REV, HICKS PREDICTS JANUARY
WEATHER :(—Rev. Irl R. Hicks in his fore-
cast for January says: The 3rd to 5th
are reactionary storm centres, accompanied
"by continued cloudiness and rain and sleet,
attended by high winds. About the 3rd
to 5th rain will turn to heavy sleet and
snow northward, followed by high winds
and cold waves from the northwest. The
cold is expected to moderate during the
vulcan storm period, central on 9th to 11th,
and more storms of rain turning to snow in
most sections northward will travel from
west to east about the 9th to 12th, chang-
ing to much colder over most parts of the
country.
Second storm period from 15th to 17th
ending in rain or snow, followed by high
barometric pressure, stiff northwest winds
and cold. From 19th to 23rd, warmer
weather followed by general storms of rain
and snow, the storms running their course
from west to east from 20th to 23rd. The
26th and 27th are at the centre of reaction-
ary storm movements, and raw, chilling |
weather will likely prevail. The month
will end with storm conditions brewing.
— rere
——There will be three eclipses during
the year 1900; two of the sun and one of
the moon. The eclipse of the sun, on May
28th, will be particularly interesting as it
will be nearly total.

cent epidemic, only a week’s vacation was

but that distance does not deter them from
keeping in close touch with their old neigh-
bors. H. C. will graduate from the medieal
department of the Pennsylvania University
this year, and Ed. expects to enter there in
the fall, so the Myers will not lack for
doctors. ;
The Christmas festivities were ushered in
in this end of the county by the entertain-
ment in the Pine Hall Lutheran church on
Saturday evening. On Sunday evening the
scholars of the Lutheran Sabbath schoolgave
one of their splendid entertainments to a full

vices were very: ereditable to the younger
members of the schools.

valley lodge, number 276, of the I. O. O. F.
celebrated their fifty-second anniversary

Main street. The committee had spared no
pains to perfect all the arrangements and
every one of the ‘guests were accorded a
hearty welcome and a pleasurable evening.
Covers were laid for 85 and every place was
taken. The tables were elaborately decorated
with ferns and potted plants and theevening
was enlivened with music with Miss Annie

erling was toast master while Dr. B. Gill, of
State College, Rev. Aikens, H. C. Meyers,

the enjoyment of the evening by responding
to toasts. It was fully midnight when the
guests began to depart and all acknowledged
that the banquet had been a great success.
EMANUEL SUNDAY.—The announcement
of the death of Emanuel Sunday, on the
evening of the 27th, was not surprising inas-
much as he had suffered for six months with
cancer of the throat and had been in a pre-
carious condition for weeks. He actually
starved to death as he had not been able to
swallow a drop even of water for days pre-
vious. He was in Philadelphia in September
for treatment but he received very little en-
couragement and very little relief, and since
that has grown steadily worse. He was
born March 2nd 1843 near Tusseyville this
county. His father, the late John Sunday,
was one of the pioneers of this section. Sep-
tember 5th, 1865, he married Lydia Gates
and to them were born nine children seven
of whom are living, He was an elder of the
Gatesburg Lutheran church and a faithful
was a Democrat aud filled many positions of
trust with fidelity. He was a kind husband,
indulgent father, and thoughtful brother and
his ‘wife and family have the sympathy of
the- entire neighborhood. His two sisters
living are Mrs. Sarah Gephart and Mrs.
Amelia Gates both residents of Michigan.
He was buried on the 28th, at 10:30 o’clock
in the Gatesburg cemetery. Rev. Aikens
paid a glowing tribute to his character, life
and usefulness.

this place. She had been in that place for a
considerable length of time and expects to

Reedsville, attended the funeral of Mrs. Van

Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Van Pelt and Mrs. R.
G. H. Speed, of Ithaca, N. Y., attended the
funeral of Mrs. Van Pelt. Mrs. Van Pelt
came here on this sad mission at considerable
risk of her own health, having just recover-
ed from an illness that confined her to bed.
Mrs. Speed is a sister of Mrs. Van Pelt.
The several congregations comprising the
Reformed charge of Centre Hall, were so
pleased with the Rev. Kerschner, of New
York, who filled appointments here last
week, that a call was extended him last Sat-
urday at a meeting of the Consistory.
Whether or not the reverend gentleman will
accept the summons to this field is as yet not
known. His manners on and off the pulpit
impressed all in the most favorable way:
Progress grange met in regular session in
their hall Saturday and elected officers for
1900: Master, Hon. L. Rhone ; overseer,
Geo. Gingerich; lecturer, S. W. Smith;
steward, B. Shafer ; assistant steward, C. D,
Keller ; chaplain, J. R. Lawyers; treasurer,
John Arney ; secretary, D. K. Keller; gate-
keeper, Levi Stump ; Pomona, Estie Ocker;
Flora, May Stump; Ceres, Cassie Spicher; lady
assistant steward, Florence Rhone; insur-
ance director, J. A. Keller. The installa-
tion will take place Saturday of the 13th
inst. Col. Jas. Weaver, of Milesburg, will
instruct the new officers. The families of
the Patrons are invited to be prese nt upon
this occasion.
The installation of officers in the order of
Masons is always attended with considerable
importance by the Centre Hall lodge, and
the installation that took place recently was
n o exception to the rule. The order is in
prime condition and hasa membership to-day
of sixty odd devotees. After the ceremonies
of installation had been performed by Col.
W. F. Reeder, of the Bellefonte lodge, and
master W. S. Musser, of Spring Mills, and
those of lesser importance had been inducted
into office, W. B. Mingle Esq., made an im-
promptu address to his fellows. His talk
was somewhat of a historical nature, and
said that the Centre Hall lodge was consti-
tuted August, 1875, with a membership of
nine, viz}: W. B. Mingle, master; J. A.
Fleming, senior warden ; Henry R. Smith,
junior warden; C.F. Herlacher, secretary ;
Daniel C. Keller, treasurer, and John P.
Odenkirk, Oliver P. Rearick, Robert McCor-
mick, Henry C, Beamer. Those who are ac-
quainted in this valley will see how often
time has decimated this number.
After the officers had been instructed con-
cerning the unwritten work of the order by
Col. Reeder all proceeded to the establish-
ment of E. C. Nearhood, where a supper fit
for the gods was in waiting, to which a few
not acquainted with the mysteries of Free
Masonry were. invited and responded.
Messrs. Harry Keller, Boyd Musser and Dr.
J. J. Y. Dale, of the Bellefonte lodge, were
also guests.

THE Prerriesr Cauenpar.—Hood's Sarsaparilla
Proverb Calendar for 1900 is the prettiest we have
seen. It is borne in front of two little girls,
whose fresh, sweet faces, and dainty robes of
blue and pink form a pleasing picture upon which
to look during the coming year. The Calendar is
printed from large, plain type and gives valuable
information. The Calendar is made to stand
alone or it can be suspended from the wall.
Everyone will want Hood’s Calendar, and you
should ask your druggist for it at once. You can
obtain one, if more convenient, by sending 6
cents in stamps to C. I. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.
—The complete novel of the January ¢NEw
Lippincott” js “The Bread Line,” by Albert Bige-
low Paine. This gentle humorist tells a masterly
story which begins on New Year's night at the
Model Bakery, in New York, where the line of
hungry tramps wait for a crust, and ends there a
year later. The interval is devoted to starting a
newspaper in a bohemian studio, New York’s
“Latin quarter’’ is true to the life, yet an idyllic
strain of love makes a man of the hero.
EvERYBODY’S MAGAZINE FOR JANUARY.—The con-
ductors of Everybody's Magazine are evidently
endeavoring to give their readers a bountiful ten
cents’ worth. The contents for the January
number include seven complete ‘short stories,
eight special articles on subjects of current inter-
est or profitable instruction, a little poetry, a lit-
book-buying hints and a hundred and thirty-two
illustrations. :
Not the least interesting page in the book is
that in the advertising section, whereon the edi-
tor tells us what Everybody’s Magazine is to coun-
| tain during 1900. If he gives us all he says he
will, it will be a big dollar's: worth.
