—Millheim has a flourishing Union Hun
day-school, tho teachers of which assemble
.every Friday evening to prepare their los
sons for the following Sunday. This
speaks volumes for tho intelligence and
good sense of the residents of that borough,
and is even more than the conceited and
self-satisfied inhabitants of this town can
say for themselves,
—The citizens of this community should
fool glad tlmt our excellent County Super
intendent, Prof. Henry Meyer, ha* secured
Ilov. I>. K. Nesbit, of the llazelwood
Presbyterian church, to lecture boloro the
Institute on Tuesday evening, December
28, 1880. Mr. Nesbit lectured in tho
Court House on Christmas evening, 1870,
on "Shoddy." For good wit, lino humor
and good practical sense the lecture has
never been surpassed by any given in this
place. Tho lecture on the 28th will be free
and is on "Objections to Infidelity." It is
not a defense of Christianity, but an attack
on infidelity. The lecture is an appeal to
history, logic and tho rules of evidence,
shows how unreasonable are the demands
that infidelity makes upon credulity. The
lecturer deals in argument ami facts, and
uses with wonderful force and power the
weapons of humor and ridicule. This
lecture was delivered before the Liberal
League of Pittsburg, and afterwards in
Library Hull in tho same city, by request
of the Presbyterian Ministerial Associa
tion, to an audience of more than three
thousand people.
Last Sunday night a slippery glare of
ice covered everything out-of-doors. It
looked beautiful in its transparent clear
ness, but oh, how treacherous to tho foot.
Some could traverse its brilliant surface
with a graceful, gliding motion, while
others shullled along as awkwardly as a
duck. Those who planted their feetsquare
ly on tlie ice with toes out, soldier fashion,
made the bivt progress. These icy pave
ments on Sunday nights tell us that the
righteous as well as the wicked stand 011
slippery places, nnd warn those who think
tliov stand to take heed le-t thov fall.
—Col. Forney, in speaking last week of
the progress made in the growth of the
subscription list for his valuable paper,
Progress , tir.-t gives Philadelphia compli
mentary mention as furnishing the large-t
list, then says: "From Hellefonte
alone, the home of my honored friend,
Gov. C'urtin, fifty names have been receiv
ed.'' From the tone of the Colonel's re
marks we imagine that, in proportion to
its si/.e, Hellefonte is the banner town in
the State in subscribing for Progress, which
is an indication of the high appreciation
of our people for excellent literature
—lt has been discovered that when
Francis Spoor went on his exploring expe
dition, last week, to the cave on his father -
farm, in addition to the lantern, he also
took with him a ladder, down which to
clamber into the hollow and gloomy re
cesses below. Ye nocturnal shades ! It is
almost impossible to conceive of such bold
ness, but, notwithstanding the calamitous
result of the expedition, the only regret
which now disturbs the brave hero's bosom
is that the ladder was not of the required
length to reach the bottom of the cave !
i —We learn from our daily coternpornry
! that Katie Tyson, the little daughter of
I Mr. Edwin Tyson, of this place, met with
, a painful accident last Tuesday. While
she was playing in the sitting-room the
marble-top centre table was overturned
and it fell with Katie beneath it, the
heavy marble cutting quite a deep ga.-h
across the palm of her left hand nnd al
most severing the little finger. It is fear
ed that Katie will lose the use of the two
last fingers in h'T injured hand, though
the -kill of her physician may avert such
an unfortunate result.
An exchange gives the timely warning
to "beware of coal gas," especially at this
season of the year. Stove pipes and flues
will leak and the annually recurring stories
of persons smothered to death by coal gas
are now making their appearance in the
newspaper- The poison is a most insid
ious one and the temptation is strong these
cold nights to fa-ten up a room so tight
that the gas can't escape and the unwary
sleeper passes unknowingly from the land
of dreams to the unknown land from
whence there is no return.
—The time draws near when the town
will he luminous with the accumulated in
telligence of all the teachers throughout
the county as they assemble in annual in
stitute session. At least half of the young
men of this place are already practicing
their best smile- with which to greet the
lady teachers, and the young ladies of our
town are also preparing themselves in
view of the many gentlemen pedagogues
who will he here.
—We erred in our report of the Lo
gan street fire last week in stating that the
hoso company arrived first upon
tho scene of the conflagration. We are in
formed by a member of the Undine hose
company that the latter organization reach
ed the lire twenty minutes before the form
er and were instrumental in putting it out.
We are glad to make thd amende honorable.
—A musical convention will be held in
St. lVter's Reformed church, Uehersburg,
beginning on Monday, December 27, and
continuing through tho week. It will be
under the supervision of Prof. J. A. Wea
ver, the eminent musical director. Tick
ets admitting the bearer to the entire course,
M cents, or singlo tickets to the grand con
cert on New Years night, 2o cents.

"Russia, which those who are so fortunate
as to hear will find very pleasing and
entertaining.
—AI. Carman had the honor of being
the landlord-in-chief of his father's hotel
for almost a week. His brother Kd. was
absent in Philadelphia and Carman, jtere,

county. AI. made a very acceptable host,

WILLIAM H. 11. BRAINKKO DEAD.—
It will ho remembered that the gentleman
wbon namo form* the subject of the above
announcement was nt one time editor of
the liillrfontr Republican, iorving in that
capacity with an ability unsurpassed in
the history of that journal. He wa* a* ec
centric a* ho wa* able, and will be familiar
ly remembered by many of our citizen* by
the inelegant title of "(ianderlegs." Hi*
literary career ha* been quite extensive
and brilliant a* will be perceived by the
following obituary notice from the New
York Herald of Tuesday :
William 11. 11. Brainerd, an editorial
writer for the Hatty Pioneer, of Dendwood,
died on .Sunday night of inflammation of
the bowels. He was aged about forty. The
deceased was formerly a field correspond
ent of the Now York Herald and for four
year* city editor of the Council Blurt*
Nonpareil. He wa* also Chief of the Fire
Department of that city. Latterly he wa*
the editor of the Sidney, Neb., Telegraph,
and the Custer City Chronicle, was a p*t
master, a Freemason, served four year* in
the army and was mustered out a* Lieu
tenant Colonel of the 137 th New York
State Volunteer*. It is not known where
hi* relative* are. lie wa* born at Bing
hamlon, N. Y.
ltev. John Heaton, of Stato College,
will preach in the Baptist church, this
place, next Sunday evening at 7 o'clock.
Mr. Hoton is an able and effective speak
er, ha* many personal friends in our com
munity and should attract a large attend
ance.
—Worth their weight in gold—Uarry
Cireen'* cigars.
—Tho reputation of Ananias, which was
supposed to rest upon a sure foundation,
bids fair to disappear altogether. For
many years it lias been seriously sbuken by
an unbroken series of bunting stories that
have keen gleuned from different parts of
the country. This season has been unusu
ally prolific in tho accumulation of data
from tho hunting field, and what little of
fame is still left to the Biblical hero threat
ens to be entirely swept away. Last week
our handsome and genial friend, ex-Sena
tor S. It. Pcale, of Lock Haven, put in an
appearance in our midst in all the glory of
high topped hoots, blue shirt and crimson
neck-tie and we were not long in learn
ing that fie had been one of Geo. Bouks'
guests at his camp and that he find devoted
about a week in company with his host and
a large party of friends in trying to exter
minate all tlie doer iri that section. With
his accustomed modesty the Senator refus
ed to speak of his own exploits with the
gun, hut lie volunteered the following in
formation, the truth of which ho vouches
for : Reuben Ktters, one of the Senator's
party, shot four deer at only two shots.
He u.-rd a Sharp's rifle and in the first shot
struck one deer through tho shoulder, arid
the bullet passed clear through and hit its
ma to in the head, instantly killing both.
On Wednesday of last week Mr. Ktters
repeated this performance. This ought to
have sulisfied a reasonable man, but Mr.
Ktters proceeded, on last Thursday, to
eclipse hi- previous exploits. He discov
ered a buck, a doe and a fawn coming
down the mountain. II- first shot the doe
then tli- buck and fawn in rapid succession.
Wo give this literally as it came from
Senator lb-ale and start it on its travels as I
the bo-s story of the campaign. We have
no doubt of its entire truth. It was certainly 1
a wonderful exhibition of nerve and skill. '
I Senator lb-ale speaks in high terms <>f the
good tune he had and will re-t until the
i next sea-on opens.
i —Having had occasion to make a pur
- base of bread one day last week, it wa
our fortuno to drop into the bakery of our
friend Mr. Smith, in Bush's Arcade. We
can speak advisedly therefore of the quali- j
ty of the bread soM to us f,\- Mr. Smith, i
It was just splendid. In addition to the
finest (rest) bread, rolls, Ac-., sold every
day at that establishment, full line- <,f tin
finest confectioneries ami fresh oysters
are kept constantly on hand, and persons
patronizing Mr. Smith will find hirn to be
a fair dc-ab-r and a gentleman well worthy !
of patronage. We may add in connection !
with this notice of Smith's bakery, that
the flour he uses is furnished by that ex
cellent miller, J. N. Van Ormer, who !
never put* out anything in the way of flour
that is not satisfactory to his customers.
—lt was announced Ih-1 week that Mr.
•I. C. I". V hairy, of the Clinton Drmorrat, I
was quite ill. We are plea-el to notice
an announcement in the Lock Haven '
Journal that he is somewhat better. Mr.
Whalcy has been sorely afflicted for a long
time, arid it would he an extreme pleasure
to i.n many friends everywhere to learn of
hi* complete restoration to health.
—A. Sweney own* a beautiful setter
ipup, and his son, a bright little fellow of
■two years, insists that the dog shall be
called "Hancock." Little Charlie wa- an
enthusiastic Hancock man throughout the
pampaign, and, like a true Democrat, de
clines to think his defoat linal. He is ;
determined to perpetuate the name of the !
i lero of Gettysburg if he ha* to exhaust j
i> II the dogs in the county.
—The decomposed body of II man wa*
peontly discovered by hunters in Clear
' eld county. Investigation shows it to be
' Jo body of James McLaughlin, of Brock-
ayvillo, Jefferson county. Tho man un
pubtedly died by hid own hand. Almost
thousand dollar* in money and a gold
itch were discovered on hi* person.
Mrs. Robert Smith, of Burnside town
?p, Clearfield county, recently visited
me relatives in Cherry hill township, In

i her two months-old child and carri<d
iwith her. When she arrived at her
(tination sho was horrified to see that
f child was smothered to death.

"THE STAR IN THE EART."— rioro IS
something very pretty unci interesting
about the attractions which will noon be
vieible in the starry Armament. "Wocopy
it from the Altoona Tribunr •
Cassiopeia, which may bo recognized by
a zigzag row of live bright stars, shaped
like a section of a rail fence, overhead
about H o'clock, is particularly interesting,
because there is reason to expect that the
wonderful flaming star of Ifi72, called the
Pilgrim, will soon blaze out again in this
constellation. Tycho lirahn, the astrono
mer, says that this star sprang forth in its
full splendor in a spot where he was sure
there was no star an hour before. 11 was so
bright as to he visible at noonday. In
1204 a new star appeared and disappeared
near the same place, and in M similar
phenomenon wa- observed. So, if these
appearances are periodical, its return rnav
be looked for any time from now until I*'.o.
Hy calculating backward it will be seen
that an appearance of this star would be due
about the beginning of the Christian era.
and the astrologers of Tychos time said
j the new star was the same that the Magi
J raw at the birth of Christ. Ho they prc
, dieted that the last judgment was at hand.
! A reappearance of the Pilgrim in our day
j would cause no such alarm, but it would
j make a profound sensation among the as
tronomers for scientific reasons.
SANTA CI.AIV ,STOKKll<ll>K —Children
j under ten years of a>'c are not expected to
[ read this article, because we are going to
reveal the whereabouts of Santa Claus

not know anything about that. There is

window of which are three superb dolls,

its eclectic features, discussing society,

As I have placed all my means in the
reorganized enterprise, and projn.se to de
vote all my time to it, I have no hesitation
in asking my personal and j-olitical friends
to give me the ln-nefit of their jiromj-t and
active co-operation. When we recollect
that over 7'i,000 votes were cast for Gen
eral Hancock in the c itv of Philadelphia
alone, on the 'J) ~f November, and in
Pennsylvania 400,<t00, Hiid in the country
at large about five million of votes, there
ought to be a ready and liberal response to
the scheme of an Independent Democratic
weekly paper of the highest class in Phil
adelphia.
The hour of Democratic defeat, procured
by open purchase of tho suffrage, and by
deliberate intimidation of tho dependent
