gave his label the '90 cast. He informs

thinks it will cateh up.
—{’, J. Shaffer, our traveling sales-
man, has come out and announced
himself as a full-fledged candidate for
Recorder on the Republican ticket
Jefl is in the fight to win the nomina-
tion, but he won't get anything more
than that. This is a Democratic year
for Centre county.
—Will Boozer went to Hazleton
on Monday to attend the State Camp
Sons of Veterans, which meets there
this week. He is the delegate from
the Centre Hall Camp. Other mem-

Harper, Ed. Riter and John Martz
The boys all went in full uniform.
John, C. Miller, of Bellefonte,
out as a Republican candidate for Re-
corder, is scouring through our valley
putting up jobs for his nomination.
He called at this office yesterday, and
in a short time he was confronted by
his opponent, Jef. Shafler. We kept
a good stout club handy to “‘salivate’’
either one of the boys should they get
gay within these sacred Democratic
precincts. We expected trouble when
they came together, but they simply
exchanged salutations, no confidences
however, and then each took a sneak
in different directions hunting up vo-
ters, and a vague explanation why the
good farmers in our valley are justified
in paying an increase in school taxes
#0 that Quay’s spoilsmen would have
more boodle.
Makes a Vast Difference,
It makes all the difference in the
world what kind of a burden a man
carries as to how he complains of the
load, says an exchange. Twelve
pounds of baby makes a man tired un-
to death in less than two hours, where-
as 130 pounds of sweetheart used to sit
on the lap from 8 p. m. to 12.30 a. m.
without a murmer from the owner of
the lap. Half a mile to church is a
long walk when a ten mile tramp
around a billiard table is recreation.
Death From Headache Powder,
At Glen Uugion, Clinton county, Mrs,
John Grugan, while suffering from se-
vere headache, swallowed headache
powder. She soon became speechless,
lost the use of her limbs and lapsed in-
to unconsciousness. Physicians did all
they could to restore her, but she died
next afternoon,
In Pittsburg there were three deaths
from taking Kohler's headache pow-
ders,

Hiram Durst is putting the finish-

painting it entirely white. The build-

ance.
The foundation for the building lo-
cated on the Avenue above the Bpring

as a skim station or cream separator,
is about finished. The erection of the
building will be commenced at once.
The Democratic ticket as nominated
at Tuesday's convention meets with
the approval of a majority of Demo-
erat in this locality, and is regarded as
an unusually strong ticket; of course
some were disappointed, but this was
to be expected.
On Sunday morning last D. H.
Ruhl, our popular landlord and Re-
publican candidate for the nomination |
for sheriff, had a slight attack of verti-
go, but it passed off in a day or two,
and like the Duke of Glouster he can
sow exultingly exclaim “Richard's
himself again.”
Several young meu were before Mag-
istrate Grenoble on Monday evening
last, to answer the charge of disturb-
ing the congregation of the Lutheran
church in Georges valley. After a
sharp reprimand and paying the costs
they were allowed to depart, with the
understanding that if repeated, it
would oblige them to appear in Belle-
fonte and prove a very serious matter.

The water question evidently has
been lost sight of during the politieal
excitement of the last few weeks. But
the matter is now likely to receive at-

The men employed in putting up
the poles for the Commercial Tele

The Democratic primaries were
largely attended on last Baturday; in
many places the vote polled was as
large as that polled at the regular elec-
tion. Of course the Leelers got their
work in, and many an innocent, hon-
est voter was prevailed upon to vote
for the other fellow. Some few candi-
dates were left, and the number that
will be around to interview the people
has been materizily decreased by Sat.

Stamp Statistics:
In a recently published catalogue of
the postage stamps of the world are
some interesting statistics. The total
number of all known varieties of
stamps issued by all the governments
of the world up to the present time is
Of this number 131 have been
issued in Great Britain and 3.8543
the various British colonies and
tectorates, leaving 9.837 for the rest of
the world, Or, dividing the totals
among the continents, Earope issued
3,359; Asia, 2.671. Africa, 2,390: Ameri-
a, 4,660, and Oceanica, 905.
Taking the countries separately, the
most prolific in stamps is the United
States, which leads the list with 287
followed (curiously enough) by Spain
with 278, and Uruguay and Shanghai
with 215 each. Two of the British
colonies have issued more varieties of
stamps than the mother country
Victoria with 174, and Ceylon with
188. The rarest stamps, consequently
the most expensive, are the Mauritus,
worth $5,000 each; one British Guiana
of the same value; one of the Hawaii
appraised at $4,000; one of Roumania
at $1,500 and several of the United
States at from $500 to $1,200 each.

Bieycle Trast,
A bicycle trust, with $80,000,000 be-
hind it, has just been organized, and it
is said that nearly every bicycle man-
ufacturing establishment in the coun-
try has become a member of the com-
bine. The trust has secured the con-
trol of the tube and billet works and
of many of the rim manufacturing es-
tablishments. It is said that the trust
will increase the price of bicycles, and
that no wheel will be sold under $50.
The increase in price is to take place
on August 1, 1899, and it is stated that
after that date all wheels will be hand-
led by one dealer in each city. Orders
that are placed now for wheels will be
filled at the regular prices, but after
August 1st, the orders will be filled at
trust prices.
