The safe was removed to the Klatform and an attempt was made to drill Shots through the top, evidently with the Hitention of using powder to blow it open. Efter drilling for some time the thieves Bmiiiaed their purpose, and the safe was Bund the next morning unopened, and the Hbly damage done was the breaking off of ■e combination lock. Tn BKLLKPONTB GLASS WORKB TO BE REVIVED.—After an immense doal of speculation its to the future of the gias* works, wbicb have been deserted and idle for years, arrangements have boon ■ Hoc tod by which tbe works wilt resume opera tions. Tbere bas been a great lot of talk for some time past about this desideratum being accomplished, but nearly everybody was accustomed to bearing such talus and almost invariably elevated tboir noses in derision of the idea that the works would evor bo revived. However, a couple of gentlemen, strangors to tbis locality, have been in town for a few days looking into tho matter, and the result was that on Mon day morning, at a conference of the parties concerned, tho works wore transferred to R. Rheine, of Baltimore, and Richard Da vis, of Detroit. Repairs were begun at the works on Tuesday morning, and Mr. Davis says tho works will be running and tbo tiret glass made on the evening of next Sun day a week. The furnaces at present in the works, Mr. Davis said to our reporter,will be utilized and permitted to romain until July, when they will be replaced wilb new furnaces, including blowing furnaces, "on the European plan." Tbo forco of em ployes will consist of ten blowers and ten gatherers, three flatteners, four helpers, five cutters and a number of laborers—in all about sixty persons. These men have all Leon elsewhere, and will arrivo by the dale of opening. Mr. Davis says of their character that they are all sober, steady and intelligent men, and that each blower is capable of making ten boxes of glass per day ; otherwise, he intimated, he would not have them at all. The new proprietors of the glass works have succeeded in effecting arrangements materially different from those which, it is said, embarrassed and hindered lessees for merly. They have secured complete and undisputed control of tho entire property and fixtures by purchase, and no Belle fonte capitalist will bo interested in the en terprise or possess the slightest power hi venture suggestions to or interfere with the management in any particular. As such seems to have been the bane of these works i heretofore, tbis positive prohibition was certainly a wise provision on the part of j the new proprietors. Tbe terms to the i management are unusually easy and satis and Messrs. Rheine and Davis express no doubt as to tbe success of tbe works—in fact are positive of the most encouraging results—and they insist the failure* of tbe past were solely attributable to very poor management. It is confidently asserted by the propri etors that the works will be able to raanu faeture fifty one-hundred-feet boxes of glass daily, or two hundred and fifty boxes per week of five days, which is all tbe lime that can be devoted to tbo actual mak ing of glass. Mr. Davis bas had a lifetime of practical experience as a glassblower while his partuer, Mr. Rheine, is an exten sive dealer in glass in the monumental city. Mr. Davis will be tbo sole superin tendent of the works, and he understands the whole business thorougly and in every particular. Mr. Davis desires through tho DEMO CRAT to express his hearty thanks for the kind and courteous framed by j himself and Mr. Rheine at Bfßiils of General Reaver and Mr. Adolfh Loeb,with whom tbe negotiations for the glass works were conducted.

ALL HALLOW K'KX—ITX OHIO IN, CUA TOMB, ETC.— Thdhgh it MAY be A little late for an article on Hallow E'en, now that the occasion ha* pa**od by, we thluk that a brier dl*ortalion on "The Witche*' Night," a* it i* often denominated, and Iho cu*tom* that prevail once a year on tbo night of the Blat of October, will prove interesting to our reader*. Hallow E'en, then, i* the night when witche* are tup po*ed to walk abroad and (upernalural in fluonces prevail in the viiible and Invisible world. In the United Kingdom, particu larly in Scotland and Ireland, it i* a great day, and many old Iriah and Hcolch-Iri*h people here who sp>ent their early day* thore will remember with pleasure the in terest with which thry looked for it* an nual recurrence. Some have been dispo#e,d to connect Hallow E'n with the obaerv anco of All Saint*'day, which lollow*; but according to tho best aullioritiu* it i* a relic of l'agan time*. In tbo United Kingdom it i* celebrated in a quaint manner by tho common peo ple, and tho customs thero have to torno extent been brought to thi* country, al though it it not now celebrated to o great an extent a* formerly. In tho old country nut* and apple* wero everywhere in great demand and many *lrango superstition* concerning tbo observance of Hallow E'en prevail among all. According to Brand tho young women who wish to know if their lovers are faith ful put three nut* upon the bar* of the grates, naming tho nut* after tho lovers. If a nut crack* or jump* tho lover will prove unfaithful ; if it begins to blaze or I burn the lover ha* a regard for ber. If the I two named after the girl and her lover I burn together they will bo married. With ' applet the custom i* to set them afloat in a tub of water, into which the juvenile* by turn* duck their head* with the view of catching them, and the bobbing of the ur chins' head* in pursuit of the apple* occa sion* great merriment to the youngsters. Another ceremony much practiced i* to j place three dishes filled with clean and foul ! water and one empty on the hearth, when , the partir*, blindfolded, advance in tucce*- j sion and dip their finger* into one. If they ! dip into the clean water tbey are to marry [ a maiden ; if into the foul water a widow ; | if into the empty dish the party so dipping | i* destined to be either a bachelor or au old maid. j Other custom* of a still more tupertti tious character are common. One oi them | i* the eating of an apple in front of a mtr j ror with a view of discovering the inquir j er's future companion peeping over the shoulder. Another i* the custom to wet a ; shirt sleeve, hang it up to the fire to dry, , and lie in bed watching till midnight, when ] the apparition of the individual'* future | partner for life will come in and turn the | sleeve. In the town Hallow E'en i* gvner ! ally thoroughly observed by the juvenile* in the matter of rioging doorbell* and thumping on door*of bouse* not possessing I these appendages, and many are surprised at the number of callers until the explana tion come*, "Ob ! it's only Hallow E'en I" One custom common in this country i* for I a young lady to throw a ball of twine out of the window and commence winding it from the inside. The first young man who picks up the outside ball i* to be the future lover. Tim "RRVIXKD VARIETT SHOW. '— Somebody in our morning cotemporary one day last week took the DEMOCRAT to task for It* allusion in a "sarcastic" way to Helen Potter's Pleiades. We are real ! ly sorry that any ono should be so stupid as to claim that the squib was a fling at tbo entertainment, for it wa* not. We only desired the people not to be misled by the -Vcw-s, statement that "a rare dra matic entertainment" would bo witnessed. | The notice in the morning journal which | induced the item in the DEMOCRAT con ! tained a "pufT" for lb* Swedish ladies' quartette, the member* of which, as we j correctly stated, aie not with the Pieiade* \at all. There i* no doubt that the enter -1 tain men t wa* a fine one and well worth | going to see, but a* far a* an exhibition of "rara" dramatic art wa* concerned nobody | saw it. Helen Potter's imitation* and im personation* are simply the productions of an accomplished mimic, and she don't pre tend that there i* anything dramatic about them, while everybody ought to know that an imitation of Charlotte C'ushman, though it might recall the great tragic ac tress forcibly, would give but little idea of the power and soul that she could throw into the character the chote to assume- The Pleiades' entertainment is tbo e**ence of refinement and itt* satisfactorily varied | hence, it i* a "refined variety show."/ —Mr. John 1. Rankin, Republican can didate for County Commissioner, has at last been led to answer one of "the slan derous articles appearing ia print against" him, though he state* in hi* communica tion to the editor of our morning content pory that it ha* always been bis rule not to reply to like calumnious attacks. Thi* last charge, however, is the hair that broke the camel's back, and it consist* in the as sertion of Mr. Campbell that the Commis sioner candidate has industriously circula ted a report that he (Campbell) had "em beaded or stolen $6OO from the Peon's Valley Mutual Pire Insurance Company." The 'squire rises to explain and moat em phatically denies that either himself or any of hi* friends ever made use or such lan guage, and in effect defies Campbell to prove bis damaging statement. What a terribly wicked biped Ibis man Campbell mutt be I BKLLEFOXTE AWD ALTOOXA COMPARED. —An employe of the Kullefunte cer work* i who has been for seme time contemplating a removal to Altoona, whore ho could ob tain work in tho great shops of that stu pendous corporation, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, whore be was led to believe that be might do better than here, told a representative of this paper recently that he was not as strongly bent on locat ing there as bo had been. He visited Al toona lately and bis ideas of the desirabil ity of a place there were modified consid erably. lie admitted, of course, that it was quite a lively little city and that there was any quantity of work there, "but," he remarked, "except in particular instance* there don't app-ar to be very much in it from the financial st-indpoint ot a work ingman. As a place of residence, in point of health fulness and comfort, Altoona cannot compare with Uellefonte. I saw three funeral* in ono day while I wns there." There are employed in the car work* in this place men (rotu Altoona wbo have worked almost a lifetime in the shops there, and tbey say that for work of the same or nearly the same character in the Bellefonte car shops the return* in the mat ter of wage* are much more satisfactory. These men are particularly pleased with the town of tho "beautiful fountain" as a place of rcsidenee. The healthful and invigorating climate and the pure and inexhaustible supply of cold water, are some of tho advantages that Altoona doe* not possess. And wo think in expressing such opinions a* these the men in question exhibit their wisdom, good sense and ap preciation of comfort. MAKRIAOK or Rxv. Ma. Monti*.— Rev. Edward Morris, pastor of the Baptist Church at Milesburg, took hi* departure for Baltimore last Monday and will be uited in marriage to tbe lady of bit choice to-day in that city. After an absence of a couple of weeks the patlor and bis wife will return to their future home in Miles burg, and Mrs. Morris, wbo ha* heretofore been a member of tho Metbt Church, will connect herself with tbe denomination to which her husband ministers, she going through tbe customary services of immer sion. Mr. Morris I* a most popular clergy man both inside and out of hi* own do nomination, and the church seem* to have taken a new leaso of life since bit advent as pastor, while every Sunday there is a very noticeable attendance of members of other churches. 1 MPORTAXT TO SCHOOL TEACHER*.— The following is the text of the law |)assed by tbe last Legislature in regard to teach ers' salaries while in attendance during the annual institute : Section 1. That from and after the pass age of this act it shall be the duty of tbe school director* of the several school dis trict* of the Commonwealth, and they are hereby required, to allow the school teach er* employed in the said school districts, wbo are actually engaged in teaching school therein, their time and wage* while attending and participating in the exercises of tbe annual county institutes fur tbe im provement of tbe teacher*.

THE Bor KLOCUTIOXIST.— Tho Court House was filled on Tuesday night with people to hear Master Ralph Binghsm, ad vertised as a rare specimen of boy elocu tionist. 1 In, |M-rior,nance* of tho boy at least delighted the juvenile portion of the audience, but to tho grown people who at tended there seemed to be a lack of some thing satisfying. The boy's recitations and "character" impersonations were cer talnly very clever, and be is too young if his age is correctly stated, which some of hit bearers doubt—to be made a subject of criticism j but, though his gestures were graceful and appropriate and bis elocution greatly superior to that usually observed in children, his action and delivery teemed to thoroughly indicate that all had been taught him and that it was not the over powering mental absorption of the charac ter |iertonaled that inspired him, and which is the characteristic that to eminently dis tinguishes natural from artificial or ac quired elocution. The fulsome puffs of me tropolitan newspapers which heralded this exceedingly bright boy's advent led many to anticipate something a great deal better, we think, than the reality produced. Mas ter Ralph is rich in talent, it it true; but if his powers are to be continually taxed in the unreasonable and reckless style that ' marked Tuesday evening's entertainment it is scarcely probable that tbe brilliant predictions made for hitn now will ever be realised. Had it not been announced that tbe child had mastered an art in bit in fancy that men spiend the best year* of life in efforts to become proficient in he would doubtless have had a much more appreci ative reception ; but, being rated among the foremost elocutionists, tbe result caused the enthusiasm, except on the part of tbe little boy*, to be of a rather subdued sort. Mr. Bernard Laulb, of the Howard Iron Works, it at present in Europe and it meeting with gratifying success in intro ducing hi* improved methods for tbe working of iron into tbe iron establish ment* of the old world. One of tbe most valuable and important of hit iuventions it known at the "three high rolls" used for rolling bar and plate iron, now to be found in nearly alt the leading rolling mills of tbo United Stales. A late number of the SfUnttJte Ameritan contains tbe following favorable account of Mr. Lautb's success across the big water. It will lie read with pleasure by bis msny friends at home: "The Lautb three-bigb mill, for rolling sheet Iron or steel and plates, is rapidly gaining in favor in Germany, Belgium, and France. In the beginning, as Daelcn reports in tbe Zeiltckrif. df Vrrei.u Drv'.trkrr Inymirure, some trouble was ex experienced by reason of the fact that tbe middle roll wore rapidly. This was caused by tbe adhesion of cinder to their roll and its being pased through over and over again. Tbi* ha* been done away with by suitable stripping devices. Krupp has built a sheet mill fur steel hav ing 26 4 inch top and bottom rolls and 15 2 inch middle roll, the maximum thickness of plates entering tbe roll* being 0 4 inch. In turning out 0 06 inch sheets the engine makes 60 revolutions; it make* 50 for 004 inch sheets. 40 for 003 Inch sheets and 30 revolutions below that gauge. Tbe en gine ha* an automatic Corliss gear, a 37 6 inch cylinder and a62 80 inch stroke. A Lautb three-high plate train at the same work* ha* 35-6 inch top and bottom roll* and a steel 17 80 inch middle roll, which is raised and lowered mechanically before every pas*. Tbe mill is run at the rate of 60 to GO revolutions per minute." —The Recorder's office of Centre coun ty be* just received a lot of Index books from tbe blank book manufactory of Mr. Frank Hulter, of Ilarritburg, which are certainly very fine specimens of the skill of the maker of them. They are, in a word, perfect in every particular—paper, binding and ruling—as every person who examine* them wilt say. Mr. Hutter pays frequent visit* to Bellefonta and will be glad to receive orders for blank book* wbich be will guarantee to give satisfac tion. lie will also do all kind* of binding in tbe highest style of tbe art. Person* having magasines, Ac., to bind or old books to re-bind cannot entrust them to better bend*. —The Lock Uaven Repmklieon says that a handsome geanita monument has been erected over the tomb of the lata Col. A. C. Noyes, at Westport. The monument ia fourteen and a half feet and wa* made by J. R. Datcbelder, of Lock Haven. The lot in which the remains lie have been en closed with a neat iron fence and the monument and enclosure are pronounced very fine by those who beve visited the burial ground. —We are requested by Prof. D.
