—Every season brings its especial de
mand for certain kinds of food. Pre

to purchase sugar and everything needed
in the grocery line at that store.

flin counties will meet in convention in

—Many hot-blooded, restless (people
complain that tho weather is too warm for
comfort. If such (persons would live right
they might manHge to keep cool. All that
is necessary is to keep down excitement,
and to eat cool, light, healthy food. The
llrst is a personal affair with themselves,
and the lutter can ho bought at tho grocery
store of pSechler A Co.
—ln a letter to tho Williarnsport Star of
/lope, Rev. I)r. Monroe says that tho gen
eral conference of the M. E. Church as
sembled at Cincinnati adopted a resolution
declaring that any member of tho church
guilty of signing applications for license
to sell liquor, renting property for the
manufacture or sale thereof, or becoming
bondsmen for liquor dealers, shall be
brought to trial, and if continued in shall
bo expelled from tho church.
—As is well known, Messrs. Clem, and
Al. Dalo are both excellent surveyors and
have bad an extended experience in that
business in Centre county. Few surveyors
have, in connection therewith, skill in draft
ing the views, roads, lines, Ac., pertaining
to tho survey. Mr. Al. Dale, however,
executes drafts in an admirable manner.
He displays much taste and skill in the art.
Sevoral specimens recently executed by
him are models of neatness and elegance.
—Mr. Al. liaupt was tho victim of a
painful and inconvenient accident last
Saturday morning. Ho was cutting wood
by tho mode so much in vogue of grasping
tho stick on top near the s(pot on which he
intended tho axe to descend. Either hi g
thumb or tho axe made a serious slip—at j
any rate, when the axe descended it came 1
exactly on top of his thumb, inllicting a j
wound which has necessitated "loafing" j
over since. Wt> regretted t< b-arn of tho
accident.
—Wo regret the necessity which compels
us together with other friends of Mr. John
M. Duncan, of this place, to J without
his sppciety during the mid-summer months.
We learn that he expects to locate fipf a
short time at Spring Mills, where he will
conduct a Normal class, composed largely
of school teachers. Our loss will be the
gain of those among whom he will make
his home. The members of the class could
not have selected another instructor so
ably qualitb'd for his duties.
. —Notwithstanding the gripwing import
ance of (political questions, there is a sub
ject which will ever continue to be of
engrossing interest. Its demands are al
ways made by the cravings of hunger, and
the best place to pr>cure the articles to
satisfy this craving will ever be a subject
of discussion. The store of Sechler A Co. !
will always he found to bo well supplied
with almost everything necessary for tho
inner man, and because his sales are so
rapid be is enabled to keep a fresh supply.
—Through the kindness of Secretary
Heinle, wo have been furnished with tho
following list of teachers, elected by the
School Board last Tuesday evening : David
M. Lieh, Principal; J. H. Wcntzcl, Ass't
Principal ; Rosa A. Woods, Ist Interme
diate ; Nannie T. McGinley, 2d Interme
diate; Lizzie Swartz, No. 6; Mary L.
Nesbitt, No. 6; Bella K. Rankin, No. 7;
Annie McAffrey, No. 8; Marv Shrom,
No. 9 ; Carrio Humes, No. 10. Tho only
changes from last year are the demolition
of the extra Senior department, taught by
Mr. Duncan, and the creation of a new
primary school, to which Mb* Humes has
been elected, and also the substitution of
Miss Swnrtz for Miss Lizzie Campbell a*
teacher of No. 5.
Mr. Martin Foley,of Lamb street, who
has long been suffering with consumption,
died from the effects of that disease slnput
five o'clock last Saturday night. He was
about 46 years of age. Gut of resjpect to
his memory, the machine shops of Wm.
P. Duncan A Co., of which he was an
employe, closed on Monday, and hi* fellow
workmen attended the funerul in a body.
Mr. Foley leaves several small children,
from whom it was extremely hard for him
to part. Tho latter portion of Mr. Foley's
life was one of much trouble, as his wife
is the unfortunate lady who, a short time
ago, was conveyed to the Asylum for the
Insane at Danville. It is to be hoped that
the new life upon Which he ha* entered is
one where sorrow does not come.
—Quite early one morning last week
delicious strains of music vibrated through
the window casement of the sleeping apart
ment occupied by a couple of young ladies
residing on Linn street, and caused those
ladies to fancy that fairiea were holding a
morning concert among tho dew drops
below. Arousing from their slumbers and
gliding to the window, they beheld that
personification of music, a barber by pro
fession, posed in his most striking attitude
and drawing forth sweet notes from that
mcpat musical of instruments, the flute.
It was such a serenade as caused many a
pleasant dream to flit through the final
naps which the young ladies indulged in
before rising to the dutiee of tho day. The
fair ladies believe they are largely indebted
to the kind influence of a young gentleman
reaiding on Allegheny street, who, lacking
the art of music, invoked the assistance of
the above artist.
THE CENSUS OK CENTRE COUNTY.— We
have compiled from punt reports tho fol
lowing table showing the population of the
various boroughs and townships of Centre
county for thu docados of 1870, 1860 and
18;">(), in order that tho readers of tho DEM
OCRAT will be able to make comparisons
with the returns of tho enumerators for
1880. The work of the present enumer
ators is now utmost finished, and wo hope
that next week our table of population
will bo complete with tho figures of 1880.

THE CLOSE OK MISS PETRI KIN'S SCHOOL.
—Among tho most successful instructors
of the young which this place haß pro
duced is Miss Marion Petrikin, who, for a
number of years, has conducted a primary ;
school in the building next her mother's
residence on High street. Saturduy, June
10, instead of Monday, tho 21st, was
chosen hv the scholars for tho concluding
day of the school. It was known that the '
teacher had some prizes Us award for ex- ;
cellence in tho several departments, and |
the children prepared refreshments as a !
surprise U> tho teacher and to give variety
and pleasure to the occasion. Miss Louisa
Ifoy, Miss Olive Mitchell and Miss Hattie
Mann were crowned the queens, and occu
pied royal thrones in the pleasant grounds
attached to the school, while their busy and
delighted subjects circled around them.
A feast of good things, ornamented with
choicest flowers, was spread in the school
room, when Miss Petrikin was summoned
to look upon fho happy scene. Of course,
she was much delighted. In the award of
prizes, Miss Olive Mitchell received a
beautiful book for studiousness and general '
good behavior. The day was one which
will be long and pleasantly remembered
by all.
DEATH AND FUNERAL OK THE LATE
JOHN S. SI MMKRVII.LE,— Again are we
compelled to pause in the busy course of
life and make a respectful allusion to an
aged citizen of this county who, last week,
passed away from earth. We refer to the
late Mr. John S. .Sonunerville, of Snow
Shoe, whose death occurred at 7 o'clock p.
M., on Wednesday of lat week. He was
father of our fellow-citizens, Mr. James L. i
Somraerville. His decease was hourly ex
pected, and he WAS prepared to depart, i
which softened the blow to liis many
friends: He was about 70 years of age. !
After the usual services over his remains
at Snow Shoo on Friday, bis body was i
brought to Hellcfonte for interment in the j
family burial plare in the Howard street
cemetery. The large delegation of miners
and other friends who accompanied tbe
body to its last resting place fully attested
the high esteem in which tho venerable
gentleman was held by those who knew
him. He rests from his labors.
COMPLIMENTARY AND TRUE.—
The delegates who attended the recent
annual session of the West Susquehanna
Classis at Keborsburg, fell desperately in
love with Brush Valley. The following
from the Lewisburg Chronicle, is an index
to the opinions entertained by all the dele,
gates regarding tho fair valley and the
hospitable town in which tho Clitssis was
held:
The only fault to find with this valley is
its name. Brush Valley withoutthe brush.
Instead of brush it is a valley of broad, fer
tile fields. In no other valley does the
earth yield her increase more bountifully.
The very sight of the waving grain maketh
glad the heart of man. Nestled in. the
heart of such rural fertility, Kebersburg's
cup of plenty literally runneth over. The
valley Is narrow, but the hearts of the peo
ple are large, and greatly given to hospi
tality. Never did families open their
door* wider and load their tables heavier
for guesU. The pastor loci is in this re
spect also an example to his flock. The
physician of the town is In no wise found
behind in this grace of hospitality. We
liked his prescrTrdions. True, he insisted
on largo doses, but they were not hard
to take.
DEDICATION.— The new Catholic church,
erected by Mr. Lauth,at the Howard Iron
Works, was dedicated on Tuesday of this
week, with the imposing and solemn cere
moniee of that denomination. The ser
vices were conducted by Bishop Shannon,
of Harrisburg, and wore participated in by
a large number of clergymen from neigh
boring towns. Fathers O'Brien and Ken
nedy, of this place, were among those
present.
Mr. Charles Valentine is among the
young gentlemen who have returned from
school to spend their summer holidays
at home. He has been attending the Dio
cesan School, at Residing.
THE HANCOCK-KNULIHH KATIKICATION
MEETING. —Tho names of Winfleld Scott
Hancock and William H. English are re
ceived by the people with an enthusiasm
quite electrical. Never, at such brief no
tice, has a larger or more enthusiastic au
dience assembled in this county than that
of last Saturday night. We might give a
detuiled description of it, bqt that is un
necessary, for amid tbe boom of tuivil, the
display of fireworks and tho immense as
sembly of the yeomanry from all parts of
Centre county, it spoke for itself in tones
which cannot be mistaken that the gallant
men who have been nominated as tho
leaders of the Democratic host will receive
the support of all the Democrats and many
from tho other parties represented in Cen
tre county politics. Jo honor of the occa
sion, the enterprising members of tbe
party in this place rnnde a few previous
preparations to lend enthusiasm and beauty
to the gathering. These consisted in an
vils stationed on the eminences near the
jail, reservoir and on Half Moon bill,
which did their part at frequent intervals
in helping along the enthusiastic und vol
untary "boom." There were also tasteful
und appropriate ornamentations stationed i n
the Court House yard. <)ver an evergreen
arch just inside the entruuee to the Court
House yard was a banner inscribed "The
people's choice for President, Winfleld
Scott Hancock ; for Vice President, Wrn.
11. English." I'nder the glorious shade
trees were suspended numerous Chinese
lanterns, which, when illuminated, added
greatly to the brilliancy of the scene. At
an early hour tho people gathered in dense
mosses.
The first evidence of active demonstra
tion was made about eight o'clock, when
the members of the Hancock Club assem
bled with torches before their headquarters
on High street. Forming in a long pro
cession, they marched out Water street to
greet the delegation and band from Pleas
ant Gap. These added largely to the pro
cession and a counter march was made to
Linn street, where the glorious host was
again augmented bv a large delegation of
patriotic Democrat# from Milesburg and
Bald Eagle Valley. All was now wild
excitement along the lino of march, and
cheer after cheer went up as the immense
procession proceeded to Allegheny street,
thence to Bishop, thence to Spring, thence
to High, and up High into the Court House
yard. First came the Mountain City band,
then a blazing line of torches, then the
Plcasapt Gap band, and then a line of peo
ple in vehicles. The crowd of people
who immediately rushed into the entrance
to the Court House yard almost filled that
beautiful enclosure.
A tem|K>rary platform had been erected
and upon this Chairman Spangler mounted,
and with his loud voice, so well suited to
to address a large audience, commanded
silence. After a few energetic remarks
from Mr. Spangler, W. -C. Heinle, Esq., i
joined him upon the platform and read tbe
following list of officers for organization :
Preeident John A. Woodward, of
Howard.
Vice Premdenth —Hon. J. P. Gephart, of
Bellefonte ; Benjamin Hunter, of Bonner j
township ; Hon. J. F. Weaver, of Boggs
township, and Henry Noil, of Spring
township.
Sceretariet —Joseph W. Furey, of Belle- j
font", and J. A. Mct'lain, of Milesburg.
President Woodward was evidently in I
his happiest frame of mind. After ex
plaining the object of tho meeting, he ex- ,
pressed himself a# opposed to lengthv '
speeches and thought that as the gathering
was now organized as a ratification meeting 1
tho main object should be to "whoop >r
up!" This invitation was demonstratively
responded to, and the President, through
out tho entire exercises, was repeatedly
I foremost in leading many a wild cheer at
some happy hit made by tho orators of the
evening.
Wo would like to reproduce to our read
ers the brilliant remarks made by the next
speaker, D. F. Fortney, Esq. He is evi
dently confident of the brilliant success
upon which tho Democratic party is now
entering. Ho is also enthusiastic over the
candidates, and considers the civil record of
| Gen. Hancock "as stainless ns bis sword."
Ho said that the campaign of General
j Hancock in the present light would be as
brilliant as were his campaigns throughout
tho war.
Major R. H. Fo rater occupied tho time
whilo tho band was preparing to render a
selection, in reading some apt comments
from newspapers upon tho nominations.
He also read the congratulatory messages
cnt to Hancock by Tiiden, Thurman,
linyard and other distinguished Democrats
throughout tho country. These showed
that now, as never before, the party is
united, and promise to the candidates their
hearty support. Ho accompanied his read
ings with forcible remarks.
Tho Mountain City band rendered a
selection, after which the pleasant form
and face of Senator Alexander was visible
upon the platform, and produced applause.
His remarks were exceedingly happy.
They contained numerous poetic and Scrip
tural allusion*. Hancock he likened to
Joshua in his work of leading the party to
glorious victory. His speech was received
with vociferous applause.
Col. Blair was called and responded with
one of hi* emphatic, convincing speeches.
He told why he supports the candidatM,
and prophesied that tbelr election will
give the American people a government of
which none need be ashamed.
W. C. Heinle, Esq., was the next orator,
and entertained the assembly In his usual
able manner for several minutes.
J. W. Gcfihart, Esq., was the lastspeak
er. Ili* voice wa* loud and clear, hi*
manner earnest and forcible. The applause
which greeted hi* utterance* wa* extremely
hearty, *howing that the people would be
willing to ttpend the entire night in lintcn
ing to the praise* of the candidate*. The
crowd then di*per*ed amid rnuxic and
cheering.
Beside* the Bellefonte Democracy, fine
delegation* were present from Walker,
•tyring, Banner, Union, Unionville, Bogg*
and Milesburg.
During the progress of the meeting
beautiful pyrotechnic* were visible at the
Brockerhoff House. A splendid bonfire
was also lighted on the Jail bill. Hancock
and Knglish are most abundantly ratified
HO far as Centre county is concdVned, and
November next will, see her roll up for
thern tfio largest majority ever polled
within her borders.
A THKOMOKD FESTlVAL.—Thursday and
Friday evenings of last week were occa
sions of great importance to the Presby
terian Sabbath-school of thi* place, because
they were devoted to an ice cream festival
held in the interest of that organization.
As festivals go, this may be considered
quite successful. The weather was just
right for a festival. Kvery lover of ice
cream and cake was present. Kach even
ing the entire stock of refreshments pro
vided for the occasion wa* disposed of, and
people went away hungry. Universal sat
isfaction was expressed with everything
|>ertaining to it. The receipts reached over
S9O, and a* the expenses were small, $88.46
was added to the treasury. The Presby
terians seem to have struck upon the
proper mode and time to affect the con
sciences and pockets of the public.
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.-—The Bush House,
Bellefonte, Pa., will formally open July
•Id, 18W), for the inspection of the public.
An oration will be delivered from the
