FIFTY YEARS AGO
IN CENTRE COUNTY
Items taken from the Watchman, issue
December 5, 1879. :
Philadelphia, Bucks and Chester
were the three original counties of
Pennsylvania, established at the
first settlement of the Province in
1862. Centre is the 27th county
and was erected from Mifflin,
Huntingdon, Northumberland and
Lycoming on February 13, 1800.
Centre county is five years younger |
than Bellefonte.
At a meeting of the directors of the
Bald Eagle Valley and P. R. R. Co, |
held in the Girard House, Philadel-
phia, on the 25th ult.,, it was voted
to consolidate the debts of the com-
pany in one general
$400,000 to run for 30 years. The
road is capitalized at $550,000 and
is operated under lease by the P.R.
R., which pays rental of 409 of the
gross receipts and keeps up repairs.
The meeting had considerable locsl
interest because it was voted to
build a new station building at
Bellefonte and also put in a “Y”
here.
Councilman Shortlidge, at the
meeting of town council on Monday
night, gave the following interestin:
statistics on the water question:
“The city of Paris uses an average
of 21, gallons of water per person,
per day; Constantinople 15 gallons,
Philadelphia 30 gallons, New York 40
gallons, Boston, 43 gallons and Belle-
fonte 80 gallons.” Of course Belle-
fonters are the clearest and most
temperate people in the world and
just naturally, have tc have more
water than others.
Katie, the two year old daughter
of J. D. Shugert Esq., of Linn street,
had one of her fingers badly hurt
last week by having it caught in the
sewing machine while in operation.
The prettiest young lady in town
has been given the opportunity to
manufacture for Mr. Newton Bailey
the gushing local editor of the Cen-
tre Democrat, a pair of slippers, a
dressing gown or a purse in which
to carry his silver. This week’s is-
sue of that paper carries the invita-
tion. We would suggest that a
rocking horse would be a far more
appropriate gift for Newtie.
On Wednesday of last week Jacob
Shuey, of Houserville, butchered a
pig that tipped the beam at 664 lbs.
The monster was 8 ft 1 inch long.
The Presbyterians held a spelling
bee at the Wigwam, on Wednesday
evening last, to which they charged
an admission of 10 cents, the pro-
ceeds to be applied to paying for
the new Sunday school library.
Mr. William Miles has just opened
in Bush's Arcade, on High street, a
roller skating rink.
. Eggs are 20 cents a dozen and
wheat is $1.40. Eggs are certainly
high.
About 10 o'clock last Saturday
night an engine of the P. R. R.’s
extra freight train was backing up
from Milesburg to this place to turn,
when in the vicinity of the old Snow
Shoe station at Milesburg the en-
gineer thought he noticed something
on the track but couldn't get stop-
ped in time to avoid running over it.
The object was found to be the body
of Wm. P. Wilson who had been a
teamster at Valentine's iron works.
It was horribly mutilated and death
must have been instantaneous. It is
supposed that he sat down on the
tracks to rest and then fell asleep
only to waken up in eternity.
' ——Governor Fisher has joined
Grundy and Reed in the opinion that
Senators should be apportioned ac-
cording to population. That makes
three genuine Hamiltonians in the
country, which is enough.
——One is almost forced to sym-
pathize with Vare after the cruel
way he has been tossed out of the
Senatorial equation by the hard-
boiled managers of the Republican
machine,
——Even Congress has made a
‘new record. The session just ended
is the first special session called for
a specific purpose that failed to fulfill
‘the purpose.

——Maybe there ought to be a
constitutional amendment authoriz-
ing the President to select the Sena-
tors. Usurpation is always danger-
ous.
——After all it doesn’t matter
much who makes the selection if the
choice is wise. Fletcher is better
than Grundy or Fisher.
——Meantime the “fine Roman
hand” of Uncle Andy Mellon is dis-
cernible in every movement affecting
Pennsylvania polities.
——The regular session of Con-
gress opened placidly enough but
the indications point to a stormy
session. ;

A GOLDEN WEDDING
CELEBRATION AT HOWARD
Thanksgiving day was a momen-
tous event in the lives of Mr. and
Mrs. Harry T. McDowell, of Howard,
as it marked the fiftieth anniversary
of their marriage. ‘As both Mr. Mc-
Dowz1l’s parents and the parents of
Mrs. McDowell lived to celebrate
their golden weddings it was only
natural that their children should
wish to do likewise and the event
was celebrated with a big turkey
dinner at their pleasant and com-
fortable home in Howard.
The silver service which adorned
the table was Mrs. McDowell's wed-
ding gift of fifty years ago. The ta-
ble settings were in gold and white
the decorations being yellow chrys-
anthemums and an electric parrot
flower centrepiece filled with yellow
rose buds, the latter a gift of Mr.
Carson Q. Dietz, of Lock Haven. The
only jewelry worn by Mrs. McDowell
was the wedding present of her
young husband at the time of their
mariage fifty years ago. As me-
mentos of last Thursday's event Mr.
and Mrs. McDowell received a num-
ber of gold pieces.
When the young people were mar-
ried fifty years ago. Mr. McDowell
was engaged in farming. The first
two years of their married life were
spent on a farm at Mackeyville.
Then they lived two years on the
Robert Bennison farm, in Marion
township, and by that time had sav-
ed enough money to justify buying
a farm of their own, in Marion town-
ship, which they occupied twenty-
two years. Leaving the farm they
moved to Howard where they have
lived twenty-four years. Mr. and
Mrs McDowell were the parents of
three children, two of whom died
quite young so that their only son
is Willard K. McDowell, cashier of
the First National bank, of Howard.
Mr. McDowell has three sisters living
while Mrs. McDowell has five living
sisters.
Both Mr. and Mrs McDowell are
among the most esteemed residents
of Howard. During their long mar-
ried life they have had their full
share of happiness and sorrow sun-
shine and shadow but now, in the
evening of their existence, may they
revel in the joy of a life well lived,
and be spared to celebrate many
more anniversaries.
Guests at the big dinner,
; Thursday, were as follows:
Mrs. Clara J. Hicks and Mrs. Amy
J. Cornwell, of Williamsport, sisters
of Mrs. McDowell; Prof. and Mrs.
George D. Robb, of Altoona; Mr.
and Mrs. Eugene Robb, of Bedford,

Mrs. McDowell, and Eugene Robb a
son of Prof. Robb;) Dr. P. W. Mec-

FIFTY YEARS AGO.
Thanksgiving day was rendered
memorable in Howard by the mar-
riage of Mr. Harry F. McDowell and
Miss M. Belle Kline. Mr. McDowell
is the son of Perry McDowell Esq.
a well-to-do farmer of Nittany
Valley near Hamburg, formerly of
Howard. The bride is the accom-
plished daughter of Samuel F. Kline
Esq., of Howard, and a niece of Ex-
Sheriff Kline, of Bellefonte.
The appointed hour found a num-
erous company of guests assembled
from Howard, Nittany Valley, Belle-
-fonte, Tyrone and Beech Creek. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. J.
Benson Akers, pastor of the Metho-
dist church at Howard. After a
sumptuous repast and enjoyable so-
cial occasion the newly married
couple were escorted by their friends
to the depot where they took the
afternoon train for a wedding trip
west. They were accompanied as far
as Tyrone by their attendants: Mr.
Harry Henderson and Miss Alice
Cooke.

The parties being well and favor-
ably known by a large number of
young people in Centre and Clinton
counties their many friends wish
them “bon voyage” in the journey of
life together. The officiating minister
was remembered with a generous fee
which was gratefully appreciated.
Taken all in all this occasion was
especially enjoyable and memorable.
A glorious day was an auspicious
omen for a happy future to the new-
ly married couple.
