SE .—0————————— HIRAM YOUNG.—At the ripe old age of 86 years and 1 day Hiram Young died at his home at Coleville on Sunday afternoon. His death was not the result of any partic- ular ailment but rather the breaking down of the system after years of service. He was born in Columbia county and when only 14 years old settled on Big _ Marsh Creek. Ten years later he moved on- to the farm which he occupied continuously then for sixty-two years and ever since it has been known as the old Young farm. He was twice married. The first union to Alice Amy, of Columbia county, was blessed with six children, three of whom are living, Mrs. Annie Laubshier, of Lock Haven; I. M. Young, of Bellefonte, and Harvey S., of Cartin Twp. Their mother died Jan. 20th, 1864. His second wife, Rebecca Cartwright, sur- vives him with five of their eight children: Elijah, of Roopsburg ; Elmer, of North Bend ; Ida, of Boggs Twp. ; Harry H., of Buffalo Run, and William, of Coleville. Thirty-three grand children and six great grand children also survive. Deceased was a consistent Methodist and a life long Democrat. Interment was made in the Union cemetery Tuesday afternoon. Jo: I LAWRENCE LL. CooNEY.—The death of Lawrence L.

Soon thereaf- ter he located in Bellefonte, where he has resided ever since, maintaining an honora- ble and useful position in this community. His brother Luke Cooney, of Salem, N. Y. is living as are also the following chil- dren : Martin and Mrs. Mary Fox, of Belle- fonte; Mrs. Wm.

B. Klump and Paul Sheffer drove out to Marsh Creek to fish for trout. They tied their horse to a tree in the woods before starting to the stream and after fishing a little while they noticed the forest fires, that had been rag- ing for several days, being swept towards ‘them by the high wind. Starting on a run for their horse they got there just in time to save the animal from being burned. The fire was then only about twenty feet distant and the horse was tied so securely that it could not possibly have broken loose. : : ——At the April term of court the view- ers reported on anew voting precinct for Potter township, which will likely result in a polling place at Tusseyville. It was confirmed ni si by the court and will hold over until the August term before being confirmed absolutely. The new precinct takes up a section in the south western por- tion of the township practically hounded as follows: By a line west of Samuel Slack, east of George Spangler, and W. F. Rockey, from which point it runs north on the east side of Dr. Lee’s farm, crossing the North precinct line alittle west of that point, sthence west on the south side of the John Cummings and Bitner farms to the Harris township line. Thus old Potter is cut into four voting districts, namely, Centre Hall, Potter North, Potter South, and Potter West. Hublersburg. Indications are for a good wheat crop. Fruit trees are out in full bloom in our section. Pugilism is beginning to be engaging some of our people. Wm. Zimmerman, of Mingoville, is very busy at present hanging wall paper in town. Miss Getha Derr, of Lock Haven, visited our town as a guest at the wedding of Miss Jose Wilson. H. H. Noll has the new extension to his house under roof and it makes quite a good appearance, so far. J. H. Carner, one of our model farmers, left on the 9:10 a m. train for Bellefonte on some business on Tuesday. The county commissioners were in town last week holding the appeal for Marion and Walker townships, but very few of the tax- payers were in attendance. The Commercial telephone linemen are busily engaged repairing their line, straight- ening the poles and stretching the wires, which is a great improvement.

Wolf has resigned his position with Wm. Wolf, the miller, and has accepted a position in DuBois, where he will remove his family shortly.
