The entrance examination for the town- ship high school will be held in the Academy building on Monday Sept. the 3rd. The showers with which the thirsty land about here has been refreshed this week were not more than sufficent to lay the dust. J. F. Gearhart has started a hydraulic cider press south of town, where he hopes to grind up all the apples in this section into cider. Dr. J. Baker Krebs, of Northumberland, and his wife are enjoying a ten days visit with his friends here and at Centre Line, Mrs. Kreb’s home. Dr. Frank W.

Mrs. Isabella Thomas Zimmerman, of Kansas, well known here, is suffering from a paralytic stroke which effected her right side. She was much prostrated by the news of, Mr. J. B. Mitchell's death, in whose home she was raised and treated as a daughter. Ground is being broken for the foundation of a gasoline engine to run the mill. Rumor says, the gas will be furnished by the post office across the way, but it is the general impression that it will take all the gas the post office can generate to keep the stalwarts in line from this until election time. Harry and Maud Markle are mourning the death of their only son, George Jacob, who passed away at their home, just north of State College, on last Friday night, aged one year, 7 months and 12 days. He was buried in the Meyers graveyard on Sunday morn- ing at 12 o’clock, with Rev. Smith officiating. The picnic, last Saturday, at Baileyville, was a howling success. Indeed the crowd was so great one almost imagined it a centennial, The Baileyville band furnished plenty of music and there were loads of good things to eat. The Goheens, Gardners and McWil- liamses treated us royally and they will please consider our hat off for that dinner. The races resulted in A. M. Brown’s Croesus easily winning first prize. Boralma, owned by Ed. L. Irvin,carried off the second honors. The bicycle race, however, did not end so fortunately for Ralph Grazier stopped sud- denly and James Eckley coming full tilt be- hind him turned a complete flipper and re- ceived a lot of scratches. Grazier did not escape so easily, for he was carried off the field with his leg broken below the knee. Everything was sold out long before night, so there was no need of a festival. The P. 0. 8. of A. cleared $225, with the pienic. WASHINGTON GRANGE—The mid summer meeting of Centre county Pomona Grange was held in Washington Grange hall at Pine Hall on Tuesday. The weather did not smile propitiously for the meeting but it was so favorable for the crops that there wasa general rejoicing. At 10 o'clock the hall was well. filled, Victor Grange being especially well represented. The morning session was devoted to the usual routine of business with reports from the various committees. The merits of the different kinds of steam engines used by threshers was thoroughly discussed and in the discussion the Hon. Leonard Rhone and Col. Weaver took an active part. At twelve o'clock a most tempting lunch was served by the ladies of the Grange, which was enjoyed by everyone. The afternoon session was devoted chiefly to the interests of the Grange picnic and fairs, which will be held at Centro Hall and from present in- dications will be a first class exhibit of stock, poultry, implements etc. The fall meeting of the Grange will be held at Centre Hall in Nov. The Pine Hzll grange hall has re- . cently been repapered and painted by Mr. Curtis, of Lamar, and a new carpet isto be purch soon. | week at the home of J. H. B. Hartman. Mrs. Lewis Gettig, of Bellefonte, spent the Willie Weiser, of Altoona, is visiting his uncle, Mr. W. R. Weiser, of this place.

The town council has ordered a new cross: ing to be built across Penn street from Cen- tre street. The material is en the ground and the work will be completed by the end of the week. It is strange that a town like Coburn can decide to have a good supply of water in a few short months while the people of Mill- heim have agitated the question for years and are still without it. It is said that Mr. Henry Miller, of town, intends writing a book entitled, ‘The Woes of a Public Official.”” As the gentleman has had a long (?) and varied (?) experience he wi.l doubtless be able to do his subject am- ple justice. Philipsburg. Frank Gulliver, of Peale, spent Sunday in town with friends. Work on the remodeling of the M. E. church is progressing rapidly. | Mrs. G. W. Wise is home, after a month’s visit with relatives in DuBois. The new Reliance Fire Co., building on Presqueisle street is rapidly approaching completion. The excursion to Williamsport last Sat- urday was very well patronized from here and surrounding towns. The bridge destroyed by fire on the Ophir mine branch has been repaired and the mines are again in operation. We regret that W. H. Denlinger is con- templating moving his family to Patton in the early fall, where they will make their future home. There was no service in the Lutheran church last Sunday on account of the ab- sence of the pastor, Rev. Bright, who is tak- ing a brief vacation. Mrs. Schurman and daughters Katherine and Mary, arrived home last week from a six weeks visit with relatives in the eastern part of the State. Mr. and Mrs. James Stott, took in the special excursion to Niagara Falls and Buffalo. They returned home Saturday; having had a very, enjoyable trip. Mr. and Mrs. B.. F. Hoffer left last Thurs- day for a ten days run to Atlantic City and Philadelphia, Lawyer W, D. Crosby is also among the seashore sojourners this week. The council have decided to repair some of the very bad walks. Some say this is pre- paratory to getting free delivery. This is not clear, in view of the decrease in the postal receipts in the office here. Nearly all business places had their build- ings elaborately decorated for the firemen’s convention. All the hostleries made great preparation and served the crowds in at- tendance very satisfactorily. Grant Way, who was transferred from the P. R. R., repair shops here to Tyrone in the early spring has been transferred back again and will take up his residence hereas soon as he can secure a suitable house. During the severe electric storm on Mon- day afternoon lightning struck the barn of Duke Coplin, on 4th street, knocking a large hole through the roof and otherwise damag- ing the building. Fortunately the teams were not in the stable at that time. John Russell, accompanied by his wife, left Monday morning for a two weeks stay in New York State. They will visit the birth place of Mrs. Russell, at Acron, twenty miles east of Buffalo, taking in the great sights at Niagara Falls, Toronto and Roch- ester. ; ——Subseribe for the WATCHMAN. Montgomery & Co. Righ Valley Frank Allen has sold the grey pacer and is now ready to make arrangements for thc wedding. The berries are all picked and ithe pickers are out of something to do now until the chestnut crop comes on. Andrew Harter, our ex-postmaster, is what we call a genuine Bryan man. He offers to bet $100 that Bryan will be the next Presi- dent. Will Alter, the champion miner, says that mining is hard work, but if he was digging for a well of “Eby’s Best’’ then it would be different. A. F. Stover is dealing in Michigan cedar shingles and we would advise all inneed of them to call on him. He is a Bryan man and keeps no poor stock. Sheriff Brungard was at Coburn on Sat- urday waiting on a train west. He is about as lively as when he was selling steak and bologna in Millheim. The bed bug war is over. They have left the valley and established headquarters at Ingleby. It is rumored that they are plan- | ning a siege of Rankletown. The real estate agent passed Siding 36 the other day with a plug hat and stand-up collar on. What he was after I could not say, but it is rumored that he was buying a car load of flitch to send to Cambria county. Wm. Harter, the extensive lime burner of Pine Creek Mills, wants to know what has become of the High Valley news. All he needs to do to get it is to send 30cts. for the campaign or $1 fora whole year’s subscrip- tion to the WATCHMAN. There seems to be no fence law in effect in this valley and it is full of cattle. Everyone is welcome to pasture here. We have no high protection fences built up and the poor man can have his butter and milk as well as the trust fattened bond holder. Knights of the Golden Eagle, at Milton Pa.

Dearest baby we will miss you, As no more we hear your voice ; But we must consider that you were the Saviours choice. You have gone beyond life’s journey, Where it is forever bright; And we know the angels found a place for youn that night. How we miss you, little darling, But we know you were God’s claim; And our earnest prayer is that we will meet again. a. 1. Books, Magazines, Etc.

The subject to be given free to every reader of next Sunday’s Press is a beautiful “Bird Panel.” Tt portrays’a variety of birds faithfully and delicately reproduced in their natural colors, which will make for the picture a permanent place in our homes.
