other evening, that the general health
in this section is good, in spite of the
changeable weather, very little
serious than colds and some
es of grip.
If Centre Hall within the next
years keeps on improving as it has in
the past five, there will be a creditable
showing for the town. None but what
can do something in this line, if it is
only moral support of those who have
a solid spirit of enterprise.

“All the suffering and trouble among
the farmers in Nebraska, that the pa-
pers have been so full of lately, is a
thing of the past. They are enjoying
the benefit of one of the largest grain
crops ever known in the State. In
fact, they have so much grain on hand
that they are using it for fuel. The re-
ports that Bryan is losing his popular-
ity in Nebraska and the West are talse,
Out there he is still the people's idol,
and I am positive that he will be a
candidate in 1900.”

LEG BROKEN,
berman,
Wm. Weaver, son of Daniel Wea-
ver, met with quite a serious accident
miles below Penn Cave, He was
dragging a log through the woods
with a team, and the log became lodg-
to put great strain on the piece of tim-
ber, causing it to spring in the middle.
Weaver attempted to loosen the one
end with a cant hook, and the free end
sprung forward and struck him on the
left leg below the knee, crushing and
breaking all the bones in the leg at
that point. Dr. Emerick was called
to set the injured man's limb,
