your winter clothing. Before deciding on |
what you will buy see what the celebrated j

did much to build up the large demand of
this very superior grade of clothing.
—"Hallow eve" was celebrated by boys

J annual recurrence of the hilarious occa

there would doubtless have been a "time"

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

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 Metb<idi>t 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

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

for allowing the teacher* their time and
wages, providing, that tbe provision* of
thi* act shall not extend to tbe First school
district of Pennsylvania nor to the coun

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.
