Rev. Wolf had his “Harvest” vices at this place on Sunday forenoon in the Lutheran church. Mrs. Olivia C. Stover, of Rosecrans, Clinton county, is visiting at the home of Mrs. (G. W. Stover near this place. | 8. R. King the popular landlord of the Coburn House, was visiting his | sick mother at Aaronsburg Sunday. R. F. Vonada and wife spent a few days visiting friends in Rebersburg last week, and also took in the camp meeting. The painters are putti ng the finish- ing touches on Meyer Bros’ house, which makes a very neat and attract- ive appearance. Rev. Brown of the Reformed church will preach his “Harvest” sermon on Sunday a week, Sept. 11th, in the aft- ernoon at two o'clock. Mrs. Frank Hackenberg is attending the sessions of camp meeting at Har- ter's woods near Rebersburg, and will remain until they break camp. The fever patients at this place have | now all fully recovered, which is very gratifying, and speaks well of the abil- ities of Dr. Frank to treat this much dreaded disease. Clarence Fryer, a twelve-year-old son of Henry Fryer, one day last week while playing with his brothers, acci- dentally fell to the ground with such force as to break his right arm. Dr. Frank was sent for and set the broken member, and the lad is doing as well as can be expected. There has been quite a lot of petty thieving going on at this place quite recently; visiting chicken houses at night seeming to be a specialty. These sneak thieves would better take warn- ing, or some time they may get a warm reception when prowling about at night. The other day while one of our men in town was attempting to fish up the end of a broken chain in his well, and standing on a ladder down at the edge of the water, he suddenly became over- balanced, lost his equilibrium, and fell head foremost into the water, but in his descent he managed to get his feet entangled with the rungs of the lad- der, and thus saved himself from going to the bottom, and perhaps a watery grave. Wadsworth’s poem, “The old oaken bucket which hung in the well” no doubt has lost all its charm for him sincé this encounter. ser- | The Stamp Tax, The operations of the new stamp tax will put an end to the practice of en- deavoring to conceal the purchase price of a piece of property, stating it at “one dollar and other valuable con- siderations.” The full consideration will have to be set forth in the deed in order that the instrument may SPRING MILLS, Our Seribe Polnts Oui the Need ofa Change in Oar Present Voting System, Philip Mersinger, of Joliet, IlL, for. merly of this valley, is here on a visit, the guest of Michael Shires, Dr. J. C. McIntyre and wife, of Bellefonte, are visiting our village, the guests of J. N. Leitzell. The elder mills are beginning to hum in our neighborhood, and of course ap- ple butter boiling will soon be in or- der. Mrs, Mertis Edwards and son, of Philadelphia, are visiting relatives and friends in our village, guests of her brother, W. 8. Musser. Mrs. H, B. Miller and family after being on a visit to her parents at Mill Hall for the last ten days or two weeks returned on Monday last, considera bly improved from the trip. To judge from the number of vehi- cles passing down the pike on Sunday last, one would suppose that about half of our village attended the Brush valley camp meeting. The attendance at the camp is reported as having been immense, Merchant Howard Rossman ceiving new goods almost daily.

While least, very gratifying a large assortment of goods, notwith- standing only a month since he pur- chased his general fall stock. Mr. Long's business operations are very extensive, That there is wide-spread dissatisfac- tion in both political parties, especial- ly on the Penns valley side of the mountain cannot be denied, and this emeral character, but like Banquos ghost it will not down. The people here know only too well, that they are and have not been fairly treated by their so-called political leaders. Are contemptuously ignored in the nomi- nations, or at best given some insignif- icant office, or rather it is presented to them about like an alms offering —out of charity, and yet they are expected to support and use their influence in behalf of the machine manufactured ticket, to elect and send delegates to go through the stupendous farce of a con- vention to nominate candidates, all of whom were ‘fixed’ by the bosses the night previous, telegraphed to the city and published in the newspapers the following morning—in advance of any balloting or even meeting of the con- vention. Is itany wonder that our people are dissatisfied, and are seeking some avenue to remedy the evil, some plan to place themselves on an equali- ty with other sections of the county. The Crawford county system of voting directly for the candidates, instead of useless machinery of delegate elections as we do now is strongly urged. The system was agitated in our county a few years since, but the bosses appre- hending that their jobbery occupation would be destroyed if adopted, man- aged to have the question ‘‘referred’’ — in other words shelved, and of course since then has been lying dormant. After the recent nominations of both parties were promulgated, and it was discovered that all the candidates were centered in and around Bellefonte and on that side of the mountain, notwith- standing we had assurances that it would be to the contrary, the Craw- ford Sounty System has” been revived with ten fold vigor. The le of Penns valley are now detain to be litically something —nothing they ave been long enough, and the Craw- ford county system seems a remedy and no doubt will be finally forced to a su 1 issue, as a means for them to obtain justice, and be placed on an equal plane with the Bellefonte side of the mountain, The system works ad- mirably and gives universal satisfac- tion w er it has been adopted, and a suggestion to return to the old dele gate system would be ed as al- most equivalent to invoking birds of illomen. The fact is, almost an change from the present system wou be an improvement, any system or plan to abolish machine rule is a_cou- summation devoutly to be wished, bins IM RII LINDEN HALL, Items of Interest from the Busy Town the Country, Mrs. Henry Zeigler is again very ill with asthma, P.

Andrew J. Stiffler, Fred A. 8tiffler, of Whitlemore, Mich, To that land of many mansions, Up high. in those realms of light, Our mother's glorified Spirit Hath suddenly taken flight: To the arms of her dear Savior, Where her Soul will know no care, In that land of life and glory We shall surely meet her there, Many the years she hath suffered, Many the burdens she meekly bore. Many the prayers to Heaven she offered, Many Heaven; smiles those features wore, Bat now in sight of the hosts of glory, Her voice, newly borne, she'll raise To Him who hath redeemed ber, To Jesus, she'll give eternal praise. Had the chariot wheels of Father Time Not moved so cruelly slow, Thesaffering that so recently ended, Might have closed years ago.
