THE ACADEMY RECEPTION.—A lafge
and very delightful reception was that
given at the Bellefonte Academy, Tuesday
evening, June 30th, by Mr. and Mis.
James R. Hughes, and Miss Overton.
The annual academy reception at com-
mencement time has become one. of the
brilliant functions of the year, but ib is
pre-eminently for the students and their
friends and is naturally participated in
largely by the young people and those
most closely interested in them. On Tues-
day evening it was alumui of years stand-
and friends, perhaps not so young in years
as the June graduate, but even younger in
enthusiasm and zest to enjoy. Education
knows no distinctions of age or beauty
and is the surest basis for congeniality and
real enjoyment. Added to this there was
everything in the environment to insure
pleasure—music by Smiths ‘orchestra,
grounds beautiful with Japanese lanteros,
flowers ga lore, in the ladies hair, in their
hands, in" vases, on tables; even the moon. ;
80 shy the ‘last month, smiled on the
occasion.»
“fn the receiving line were Mr. James P.
Hughes, Mr. and Mrs. James R. Hughes,
“Miss Overton, Mrs. Charles Hughes, of
‘Baltimore, Md., her sister, Miss Graham,
Miss Ottali Hughes. About three hundred
guests were present. Dr. and Mrs. Dimm,
| of Mifflinburg, being among those from out
of town. Mrs. Dimm, nee Miss Snodgrass
is well known here as a visitor at the home
of Mr. F. Potts Green.
It seems very fithing that this charming
reception should close the most successful
year in the history of the Academy, for the
‘bosts and hostesses who made Tuesday
evening’s success are the same personalities
that have made the Academy one of the
| best college preparatory schools in the
State.

INTO A MAN TraAP.—For several years
the coal holes in front of the Arcade have
been a source of danger to pedestrians along
the south side of High street. The council
has repeatedly notified the owner to repair
them, but the notices have either been
treated with utter disdain or acted upon
with some temporary makeshift.
On Sunday afternoon the traps worked
with such effect as to badly injure one
man aud frighten another one almost sick
—if nothing worse. ‘‘The Great Bunker-
er’ the female inpersonator who had just
arrived in town, was walking along the
street, all unconscious of the tilting grate,
when he stepped on it and went down to
his thigh. He was so badly injured that
he lapsed into unconsciousness and was
taken in charge by Dr. Hayes. When ex-
amined later at the Hagg hotel it was
found tbat both his ankles were badly
spraived and his wrist burt. The show-
man will be laid up about three weeks as a
result of his injury. 3

ENCE OF MIND.—A little courage and pres-
ence of mind probably averted a destructive
fire on east High street, on Monday even-
ing about 5 o’clock.
Mabel Garbrick, a domestic in the fami-
ly of district attorney N. B. Spangler, had
lighted an oil stove preparatory to getting
supper and then stepped out to the front of
the house for a few moments. When she
returned she found that the stove had ex-
ploded and that the Kitchen was ablaze.
Instead of falling over in a faint or wring-
ing her hands and shrieking the girl went to

soon had the flames under control. Though

——The strike situation about Philips-
burg has developed to the stage of frenzy
where the wives and children of the strik-
ing brick makers have taken a part. On
Saturday a Mrs. Holt, of South Philips-
burg, whose husband did not strike, was
carrying him his dinner. She was escorted
along the way by a howling, jeering mob
of women and children who pounded pans
and hooted at her. The

took her family and left the vicinity the
very same afternoon.

Mary Blanchard and the Ladies Auxiliary
was a success in everyway. Though sim-
ple in decorations the armory looked more
beautiful than it has ever appeared before,
the music was superb and the dancing was
continued until 2:30. Quite to the snr-
prise of everyone the net receipts were
$114.00. It seemed impossible that so
much could be cleared at the low price of
50 cts charged for tickets.

——The plans for the new Y. M. C. A.
in Bellefonte are on exhibition and are
proving quite a revelation to those who had
no idea of what the board of directors had
in view when they made the phenomenal
canvass of a few months ago for $12,000.
Only a few more thousand need be raised
before the entire property can be built
according to the specifications, but at
present the work of improvement will be
be confined to the building of the gymnba-
sium and such changes in the old building
only as are absolutely necessary. The As-
sociation property is being moved to the
new home, the Irvin house, on High
street.

——Mr. ‘‘Brack’’ Powell got into the
toils again on Sunday. In company with
several other black fellows he was playing
cards down at ‘‘the tarn’’ along the moun-
tain. They say that things were not
comin’ Brack’s way as fast as he thought
they should so he fileched twenty-dollars
out of ‘‘Brownie’s’’ clothes. ‘‘Brownie’’
is another bad descendant of Ham, who
was supposed to besleeping while the game
was in progress, but it appears that he bad
one lamp turned on ‘‘Braek.’’ ‘‘Brack’s’’
patron Saint, Mr. Kelley, refused to give
him any aid so he went to jail until Mon-
day when a hearing was given him.
“Brownia’’ told so many different stories
that ‘‘Brack’’ was discharged. Inasmuch
as ‘‘Brack’’ expects to be married on July
4th the liberation was most tirely.
BE
SECURED A NICE PosiTiON.—The friends
of Miss Elizabeth Morrison will be pleased
to learn that she has heen re-employed by
the Underwriters Association of the middle
district of Pennsylvania and given a posi-
tion of much more pecuniary value than the
one she formerly held in this place.
It will be remembered that the office she
had charge of here several months ago was
closed, leaving her out of a position, but
the Association has asked her to accept a
place in its Williamsport office and she left
for her new work on Wednesday.
It is certain that faithfulness to duty
will actuate her every motive in the new
position to which she has been called.

MovVED TO THE JAIL.—On Tuesday Jas.
Lewis, the wounded burglar who has been
in the Bellefonte hospital since he was shot
by treasurer Foster during the capture in
the Seven mountains on the 20th ult, was
moved to the jail.
He bad recovered so far as to make his
removal a matter of small hazard and was
taken from the hospital to the jail in a cab.
He has been none the worse of the change
and it is thonght will soon be permanently
well.

W. ‘FEED R. JACKSON. —W. Fred KR.
Jackson died in the hospital at Warren on
Wednesday. He had heen failing in
health for more than a year and little hope
of his' recovery was entertained after iti was
discovered “that tubercalosie had’ devel-
oped.
Ered was “the secoud PL of. the, late
George W. Jackson, of this place. He was
born ‘bere in September, 1871, making ‘his
age nearly. 33" years. His early life was
spent abont the ‘home and when quite
young he entered the bank with’ his father;
continuing in’ the institution that still
bears their family name until his shatter-
ed health enforced his retirement. After
the death of his father and the elosing of
their home on Linn street Fred went to the
Bush hounse to live, and it was while there
that his health became such that it was
necessary to send him to the hospital, where
he could receive more careful attention. :
nost a recluse in his life be
was | devoted to: ‘hooks and nature. He was
a young man of sterling qualities, honest
in every trait, straightforward and method-
ical in the extreme. Fred Jackson bad
many friends, because behind his seeming
indifference to friendship there was a gen-
uinely frank, ‘sincere soul that really
craved the companionship of his fellows.
To those who knew him well the an-
noancemeny of his death will have a 'pecu-
liarly saddening effect, even though ‘his
passing was from a life that held little
of brightness or hope for him.
- Surviving him are his mother, his sister
Mrs. George T. Brew, and his brothers
Harry and Maurice.
. The body will be ‘brought here to-day
and probably be laid away in the family
lot in the Union cemetery this afternnoon.

dred guests assembled to congratulate the
young couple, both of whom are very pop-
ular in Bellefonte.
After the reception Mr. and Mrs. Gear-
hart departed on an evening train for a trip
to Philadelphia, Atlantic City and New
York.
The bride is the second daughter of Mrs.
Mary Fox and is an accomplished viva-
cious young woman. Her husband is a
native of Clearfield, but for several years
has had charge of the Adams express office
in this place and since coming to Bellefonte
to live has made many friends who will
wish him much joy in his married life.
For her wedding Mrs. Gearhart wore white
silk and chiffon over white silk. Her
maid wore white silk trimmed with real
lace and a large white hat.

THE HORSES WILL Go.—The Bellefonte
Driving Association has arranged for an

have already been entered for the events

yack is reported as being in prime condi-

Five or six Lock Haven horses will be
here and Jas. Chambers will start some of
the string he has in training down at the
