—Senator Alexander and Representative
Gephart weio in town on Tuesday.
—We return thanks to Hon. Wm. A.
Wallace for copies of tho Congressional
Record.
—Francis Murphy will tell the people of
Altoona what he knows about temperance
on next Monday.
—Dr. Miles Kirk, brother of Dr. K. T.
Kirk, of this place, is now a practicing
physician at I'ebershurg.
—On and after this date, overcoats will
be sold at cost at Newman's Kagte Cloth
ing Hall. Remember this. 2-tf
—The snow of last Thursday was a wel
come visitor to all. Since then sleighs
have been flying merrily, and people gen
erally have been happy.
—An old couple married lately at Mt.
-•Ktna, Lebanon county. The bride, Mrs.
Sallie Keller, is 86 years old, and tho
groom, Mr. Leonard, I mine], is 87 years
old.
—There will he a supper given by the
members of the Lutheran congregation of
this place on the evening of Tuesday Jan
uary 28, for the benefit of their Sunday
school.
—Tho current number of '• Madame
Gossip" announces that a youag Balti
morean has been led into am-AusA, and
will, a week from to-day, bo sacrificed at
the bymenial altar.
—"Clear the track 1" was the shout of
the young urchin as he coasted down High
street the other day, and we noticed that
every one seemed to think obedience to
this pervnitory mandate much "fetter than
sacrifices."
—The four sons of Mr. Henry Bock were
riding last Sunday afternoon, when the
sleigh, striking a drift, tipped over, pre
cipitating them to the ground. They are
all young, the oldest being but 17 years,
and all fortunately eca|>ed injury.
—A meeting of the Executive Commit
tee of the Young Men's Christian Associa
tion will be held in their hall on Friday
evening next. All members of that Com
mittee are expected to be present, without
regard as to how excellent the sleighing
uiay be.
—Sunday last was a beautiful day, but
there were too many horses and sleighs in
rapid motion to accord with the sacredness
of tho day. Sleigh hells do not chord very
well with church bells, and if the Fourth
Commandment was not broken outright it
was fearfully bent by many persons.
—The senior partner of the " Model
Book Store" earnestly protests that that
institution, although very pro*]rous, will
hardly support two married members.
But for ail that, it is very mysterious
what calls him away from town so often,
always coming homo in such a very pleas
ant humor.
During the season of good sleighing
run-a-ways are a common occurrence, and
a ateigh ride without one i* voted "slow."
There u on# or more on Saturday and
also one on Sunday, but a* we did not hear
of any one being killed or any thing
smashed up, it ia perhaps not necessary to
go into details.
—Most of the churches of thia place held
exceedingly interesting services during last
week, and they are being continued In the
Presbyterian church during the present
week. Nightly services will bo held in the
Baptist church of Milesburg this week, and
ao any one desiring to go to church has an
excellent chance to do so.
—Saturday evening last was universally
chosen by our young folks as the night of
the season for sleighing parties, and indeed
a mora favorable time seldom occurs. We
heard of at least four from this place. One
perticularly gay party went to Centre Hall,
partook of a delightful supper at that place,
and, after an enjoyable time ail around,
returned.
—An immersion took place In Spring
creek Sunday afternoon last. The names
of the three persons lrmi>er.'sd are Mr. C.
W. Parks and Mr*. Paries, the mother of
Mr. Parks, and Miss Ada Ilaupt. Rev.
W. A. Biggert, of the Baptist church,
was the oiaciating minister. To an ordi
nary observer it would seem a very cold
ceremony at this time of the year, but
Kev, Biggert avers that he did not feel the
cold until coining out of the water.
LxiTtrKKa.—Quito early last fall It
was hinted that tho public, during tho
present winter, would be treated to a course
of excellent lectures. A commltteo of tho
Young Men's Christian Association was
appointed some timo since to effect this
object, but, because of delay, arrangements
wore not completed a ■ soon as desirable.
But now that tho first of these lectures is
soon to he delivered, we think that all will
forgive tho delay in tho superior merits of
the speaker who will first grace tho list,
and In the interesting subject of the lecture.
No lessdistinguished speaker than Schuyler
Colfax has been secured, and ho will
deliver hislccturcon "Abraham Lincoln."
Anything in regard to tho life and charac
ter of tiiis President is interesting, and
when given by one so competent to know
of hitn and so brilliant an orator as
Schuyler Colfax it will bo doubly valuuble.
Tho date on which thu eminent speaker
will bo able to deliver his locturo to a
Bi'llcfonto audience has been appointed for
Tuesday, January 28, probably in thcCourt
House. Tho price of admission to nil
the lectures given under the auspices of tho
Association will bo reasonable and within
the reach of those who desire to attend. It
is very necessary, however, not only that
tho lectures may be a financial success, but
because of tho excellence of the s|>eakcrs
secured, that largo nudicnces shall greet
each one; and we know that our people i
are sufficiently appreciative to secure this.
DEATH ov A FORMKB UKLI.EKONTKR.—
The sad intelligence has been received of
the death of Mr. Charles T. Zimmerman,
at Ferry, Kansas, on Thursday, the ild day
of January. Charley, as ho was usually
called by tho young men of our town and
by whom he was so well known, was a
most estimable and exemplary young inan,
and was universally respected. Ho went
to Kansas several months ago, being in
rather delicate health at that time. His
health continued to fail until the termina
tion of his earthly career at the time
mentioned. Tho sad occurrence which
close* hi* life just on tho threshold of
manhood will, we feel sure, send a pang of
sorrow to the hearts of all his acquaintances
and friends in this vicinity. Hut tninglint;
with our mournful thoughts the recollec
tion is pleasant that "none knew him but
to love him,''and with such death is but
the developed realization of life.
—We arc not naturally proud, and of all
things we do despise conceit; hut this
frigid weather our inmost feelings rise up
in silent self-congratulation at our noble
cast-iron stove. It is not beautiful, neither
is there any comliness to be found in it,
and it wouldn't grace a drawing-room
worth a cent; but when its cheek blushes
rosy red, anil it quivers with a warm glow,
it assumes a positively entrancing aspect in
our eye. One like it has lately been placed
in the Presbyterian "Wigwam' and make#
that crarkrd-up edifice quite comfortable.
When our own gets to doing its level bc#t
we often feel like rushing outside the office
for a draught of fresh air.
—We have been so wonderfully pressed
for space in our local columns of late that
we have neglected to note the re-organi
/.ntion of that fine musical combination,
tho "World-Renowned Jubilee Singer#,"
of Centre county. In the above title we be
lieve we have inserted all the words, al
though in these matter# one i# quite liable
to err. It is a band of five colored ladies
and gentlemen, who give concerts, and
whose music is pronounced by all to be
surpassingly sweet. They gave their in
itiatory concert of tho season at Centre
Hall, on tho 2d of January. At that place
a large audience greeted them, and so cn
thusiatic was tho audience that a repeti
tion of the performance was asked for,
which was given last Friday night to a
large and very well pleased audience.
They expect to perform at Snow Shoe and
oilier places, and we can promise
at all these localities a rare treat if they
attend.
—Gen. Beaver announced in the Presby
tcrian Sabbath-school Ut Sunday after
noon that the contribution* of the previous
Sunday had bean the mean* of rendering
four faniilie* Tory happy. The remainder
of the month the contribution* will be
devoted to the name purpoae, and ail ran
reat assured it will be wisely expended.
There ii much destitution in our midst, hut
there are also many kind hearts and willing
hand* to offer relief.
—We regret to learn from the Lew la
town True Drmoerat, that David I. Pru
ner, Kfj., for many year* a well known
citixen of Bellefonte, I* suffering from a
stroke of paralytD, being the second with
which he ha* been afflicted. Mr. P. i* at
present a resident of McVcytown, Mifflin
county, and i* pat seventy year* of age.
In itvllefonte he wai always regarded aa a
man of remarkable vigor for hit yaara.
—No school was held In the public school
building of this place last week. All the
school* commenced again, however, last
Monday morning. The building was too
oold during the early part of last week for
our pretty lady teacher* and the darling
little cherubs who come to tbem to be
taught, and so they adjourned over for
more moderate weather.
—ln appointing Capt. Jacob Kinenhuth,
of Mlllbeim, mercantile appraiser for the
present year, the County Commissioner*
bave paid a deserved compliment to a
worthy democrat and an exocllrnt man.
('apt. Kiaenhuth will make an efficient of
tcar.
—As usual, lbs cold snap was very de
structive to house plants. Apple* and
potatoes also suffered.
f
TIIR DEATH ANOKl.. —Pcrhup* no more
terrible dispensation of Providence could
possibly bo visited on mortals than has,
since our last issue,occurred to our popular
Register, Mr. W. K. llurchilcld, and hi*
interesting family ; at least it seem* to u*
peculiarly severe. Hi* much-loved wife
ha* for several year* been in delicate
health, alternately bettor and worse—once
or twice near to death's door—and yet her
devoted husband and many friend* failed
to realize that she was so near this life's
final end. A few week's ago she was
stricken again with an uttaek of an old
constitutional malady, and was for day* !
hovering between life and death. So low
was she, that on the Sunday previous tho j
report of her denth reached us. Her hus- j
band was, of courso, almost in a state of
distraction, and very severe wa* the part
ing when the Angel Death at last brought
relief to the suffering body, und the Angel
Mercy wafted the tried spirit to a place of
rot. An unusually deep affection existed I
between these two earthly companions, ;
which had been year by year made stronger •
as link after link ap|>cared to bind them
together. Four children had been given
them—the oldest aged twelve, tho young
est four. One was silently laid away in
tho cemetery at Pine Grove. 1* it any
wonder that she wished to live and guide
the step* of those on the earth 7—yet God 1
willed that she should join the ono in
Heaven, whose nnino she often repentod
while on her death bed.
Mrs. Rurchfield's maiden name was
Susan Lytic. Her homo was at Pine
Grove, this county, in which place husband
and wife also resided until his election fir
Register, when Bellefonte became their
home. # She was about 83 year* of age at
the time of her death.
Words are inadequate to depict the
grief of tho stricken husband, and to esti
mate the lot* to the children of being thus
early rendered motherles*. Hut let the
seperation not be forever; let it only be a
departure for a l>etter home for a few hort
year*. Both father and children have now
a stronger tie to draw their affection*
Heavenward. Iler careful and consistent
life and her glorious death should not be
without it* lesson to lhatc remaining
behind.
The funeral services were held at her
husband'* residence, Runday afternoon at
2 o'clock. Rev. William Iaurie officiated.
A large number of friends followed the
body to it* last resting place in Howard
street cemetery.
A pAtxrt'L Accietst.—On Friday
evening last the train brought to this place
Mr*. I) G. Iluh and tho oldest of her
on*, a lad of not over twelve year*, each
of whom had suffered painful accident*.
Mis* Lizzie, a daughter, and Mr. Tomb, of
Jersey Shore, a brother, accompanied the
sufferers to minister U> their wants. The
injuries from which they were suffering,
though not serious, were painful. Ths
young lad had a broken leg and Mr*. Rush
wa* the victim of a serious fracture of
some of Ibo small bone* in a lower limb—
the result, in the case of Mrs. Rush, of a
run-a-war in Philadelphia. How the boy's
occurred we did not learn. Mr Tomb
left Reilefontn the following morning. The
sufferer* are doing well They will remain
a short time at the Hush House, when they
will go to their residence on Spring treet
NKW Ono AX ron TIIK KIISCOPAI.
Cur men.—The Episcopal congregation, of
this place, have on band the erection of a
new and beautiful organ in their church.
The one now in use I* very old and much
out of repair. It wa* second-hand when
brought "to thi* place, thirty-eight year*
ago, and ha* been in constant use ever
since. The congregation have determined,
therefore, that rather than repair the old
one it is policy to purchase a ow one. A
contract ha* boon ch>scd with a prominent
New York firm to have the organ placed
in pnaition and ready for use before the
expiration of February. The firm 1* the
same one that furnished the grand organ
at present in Trinity churrh, New Y'ork,
and also organs for other prominent
ehurrhea, and so the music may be expect
ed to he very superior. This congregation
is doing everything possible to render the
service# attractive, and a constantly In
creasing attendance I* the result.
Awomitw MaaiiiaoK TO-DAT.—Every
body ha* heard of the happy event to
come off Ihia evening, and *o wa do not

any new*. Who could help knowing
that *omething vary happy wa* going to

ba* mantled the face of Mr. James Potter

ThU evening, at 8 o'clock, the long-ex

Kx-tiovernor W'illiuia IJigler in hi*young

breadth of the county ho ha* many warm
friend* and sincere admirer* who will be
lilghly delighted to hear how be waa hon
ored by hi* neighbor* of Clearfield on the
anniversary of hi* 'With birthday, Wo
therefore copy the following account of
a very pleasant event froiu the Citarftrld
l/cjiublienn :
One of the happiest event* that we ever
witnessed wa* played off on Governor Hig
ler and his excellent lady, on the sight of j
the 81 si of December. l'bo Govartiur, on j
account of hi* health, had been housed fur
a week or more, and he was not aware of
what wa* transpiring outside of bi* room. |
Rut that day being the anniversary of hi*
filth birthday, t)so friend* and neighbor* hud
conceived the idea of "putting up a job."
on Mr. and Mrs. Biglcr, in the shape of a
grand old-time gathering, or reception,
at their spacious mansion.
The surprise wa* complete on the part of
the venerable Governor, but not so on the
part of Mr*. IMgier, who bnp|>etied to ;
I pass through the dining room about H
| o'clock I*. M., and discovered that the
table was loaded down with provision,
etc. Bho, however, soon realized what
wa* on hand, and secrecy was enjoined, at
least so far as the Governor wa* concerned.
About 9 o'clock the <lO, 70 and 80-year
old neighbor* commenced flocking in, and
the parlor wa* soon filled. The Gover
nor became nervous and nodding to his
wife, they immediately slipped into the
library, he remarking :
"Mother, what die* all this mean this
cold weather 7 Why, we are entirely uti
-1 prepared for anything of the kind ! Mow,
will we treat our neighbor* under the cir
cumstances ?"
Mr*. 11. then opened the door leading to
the dining room and said:
( "There! Hixty-flve year* ago this 81>t
dnv of December I"
'The Governor remarked : "I we it all;
• the joke is on me."
Ho then became reconciled and returned
to the parlor, shaking the hands of <'alvin
i*t, Armenians, Catholics, Skeptics, Demo
crats, Republican*, GrocnbncU-r*, and
i everybody else.
About 10 o'clock, a younger grade of
callers began to {aip In, and among them
was the Governor'* ton Kdward, who was
aware of the plot, but conviently absent
'luring the evening t'non his entrance,
the Governor spoke to him a* follow* :
"Why, Kd , where have you been all
night? You came very near missing the
fun we are hating here to-night. All our
neighbors aro calling upon Ma and I."
Kd., of course, adjusted himself accord
ing to circumstance* and the fas ts in the
'ease, and the Governor'* enjoyment In-
I creased, he In the meantime de. faring that
he was only 6.1, while a half a score of
middle-aged widows were within hearing
distance.
In fact, the affair was a happy one for
everybody. It wa* a true expression of
' the respect and affection that is entertain
ed in this community for Mr. and Mrs.
Bigler. The meeting will long be remem
' bored by those present, as an occasion of
joy and delight.
ArocsTf* lloorxn YRSTKUDAT.— It it
curious what a pcwKant uw young men
' have of selecting for their wives voung
i ladies from a distance. Augustus M
Hoover, it i* true, did not go vorv far, but
•till he went out of town. Now, it wa*
not overbody who knew Augustus wa* in
I love ; but they should have known it, for
' who ever heard of any young nian with
hat r >manlic name who did not have a
heart msceptible to the many charm* of
the fair sex. Augustus, like a sensible
young man, was not very communicative
about hi* matrimonial intentions, but of
course love, like murder, will out, and the
up|indiinn* <>f Miss Grundy became a
' rality in the Presbyterian church of
ib*vh Creek yesterday afternoon at exact-
I.y 8 o'clock. The fair young lady who
, wa* thus rendered happy wa* Miss Addie
Tenner, of Beech Creek. Messrs. J.
j Wesley Gephart, Kdward Hume* and
, John C. Miiler, the senior partner of Mr.
Hoover in the "Model Book Store," ac
companied the groom to act a* usher*.
I The happy pair departed on the 4:30 r. M.
train for Philadelphia and New York.
Their tour will lie prolonged for about ten
day* : and we prophesy and earnestly hope
that their period of happiness will have no
end. Tbev have our earnest rongratula

assembly and discus* the condition of their
work, but almost weekly they assemble at
some of the pleasant hornet in our midst
and enjoy the social companionship of their
co-laborer* The last one was held on
Tuesday evening at the residence of
Mr. John O. Love, on Linn lreet, and
there enjoyed the pleasant entertainment
which the host and h<tc* of that resi

sembly consisted largely of young folks,
and pleasant and refined enjoyment seem-.
Ed to find it* full expression. Music by
thoae graceful and skillful performers,
Miss Green, Miss Rnowden and Mr*. Love,
on the grand Cbickering piano which was
lately purchased by Mr. Love, formed e
prominent portion of the evening'* pleas
ure. Being temperance people in act aa

hour the assembly dispersed, expressing
by their joyfbl countenances what a ideas,

—Quite a sad accident occurred to Mr.
George Gross on Monday. He wa* riding
from Penn'i Valley to Bellefonte on a

Line Lutheran school, at 9 a. others
followed during the day, until the Centen
nial Union School, composed ol four de
nominations, filling neat and comtnodl
out school room, went through with it*
lessoiu and other varied exercise* in a most
interesting manner between 7 and fi: 80 in
tha evening. If any strict denomination
al Ist thinks them must be something ajar
or out of Joint In a Union Sunday-School
we may seftdy refer him to almost nay of
our Union school* in Northern Ceatnß
Pennsylvania, beginning with at least three
not morn than four tuilea from Bellefonte.
That the new year may he the beat year yet
enjoyed by all our churches and schools, la
the heart's desire and prayer of your* hope
fully in the work, K. Cmrrxsoe*.
