NEW PROPRIETOR. The Bush Hous
at Bellefonte is just now undergoing
thorough process of repapering and re-
painting, from top to bottom, and will
also be furnished with new furniture
throughout, after all which new pro-
prietor takes charge ; an experienced
hotelist of New York, we are inform
ed.
The welcome rain has come at last.
Saturday night, Sunday and Sunday
night, it rained very freely at intervals
winding up with h eayy thu ndershow-
er on Sunday evening. We had a fair
lied rain the other Saturday morning,
but the earth was so dry that it did not
do much good. The rain on Saturday
and Sunday however was amply suf-
ficient to saturate old mother earth
thoroughly. All the growing crops
have received big lift.
-Hada private letter from Mr.. +
| 0. MetZger, who is now in Philadel-
phia, from which we learn that Fred
likes that little village and his own sit
uation quite well. Glad to hear it, Fred
and shall always rejoice in your success.
But don't-for goodness sake-don't ask
US to write bong letters telling you how
Jack and Jill, their brothers, cousins,
uncles and aunts, are getting along.
Can't possibly do it. Very often we
answer our letters by sending the Jour
nal, and this is generally altogether sat
isfactory.
-Snook's Mill over at Pine Greek
has tip-top miller in the person of
Mr.. Valentine Breon. That is our
! GUIDE ,chife says so, and that is absolute
ly conclusive every time.
BY the way we know "FeltY" like a
look. La sakes, we well remember
guess he does too-how we usedto spank
him, some twenty eight years ago-not
for making poor -four but for reasons
quitedifferent. How times do change
people too.
| The CENTRAL STATE NORMAL
SCHOOL at Lock Haven, is one of the
best institutions of learning in the
state that it enjoys very prosperous
career. Our teachers who contemplate
acquiring higher degree of attain.
ments and consequent usefulness
would do well to attend the Central
State Normal for a session or several
sessions. Read the advertisement in
another column.
1t is pretty generally conceded that
none of the candidates for President
will stand any chance at all for NOM
ination unless clad in one of Levin
best suits. We had thought of max
ing arrangements with Mr.. Levin
soon-guess we will-to have a brand
new uniform made for GEN. HANCOCK,
thGGnest looking man, the best gen.
eral an altogether the most popular,
most available candidate of them all.
