AT THE "WIowAM. 1.-THE Presbyterian
"Wigwam" was the scene Of much mrth
and festivity last Friday evening. The
children's Christmas festival commenced
at G:30 p. NJ, and, almost three hundred in
number, the assembled young folks fcasted
themselves until about 1880 o'clock, when
they were dismissed. The adults Of the
Sunday-school and congregation then gath
cred about the council fire and formed
themselves into a ways and means COM
mttee for the further prosecution Of Sun
day-school work. Gen. James A. Beaver,
j. l.. Spangler and A. q. Furst, Esq's,
and others, made remarks of an advisory
and encouraging nature. Mr.. Furst, who
Is also member of the school board, gave
them the pleasant news that before long
the school board purposes to turn them out
of the "Wigwam" building and demolish
the unsightly structure, as at present it is
serious reflection upon the good taste of
Bellefonte's board of education. We do
not imagine this bit of information fright
ened the school very much, rs, aside from
the fact that the church is now relieved
from debt, the Sunday also has
snug sum on interest for the erection Of a
new Sabbath-school edifce. We have not
learned the result of the gathering, but
expect soon to see graceful structure sris-
ing for the accommodation of the school.

The IvyS.

In spite Of the lnclemency ofthe wealth
er last Tuesday evening the attendance at
the third reunion of the "Ivy Club"
held at the residence Of Col. E. M. Brown,
Third street, was good and the gayety Of
the scene afforded a striking contrast to
the harsh discord of the elements without.
Among those present were noticed Misses
Lizzie Sweet, Jessie Macnider, Hattie
Bentley, Nellie Bentley, Emma Bentley.
Sadie Reed and Loo Loo Brown. The op-
posite sex were represented by Messrs.
Sherwood, Carnallan, Craig, Falconer,
Bird, Bragg, Bushby, Frank Brown, and
others. The next meeting will be held
at the residence Of Mr.. Justus Bragg, on
Main street, near Seventh, and none should
miss the rare musical treat that will be
provided. The echo is atloat that this
club will in the near future, give their
many friends 81 dramatic entertainment,
and there being considerable talent in the
society, THE TRIBUNE predicts much sue
cess for the "lvy."

A Deep Dyed Thief.

It will be remembered that Mr.. Hurd
recently missed an expensive sealskin
cap. He has found i, and also the man
who took it from the Sheridan House.
A young man named Dewitt Dye is the
guilty party and it is not his first offence.
While he was night clerk at the Sher1-
dan House several articles were missed,
but suspicion did not rest upon Dye.
Recently he was employed by Mr.. Nc
Farlane, the hide man. DR.. Porter wanted
a couple Of mink furs, and not knowing
Dye, purchased two Of him. McFarlanc
missed several other hides and institu-
ted search. A stranger one day brought
in two green minks that looked suspic-
1ous. McFarlane asked him where he
obtained them, and learned that he
bought them Of Dye. That settle,l it.
One of them corresponded precisely with
the marks where it had hung on the door
to dry Dye was arrested and lodged il
iai. Before this occurrence he pawncd
Hurds cap to G. D. Herbert for So.
Hurd saw the cap, recognized it as his,
and finding out where be obtained it
went mp to the Jail to get the confession
OF Dye to the theft, which he obtained in
his own writing Dye has enough against
him to send him over the road-his just
deserts. He was discharged from the ser
vice fo, thieying and he is said to be Il
sort of kleptomaniac. There are one or
two more of these sneak thieves in the
city of whose trails the officers have Il
strong scent.

Auntie's,' was the reply. "Oh-h-h ma
ma," said the urchin, I'D never say that
anybody's things were better than my

boy. No boy will ever turn out bad who
has planted in his heart SO pure strain
of til1al love. What is there in life that
yields so much pleasure as love Of home
and neither? Where is there anything in
heaven or earth to compare with domes-
tic bliss? The child that worships his
mother, or if she is gone, who lives in her
memory and still labors to please her will
never come to a bad end. And so the
wife who lives for home, husband and
children, never permitting any one or
anythlng; to supplant them in her atfec-
tions, is more than likely to%Sapass along
the shady side of life in peit..attt1al bliss,

Manager Whitney made a decided hit
when he obtained the charming Miss
Douglas, the dashing serio-cemic vocalist.
Her bewitc hing ways and pretty figure
has done much toward filling the house
the past week in opposition to various
other entertainments. Miss Wells still
continues and is undoubtedly the best
singer ever upon the Bismarck stage. Her
sister W i'll be here next week and the two
will sing their Duet specialties which
are pronounced very fine. Germ and Hay
den still remain to please and are excellent
general and speciality artists. Tommy Le-
vard always brings down the house in his
Irish sketches and break downs. Miss
Peasley has left for the Hills, and Blanche
Granger's engagement has also termina-

one of the best general performers in the

LOST on THE PRAIRIE.
A Party Who Might Have Perished

in the Storm.
Last evening was not much of a night
for sleigh-riding but it wasra great night
for fun. Quite a number Of ladies and
gentlemen repaired to the residence of
Mr.. Cameron, about four miles from the
city, and were kindly received by that
gentleman and his wife, assisted by Misses
Maggie Cameron and Mary Falconer.
Dancing and other amusemants combined
to make the affair one of thejolliest of the
season. 1t is a good thing that Mr. Cam
eron left light burning in the window,
for when the party turned homeward the
storm was raging to such an extent that
even the old pioneer Hurd lost his way,
and, after wandering around for about an
hour, returned to the scene of their even
ing's sport only to find that the rest OF the
party had had a similar experience, ana
also returned. All joined in the exclam-
tion, I'VE won't go home tin morning, be-
cause we do not know the way" and
danced on until daybreak. Among those
present were Mr.. and Mrs. Bragg, Mr and
Mrs. Call, Mr.. and Mrs. Weaver, Mr.. and
Mrs. Marshall, DR.. and Mrs. Porter, Mrs.
Bid, Misses Bird, Curtis, the Misses Bent
ley, Misses Powers, Green, Mcdonald,
