The addresses were brief and to the point. The school deserves praise for its good music. The festival in the evening was largely attended. pt A Bad Upset, Jonathan Tressler had hard luck last week. He is a thresherman, and while climbing the mountain road to Gil- more’s, above Boalsburg, the driving wheel of his traction engine broke, which upset the iron road horse. Mr. Tressler went to Boalsburg and secured twenty men engaged in rais- ing Adam Hosterman’s barn and with their assistance put the engive in ao upright position. a fp Mm Postoffice Business Brisk, The business of the Centre Hall post- office is unusually brisk just now. The Grange Encampment contributes largely at this season of the year to the receipts of Postmaster Boal. The Penns Valley Bank, W. W. Boob, the wheelman, the Centre Hall foundry, and the Reporter furnish a large per cent. of the cancellation made at the postoffice during the entire year, AI Tramp Visits Clyde Bradford. One evening last week while Clyde Bradford, his wife and two young ladies who are visiting there, were sit- ting on the front porch a tramp quietly entered the back door and began to in- vestigate matters generally, One of the young ladies happened to go into the house at that time and discovered the intruder, and did nothing but scream. The man of the house was attracted by the noise and at once ap- peared upon the scene. The tramp skipped out through the garden, over the fence and disappeared in the dark- ness. Tried to Kill His Wife, An attempted shooting affray comes from Bald Eagle township, Clinton county, above Mill Hall. During a quarrel J. E. Williams pulled a long barreled revolver, backed his wife against the door, and placed his weap- on against her chest. The woman sue- ceeded in twisting the revolver out of the man’s hands, when the infuriated husband grabbed her by the throst and choked her until he left black and blue marks and several lacerations. A knife also figured very prominently in the quarrel, but no wounds were inflicted, Williams then ran sway from the building and has been hiding in the woods since. PICNIC AND REUNION, Members of the Reformed Charge of Centre Hall Plenlo tn Fort Weeds, The reunion of the Reformed congre- gations of this charge was held in the Old Fort woods yesterday. A large number of members and friends were present. Tusseyville, Spring Mills, Farmers Mills and Centre Hall are the districts which make up the charge, and all of these places were very well represented. During the afternoon religious exer- cises were held. Rev. 1). M. Wolf, D, D., who always delights those to whom he speaks was called upon and in his own happy way introduced the speak- er of the day, Rev, C. E Creitz, travel- ing secretary of the Home Mission Board of the Reformed church, who delivered an address on the “Twen- tieth Century Movement of the Church.” Rev. Creitz reviewed the temporal and religious progress made during the century just drawing to a close and pointed out how, with much better facilities, far greater progress can be made during the century up- on which we are just entering. His Grange Encampment sad Inter Fair, The Grange Encampment at Grange Park, Centre Hall, Pa., will open Sat- urday, Bept, 15th, and the exhibition on Monday, the 17th, The live stock and poultry exhibit promiees to be an important feature and attraction at the Exhibition this year, While very few special premiums are paid, the exhibitor saves more in entrance fees and free admission at the gates than the premiums amount to at most of the county fairs. The exhibitor at this fair has all the advantages of bringing to public no- tice and advertising his stock without any expense to himself, as demonstrat- ed in former years, by much of the stock and poultry on exhibition being sold; besides having brought many or- ders to exhibitors for future delivery. This demonstrates to farmers the im- MoCool Family Improving, David McCool and four children, of near Farmer's Mills, who have been ill with typhoid fever, are Improving.

Mr. Shearer's horse was sick a day or two, but Mr. Durst’s dropped dead while at work in the field. Both these gentle- en are among the most careful horse- men in the community, It has since been learned that Mr. Durst’s horse died in the stable, and it appears the animal had been watered while too warm at the noon hour. The brute suffered wonderfully, pitching himself about in the stable until his head was a mass of bruises. As is usu. ally the case, when a horse dies for a farmer, it is the one regarded the most valuable, and this is no exception. ——————— D F. Luse Ina Runaway, D. F. Luse had an experience that he will not want to come again in his life. Monday afternoon he hitched Lyman Smith's horse to a buggy for his wife and Miss Angeline Tobias to take a trip to Brush valley. The rig was driven in front of Mr, Luse's house, where that gentleman was hold- ing the horse by the bridle until the ladies got ready to start. For some reason the horse took fright and start. ed to run and jump and took Mr. Luse with him, striking the front porch of Mrs. Rebecca Murray and dislodging one of the pillars. The buggy was pretty badly broken up and Mr. Luse run over and considerably bruised. The ladies post poned their trip for the present. Pulled a Snake's Tail, A little girl named Jennie Rohe, of Lock Haven, tugged away at a snake's tail the reptile hadn't pulled far enough under cover to be out of sight, The little one told her mother she had a rat in tight quarters, but investiga. tion proved that it wasa blowing viper instead of a rodent.
