—Anyway the really eminent men of
the country are proud of their allegiance
to the Democratic party and proud of the
honor of carrying its banners. Not only
in the national, but in the State elec-
tions the Democratic party has revealed
itself for generations as having invaria-
bly presented men of unusual calibre for
the offices to be filled and men who have
gone down to defeat not feeling as mar-
tyrs do, but proud of the principles for
which they stood and proud of the op-
portunity to publicly espouse them. In
the nomination of President WOODROW
WILSON, of Princeton University, for the
Governorship of New Jersey, the Demo-
crats of that State have added to the rep-
utation of the party at large. President
WILSON is not a politician, but he is a
Democrat; a Democrat from principle
and he is also a man of world wide repu-
tation in educational circles. Whether
he will be elected or not he will remain the
same and though there may be those who
will think the Democratic party is honor-
ed by having him accept a nomination at
its hands President WILSON would not
have accepted had he thought so. As we
have said before he is a Democrat from
principle, nothing else, and being such he
regards the honor as having been con-
ferred upon him. The percentage of the
voters of today who are really anything
from principle is so small that the names
of the great parties under which they
parade are really misnomers.

——It will be one year early next
month since the projectors of the Centre
County Trolley company secured a fran-
chise entitling them to a right-of-way
through the streets of Bellefonte, to
build a trolley road to connect Bellefonte
with Stat2 College and Milesburg. The
franchise stipulated that active opera-
tions were to be begun within twelve
months and that failing in this the fran.
chise would be forfeited. While at the
time the Bellefonte people who were en-
gineering the scheme talked very san.
guine of it being pushed through of late
nothing has been heard of it and the only
conclusion to arrive at is that the bottom
has dropped out and the franchise will be
allowed to go by default.

WITH THE BOROUGH DADS.—There were
eight members present at the regular
meeting of borough council on Monday
evening and aside from passing two ordi-
nances the principal business transacted
was providing for the renewal of notes
and aegotiating a new one.
The various committees had nothing
of any importance to report to council
and there were nc verbal or written com-
munications except a letter from Arthur
Brown, of New York, in which he asked
for the written guarantee promised before
he pays for the concrete pavement laid
by the borough in front of the Brown
property on Bishop street. The borough
solicitor was instructed to secure the
guarantee from the contractor and for-
ward same.
The ordinance providing for the extra
width asphalt macadam paving and con-
crete curb and gutters on Allegheny
street; and the one amending an ordi
nance passed several months ago and
providing that the brick paving on Alle-
gheny street from Plke alley to Bishop
street shall be fifty feet wide instead of
forty-six, were read for the second time
and passed finally. The agreement of
the property owners along the latter piece
of street to pay their proportionate share
of the expense was presented, signed by
every owner, and was ordered entered of
record.
Under the head of new business the
Finance committee announced thata note
for $5,000 in favor of Daniel Hall would
be due September 26th; one for $1,200 in

zoology at The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege, and Miss Cora Crilly, 2a well known
school teacher of Altoona, were married
at the home of the bride's parents in the
Mountain city on Thursday of last week.
The ceremony was performed by Rev. D.
F. Drawbaugh, of the Fourth Lutheran
church. Both the contracting parties are
prominent socially and the wedding was
quite a pretentious one, though the num-
ber of guests was confined to their large
circle of friends.
Following the ceremony Mr. and Mrs.
Noll left on a wedding trip which will ex
tend through New York and the New
England States to be followed with a
brief sojourn at the bridegroom’f former
home in Perry county. Later they will
go to Ithaca, N. Y., where Mr. Noll will
take another year's advanced work in
zoology at Cornell University.

— Something very unusual in a night
blooming cereus transpired at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. William Weber, in How-
ard, the past week. Fourteen years ago
Mrs. Weber got a plant and has nurtured
and watched it very closely ever since in
anticipation of coaxing forth its exceeding
ly fragrant flower. Her efforts were re-
warded last Friday night when the plant
put forth its first installment of flowers
and as if to repay Mrs. Weber for her ten-
der care the plant bloomed again on Sat-
urday night and then on Sunday night.
Ordinarily a night blooming cereus puts
forth blossoms only one night and some-
third, so that Mrs. Weber was very fortu-
nate.
CENTRE COUNTIANS ALSO VICTIMS.

‘and since then several more suits have
been entered against him while every day

his affairs more hopelessly involved than
ever. His peculations were not confined
to strangers but his nearest friends and

CHURCH CORNER STONE LAID.—The
corner stone of the new St. Paul's Metho-
dist Episcopal church at State College
was laid on Sunday afternoon, Septem-
ber 18th, with appropriate ceremonies.
The congregation, which numbered be-
tween five and six hundred people, assem-
bled on the floor of the new building,
which had been provided with temporary
seats. The pastor of the church, Rev. J.
McK. Reiley, presided over the services.
The entire congregation united in sing-
ing the opening hymn, “Holy, Holy, Ho-
ly, Lord God Almighty!" which was fol-
lowed with prayer by Rev. Samuel Mar-
tin, of the Presbyterian church. Rev. L
C. Sassaman, of the Lutheran church,
read the scripture lesson.
The college quartette, composed of
Messrs. Roop, Smith, Miller and Stod-
dart, sang a beautiful sacred selection
after which addresses were made by
Prof. F. L. Pattee; Dr. B. C. Conner, su-
! perintendent of the Altoona district, and
Dr. Edwin Erle Sparks, after which an of-
fering to the amount of $545 was lifted.
At the conclusion of the above services
the congregation followed the official
members and visiting clergymen to the
platform outside the building proper
where the corner stone was formally laid
by Dr. W. S. Glenn, president of the
board of trustees. Dr. Thomas S. Wilcox,
of the Bellefonte church, pronounced the
benediction. A number of Bellefonte
Methodists were present to witness and
| participate in the services.
In the corner stone was placed a roll
, of the members of the church, name of
i pastor, board of trustees, building com-
| mittee, a list of those who have so far
' contributed toward the building of the
| church and among various other things a
| copy of the DEMOCRATIC WATCHMAN.
“DAVE HoLcoMB.”—Oncein a while the
| public likes to be serious long enough to
| have their memories reverted to their
: childhood days down on the farm or some
| reminiscences recalied where they have
| spent a pleasant vacation out in the open
| country. William Lawrence, who is to
| appear at Garman's, on September 30th,
in his latest effort, “Dave Holcomb,” says
the world is growing better. He backs
his claim with the assertion that since he
has advertised his play as a moral tem-
| perance drama of real life, more people
| have paid admissions to see him than
| ever before. “Dave Holcomb” is not a
| bar-room play, but is a wonderfully con-
! structed story of a man's moral life
| against that of his reckless brether and
| the lesson taught will not cause any great
| remorse but will make you feel better
| after having seen it, and convince the
| most skeptical that there is lots of good
| in this old world after all.

Boy SteALS CIGARS. — On Tuesday
evening Bert Parks, son of James Parks,
was arrested on the charge of breaking
into the cigar factory of John McGinley
and carrying away three hundred cigars.
The factory was first entered on the night
of September 7th when one hundred
cigars were stolen. On the night of the
11th it was again broken into and two
hundred cigars taken. Suspicion pointed
to young Parks because he was continual-
ly smoking and on several trips up Spring
creek sold cigars at two for a cent. After
his arrest he confessed and told where the
cigars were hidden, under a stable in the
rear of F. E. Naginey's store. Policeman
Dukeman made a search and found the
six boxes, though only two hundred cigars
were recovered, Parks having smoked and
sold the other hundred. When arrested
he was sent to jail but was bailed out by
Col. Taylor on Wednesday.

AT THE COUNTRY CLUB.—A meeting of
the Country club will be held at the new
club house on Saturday afternoon and
evening to make arrangements for a
formal opening of the house and transact
other business of special interest to every
member of the club.
The new club house has been prac-
tically completed and is ready for oc-
cupancy throughout. The last of the
window shades were put up on Wednes-
day. On Tuesday evening the electric
lighting system was turned on for the first
time since the dynamo was reset—to run
foward instead of backward—and the dif-
ference over what it was when first in-
stalled in the old house is quite marked,
being almost one hundred per cent. more

we want to add that because it will be a
rummage sale you must not think that
everything there will be rubbage, because
it will not. There will be fruit and vege-
tables of all kinds, fit to grace any table,
that can be purchased as cheaply as any-
where else. There will be lots of house-
