    DEATH
After an illness of six months the spirit of
Mrs. Michael Myers went to the God who
gave it, at the home of her daughter, Mis.
Ellis Way, in Union township. Some
time ago Mrs. Myers had a stroke of paraly-
sis. Instead of getting better she gradually
grew worse, but it was not until six weeks
prior to her death that she was compelled
to take her bed. The best medical skill
and nursing was brought to her relief but
they were inadequate to stay the stern
hand of death. She grew weaker until
Thursday, Aug. 10th, she passed calmly
away with the members of the family by
her bedside.
The deceased was horn in Half Moon
valley 82 years ago. Her maiden name was
Leah Stine. In the faith of the Methodist
church she has taken her departure but
her Christian influence and godly life she
has left behind so that those who follow in
her footsteps will become jewels in the
home and in the church. She leaves to
mourn her loss six children, 62 grand-chil-
dren, 30 great grand-children, one great
great’ grand-child, one sister and two broth-
ers, John, Philipsburg; Wm. and Mrs.
Joseph Lowery, Coleville; Mrs. Nelson Lu-
cas, Washington, D. C.; Mrs. Daniel Pow-
ers, Kansas; Mrs. John MeDivit, Pittsburg;
Mrs. Ellis Way, near Unionville. Her
hushand preceded her to the grave twelve
years ago. The services were held at the
house and conducted by Rev. King, who
based his remarks on the first verse of the
14th chapter of John.
Interment at Myers cemetery where there
was an immense crowd gathered to see the
deceased laid to rest. L. E.

D1ED WITH CONGESTION OF THE LUNGS.
—Miss Anna R. Greene, daughter of F.
Peebles Greene, died at the family home on
South Water street early Sunday morning,
after a short illness with congestion of the
lungs brought on by an affected heart.
She had been in delicate health for several
years previous, but it was not thought that
her death was so near at hand.
Miss Greene was born Oct. 16th, 1863, at
Manor Hill, Huntingdon county, where the
early part of her life was spent until her
parents came to make their home in this
place. She was distinctively a home girl
and before the failure of her health was a
great comfort to her parents. Having join-
ed the Methodist church early in life she
was active in all departments of the church
work so long as she was able and no task
for the Master’s cause was too great for her
to undertake in the zealous sincerety of her
faith.
Besides her father and mother the follow-
ing brothers and sister survive: Edgar B.,
Altoona; Elmer C., Erie; and Miss Ida, at
home.
Short services were held at the house
Tuesday afternoon, after which the body
was taken to the Methodist church, where
Rev. Dr. Stephens delivered a memorial
sermon, paying just tribute to the pure,
hopeful life she led. Interment was made
in the Union cemetery.

Mgs. CHARLES KRAMER.—Rose Della
Kramer, wife of Charles Kramer, died at
the family home on Willowbank street
shortly after 10 o’clock last Friday night.
She had suffered for a number of years with
dropsy and while her death was a sad event
to her husband it was not as if he had not
been prepared for the inevitable.
She was born at Aaronshurg, December
22nd, 1868, and was the daughter of Jesse
Kramer. She was married to Mr. Kramer
on June 26th, 1886. No children blessed
their union, though an adopted daughter
has been a great comfort to their home.
Mrs. Kramer was an earnest christian wom-
an, being a member of the Aaronsburg
Lutheran church and her remains were
taken to her old home in that place on
Monday morning for burial there. On Sat-
urday evening Dr. Holloway conducted
services at the home here and on Tuesday
morning Rev. Dr. D. M. Wolf, officiated at
the last sad rites in the Aaronsburg ceme-
tery.

——George Fleck, a son of the late Sam-
uel Fleck and brother of Mrs. James Scho-
field of this place, died in Philipsburg on
Friday morning. Deceased was 33 years
old and had been suffering with dropsy for
some time. He had been in poor health for
more than a year, but his friends were
hopeful of his recovery until the dropsical
tendencies developed and caused his end.
Interment was made from the home of
Thomas Whitton, where Mr. Fleck had liv-
ed for some time.

——Mrs. Rebecca Brown, relict of the
late Samuel Brown, died at the home of
her daughter, Mrs. Maize, in Aaronsburg,
last Wednesday. She suffered a stroke of
paralysis about four weeks ago and never
recovered. Deceased was born in Berks
county, April 5th, 1814, and was married
to Mr. Brown in 1864; their union having
been blessed by eleven children.

NEw ENTERTAINMENTS FOR THE
GRANGERS' Picytc.—The 26th annual
encampment of the Patrons of Husbandry
will be held at Grange park, Centre Hall,
Sept. 15th to 22nd.
Indications now point to its being the
the largest encampment and exhibition
held at the park for years. An entirely
new class of entertainments have been en-
gaged for. this year, among them will be
a Spanish village, a naval battle and many
other amusements in process of arrange-
ment.
This promises to be one of the largest
fairs in the central part of the State.

COUNCILMEN IN TROUBLE.—The mem-
bers of the Tyrone council and ‘the owners
of the water works from which that town
is supplied with part of the liquid it drinks
have had a fight over the question of water
rents. The result of the difficulty has
been to cause the water company to shut
off the supply of water to the fire plugs in
the town. Of course this left Tyrone en-
tirely helpless in the event of fire and four
of her councilmen: Walter Burley, John
K. Ray, W. Fisk Conrad and Emory Piper,
started and turned the water back into the
plugs. They had succeeded in re-establish-
ing six when they were arrested at the in-
stance of the water company.
They were given a hearing before a mag-
istrate in Altoona on Saturday afternoon
and each fined $560. The councilmen will
appeal their case to court.

A BELLEFONTE Boy IN THE PHILIP-
PINES.— Under date of July 13th Edward
Schofield, a son of Hon. Jas. Schofield, of this
place, who is now attached to Co. I, 16th
Reg., U. 8S. A., has written to his parents.
i The letter, while brief, contains some in-
formation which all of Ed’s friends in this
section will be glad to get and for that
reason we publish extracts from it.
3 was glad to receive the papers
you sent me because we get so few of them.
Being out on the northern end of the firing
line now we have a splendid camp, although
it is a little dangerous on out post duty with
the Filipinos scarcely three miles away from
us. We had a little excitement yesterday
when we were wading through rice fields and
in water up to our waists while chasing the
‘$2 niggers’ from our lines. None of the
boys were hurt, however, and as we have a
splendid captain who handles us always to
the best we came out of the brush feeling
quite like you would after a good afternoon’s
sport at Hecla park. In the June number of
Seribner’s magazine is published a very fair
picture of the block house at which we are
encamped. It is called Caloocan.
Manila is a fine old city with some of the
grandest churches to be seen anywhere.
Most of the ornamentation about the altars is
of solid gold. In the one in which our head-
quarters are located is a solid gold image of
Christ hanging on the cross.
It rains here for hours without stopping,
but we don’t mind it a bit. The sun is ter-
rifically hot, but I don’t believe it is as un-
healthy as some of the papers led me to be-
lieve it to be when I was in Bellefonte little
dreaming that so soon would I be in arms for
my country. At all events there are six
thousand of our soldiers in the various hos-
pitals, which fact, alone, suggests something
unhealthful somewhere.
I would like to get a couple of Filipinos
before any of them get me, if that is to be my
fate. It is so easy fighting them and we have
over a thousand prisoners. The trip out was
just as pleasant as could be. I was not sick
a day and we didn’t lose a man until one
fellow took a notion to jump off a bridge into
Manila bay and never came to the top
again.
Don’t expect me to write often as paper
and envelopes are both hard to procure out
here on the firing line and there is no telling
when there will be an end of it, as it seems to
be the policy to keep up a desultory conflict
in winning and then abandoning territory,
instead of making a concerted, aggressive
campaign that would at least allay the Fili-
pino suspicion that we are cowards. * * *
Tell the boys that monkeys are worth only
$1 here and parrots are $2 per pair.
EDWARD M. SCHOFIELD.
A ProFITABLE Prcxic.—The most prof-
itable picnic we have heard of this season
was the one given by the Catholic church
of Frenchville, Clearfield county, on the
17th inst. The gross receipts were $327.26
out of which $220.29 were paid for ex-
penses, leaving a net balance of $606.97 for
the church treasury.
The picnic was attended by more than a
thousand people and all of them had a good
time.

she will be the guest of Mrs. N. B. Spangler.
The Gatesburg picnic, last Saturday, was a

If the township constables would do their
duty the forest fires would not cause such
devastation and destruction in the mountains

The musical and lawn social at the par-
sonage, on Wednesday, given by the ladies
of the Lutheran church was well attended
and all told a success. An excellent pro-

of all kinds were served resulting in a nice
little sum for the carpet fund.

our old chum Wat O'Bryan tarried in town
this week for a few days to relate some of
the incidents of his trip. He was accom-

Miss Jennie O’Bryan, daughter of Joseph
O’Bryan.
A mistake was made in the shipment of
some parts of the machinery belonging to the
boiler that is to be placed in the Pine Grove
roller mills and in consequence work is al-
most suspended there. But in a few days
the engine will be completed and then it will
make no difference whether water is scarce
or not, as the wheels can grind day and
night.
Judge Beaver aud his son Tom spent a few
hours in town on Wednesday en route to the
Kishacoquillas picnic, where he was booked
for a speech. It is many years since his
school days at the academy here and many
changes have taken place in that time but he
has always time to be cordial to his old
friends and recall the pleasures of his school
life. While here he stopped atJ. B. Mitchells.
Last Saturday our school board met to pass
judgment on the new school house Joe
Meyers built on the Kepler district. It is
now fully completed ready for the furnish-
ings. The building is painted white with
brown trimmings and is a credit not only to
the builder but to the board and township.
Mr. Meyers is an excellent mechanic and a
hustler but ’tis a pity that he isa Republi-
can. He was recently awarded the contract
for eight houses at Logan. The old school
house was sold to Levi Krebs for $32,50.
In the absence from home of Wm. Meyers,
on last Saturday night, his little daughter
did the feeding and thoughtlessly left the
dung fork on a pile of straw on which their
pet driving horse soon chanced to step. The
fork penetrated it’s bowels and endeavoring
to free itself from the fork it broke off the
handle while the fork remained firmly em-
bedded in its side causing death in a very
short time. Accidents similar to this occur
so often that parents should insist upon a
place for everything and everything in its
place.
THE BLooM REUNTON.—On last Saturday,
the first reunion of the Bloom family was
held in the beautiful grove at Bloomsdorf,
now owned by W. Harrison Bloom, and was
a most enjoyable event. One hundred and
thirty descendents were present with many
old friends and acquaintances. The day was
spent in relating reminiscences, playing
games, feasting on good things and having a
social joyous time. A movement towards a
permanent organization was made by elect-
ing D. L. Dennis, president; W. A. Bloom,
vice president: B. F. Homan, secretary and
Emil Peters, treasurer. A second reunion
was agreed upon and it was decided to hold
it ab the same place early in June next year,
when an effort will be made to have the
entire Bloom posterity present. Frank
Homan, the historian, is especially desirous
that every member of the family will do his
or her share in contributing facts for the
history as without concerted effort the record
will be a failure.
The family came from Germany in 1760
and located first in Buffalo valley. About a
century ago they moved to Earleystown, in
this county, and some years later Henry and
Susan Bloom se ttled on the present ancestral
home. Their children were John, Catharine,
Susan, George, Hannah, Samuel, Henry,
Sallie, William and Elizabeth all now dead
but one. She, Mrs. Sallie Moore, of Boals-
burg, was present and so hale and hearty
that she bids fair to live to be a centenarian.
Grouped about her were five generations of
the family when the photographer came to
get his impression of the reunion and a very
healthy looking group it was. Dinner was
served at 12 o'clock and the tables fairly
sagged under their load of good things. The
writer was the guest of the Peters and From
family and they can accept our very best
bow in return for their excellent dinner.

and is a young man with a good record as a

The Seven mountains were on fire on Mon-
day in the neighborhood of Potters Mills.
A brisk shower of rain struck that region in
the middle of the afternoon and extinguished
the flames before much damage was done.
Al Weiland and wife, of Syracuse, N. Y.,
are spending a short time at the former’s old
home in Linden Hall, and were to town to
shake hands with their many friends. Mr.
Weiland holds a position with a large pick-
ling establishment in Syracuse.
The Pennsylvania railroad company don’t
take kindly to advice, as a rule, but the ex-
penditure of a few dollars in putting a hy-
drant in the stock yards at the station would
be a blessing to the many carloads of cattle
shipped from this station. Perhaps if the
dozen drovers who ship from this station
would petition the railroad company that
corporation would grant the request. Who
will do a good deed for the poor brutes and
bring the matter before the company.
The apple evaporator will be put in opera-
tion in the near future. D. A. Boozer bought
a half interest in the concern and now the
firm name will be Boozer & Miner, the latter
gentleman being from New York. An ex-
perienced man in the business will manage
the dry ovens, and a better grade of good
goods will be made than was the case last
season. The concern gives employment to a
number of young people, and also makes a
market for a grade of apples that were here-
tofore largely wasted.
It is likely that the business men’s picnic
will be well attended from this side the
mountain. The accommodations to reach
the park from here are not of such a char-
acter to induce the populace to attend gath-
erings at that place, in fact, there isno way
of reaching that point at all except by pri-
vate conveyance. A special train from Co-
burn to Bellefonte would permit many to at-
tend the Ttusiness men’s pienic that other-
wise can not.
The grasshoppers made their appearance in
many parts of the valley this season. At
haying time the hoppers were yet exceeding-
ly small, scarcely noticeable, but the dry
weather following was very favorable to their
maturing, and to-day they are big and fat
and have about lived out their time. The
pest has not been among the Pennsvalley
farmers to any extent for five or six years,
and it is hoped the present crop will not be
able to make itself felt in the succeeding
years. There is, however, just a bit of sus-
picion that the present brood of hoppers will
lay sufficient eggs to yield a crop that will
next year do great damage.
Several laborers were at work this week in
the cemetery. The graves in what is known
as the old section of the cemetery were level-
ed off and an effort will be made to eradicate
a poisonous vine and other obnoxious weeds.
The cemetery association is in such a finan-
cial condition that it could and ought to
spend more money to improve the grounds.
The part of the burying ground referred to is
crowded with graves and many have entire-
ly been obliterated on account of not having
head and foot stones. By the expenditure of
a little money and labor frequently a great
improvement could be made. The trustees,
no doubt, have in mind to clean up this badly
neglected section of the cemetery and their
efforts will be appreciated by those who pay
personal attention to the graves of friends
and relatives. Don’t stop the good work un-
til it is thoroughly done.
The water! What about the water? It’s
all right—the new plant. Another spring of
water leased from Samuel Bruss was put into
the new reservoir on Saturday evening. The
supply of water was increased about fifty per
cent. by this addition. The citizens of the
town, except the members of the old water
company and a few allies, are satisfied with
the condition of affairs regarding the bor-
ough water plant, they are not complaining.
B. H. Arney is aman who figures pretty
carefully and can be trusted as to truth. He
estimates that on Monday two thousand bar-
rels of water were consumed. On Tuesday
evening there were more than three feet of
water in the reservoir, which, by the way, is
more than the largest reservoir of the old
company holds. At this writing the surplus
in the reservoir is gradually gaining, and
there is a full supply for ‘‘domestic and
mechanical purposes.”” It may be said to the
new plants credit that at no time since its
operation have the fires in engines been
drawn for want of water, which was the case
frequently heretofore. If the present sup-
ply is not sufficient there are other never-
failing springs that can be utilized.
Books, Magazines, Etc.
The September number of the “New Lippincott”

sort. There is abundant and varied fiction, be-
ginning with the complete novel by Maurice

Stuart, Mrs. Schuyler Crowninshield, E. F. Ben-
son, Maurice Thompson, and Albert Bigelow
Paine; there is matter for yachtsmen and for the
veterans of the (i. A. R.; there is literature, social
life, picturesque history, and national interests.
Everybody is served with his favorite dish and
each will like the choice of all the rest.

1: DIFFERENT
THE NORTH AMERICAN
(PHILADELPHIA.)
IT'S DIFFERENT, because it prints all the
news, and all the news it prints is true.
IT'S DIFFERENT, because it’s bright and brisk,
up-to-date and vigorous, but not yellow.
IT'S DIFFERENT, because its only policy is to tel}
the truth. It has no covert or personal in-
terests to promote. It serves no political am-
bition, no creed, no class prejudice, no mere
partisan purpose.
IT'S DIFFERENT, because it advocates equaj
taxation and battles against the existing sys-
tem, which favors the rich corporation at the
expense of the farmer, the merchant, the
manufacturer and the wage-earner.
IT'S DIFFERENT, because it stands for Repub-
lican principles, and makes war upon all who
under the stolen name of Republicanism, are
disloyal to those principles.
11'S DIFFERENT, because it believes manhood
and not money should rule. Therefore, it up-
holds the rights of all, as against the agressive
power of the privileged few.
IT’S DIFFERENT, because no boss, no corpora-
tion, can control one line of its space.
IT'S DIFFERENT, because it is nonsectarian
and broad; every party, every faith, every
class, and the working man equal with the
millionaire, gets a fair hearing in its col-
umns.
IT'S DIFFERENT, because it
upholds faith in humani-
it, and the progress of
mankind towar, higher DE
ideals, larger hopes and EVERY-
better living. | WHERE |
IT'S DIFFERENT. It will continue to be dif
ferent. Watch the North American and see
it grow. 44-32-3t.
