an indispensable article to every smoker.
—The grass looks green and beautiful on
iC'tsie of the lawns about town where the (
snow has disappeared.
—T., 11. and 11. stand for Tar, Hon ;
and Bloodroot (Green's, of course), the J
be*t cough remedy in the market.
—Don't dispciuo aith underclothing yet,
but buy some that is exactly suitable to
the sea on ut the Philadelphia Branch.
■■—Trout fl.hing season begins to mor
row. When you go fl-hing take a huif
dozen of Harry Green's cigars in your
pocket.
—Rumor say* that a thousand ton* of ,
coal per day will be run o\> r the Bella
fonte & Snow Shoe branch ot the 1% nnji
vania railroad during this summer.
—Last Sunday night a monster whale
wa* carried through Altoona on it* way to
Philadelphia to be places! on exhibition.
It weigh* *o,ooo pound* and ha* a mouth
fourteen feet long with a breadth of six
faet.
—The regular monthly meeting of the
Temperance Union of Bellafonte will be
held this ovening in the Young Men's
Christian Association room. There should
be a large attendance of tho friends of
temperance.
—The Normal Class, which hat Iwen i
meeting in the A". M. C. A. room during
the winter, held its concluding session last
Monday night. These gatherings have
proved so instructive that arrangement*
were made to renew them next winter,
which we hope they will be successful in
doing.
—Tho National Guard of Pennsylvania
has a freah feather in its cap since return
ing from Washington. The six thousand
citizen soldiers who took part in the grand
parade attracted universal attention. If

of Company B, this place. n<> wonder they ;
are admired. There's Doc Geissinger and
Charley Schroeder, for instance.
Weil informed persons think that the :
recent assassination of the Czar forebode*
evil to Russia. It would be almost impos
sible for an event to occur so detrimental
to the intercuts of Bellefontc as the Czar's
death is to the Russian realm, unless the
great grocery store of Sechler A Co. should
cease to ell the splendid groceries for
which it has so long been famous. Such a
calamity would be awful.
—A fire broke out in the ba*ement of
tke Stale College building on Tuesday
night of last week, but wa* extinguished
before it had gained much headway. It
wa* in cloae proximity to the oil tank, and ,
if it had reached that conservator of In- '
flammable liquid the glorious institution !
known as State College would have gone
to meet IU sister asylum at Danville. We
are glad that huge building did not become
a prey to the flame* and hope it will resist
every other attack a* successfully.
—The curbstone markets will begin next
Saturday morning, April 2. The weather
has now become warm enough to enable
the farmer* to spend an hour in the |xm
air without danger of freezing to death,
and if they have anything they desire to

market next Saturday morning, wbcre
they will doubtlaes meet many person* who
