ANOTHER CRASH,
A Philipsburg Bauk Goes Under, Caused by
Heavy Runs,
Following closely upon the crash of
the Houtzdale and Clearfield banks,
came the closing of the doors of one of
the banks in Philipsburg, which went
under on Monday morning, The reason
given for closing by Cashier O. P. Sones
was the heavy run of last week, and the
quiet checkingout of the principal de~
positors. Jonathan Boynton, fathersins
000 of the stock but the fact of his con~
nection with the institution created a
feeling of unrest and suspicion, whieb
The people of Philipsburg do not doubt
The general weakness of the market and
the inability to have first~class local
paper discounted in the East forced the
closing. The bank is a private one, and
was known as the Philipsburg banking
company. A rumor has reached here
that two Eastern banks that held Dill’s
paper have closed, but the rumor is not
well enough founded to give the names
of the institutions. At Houtzdale the
excitement has quieted down. The
people have gone back to their work and
will await developments, The bank there
will pay over fifty cents on the dollar,
outside of the First National indebted-
ness,
An Enormous Output.
That the good housewives of the sec-
tion are taking advantage of the bounte
etc., and are laying
up great quantities of canned goods, is
tin cans, jars, etc. One firm in Centre
Hall informs us that they alone have
gold over ten tons of sugar in the past
season, and there are several other firms
in Centre Hall whose sales have aggre
gated fully as great. Tin cans were
scarce last week avd could not be pur
chased in Centre Hall, Spring Mills
Bellefonte, or any place in the valley.
All dealers were out of same and the
supply was not equal to the demand.
Manufacturers of glass jars and earthen~
ware are reaping a harvest this year, but
there will likely be =a loll in the busi.
ness next year on scoount of the people
being overstocked with the goods. Sev
eral car loads of crocks have been sold
by our merchants and they are barely
able to keep up the stock to supply the
demand.

A Bnake Story.
James Platt, of Juniata township,
while out hunting squirrels a few days
ago, discovered one of the frisky gentry
in the top of a large oak. While mov
ing around to get a shot at it he was
more than startled to see a huge black
snake drop at his feet from the leafy
canopy above, a distance of twenty-five
or thirty feet. The snake had evident-
ly climbed the tree for a meal, and had
secured it in the shape of a small gray
squirrel which it had two thirds swale
lowed when it fell to the ground. Mr.
Platt killed the reptile which measured
over five feet six inches in length.—

Judge Bucher Moved to Tears.
Judge Bucher, of Lewisburg, was mows
ed to tears last Saturday, while upon
the bench, when Alfred Hayes, at the
close of the September term of the Uns
‘on conaoty court, read an address signed
by both the Democratic and Republican
members of the bar. The address pays
high tribute to the ability, impartiality,
fairness and faithfalness of Judge Bach-
er's administration in the courts of Un-~
ion, Bnyder and Mifflin counties daring
the past twenty years and hopes that the
people of the twentieth judicial district
will continue him on the bench for
another term,

Horse Stolen,
Thieves entered the stable of George
Youngman, of Williamsport, last Sunday
night, and stole therefrom three bay
horses. A set of single and double har-
ness, and a spring wagon were also taken,
one of the animals being hitched to the
wagon and the other two being led. The
horses and thieves were capture at Mid-
dleburg, Snyder county, on Monday
afternoon,
Robbery at Milton,
While the people of Milton were in at
tendance at the fair last Thurday, three
houses in the town were entered and
robbed. About $100 in money was
secured besides a lot of jewerly and
silver ware, the whole thing amounting
to about $700, No clus was found upon
which the officers could work.

Jacob Kern, of Madisonburg, raised
from a piece of ground, 10x36 feet six

What Ladies Can De.
When the ladies make up their minde
to accomplish some good, they invarias
bly succeed. This we have often ob=
served, and have a recent proof of it,
within a short distance of the RerorTER
office. Over two years ago, the Presbys
terinn ladies of the Centre Hall congre-
gation—and their numbers are few, with
very few male members—took in hand
the erection of a much needed church in
this place. These noble women perses
vered, gave of their own money liberals
mde, engaged in sociables, and the like,
and working thus in continued harmony,
Sabbath, two weeks ago had the satisfac.
tion of seeing their labors crowned with
neatest churchee in this part of the
state, and free of debt,
All praise is due these noble women,
upon whom mainly the success of the
enterprise depanded.
Another instance we give in the ef-
forts of a number nf the women of the
Lutheran church, who have given thems
selves to the good work of raising means
for extinguishiog their church debt.
By quiet work they have raised, in
about eighteen months, thro the Bazaar,
upwards of $500, In addition the ladies
opened the Lutheran lunch rooms du-
ring the recent picnic week, from which
were realized $3063 above expenses.
Thus, thro the efforts mainly of these
good ladies, about one half of the debt
resting upon their church is about to be
cancelled, All honor to the women who
gided in this work. If these noble wo-
men continue in their work, a complete
wiping out of the debt must follow,
If you desire a good work to succeed,
just get the ladies to take it in hand,

An Interesting Experience.
Ope evening last week, while Bamuel
Meyers was coming down the mountain,
he stepped on what he thought was a
round stick in the middle of the road,
but was quite startled from the manner
in which it lopped against his leg, and
discovered he had disturbed a snake,
which endeavored to strike him with its
fangs. Sam made a mighty spring, but
the snake still showed fight and follow.
ed him, and he backed around in a ring
with his snakeship clesely following, it
being rather dark he could not readily
find a stone to do battie, and concluded
that by taking to his heels he would
some day be able to again enter into an
engagement with the snake, which he
did, and made some mighty quick tracks
the mountain. He said he
and was about four feet in leugth.
John Henry Cut ln Twe.
On Saturday morning a most harrow
ing accident occurred om the railroad
near Philipsburg, in which John Henry,
a miner, met an untimely death. He
had been farnishing music for a party,
out in the Third ward of the town, and
retarning about 4.50, he reached a place
down on the track. Being under the ine
fluence of liquor he did not notice the
approach of the early passenger train,
duos at Philipsburg at 4.50, and before
the train could be stopped he was run
over and his body completely severed at
the abdomen, Deceased was 30 years
old and leaves a wife and six children.
" Appies Very Chasp.
Apples can be purchased very cheaply
throughout this section, and the prices
for the same are quite in cootrast with
that of one year ago, when apples could
hardly be purchased for four or five dol-
lars a barrel. Fine winter apples are a
drug on the market at ten cents a bushel
and thousands of bushels will go to
waste, The cider mills are having a
boom and enough cider hes been made
in the valley to overflow Sinking Creek.
Cider is offered as low as four cents a
gallon with several bushels of apples
thrown in,

Proclaim Liberty.
This country is becoming very patriotic
allat once. Some one is sending out re.
questa to all the ministers of the world
that they should preach a sermon on
Sunday next, October the 11th on the
discovery of America by Columbus. The
following text bas been assigned them:
“Proclaim liberty throughout all the
land,” This will necessitate a large num-
ber of ministers studying the United
States History, as some of them have
nearly forgotten old Columbus,
Fell Out of a Window,
Mrs. Margaret Little, aged 85 years

that she had in sume manner fallen out

The Houtzdule Bank Suspends,
Following closely upon the suspension
of the Clearfield National bank came
the announcement of the closing of the
doors of the Houtzdale bank, of which
Mr. Dill, president of the defanct Clears
field bank, also figured at its bead, It
was a private concern. The bank had
many Huns and Slave, who had deposits
in the concern and when the clos ng of
its doors became publio, excitement was
at its height and a general suspeasion of
business followed. The foreign deposit~
ors were frantic in their endeavors to
dent,
At a meeting of the directors of the
Houtzdale bank, held Monday, Messrs,
Jones Westfield, William A. Pollock aud
A.D. Btewart were appointed a commit
tee to represent the depositors in all fur-
ther steps taken to protect the deposit-
ors, and were instructed to obtain Messrs
Murray & Gordon, of Clearfield, in addi«
tion to local counsel. The committee
was instructed to have a warrant issued
charging W. H, Dill with the em bezzle-
ment of upwards of $100,000 of the banks
fands. The court has appointed Messrs,
John Beyer, of Medero, and John W.
Dickey, receivers, and in pursuance with
instructions of depositors’ commiitee,
receivers swore oot the wairant
John B. McGarth, cashier, will be the
principal witness, and is anxions to give
the depositors all the information in his
power, The individual prosecutions
against Dill have been withdrawn since
the action of the committee. A dispatch
to Lawyer Patterson, attorney for the
receivers, from Jonas Westfield, at Clears
field, states that the bank examiner has
ordered the arrest of Dill, Unofficially
itis learned that a brief examination
made by the receivers in the benk, dis
covered the following assets, Cash
about $200,000; securities, $50,000; real
estate, $10,000, certificate of deposit in
First National bank of Clearfield, $15
000. The deposits amounted to $200,000
The receivers, it is stated, also found in
one of the books receipts in the hand
writing of Mr. Dill for $105,000 which he
had taken from the bank, The depesit-
ors are determined to push the case as
far as the law will permit,
The bank examiner, Miller, found
$10,000 of false entry and straightway
had Dill arrested, and a justice placed
the bail figure at $20,000 but it was not
raised. Then later another false entry
of $30,000 was found.
At Clearfield the situation has changed
very much for the better, and it is now
believed the failure of the First Nation-
al bavk will be traced to the carrying of
too great an amount of buisness paper,
and that no evidence of fraud will be
shown agsiost President Dill. The Unis
ted Bates authorities have fixed Friday
next for a hearing of the case, and if the
bail asked is not excessive, should the
evidence warrant the holding of Dill at
all, the bail will bse promptly fortheom~
ing.
The family of Dill have the sympathy
of the people. While Dill appears cool
in his present situation it is known that
he is laboring under a heavy strain men-
tally. He states that he does not want
bail, and if he has done anything wrong
he asks to be taken to jail. The mid.
night gang of lynchers reported consist.
ed of three Hungarians, one of whom
caught Dill by the arm and said. “Me
want my money,” He was promplly
hustled away by an officer.
Another warrant was issued for Dill
charging bim with embezzling $85,000
from the Houtzdale bank. Dill being
apable to secure bail was taken to jail,
Mrs, Dill went with her husband.
At Houtzdale the excitement has given
way to a feeling of greater confidence,
and a belief that depositors will be paid
in full, that it may not be for some time.
The liabilities of the Houtzdale bank
are now placed at $185,000 with asvets,
not sounting any credit in the Clearfield
bank, amounting to $105,000. It is stat
ed on good authority, that Mr. Dill in-
stead of taking the eighty or eighty-five
thousand dollars to Clearfield and give
ing no oredit therefor, debited the
amount 80 taken on the books of the
First National and due the Houtzdale
bank,
Fire at Snew Shoe,
Taesday's Daily, News saysis telephone
message from Snow Shoe this morning
contained the information that the
Pennsylvania railroad depot ai that
place was burned to the ground, with all
its contents, at half past six o'clock this
morning. Fortunately there was not
over one hundred dollars worth of freight
in the depot and this, with the stoves,
desks, eto, constituted all the building
contained, No one seems to know just
how the fire originated. When the sta-
tion agent went from his home to the
depot, about half past six ¢'clock. he saw
smoke issuing from the building and,
upon hie arrival, he was horrified to find
the building one mass of flames inside,
As there is no fire protection in Snow
