nouncement of the world ending in No
vember.
—ln the case of Father Stack vs. Bish

court* have been affirmed. This decision
defeats Father Slack and set* at rest a case
that ba* been in litigation for a long term
of years.
—"Never milk while the cow is eating,"
i* the advice of a bucolic contemporary.
Judging from the character of much of
the milk that comes to market it would be
more to the point never to milk while the
cow i* drinking.
—Loeb's have within the last few days
been receiving car loads of goods and are
daily adding to their immense stock, for
they are determined to supply the wante
of their friends and customers. We woold

selves within the last few year* a reputa
tion for telling the beet ready-made cloth

endeavors to procure a good lilting and
well made garment. Their sales have
been so largo in Ibis particular line that
Messrs. Stein, Adlor A Co., of Rochester,
have givon thein the exclusive salo of their
goods. Persons who have purchased these
goods once do not want their moasuro
taken by any merchant tailor, for tbey
give perfect satisfaction in all respects.
—Tho senior editor of the DEMOCRAT
returns bis thanks to lion. O. It. Ilarretl
for his kindly remembrance of him in
connection with tho fair now in progress
in Clearfield. Nothing would have given
nim more pleasure than to have renewed
his acquaintance with his old friends in
Clearfield county, but pressing business en
gagements make it impossible. The fair

cess. When such men as Judge Barrett
take the helm success comes as a matter of
course.
—A man with legs came down from tho
Bald Eagle ridges to see Duprcr. A Bene
dict's minstrels on Tuesday evening. Ho
sat on the edge of the gallery with his
pedal extremities hanging down in full
view of ihe audience, lie had evidently
read about hanging your banners on tho
outer walls and be presented tho dirtiest
pair of legs ever seen sn Bellefonte. His
pantaloons gracefully retired above his
knee* so as to givo full scope to tho accu
mulated dirt of many months, which en
tirely robbed hi* legs of their original An
glo-Saxon whiteness.

stove, the "Pioneer," is for sale only by
Wilson, McParlane A Co. All superfluous
ornamentation ha* been dispensed with to
secure a first-class kitchen stove. Fur
weight, strength and durability it cannot
be surpassed. In purchasing this stove

what is far better and what you need in a
cook stove—a good, reliable baker and
cook.
—lt is said that thirty persons in a
small town in Michigan were poisoned re

upon which Brookville looks over the
surrounding country to the dead level of
the .Susquehanna.
—Luck is ever waiting for something to
turn ap. Labor, with keen eye* and a
strong will, will turn up something. Luck
lies in bed and wishes the postman would
bring him the news of a legacy. Labor
turns out at 6 o'clock and, with busy pen
and ringing hammer, lays the foundation
of a competence. Luck whines; labor
whistle*. Luck reiiee on chance; labor on
character and energy.
—Out of a hundred men who enter a
whisky shop only a very small percentage
quaff the goblet. The rest go to find out
the eiact shortage on the wheat crop, the
fluctuations in bank stocks, and various
other things; and if they happen to wipe
their mouths as they come out it is an in
voluntary movement for wbich they can
no mora be held responsible than a year
ling babe.

—Tho following wo copy from the York
Evening Dispatch of loot Friday. The
Mr. McKeover mentioned in the article
quoted below wei formerly tt clerk el the
Brockurhuff iloue hero end subsequently
it* manager, lie it well known in Belle
fonts, having left here but recently:
"Sheriff Atiand yeatcrday arrived in
York with William McKeever end Wil
liam Hpahr, of Dillsburg, charged with
assault end battery and false Tmprlson
munt. They both entered into recognis
ance for their ap|>earance when wanted.
The circumstance* of the case are as fol
lows: On the 29th of September, it ia al
leged, Mrs. Burnt/., a widow, residing in
Carlisle, with her von Hurley, aged about
14, vivited her brother-in-law, George I*.
Weaver, residing in York county, about
three mile* above Dillsburg. A few days
after McKeever appeared at vhe house ro
nr-senting that he was sent by Governor
iloyt to see her son and ascertain how
large he wa*. When the boy was pro
duced McKeever attempted to arrest him,
saying that bo hold a warrant from the
Governor, but not producing it. Tho lad
niado his escape and ran into the moun
tain brush, where he was pursued and
caught by McKeever, who handculfcd him
and carried him back to the house. There,
when hi* mother wanted to change the
boy's clothes, McKeever himself went up
stairs, nut on the boy's best suit and scat
tered the ether clothing about the room,
iln then took young Barnts in his buggv
to tho depot at Dillsburg and went away
with him on the train. McKeever re
turned to Dillsburg in a few days but
without the boy, who has not yet been
heard from, and hi* whereabouts are un
known. The lad is said to be tbo sole
heir to properly worth $30,000, The war
rants for arrest were issued by Justice
Beaverson.''
—Tho Indie* "God blew them" are more
lovely this fall than ever before. They
look sweet enough in their rich costumes
which betoken the near approach of win
ter, to be transplanted bodily to the ihorea
of the beautiful river. But then we can't
sparo them. When the thermometer in
our own sanctum i* endeavoring to con
vince u* that it never even hinted at
warmth, one of these terrestrial angel* in
trapping* of warmest fur passes along
and immediately wo are hle*ed by the
heat of the tropica. Our numbed flnger*
tingle and our frosen brow burn* with the
glow of awakened geniu*. It i* the chief
duty of a woman to be beautiful, and
never have our fair *i*lert and cousins and
aunt* *o admirably met their obligation.
The mo*t beautiful living pictura* wo have
ever teen are our ladiet in the gorgeou*
color* and subdued (bade which blend* in
their newly donned fall costume*. And
then the uniurpassod bloom of the cheek ;
the elasticity of the step ; the bounding
gracefulness of those mundane sylphs, and
—we give it up. One of the above de
scription just pasted down Bishop stis-et
and our pencil *lip|>ed from our nervelcat
flnger*.

—The professor of geology in the Penn
sylvania State College at Gettysburg is at
present in Bellefonte accompanied by
twenty-five of bis students. The professor
is the guest of Adam Moy, Esq., a gradu
ate of the college, while the young gentle
men are quartered at the Bush House.
These hilarious searchers after knowledge
are here for the purpose of Investigating
from a scientific standpoint the iron for
mation of Centre county, and with this
idea are visiting the minebanks about
Bellefonte. They came Into town yester
day morning about 0 o'clock from a visit
to the Spring township banks tinging a
rollicking college song, while the professor
and Mr. Hoy decorously brought up the
rear. They will remain several days.
—lt is said upon good authority that
General James A. Beaver, of Bellefonte;
William V. Emery, of Williamsport, and
Samuel Aucbenbaugh, of the Crescent
nail works, have formed a copartnership
and will begin at an early day the erec
tion of nail and iron works at Bellefonte.
This is gratifying intelligence and we
hope there is no mistake in it. It Is said
that the gentlemen comprising the Arm
have already gone to Buffalo for the pur
pose of purchasing the necessary tnachin

—Mr. Teller has opened his bowling
alley in the basement of the Bush House.
As soon at practicnbla hs will add a bil
liard room and shooting gallery. There
is no more healthy or Invigorating amuse
ment than rolling tenpins, and Mr. Tel
ler, with a proper appreciation of the love
the ladies have for this sport, has set
aside two days In the week on which no
one but ladlee and their eeoorta will be ad
mitted to the room.
—An Item going the rounds of oar ex
changee slating that a new example fire

is a New York law and of course doe* not
apply to Pennsylvania.
—Lyon A Co. have an elegant line of
new-etyie guntlemon'* ulsters at f?.fiO and
from that up.
PI.EABAXT GAP JOTTIXOB Many fun
ny things have happened since my last
communication to the DEMOCRAT. Among
tho most noteworthy, the Owl has been
among us. Homo of our folks had their
characters well ventilated, but the reporter
was rather partial. He only referred to
those he did not like ; and be was not care
ful in covering bis tracks, for the most
ignorant know who the writer wa*. But
there is always allowance to be made for
him. He is a model of perfection himself,
and his daily walk, though very slow,
prove* that ho is free from reproach. "He
that is without sic let him cast the first
stone," is his motto.
Our Republican friend* have now con
solidated their force* against T. J. Durikle.
They arecounting largely for Andy. They
expect to roll up a largo majority for blm,
but the trouble is they do not know where
their vote will come from, fur all the vo
ters of this place are well acquainted with
him and they cannot see why they should
vote for Mr. Gregg for they all know he
would bo the lait man to vote fur a Demo
crat. Will our leading Republicans givo
us some good reason why Mr. G. merit*
the support of any honest Democrat ?
Surely his past record doe* not command
the respoct of the Democratic voters of
Spring or any other township. True we
havo a few bolters, but that will not make
any material difference when the vote is
counted. With all the aid that o*ir dis
satisfied Democrats can give, it will not
make a difference of half a dozen vote*.
Wo aro after you boys and will bo with
you till after the election.
Mr. J. M. Furey's bouse is nearing com
pletion ; so is Mr. Haag's new grist mill-
Soon we will bo able to get our milling
done close to home.
Mr. Charles From, son of John From,
was thrown from the stable door by an
unruly cow and bad his arm broken.
Mr*. J. 11. Musser left for the far West
a few days ago ; now John is felling lone

TII* FAIR —The annual exhibition of
the Ccgtre County Agricultural Society
passed off last week in a manner satisfac
tory at least to the management. We are
informed that financially it was a success,
but wc are sorry to say tbal, outside of tbe
trials of speed between some very flno
horses, tbe Exhibition was not of a charac
ter to deserve faveiablecomment. Indeed,
tbe paucity of exhibit* elicited universal re.
msrk and was the cause of much unfavora
ble comment. UDies* more interest is taken
by our people in making a creditable dis.
play the Agricultural Society will And lit
tle encouragement in making provision for
these yearly meeting*. Tbe few exhibit*
on tbe ground were of a very high order,
but their general excellence could not dis
guise the fact tbat the interest of our far
mers, artisans, merchant* and manufactur
er* has been steadily waning, that year by
year the exhibition has gradually deterior
ated. Wo will not attempt to give a de
scription of the exhibit* or a full Recount
of the fair. A* soon as the premiums are
awarded we will take occasion to lay tbe
list before our reader*. The chief inter
est appeared to centre in the fast horse*
that on Thursday and Friday displayed
their ipssd to the infinite satisfaction of all
lovers of good racing.
Tbe attendance on Thutsday was very
large, but did not compare with tbat of the
corresponding day in past year*. On Fri
day there were a goodly number of people
present who were rewarded by seeing some
very fine trotting.
Till SKCXKTARTSHir Of THE T. M. C.
A.—We hi< not much space to d*olt
to this subject, but heartily echo the son
timenu recently expressed by the Daily
Sean. We are surprised that the mana
gers of the Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation should entertain the idea of secur
ing the services of a young man from
abroad for the position of general secre
tary when there are so many well-quell
fled, Christian young gentlemen in our
midst If we were to express our opinion
we would certainly recommend the one
who has for several years post acted in
that capacity, if he will accept the posi
tion. Why not elect Mr. Newton 8.
Bailey? Me is competent and certainly
worthy.

A Card.
To the Voters of Centre County:
It is not a pleasant duty to write cards,
but understanding that certain parties are
industriously circulating stories deroga
tory to my private character, integrity,
Qualifications and offl lal intentions, 1
deem it nothing more than what is due to
tho party that honored me with iu nomi
nation and to myself to thus publicly take
notice of thern.
A* to rny private character, habits, Ac ,
which have been availed, I can only refer
those who do not know me to the citizens
of the township in which I wa* born and
havo since resided (Howard and Rush) and
also to any citizen of the county to whom
I am personally known, feeling confident
that their verdict will prove tho falsity of
the charge* and the malicious intent with
which they are circulated.
As to the story that I have promised
the deputy sheriffalty to this, that or the
other man I desire to brand it as an inters
tvmal falsehood. I'httre matte no pledge* of
any kind to any one, nor do / propose to;
only to promise to the people of the county
that if elected 1 will, to the best of my
ability, fulfill the duties of Sheriff of the
county impartially, faithfully and to the
best interests of the people generally. Very
respectfully, TboMA* J. Dcxxti.

PITTSBI A, October 3, 1881.
To the lion. Orange Noble—Dear Sir:
Wo have fteen authorized bjr the Demo
cratic Hiale Convention which met at
Williamsoort OD the iJHih day of Hep
teraber last to formally announce to
you the action of that bo<ly in nomina
ting you to the important office of Htate
Treasurer of Pennsylvania.
It inunt be a source of gratification
| for you to know that your selection by
tbe convention aa a standard f>earer of
the party.and tbe representative of its
principle* m the present campaign was
made (rin a laige number ol the moat
reputable gentlemen of the Htate, the
nomination of any one of whom would
have reflected credit upon the party.
It ia also a fact worthy of note that
in these 11 inee of {Kilitical jugglery your
nomination was uninfluenced by fac
tion. corrupt combinations or boss dic
tation, which are ever abhorrent to
Democratic ideas, but was accom
plished by the reprentatives of the
party, acting freely in the exercise of
their judgment as to its best intereals
and the will of the majority thus ex
pressed, finally ratified by the unani
mous voice of the convention.
With every reasonable prospect of
success, and sustained as you will be by
a united party, you come before the
people under the most auspicious cir
cumetarices and enter upon the race
without any weight or hindrance to be
set your w-iy to ultimate succeas.
And in the event of eiection we are
assured that the solemn pledges made
by the convention to the people, in the
resolutions adopted, will i>e by you re
deemed; that you wilt hold the office
at a sacred trust from the |>eople; and
that the rigid administration, of the
finances of the State inaugurated by
you will mark the end of the jiower
snd influence of the''Treasury ring" in
Pennsylvania.
Very truly your obedient servant*,
fixoaoc W. MILLIE,
(REOKUE McOowsx,

I.KIR, October 10, 1881.
George W. Miller, George Mc-
Gown, W. J. I'.retjrmn. P. F. Connolly
and R E. Jame*. Cominittee—Gentle
men: Your letter formally notifying
me of my nomination lor State Treas
urer by the ree-nt Democratic Stale
Convention at Wj|li*m|K>rt would bare
tieeo *nw-red aoober but for unavoid
able absence from home.
You ay truly that it is a high com
(■limenl to bare liern made the nominee
when ao many worthy gentlemen were
competitor* for the |>oition. 1 am
gratified to know that the rivalry for
the nomination was of the mot! friend
ly character both before and during
i he session* of the convention, and as
sure you that, if the choice had fallen
upon any other one of the candidates,
my friend* and myself would have given
him a ready and active support. The
reflection to which you so appropriate
ly reter, that the nomination "was un
influenced by faction, corrupt combina
tion* or boss dictation," add* very
much to my appreciation of the honor.
1 accept the nomination with a full
understanding of the re*pon*ibili!y it
impose*, and pledge myself that if the
confidence repoed in me by the con
ventian i* ratified by the people they
shall not be disappointed in their just
expectations. The treasury will be ad
ministered as "a sacred trust from the
people;" care will be taken to employ
none hut pure, competent and trust
worthy men; the record* of the office
will alwsy* be opeu for the most ngid
scrutiny; the corrupt "ring*" will he
discountenanced, and the constant ef
fort will be to reduce expense*, collect
the revenues impartially and in every
way possible to promote the interests
of the Slate. Not a dollar that doe*
not legimitely belong to me shall be ta
ken a* a part of the compensation of
the office.
The platform is one of the boldest
and soundest that has been adopted by
a convention of any party in Pennsyl
vania lot many years. Those portions
especislly which relate to the rights,
duties and control of the great corpor
ations are in accord with my life-long
convictions, and 1 cannot doubt that
they will be approved by the people.
While 1 would not take from any cor-
C ration a single right that 'properly
longs to it I insist, in common with
most of the business men, farmers and
mechanics of the State, that none shall
be above the law, that monopolies must
not be tolerated and that the "greatest
good of the greatest number" mutt be
the supreme object of the government.
Having made no pledge* of pstronag*
during the canvass for the nomination,
and being determined to continue the
same policy until the close of the cam
paign, I will be free, in the event of
my election, to make such appoint
ments as will best advanoe the princi
ples shots stated. 1 have ao enemies
to punish and will know no factions in
the selection of my subordinate*.
With thanks to the oonvenvicw and
kind reg*rda for each of the committee,
I am your* truly, Oasaot NOBLE.
