Reported by Our Staff ol Correspondents. Central. This section has the satisfaction of having first-class sleighing one of the old fashioned winters. A little below zero every morning. Though not a great deal, still we have some sickness in this section. Some have colds, and there are a few cases of chicken-pox along with the more serious ailments of James Shultz and Jacob Lorah, whom the Doctor was called on to visit the same morn ing. Mr. Shultz had an attack of neuralgia ; Mr. Lorah, of heart trouble. Mr. Lorah was in a very critical con dition, but recovered and is now some better. Well, the sleighing could not be any better, and everyone that has some thing to" go with is getting right into a cutter or something, and going some where. Our local candidates are looking around for voters. Some of them don't travel much. They say the ho tels are so close that it will cost them more than the office is worth. A lot of the Central people took a trip to Benton on Thursday even ing and visited Mrs. E. P. Albertson. All had a good time and a good sleigh ride through the kindness of O. W. Larish and C. E. Yorks, Esq. About thirty-five gave Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Lamon a surprise on Tuesday last, by coming when they were both out of house Mrs. Lamon on an er rand, Mr. Lamon at the store. We will include all the names and will say that you could not see a better crowd of good natured folks in this or any other country. All brought some thing to eat, and had a very nice din ner. Those present were : Rev. Mrs. Fisk, Mr. Peter Shultz, wife and two sons 5 Chas. Messenger, wife and son; Mrs. O. W. Larish and daughters 5 Mrs. Bruce Sutliff, Mrs. Aaron Van sickle, Mrs. Blanche Hay, Mrs. Jen net Brown, Miss Crockett, the school teacher, and Mrs. Crockett from Lu zerne county; Mrs. J. B. Hess, son Hirdock and daughters : Miss Effie Shoemaker, our fashionable dress maker ; Mrs. Rachael Hess, who lives near the bridge as you come into Central, and one who enjoys herself wherever she goes ; Mrs. Lorah called but could not stay. All of this good time and pleasant occasion wound up by the young folks giving the daugh ters, Kate and Nellie, a surprise in the evening, having lots of taffy, pop-corn &c East Benton. A sad and fatal accident occurred in Jackson township about 11. 15 A. M. last Friday that cast a gloom over the entire community. Joel Albertson, son and Lew. McHenry were engaged in cutting timber not far from Green creek ; and after chopping a tree partially off and before felling Mr. Albertson noticed that the tree by falling would crush some young timber which he desired to save. Leaving the tree, they proceeded to fell the young timber, and while thus encased the tree began falling. The alarm was given ana the men ran but Mr. Joel Albertson was overtaken and crushed to the earth. The news shocked the community and the terrible blow must have fallen imon the familv with crushing effect. A widow, three sons and four daugh ters survive to mourn their loss. He was buried last Sunday afternoon in tne aenton Cemetery and Kev. Mailman-preached the funeral sermon. On the night previous to the accident he remarked to the family that if ever anything happened him that Rev. Maltman should preach his funeral. From this and other reports it would seem that he had a premonition of his death. It will also be borne in mind that about a year ago or more Mrs. Albert son had a narrow escape from death when her horse ran away which took fright from a traction engine at Joseph Myres' along Fishingcreek. Mrs. Doll Drescher and W. B, Shultz of this place were married on last Thursday evening. Their many friends congratulate them oa this joy. ous occasion.
