SPRING MILLS,
W. 8. Musser, our railroad and ex-
press agent having been quite ill for
several days, his duties were assigned
to incompetency, if not absolute stu-
pidity, for in two days chaos reigned
kind of nonsense could not be tolerat-
ed and he was superceded. The fact
is, Mr. Musser is always so accommo- |
dating, affable and pleasant to every
for any agent to acquire his railroad
ability and popularity.
On Weduesday evening last quite a
pleasant family entertainment was
Andrew
Corman, a short distance above our]
village, the occasion being the first an-
niversary of the birthday of one of his

(ientzel. The extremely young gen- |
tleman was the recipient of quite a
number of very handsome presents,
among them might be mentioned a
very pretty gold ring, s handsome |
crib, several very elegant dresses, shoes, |
caps, besides numerous toys, etc. The |
little hero of the hour viewed each ar
ticle very eritically and seemed satis-
fied with the offerings. Refreshments
were then served and at an early hour |
all retired having been most delight- |
fully entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Cor- |
m . -
Je have quite a produce squabble
mong our merchants as regards prices,
of course all this squabbling is to the |
customers’ advantage. The facts of |
the case seem to be about this: Three |
or four months since, 0. T. Corman, |
produce dealer, commenced the grocery |
i
i
business here, and being quite popular |
met with unusual success, causing |
rather a jealous feeling. Next was to |
advance produce, accordingly eggs |
were advanced to 16 cents, butter 15, i
and lard 10, notwithstanding eggs to-
day are worth in Philadelphia only 13 |
cents, The object was to scare, but |
Grossman says the peach trees are
making a wonderful growth and that
several of the trees planted a year ago
last spring are bearing and produce the
choicest fruit,
County Commissioner Heckman
took time to wish the Reporter success

\ crue voters of the county.

Mrs. C. 8. Runkle, of Philadelphia,
Miss Verna Geiss, of Centre, Hall and

Miflinburg Times, The ladies arived
by train and Mr, Runkle took them
from here to Middleburg and the folow-
ing day Mr. Runkle drove to Belle-
fonte, :
Miss Annie Musser, of Orangeville,
Illinois, was the guest of Miss Lizzie
Kean several days during the past
week says the Millbeim Journal, Miss
Musser is a sister of Mrs. P. W. Leit-
zell, of Bpring Mills. Her father Dan-
fel Musser, was reared near Penn Hall,
and her mother, nee Miss Rebeces
Drelbelbis, was a former Penn town-
ship girl. Bhe finds many friends of
there was no scare, Mr. Corman im-
mediately advanced eggs and butter to |
20 cents and lard 12, and remarked
that if they desired any further ad- |
vance they should commence opera
tions and he would pass them no mat-
ter at what figures, So the matter
rests today. The merchant paying the
highest prices will do-the business.
