—Among the hotel-keepers who re

a first-class hotel and will be glad to re
ceive the patronage of the traveling

—Miss Sallie Rurnside gave a very de

Mr. Joseph Cedars, who conducts
the elegant bakery on Allegheny street,
expects soon to remove to the bakery
on Bishop street, Mr. Sands carrying on
the business at the old stand. Mr. C. is
a first-class baker, and his customers
will probably follow him to his now lo
cation.
—From thirty to forty boys gather
every evening in the reading-room of
the Y. M. C. A., where they read the
very best newspapers published in this
country, or play checkers, six sots of
which have been provided. The good
it does to the boys in this place is incul
culable.
—Mine. Rents's female minstrels
are coming this way and will be here
soon. They exhibited in Harriaburg
last week during the Republican con
vention, and were offered SSOO by the
Republicans for the use of the hall in
which they had engsged to exhibit.
They refused this offer, and their re
eeipts amounted to SBOO.
—Mr. "Witt" Moyer, a former excel
lent clerk in Seebler's grocery store,
and now employed on the l'hilipsburg
branch road as brakeman, is at present
in town carrying his left hand in a
sling. His vacation and the condition
of his hand are occasioned by a aevere
smash which his fingers received some
time since while coupling cars.
—Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
nights last the sleighs flew thick and
fast. The pike from here to Centre
Hall was musical with the jingle of
bell* ami the peals of merry laughter
from the happ7 occupants. On Thurs
day night three large sleds, each con.
taining a jolly crowd, were observed
passing the hotel at Centre Hall, in a
very brief space of time.
—Competition is the life of trade,
and the trader who keeps the best
goods and the neatest store will nlways
draw the patronage. Especially is this
true of 11. Sechler A Co.'s grocery store.
Notwithstanding large competition in
the same line of business, they still
continue conducting their business in
the same successful manner which has
always characterized them.
—•Economy is said to be the only
means that will enable a inan to buy a
farm. The people of Centre county
can practice economy in buying grocer
ies by patronising 8. A. Brew A .Son's
grocery store. By doing so tliey will
not only be able to buy a farm, but will
also find health ami happiness, because
Brew's groceries are always the ches|>est
and best.
—ln consequcrfCe Af the fact that the
young Indie* invited Revernl memherß
of the Addition Club to n leap-year
sleigh ride la.it Saturday night, the club
wu left without the necessary quorum
for meeting. Me*r. Kllis Orris,
Prof, ileebner, Frei. Reynolds and
Charles Schroeder were among the
guilty ones who deserted the Club on
that erening. The ladies take advan
tage of leap year privileges to do con
siderable harm.
—The farmer* who visit thi* place
and leave their wagon* for a short time
to enter a store are compelled to keep
one eye on their wagon* while the other
they devote to the btieine** they m*y
be transacting inside. The inevitable
hungry highway cow i* sure to be on
hand, and after taking a sniff at every
thing in the wagon* will proceed to
make a meal of the hay that the farmer
may have brought along. It usually
terminates with a rush made by the
farmer afttr the cow, which he may
have to repeat a half dozen times in
half an hour. There seem* to be
enough hay stolen from the farmers in
this way to feed at least half the cewa
in town.
—The connection of Mr. Pennßigony
with the Hush House as clerk has ter
minated, but we understand he will re
main in town until spring.
—An addition has recently been
made to the practicing legal profession
als of this place by .1. 11. Vosburg, Esq.,
who has opened an office with Hon.
John B. Linn, in the BroekerhofT House
block. He is u thoroughly able und
conscientious gentleman, and all busi
ness confided to him will be executed in
a skillful manner.
—The doors of the Presbyterian
church, this place, were closed last
Sunday, and the immense congregation
accustomed to worship in that edifice
were scattered around among the other
churches. The occasion of this was the
departure of ltev. William Laurie, the
pastor, in obedience to a sad ami un"
expecteil summons to attend the funer
al of his brother.
—Mr. Austin llinton, of Snow Shoe,
has specimens of Peruvian corn which
measure three-fourths of an inch in
length by half an inch in breadth and
over a fourth of an inch through. They
were sent to Mr. If. by Mr. -John Lick,
of California, in which State this splen
did corn has been cultivated with won
derful success. Mr. llinton will plant
it and see what can be done with this
South American product on his Snow
Shoe farm.
—"There is a tide in the affairs of
men which taken at its flood leads on
to fortune."' The imj>ortant aim is to
strike the right tide, which some men
do and some don't. W hen the first
great swelling tide of Centre county hu
manity camo surging into Secbler's
grocery store ho took them in a tender
spot by selling them good goods cheap,
and this tide has ever since been flow
ing in so continuously that it is lead
ing on not only to his fortune but his
fame in the grocery business.
—The book so long expected of the late
General J. B. Ileod is now just published,
and the delay is well repaid by the beauty
of the style in which it is prepared and
published for the sole benefit of "1 ho Hood
Memorial Fund," It is called "Advance
and ltetreat—Personal Experiences in the
Armies of the United States and Confed-
erate States," containing two portrait*;
(one a lino heliographic photograph, the
other a tlno lino engraving); four fine
maps or battle fields ; IJOO pages, Bvo. well
printed, handsomely bound. Write to
General O. T. Beauregard, N'ew Orleans,
for all the particulars, or better, send in a
postal order or registered letter, Three
Dollars, and have a cojIV sent to you reg
istered postage free, and then nk your
neighbors to subscribe for it. Why not 1
—Our genial friend,* Uriah Stover, of
Benner township, hoe pluck and en
durance in the matter of teeth pulling
we lind occasion several months ago to
commend, on Tuesday with an
elegant new set of masticators in his
mouth that greatly improved hi* good
looks. He felt so proud that he imme
diately went to Frank Blair's store and
bought a new pair of spectacles and
with the new teeth and the new specs
he looked more like a judge than ever.

ENTERTAINMENT.— I.at Saturday even
ing Mr. James Milliken, of this place,
gave an elegant entertainment to Hon.
Elihu Washburno, late Minister to
France, at Augustin's, in Philadelphia.
General James A. Beaver, of thia place,
and many of the notables throughout
the State were present. The entire
afliir was conducted in tlint rcktreht.
and elegant style of which Mr. Milliken
is a consummate master.
Wr.notii.—The residence of Mr. K.
M.. Murdevant, of Philipsburg, w* the
scfne of a happy event on Wednesday
afternoon, the 4th inatant, it being the
wedding of hia daughter, Miaa Carrie,
to Mr. Jamea It. Munaon, alao of Phil
ipaburg. The ceremony ia aaid to have
been noticeably quiejl and unostenta
tioua, conaiderir.g the high aocial atatua
of the contracting partiea. Rut the
congratulntiona of the friend* of both
partiea were none the leaa earueat and
profuae.
DBATR or Wti.aia KNOI.L.—O N Wed
nesday of last week, Wilbur Knoll, son
of Mr. Alec Knoll, of Howard, expired
suddenly while on a trip to Rurnaide
township. So immediate was his death
that he had breathed hi* la*t*before he
could be conveyed from hia sled into
the house of Mr. Samuel Rechdol near
by. He was afflicted with inflammatory
rheumatism, which is supposed to have
affected his heart and caused his death.
Mr. Harbison Holt, of Snow Shoe, took
the body of the unfortunate young man
to bis home in Howard.
HOWAHI) ITEMS. A correspondent
from this good old burg sends us notes
as follows ;
A protracted meeting is in progress
in the borough school-house, under the
charge of ltev. Avery T. Long, of the
Christian brethren. The house is well
filled, and good order nnd close atten
tion characterize the nightly meetings.
A much-needed addition to the con
veniences of our town has been made
by the opening of a meat stand by
Messrs. Shuey & Allison. They kill an
excellent grade of stock, and sell No. 1
meat at reasonable prices. In conse
quence, we have lost, to some extent,
our appreciation of the weekly visits of
your Hellofonte meat wagons.
There are rumors current here—with
what foundation we do not know—that
a portion of the members of the Disci
ple church are endeavoring to secure
the removal of their old and faithful
pastor, Kev. S. J. Mitchell, and sup
plant him by a younger man. Mr.
Mitchell's self sacrificing services in be
half of his church,extending over near
half a century, and his long residence
und upright and godly life in this com
munity, have endeared him to a very
large proportion of the people, and the
rumois excite much unfavorable com
ment and severe criticism.
A musical convention opene<l in Lu
cas' Hall on Monday evening last under
the direction of Professor Crissman, ol
Mill Hall, and promises to he quite a
success. It will close with a concert on
Suturduy evening, which will be well
worth hearing. The best musical talent
of the neighborhood is interested, and
the programme will be an excellent
one.
The Howard Literary Noeiety, which
has held weekly meetings during the
winter, full of amusement and instruc
tion to those who attend, has about
completed arrangements for a public
literary entertainment to be given
some time in March. The leaders in
the movement aro capable, energetic
and conscientious workers, and will
soon be able to announce time, place
and programme. The success of the
enterprise is already assured by the
character of those engaged in it.
Your correspondent watched those
well known surveyors, Mr. William P.
Mitchell, of Lock Haven, and Messrs.
Joseph Hevling and Klli* F. Orvi*. of
your town, on their way to Hoy's Hun,
last Monday. If this party of "land
sharks" can't straighten the kinks out
of any lines which may happen to be
in dispute, we should despaifof finding
one that could.
The death of Wilbur Knoll, last
week, was asUttling blow to the entire
community. He left home on Wednes
day morning as well as usual with one
of J. L. Long's teams, bound for J. H.
Holt's logging camp—was taken ill
towards evening, and died without a
struggle, within a few moments of
reaching camp. He was a son of one
of our old citisen*. Mr. Alec Knoll, and
his funeral on Saturday last was largely
attended. He leaves a wife and four
little girls to battle with the world.
"CREATlON." —MissOomacht could not
have selected an oratorio which will at
tract such general attention, aud every
body will be so eager to hear as Hay
den'irbcaiitiful "Creation," which will be
presented on the 2fltli of February,
llayden bad no peer in the musical art,
and his "Creation," dealing with the
most exalted theme |>ossible, is sublime
both in music and conception. Of
course its presentation will not be ex
pected to erjual the rendition of a pro
fessional opera troupe, hut under the
competent superintendence of Miss
Onmacbt, and with the twenty or more
bright young ladies and gentlemen who
are assisting her, it will certainly be
the finest musical entertainment ever
given in this county. Knowing how
willing Bellefonte always is to patron
ize home taient, we are <juite confident
that "Creation" will be greeted with a
large audience.
DEATH or AN OCTOGENARIAN. — On
Saturday, the 31st day of January, the
death of Mr. David Kreainer occurred
at his home in Aaroiisbjpg. He had
long since survived man's allotted age
of three score and ten—yes. even four
score—and died at the unusual age of
87 years. He lived among a people of
considerable longevity, and was Aarons
burg's oldest citizen. The attendance
at his funeial was large. The service
was conducted by Uev. C. F. Deininger,
of the Reformed church.
Rooos TOWNSHIP. The following

the Democratic citizens of Rogga town

ship.
LOVE'* PLEASANT CONSUMMATION. —The
oft-repeatod and always pleasant sound |
of the wedding Loll*, tho noto* from 1
which have boon hoard for ronturie*,
again wn* liatonod to la*t Thursday
evening, a* they rang out even sweeter
than usual at the residence of Mr. .lohn
M. Wagner, of Central City, near Mile*-
burg. Mr. W. is a wealthy and promi
nent gentleman, and on this occasion
the nuptial* of hi* daughter, Miss Jen
nie, to Mr. I'etor F. Keichline, wore '
celebrated. The grooin i the son of j
I'eter Keichline, Esq., of Hock spring*.
At weven o'clock the relatives of both
parties had gathered at the residence >
of the bride's father and the impressive
ceremony was solemnised by itov. J.
It. Shaver, of the Mileshurg M, K.
church. The congratulations which
ensued were most earnest, anil were .
followed by all seating themselves
about the festive board and partaking
of a most elegant supper with infinite
relish. It is to he regretted that Miles
burg bas no regularly organized band,
but the young folks supplied its place
as well us possible under the circum
stances by gathering about the residence
and beating noisy strains upon drums
and kettles and whatever would emit a
musical sound.
The story as yet is but hslf told, for
although the pleasure here was very
great, an even more brilliant reception
awaited the happy pair at the groom's
home, to which they repaired on the
following day. Mr. Peter Keichline,
Sr., has been blessed with numerous
sturdy sons and handsome daughters,
the majority of whom are happily mar
ried, and have many children growing
up about them. These—children and
grandchildren—all gathered home to
give re/at to the occasion. On Friday
and Saturday the groom's paternal
borne was a scene of unbounded joy
which found expression in funny jokes
and merry laughter.
This may be called a happy marriage,
and is certainly less of an experiment
than is often the case. The two fami
lies have, as it were, an afhoity for each
other, and this is only a strengthening
of the tie which was made several years
before by J. M. Keichline, E-q,, of this
place, a brother of the grooin. also mar
rying one of Mr. Wagner's daughters.
All unite in wishing them a happy
future.
THE UNIVERSAL DEMAND —llisastou
ishing to realize the |>opularity attained
by Power* A Son, of this place, as boot
and shoe manufacturers. From all
parts of the country come orders for
their boots and shoes. We give a few
figure*, extending only through the
past three Wet •ks, which show that peo
ple from all parts of the United State*
| send orders to this popular firm. The
following are among the order* : F. H.
Hevarly, Hasting*, Nebraska, one pair
extra fine shoe*; Kl. Legacy, Baltimore,
Md., one pair extra tine boots ; Joseph
hiias and tieorge Goldenberg. of Wil
liamsjrort, each one extra fine pair of
shoe*: John Montgomery, of Altoona,
one pair of extra fine hoot* ; A. F.
Martin, of Cleat field, two pair* of loots,
one coarse and one extra fine ; 1. Ging
hery, of Woodland, Pa-, one pair of fine
shoes; W. P. Duncan, John A. Mull,
Robert Taylor, ami K. M. Sturdcvant,
one pair of fine shoes for each of the
, first three and a pair of double extra
fine boots for the latter; H. C. llrew,
Tyrone, one pair of extra fine shoe*.
Perhaps there is not a retail firm in the
United State* that can exhibit figures
a* goo.l a* these. The reason for this
popularity is because father anil son
and all the employes are skillful work
men. Their boot* always fit and give
the best of satisfaction.
s
A IhsTiNc.t MIRN VISITOR. To-day
one of the most wonderful invention*
of the age will he brought to this pllce
and exhibited in the vacant store room
under Reynolds' Hail. It is a clock
which in complicated movement, histo
rical, astronomical and Biblical interest
far exceeds its famous Strasburg prcde
' cesaor. It should alo attract as much
attention, a* its inventor i* said never
to have read a dc tailed description of
the Strasburg clock until after his own
I marvel of ingenuity had been complet-
I ed. Already it has attracted the at
tenlion of the world, and none should
allow this opportunity of viewing it
pssa by. The price of admission will
involve hut a small outlay, as adults are
admitted for fifteen cents and children
under twelve year* ten cents.
A TOMAHAWK FOUND.— Mr. Xewlin
Hall, of Howard, owns some well-culti
vated fields from which we would sup
pose all traces of Indian days hsd long
since disap|*eared. But on Monday of
last week, as a stump was being remov
ed from one of his fields, a veritable In
dian tomahawk was discovered. Some
painted savage, with revenge in his
heart and a tomahawk in his hand,
probably dropped it there as he tied be
fore the advancing tide of civilisation,
J and this noble tree, gathering the dan
gerous weapon beneath its spreading
| roots, has hid it there to he revealed at
this late day, and hring to eur remem
! branee the Indian wars of an hundred
1 years ago.
CENTRE COUNTY POLITICS IN 1821
Mr. John M. Furey recently tore down
tho residence of his ancestors, situate
at the foot of N'ittsny mountain. j n
spring township, and in a crack of one
of the logs discovered a political relic
in the shape of an election ticket
dating way back to the year 1821. It
is printed on the rough, coarse paper i fl
use sixty five years ago,*and is slightly
stained, but the names—even that of
"Jackson," written by Jeremiah Furry
himself, who died in remark
ably legible. Among the names that
appear on the county ticket are neveial
whose children or children's children
are yet among the most prominent pec
pie in this county. There is the we||.
known name of James Potter, son of
brave old General Potter of Revolution
ary celebrity, and Potter is yet one of
the most numerous and highly respected
names in this section. William Bun
dle, another name which appear* in the
same connection, was the editor and
publisher of the old liUrfoni<
and uncle of the present distinguished
General William Brindle, of Philadel
delphia. Two other names- Samuel
M'Kean and William Thompson— need
hut be mentioned to suggest to all a
host of respectable people hearing the
same names throughout the length ar.d
h-eudth of the county. This interest
ing and valuable relic proves that the
Divine blessing will descend even to the
fourth generation on those who fear
God and serve their country.
THE CROWNING CONCEIT. —Next WEEK
the enterprising village of Centre Hail

The tuning of instruments, the assem
bling of sweet singers, and all the ho*-
, tie and life incident to the opening of a
convention will commence early on

crash of instruments and voice* on Fri
day evening. Professor William T.
Me yer will direct the exercises of the
convention, and none are more am oc
tant to do so than he. The famous mu
sicians, J. Witmc-r Wolf and Mi.s A IS
Fisher, also promise to be present.
■ Centre Hall, with her usual ho-j :tai:ty,
promises to give free entertainment to
all ladies and gentlemen who will come
