1t required several pages of the Gar
man House register, last Monday, to con-
tain the names of the attendants at court
and others who made that hotel their
headquarters-Rot that the names of these
individuals were SO long, but because there
were so many of them.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed with
the grocers of this town for purchasing
poor butter at the same price they pay
for the good article and making their
customers suffer in consequence. 1t is an
imposition. Which grocer will be the

MIR. John b. McQuistion, Of Butler,
brother of our agreeable fellow-c,izcn,
Mr.. 5. \. McQuistion, died on Tuesday of

As the DAYS grow warmer people be-
gin TO think of their summer trips 20 the
seaside or to the mountains All the
summer resorts are hard at work getting
ready for the hot weather, and doubtless a
larger number Of people from Centre coun-
ty will visit them than ever before. But
people who desire good groceries can re-
sort to Sechler * Cos grocery store at all
times in the year, and they will always
find an immense and excellent stock.
The number Of newspapers published
in Pennsylvania continues TO multiply
with startling rapidiiy. The latest coutri-
button to literary fame in thi, direction
which we have received is a diminuiivc
but readable daily paper called the Sun,
and published at Bloomsbury, Columbia
county. Its publishers are Alcm b. Tate
| and X. W. Kahler. 1t purports to be
'fndependent in all things, neutral in
nothing" SO long as it adheres to these
high principles we bid It success.
Another Polar expedition is on the
tapis It ia to leave the port of San Fran
cisco about the fret Of June, with the os-
tensible purpose Of searching for the lost
ship jeanette, from which nothing has
been heard for long time. We hope tho
mission Of the investigating party may be
successful but we are absolutely certain
that IL it sails from pole to pole it will not
| find a bettery grocery store than that Of 5.
A. Brew & Son, of this place. The very
| beat groceries are brought from all over
the world to furnish the stock Cor this
store.
The first Of May is the regular time
for New Workers TO exchange their places
of residence and is with them one Of the
most important occasions OF the year.
Bellefonters can congratulate themselves
that this disagrecable duty Is over with
them for the year 1891. All the families
of this place are now comfortably settled
in their new homes, and If they purchase
their groceries of Sechler X Go. they can
live in domestic peace and happiness. But
the most essential requisite to the above re-
suit is that they buy all their groceries at
Sechlers store.
One Of the young misses Of New Castle
Is so infatuated with Thomas Murphy, son
Of the temperance advocate, that she drop
ped n note for him into the collection box
last Sunday and it was handed 10 that
gentleman on the stage by ono Of the
deacons, attracting the attention of the
entire audience. Phh'o Times.
Evidently, Mr.. Thomas Murphy is a
very captivating young gentleman, judg-
ing not only from the above occurrence at
New Castle, but from similar actions on
the part of the young ladies of another
place not far distant in which he took oc-
tasioa To spend few dAys
