DROPPED DEAD. Mr, George Grossman Suddenly Expires in the Road, Mr. George Grossman, a well-known and highly respected old gertleman, living near Tusseyville, expired very suddenly on Friday afternoon, 19th inst, Mr. Grossman had not been in the best of health for several weeks and was su f- fering from a slight indisposition, which did not incapacitate him from doing light labor and was not of a serious character, On Friday he was feeling | well enough, as he thought, to assist in laboring for the supervisor upon the township road near Fleisher’s school house, and after dinner went to work. He was only at work a short time when he was seized with an attack and was | seen to fall forward on his face in the | road. Men working near by, ran to his | assistance and carried him to a house, | but he was beyond all assistance, the vi- tel spark having fled, expiring before he | was picked up and help of no avail. Mr. Grossman was an aged gentleman | and was over seventy-five years of age, | and was in very comfortable circumstan- | ces. He was a farmer by occupation | and had worked long and bard, and was | highly esteemed in his neighborhood. | He was a member of Lutheran church at Tusseyvilie and his pastor, | Rev. W. E. Fischer, condncted the obs sequies, on Tuesday forenoon, interment | being made in the Tusseyville cemetery. | The funeral was very laigely attended. Mr, Grossman was the father of six | children, three girls and three boys, all living and grown up, His aged wife also survives him. He had been twice mars ried; his first wife having preceded him | to the beyond some years ago. ite — The Fourth at Bellefonte. The fourth of July celebration boom | at Bellefonte is ‘way up at present and the various comm ttees appointed are making strenuous efforts to make the | celebration a complele success the By all reports they will have a big time and a monstrous parade, a la Barnum. Many | fire companies from all over the state have expressed their intention of being there, to participate in the parade. The | industrial parade will be very about forty firms of that having floats Troop, of Tyrone, will along with other military and civic ganizations, A big time is promised, to eclipse anything of the kind ever had io this portion of the state, As very | will be going on over here among Fied- | lars “Duteb,” nearly all express their | intention of celebrating their Fourth at Bellefonte, and as usual, when anything of any importance is to *n of our neighbor, they can expect a big turn out and a crowd, The | “Solid South” will do ber share towards | making it a success. large a8 town intend Sheri dan | part in line. The also take Ors iittie to occur 1a the iarge — Laying The Main D. F. Lanse, with a gang of man, began the laying of the new main for the Cen” tre Hall water company on Tuesday | afternoon. The work was expacted to | be done last week, bat on account of continued rains during that time were compelled to postpone the laying until Tuesday, when it cleared up. They expect by this evening, Thursday, to have the job completed and eranecti ons all made, again sappiving the porti on of the town from the Rerorrer office to the depot with water, which was cut off | from the supply since Toesday noon The covering of the ditches will be done | as soon as possible, and they will not be | allowed to stand open any longer than absolutely necessary. he they | - A License Required It is not generally known that there is a law in this state prohibiling fireworks. A law which specially applied to Phila deiphia was passed in 1721, and thirty years later the law was made a general one. Under its provisions a license must be issued by the governor for any pyrotechnic display. Otherwise there are penalties and forfeitures, one half for | for the informer and the remainder for the poor of the district. The law is al- most obgolete, bat the governor is called upon about every three years to grant such a license. s—————— Plenty of Fruit. From the present iodications there will be an unusual amoant of fruit gaths | ered throngh this section. There will | be an abundance of apples, peaches, plums, ete, the trees being almost crush- ed te the earth with their load of fruit, By all appearances it will be the largest crop grown for years, and is well timed too, as most of the larders are near empty caused by the failures the past two or three years. i I MSS RSS. 5 Pretty Evenly Divided, Some things are pretty evenly divided in this world. For instance, an ex- change says: “Two-thirds of the Church members of this country are women,” the infidel sneeringly remarks. Is there anythiog about that to be ashamed of?

He was 82 years of age. He was one of the largest ironmasters in Centre county in the days of charcoal furnaces. Mr Thompson was one of Centre county’s oldest and most influential citis sens. He was born March 25th, 1810, on the farm now owned by his grand- father now in College township, His was of BcotcheIrish descent. His educa~ tion was only such as a farmer's boy at that early day could obtain, On the 1th of January, 1838, he was married to Mary Irvin, danghter of John Irvin, of Harris township, by whom he bad eight children, most of whom are now dead.

Your Sleeping Powder Now, Two young men of Snyder county nanderdsrtook to lay for the ghost of a haunted house near Lindale station. At midnight their covering was suddenly snatched from them, the room was filled with a mellow light and the figure of a young woman, with arms extended and a gash in her neck, appeared. All the outside doors of the house had been pre- vious by fastened and were found to be still fastened at daylight. EE _—— it u————— Took Third Honors, Robert B, Wolf and Edward J.
