk room, engine, hook and ladder, and hose rooms, with toilets attached. On the second story is located firemen’s hall, the size of which is 27x47 feet ; council room 22x24 feet, ante room, 16x16} feet ; two water closets and bath rooms, 14x16, com- plete the number on the second floor. The building is heated throughout from its own furnace that furnishes both hot and cold water. ‘The inside of the building is nicely finished in North Carolina pine. The en- tire cost of the structure was $5,000. Height of cupola from the street is 50 feet, from which a 30 foot flag staff projects. Two of the most useful features of the new building are the well for hose drying, that is high enough in which to hang 50ft. sections ; and the engine pit into which ashes and fire can be dumped and over which the engine will stand, giving it hot water connection at all times. Mr. Benjamin Bradley, Sr., was the con- tractor, who let the excavation, stone and brick work to C. C. Bell. Mr. Brad- ley and John Dunlap did the carpen- ter work. Harry Miller did the roof- ing and William Evey the painting. The building was constructed strictly in accordance to plans, and the council had no hesitancy in promptly taking it off the con- tractor’s hands. The design was by Robt. Cole & Co., architects, of this place. Bellefonte was incorporated as a borough in 1806. The first meeting of its council took place in February, 1808, in William Alexander’s hotel, which occupied the ground on which now stands the residence of the late Governor Curtin. At that time the borough contained but 54 voters. The first fire company, the Bellefonte tire company, was organized Feb. 16, 1831, of which John Bigler, afterwards Governor of California, was chief engineer. The en- gine used was worked by hand, and when at a fire was supplied with water by the bucket brigade. Logan Hose company was organized in 1868, and has an up to date steamer of its own, and heok and ladder and hose trucks. The Undine I'ire company was organized in August, 1868, and it owns its own steamer, which is of the best make obtain- able. “ee CHARLES LINN IN THE ToiLs. — Charles Linn, of Snow Shoe, was arrested at the home of his uncle, Charles Brown, on Allegheny street, this place, last Saturday afternoon. He was accused of having stolen $80, a shirt, a pair of cuff buttons and a set of studs from a gentle- man named Burns of that place. Constable Chambers followed him in from Snow Shoe and arrested him here. Justice Keichline committed him to jail for court. Linn is about 26 years old. He says he did not take the money, but the shirt and cuff buttons were found on his person. eee CHURCH DEDICATION AT HOWARD.— The Christian chapel at Howard will be dedicated on Sunday, Dec. 19th. Rev. J. D. Houston, of Altoona, will preach the dedicatory sermon at 10:30 o’clock in the morning. Prof. Geo. S. Fullerton, of the Universi- ty of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, is one of the lecturers advertised for the institute next week. Bit ee ——DMorrison’s Faust comes to Garman’s tomorrow night, the grandest scenic pro- duction of Goethe’s romantic drama ever produced here. ve ——Rev Thomas Levan Bickle, of Read- ing, will preach in the Reformed church, in this place, morning and evening, on Sunday, Dec. 12th. ei ——There is going to be a wedding on Howard street, soon, that will be a great surprise to the people who keep track of such interesting events and imagine they know all about them. a ——A fine doe in Benjamin Gentzel’s deer park, a few miles east of Bellefonte, was gored and completely disemboweled by a cross buck last Sunday night. To prevent further depredations to his herd Mr. Gentzel dehorned the buck. A ye ——Plenty of light makes the home bright and especially is this desirable dur- the holiday season. James Harris & Co., Daniel Irvin’s Sons and W. T. Twitmire all sell the fine oils of the Atlantic refining company and when you buy them you have the satisfaction of knowing that you have the best. oe . ——An overheated stove set ‘fire to the cabin at David Kauffman’s camp, on the mountain above Clintondale, last Friday morning. David Barner got up early and built a fire in the stove; then went back to bed and slept until the roaring of the fire awakened him and his three companions. The entire inside of the cabin was ablaze. The men had scarcely time to get out with enough clothing to cover them. ote ‘——Robert F. Hunter, representing the New England mutual life insurance com- pany, is sending out some very tidy little pocket engagement books for 1898. ‘The company has only been represented in this field since Mr. Hunter took hold of it, scarcely more than a year ago, and already he has pushed its business up toa very creditable figure. The company is fifty- four years old, very conservative and conse- quently strong. Ldehatanto ——The case against James Lee and Henry Collins, the two colored men ar- rested by Captain Harry Simler, of Philips- burg, charged with highway robbery, came up at the Clearfield court, Wednesday morning, and they pleaded guilty, and were each sentenced to a term of five years in the western penitentiary. It will be rememberd that Capt. Simler shot and wounded one of the robbers, while trying to arrest them in Tyrone. ode ——If there is one time more than anoth- er that the home ought to be wartn and cheerful it is during the holiday season. They are the days of the whole year when the family is together, living for one anoth- er and happy with one another. About the nicest thing for such an occasion would be one of those pretty art stoves to be seen at Miller’s, on Allegheny street. The room is not the only place that should be cheer- ful, either, for a good cooking stove is the sure guarantee of a good humored house- wife and Miller’s is the place to get one. te ——There are a few stores in town where you can’t buy anything that isn’t useful. Plague take these thoughtless people who buy a Christmas present for a friend that is about as much use to them asa palm leaf fan would be at the north pole. There is scarcely an attic in the country that doesn’t contain its shar: of dusty gewgaws that lasted about ten days after Christmas and then found their way to their last rest- ing place, incontrovertible evidences of someone’s folly. Faubles is one of the places where useful articles, exclusively, are sold. Anything you get there will prove a delight to some one and when you do get it there you can rest assured that it is all right. —— oe ——It is never much trouble to buy Christmas presents when you know just what you want. The trouble is that most people put it off until the last moment and then rush off the night before Christmas and buy any old thing that is left on the counters that have been plucked of the prettiest and most useful. Now the Globe is just ready to help this class out of their dilemma. A corps of courteous clerks are there waiting to show you the largest line of laces, ribbons, coats, wraps, clothing and toys that they have ever exhibited since coming to Bellefonte. The Globe never meets the holiday season half-way and if you can’t find something to suit you there you are certainly hard to please. ———— eee ———The three strong attractions at insti- tute next week will be Sam Jones, Eli Perkins and Dr. Anna Shaw. Sam is just a little irreverent, but then he is one of the country’s celebrities and you should hear him by all means. Eli Perkins, being a humorist of national reputation, no one should miss the opportunity of hearing him. Dr. Anna Shaw is a woman who has been before the public for many years and has achieved fame as a minister and lecturer. These three entertainments for next week should be well patronized by our people. It is well that you know and hear such people as Jones, Perkins and Shaw. You might not be pleased with any of them, yet they are lecturers of so great reputa- tion that you can scarcely afford to say you “have not heard them when such an op- portunity has been extended to you. A SAD AcCIDENT.—Harry Saunders, the young colored man who died in the Wil- liamsport hospital, last Saturday morning, worked at the home of the editor of this paper for four years and we know that he was much more of a man than plenty of others who pass off as much better. He was an excellent worker and although he had not had regular employment for a year he did office and house cleaning right along ’til he announced that he was going to Elmira to hunt work. Friday morning he got on a freight train and went as far as Lock Haven, where he bought a ticket to Williamsport, the home of his father and mother. Arriving there on the mid-night train he attempted to get off before the train stopped and slipped and fell with his left foot right under the wheels. He was carried to the hospital where it was found that only the front part of his foot was in- jured and nothing was said of an operation to his parents, who got to the hospital soon after they were notified. Harry seemed so well and suffering so little from his foot that after staying with him a time they left, expecting to go back in the afternoon. But before they got back, and without say- ing one word to the parents about it, the physicians etherized him and started in— to cut off the front part of his foot, but ‘he stopped breathing’’ and that ended their operation. The railroad company notified his friends here, but his father and mother did not know ‘of his death until: some hours afterward. Then they got possession of his body, as soon as they could, and the con- dition in’ which it was shipped from the hospital was far from creditable, even for a charity ward. : His body was brought home here Mon- day morning and buried from the A, M. E. church, on Tuesday afternoon, with the Odd Fellows in charge of the funeral. He was 26 yearsof age and; married, but had no children. His father, William Saunders, was employed about the Bush ‘house for many years but for some time has been night watchman in a Williamsport hotel. ll I I THOMAS WILSON JR., DEAD.—Soften- ing of the brain caused the death of Thomas Wilson Jr., the 26 year old son of Thomas Wilson, who lives near the ‘‘red school house,”” north of Bellefonte. His death occurred on Saturday afternoon at 1 o’clock, deceased having been ill for a long time. He had undergone an operation in a Phila- delphia hospital and, receiving no relief, gradually grew worse until he died. Deceased leaves a father, mother, three sisters and a brother to mourn his death. Interment was made in the Advent ceme- tery on Tuesday afternoon. I I I Mgrs. MARY SoLT IS DEAD. — Mrs. Mary Solt, relict of the late Peter Solt, died at her Home, on West Logan street, in this place, last Friday evening, at the age of 71 years. Her maiden name was Gates and she was born in Ferguson township, Octo- ber 9th, 1826. One daughter and four sons survive. They are Catharine, David, James, Conrad and Cyrus. Interment was made in the Reformed cemetery, at Boalsburg, on Sunday after- noon. Il I ll ———Mrs. Bridget Laughlin, of east Lamb street, died last Friday, after a week’s illness with heart trouble. De- ceased was born in Galway, Ireland, and was 78 years old last February. She had spent most of her forty-five yearsin this country as a resident of Bellefonte and was generally esteemed. Burial was made from St. John’s Catholic church on Mon- day morning. Four daughters, two of whom are married, survive her. I I ll ——The remains of Mrs. Samuel Harp- ster, of Gatesburg, were interred yesterday morning at 10 o'clock. She died from the effects of a paralytic stroke suffered some time ago and leaves a husband, a daughter and several sons to mourn their loss, for a loss indeed it is, since Mrs. Harpster was a woman of rare motherly qualities and was fairly devoted to her family. ——H. M. Myers died at Atlanta, Ga., last Saturday, and his remains were brought to Tyrone for interment. The wife of the deceased is a daughter of the late General John Irvin Gregg, of Centre county. She is well known in this county. es A SAM JONES MADE THEM LAUGH OuUT OF THE OTHER SIDE OF THEIR MOUTHS. —On next Tuesday evening Sam Jones, of Carterville, Ga., will lecture in the court house, in this place ; his subject being ‘‘Get There and Stay There.” Sam is a preach- er, but he is said to be a very irreverent one. However that may may be he is not afraid to say what he thinksand there is no denying the fact that he says many good things in his sensational way. For instance, over at Wilmington, Del., on last Sun- day afternoon, he was preaching in the Union church to a monster congregation. During his sermon he bitterly attacked the divorce laws of the United States, basing his criticism upon the Biblical passage which says, ‘‘Whom God has joined togeth- er, let no man put asunder.”’ That same night at the Auditorium he broke out in a tirade against the Demo- cratic party. ‘‘I was once a Democrat my- self,”” he stated, ‘‘but am sorry that I ever was.”” These remarks were greeted with hearty applause from the Republican side of the house. It had no sooner sub- sided than the sensational preacher turned the tag on the Republicans by saying: “Thank God, I was never mean enough to be a Republican.” ——The members of St. Agnes Catholic church of Lock Haven are making prepa- rations for a silver jubilee in celebration of the founding of the parish. The anniver- sary day is really January 1st, but owing to its falling right in the busy holiday season the members decided to celebrate it on Wednesday and Thursday, Dec. 15th and 16th. er ——Now when you are buying holiday groceries, candies, fruits or nuts it is cer- tainly just as easy and must be far more satisfactory for you to go to a store where, besides cheapness, superiority will be a feature. This is assuredly the case when you buy at Sechler’s. There everything isso nice and fresh that a stranger might imag- ine the holiday season on all the time. ei ——Nothing is more annoying than a leaking steam, gas or water pipe. And can you imagine anything more unhealthy or noxious than the gases that are gener- ated by plumbing that isn’t properly done. R. J. Schad and Bro., have a reputation for doing the best and if you want your home or your business place sweet and healthful for the holiday season get the Schads to look over your service and see that itis in good order. One of their heaters, installed now, would save you the bother of carrying coal and ashes all winter. ———te ——A few snow flakes have been dancing in the air lately. Just enough to remind us that winteris here and that sleighing might not be so far off as it appears to be now. The question that naturally arises is, ‘are we ready for it. What is the pleas- ure ‘in going sleigh riding without lots of merry bells, good warm robes, new harness and a good, big blanket to cover the horse with when theride isover. Jas. Schofield, the old reliable dealer on Springstreet, has all that you need in this line and if you want anything he is the man to see. QA ——Those old suits that you have al- lowed to get full of wrinkles and spots of every conceivable size would look quite genteel enough for any one, if cleaned and pressed up. Edward McGuiness is just the man to entrust such an over-hauling to. His shop is on the third floor of Lyon and Co’s., building and if you have never tried him just take our advice and let him go to work on your old clothes. By the way, he is making a great many new garments, and they are giving satisfaction too. rte . —Under ordinary circumstances you wouldn’t think that McCalmont & Co’s., is much of a place to go to buy Christmas presents, but, on second thought, you would realize how groundless such an as- sertion would be. Now we all know that self-binding harvesters, Conklin wagons, hay tedders and the like wouldn’t do under a Christmas tree, but what would be nicer than a fine sewing machine for your wife, several ornamental jardiniers, a carpet sweeper or one of the many other use- ful household articles they keep in their great store. Dropin there some day and look through their mammoth ware-rooms. Probably the consternation that strikes you about this time of year, as to what to buy, will be relieved and some member of your family made very happy. ode HAPPILY MARRIED.—John R. Keller, popularly known about Bellefonte as “Roly,”” was married to Miss Rebecca Wallace, of Jackson, Ohio, at the home of Rev. Lewis Robb, pastor of Trinity Re- formed church, in Altoona, on Tuesday, Dec. 7th. It was quite in the nature of a surprise to his many Bellefonte friends who are all pleased to know that the hap- py marriage has given him a most charm- ing wife. The officiating clergyman was an old schoolmate of the groom and alto- gether it was a very delightful wedding. After an informal reception in Altoona the young couple came to this place and were received at the Haag hotel, of which Mr. D. C. Keller, the groom’s father, is proprietor. News Purely Personal. —Mrs. J. L. Spangler and her daughter, Miss Holliday, left for Philadelphia, on Tuesday morn- ing. Mrs. Spangler will remain in the city until Christmas. —Mr. James Carner, of Hublersburg, was in town, on Monday, so busy that he merely had time to drop in and wish us the time of day, ere he was off again. —Miss May Crider is home from a visit in Lan- caster, where she was the guest of Miss Sener. Her brother Burns and his wife expect to go to housekeeping next week, in their new home, on Linn street. , —Mr. Joseph Packer, of Howard, was in town, on Wednesday, taking out letters of administra- tion on the estate of his deceased wife. Mr. Packer is a jolly, companionable gentleman who can appreciate a joke and enjoy life with the best of them. We scarcely knew him with his beard off, it makes him look so much younger. —Mrs. Isaac Maitland was able to leave for her home, in Williamsport, on Tuesday afternoon. Several weeks since she came here to visit her father, Mr. Daniel Garman, and was stricken with typhoid fever. Her case was quite serious for a time, but she had recovered sufficiently to warrant her departure. Her father accompanied her home. —Dr. W. H. Daly, a Pittsburg gentleman who has hunted over nearly every territory in the United States, went out to Snow Shoe, on Wed- nesday afternoon, to try it there. He had a valet and four dogs with him ; one of the dogs being the property of Gen. Miles, of the United States army. If the Haynes and Uzzle boys show the doctor the hunting sights out in that neck-o-the- woods he'll go home to Pittsburg thinking he's been to the happy hunting ground, sure enough. —Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Royer, of Miami county Ohio, are East visiting friends and relatives in Nittany and Bald Eagle valleys. They have been residents of the Buckeye State for some years and think everything is so nice out there that they wouldn't return to live in Centre county for a good bit. Both are natives of this county. Mr. Royer is from Nittany valley and Mrs. Royer is a daughter of the late Jesse Frederic 3, of Union- ville. They are having quite a pleasant trip, be- cause both are observing, well informed people with whom it is a pleasure to converse. FOSTER’S DECEMBER WEATHER TALKS. —“The second disturbance of December will reach the Pacific coast about December 9th, cross the west of Rockies country by close of 10th, great central valleys 11th to 13th and eastern States 14th. A warm wave will cross the west of Rockies country about December 9th, great central valleys 11th and eastern States 13th. A cool wave will cross the west of Rockies country about the 12th, great central val- leys 14th and eastern States 16th. Temperature of the week ending Decem- ber 11th will average, and rainfall will be, below normal east of and above west of the Rockies. East of the Rockies December tempera- ture will average below and on the Pacific slope above normal. Most rain and snow will fall in the Ohio valley, in the Atlantic coast States south of New York city and on the Northern Pacific slope. In the balance of the country rainfall will be below nor- mal. An important cold wave will enter the upper Missouri valley about the first of December, and real winter weather will continue for about two weeks. This cold wave will affect all of the United States and Canada east of the Rock- ies, and will be attended by rains, hail, snows and blizzards, not all in one place, but within the countries mentioned. About December 18th a warm wave will pass eastward over the country, and the remainder of the month will be much mild- er than the first two weeks.”’ ee DR. GERHART PLEASED Lock HAVEN REFORMEDS.—Rev. Dr. R. Leighton Ger- hart, went to Lock Haven, last Sunday, and preached in St. Luke's Reformed church to large congregations. His ser- mons on the benediction and the judgment were highly spoken of by the Lock Haven press. The Democrat concludes a very compiimentary notice as follows : “In both sermons Rev. Dr. Gerhart varied the emphasis according to the tenor of the statements presented, making his discourses of dramatic earnestness, ministerial pathos and scholarly logic. He has a pleasing ad- dress in the pulpit and has a cordial greeting for all when meeting strangers. His ser- mons were listened to by large audiences.” *oe ONLY Two TRAINS A DAY TO STATE COLLEGE AFTER JANUARY 3RD.—January 3rd, 1898, the Bellefonte Central R. R. Co., will reduce their train service during the winter months from six to four trains daily. Trains will leave Bellefonte for State Col- lege, Pine Grove Mills and intermediate points, at 6.30 a. m. and 1.45p. m.; re- turning, will leave Pine Grove Mills at 7.40 a. m. and 3.10 p. m., State College at 8.15a. m. and 3.30 p. m., connecting at Bellefonte with Penna. R. R. trains for points east and west. oe “OPENING THE FAMILY ALBUM.” — The most novel entertainment that has been given in Bellefonte for a long time will be that of the young people’s society of Christian Endeavor of the Presbyterian church, to be given in their chapel this evening. ‘‘Opening the Family Album’’ is something new and you should see it. Admission 10cts, including refreshments. Notice. On and after Nov. 15th, 1897, the Phoenix Flouring Mill of this place, previously operated by George W. Jackson & Co., will be operated by the Phoenix Milling Co., composed of W. Fred Reynolds, J. L. Montgomery and Curtis Y. Wagner. Mr. Wagner, who for several years has con- ducted Rock Mills, has charge of th manufacturing and a high class of flour and feed is assured. The new company solicits a continuance of the patronage which the mill enjoyed, under its former management and will en- deavor to give entire satisfaction to the trade. 42-44-tf PHOENIX MILLING CO.
