We predict that Lewis Emery, Jr., from this district, will be one of the star actors, right in the swim, because he got on the trail early, Freight Train Wrecked, A slight wreck on the L. & rail- road occurred the other day above Weikert., The east bound local freight had the engine and three cars derailed and badly damaged. The wrecking crew with the derrick were sent to the scene, and were several hours in clean. ing up the wreckage. A brakeman was bruised and had an ankle sprained, The afternoon passenger trains were compelled to transfer around the wreck, The train from Bellefonte went as far as the wreck and then returned, T State's Football Schedule.

B. H. Hart, of Harris- burg, who is now the youngest Past | Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of this state, he having just completed his term as Grand Master last month That he is peculiarly adapted to making gddresses tor such occasions is surely undisputed, for he was given the rudi- | ments of an education, along with five | brothers and sisters, by the I.

His talk was exceptionally | instructive, especially to those who op- pose a fraternal secret organization of {this class, simply because it is a secret { organization, and they are not able to learn a few secrets that are only for the | protection of the members and which {they cannot learn without joining a lodge of the order. Every one present, a large audience, would have been { pleased if this eloquent speaker could have continued for hours longer than he was privileged tospeak. All departed | for their homes hoping that they would have the privilege of hearing him again in the not far-distant future, Rev. Lantz, of Spriag Mills sisted the Rev, Hart by offering 1 at the opening and closing of vices, The attendance from the hor was quite large; besides, a large num- | ber of visiting members from Bellefonte, Boalsburg, Centre Hall, Rebersbur Millheim Uniontown lodges we present, A quartette composed of Will Ream, C.

For this happy result we alone can give full cred it to the Providence which rales over the universe, and causes the rains to fall, the sun to shine and all nature to yield such bounteous harvests While this is true, we expect to hear our Republican friends, as usual, claim all the credit, A Novel Machine Howard R. Ruger, of Bellefonte, has | adopted an entirely new idea. Instead of him doing so much of the talking him. self be has placed in front of the Petri. kin Hall a machine that is helping him out. It is an automatic weighing | machine. All you have to do is to step on the platform of the scales and put a {nickle in the slot. Instead of a needle | registering your weight on a dial the | machine speaks out and tells your cor- rect weight, The method is on the principle of a phonograph. A large disk is found in the inside on which are the weights of persons from one to two bundred and fifty pounds, For instance when a man weighing 150 pounds steps on the scales od drops his nickle the needle touches the disks and immediate- ly it calls out your weight, It has been affording considerable amusements to the public.
