Democratic watchman. (Bellefonte, Pa.) 1855-1940, May 13, 1898, Image 5

    Maine disaster but did not get in then so he
gladly joined the recruits for company B, last
Saturday and in company with Clyde Smith
and Thos Bartges went to Bellefonte and
passed the examination. Sandoe is not yet
twenty, is good born and well behaved. He
has the good wishes of many friends that he
will win honor and renown and return after
Spain is routed in good health. A regiment
like Sandoe would scare the Spanish into
hysterics.
THE WATER QUESTION.—It is with much
satisfaction and pleasure your correspondent
is able to announce that the water question
has been settled by the Supreme court offer-
ing the decision of the lower court, which
means that Judge Love was right when he
decided Centre Hall could, if it wished,
erect its own water plant. The decision of
the court was received Monday shortly be-
fore 5 o’clock and, in a very few minutes the
whistles of the manufacturing establishments
were announcing the victory so vociferously
that people outside the town were sure that
Admiral Sampson had sent the whole Span-
ish fleet down to join McGinty. While they
were disappointed in this the news they
heard was equally acceptable.
The manufacturers were not the only ones
who rejoiced—every resident of the town ex-
cept the water stock owners were jubilant.
The war was forgotten for the time and the
eight inch’ gun at Grange Park bomed
forth the good news until the town and val-
ley fairly echoed while the anvils on the
diamond repeated the story. If any one
says spite and jealousy are at the bottom of
the scheme for Centre Hall to own and
operate its own water plant you can put it
down as altogether false. The citizens of the
town were driven to it in self defense. Talk
about spite and jealously ! talk about further-
ing the town’s interests ! and then remem-
ber that the water company asked and would
have taken twenty-two thousand dollars for
a plant, which when described before the
Supreme court caused a general smile.
The people are duly thankful to the law-
yers, who so ably defended them and to the
borough authorities who stood without
flinching for the right. Providentally or in-
cidentally C. P. Hewes, attorney for the wa-
ter company, was in town Monday when the
whistles let loose their shrieks of triumph
over the cause he was championing.
Pine Grove Mention.
" G. W. Keichline is on the sick list.
John Bubb is ill with pneumonia.
The frame of captain Kepler's new barn
is up.
Adam Rishel and wife, of Boalsburg, visited
friends in the Glades the beginning of the
week.
George Y. Meek, of Tyrone, has been down
on his farm for several weeks superintending
the erection of some new buildings.
Mrs. W. C. Dunlap and her bright little
boy are visiting Centre Co., relatives. The
reverend will follow suit and join them
soon.
John G. Heberling is improving his man-
sion on Main street for he knew he would not
have time to look after the repairs after he
was appointed postmaster.
While engaged in lumbering on the moun-
tains a bough struck Wm. H. Meyers on the
nose and it took Dr. Kitter some time to get
the organ back into proper shape.
J. C. Bradford, a pleasant gentleman as
well as an expert machinist, while here set-
ting up the Deering reapers was the guest
of C. B. McCormick and they hit it splendid-
ly on politics.
Charley Mench, of the Gazette, Titus Krebs,
Ed. and Elmer Reed, and M. E. Heberling,
are camped on the banks of Stone creek
catching and hauling in the speckled beau-
ties.
Miliken son of W. E. McWilliams, of Rock
Springs, is one of Captain Sigsbee’s recruits
on the St. Paul. When he wrote last the
ship was coaling at Fortress Monroe expect-
ing to sail at a moment’s notice.
Mr. John Patton, of Grand Rapids, was in
this community recently trying to locate the
exact spot where Gen. John Patton, of Revo-
lutionary fame, is buried. We were not at
home so he failed in his mission and a stone
pile at the foot of an old apple tree is yet the
only mark of the sepulcher.
The temperance lecture in the Lutheran
church, last Sunday evening, was largely
attended. Miss Mosser, whois one of the
bright talkers of the W. C. T. U., had her
audience intensely interested for one hour
and a half and many a cheek was wet with
tears as she related the touching incidents
that every one, who is at all interested in the
temperance cause, knows all too well.
Spiglemyer, Crissman and Leshmer, of the
Lumber city, registered atthe St. Elmo on
Monday. They were hunting timber and
if their offer is accepted a steam saw mill
will soon be.in operation on Tussey moun-
tain. If our timber owners are half as wise
as they ought to be they would hold on to
their trees for lumber is becoming more
valuable every year and no where are trees
more needed than in farming communities ;
for the protection of the fields, as a preven-
tive of drouth and for the adornment of the
farms.
Wm. H. Brown had a narrow escape recently.
So narrow that he is even yet wondering how
it happened. He was unloading hay at his
when the horses started to run and he got
tangled up in the traces. In this perilous
position he was dragged along at the heels of
his horses until they ran against a tree, up-
set the wagon and broke the tongue. How
William escaped death no one knows but
with the exception of a few bruises and a
slight scalp wound he was not injured.
DEATH OF A Goop WomAN.—Elizabeth,
widow of George Eckle, died at her home, on
Main street, on Tuesday morning after an
illness of three weeks. For the last thirty
years she has been in delicate health but able
to oversee her household duties and attend
to her church and charitable work. Her
maiden name was Heston and she was born
at Hartleton 71 years ago. When quite a
young girl she came to this town and forty-
five years ago was married to Geo. Eckle,
who died three yearsago. Of her three chil-
dren her son,J. Calvin, is the only one living,
the two daughters having died some time
ago. She was an aunt of Prof. John Heston,
now of the State of Washington, and a little
grandson will miss her kindly ministrations.
She was buried on the morning ot the 12th,
and her pastor Rev. Black of the Reformed
church truthfully said of her that she was a
good woman well beloved.
AN OLD SOLDIER GONE.—Dent Ingram,
one of the best known farmers of Spruce
creek valley, died on the 4th, at his home
near Franklinville. He had been, in his
usual happy manner, conversing with some
where he sank to the floor and expired. He
was 54 years old and had a most pleasant and
generous disposition. He was a successful
farmer widely known among politicians as
he always took an active interest in the
Democratic party. His wife and several
brothers and sisters survive him. He was
buried at Franklinville on the 9th with Rev.
Ermentrout, of the Presbyterian church of
which he was a member, officiating.
