A FisH ANP GAME PROTECTIVE AsSSO-
CIATION TO BE ORGANIZED.—II- the plans
that have’ been. developing .for several
months do not fail to-night will witness
the organization of an association the need
of which Centre county bas felt for years.
It will be an organization of all true sports-
men in the county for the protection of fish
and game and the propagation of it.
At a preliminary meeting held in the ar-
bitration room Monday evening there were
about twenty-five enthusiasts present and
after the aims and purposes of such an or-
ganization had heen discussed at length a
committee to frame a constitution, select a
name and regulate rules of order was ap-
pointed as follows: John L. Knisely, Col.
W. F. Reeder, Robert F. Hunter, Thos. H.
Harter and John McGinley.. That com-
mittee will report this evening and the or-
ganization will take on permanency.
It is the hope of the gentlemen at the
head of the plan to be able to get sports-
men interested in it all over the county, so
that, collectively, the legitimate hunters
and fishers will be able to punish, all
violators of the law and do everything in
their power for the protection of the
streams and forests. It will also be one of
the aims of the association to plant and
care for the young trout and in order to
make membership something more to be
sought after than the mere interest in true
sport it is proposed that annual shooting
and fly casting tournaments be held, with
trophies of value enough to attract experts
from all sections.
Another feature that is proposed that
would prove an attractive one is a fall and
spring outing under the auspices of the asso-
ciation, during which the association would
establish and maintain a hunting or fishing
camp or some favorite ground, to which all
members of the association would have
entry.
Initiation and membership fees will be
small, so that all interested will be able co
join.

THE CHURCH CENSUS OF BELLEFONTE.
—Last week we published a short account
of the work done by the young people of
the various churches of the town in the
way of taking a religious census of Belle-
fonte. It was a very interesting undertak-
ing because it developed not only a close
approximation of the number of residents
in and about the place, but their church
preferences as well.
The report shows that the total number
of all ages is returned as 5,292, but those
figures cannot be taken as the population
of Bellefonte, proper, for they include the
residents of streets. in the outskirts of
the town, those about the Empire and
Bellefonte furnaces, Bush Addition and the
‘‘Red School House.” Of course some of
the committees did not do their work as
closely as others.and a number of persons
were missed, but for all purposes the report
is interesting and useful. }
It will be noticed that the Catholic
church is the only one in which the en-
rolled membership is anywhere near the to-
tal number of persons preferring that faith.
The Methodists have only 465 enrolled,
while there are 1,254 having ‘that prefer-
ence. .
The table showing the ‘denominational
preferences is as follows:

JosEPH NEWMAN IS DEAD. — Joseph
Newman, the youngest son of the late
Nathan Newman, died at the home of the
Dreyfuss family in Milton at 10 o’clock
Wednesday night. He had been ill for sev-
eral weeks with typhoid fever and while
the reports that came to his home were
quite discouraging, yet his friends hoped
that in the end he would survive and live
to fill the place he has in their affections.
He left here last September to enter the
Dreyfuss clothing store in Milton; having
resided with the family of his employer
where he received every attention that it
was possible to administer, but without
avail.
Deceased was the son of Nathan and
Mary Newman and was born in Lock Hav-
en Dec. 18th, 1868. When he was just a
child the family moved to this place,
where Joe grew up and was esteemd for
his quiet, unobtrusive habits and genteel
demeanor. Surviving him are his mother
and the following brothers and sisters:
Ferd, of Braddock; Mrs. William Grauer,
Anna and Nettie, of this place, and Mrs.
Morris Loeb, of Baltimore.
The body was brought here last evening
and interment will be made in the Jewish
cemetery this afternoon. Services will be
conducted at his mother’s home by Rabbi
Klein, of Altoona.

of O. M. Sheetz, of this place, died at her
home in Gastonville, Washington county,
on Sunday, Feb. 25th. Interment was
made on Wednesday afternoon.
ONE .OF THE AGED. TWINS IS GONE.—
Aside from the interest that has surround-
ed her as one of the oldest ¢wins in the
State Mrs. Sarah Rhone, who died at the
home of her son Leonard, near Centre Hall,
last Saturday morning, was a woman whose
personality has been such as to make her
passing away a matter of more than mo-
mentary interest in this community.
*Deceased was born in Cobnrn, Centre
county, on January 28th, 1810, making her
age at time of death 90 years and 26 days.
With her twin sister, Mrs. Lydia Young,
of Woodward, she celebrated the 90th an-
niversary of her birth last month.
She was the daughter of Ieonard Ker-
stetter, a German, who was one of the pion-
eers of this section. When about 20 years
of age she married Jacob Rhone, a sturdy
young Centre county farmer. In 1846 Jac-
ob Rhone purchased the Rhone homestead,
near Centre Hall, from his father’s heirs, a
tract which had been in the possession of
the Rhone family continuously since 1794,
but in 1853 “he died suddenly, leaving a
family of eight small children to the care
of his wife. ~ Mrs. Rhone took up the man-
agement of the estate, and managed it with
wonderful sagacity and executive ability,
erecting new buildings at a cost of several
thousand dollars, until 1869, when the
homestead was purchased by Leonard
Rhone who has occupied it ever since.
Mrs. Rhone was one of the eleven chil-
dren, all of whom are dead except her twin
sister Lydia and her younger brothers Dan-
iel and Samuel. She was a remarkable
woman in vigor and almost to the moment
of her death wasin full possession of her
faculties.

SADLY BEREAVED.—Mr. and Mrs. Ed-
ward Lucas, of Pine street, have been sad-
ly afflicted recently by the death of two of
their beloved children.

years and 9 months, succumbed to pneu-
monia on the 15th and was buried next day
at “‘The Divide.”” Last Thursday their in-
fant daughter, May, died and was consign-
ed to a grave at her brother’s side on Satur-
day.
Mr. and Mrs. Lucas have the heartfelt
sympathy of their neighbors in this their
hour of trial.

Diep SUDDENLY AT TUSSEYVILLE.—
One of the old Democratic war horses and
substantial men of the southern precinct of
Potter township died very suddenly at his
home in Tusseyville shortly after 8 o’clock
Wednesday morning. We refer to the
venerable William Rishell, who would
have been eighty years old had he survived
until the coming July.
‘Though he had complained a little of
late about his health it was not considered
serious at all. He arose Wednesday morn-
ing, seemingly all right and after break-
fast had been occupied in cutting the ice
from a trough outside. When he had
finished that he returned to the house
and while sitting on a chair near the stove
suddenly expired; it is thought from
the effects of a stroke of apoplexy or par-
alysis.
Deceased had been living a retired life
near Tusseyville, near the fine farm he
owned. He was a zealous member of the
United Evangelical church, according to
the rites of which funeral services will be
held at his late home to-morrow morning
at 10 o'clock.
A widow and one daughter, Mrs. Sam-
uel Swartz, of Tusseyville, survive.

HE WAS A NATIVE OF CENTRE COUNTY.
—From the County Capital, published at
St. John, Kansas, on January 19th, we take
the following account of the death of a
former resident of Centre county. Hunter
Neill lived at what is now called Paradise,
above Waddle’s, and was a brother of Rob-
ert Neill who was married to a sister of
Miss Katie Murray, of that place.
Hunter Neill died Tuesday January 9th,
1900, at his residence in Richland township,
aged 60 years, 11 months and nine days.
Evidently the cause of his death was appo-
plexy, as he had been working a little as
usual until a few minutes before he died.
Deceased was a native of Pennsylvania and
an old soldier, havingserved three years in Co
K, 2nd Pa. Volunteer Cavalry. With his wife
and family he came to Kansas in 78 be in gone
of the earliest settlers in this section. Their
family consisted of four boys and two girls.
The wife and mother preceded her husband
passing to the unknown shore more than ten
years ago.
Funeral services, conducted by Rev. A. C.
Brown, were held Thursday afternoon follow-
ed by interment in the Neeland cemetery.
We can truly say that Stafford county has
lost a good citizen, and the Capital joins the
many friends of the deceased in extending
sympathy and condolence to the bereaved
family.

valleys, passed peacefully out of this life
on Tuesday morning at 11:30 o'clock. She
was 88 years old on the 17th of July, 1899,
and her death was occasioned by the in-
firmities of old age.
Her lite long devotion to the Methodist
church and stead-fast hope in the saving
grace of her Master made her many years
of life a cycle of usefulness and kindly
ministration to those about her. She was
the daughter of Elijah Chambers and was
born near Penna Furnace; having married
‘Henry Hartsock early in life. To them six
children were born, John C., and Elizabeth,

Horatio C. WiLLraMs.—The death of
Horatio C. Williams occurred at his home
at Los Angeles, California, on Sunday Feb.
18th, after quite a protracted illness with
stomach trouble. His demise will be a
matter of sincere regret to the many friends
in this place who will remember him as‘the
business partner of his brother Samuel H.
Williams in the wall paper and painting
business here for a number of years prior
to 1885. ’
‘‘Rash,’”’ as he was most commonly
known, was born at Dowingtown, Chester
county, fifty-six years ago. Before he was
sixteen years old he enlisted in the army
and served with the 20th cavalry to the
close of the war. During his residence
here his health failed and in 1885 he sold
his home on Reynolds avenue, and’ went
West; settling first in Nebraska, thence go-
ing to Los Angeles, where he died.

— LATEST ANNOUNCEMENT, —
”
Lots of Goods are now in and more are
coming. We thought that we would have
our Complete Stock open for'your inspec-
tion on March 1st, and so, we advertised
our opening for that day, but we are sorry
we must apologize to you for our delay.
Still we have done some business, even he-
fore our opening.
Our methods are sure to niean success.
We'not only ;want to sell you once. We
want to sell you all the time. How can
we do this? By one way known to all;
fairness and squareness in all our business
dealings with you.
Some stores say they do this, but do they?
You know whether they do or not, maybe
you have been caught.
Make or break, we intend to begin right
from the start. What we tell you in the
newspapers, providing the printer makes
no mistakes in his printing is just as re-
liable as if you heard it verbally from our
mouth. ;
Fairness and squareness shall be our
motto. :
With this end in view success must crown
our effort.
Your money back tor the asking.
Give us a trial, that we may prove to you
that every statement made by us is a veri-
table fact.
Again we apologize for not having our
i entire stock on hand, although no fault of
ours, rather blame the eastern manufac
turers for their tardiness.
Give us a‘call, we may have what you
want, if we haven’t now we will have and
plenty of it too.
Respectfully yours,
SIM THE CLOTHIER.
