HONORED DEAD |
TRIBUTE PAID TO THE MEMORY
OF DEPARTED HEROES.
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.

THROWN FROM A CARRIAGE.
A Minister Serfously Injured In & Runaway
at 8 Funeral,
Rev, Mr, Barr, of Dillsburg, while
returning from the funeral of Mary
Coble, at that place on Bunday, was
thrown out of his carriage and serious-
ly injured. His injuries will, it Is
feared, result in death. He was in a
carriage with Mumper Baily. Their
horse became unmanageable and ran
away. Mr. Baily jumped, but Rev.
Barr, who is just recovering from a
serious illness, was not able to and
stayed in the carriage. 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. Latest ad-
vices received concerning his condi-
tion are not favorable, and small hopes
are entertained for his recovery.

The financial circumstances of Mr.

he is reported as having over $6,000

He carried an insurance policy we un-

At Work on the Roads,
Supervisor Bruss has a stone crush-
er at work for improving the roads of
Potter, north precinet. 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.

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,

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.

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.
