A Cleveland and Thurman | by the enthusiastic Democracy of the vicinity, Prof. W, A, Krise was elected | president and W. J. Hanna secretary, with a considerable number of members, which we are glad to note are increasing | at every meeting. The regular time for meeting is Friday evening of each week, and that evening an interesting pro. gram was prepared. A discussion on | Tariff Reform by Messrs, Warren Krise Tyrone, saying that 4 woman answering the des ription, had been seen there, but be couid get nothing definite. There is a story out, among the many ont, that Royer alleges to bave come across his wife at Wiers, near Warriors Mark, and claimed her as his wife bat she denied it, and refused to go with him, and that the woman acted like an insane person.

Later.—~Mrs. Royer, the wife and mo- ther, who left her home near this place some two months ago, and has been so anxionsly looked for by her deserted hosband and family, has at last been heard from.

SPRING MILLS CREAMERY. Dy invitation the creamery west of the depot was visited on Saturday morning. This enterprise was established about two years ago by Messrs, Wm. Alligon, Wm, Pealer, G, R. Spigelmyer, nad oth- ers, has been in coastant operation since and is a frying investment. About a year ago Mr. Eisenhart, of Bhamokin, ! moved here and purchased the establish- | ment; since then he has taken in as part- | ners Messrs, T. M. Gramley, of Rebers- burg, and C. A. Krape, of Spring Mills. The building recently was salatged, more machinery added, and is consider ed the most complete establishment of its kind in this part of the state. The cream is gathered in from nine different routes; by an i tabe with soles every bit of cream bought is tested daily to find the per cent. of butter it will yield, and no fraud can be practiced ap- on them, The cream is run into three large vats, where il passes through = process, and then to two large churns, Then the butter is salted down in tubs, worked overand put in pouhd packages for shipping the following day. This is justice, To give you an idea tablishment, Mr, Gramley informed us that their total churning for last month, July, was 21,000 unde, almost 1,000 pounds per day. We are under obliga tions to Mr, Gramley, the manager, for information and kindness shown. He is a Bimon pure Republican, and is the | same young gentleman who made a speech last fall as the eupposed newly elected Register —~the only one of his flock who failed to connect. In his own words: “I would rather be in the cream- ery business than Register of Centre county,” he seems to be satisfied with his lot. NEW GRAIN HOUBE. station pear the track.
