A BeaumiFvn FArn WEDDING.—The most notable social event and the largest wedding that has ever been celebrated in Bellefonte was that of Miss Helen Rankin Hastings to Ross Anderson Hickok, of Har- rishurg, in the Preshyterian church on Wednesday evening at 7 o'clock. The three thousand invitations that had been sent out brought hundreds of guests to town and the gladsome sunshine of a perfect fall day seemed to be carried clear into the night by the brilliant functions that marked ite close. The Presbyterian church, the largest in town, was crowded long before the hour for the ceremony and the street in front was thronged with pecple who were unable to gain entrance at all. The interior. so beautiful without adornment, had received just a touch from the hand of a profession- al decorator, but enough to make it in full harmony with the quaint beauty of the bridal party. Precisely at 7 o'clock Mrs. J. Malcolm Laurie, the organist of the church, played the bridal chorus from Lohengrin, and from each side of the altar and to the right and left of the high organ rail came the ten bridesmaids, five on each side. They were Miss Margaret Scott Graham, of Pittsburg; Miss Louise Heffelfinger, Minneapolis; Misses Charlotte and Clara Rust, Cleve- land; Miss Mary Boas and Miss Harriet Gilbert, Harrisburg; Miss Catherine Law- son and Miss Nellie McCormick, Wil- liamsport, and Miss Adaline Harris and Miss Elizabeth Breeze, the granddaughters of ex-Governor Curtin, of Bellefonte. To the further end of the church walked the bridesmaids, followed by the maid of honor, Miss Louise Hickok, of Harrisburg. The ushers quickly followed the brides- maids and awaited the bride's coming. Upon her entrance the entire party moved to the altar. First came the ushers, Richard Camer- on Haldeman, Charles W. Hickok, Wm.O. Hickok, Orville Schell, Frank J. Hall, Charles D. Brady, George W. Reily, Fred- erick Brooke, Edward H. Brewer and Col- by M. Chester. Then followed the brides- maids in white taffeta silk, with old fash- ioned full skirts and garlands of pink roses across the front. The waists were cut with low neck and had small tulle sleeves. Each maid wore a little veil that was fas- tened with tall Prince of Wales feathers. They carried houquets of pink cosmos. "The maid of honor followed. Her gown was made like those of the bridesmaids, but it was all in white and she carried white COSMOS. Then came the bride, leaning on the arm of her father, former Governor Hast- ings. She was gowned in pure white satin with long train. Her slashed waist was heavily trimmed with Venetian point lace. She had full puff sleeves, over which hung her long bridal veil and she wore but one piece of jewelry, a magnificent diamond sunburst, a gift from the groom. Her houquet was of lilies of the wal- ley. Ab the altar steps the groom, Ross An- derson Hickok, was waiting with the best man, his brother, Orville Hickok and as they met they were grouped, forming a most charming picture, when Rev. Dr. Laurie, who twenty-three years ago had married the bride’s father and mother in the same place, stepped forward to perform, the ceremony. The ring ceremony was used, to which Dr. Laurie added a short nuptial talk. After the wedding, the bridal party went direct to the Hastings home on Allegheny street, where at 7:30 the reception began. The house, the finest in town, needed no decorations, but there, as well as at the church, an artist had been at work and the effect was enchanting. . Governor and Mrs. Hastings received in the red room, assisted by the bride and groom, and Mrs. Hickok, mother of the groom, Mis. Hastings’ gown was of white bro- caded silk with pink flowers, cut low low at the neck. She wore a lace fichu and, white pompon hair ornament. The groom’s mother wore black velvet, with lace trimming. = Refreshments were served in the dining room, but the bridal party were seated at a table especially reserved for them in the pink drawing room. The reception was followed at 10 o’clock by a dance given by the young men of the town in honor of the visitors,in the armory of Company B, a short distance from the Hastings’ home. At 10:30 Mr. and Mrs. Hickok left by a special train. Their honeymoon will be spent in New York, Washington and Old Point Comfort. The bride's; traveling gown was a tailor-made dark blue cloth, and with this she wore a tiny toque of the same color. Mr. and Mrs. Hickok will be at home after Nov. 10th, at their residence, 221 West State street, Harrisburg. The bride’s favors to the maids were blue enamel pins, while the groom’sfavors to his ushers were gold link sleeve buttons engraved with appropriate initials. The groom was a noted football man at Yale. He was gradnated from that in- stitution in ’97, served during the Spanish- war, first as private in Battery A., of Philadelphia, and later as first lieutenant of Company M, of Gettysburg. ' He is now connected with the W. ©. Hickok Manufac- turing Company, of ‘Harrisburg, the em- ployees of which sent him a huge loving cup as a wedding gift. The bride is the eldest Anvghter of for- mer Governor and Mrs. D. H. Hastings and bas always heen regarded as one of the popular members of the younger social set in the town. She is an exceptionally sen- sible girl and the simple, charming manner that has won her the well wishes of hosts of friends was not in the slightest changed by her schooling at Ogontz or the ultra life in the executive mansion of Pennsylvania. The gifts number more than five hun- dred and are simply lavish. They were displayed on the second and third landings of the grand stair caseand embrace many costly wares in silver, cut glass and china, as well as rare pieces of bric a brac in gold, bronze, onyx and marble. Among the guests present from a distance were the following : Philadelphia, Mrs. 8. Cameron Burnside, Mr. and Mrs. Rob- ert Fell, the Misses = Henkles, Miss Mary Garrett, Col. John H. Sanderson, Col. and Mrs. Jas. H. Lambert, Mr. W, P. Metre and Col. and Mrs. John I. TE WIE, Mrs. N. McKee Graham, Mr. and W. O. Hickok, 4th, and J. M. Curtin. Sanishirg Mrs. W. O.

On Monday even- ing there was a dinner at the Country club at Hecla and Tuesday evening the dinner for the wedding party, which was one of the most elaborate of the series of events before and after the wedding. ail —— Wilson Gephart is 1n the infirmary at Princeton, with an injured knee.

After the usual explosion of exultant college boy spirit on the campus a party of students decided to make a raid on the Col- lege creamery, where large stores of cream, milk and ice cream are always on hand. The place had been raided several times before, so that the College authorities had placed watchmen there. On Saturday night Davy Slagle and Robert Johnston- baugh were on guard. They were soon overpowered, however, and locked up themselves. Some other employees of the College heard the racket and went to the rescue of the property, then a general fight ensued in which Luckie was struck over the forehead and left temple. He fell to the ground unconscious, but was carried to his room later. He could not be revived and laid in a semi-conseions condition. Dr. Robinson, who had the case, called Dr. Hayes, of that place, and Dr. Christ, of State College, in consultation and an operation was decided necessary. It was performed on Sunday afternoon. The skull was trephined in four places and a very large clot of blood removed from the brain. Immediately after recovering from the ether Luckie became conscious and has been so ever since, though his condition is still regarded as almost hopeless. The physicians have heen unable to stop the flow of blood from the aenied artery except by packing. Luckie’s father, who is a prominent Chester dentist, with his mother and a trained nurse arrived at the College Mon- day morning. No one has been able to find out who struck the blow that caused the injury. ees ACADEMY—-DICKINSON.—Several hun- dred people went down to the fair grounds, Saturday afternoon, to see the foot ball game between the Dickinson Seminary team from Williamsport and the Bellefonte Academy boys. and older than the locals they were unable to score and only once during the entire game was the Academy goal line in great danger. on a cross pass by which Austin Eadon was able to make a run of forty yards. Ran- dolph Hoy, at left end for the Academy, played a very snappy game ; getting down the field well on punts and tackling often and sure. The score was 0 to 0.

Commissioners Meyer. and Heckman, clerk Boyd Musser and attorney J. C.

Messrs Meyer and Musser were both elected mem- bers of the executive committee. ll lee ~==—Railroad agent F. W. Bradford at Centre Hall has figured out that during the past year 100 cars of cattle have been shipped from that point alone. Most of them have been milk cows that have gone. to the suburbs of Philadelphia, where they are sold under the hammer at prices rang- ing from $40 to $100. Among the buyers and shippers of this grade of cattle are’ former treasurer D. C. Keller and his son Rollie. They are traveling about over the coutity “continually, ‘buying up the best cows they can get hold of. They prefer’ those with calves at their sides and’ ship the calves right in the car with the cows, selling them together. rere ——Ladies new tailor made sits all’ colors at Lyon Co's. ~~ ———— mrss ——" RAIN AT LaAsT.—The rain that began with a thunder storm at 11 o’clock Sunday night was the first of any consequence that has fallen in the vicinity of Bellefonte since July 25th. Other sections of the county have had light showers since that time, but there hadn’t been one steady, soaking rain. As a consequence much of the corn and fruit was effected in its maturing, pasture was burned out to such an extent that but- ter has been selling for 25cts. a pound, when it should have been 12cts. or 15ets. and some farmers have been feeding their cattle daily from the barn, as if it were mid-winter. Ninety per cent of the wells in the county have gone dry, springs that have never been known to fail before are dry as punk and reports from all quarters have been to the effect that many families have been compelled to carry water for miles. An idea of how dry the ground has been can be had from this fact. - Though it rain- ed in torrents most of Sunday night and was still raining at 10’ o'clock Monday morning Spring creek ‘had not become the slightest riled. Sach a down-pour in the spring would have caused a great flood on the creek, but at this time the ground was so parched as to drink it all: up; leaving: scarcely a drop to run off into the drains and streams. ad : GIVE THEM A RousiNG WELCOME.— Early in the sixties, when Washington was threatened with rebel invasion, it was the stout hearted and patriotic. boys of ‘the 110th Penna. who did. the most of the work: in repelling the advance of the Confeder-: ates.

Miller, in the Arcade, on Tuesday evening, the following members having been present: Dr. Geo. W. Atherton James Harris, Chas. M. McCurdy, Jno C. Miller, Robt. F. Hunter and Geo. R. Meek. The only business of importance trans- acted was the adoption of a resolution to ask for a joint meeting with the executive committee of the Monument Commission, so as to ascertain exactly how much funds will be available for the monument. Dr. Atherton,chairman of the committee then gave a very delightful talk on his inter- views with French and Barnard, the sculp- tors, regarding the monument. Next to Mc- Monnies they are the most eminent sculp- tors in the country and both became inter- ested in the monument for Centre county. Especially the latter, who is a native of Bellefonte. While French’s “Minute Man’’ at Concord has brought him great fame Barnard, though a younger man, has risen rapidly in art, and it is most gratifying to learn that his interest in this monument at his boyhood’s home is so enthusiastic that he will visit Bellefonte. He is at present under contract for some work for the Buffalo exposition and just as soon as itis com- pleted,and our executive committee decides how much it will have to spend, Mr. Bar- nard will come here to look over the field and his designs will be among those that will be presented. ipa ——D.
