IN CENTRE COUNTY FOR SIX MONTHS. A— Copied from the Assessors Heturns--Grouped by Districts, giving nge, single or married ~'f wo districts not reported, Last week we gave the totals of births and deaths 10 this county during the past six months from June 6 to Decem- ber 1st, 1803, It showed 411 births und 109 deaths, with two districts not re. ported—Ruesh south precinct and Gregg south precinct. Thinking that a com- plete list of all the deaths in the county would be of interest to the public the sare was copied. Some of the assessors made very poor returns by misspelling the names of deceased ones. Often widows and widowers were marked sin. gle, so that if the list is not thoroughly accurate, it is the fault of the assessors’ returns. BOROUGHS, Reliefonte, north ward—John A.

Sankey kidnapped the girl and took her to Illinois. He returned to this state and was arrested, He compromised the ease by formerly ad. derson, 70, 8; Margaret Hamer, 68 mi; Ellen Hale, 22, mm; infant child of John W. Weaver; Wm.

Flittings, From our exchanges we gather the following items in regard to flittings that will take place in Bellefonte and in other parts of the county: Register G. W. Rumberger will move from Philipsburg to Joseph Fox's brick residence, on Bishop street, Mr, Fox and family will move to Graysville, at a point along the branch of the Lewisburg & Tyrone railroad leading to Tyrone. Mr. Fox has a large lumbering operation at that place. { Prothonotary Smith will move from | Millheim to Bellefonte, W. H, Musser, insurance agent, will move from Milesburg to Bellefonte. { Henry Meyer, of Centre Hall, former. to Cilifornia, He made a will in favor and she lived with him wife at their home in San Francisco, Sankey developed marked mental dis. order and after the death of his wife in 1886 he began to abuse his daughter, child into the possession of the Society to Protect Children from Cruelty and the next day Sankey tore up his will and executed another, disinheriting Carrie. For a time the girl had a hard life of it trying to make a living, but finally she found a home and friends with Mr. and Mrs. Charles Cum. { mings, of San Francisco. Inthe mean. time Sankey came east to visit his brother, John Sankey, of Miflinburg, this state, where he died on October 15, 1886. Since then John Sankey and his brother's adopted daughter have waged a legal the state of California, Pennsylvania and Illinois for possession of Sankey's money. In both Califormia and Pennsylvania the courts decided that Sankey was insane when be tore up the will in favor and that she was entitled to the money.

In 1797, when Colonel Duala hased from William Lamb, of Uhiladelphia, the tract of land on which he after- wards located this place, there was an old Indian by the name of Go Easy, a full brother to Logan, the Mingo chief, had his wigwam near the bank of Spring creek, where the Bush House now stands. A few rods from his wigwam was a deer lick, where the deer used to come for their salt. That lick was right under the present cafe of the Bush House, where many persons now LY to get a lick of John Barleycorn. hus we see local history repeating itself with but slight variation. Colonel Dunlap had several cows with bells on them, the noise of which frigghvehed the deer away from the lick thereby depriving poor Lo of his venison. That Go Easy stopped by taking the bells from the cows and hiding them in a hollow tree where the Presbyterian church now stands. Colonel Dunlap, with his German servant, made a search in the woods for the lost bells, The German found them, and in his broken English called to the colonel saying, ‘bells fount.” The place was soon known in the neighborhood as the place where the bells were found, and to keep up the remembrance of the locality, when Dunlap laid out his town he named it “Bells Found,” which name gradually became corrupted to “Bellefonte.” So far as the borough being called after the “beautiful fountain,” it is mere histori. cal gush, for two miles along the creek there are several springs, some of which were known during the revolutionary war as the “clear springs’ because t all came out at the foot of the blu from a subterunean cavern, consequent. ly their waters were never muddy.” . — Fire at Madmonburg. Last Friday morning the alarm of fire aroused the people of Madisonburg and it was found that the general store of J. W. Hasel, was enveloped in flames, In a short tise the building, with all its contents, was doomed. The build. ing, part of which was a private resi. dence, was owned and occupied by Mrs. Luther Stover. The Lutheran church, standing <lose by, caught fire several times and it was only by heroic work that it was saved from destruc. tion. The fire was caused by a lamp falling to the floor and the oil ignightiag. The Heavy Porkers, Among the heavy porkers killed this | year the following are among the best heard of: John Powers, Buillefonte, one that dressed 515 and another 525. Ex-Commissioner John D. Decker, of Potters Mills, goes a bit better with two at 538 and 457. On Tuesday, Dec. 12th, John Houser, living on Nittany mountain, 3 miles cast of Centre Hall, killed a fine speci. men that tipped the scales at 600 which is the best yet heard of and entitles him to the belt. John Coble, of Lemont, head butcher, will testify to this weight. | Returned to Nellefonte, Last week Mr. and Mrs, Frank E. Naginey moved from Athens, Pa., to Bellefonte.
