his home in Clearfield last Wednesday,
of injuries sustained in a recent fall on
the ice. He was a native of Centre coun-
ty and was past eighty years of age. In
early life he followed lumbering and

organize the County National bank, of
Clearfield. His wife, two sons and one
daughter survive.
EXPRESS OFFICES CONSOLIDATED.— The
American express office in the freight
depot at the Central Railroad of Pennsyl-
vania has been abandoned and the busi-
ness done by that company will hereafter
be handled by the Adams Express com-
pany from its office in the Bush house
block. The consolidation of the two
offices took place on Wednesday when all
the books and supplies of the American
express company were transferred to the
Adams company office. Since the parcel
post has become the chief carrier for all
small packages the express business has
naturally decreased, the American was
not+doing enough business in Bellefonte
to justify the expense it was at, hence
the change. The change will dispense
with the present messenger on the train,
whose place will be taken by Perry
Alters, and also do away with the horse
and delivery wagon, as all collections and
deliveries will be made by the Adams
company wagon.

Bic HOME TALENT BENEFIT PLAY.—
| The cast that will present “Under the
| Stars and Stripes” at Garman’s opera
| house Friday and Saturday and Saturday
matinee, includes Capt. Wm. Brown,
Louis Daggett, Laird Curtin, Homer
Decker, Beulah Woods, Marie Doll, Mr.
and Mrs. Hoskyn and the compliment of
Company L, in the military features. Al-
so a big musical number by thirty of the
High school girls. The money from this
| entertainment will be used to furnish the
reconstructed armory, upon which $10.,
000 will be spent.
——There was no question about the
groundhog seeing his shadow on Monday
but so far his old saw has not proven
very reliable. Of course he has six weeks
in which to make good, and most any
kind of a hog ought to turn out some
cold weather right in the middle of the
winter season. But if the last Friday in
the month rules the succeeding month
there will be no extreme cold during
February. At present most of the big
snow that fell early in' January has dis-
appeared and sledding is now good only
on out-of-the-way mountain roads.
——Faithful and efficient party service
in the past may be a good reason for re-
fusing an appointment to office at present.
| But it hardly justifies the bestowal of
party favors upon political derelicts and
recreants which appears to have become
the tashion in this State.

Monday last.
Mrs. Tibben Zubler has been very seriously ill
for the last few days. :
B. A. Donachy, of Lewisburg, is here on a visit
to his mother, Mrs. Maggie Donachy.
Miss Helen Weaver, of Madisonburg, spent
Sunday with her sister at the home of C. A.
Krape.
Our jolly shoemaker, John Huss, is fully two
feet taller since Thursday last, all owing to the
advent of a son.
The high winds of Saturday and Sunday last
did considerable damage to fences, grape arbors,
and one or two chicken houses.
Clear, solid ice from 15 to 18 inches thick was
cut from Sinking creek last week. Quitea num-
ber of our people were busy for a day or two fill-
ing their ice houses with the frigid stock.
How about the ground hog fable? His hogship
saw his shadow, as he couldn’t well helpit. Ac-
cording to the predictions of old women, that
simply means six weeks more of winter. What
bosh! As Puck says, “What fools we mortals
be.”
A car load of apples was shipped from this sta-
tion last week. The apples came from Brush
valley, the farmers receiving 75 cents per bushel
of 50 lbs. Apparently apples were plentiful in
Brush valley, but here in Pennsvalley the crop
was almost a failure.
The icv condition of the roads and walks on
Friday last was a holy terror. Everything was
coated with wet ice and rubbers were worse than
useless. Pedestrians were forced to creep along
the roads and walks, as if walking on needles, in
fact, it was necessary to do so, to keep on your
feet and avoid a tumble, as it was, occasionally
an unfortunate one could be seen on hands and
knees endeavoring to regain a foothold. Not-
withstanding, no serious mishap has been re-
ported.
Quite a large dancing party was held in Grange
hall on Wednesday evening of last week, which
proved a very delightful occasion to many of our
young folks, and some of the older ones too. The
managers had provided a dual orchestra, Claire
Gentzel, Blain Bitner and C. C. Bartges for quad-
rilles, and Mrs. Ben Hackenburg and Carl Has"
senplug for waltzing, or what the verdant call
round dancing. The music was decidedly excel-
lent.

P. J. Leitzell, of Belvidere, Ill., formerly of
this place, and who has been here for a month or
two visiting relatives and friends in the valley, a
guest of his brother-in-law, William Pealer, left
for his home on Monday of last week. On his
homeward trip he stopped off for a day or two at
Bellefonte, Pittsburgh and several points in Ohio.
Mr. Leitzell left our town over thirty-five vears
ago and embarked in the mercantile business, in
which he has been eminently successful, amass-
ing quite a fortune. He was certainly a welcome
visitor to our town.
William V. Wright.
[From the Clearfield Republican. ]
The subject of this sketch was born in
December, 1833, at Plumb’s Forge, Cen-
tre county, Penna., being the oldest son
of the late A. K. Wright, who at the time
was superintendent of the Forge. Short-
ly after his birth his father moved to
Grahamton, Clearfield county, where he
engaged in the lumber and mercantile
business with Hon. James B. Graham,
and where he lived for a number of years
or until he removed with his family to
Clearfield.
William V. Wright in the early fifties
went to Camden, N. J., where he was
employed for a number of years in the
old Camden bank. This position he re-
signed and returned to Clearfield, help-
ing to organize the County National bank
and becoming its first cashier.
Resigning that position he entered into
partnership with his father and
brother John W. Wright, and for a num-
ber of years carried on at Clearfield a
mercantile and lumbering business. Re-
tiring from business he became clerk for
the County Commissioners.
In the sixties he was married to Mary
C. Foley, a daughter of the late Judge
William C. Foley, who with two sons,
Roland C. Wright and Albert M. Wright,
. and one daughter Anna, at home, sur-
vive him, also one sister, Mrs. E. A.
Bigler.
Mr. Wright, was an accountant and
pensman, the work he did on the records
in the court house will long stand as a
monument of what it means to be a good
pensman, especially to the present day
gentlemen who look on writing as a past
art.
No one was better posted on early
history of Clearfield county than Mr.
Wright and no one could entertain peo-
ple with history of the early struggles of
the men who carried on business when
Clearfield was one large timber camp.
He has seen the immense forest cut down
and taken away and the county changed

THE THEOSOPHICAL PATH.—There is always an
abundanae of interesting and valuable matter in
the Theosophical Path, and helpful hints for all
who recognize something of the serious side of
life and are searching for a solution of its many
problems. In the current (February) issue the
| religious and mystical aspects of Theosophy re-
| ceive special attention, as instanced by the fol-
lowing titles: ‘‘The State of the Christian
Dead,” by H. T. Edge, M. A.; “Many Religions;”
“One Religion;” “The Esoteric Philosophy of
Unselfishness;” “What is Occultism?” “Scientific
Jottings;” “Germain at the French Court;”
“The Creative Quality;” ‘The Testimony of
Megalithic Monuments.” Other articles that
call for mention are: ‘‘Artistic Anachronisms;”
“Woman’s Character in the Light of Reincarna-
tion;” and “A study of Contrast.” ‘“The Flower
of the Mountains,” a poem by Kenneth Morris,
the Welsh poet, is a gem of music and rhythm.
This issue is beautifully illustrated with views
from many parts of the world, which are a splen-
did index to the international character of this
magazine. }
The February St. Nicholas contains a re-pro-
duction of Arthur Rackham’s painting that Jan-
uary St. Nicholas has just been purchased by the
French government for the Luxembourg Gal-
lery. Inthe series “With Men Who Do Things,”
the boys make a trip to Panama and witness the
shattering of Gamboa dike with forty tons of dy-
namite. Among the serials are ‘“The House-
keeping Adventures of the Junior Blairs,” which
teach outdoor and indoor boys and girls the
art of cooking; “The Runaway,” and “The
Lucky Stone.” There are regular departments
of *“Books and Reading;” ‘For Very Little Folk;”
“Nature and Science for Young Folks,” the Let
ter Box, the Riddle Box, the St. Nicholas Stamp
Directory, and the St. Nicholas League.
On the whole the February issue of this “best
loved of all magazines” shows the publishers’
desire to live up to their long-established princi-
ple—"‘the best in literature and art is none too
good for American children.”

by lot of John Caldwell on the west, lot of W. F.
Reynolds on the south, on the east by lands of E.

fronting on said Lamb street seventy-four feet
from the lot of John Caldwell to the lot of E. C.

hundred and twenty feet tolot of W. F. Rey-
nolds,” having erected thereon the buildings con-
taining the machinery, &c., of the Central Sta-
tion of said Company;together with all and singu-
lar the buildings, improvements and appurte-
nances; that the said mortgage is a certain mort-
gage given and executed by the Edison Electric
Illuminating Company of Bellefonte, to J. D.

corded in the office for the recording of deeds,
&c., in and for the said county of Centre, in
Mortgage Book ‘“‘V,” page 514, &c., being a mort-
gage given to secure an issue of thirty coupon
nds of Five Hundred Dollars ($500) each, aggre:
ting a total indebtedness of Fifteen Thousand
llars ($15,000,) payable ten years after the date
of said mortgage, with interest thereon at the
rate of five per cent. per annum, payable semi-
annually, and being a mortgage upon the above
mentioned mortgaged premises; that the princi-
pal and interest on the bonds secured by said
mortgage were fully Paid in the year 1902, but,
owing to the death of J. D. Shugert, the Trustee
named in said mortgage, on October 26th, 1900,
the record of said mofigage has not been satis-
fied; that on the petition of the said petitioner the
said Court, on December 6, 1913, by decree of the
said Court bearing that date, appointed Charles
F. Cook, Succeeding Trustee in the place and
stead of J. D. Shugert, deceased, as Succeeding

ly in the said J. D. Shugert under and by virtue

creed that the Sheriff of the said County of Cen-
tre serve notice Stating the facts set forth in the
tition, on Charles F. Cook, the Succeeding

Monday of February, A. D., 1914, requiring the
said Succeeding Trustee and any and all parties
interested to appear at said succeeding term and
answer the said petition and show cause, if any,
why satisfaction should not be entered on the
record of the said mortgage by the Recorder of
Deeds for the said County of Centre, or why the
seid mortgage should not otherwise be satisfied
