Tim horselesK carriage will come
i'it use before people are done
marvelling over its promised com
in" The general opinion is elec
tricity must of necessity le the
pmpelling power, but such is not
the case. There are now made be
tween two and three hundred dif
ferent kinds of horseless vehicles.
The lowest priced vehicle at this
time is six hundred dollars and
weighs when fully equipped a lit
tle less than 400 pounds; is driven
by steam aud can Ihj run as slow as
an ox team or at the rate of 40
mile? an hour and can run up a
hill of 14 degrees at the rate of 15
miles an hour I u a few years the
price will lie down to that of horse
carriages. There are other ele
ments than steam used to drive
4 hem: Electricity; alcohol; com
pressed air; gasoline, So far steam
is the best. The element of pro
pnlsion that presents the least bulk
ami weight will liccome the favor
ite driving power. It is not a
stretch of i magi natiou to say that
a horseless machine to plow with
will lie iu use before many years.
A machine not heavier than a pair
f heavy horses to plow with could
'ie made available for many pur
poses ou the farm. Hut what will
the horseless cajriage do with the
horse trade. The prices of horses
will fall lielow the prices of a good
eow or a 1000 pouud steer. When
a less numlter of hoises are requir
ed a less number of bushels of corn
iind oats will Ikj required, all of
w;iich makes it clear that the com
ing of the horseless carriage is go
ing to hit far reaching in a number
of ways. The adveut of the elec
triu car aud the bicycle has had a
great deal to do with the lowering
of the price of horses and coru and
oats, and now that the horseless
carriage is added to the list prices
of horses, corn and oats must needs
decline considerably further A
Juniata county man came near le
iug a pioneer in the inveutiou and
introduction of the horseless car
riage. Dr. Killmer of Port Royal
some years ago invented and made
a horseless carriage iu which he
traveled in surrounding counties.
lbe Dr. had tame and tort u tie in
his hand at that time, but did not
Trnow it. His neighbors were not
any wiser than he and did not see,
! hat for him, that was the tide that
I-jsd to fame and fortune. The doc
tor is probably as happy as if he
had gone with that propitious tide
to buffet with the great business
v o Id bevond his mountain girt
home to inlmlut-e a machine that :

A DESERTE J FURN4.CE.
As I view tbe furnace from the
bill, 1 am seated to write this ac
count, nothing baoom33 moro real
than fie vivid pictures presented by
Oliver Goldsmith in "The Deserted
Village." Let rav reader first m'"''
late upcuth'' 'ltifn'
itgiitbCio&dof'S Hppear to makoy
rea, and bo v often our imgin&rtcn
carries us off to fields unknown, un
seen. Still it is fur better to tee
things Bs they aro than to bo lost in
imagining more than would be possi
ble to be true.
One who has passed through this
village, will uever foagefc tha sirrov
ful appearance of its buildings and
the neglect and careless hubits of the
few rem lining inhabitants, who lurk
indolently through the viliuge, seem
ingly to bemoan their ill-fated loss.
Mt of the houses are constructed
of lops small, iibUiilly one story nnd
of a ro.igh o.iUido appr.ara&c
Tuere cai he no doubt, that at one
time they were tho humble homes of
many a happv f.-tuilv. Dot why all
this cbar.gt? Some are si ill standing.
others partly fallen together rcofa
fallen in, windows and doors taken
out or broken in piec.e3. S nc3 fow
are entire ruins almost hidden by
vine, grass and uuder brush. The
greatest ruin is the okl furnace a
large structure which yon canuot
help see us you pass by. The frme
part of the roof and eorau of the
floor is all that remains. A'l the
iron works have been removed and
time alone reems to be waiting
tor it to sink in ruin and obscurity.
This village (Pennsylvania Fur
nice), which is partly in Centre and
partly in Huntingdon counties, was
for years the scene of great industry.
A large ore mine was discovered and
in a short time much of tha village
was built by the laboring people,
who hurried here for employment.
One mile nort heart of tho village is
the mine, which is as large a? aa or
dinary. By tho appearance of the
mine, which at sime places is from
fifty to sixty fact deep, you can only
form a faint idea of the number of
meii employed. Standing on soma
of these banks cf earth it would ap
pear like a dream that this work
should have been done by human
haod3.
Words citnnot express the soeni
iugly distressed couditim of this
place. As you wander away from it
imaginutiou aad reality becomes con.
fused and us a dream it seems to
drift away into forgetfnlneHs.
From this height I sit and ponder,
Of these works and formsjand wonder
How human hands could muster time
To dig this large aud wondrous mine.
Time alone has but effaced;
But memory has not erased
Thy fancied scenes I here liehold
Hhall never in my heart grow cold.
One glance to the village in the dale,
I seiit this time to tell thy tale;
If ou this earth we should not meet,
O may we all the last duy greet.

HISTORY OF THE OLD

"Erected June 9, 1898 by tbo Belle
fonte Chapter of tbe Daughteis of
tho Rr.volu'ion to maik the location
of the old Indian Fort, known in
1777 as Potter's Fort, whic'i stoid
650 feet north of this mark."
The "Oid Fort," as is the familiar
name, was built by Colonel James
Potter in 1777 & a defanse to the
hostile Indians, who frequently mad
derpeiate raids through Penn's Val
ley in these earlier days when odIv a
few settlers lived in this beautifnl
valley, then a wilderness. It was
likely the beautiful spring of water
tbst helped Colonel Potter to select
this place to build his little log cabin
in 1773. Lster this place was occu
pied as a taveru by Stephen 8iuith

lTtrndhead's command for a few

soldiers and two Indians who fought
here until they had almost cut each
other in pieces. All four died. The
graves of the two Indians are still
nia'ked along the Lewistown aud
Belle fonte road not far from "Old
Fort." Tho only service done by
Colonel Brodhead was the command
to Captain Finley with twenty five
privates to go into Penn's Valley to
protect the reapers from the invad
ing bands c-f Indians.
-A&er the treaty of 17G8 JamVs
Potter afterwards brigadier ceneral
under Wnsbiuo;tor, came'upthe West
Branch and Bald Eigle Creek to
eetk valuable land. Ho crossed the
Nitlany mountains at Logan's Gap.
Here from tho top of the mountain
he saw for the first time that beauti
ful valley which was to be his per
manent home. Anyone who has
crorsed here on "the Le wist own and
Bellefonte road wilt ever remember
the impression made of t hat luxur
iant valley spread out like a mp,
checkered with cnps9S of . woodland
ard fertile farms with cbesiful white
cottages. After reconnoitering the
va'ley he descended Penn's creek in
a cacoo to see as he probably thought
a more beautiful losition for a set
tlement, but s-on returned, made a
settlement end erf tied u stockade
fort. Traces of the fort are still seen
wbere McCyy's tav.- ro stood.
Many of the rich farmers belong to
Potter'" family tie. principal r-s:-dents
of Potter's bark and for miks
further south.
At tho opening of tho revolution a
band of hostile roving Indians drove
General Potter with others from the
settlement. He then entered the
strvice of Washington in the cam
paign at Valley Forge, Brandy wine,
Germantown aud New Jersey. Many
of Washington's orders and letters
were preserved among Gsner.il Pot
ter s pipers.
After the war a treatv was raaue
with tbo Indians for the purchase of
the land south and northwest of West
Branch. General Potter was employ
ed ss agent and surveyor and super
intended tbo lands of settlements on
the Sinnemahonins and West Branch
above tbe Allegheny mouutiins.
IdcIisu raids were frequently niacte
and many white settlers were killed.
