—lt it said that September last was tho
warmest known for sixteen years.
—The largest stock of drtws goods ever
brought to Centre county is now opened at
Loeb's.
—You don't get cigars like Harry
Green's at any other place in town. Go
to Green.
—The finest stock of underclothing in
the town can be bought tho cheapest at
Lewin's, Philadelphia Branch.
—Brilliantly colored forest leave* will
be scarce this fall. The dry weather dried
up tho sap in the foliage before the frost
had time to get its work in.
—Our merchants should remember that
a few dollars spent in judicious advertis
ing may greatly increase their trade and,
consequently, their profits.
—The standard rail used by tho Penn
sylvania railroad company weighs sixty
seven pounds to the yard on the main line
line and sixty pounds to the yard on tbo
branch roads.
—The very best production that can be
bad from first class stock and excellent
workmanship in boots and shoes, at prices
no higher than common eastern trash, are
now open and for sale by 8. Sc A. Loeb.
—Yennor is out with a prediction that a
warm wave will generally prevail this
winter, and he likewise prophesied four or
five months ago that the coming December
would be the warmest ever known in this
country.
—Call and examine the stock of ranges
and cook stoves at Wilson, McFarlane &
Co's ; also their lino of single and double
heaters. They have for sale the Welcome
Home double heater, which has been
thoroughly and satisfactorily tested in this
community.
—Many persons iron towels, fold them
and place them away before they aro dry.
This is an error, and sometimes leads to re
sults not expected. In this condition there
U a mould which thus forms upon them,
one-variety of which causes a skin disease
known as ringworm.
—An enterprising Altoona paper speaks
of the new building of tho Centre County
Banking Company here as being "nearly
completed." The Altoona paper is entirely
too rapid in it* conclusions, as the proposed
building is not yet "nearly completed"—
sot by a Dern-ed sight!
—An exchange says that the soot falling
on the carpet from open chimneys or from
carelessly handled stovepipe* if covered
thickly with salt can be brushed up with
out damage to the carpet. As the season
for putting up stoves has come the above
may be of profit to housewives.
—Mr. James A. Keller, secretary of Po
mona Grange, requests u* to announce that
• meeting of that organisation will be
beld at Centre Halt on Thursday, Nov.
10, when and where everybody interested
in. the affairs for the conduct of which the
grange was organised can attend.
—Traveling men, especially those whose
route* lie through our Southern States,
should always provide themselves with
Green's No. 1 and 2 Liver Pills if they
would keep clear of all malarial disease*.
They are without exception the best family
medicine ever offered to the public.
—lt is not going to be very expensive to
dress well Ibis winter. Ladies can no
longer put twenty-five or thirty yards of
•ilk into a dress, for they are to be very
plain, mostly embroidered with chenille or
beads, and must clear the ground several
inches, according to the fool of the wearer.
—lf the charges of "Horatio" against
John I. Rankin, one of the Republican
candidates for County Commissioner—ap
pearing in our morning contemporary last
Monday—are true there is certainly a foul
weather look in the candidate's political
atmosphere. "Horatio" predicts that Mr
Rankin, If his party does what it should
do, will not receive one hundred Republi
can votes.
—Our morning contemporary would
knee the people believe thet by visiting
the performance of Helen Potter's Pleiades
they will enjoy n rare drametic entertain
ment. The company gives nothing of the
sort; It is, in feet, simply a refined variety
•how, and, according to the statement of a
Bellefonte gentleman who saw the Pleiades
In Philadelphia last week, the Swedish la
dies' quartette, advertised as a special at
traction, was not with the company at all
—at least be did not see or hear those
I 'sweet singers."
—Mr. A. A. Heuke, connected with the
Fidelity Ufa insurance company of Phila
delphia—an unusually inexpensive and
eminently reliable organisation—was in
town last week looking after the interests
of his company with the idea of establisb
lUhir.g an agency here. He is this week
In Lock Haven and will spend next week
In Bellefonte, when it is probsblh definite
steps will be taken In regard to the agen
cy. Hon. John B, Linn, of this piece, and
General Jeaee Merrill, of Lock Haven, are
Comprised In the membership of the Board
of Local Trustees, which Is of itself a re
commendation,
—The little 3-year-old daughter of John
Dunkelbarger, living at Plsasant Gap,
while pitying the other day placed a grain
of corn in hor mouth. Somehow it got
into her throat, where it stuck, and before
a physician could bo summoned the little
jriri wii strangled to death. The parent'
wero particularly affected by their unu'ual
and peculiar bereavement. I*. B.—Since
tho foregoing was written it ha* been
learned that Mr. Dunkelbarger roasted
ome corn for her children on Thursday
afternoon, and tho child, whole name was
Lucy, waa given a portion. Soon after be
began vomiting violently and * thought
to bo choking to death. The mother suc
ceeded, a* *ho believed, in removing tho
obstruction, but tho relief was only tempo
rary. The child showed no symptoms of
distress during the night, slept soundly and
ate a hearty breakfast. Soon after vomit
ing and coughing returned, and the spasms
were so violent that the little girl died in a
very short time.
—Wo nro always happy to receive art
works and appreciate a line picture wheth
er it bo in oil or on steel. Hut the speci
men sent us yesterday of what was no
doubt a superior work on steel of tho
engraver's art arrived in such a horribly
dilapidated condition that no appreciative
panegyric could in justice bo pronouncod_
Tho picture, which was doubtless of a very
pretty subject—judging frotn the ragged
portion received here—arrived with the
wooden roller broken in two and but half
tho engraving clinging to it. Wo are of
course much obliged to tbo Messrs. Peter
son, tho Philadelphia magazine publishers
and booksellers, for their intended courte
sy, but if this is indicative of the fate of
succeeding works of art to our address
through the mail we'd prefer to have them
sent by freight.
—The boy orator, Kalph Bingham, give#
universal satisfaction. Bead these te-timo
nials: New York (Upper, March 1, 1879:
"Ilis versatility, memory and power of
imitation would be remarkable in any one,
arid it is truly wonderful that a lad of bis
years should display talents and abilities
that many a professional might well be
proud of. If thero ever was a prodigy he
certainly is one." Baltimore American :
"Another century will probably go by be
fore such another boy is likely to appear
on earth." Washington Republican : "His
genius is wonderful, and he will doubtless
receive ovation* wherever ho goes."
You will shortly be complied to buy
your winter clothing. Before deciding on

Rochester manufacturers, Messrs. .Stein,

did much to build up the Urge demand of
this very *u|.erior grade of clothing.
—Captain Amos Mullen, commanding

MORE AIIOUT THK NEW NITTAHY VAL
LEY- RAILROAD.— The new Nittany Val
ley railroad, to which alluiiun waa made
last wook, la a fixed fact, a* a chatter waa
granted on Tueaday laal and waa brought
to Bellefonte by Mr. Adain Hoy. The
road ia to extend a dlatanco of a little more
thanithree tnilea from a point near (telle
(onto to the Annealy ore bank, and privi
leges to build varioua branchea to meet the
wanla of the company are conceded. The
capital atock ia S26,UCO, which ia expected
aoon to be increaaed, and officers are a*
followa: Preaident, Hobert Valentine; Sec
retary and Treasurer, Harry 0. Valentine;
Chief Engineer and Bu|>erintendenl,\V. J.
Nichols; Directors, Jacob I). Valentine,
George Valentine, A. S. Valentino, W. J.
Nichols, Adam Hoy, John P. Harris.
Our morning contemporary has the fol
lowing as to the route: "Tbo survey for
the new road has already been completed
under the management of Superintendent
Nichols, and as near as we can learn—and
wu get our information from one of the di
rectors of the company—will connect with
the Uald Eagle Valley road at the meadow
just below town,oppositeCowdrick's brick
yard. From thia point the road starts, and
a substantial bridge will span Spring creek
and carry tho road over to Armor's mead
ow, whence it will take up through tho ra
vino and along a small stream of water
running down through the hollow. The
line will cross the Jacksonville road on
tho farm of ex-Sheriff Kline, about a mile
below town, from whence it again takes
through a hollow and a strip of wood,
coming out near the farm house of Mr.
James Curtin and making straight for the
Anncsly ore bank, a short distance beluw
this point, and which fur the present will
be the terminus of the road."
Already money enough I* subscribed to
carry tho road thui far, and it I* the inten
tion to continue the line to llublersburg,
which ia claimed to be in the heart of the
richest hematite ore deposit in the Slate,
juet a* oon as sufficient slock is subscribed
to warrant the undertaking. Branches
will be built connecting Curtin's, Hoy's
and tho Itiillefonie Ore Companies with
the main line, and also tho sereral banks
of the Messrs. Valentine. It was the com
pany's original intention t begin the con
struction of the road at once, but as some
very unexpected and annoying obstacles
have been encountered within the past few
days by the management it is not at all
probable that the building of the load will
be commenced until spring. The Valen
tines appear to be the leading movers in
this, new and very commendable enter
prise, as they have important interests at
slake. One of the members of that firm
slated the other day that for years tbey
had been greatly exorcised to know bow to
get their supply of ore from their several
banks. Hauling It with teams was both
expensive and uncertain, but it is hoped
that the proposed new arrangement will
overcome this perplexing difficulty. Ho
further elated that it should be understood
from the outset that the new road was not
to be built solely in the interest of any Arm
or corporation, hut that it was intended to
bo a public improvement for the public
good, and that it was hoped the people of
iieilefonte more particularly would reap a
great benefit in many different ways.
The new road, it seems, will not be used
exclusively for carrying ore, but a passen
ger car will be attached to all trains, and.
as the road is to pass quite a number of vil
lages in the valley, there is no doubt that
the people thereof will take liberal advan
tage of the new m-ans of transportation
offered. We sincerely wish the new cor
poration abundant success.

MR. PEAI.E SXII TUB LIHEL SUIT.— The
U'alrhtnan of last week took occasion to
arraign the DEMOCRAT for its article on
tho Peale-Humet libel suit, and it endeav
ors to convey the idea that what was said
by this pajw-r did great injustice to Mr.
l'ealn. Whether it did or not is of but
minor consequence, inasmuch as the report
waa not printed as the opinion of the DEM
CHAT, which would require only ordinary
intelligence to observe. The affair wa
called to tho notico of our reporter and
prepared for publication ns an item of
news, and not for tho purpose of creating
an opinion favorable or unfavorable to
either side. The l l'afchtnan, however,
avoided presenting any aspect of the case,
contenting itself with an attempt to place
tho DEMOCRAT in a questionable position.
If our reporter had aeon Mr. I'eale at the
time the Humes aspect of the suit wna ob
tained last week he would havo endeavored
to secure Mr. I'eale'* views in reference to
tbe matter for publication in connection
with the story printed in our last edition.
Mr. I'eale arrived in town on Monday of
this week and the same evening our repor
ter called upon him at the office of I'eale
& McKco to learn if he desired to make
arty statement in connection with tbe
pending suit. The gentleman said he
had fell considerably aggrieved at the
lone of the article in some respect*, par
ticularly with the assertion that he had
instituted a libel suit without knowing
whether tho charges of the defendant
could bo proved or not, but he bad after
reflection decided that he would say noth
ing upon the subject for publication, and
he requested that nothing further be
printed bearing on the subject of tho libel
suit, although he had no objection to the
publication of the substance of the conver
sation taking place at tbe time. He said
ho was perfectly content to abide tho result
of the trial of tbe suit (in a confident
tone;, which will come up at the next
term of court.
Mr. I'eale, it is a pleasure to say, is a
gentleman of high standing and acknowl
edged ability in his profession; has always
commanded the respect and confidence of
every one who knows him, and nothing
could have been further from the intention
of the DEMOCRAT than to do him an injus
tice, or in any way to create prejudice
against him in the suit he hat teen proper
to bring against Mr. Humes.
GOVERNOR Ct'RTIX AT Tin FofR
TKKXTII CAVALRY KKINIOK.— The sur
viving members of tbe Fourteenth Regi
ment, Pennsylvania cavalry, held a re
union at Eiixabeth, Allegheny county, on
Wednesday, the 1 Oth instant. The attend
ance of veterans was not as large as it
might have been, the regiment in the war
consisting of twelve comjianies, owing to
the distance from the place of meeting
at which so many of the soldiers retid<d.
A most enjoyable and satisfactory meeting
was bad, however, and at the reunion
proper, hel-J in the evening, Hon. Andrew
G. Curtin was introduced to the audience,
being received with a storm of applause
and speaking for tbe greater part of an
hour. His address was, as it always the
case, grandly eloquent and intensely inter
esting. The following extract therefrom
it a tribute to the genius and patriotism of
the American people, and of the influences
which go out to the world from the spirit
of our free institutions :
"The war that came upon us was in
obedience to tbe higher law. It was in
evitable. But after it was over what pros
perity attended us I How we grew and
prospered! Our growth and prosperity
were the marvel of the age : the eyre of
the world were upon us. You all know
how whrn our President was assassina'ed
words of synipathv came from nations of
every clime and from Ihe islands uf the
sea. It was because this is recognised as
the greatest and freest government on
earth. [Applause.] And[,Ood Intends
that It shall be so ; it is tho great law.
These men before you were Hit instru
ments In making it so, and to them you
owe a great debt of gratitude. 1 have said
that we have tho respect of the whole
wcrld. If this be not literally true and
there be nation* whose respect we do not
have, we will yetcompel it I [Applause ]
"We have never been propagandists ol
our ideas of government; it has not hoen
necessary to send out misssonaries to con
vert the world to our way of thinking and
bring In emigrants to people the country.
Our example haa been sufficient, and has
compelled recognition from foreign na
tions. Our example to-day is remoulding
governments the world over, to give the
masses of the people higher and greater
liberty. It has made a republic in France
possible. It haa kindled aspirations in
Irish hearts which will yet compel Eng
land to grant to the Emerald Isle the con
cessions which justice demands she should
have. If not granted voluntarily five mil
lions of sturdy Irishmen will rise in their
might and compel ill [Applause ] It
has shown to Russia tbe blessings of free
dom and has aroused a feeling which will
bring every Ctar who ascends the imperial
throne to a violent death until the people
have their righta. God forbid tnal 1
should justify assassination, but it U the
logic of events and must be."
A NARROW ESCAPE.— On Wcdncedey
of leat week Mr. William G. Carner, son
of Anthony Carner, reaidlng near Quhlera
burg, made a narrow escape from death
while engaged in threshing wheat with a
separator on tha farm ol hia father. By
some means he waa caught in tbe ma
chinery of the separator near the coupling

before be could be extricated from bis
perilous position received severe bruises

Y. M. C. A. NEWS. —Tho annual meet
ing for eloction of officers was held on tost
I" rlday evening. A revised constitution
and by laws were read and considered, and
referred to a committee of fI VB , who were
to report at a meeting of the association to
be held on the 26th of November, and
who were also authorised to take the nec
essary steps to have tho association Incor
poralod. The following officers were elect
ed for the ensuing year, vie; President
D S. Keller ; Vice President, Itcuben E!

ecutive Committee, F. W. Cridor, Abrarn
S. Valentine, W. S. Eeller, F. Potts Green,
Dr. J. W. Rhone and James A. Beaver.
A meeting of the new Executive Com
mittee was held at Col. Keller's office on
Tuesday evening last at which were pre#-
<-nt, D. S. Keller, R. K. Shaffer, A. S
Valentino, Dr. J. W. Rhone, W.B. Zeller,
F. Potts Green, and J. \V. Gephart. The
subjects of electing a General Secretary
and tho opening of the reading rooms were
considered. In the matter of a General
Secretary tbo committee agreed lhat it was
best to leave tho selection of a man for
this position very largely to the judgment
of tho Stale Secretary, Rev. 8 A Taggart,
who was familiar with the necessary quali
fications for the office. In accordance with
this view, tho committee unanimously
elected J. Willard Miller, of Luzerne
county, at present filling the position of
Principal of the High school at Shick
shinny, I'a., and authorized the secretary
pro (em. to correspond with bim and ex
tend a call on behalf of the association.
Action was also taken that will b-ad to the
opening of tbo Young Men'a and Boy's
reading rooms within a week or ten days.
The Roy's Rranch is also moving along
successfully. About 176 names are now
enrolled and tbe average attendance con
tinues at 126. Great interest is manifest
ed in this department over the entertain
ment to be given on Tuesday evening next,
November 1, by Ralph liingham, the Boy
Orator for the benefit of the Branch.
—A young daughter of Thomas Watson,
a farmer residing in the Bald Kagle ridges
a couple of miles from M ilesburg, died a
week ago last Saturday under circum
stance# somewhat enshrouded in mystery.
She was taken with violent retching in the
morning of that day, but the parents for
some reason did not send for a physician.
I)r. Grove, of Miliwburg, passed the house
late in the afternoon, and he was called in
Us see the little girl, who was about 7 years
old, and be found her sinking so surely that
he could express to the parents no hope of
her recovery. The doctor said he could not
successful diagnose the case owing to the
child's weakened and critical condition,
but the complaint at tbe outset resembled
the s \ mptoms of cholera morbus. Tbe
child died about o'clock the same even
ing without, it is said, exhibiting tbe least
evidence of pain. The morning following
the death of the little girl ber younger
brother wa prostrated with scarlet fever,
and the friends of tbe family are now in
clined to believe that it was tbe same dis
ease of a malignant type that U-ok the life
of the girl. The boy was still living when
last beard from.
—One of the detail of Company B to
the Yorktown centennial had a decidedly
unpleasant experience during the passage
of tbe transport across the bay. He was
afflicted wilti a severa attack of seasickness
and all hit rations "came up." Wander
ing along the beach subsequently some of
the Bellefonle soldiers gathered up a sup
ply of nice-looking sbell-fl-h which they
took to be clams. The clams were properly
prepared and the boys gleefully enjoyed a
meal which they thought was mighty com
fortable and good. But in a short time an
unaccountable commotion was kicked up In
their stomachs and the clams "came up"
also, not being accustomed to that sort of
confinement. The "sojers" afterward dis
covered that tbey had been indulging in
that species of doubtful bivalve known as
the "muscle." The detail are of the unani
mous opinion that, in view of discouraging
occurrences that distinguished the excur
sion just ended, they wilt make it conve
nient to absent themselves on the occasion
of the next centennial celebration of tbe
surrender of Cornwallls. The boys think
that if Washington's army at Valley Forge
bad no better accommodations than were
furnished the detail at Yorktown they
must Indeed have suffered.
