Mrs, Martha Crawford Dies After =
Iiness,
On Thursday, 1 , Martha Craw-
ford, nee Shugart, Nas her |
About three years ago she lost her ey®
sight. This misfortune she bore most
peacefully, because she saw spiritual-
ly. Her remains were laid to rest on
Sunday afternoon in the beautiful cem-
etery at the Cross church, by her pas-
tor, Rev. J. M. Rearick. Prof. D. M.
Wolf, D. D., of the Reformed church,
and Rev. Hoch, of the Evangelical
church, were also present and assisted.
For many years Mrs. Crawford had
been an invalid and always during
that long seige of suffering, she was
uncomplaining, bearing everything
with true christian courage.
She was 61 years, 1 month and 27
days old, and leaves her husband, Mr.
Samuel Crawford, one daughter, Mrs,
John Glass, and two sons, George B.,
and John, to mourn their loss,

It Hdrries Them Along.
The Punxsutawney Spirit man says
that parties wishing their letters to go
through in a hurry should always
write ‘In haste’’ on the lower left
hand corner of the envelope. When
these magic words appear on the en-
velope everybody connected with the
postal service jumps around lively,
The stage driver whips his horses in-
to a brisk trot, the postmaster dances
a jig, and the route agent rushes for-
ward and tells the engineer to pull the
throttle wide open and let er go.

Hon, Samuel Gilliland Expires on Wednes- |
day Morning at Oak Hall,
Harris township's venerable and | |
most respected citizen, Hon. Samuel |
Gilliland, passed from earth to the be- |
yond, at his home near Oak Hall, at
7.80, on Wednesday morning. He be- |
longed to a past generation in which |
he was a well-known personage of in-|
fluence and usefulness, He represen- |
ted this county very creditably in the |
legislature some 35 years ago and his |
stern integrity would not permit him |
to draw several hundred dollars of ex- |
tra pay which the ‘members voted |
themselves. He was a Christian and |
a consistent member of the Presbyteri-
an church. Of life-long honesty and |
uprightness, he was widely respected,
and never shirked a duty or hesitate al
to uphold that which was right,
Next March the deceased would |
have been 83 years old, and is the
of the old Gilliland family of this
ley. He has a son and daughter
ing, James at Oak Hall, and Mrs. H.
Sechler, of Bellefonte. His wife died |
some years ago. Funeral at the Branch |

Farmers’ Institute Season
The season for holding farmers’ in-
stitutes in this state opened on Mon-
day. These gatherings are held under
the direction of the Department of Ag-
riculture and will continue through
the winter and spring. John Hamil-
ton, deputy secretary and superintend-
ent of institutes, has arranged for
series of these meetings in every coun-
ty in the state. Senator Critehfield,
of Jenners Cross Ros ads, and ( ieorge B.
Powell, of Meadville, have
gaged as speakers by the department,
Lo assist at the institutes whenever the
local managers find they can be of ser-
vice. The expenses of the speakers
will be borne by the department.

Will Charge for Bleycles,
The great increase in the number of
bicycles carried by passengers on the
Pennsylvania railroad has led to the
issuance of an order that the railroad
will no longer carry bicycles free as
passenger's baggage. They will be
rated the same as excess baggage,
except that the minimum charge will
be but fifteen cents. The baggage men
say that of late eight or nine bicycles
is nothing unusual on one trip, and
that goes to show the increase in bag-
gage heretofore seldom carried.

Apples Plenty.
A merchant of Snow Shoe has
bought from the farmers and shipped
to eastern markets this season over
100,000 bushels of choice apples, which
fact tells very plainly that the apple
crop was not a failure in Centre coun-
ty. The most of these apples were
purchased at the low price of 20 cents
a bushel, while for some of them only
10 cents was paid.

rr First Normal School.
Juring the year 1855, Prof. A. K.
Browne and Ira C. Mitchell estab
lished a Normal school at Howard,
and so far as known this was the first
Normal School in Central Penna.
Our recollection is, that this item is
correct. Mr. Mitchell was then and
still is, an able champion of the cause
of education in addition to his ability
as a lawyer,

A Whopper, Ratabags
Our subscriber, J. B. Harper, of near
Potter's bank sends us a rutabaga that
is a little elephant. He writes : “This
is a Miller and Quigley rutabaga from
the Seven Mountains, weight eleven
pounds, and beats the 8} pound one
from Millheim—of course, the Seven
Mountains are way ahead.”
Since they have found the largest
rutabaga over there, they should be
able to find Henry Fry next.
