Yesterday morning the
military and citizens of our town, did the
last honors to the remains of DIR. A. w.
BAyARD, who vas soldier in the war Of
1912, and who has, for many years, been a
citizen of Bellefonte He died at his resi-
dence on Monday morning. At the tims
appointed for the funeral, the Band, the Fen
cibles and the Troop marched to house of the
dead. When the cofin was brought from
the house the ensigns of the different com
panies wrapped their colors around it and
it was placed upon the shoulders of four
members of the troop. The band then struck
up o solemn iunerel march and the process
sion moved toward the cemetry. As 1t pas-
sed down the street, the procession present
cd scene at once solemn and impoaing.-
First came tie band discoursing its most
solemn notes, next the Fencibles aud Troop
with reversed arms, then the coffin, which
was followed by the relatives and friends of
the deceased. The continued rolling of muf-
fed drums the to ling of the bell, the slow
steady step, all combined to add solsmnity
to the occasion. When the procession reach
ed the grave religious services were con-
Quoted by the Rev. Sherlock, after which
the military fred three rounds over the grave.
The procession then returned leaving the
cid warrior to res, in peace in the quiet city
of the Dead.
.Ishn II. Stover Of the Press, and the Sen.
ior Of this paper intend preparing bio-
graphical sketch o: the deceased, which will
be published mex. week.

Strangers IN gown.

For several weeks past
a great many iiae looking atrangsrs have
been seen stepping about orr streets No
one can Tell what their business here is. but
from the fact that they generally pull up in
front of Col. Curtin's Office, we are led to
suppose they must have some connection
With that gsutleman. Some como AID go
away again in few hours, others linger
around two or three days before taking their
fiual departure. These last named indiyidu-
ais must belong TO a class Of people denomi-
mated "bores."

CONSERVATION 10y an attack from a partv of
white men, who commenced tearing down
their shanties and beating such of the Celes-
tials as fell into their hands. There were n
number of shots fred-some by the China
men and some by the whites. The son of
Judge Brunton and a young man named
John Morris, whe were sleeping in a house
near the cabins Of the Chinese, hearing the
distur ance, got up and hearing the white
men, as they say, speak of attacking Judge
Brunton's house, discharged n rifle in the
direction of the party three times The as
sailants then left aud packed the body of
Conner, who was mOrta ly wounded bv a
large sized ball, to Poverty Hill, where he
died in about tour hours There are some
doubts entertained whether he was killed by
the discharge of the rifle of young Brunton
or bya shot fred hy the Chinamen If he
was killed by the discharge of the rifle Of
Brunton, it was a chance shot. as tie night
was too dark to see the parties.
Brunton and Morris came to Sonora the
next morning, and gave themselves up to the
authorities. The Coroner held an inqnest on
the body of Conner on Wednesday, and the
jury returned verdict to the effect that the
deceased came to his death 10y a gun shot

TIE LAWRENCE CALAMrY.-A late eastern
dispatch says:
The jury in the cnse ofthe Pcmberton Mills
disaster last night rendered verdict. in
which they declare their belief that the own
ers at the time Of the fall Of the building had
no reason to distrust its security They find
the direct cause of the fall to have been the
weakness Of the cast-iron columns, the thin
ness of the brick walls, the manner of con
struction and the length Of the span from one
support to another. The responsibility of the
iron works, so far as actual defects, rests on
Albert Fuller. All responsibility from in
sufficient tests and defects of construction
rests on Charles l.. Bigelow, the architect
and superintendent, whom the jury find re-
sponsible for the death of the human beings
lost.
