10000 PEOPLE ON THURSDAY,
The Grange Encampment and Fair Draws
the Largest Crowd in Its History—Ex.
hibits Unsurpassed for Excellence bof
Quality —Palmer Spoke Wednesday and
Brumbaagh on Tharsday,
w~ For number of people present,
weather conditions, and quality uf ex-
hibits, the forty-first Encampment
aud Exhibition was the best ever held
in the history of the association.
Wednesday and Thursday were big
days, but the latter far surpassed the
former in number of people present.
Between eight and ten thousand peo-
ple occupied the grounds Thursday
A thousand automebiles, buggies and
spring wagons were packed on the
lower end of the grounds and in the
afterpoon the great crowd was divided
into several largg groups—those who
remained on the principal avenues,
the six or ceven, hundred who occu-
pied the auditorium and a good sized
crowd that took an interest in the
ball games scheduled for the after-
noon,
The continuous moving of the great
throng up and down the ‘svennes re-
duced the parched ground to dust
which became so dense as to give to
the park, from a distance, the appear.
ance of a great smoldering fire. The
crowd endured this unpleasant feature
without murmuring and even stood
for a good sprinkling of dust on many
things that were eaten and drunk dur-
ing the weak,
The exhibit of products of farm,
garden, orchard and vineyard was a
feast for the eyes snd it is doubtful if a
better display was ever made. The
large exhibit building was filled with
meritorious products in this line and
one wing was devoted to a display of
antiques and needle work. The handi-
work of the women of Penns Valley
made a most excellent exhibit and
was a feature that was not surpassed
by any other,
One of the prominent new fealures
inthe main building of the Exhibi-
tion this year was the fine display of
fruit from a number of the State mod-
e! orchards located in Centre county.
It consisted of a large variety of
apples, some of which were nicely
wrapped in tissue paper and boxed ip
the same manner as the famous Ore-
gan and Washington fruit is put upon
the market, Besides these attractive
packages were a number of plates of
apples and pears, all of which showed
evidence of careful handling by the
growers, the spraying being one of the
chief means of obtaining the clean
handsome specimens. Beaides the
fruit there we'e three cases of mounted
insects showing many beneficial and
injurious kinds from the division of
Zoology laboratory Another attrac-
tion was the exhibiting of parasitized
Han Jose scale which was distributed
to a number of orchardists in the coun.
ty who were in need of some assist
ance in controlling the scale, Those
who had fruit on exhibition from
their model orchards were: D., D.
Royer, Rebersburg; J’ E. Miller,

heim ; Wm. H. Grove, Coburn ; R. D

WEDNESDAY, DEMOCRATIC DAY.
Wednesday was Democratic Day,
and everywhere there was Democratic
enthusiasm. Mr. Palmer, candidate
for United States Senator, and his
party consisting of Hon. W. T. Creasy,
candidate for Ligutenant Governor,
and Charles N. Crosby of Crawford
eounty, candidate for Congresaman-at-
large, arrived on schedule time from
Lewisburg, where a meeting was held
Tuesday evening. The Aaronsburg
band headed the procession that
brought the candidates to the Park
Headquarters, aud then direct to the
Democratic headquarters, presided
over by county chairman, Bheriff A,
B. Lee, Here the wvandidates were
greeted by hundreds of Democrats,
Republicans, Prohibitionists, Pin-
chots, and men who kept iLheir politi
cal ideas to themselves, At the npoan
hour, Mr. Eby of Zion entertained Mr,
Palmer under a white tent in one of
the pumerous blocks on the Park.
After this, the candidate for United
States Benator and the administra.
tion’s representative in the lower
house of congress, was again gripped
by the hand by bundreds more who
had come to the Park to see and hear
the much talked of and much read
about Mr. Palmer,
While Mr. Palmer was being greeted
at the Democratic headquarters, the
large auditorium was filled to overflow
by men and women from all parts of
Central Pennsylvania. The first
glimpse of him on the stage was a
signal for applause. David K. Keller,
cashier of the Penns Valley Bank, a
thoroughbred Democrat, and a repre
sentative citizen, was named by Coun-
ty Chairman Lee to preside, He
prefacing each introduction with fit-
ting remarks,
The first speaker was Robert 8.
Bright, candidate for Congressman-at-
large, a citizen of Phifadelphia coun-
ty. Following himm was Hon, W, T.
Creasy, candidate for Lieutenant
Governor, ‘Farmer! Creasy wss a
familiar figure on this particulaf plat-
form, but at no previous time did he
speak so eloquently and fluently, He
touched largely on the road question,
& question with which the people were
familiar.
Mr. Palmer, the chief speaker of the
day, was sgain greeted with applause
as he arose to speak to the large audi-
ence, He dwelt upon two of the fifty
counts in the indictment drawn up by
him against Heunator Penrose. The
speaker was listened to with rapt at.
tention, and was frequently interrupt
ed with hearty applause,
Oune needed only to stand by a knot
of men wio were discussing Mr. Palm-
er to be impressed with the fact that
his presence in Centre county meant
many additional votes for him. [his
applies to men of ali political faiths
Not a few Republicans openly expres.
ed their intentions of supporting the |
Democratic leader, believing that his |
superiority of manhood justifies such
action.
There were many expressions of re-
gret that Mr, McCormick, Democratic |
candidate for Governor, was obliged to |
leave his party at Lewistown and re-
turn to Harrisburg, instead of coming
to the Park. But since he had
been in Centre county several times
previous to this date, he was not cen-
sured.
on
REPUBLICAN DAY.
Thursday was Republican Day
The crowd was larger than on the day
previous, because Thursday Is always
the “big day” of this gathering
The attendance was estimated at from
ten to twelve thousand, and possibly
the latter figure is not high enough.
The chief attraction was M, G.
Brumbsugh, Republican candidate for
governor, that is, he was the chitf
politieal attraction. He whirled up
the main avenue in a large touring
car, and was #tationed at the Republi.
can headquarters, where he was greet.
ed by his political friends. In the
auditorium he spoke of the natural re.
courses of Pennaylvania, its beautiful
mountains, paid a just tribute to
Penns Valley, the Dutch, ete. He
said everybody could understand the
meaning of his platform except a few
politicians, which is true wereit not for
the fact that his party platform and his
own differ in material things. The
pame of Benator Penrose was not
mentioned, neither was there refer.
ence to the stale administration, io
fact there was nothing political in bis
address, it was simply a bit of palaver
punctuated with a bit of applause that
always had its beginning to the rear of
the speaker, .
Local Ball Team Wins and Loses
Centre Hall engaged in two bace-
ball games during the Encampment
and Fair, winning one aud losing the
other. On Wednesday Spring Mills
met defeat by the score of 11 to 5,
principally through the effective piteh-
ing of *' Btuffy '’ Btover who hurled fr
the local team alter Spring Mills made
four tuns off Bradford's delivery in
three inniugs., Corman pitched a
good game for Bpring Mills but was
taiserably supported st times. The
Gregg township boys appeared in new
striped grey uniforms, but the suits
contained too much * tailor” to per-
mit of fast play, and to this, in a
measure, may their defeat be attribu-
ted. However, since the baseball rea
son is about at its close, the uniforms
should be in first-class shape next
spring for a successful season.
On Thursday afternoon Bellefonte
proved a harder proposition for the
home team. Stover was on the
mound for Centre Hall and Beholl for
Bellefonte, It was not Btover's day
to shine, however, and after the first
inning, during which the visitors
scored three runs, he was replaced by
Kline of State College, The latter
had plenty of speed and a fast-break-
ing ball, but on the Bellefonte tesm
were several sure hitters who kept
their team in the running. The score
at the close was 8 to 4. Auman, for
the home team, played a good game
on the defensive, in his position in
center fleid,
