And They Were Finally Married.
This is how a Bartlett, Tex., report-
er recently began an account of a loeal
marriage: “Thursday was a most
beautiful day. Not a cloud flecked
the blue sky, and the sun placed a
mantle of gold on the earth. It wasa
winter day by the cycles of the earth:
it was a summer day by the temper of
the city, the pulsation of hearts and
the smile of radient faces. While un-
seen angels sang the marriage anthem,
visible forms whispered o'er and o'er
the old, old song of love that the heart
fosters through the valleys overgrown
with shadowy tresses.’

SPRING MILLS.
Gregg Township Having a Lively Seramble
Over the Constable Question,
Mrs. William P. Alexander, of our
village, has been seriously ill for the
last ten days or two weeks with heart
trouble and other complications. Her
present condition is very critical.
The suit against P. R. Auman by
James MeCool, two of our well known
citizens; for {trespass and damages
amounting to five hundred dollars was
discontinued, and the costs paid by
Mr. McCool.
All the stores in our village reporta
very satisfactory business during Jan-
uary. Commercial agents report traf.
fic on the road as being very fair, or-
ders are small but numerous. Orders
for spring stock, advanced dating, are
very limited —too early.
D. H. Ruhl the popular landlord of
our village inn, has been in Bellefonte
all week as juror, aud being a Republi-
can candidate for the nomination for
sheriff, of course when off duty was
“looking around.” From the scatter.
ing information I have received, and
from other reliable sources—parties
who are well informed as regards the
drift of political matters, Mr. Ruhl is
evidently growing in favor and popu-
larity, and has already marshalled
quite a strong following. On this side
of the mountain he is unquestionably
the choice of the Republican party for
sheriff,
William Allison, of the milling firm
of Allison Bros, has been quite ill for
the last two weeks but is now slowly
convalescing. Mr, Allison is one of
our present school directors, and has
been again renominated by the Repub.
licans for his third term. Being a very
popular gentleman and thoroughly
qualified for the position, Mr. Allison
has always received the support of a
large number of Democrats who in the
matter of school directors, look to effi-
ciency and ability —not party, and he
will again be eo supported. His re-
election is almost beyond a doubt.
‘D. I. Wance residing a short distance
above our village, will leave for Illi
nois on the 20th inst. We are sorry to
lose Mr. Wance, but he has just receiv-
ed a first rate offer from that section
and sccepted it at once, and Is obliged
to leave rather suddenly. He had no
time to make
that he was now pm
ing west with all his household
seems to be an unnecessary expense,
The ups and downs of life were won-
derfully exemplified here on Saturday
last. The rain of the previous night
froze as fust as it touched the ground,
converting our streets and walks into
one vast sheet of ice. Quite a number
of our goodly people went down ‘‘ker-
sock’ while playing cireus on the ice
surface in order to retain their footing,
and many when up, neglected to re-
main up and soon went down again,
Others in their circumambulations
were 80 cautious and watchful, that it
looked as if they were walking on eggs
and trying to avoid breakage, and even
then despite the eare exercised, before
they knew it they were sprawling on
their backs contemplating strange
sights of innumerable stars and odd
shaped moons at midday, and at the
same time uttering expletives so em-
phbatie, that the ice cracked and the
surrounding atmosphere emitted a sul.
phurous odor. Quite a number were
hurt by slipping and falling, but no
one very seriously.
Bince the caucus of both parties, the
shoe emporium of C. A. Krape is
thronged day and night with politi-
cians of high and low degree, all dis-
cussing the political questions of the
day. Besides our township candidates
the discussions take a wide range, Ex-
pansion, Monroe doctrine, Imperial
ism, Quayism, and almost every other
ism under the sun seems to engage the
attention of the statesmen congregat-
ing in this well known bazaar for high
grade shoes for little money. The dis
quisitions on the several topics at times
isso spirited, lively and confusing,
that frequently Mr. Krape can hardly
distinguish a brogan from a joint of
stove pipe—an extra policy of life in-
surance for Mr. Krape, is respectfully
suggested,
Here in Gregg township we have a
triangular contest on the constabulary
question. J. Orvis Beatty, one of our
active young men, has announced
himself an independent candidate for
constable; the wisdom of his action
is pronounced questionable. True,
among our voters there appears to be
considerable to Reuben
Kline, present incumbent, and who
has held the office for a period of time,
the memory of man runneth not to
the contrary, although this opposition
did not manifest itself to any degree at
the primary. Several candidates were
nominated and ballotted for, but Mr.
Kline received fifty-one votes and Mr.
Jeatty fifty votes, a margin exceed-
ingly alight, but still sufMiclent to
make Mr, Kline the regular Democrat-
ic nominee, notwithstanding I have
heard quite a number of Democrats as.
sert positively that they will not vote
Of course this oppo-
unknown quantity, but
should it prove very considerable there
is a possibility of Mr. Beatty being
elected. Still Mr, Kline being unques-
tionably the regular Democratic nomi-
nee, and renominated by a perfectly
fair vote, as the case stands today his
defeat is not very likely. R. G. Ken-
nelley also one of our energetic young
men, is the Republican nominee
the same office. The supposition is
that if the division of the Democratic
ranks assumes any considerable pro-
portions and the dissatisfied Demo-
crats refrain from voting, he might
possibly slip into the office, of course
he might, but that word ends all. On
a full vote Mr. line and Mr. Beatty
could divide the Democratic vote be-
tween them, nnd yet either one would
have a majority over the Republican
nominee. Mr. Kennelley's only hope
will be in’ the dissatisfied Democrats
voting for him direct, or by not voting
at all, and he receiving the entire Re-
publican vote—a possibility not very
probable,

The coating of ice which covered the

the hill on West Main street and ran
down as far as the marble yard on East
Main street,
The horse sale on last Thursday
brought a great many people to town;
the crowd is reported to have been the
largest in attendance at of the
sales held before. The price of the
horses, which numbered twenty-one,
ranged from $35 to $125. ‘iu

town spilled out the occupants of the
sleigh and went through town at a

posts, breaking off lamp posts, shut-

east of Aaronsburg, still hitched to the
sleigh, and with only a few scratches
on his body.
