MARRIAGE LICENSES.—Following is the
list of marriage licenses granted by or-
phan’s court clerk, A. G. Archey, dur-
ing the past week :
Francis A. Foreman and Sarah V. Kline,
both of Centre Hall.
G. W. Kelley, of Fillmore, and Anna
Leitzel, of Patton township.
John E. Rinka and Lizzie Immel, both
of Spring Mills.
George W. Johnson, of Fairbrook, and
Clara Cole, of Boalshurg.
Walter M. Barr, of Sandy Ridge, and
Bessey B. Cowher, of Taylor township.
Toner A. Hugg and Mary A. Kreamer,
both of Milesburg.
Elmer B. Jackson, of Lemont, and Sadie
Treaster, of Pleasant Gap.
Charles Boob and Alice Frederick, both
of Laurelton, Pa.
Robert Miller and Ida Knoffsinger, both
of Bellefonte.
Henry Beezer and Katharine Davison,
both of Bellefonte.
Centre Hall. »
Mrs. Reifsnyder, of Millhiem, is visiting
her daughter, Mrs. W. W. Boob.
J. W. Wolf and F.M. Crawford made a
business trip to Reedsville and Lewistown on
Monday.
Prof. B. M. W agonseller opened his school
Tuesday with eleven scholars. Miss Anna
Bartholomew has a large number of children
she is looking after. At noon hour the school
yard looks like the play ground of a kinder,
garten.
Dr. Jno. F. Alexander arrived home from
California, last evening, looking consider.
ably improved in health, though the strain
of the long journey caused a break down at
Tyrone, to which place Mrs. Alexander
journeyed to accompany him home.
Messrs. John Hosterman and Ralph Boozer
are attending school at Spring Mills, going to
and from that place by train. They help to
make the school of sixty odd pupils who are
instructed by Rev. D. M. Wolf, D. D. assist-
ed by John Keller, of this place, a student at
the theological seminary at Lancaster.
Dr. H. Glossner went to Luzerne county
last Saturday and from there will return to
his home in Paoli, near Philadelphia. He
had charge of Dr. Alexander’s practice for
six or more months and during that time
proved himself exceptionally well qualified
in his profession. Dr. Glosser also had
many enviable personal qualities, and during
his stay here gained the confidence and ad-
miration of all who learned to know him.
Samuel Shannon Post selected Prof. John
D. Meyer as orator on Decoration day. He
will fill the position with credit, undoubted-
ly, and have some new thoughts to present
to his hearers. The average Decoration day
orator uses the stereotyped expressions that
have long ago lost their grit, not because they
are not true, but because of familiarity.
The post should adopt some new program
for this May holiday. The attendance could
be greatly increased if properly agitated. Ef-
fort should be made to have decorations of a
more fitting character. The wild daisy, lilac,
locust blossom and dandelion are pretty, of
course, but the man who stood in battle or
showed a willingness to do so by enlisting, is
entitled to the prettiest and sweetest of the
floral kingdom. Who will hesitate to lay
the loveliest flower on the grave of the de-
parted hero? Let the soldiers have the flow-
ers and attention on Decoration day; the
graves of those bound by ties of consanguini-
ty can be looked afterat another time. Dec-
oration day is distinctly a soldier’s day and
no one should attempt to rob it of flowers
to put them on the graves of personal friends
and relatives. The dead do not want this
habitual robbery of the soldier’s legacy and
it should be no longer practiced.
The trustees of the Centre Hall cemetery
should go on and complete the work begun
last summer and put the burying ground in
first class condition. There are some un-
sightly spectacles to be seen on the ground un-
der the trust ees’ management. Improvements
that suggest themselves to the passers by are
many. Among them are these: The head
and foot stones should be stood erect. There
are many grave marks there who have no
one to care for them. All such should be
taken in charge by the trustees and properly
placed. Not a marker of any description
should be left stand at any angle except per-
pendicular after the fifteenth of May. Why
collect moneys if they are not to be expended
on beautifying the burying ground. Anoth-
er improvement should be gravel walks and
driveways, which are within the reach of the
treasury receipts.
Pine Grove Mention.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Kustaborder, of
State College, attended Easter services here.
Sheriff Brungard transacted business here
pertaining to his office last Saturday.
Martin Dreiblebis is happy over the advent
of a baby boy at his home. His family now
numbers two girls and one boy.
The grain came out of winter quarters in
bad condition so that at best but halfa crop
can be expected. The hay crop will also be
short as the grass was badly frozen.
Lowel Smith, one of our boys who is now
in the Jefferson hospital in Philadelphia,
writes that he is slowly improving and that
Dr. Kune thinks an operation is unnecessary.
Mrs. Simon S. McCormick,of Hublershurg,
and her children are visiting at the Dannley
home here. Before leaving they will spend
some time with the doctor’s relatives at Pine
Hall.
Mrs. John McGill returned to her home at
McAlevey’s Fort Tuesday after a delightful
visit with her friends at Fairbrook and the
Glades. She was a guest at the home of G-
W. McWilliams.
Levi Krebs returned home Saturday from
the German hospital in Philadelphia where
he was treated for stomach trouble. He is
now able to be about and hopes that with the
coming of warm weather he will regain his
health more rapidly.
The recent floods washed our roads so that
supervisor Hess has had to make several
tours of inspection and lots of repairs. At
Pine Hall great gullies were washed and
deep sinks formed close by the road and at
one place extended clear across the road.
It was filled and bridged over with planks.
Every spring new cavities form at that point
and a year ago Mr. Corl investigated and
found that a hundred feet below the surface
there seemed to be a subterranean passage
from which rumbling sounds could be heard.
George M. Johnson and Miss Clara Cole
were married at the county seaton Thurs-
day the 12th by the Rev. Wilford Shriner, of
the Methodist church. On their return the
calithumpians gave them a royal welcome
which cost the groom a whole box of tobies.
This is the groom’s fourth venture in the
matrimonial line but the bride, Miss Clara
Cole, is the very picture of health and bids
fair to have a longer lease of life than any
of his former helpmates. She is a daughter
of the late Abram Cole, of Boalsburg, and is
an expert housekeeper. The groom is one
of our tallestand best farmers and at present
is tilling the acres of the Ewing farm at Fair-
brook.
Mzs. ELIZABETH HARPSTER.-—The death
of Mrs. Elizabeth Gates Harpster, at her
home in Gatesburg, at midnight of the 13th
after a long illness of lung trouble was not
unexpected. She is the last one of the fam-
ily for whom the little town in which she
was born and lived was named. There she
was known as aunt Betsy and because of
pleasing ways and generous kindly disposi-
tion was greatly loved by the entire neigh-
borhood. She was born on the 13th, of May
1826, and fifty years ago she married Chris-
topher Harpster. Four of her children sur-
vive to mourn a dear, good mother. Mrs.
Elliott Ward, of Washington, Pa.; Mrs.
Samuel Boop, of Pleasant Gap; David Harp-
ster, of Half-Moon, and Isaac at the old
home. She was buried on Monday at 10
o'clock in the Gatesburg cemetery by the
side of her husband. Rev. Aikens conducted
the services and paid a glowing tribute to her
noble christian character and church work.
The pall-bearers were John R. Lemon, Jacob
Krider, Cyrus Barr, Levi Garber, Jacob
Rider and Howard Barr.
Millheim.
Mrs. M. C. Gephart is visiting at Johns-
town.
Francis Ulrich has been given employ-
ment by postmaster Spigelmyer as assistant.
Edward Williams visited the home of his
brother-in-law, Prof. H. C. Rothrock, over
Sunday.
The Commercial Telephone Company is
putting an exchange in town this week and
intends stringing the wires between here and
Brush valley.
Mrs. Rachael Hummel, of Milton, and her
daughter, Mrs. Elmer Noll, of Lancaster, are
visiting friends and relatives in Millheim
this week.
Warren Swanger, who had been spending
his spring vacation in town with his parents,
left, Monday afternoon, for Muncy, where
he is employed as a telegraph operator.
Trout fishing in Elk creek this year has
been reported as being very poor, although
the banks of the stream are daily lined with
disciples of Old Walton, yet there have been
no remarkable catches made.
The Easter cantata which was rendered in
the Methodist church last Sunday was a suc-
cess. The class consisted of twenty persons
who, under the efficient instruction of Mr.
Harry Kister, certainly acquitted themselves
nobly.
NEW ORLEANS, La., April 17.—The
election to-day in Louisiana for members
of the Legislature and full state ticket re-
sultel in a Democratic landslide. The
ticket headed hy Auditor Heard swept the
State from one end to the other and the
Legislature is overwhelmingly Demceratic.
To-day’s was the first election held un-
der the constitution disfranchising the ne-
gro and the battle at the polls was fought
almost exclusively by the whites. Three
state tickets were in the field, the Denio-
cratic, the Republicans and the fusion em-
bracing planters, independent Democrats
and Populists. The Democratic majority
in the State will exceed 25,000 and may
reach 50,000.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR BusiNess.—At towns on the
new lines of the Chicago & North-Western Rail-
way are summarized in a pamphlet that may be

Women Get Rich as Well as Men.
How Cne Woman Makes $18.00 to $40.00 a Week.
Many women say it is hard to get along in the
world because they do not have the chance to
make money that men do. I disagree with them,
for I am perfectly independent since starting in
business a few months ago, and never make less
than $18.00 a week, and often as much as $40.00. I
am. selling Baird’s Non-Alcoholic Flavoring
Powders, which are much superior and cheaper
| than the liquid extracts sold in stores. Before
starting I wrote to the Baird Mfg. Co., Baird
Building, Pittsburg, Pa., and obtained samples
which we tried in cakes, candies, custards, and
ice cream at our church sociable. Everything
was so delicious that 1 wrote for the agency at
once, and had no trouble in establishing a regular
trade with my neighbors, which only occupies
the time I can spare from household duties. The
manufacturers say they will employ any earnest
person, man or woman, who can spare all or part
of their time, and I can say I never heard of
such an easy way to make money. MRS, W—-o
