L. T. MUNSON, President.
Local Department.
—This is tho last day of September.
—Go to Powers & Son for the best boots
and shoes.
—Buy your underclothing at the Phila
delphia Branch.
—There arc attractions about Harry
Green's cigars that tho ordinary man can
not resist.
—The pumpkins at the Fair will appear
twice their ordinary size if you look at j
them through the fumes of Harry Green's ;
cigars.
—Next Sunday evening the services in
tho Episcopal church in this placo will be
gin at 7 o'clock, and continuo to begin at s
that hour throughout the winter.
—lt is surprising that sensible men will
continue to suffer from kidney trouble j
when there is a cheap and effective remedy (
within their reach. Use Day's Kidney
Pad.
—The members of the Executive Com
mittee of the Young Men's Christian As
sociation are requested to meet in the As
sociation audience room to-morrow even
ing at 7J o'clock.
—The thermometer marked 2\° at Mt.
Washington on Wednesday of last week.
This is a conclusive evidence that winter
is approaching, and that this is the best
month in the year to buy groceries at S-
A. Brew & Son'a elegant grocery store.
—Mr. B. F. Shaffer, of Nittany, has a
pair of heavy draught horses and a small
family driving horse which he desires to
sell and advertizes them in these columns.
Those interested should call on or corres
pond with him and they will secure a bar
gain.
—Col. Jacob Ballade, former editor of
the Williamsport Sun, has been succeeded
in that position by Mr. 11. M. Wolf, Jr.,
who announces his intention to make that
paper more thoroughly Democratic and
able than ever before. May the Sun shine
brightly under his guidance.
—On Monday evening about 6 o'clock a
kerosene lamp exploded in the rear end of
Lyon <& Co's. store, and for a short time
the flames threatened serious results. They
were subdued, however, before the arrival
of the fire company. Overcoats and othe r
clothing were damaged to the amount of
about $l6O.
—lt is said that there were 70,000 men
in the great Democratic torchlight proces
sion in New York City last Thursday
night. Verily, this is an age in which
people do not intend to hide their lights
under a bushel, and, therefore, all the
people of Centre county buy their groce
ries of Sechler & Co.
—The Inman steamer, City of Rich,
mond, containing Madame Ktelka Gerster.
"the ayren-voiced queen of the opera,"
left London on Friday and will arrive at
New York in a few days. We hope the
noble ship will bear ber precious form in
safety to our shores. Meanwhile, people
can buy their groceries of Sechler A Co.,
as of yore.
—Mitchell Cunningham, a young son of
Mr. Mert Cunningham, of this place,
received a forcible reminder of the attrac
tion of gravitation on Monday morning
when a heavy bar of pig iron fell from a
car which he was unloading, upon his right
foot. It was an unfortunate accident, and
its effects will be felt for some time.
—Williamsport rejoices in the possession
of a new Democratic hebdomadal news
paper called the I/yeoming Chronicle, and
edited by that veteran Democratic jour
nalist, Col. Levi L. Tate. It is creditable
in appearance and strong in Democratic
sentiment, and will doubtless receive the
encouraging success that has greeted the
Colonel's former efforts in the same direc
tion.
—Mr. Falkcn B. Williams, of Julian
Furnace, Huston township, died at bin
home at that placo last Friday morning,
of dropsy of the heart. Mr. Williams
was a prominent citi/.en and a highly
respected gentleman. During tho rebel
lion ho sorved his country bravely as a
member of Company A, 45th Hogiment,
Pennsylvania Volunteers, lie was only
83 years of ago and leaves a widow and
11 vo children to mourn his decease. Tho
death of ono so brave and good, in tho
years of early manhood, and tho anguish
of tho desolato widow and children must
draw forth tho deepest sympathy. Mr.
Williams was interred at Martha Furnace,
on Sunday, ltov. J. A. Woodcock officiat
ing at tho funeral ceremony. A delegation
of Gregg Post, No. 05, of this place, and
tho tJnionville drum corps were present,
and tho Post ceremony was performed over
his grave.
—Among tho numerous specimens of
superior painting and paper hanging foupd
in many of tho principal buildings of this
county none approach nearer perfection than
that which now adorns the laboratory at
State College. To beautify this apartment,
where professors and students must neces
sarily pass so large a portion of their time,
tho best services of tho chief artists have
boon called into requisition. Tho wood
work has been exquisitely finished in dark
walnut graining, and lino paper of an at
tractive pattern has been placed on the
walls. Tho excellence of this work is due
to Mr. James Houser, of Pleasant Gap, to
whose skill it was entrusted, and all simi
lar work submitted to him receives his
careful attention.
—Excursion tickets to and from this
place wilt be sold during the continuance
of the fair, as appears by tho following
letter:
Wilbur F. Feeder, E.v/., Bellefonte, I'a.
Dkak Sir : Yours of the 'J4ih in regard
to the Centre county lair is received. We
will sell excursion tickets to Bellefonte on
October <!, 7 and 8, good to return until
October 0, from all stations on the main
line, between Huntingdon and Altoona,
both places inclusive, and from all stations
on the Tyrone division, as requested.
Yours truly, J. K. Krringkk,
General Ticket Agent.
—The top of a large derrick erected by
Valentines A Co., for the purpose of sink
ing an artesian well at their ore banks
below town, broke on Tuesday evening of
last week, anil some of the workmen nar
rowly escaped being struck by the falling
timber. To add to the misfortune of this
occurrence, tho heavy tools of tho work
men, weighing over one thousand pounds,
were precipitated down ono hundred feet
to tho bottom of the well. It was a tedi
ous and laborious operation to elevate them
again to their proper level.
—Of making newspapers in the City of
Williamsport there seems to be no end, and
just now one family, apparently, enjoys a
monopoly of it. Tho latest visitor at this
office is the Williamsport Chronirle—typo
graphically quite pretty, politically inde
pendent, and edited by Allen W. Tnte.
We supposo the editor is of tho -arne family
as the editors of the Star of Hope and the
Lycoming Chronirle. We extend to the
new venture our best wishes. How many
more of this journalistic family are there
yet to hear from ?
. -
—The discourse of Rev. John Hewitt,
last Sunday evening, on "Tho Rock that
is Higher than I," was eloquent and im
pressive. It accorded perfectly in words
and sentiment with the lofty subject upon
which it treated. The audience that lis
tened to it was larger than usual. No
more appropriate sequel to it could have
been chosen than the closing hymn, "Rock
of Ages," as well for the sentiment which
it contained as the charming manner in
which it was rendered.
—The nuptial ceremony between Mr.
Adam HeifTner, of Shirleysburg, and Miss
Mary Geisslnger, of Huntingdon, sister of
our handsome dental friend, Dr. J. D.
Geissinger, was celebrated at the home of
the bride last Thursday. The wedded
pair received numerous elegant and valu
able presents. They immediately departed
for the homo of the groom, at Shirleysburg,
where a brilliant reception was tendered
them.
—The Clearfield papers inform us that
Mr. David Johnson and ex-Sheriff Pent/,
have together assumed control of the
Shaw House at that place. During his
connection with the BrockerhofT House in
this place, Mr. Johnson made many
friends, who will doubtless be glad that
they can meet with a familiar face when
stopping in Clearfield.
—Next Sunday afternoon brings the
regular monthly meeting of tho Young
Mon's Christian Association. It begins at
4 o'clock and lasts for one hour. Rev.
James I'. Hughes, the efficient principal
of the Bellefonte Academy, will conduct
the exercisos. Under his leadership they
will certainly be of unusual interest, and
all are earnestly invited to attend.
—Mrs. Diana Billet, wife of Mr. Wil
liam Billet, of Nittany Hall, and daughter
oi Mr. A. Snyder, af this place, died
quite suddenly on Tuesday of last week of
heart disease. Hhe wqs about thirty-six
years of age and leaves a husband and four
small children.
—A handsome hoad should wear a hand
some hat—such as are kept at the Phila
delphia Branch.
—-The cheapest and best clothing in the
county at the Philadelphia Branch.
THE VETERAN#' RE-UNION —FOUR
THOUSAND PEOPLE MEET WITH TIIKM
IN THE GROVE, AND I'AHH A DAY WHICH
SHALL FOREVER HE FULL OF PLEASANT
MEMORIES. —Tho morning of Saturday
last dawned dark and threatening. Tho
diTll, leaden clouds overhead and tho dump
atmosphcro indicated rain, and it seemed
as though the long-expected equinoxial
storm was about to burst. It carried a
chill to tho hearts of many of those who
had looked forward to tho day as one of
pleasure in celebrating the seventh annual
re-union of tho veterans of Centre county.
But, notwithstanding a few persons were
deterred from joining tho hundred* who
departed from this place to tho scene of
tho picnic, many started on tho early
train, and every seat in the twelve passen
ger couches which composed the special
train that started at 9 o'clock was filled
when it left this place. Some went armed
with umbrellas and gum coats. The scene
around the depot before tho departure of
the special train was one of delightful an
imation. Ladies were present in gay and
varied costumes, the Pleasant (lap hand
joined the throng, breathing delightful
melody, the drum and fife of the Spring
Mills delegation was a pleasant variation,
and the squad of twenty from Company
B, Bellefonte Fencibles, gave tho scene a
military air. Passengers were gathered
up all along the route, and when it reached
Unionville even standing room was ut a
premium. Nor did the scene around the
depot complete all that gave life and ani
mation to Bellefonte in this pleasant oc
currence. The Zion Band with their
handsome wagon and eight horses passed
along Allegheny street playing a lively
air, while in front and behind them were
turnouts of every description, all en mute
to McKwen's Grove.
But as the train wus whirled along t<> its
destination what a change came over the
faco of nuture. As if ashamed of its
gloomy aspect in the presence of tho sun
ny smiles of the picnicers, tho clouds with
drew Hnd Old Sol beamed forth in all his
glory. Tho cool chill changed to a warm
glow. Never did a more perfect day for a
picnic succeed such an unpleasant morning*
For several days previous the good peo
ple of t'oionville had been vieing with
one another to do their utmost to make the
occasion, so far as they were concerned, a
glorious success. Beautiful arches of spruce
and hunting spanned the streets, residences
were tastefully and elaborately decorated
with flags and evergreens, and, a* will
afterwards appear, extensive preparations
were made to feed those who should come
unprovided. Thus, a scene of great beau
ty and activity greeted tho eyes of those
who alighted from the train at Unionville,
and as they mingled with the throng* who
had assembled from all portions of the
county, there was a concourse of fieople,
which in numbers, animation and gayety
ha* rarely if ever been equalled in the an
nals of Centre county picnics.
The military and musical organizations
formed in procession and took up a line of
mnrrh beneath the beautiful arche* and
along the gaily ornamented thoroughfares.
Their course lay through Allegheny street
to Union, thence to Chestnut street, and
then to McK wen's lieautiful grove. "With
in this cool and shady retreat were more
evidences of tho extreme care and fore
sight displayed by tho people of Unionville.
All underbrush and stone* had been hauled
away, long tables erected and a grand
stand constructed for tho accomodation of
the speakers. When all had assembled,
Rev. J. A. Woodcock, of Milesburg, spoke
the words of welcome to the veterans and
their friends in behalf of tho people of
Unionville, but it needed not formal words
to tell what the ample preparations around
thorn so fully attested. Col. D. 8. Keller,
tho .Secretary of the Club, responded in a
feeling manner. For tho purpose of orga
nization, Colonel Keller nominated Dr. G.
F. Harris for presiding officer, and a
prayer was offered by Rev. H. Lundy, of
Snow Hhoc. President Harris appointed
a committee of nino on place of next meet
ing, with Col. Andrew Gregg chairman,
and a similar committee on officers for the
ensuing year, of which Lieut. John W.
Stewart was chairman. After the roll of
voterans was called recess was announced
until 2 o'clock r. M.
The people separated from the speaker's
stand and hastened in all directions. Lunch
baskets and boxes were produced and soon
the ground was dotted with snowy table,
cloths. Then came bread and bhcuits,
celery and coldmeats, jellies and marma
lades, pie# and cake* and perhaps bottles
of sweet cream and cold coffee—nothing
stronger. Around these young isdics and
gentlemen, old folks and children grouped
themselves in genuine picturesque picnio
attitudes, and the content* of the table
cloth* quickly vanished—not by magic—
but in that manner which all who have
ever been blessed with a picnio appetite so
well understand. Whet if a few of those
crawling inhabitant* of the trees overhead
did fall down and mingle with the delicious
viands beneath, they 'were all partaken of
with equal relish. And now the utility of
the long table* to which we have alluded
became apparent. Upon them the kind
ladies of Unionville heaped the rich treas
ure of cookery which must have cost them
days of labor, and when the tables were
laden with all they would contain, bade
those not otherwise provided for to gather
around and partake. None could resist so
earnest an invitation.
With full stomachs and happy hearts
the people once more drew near to tbe
grand stand. The Zion scd Pleasant Gap
bands discoursed dolightful music. The
committee on next mooting named .Spring 1
Mills, and the committee on offlcor* woro
of opinion that the present efficient list of
officers should he retained. Treasurer
Curtin submitted his finuricial report. All
the reports were adopted. After being
regaled with music by the Fine Hall Band,
speeches were in order. Ex-Governor
Curtin led off with one of his touching and
graceful tributes to the nation's heroes,
which are always filled with so much
earnestness and ardor on such occasions
lie was succeeded by the following gentle
men in five-minute talks: Jlev. W. A.
liidge, of Eaglevillo j JJ. F. Portnny, Esq.,
Major H. H. Porster and Col. I). H. Hast
ings, of this place, and Col. Jas. F. Wea
ver, of Milcsburg. Capt. Austin Curtin
moved that thanks be extended to the
citizens of Unionville for their royal
entertainment, to the several loeul com
mittees for their untiring efforts, to the
bands for their sweet music, and to the
Bellefonte Fencibles for important services
rendered, ("apt. John Hamilton seconded
the motion and it was carried amid much
enthusiasm. The exercises closed with the
Benediction by Rev. J. A. Woodcock.
As the hour was growing late the people
now began to clamber into their vehicles
and start on their dusty journey home.
A largo number of persons who started
to the picnic in private conveyances after
they were assured that the day would be
fine arrived only in time to turn about and
go home again, so that a larger number
| visited the picnic during tbe day than was
at first estimated. After some delay, tbe
special passenger coaches with their burden
of human freight, departed from the pleas
ant town where such a happy day had
been passed, and depositing part of their
contents at the stations on the route, drew
into Bellefonte just as the sun retired for
the night. The tired and dusty picnicers,
as a rule, followed the sun's example.
A "LOVE" or AN ENOINK — The firm
of Gordon A Landis always submit the
engines which they sell to a severe test
before trusting them to the of the
parties for whom they are intended, and
during last week started a pretty little farm
engine in operation. The senior mem
ber of the firm remarked that from first to
last the engine had given him more satis
faction than any he ever had anything to
do with (and that is speaking volumesi, j
as at the first trial it started ofT with an
ease and regularity quite wonderful. The
sound of it* movement is soft and musical,
and, apparently, might be stop[-d by it
touch of the linger, and not until we know
that it is ton-horse power do we realize its
importance. A special feature HIK>UI the
engine is that, owing to a new and inge
nious arrangement attached to its safety I
; valve. It will never start in operation of (
itself, and is entirely safe in the hands of ;
inexperienced parties. Its name is "Pax- |
son," and it is intended for Mr. Philip
Gephart, of Zion, to whom it will be both
ornamental and useful.
BUSINESS AT THE " BKE HIVE. — As
may be seen by reference to our adver. j
ligaments, the firm of Bauland A Newman i
announce their grand fall opening. The
members of the 11 rm have been spending
a long lime in the large cities selecting '
goods and are confident that no establish- 1
merit in this town contains a stock so
complete in all its departments. It in- \
eludes dry goods, carpets, notions, yarns,
boot# and shoes, Ac. In another room is
an elegant assortment of men's furnishing
goods, and especial attention wilt lie given
to custom-made clothing. Those who call
early, of course, secure the best bargains.
—On Tuesday evening last a handsome
flag was presented by the Republican ladies
of this place to the organization known as
the Garfield Guards. The affair was a
feeblo imitation of a meeting held in the
Court House a few weeks ago when the
Democratic ladies presented a banner to
the Hancock I<egion. The speeches of
presentation and acceptance, however,
made by A. O. Furst and D. H. Hastings,
Esqs., respectively, were not by any
means as eloquent or able as those deliver
ed by Hon. C. T. Alexander and J. W.
Gephart, Esq., on the former occasion.
The proceedings were exceedingly tame,
and the only merit shown was in the
accuracy with which the Republican ladies
imitated the example set by their Demo
cratic sisters.

truth as expounded by an earnest and
effective speaker, a* we are bound to admit
is the case when our friend Fortney make,'
a speech. It is not often the pleasure of
the writer to listen to a speech made by a
stump speaker of either party, wherein t|,,.
speaker's enthusiusrn does not run j.,,i
with his argument and good sen e, fcr ,,j
thereby frequently fails to make a
point which might be calculated to .
date and more firmly establish the prii.H.
plea he advocates, or refute and annihilate
the doctrine of the opposition ; but the
speech of Mr. Fortney, on this or< . 1M ;
was one that the most bitter partisan ,j
take no exceptions too. Jt was lu<.i
well as terse, forcible s well as convi:. .

digging up the graves of the late war and
