Fropitious Weather and a Large Crowd C. HH, Murray, of Princeton College Delivers s Masterly Address. Tribute to the memory of departed heroes of war was never more loyally paid by their surviving comrades in arms and the public in general than the exercises of memorial Day at Cen- tre Hall on Tuesday evening. The weather was of the most favorable kind, with the sun shining brightly from a clear sky overhead, The town began to fill early in the afternoon with people from the valley, and by six o'clock the number congregated was larger than at any previous Memorial exercises, About nine o'clock in the morning a detachment from Co, B,, N. Gi. P., of Bellefonte, arrived in town and pro- ceeded to the cemetery where they decorated the grave of a comrade, and then fired three volleys over it. About six o'clock, the G. A. R. formed in line in the grove at the foot of town and proceeded to the cemetery. In the parade were members of the lL 0. O, F, and many children all ing flowers. The line of march direct to the cemetery under the spiring strains of marti al music. § Upon arrival at the cemetery, prayer was offered by Rev, B, H. Eisenberg, after which the parade was broken in- to squads, each to decorate the grave of some comrade. In the center of the cemetery was erected a handsome flo- ral monument dedicated to the un- known dead, and such was the in- scription upon it, worked out in flo w- ers, The G. A. R. formed in line front- ing the monument, Commander Brisbin introduced the orator of day, Mr. Chris. H. Murray. It the first appearance of Chris. before the public as an orator at his home, and the ancient aphorism carries little weight when it is said that a prophet is without honor in his own country. Such are not the circumstances at- ached in this instance. His address was a masterly one, abounding in brilliancy of metaphor and true oratorical effect. Mr. Murray opened his oration by a tribute to Columbus and the glory - of his immortal deeds, he pointed « the underlying philosophical basis the late rebellion and its ethical economic outcome. He concluded his address by a glowing tribute to the un- rewarded heroes of the war and a plea for the realization of our nation’s destiny-—the dialectic union of liberty and authority and a universal catholic freedom. bear- wus in- the was and DEATH AT TUSSEYVILLE, Mrs, Margaret Hable Dies After a Long Iiness, Mrs, Margaret Ruble, widow of Peter Ruble, who died about fifteen years ago, died on Tuesday, at Tusseyville, at the advanced age of seventy-three years, Mrs, Ruble had enjoyed good health until about one year ago, when she was troubled with an affection of the heart.

The horse dashed the carriage against a tree, overturning it and throwing out Mr. Barr with great force. His left hip was fractured and his skull injured. A physician from Harrisburg was sent for and his ehildren were summoned. His condition is extremely critical and it is feared he may not recover, Rev. Barr is a minister of the Pres byterian faith and a brother of Mrs, J. C. Boal, of Centre Hall.

Burkholder, last Friday | morning, The services were held at nine o'ciock at his home at Centre Hill, and when the funeral cortege wended its way slowly towards the cemetery at Tusseyville, where the re- mains were interred, over one hundred conveyances followed the remains, The financial circumstances of Mr. | Burkholder were in the best shape and he is reported as having over $6,000 out on interest with no indebtedness, He carried an insurance policy we un- derstand for the sum of $5,000, but as near all insurance policies contain a clause making the policy void in case of suicide, the amount may not be col- lected without litigation. wy a A new temperance paper is to be i started at Bellefonte, for a certainty. | Newt.

It is to be hoped that what road is made will be made so as to be lasting, and not for a season. Better have made a short stretch and make it right, than go over a long distance that will last only a season. If supervisor Bruss wants the good will of the taxpayers, let him set an example of good road making in which former supervisors have fail ed. There is a right way and a wrong way of making ronds and the wrong way has been tried long enough. A — New Use for Bicycles, The introduction of a livery system in bicycles is now becoming general in all cities, hired on the principle of hir- ing horses and vehicles, which is one of the oldest institutions in Europe and America. Resorts where bicycles can be hired are as popular as those where a boat can be had for an hour or two of rowing, so that a ride on a bicycle will be as general an indul- gence as a ride on a livery horse or a row in a hired boat, in on ——- A Toaupurancs Paper, Drowned Herself, : About five o'clock on Sunday morn- ing, as George Fouss, residing at Fouss’ mill, a short distance abuve Ty- rone, was looking around the place he discovered Miss Carrie Myers at one of the springs which abound along the Juniata river, and upon going closer he found that her head was entirely submerged and that she was lifeless, She had been suffering from typhoid fever for the past two weeks and while her attendants had left her she slipped out of the house and drowned herself. wel, P.

Allegheny St., *y Bellefonte, Pa. Allow Stop off Privileges. The Pennsylvania railroad company has decided to grant to passengers holding World's Fair Excursion tick- ets of pink variety the privilege of stopping off in each direction. In or- der to have this done the person when buying the ticket must tell the agent the name of the station or stations they wish to stop at. The agent will then write plainly the name of the sta- tion on the back of the ticket, which is for the information of the conduct- or. Without this endorsement they will be treated as continuous train tickets. p——— - Excursion Tickets. Commencing June 1st, 1863 the Penn- sylvania Railroad Co., will place on sale Two Day Excursion Tickets be- tween all stations on Lewisburg and Tyrone Branch, and to all stations on Philadelphia & Erie Railroad Divis- fon between Wilkesbarre, Tomhicken and Renovo inclusive at greatly redue- ed rates. These tickets are good for passage on day of issue or the next suc- ceeding day, and when sold on Satur- day they are good for return until the following Monday inclusive, A No “R” Required, The popular fallacy that it is illegal to sell oysters or expose them for sale during months without an “r” in their names is exploded. The act of June 2, 1891, gave oyster dealers permission to sell oysters all the year around. Pre- vious to that time, the act of April 10, 1878, was in force, which imposed a fine of $100 upon any person who offer- ed oysters for sale during June, July or August. But dealers openly sold oysters in prohibited season, and lat- terly the prosecutions were few and far between.
