—Bright'* disease, now so common and
considered incurable, has been successfully
treated in the case of Geueral Hchenck by

Mr. E. M.Sturdevant ba* purchased two
lots and proposes to improve them imme
diately, while several other parties have
secured lots with the view of building,
Curtin street is an especially desirable
place of residence.
—There is a strong probability that a
furnace for tbe manufacture of steel will
be completed in Bellefon,e in tbe course of
six months more. The furnace will be lo
cated on tbe site formerly occupied by the
rolling mill of tbe Bellefonte Iron Com
pany, and tbe initiatory operations looking
to its construction have already been com
menced. This laudable enterprise is sup
ported by smple capital, but tbe gentlemen
most prominently connected with it do not
desire anything further made public at tbe
present than tbi-Hmple announcement that
tbe people may expect this much to be de
sired manufactory. The future of Belle
fonte is certainly bright, Judging from the
number of contemplated industries.
—Re*. J. V. R. Hughes, formerly of
Bellefonte but now a resident of Kilbourn
City, Wit, ha* been appointed po*tma*ler
of tbat place. Mr. Hughes' failing health

umal vigor. The principal of tho Bello
fonto academy, Rev. Jatnc* Hughe#, 1* a
brother of the po*tma*ter.
—Our little morning contemporary did
not make it* appearance tho morning after
tho election. Some people thought proba
bly It wa# ashamed to bow it* head after
Noble beating both Uaily and Wolfe in
the usually staunch Republican town of
Bellefonte. But that wasn't the reason at
all, and tho actual cause of the paper's
non-appearanco was tho "pl"ing of a
"form." __
Mr. James Pope, of Snow Shoe, was
in town on Saturday last. Mr. Pope was
at ono time in the coal business, but he is
now engaged in contracting and is a bid
dor for tho construction of five mile# of
new track from Berwind, White 6c Co.'#
collieries, which is to bo controlled by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. Mr-
Pope is a popular citiaon and an agreeable
gentleman.
—Tho December number of the Century
(late Seribner's) will bo in largo part a
memorial of Dr. Holland and of President
Garfield. It will appear November 19,
tho day tho latter would bavo been 60
years old, and will contain a portrait of
each by Cole, with material of unusual In
terest regarding both. Mr. Howells 1 new
novel, "A Modern Instance," will begin
in this number, and there will be several
papers of adventure or of a curious char
acter.
—Mrs. John Welsh, an old colored lady
of about "0 years, who lived at High and
Ridge street#, in the rear of the jail, died
about 6 o'clock on Sunday evening last at
her rc#idence. Tho cause of her decease
wa# old ago and general debility. Sho wa#
very highly esteemed and respected by ev
erybody in tho neighborhood who knew
her. Mrs. Welsh was the relict of John
Welsh, who was once a constable in Belle
fonte and who died about a year ago at an
advanced age.
Ben Williams, a colored porter at the
Brockerhoff House, the otbor nigbt took
the conceit out of a Philadelphia stone
mason who bad been employed on the new
Centro County Bank building and who
had said, it is related, that no three men
in Beilefonte, all at one time, could trounce
him. On the nigbt of tho demonstration,
which occurred in the bote! barroom, the
stonecutter was "pickin' on" Ben, a* be
says, and then Ben let biin have it in a
pugilistic sense. Ben states that bis mus
cular and scientific opponent was badly
cut and bruised about tho head and face,
and that he departed from Bellefonte the
next morning in greater baste than roost
people employ.
—The sarcastic Altoona morning paper
says that "a Bellefonte man who came
here with half a notion to make the city
his futuro home happened to see three fu
nerals in one day, whereupon be ran home
with a dismal tale about the unheattbineM
of Altoona. He should have lnvesAgated
a little, when he would likely have discov
ered that the three unfortunates whose fu
nerals he saw had been visiting Bellefonte
when tbey were smitten by the band of
death." Not much he wouldn't, either.
People come to Bellefonte to be cured of
their lII#. There are never any epidemics
here and no "malaria" (bad whisky), as
there are in Altoona, and the Bellefonte
undertaker* are one and all contemplating
removal to Altoona.
—"Uncle Jim" Purcy, of Tyrone, is as
much of a humorist as ever, but he has his
pathetic moments, too. Last Sunday
morning one of a pair of little white ban
tam chicken# about 0 months old—both of
which were great favorites in the house,
bold and a* docile as kittens, but with
an independent don't care strut tbat
compelled admiration of their taking way#
—attempted to follow him into the bouse
when he opened the door. Not observing
the precious pet "Uncle Jim" unwittingly
caught it between the door and the jamb
as he closed the door, and life wa* crushed
out of it before it could be extricated.
Every member of the family expressed
feelings of r>gret at the death of the saucy
bantam, and "Uncle Jim" said be felt just
like going up in the garden behind the
hogpen and having a good bawl.
—A trestle now occupies a large portion
of the street heretofore Uken up by the
track of the Bald Eagle Valley railroad at
Tyrone. The grade of the ground track
was very heavy, the rails being nine feet
lower at a point near the bridge tban at
the other extreme, and fretght trains were
frequently stuck and invariably experi
enced great difficulty in getting over that
portion of the road. Several streets are
blockaded by the trestle, but there is now
no apparent necessity for further block
adee of freight trains at tbat point. To the
eye of the unaccustomed observer the
trestle looks like an inclined plane, but I*
said to be about level. The trestle is prob
ably an eighth of a mile long, and it wa*
constructed during Saturday nigbt and tbe
fore pert of Sunday nearly three weeks
ago. This I* considered rapid work,
though, with tbe usual precision and at
tention to detail which characterise the
preparation* for work to be performed by
tbe employee of tbe Pennsylvania railroad,
every piece of lumber Was numbered and
assigned it* place beforehand.

LUTHERAN CoarßHEßca AT CBNTSB
HALL.— Tha Northern Conference of the
Evangelical Lutheran Bynod of Central
Pennsylvania was in session several days

Rev. J. A. Koser, of Pine Grove Mills.
On Wednesday morning from half-past 8
to 9 o'clock devotional exercisos were held,
conducted by tbe venerable lather, Rev. J.
G. Anspach, of MifHinb'irg. From 9 to
half-past 10 conference business received
attention. At half-past 10 tbe discussion
on "How to Btuuy tbe Word of God" was
opened with a carefully prepared paper by
Rev. B. K. Furst, of Bellefonte. The dis

ference in a thorough manner until time

which a short business session was held,
fallowed by the closing exercise* of confer

The business transacted at this meeting
was of importance. Aii the session* were
harmonious, practical and edifying, and lbs
reports on tho stale of religion were very
encouraging. All departed with tho feeling
that "it was good to bo there."
FARMER* TTIAXXRUL roa THB RAIX.
The rainfall of the past two weeks has bad
a much desired effect throughout tbe sur
rounding country, and the springs and
creeks that bad almost entirely dried up
during tho long-continued drought hsve
been revived. Tbe rain came too late, how
ever, to save the crop* and, consequently,
to have any efTect upon the price* of vege
table*. The potato and turnip crops were
curtailed from the effects of the drought,
as well as mar.y other article* of table pro
duce, and although tbe recent rains will
hsve a good effect in many other ways
they cannot make up for the scarcity of
provisions now that the season is over.
Farmers say there is little to be hoped for
in the prospect of a fall in prices, but
while housekeepers may set their minds to
dear marketing the coming winter they
will at least have tbe comforting assurance
that there is no probability of a further
increase. Although the rain* did not come
early enough to save the crops the farmer*
are thanklul that they wera in here bare
lime to save winter wheat and rye, which
would have suffered severely had it not
been for tbe long-looked-for-come-*t-last
November shower*. Fall pastures will
also be improved by the present change of
weather.
VENXOB'S NOVEMBER W BATIIEE.—
Vennor, the Canadian weather prophet,
whose prognostications are readable If not
always reliable, says that "November of
this year will probably enter cold and de
cidedly wet, but this condition will sud
denly, after the first week, give place to
open and genial weather nearly every
where, with e disappearance of frosts even
in northern New York and Canada for a
marked period. We may expect some oi
tha finest—st any rata most enjoyable
weather of the season during Ibis month
at Naw York, Boston, Philadelphia and
Washington, and in Canada our 'lndian
summer.' In western sections the fore and
latter portions of tbe month are likely to
be disagreeable, but I do not anticipate
much trouble from snowfalls or blockades
this winter until December. Should such
occur, however, It will likely be found that
lb* date* of the disturbances will be very
nearly tbe same a* those of the November
of 1880. Possibly there may be a period
of unusual warmth in proximity to the
middle of tbe month. This month will be
marked by periods of bslmy and brilliant
autumn weather, as in the year 1877."
—Tha water wee likewise turned of
with the whisky on Tusaday (election day).
We don't care so vary much abouhsudden
stoppages of whisky, particularly oa elec
tion day, for on that occasion thsy are ex
pected ; but these sudden end too frequent
stoppage* of the aqueous fluid,without any
previous announcement thereof to the cltl.
sens, ere a decided and nbominable source
of complaint.
—Go to 8. A A, Loeb for bargains In
anything.
MIMIVQ HEIRS—THE BBABCH ron
TUB RELATIVE* or JOIIM DuruiLD.—
A lolegraphio dispatch printed In a Phila
delphia newspaper of August 80 has occa
sioned great interest and doubtless consid
erable anxiety In a certain section of this
county. The particulars contained in that
Associated I'ress telegram were as lollows,
the dispatch being sent from Washington :
"A communication has been received at
tho Department of Bute from Consul Ba
ker, of Buenos Ayres, relative to a search
for the heirs of John Duffleld, of Goya,
Argentine Itopublic, which stales a letter
had been received at the consulate from a
gentleman signing himself J. 11. Ander
son. The letter was d*U<d Irom the ('amp
bell House, Bav City, Michigan, and the
writer slates that he was well acquainted
with Mr. Duffleld; that his heirs reside in
the Btate of Maine and that he (Mr. An
derson) will look them up. Heretofore, in
pursuance of the vaguo information on
hand, the search for the missing hsirs was
confined to Mobile, Ala. It would n<>w
appear, however, that either by advertis
ing or correspondence in Maine, or both,
the representatives of the deceased may be
at last discovered. It is understood by
those who were acquainted with John Duf-
Held that he was o'iginally a sailor, and
was connected with Captain Belfridge's
Tchuanlcpec surveying expedition. He
went Irom Central America down the
west coast to Peru, whence ho crossed
overland to Ascuncinn,or rather Villa Oc
cidental, Paraguay, where for many years
he was engaged in commercial pursuits.
Dr. Newkirk, of Goya, the locality where
Duffleld was murdered, wrote recently to
Consul Baker that he (Dr. Newkirk) had
received a letter from Hon. C. 11. Wash
burn, formerly United Slates Minister at
Paraguay and at present residing in San
Francisco, Cal., wherein Mr. Washburn
stated that ho was well acquainted with
Duffleld, whose real name was Kelly.
Since the receipt of the above dispatch the
department has been informed directly by
cx-Minister Washburn that be did know
John Duffleld very well, but affirms that
he never wrote to Dr. Newkirk and that
be never said or heard that Duffleld's real
name was Kelly. Consul Baker still later
advises the department that the said Dr.
Newkirk now writes that the assets of the
estate have been delivered to the court to
be turned into the treasury of the province
of Corrietes. The heirs however can, by
making themselves known, institute pro
ceedings recover the property."
The foregoing statement if thoroughly
investigated and pursued bids fair to result
in the enrichment of citixens of Centre
county, Charlaa Jefferson Duffleld, Joseph
Duffleld and Elisabeth Duffleld, who live
in Beech Creek and Eaglevillo. C. J. Duf
fleld observing the dispatch in the news
papers he authorised Mr. John McGhee,
of Beech Creek, to write to the Stale De
partment at Washington saying the de
scription of the deceased answered to that
of bis uncle, John Duffleld, who formerly
lived in Maine, but who went South and
was lost track of. The reply from W.
Hunter, Second Assistant Secretary, was
to the effect that the dispatch was authen
tic, being prepared in the department for
publication with the view to discovering,
if possible, the legal heirs to the estate of
John Duffleld, deceased, and that it con
tained a brief summary of all the essential
and prominent facts In connection with
the case which have been reported. The
Second Assistant Secretary advises Mr.
McGhee to write to the United States
Consul at Buenos Ayres, Argentine He.
public, making inquiry as to the estate and
the will, at the same time acquainting the
Consul with bis purpose of endeavoring to
establish the right and title of Jefferson
Duffleld et al. as heirs of the late John
Duffleld.
In order to advance the interests of the
supposed Centre county heirs to ibis valu
able Boulh American estate Mr. J. L.
Bpangler, of ibis place, has been engaged
to attend to the legal details of the case,
and he has prepared a letter to Hon. K. L.
Baker, American Consul at Buenos Ayrea,
stating that he Is the representative of C.
J., Joseph and Elisabeth Duffleld, and be
wishes to establish their right and title to
the estate as heirs of John Duffleld. The
Kagleviite and Beech Creek Dufflelds rep
resent in their attorney's letter that John
and Robert Duffleld were born In Maine,
the precise locality not yet being known.
Robert removed to Rockingham county,
Vs., in 1887, and thence to Newport, Pa.,
where be died In 1871, leaving a widow,
Elisabeth, and two sons, Charles Jefferson
Joseph Duffleld. The tons, now about 80
year* of age, assert that their uncle left
Maine about 1867 or 1868 and proceeded
to Virginia, but spent most of his lime in
Washington. Tbey think ba was aboard
a vessel and that be enlisted in the nrmy
or had something to do with the service.
Joeeph allege* that he taw bis uncle in the
service in South Caroline In 1862. He we*
unmarried at that time and bis height was
about 6 feat II inches j complexion retber
dark; weight 100 pound*; high check
bones; brown hair; robust and healthy
and always of a roving disposition. Tha
young men have had no tidings of their
uncle since 1882.
The letter to the Consul likewise make*
n polite requeet that he will render nil the
assistance in his power to oleer up the tnye
tery surrounding the case in it* existing
state and to endeavor to have the aetata—
the exact amount of which has not to this
time been ascertained—awarded to the
rightful legal***. Tha* tha matter stands
at present; but til interested eta repose in
the assurance that every step necessary to
securo to the Centre county claimants their
rights will be taken. It is to be hoped
that If the Beech Creek and Eagleville
Dufflelds are proved the legal heirs they
may receive the legacy without delay or
unnecessary trouble, and though doubtless
considerable time will be consumed, owing
to the fact that all matter* relating to the
estate have to be conducted by correspond
ence, ml* is what Mr. Bpangler has earn
estly set himself to work to accomplish.
NITTARY VALLEY RAILROAD.— In an
endeavor one very wet night this week to
ascertain something sddittonal In regard to
the fate of the NlUany Valley Railroad
Company—an unauthorised report being
circulated that it bad gone to pieces—a re
porter of this paper encountered a gentle
man who had been originally connected
with the first organization which, he said,
WHS on a fair basis. Bomelbing afterward
occurred by which a new organization was
had, and then the gentleman in question
arid one or two others withdrew from the
company. A gentleman largely interested
in the future successor the corporation told
the reporter afterward it bad not "buled"
at all, but that mailers were very quiet at
present. Ho had no doubt of the building
of the road finally.
PoMTI'OKEMEVTor Urxxixo tub GLAM
WORKS —The prediction of Mr. Richard
Davit, the eminently practical superinten
dent of the revived glass works, that the
work* would be fired up and the first glass
bo made on next Sunday night will not be
fulfilled, through n<> fault of bis, however.
Since the commencement of the repair* to
the old building it ha* been discovered
that it will be necessary to place a now
crown on the furnance, and the conse
quence is the beginning of the manufac
ture of glass will be delayed for probably
three days. The engaged employes will
bo telegraphed for when their presence is
desired. It is sincerely to ho hoped that
onco the works get started there may never
thereafter be the slightest cessation.
CEREAL PRODUCTION.— We are indebt

In flame, but without dropping and with
decidedly creditable presence of mind she
hurried to the beck porch of her residence
upon which she dropped It and succeeded
In quenching the flint without any dam
age of consequence resulting.

TIIK COLORADO FORTUVR-BEEKKM RR
TOR* FLKE<-SD.—Tha prediction oC Mr.
Jonathan Bullock, blackamtlh and wagon
maker of Milasburg, wa* fulfilled much
earlier than even he anticipated. It will
be remembered that on Saturday last
hU aon Lewi* end an equally adventurous
lad named Harry Fulton "myateriouily
disappeared." Bullock with $ll6 In bia
pocket* and Fulton "dead broke"—and
the understanding wa* that they bad
atruck fr Colorado. The father of young
Bui lock remarked, when he ascertained
lhat hi* bojejful *on had departed without
hi* knowledge and with a "butted" com
panion, that he guessed the youngttera
would be glad enough to return to old
Miteaburg before the cold weather waa
over. And ture enough they did, "alaa I
quite chap-fallen." But it wa* not their
original intention to do *o, and their return
wa* the retull of the force of circumttan
ce*. Arrived at I'ituburg tbey thought
tbey d better examine the tmoky city a
elephant, and, of courte unsuspiciously,
they wandered into one of the numerou*
•aloon* which there abound and, we pre
sume, called for a gla* or two of beer. A*
the story i* detailed, mm* one connected
with the place torn-bow got an inkling
that there wa* $ll6 in the crowd, and at
once, with the assistance of confederate*,
of course et to work to get po**e#ion of
the coveted wealth, and succeeded 1n do

that tbey had gone far enough toward
Colorado, and having lot their fortune
retraced their *lr|M toward old Milraburg,
