THE CENTRE COUNTY FAIR. —Is is uow,
but very little over two months until the
time for the big Centre county fair, which:
this year will be held October 3rd to 6th.
Last week the WATCHMAN publiched an
outline of a grand ‘competitive township
exhibit which the management have insti-
tated as a special feature for this year, but
it must be borne in mind that while this is
a very important adjunct it will be but one
of the many features which those in charge
are planning so have.
The usual large exhibit of stock, machin-
ery and farm products as well as household
and fanoy articles promises to be excelled
this year. And in order to do this every
reader of the WATCHMAN can take a part.
It you have a good horse or a cow, a sheep
or a hog, keep him in prime condition and
enter him in the live stock exhibit. If you
bave the best grain in the county save some
of it to show at the Centre county fair. If
you think your fruit a little the best of any
other farmers, if your potasoes are bigger
or if you have the biggest pumpkin, bring
them in and get a prize. There is yet am-
ple time in which to greatly improve the
size and quality of most farm produets, by
devoting a little extra time to more culti-
vation, pruning, ete., and the resul$ in the
end will justify the additional labor.
Now is the proper time to go to work
along this line if you wish to have the best
exhibit.
In the amusement line the fair manage-
ment promise more varied attractions this
year than ever before while there will be
the’ usual spirited and exciting races by
some of the fastest horses in the State. So
take oor word for it as to what the fair will
be and see if you san’ do your part toward
making it one of the greatest.
Two EXAMPLES.—We hope that it will
not prove-distasteful to the two gentlemen
to’ whom we intend to refer. In fact we
can see no reason why it should, for their
case is one that should properly he held up
$0 emulation.
Every publisher of a newspaper has had
experience with the people who take their
paper for a few years or, at leas, until they
get a few years in arrears and then refuse
to lift it any longer. Of course the law
provides a remedy for such cases but the
amount involved is usually so small that it
doesn’t warrant recourse to snch a method
of making these scalawags pay. Scalawags,
we call them, because they are certainly
nothing better. The action of any person
who takes a newspaper for any length of
time and declines to pay for it is plain dis-
honesty. It is equivalent to stealing that
much money from the pocket of the pub-
lisher. ’Twere better, far, for anyone who
feels that they cannot afford to pay for a
paper to settle up with the publisher and
have it discontinued. That is the honest,
manly thing to do.
The WATCHMAN has lost thousands of
dollars through scalawags, a fact which
makes it all the pleasanter to refer to the
cases of the venerable Frederick Barclay and
William Crawford. Both of them are poor
yet ‘they have that which 1iches conld not
buy: An honest character.
Both were greatly in arrears with their
subscription to the WATCHMAN and both
of them voluntarily cflered to make pays
ments just as they could to liquidate the
bill. Pegging away, often with a dollar at |.
a time, they bave kept at it until they are
hoth nearing the honor roll.
Now either one of these men could have
refused to lift his paper from the poss-
office and had it returned with that con-
tible mark ‘‘Refused’’ had they so de-
ired, but they are not made of that kind

SKUNKS GALORE.—I$ may sound strange
to the average reader to learn that Belle-
fonte, especially the eastern portion of the
town, is overron with skunks. Not the
two-legged kind that unfortunately infest
every community, bus the genuine thorough
bred pole-cat. Last week a resident of
Bellefonte got in a little mix-up with one
of these odoriferous animals while on Mon-
day night of this week, Howard Stover,
miller for Gamble, Gheen & Co., who lives
on east Lamb street, shot a skank which
was in the act of making a raid on his hen
house. For some time past residents on
east Lamb street have been missing young
chickens and were at a loss to know what
was stealing and killing them. Monday
night Mr. Stover heard a noise among his
chickens and securing his gun went out just
in time to see Mr. Cas in close proximity.
The animal was promptly shot and now the
residents of that locality are wondering if
they will have to keep on watch all the
time or if that was the only maravder.
Residents on east High street, east How-
ard and east Linn street are nightly pester-
ed with the‘‘varmints,”’ which pus forth an
exceedingly bold front, doubtless becanse
of their very strong offensive character.
They not only prowl, around in search of
spring chickens in the dead of night bust be-
gin their perambulations early in the even-
ing. In fact so bold have they become and
so defiant of the orthodox code of law as
‘well as scornful of the borough officers that
