Mr. Haag bad not been in good health for months past and his attending physicians realized that death was near, consequently he was removed from bis home on Penn street to the Bellefonte hospital, last Friday morning, bat he died at 10:30 o’clock that sawe morning. The direct cause of his death was an abscess on the stomach. Deceased was born in Wittenberg, Mehr- stetten, Germany, June 14th, 1829, thus making his age 77 years, 5 montbs and 16 days. His father was George Haag and under him Gottlieb learned the carpenter’s trade. In 1854 he emigrated to America and settled in Schuylkill county where he lived for twelve years. From there he moved successively 10 Cresson, Pottaville and Williamsport. Along about the year 1870 he located at Pleasant Gap and built the distillery as that place, which he oper- ated until nineteen yearsago when he mov- ed Bellefonte. He was the owner of the hotel Haag in this place a# well as consid- erable other real estate. Prior to leaving his fatherland for his new home in America he was married to Catharine Trezy, ol Wittenberg, November 13th, 1854,and most Bellefonters remember when the ancient couple celebrated their golden wedding in November, 1904, by giv- ing a big dinner to their many friends at the hotel Haag. The couple bad no chil- dren of their own bat they adopted two boys in infancy and reared them as their own, John C. Mulfioger, of Pleasant Gap, and Harry Haag, of Bellefonte. Mrs. Haag died in June, 1905, but Mr. Haag is ear- vived by two brothers and three sisters, as follows : George, in Switzerland; Mrs. Magdalen Ruse, in Germany; Mrs. John Scheitemberger, of Warrensburg, Mo. ; Philip, of Williamsport, and Mrs. John Reiter, in Germany. The funeral was held at two o'clock on Mooday afternoon from his late home on Penn street, interment being made iu the Union cemetery. il I ll RicHARD M. DowNING.—Though a resi- dert of Philadelphia, the subject of this sketoh was so well known in Bellefonte that his death, which occurred on Satur- day of apoplexy, was the source of the deepest regret among his many friends hereabouts. Mr. Downing was born near Down ington, on February 22nd, 1825. He was a son of Israel Downing and Lydia Asb- bridge Thomas, both members of old Qua- ker families. Mr. Downing was educated in the schools of Chester county, and when 20 years old went to Philadelphia and pro- cared a position with Morris, Jones & Co., and two years later was admitted to the firm. He continued with that concern until 1861 when he became deeply interested in the lumber and coal business in Centre county, and was made president of the Bellefonte and Show Shoe railroad, re- maining at ite head until it was absorbed by the Pennsylvania railroad. He was also largely interested at one time in coal operations in the Snow Shoe region and was at the head of the company who pur- chased the Love farm in Halfmoon town- ship and opened np ore operations there which, however, were abandoned after being worked a year or so because they were not profitable. He was a director of the Pottstown Iron company, the Pottstown Gas company, the Barlivgton Gas company, the Genesee Salt company and the Logan Iron com- pany. At thetime of his death he wasa director of the Bank of North America, the Westmoreland Coal company aud the Delaware Insurance company. Mr. Downing was a life member of the Union League and was one of that organi- zation’s oldest living members. He also was a men:ber of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the Horticultural Society and the Fraoklin Institute. In religion he was a member of the Society of Friends and in this church was koown far and wide. M1. Downing married in 1847 Miss Jane T. Lea, and his widow and one daughter, Mrs. Johu G. Ballock, of Germantown, survive him. The oldest daughter, Mrs. ‘J. Francke Rumsey, died a few years age yy il MILLER.—Quite a sudden death in Fer- guson township was that, last Friday after. noon, of Alexander Miller, of Shingletown, who died after'a very brief illuess with heart disease. Deceased was fifty one years old and was born near the place of his death. He was a man well known in tbat locality and held in high esteem by all. He was a mem- ber of the Lutheran church and for a vum- ber of years served as a deacon. He was a bachelor and is survived by the following brothers and sisters : John, David and Geo., of Pine Grove Mills; Mrs. Jacob Herman, of Lemont; Phoebe and Mary, at home. Rev. Stoneoypher conducted the funeral services which were held in the Luthern church at Boalsburg Sunday morning. In- terment was made in the cemetery at that place. ; i I i MoPHERSON.—Mrs. Edward McPherson, of Gettysburg, mother of Mrs. David Dale, “aud the property tally | of this place, died last Friday night after a illness.

The count hegan December firas. ————— With THE HUNTERS—Even now, though the season has been closed one week, it is impossible to give an accurate count of the nnmber of deer killed in Centre county during the open season, but an estimate, based on what knowledge the writer has been able to obtain, vould place the num- ber at from seventy-five to one hundred. And of this total, the most of them were captured the first two days of the season. So far as can be learned the Chambers— Uzzle party, of Snow Shoe, were the most successful, they bringing in thirteen deer. A party of Lock Haven and Williamsport hunters got ten deer in the neighborhood of Eddy Lick. Other parties got anywhere from six down to one deér. Of bear there have been about fifteen killed in the coun- ty so far, and they are still reported quite plentiful. When it comes to smaller game it is hard to make an estimate. But there were at least two hundred wild turkeys killed in the county, with houndreds of pheasants, rabbits, equirrels, etc., so thas the season can be regarded as a most sue- cessfal one. But even with all this every party that went out was not successful. The Pavthers, of this place, spent the entire fifteen days in the Scootac region and came home with- out a thing. In fact the only game they got daring the whole two weeks were six pheasants. They saw only three deer and they were all out of shooting distance. They did have scent of a conple bears that endeavored to pay them a fraternal visit in their camp, but several of the party became 80 excited over the near approach of bruin and made so much noise that the animals simply walked away without being seen. Of course there is bardly any doubt but that other hunting parties bad just as pe- ouliar experiences only they have thus far been too modest to relate the same. ree RECEPTION TO PASTOR. — Rev. Ralph H. Bergstresser and bride, after a ten days wedding trip, arrived at their home in Pine Grove Mills yesterday and the pastor’s loyal friends and supporters gave them a royal welcome. The members of the Wom - an’s Missionary society were in charge aud they started in by overhauling the par- sonage and putting everything in apple: pie order. Then to cap the climax they pre- pared a most appetizing supper for the reverend and his wife. Of course the peo- ple of the town were out in full force to re- ceive them, and also quite natarally, the uew Mrs. Bergstresser was the centre of at- traction. She is a most lovable young wom- an, highly accomplished in every way and one who is well fitted for the life partner of such a popular preacher as her husband. In fact, so pleasantly did the time pass away that it was a late hour when every- body bad said good night and gone home, Tae CHICKENS CAME BACK. — Last week’s WATCHMAN contained an eight line local announcing that *‘if the woman who dropped the hairpin near Rev. Crittenden’s chicken coop and incidentally carried away four chickens, would return the latter she could get her hairpin.” Like the ‘“‘cat that came back'’ the chickens bave also come back. Rev. Crittenden was away from home from Saturday afternoon until Monday morning and on going to his chicken coop Monday noon he was agree- ably surprised to find therein the four miss ingchiokens. As to the hairpin, Rev. Crit- tenden having no use for it himself, turned it over to the proper authorities who will restore it to the rightful owner on applica- tion in person. .

In answer to the summons, however, they appeared prompt- ly on time and when all were grouped in the president’s office Col. J. P. Coburn arose and in a happy little speech, which it must be confessed was spoken in tones of regret, told of the intention of William P.
