Our Candidate for Sheriff.

The Democracy of Centre county
are exceedingly fortunate in having a
most excellent candidate for sheriff.
During the canvass before the nomi-
nation no man was more careful than
he to say aught against his fellow
candidates. Starting in the campaign
comparatively unknown except to the
people of his own, and Howard town.
ships, without money or powerful
friends to back him, or push his
claims, he quietly went from man to
man, stating his business and present
ing his claims for the office, and at
the close of the canvass was nominated
because the Democracy were convin-
ced of his complete fitness for the Of
flee.
Our candidate is strong in this, that
he comes direct from the hard work
ing people of the county, he belongs
to them and is of them and when they
are in trouble and difficulty he will
know how to sympathize with and
lend to them, so for as shall be con.
sistent with his public duty, helping
hand.
Our candidate is strong in his De-
mocracy. Beginning with 1876 he
was for four successive years the mem
ber of the standing committee from
Rush township, and during this period
the Democratic party held its own, in
that somewhat turbulent district. The
fact that for four years he held the
important position of committeeman is
proof positive that he is a Democrat
sin whom there is no gnile.'
The Democracy are also fortunate
in having in our candidate a man
whose moral character, private life
and habits are irreproachable. To
whatever political party a man may
belong he will not and can not, even
for party purposes, breath word that
will bear suspicion against the unsul.
lied life Of our candidate. We are
glad to bear testimony that Of those
who were candidates before the con.
vention that nominated Mr.. Dunkle,
are all heartily and cheerfully sup.
porting him. If any one of these men
had been nominated to fill his place on
the ticket by the same convention he
would have, as a matter of course. ex-
pected Mr.. Dunkle and his friends to
support him. They and their friends
are doing for Mr.. Dunkle what every
true, faithful and loyal Democrat Is
doing by giving the nominee their
earnest and hearty support.

CLOSE or THE CATHOLIC LADIES FAIR
The fair and festival conducted By
the Catholic ladies Of Bellefonte for the
benefit Of st. Johns church closed on
Tuesday evening after two weeks Of fat
tering success. The most valuable prizes
were awarded 10 those persons who had
succeeded in raising the largest sums of
money for the useful and ornamental ar.
ticles In question, the plan adopted for
canvassing being to furnish each person
contesting for the different prizes with
blank book, in which 10 record the names
of contributors and the amounts subscrib.
ed The most expensive articles contested
for were fine chamber suit, gold neck.
lace, gold-besded cane and Il silver
watch. There were Of course, many other
prizes Of less value, but the four named
are all that is necessary TO psrlicularize.
The chamber suit was awarded 10 Frank
Carver, 4 resident st the Minebank; the
neck lace went to Miss Kate Crotiy, of
Boiling Springs; the gold d-headed cane was
won by Patrick Loughrey, division boss
Of the Bald Eagle Valleyl railroad, who
lives at Snow Shoe Intersection and the
silver watch went into the hands (or the
pocket Of Eugene Bradley, ton Of John
Bradley. Altogether the fair was the occa-
zion OF much pleasure and genuine enjoy.
ment 70 those who visited it--and they
were legion-and the ladies who managed
it are 10 be congratulated upon the en-
eouraging result The fat hog, which was
presented TO the ladies in charge Of the
festival by Mr.. Thomas J. Dunkle, the
popular and competent Democratic cAndi-
date for sheriff, was given 10 Mrs. Kate
Carney. We understand that the net
profit Of the fair will amount to some
thing like 81 500, which sum will be an
acceptable addition TO the treasury Of the
congregation. The members Of the church
entered into the enterprise with Il spirit
that was very eommendsble, and their
efforts were ably seconded by the untiring
energy and earnest work Of Rev. Father
McArdle, pastor Of the church.

Five years ago bill In equity was brought
in the Court Of Common Pleas Of Centre
county By z. u. Payne d Co, Of Williams
port, and William Young, Of Union
county, against J. HARRISON Holt, Of Snow
Shoe, this county, and John =. Harris and
William Humes Of Bellefonie, to compel
the payment Of the purchase money for
three tracts Of land in the northern sec
iion Of the county, bought by Holt, HAr.
ris and Humes from Payne & Go. The
defense set up against the payment OF the
money was that Payne & Co, owned, the
land as tenants IN common aud not as
partners, a. they claimed, and that judg-
ments existed against The different mem.
bcrs Of the 6rm which werca lien upon the
land; that The title 10 the land was defec-
tive; thst William Young, who cold the
land 10 Payne & Co, did not have clear
title 10 the same; and further, that the
surveys Of these three tracts were inierfer-
ed with by other surveys, by which large
portion Of the land sold was lost and q Sc
rious cloud put upon the whole little, thus
rendering the title ubmArketable. The case
vas tried before master in chancery,
who decided against Holt, Harris and
Humes and in favor Of Payne & Co., and
Young. The case was then tried in
court before Judge Morrow, of Bradford
county, who affirmed the decision Of The
master. Holt, Humes and Harris then
took an appeal 10 the Supreme Court, which
vas argued at the May term this year, and
the Supreme Court at its present session
in Piitsburg reversed the decree Of the
chancellor and dismissed the bill Of Payne
& Co., decreeing that they should pay
the cosls. The matter was in litigation
for Ave years and the amount involved
was $40, 600 Hon. S. X. PeAle, Of Lock
Haven, and Mr.. 20. Farst, Of Bellefonte,

TIOSAL BANK, SUED FOR LIBEL.-It
being the talk Of the town that Mr. z. G.
Humes, president Of the First National
Bank of Bellefonte had been sued for II.
bel by Hon. S. X. Peale, Of Lock Haven,
e1-State Senator and prominent member
of the Clinton county bar, reporter Of
this paper called on Mr.. Humes al his Of
fee in the bank on Tuesday last On the
reporter explaining the object Of his visit
Mr.. Humss expressed no surprise, having
OF course heard the common Tumor, but
he remarked that he had not yet any off.
cial notification Of the action Of Mr.. Peale.
Mr Humes did not care 10 say anything
on the subject until matters took q more
definite turn, and the reporter departed
without having obtained much fstisfaction
or information. At later hour, however,
the good fortune thst frequently comes 70
the aid Of newsgatherers In dull seasons
assisted this particular "snooper," and
from others he got 90 idea Of fthe,reasons Of
Mr.. Peale for prosecuting Mr. Humes for
libel. II seems that an important bill in
equity has been fled in the Court Of Com
mon Pleas Of this county By Z. c. Humes
against the Bird Coal and Iron Company
aud Others, one Of the defendants being S.
Il. Pesle. The principal allegation in the
bill filed Is that joseph Bird, setting as
president Of the coal and iron company,
without authority, rs alleged, Of the stock
holders, and without notice 20 them, leased
the lands of the company in Snow Shoe,
this county, for the purposes Of mining
and numbering thereon. II is also alleged
In the bill ihst the lease is an exceedingly
diEAdvantsgeous one for the stockholders
Of the company; that the prices 10 be paid
for the coal and lumber are entirely inade-
quAte, and that therefore some person be-
side the stockholders will be largely bene-
hied.
Mr.. Humes in his bill sets forth that,
from information which he deemed trust
worthy, Mr. Pesle, who has been and now
IS the attorney Of the Bird Coal and Iron
Company, procured this lease TO be made
by Mr. Bird. while he (Peale) was 10 be
personally benefited either by operating
the lease in connection with the lessee or
by making 3 sale Of the lease TO other par
ties. The allegations are most carefully
guarded and are set out in Mr.. Humes' bill
as being based on information furnished by
others, but which Mr.. Humes believed,
from the circumstances surrounding the
case, TO be based on fact
Mr.. Peale, it would appear, feels Ag-
grieved by the allegations contained in the
bill, and without waiting 10 ascertain
whether or not they can.be proved, be has
instituted civil action for libel, claiming
damages, no doubt, for The supposed injury
to his personal and professional character.
Thus the matter rests at present, with the
prospect Of some interesting future devcl-
opments.

Fall Managsment Of Bees.

In reply to frequent inquiries as
to the present outlook for bees and
their management for Fall and
Winter, I will say that the present
outlook for strong colonies Is fair
to pass safely through to another
season, and for weak ones very
poor and gloomy, with Deaths
shadow creeping over them. Up
to the last of July but little honey
WAS collected by average colonies.
From that time up to the first Of
October, bees, in most localities,
refrigerated, or did not hold their
own. AT present they are making
a eight advance, owing, principal
", to the Golden Rod and Flea.
weed and perhaps other late bloom,
which will doubtless carry strong
and moderately strong colonies
through. A large majority of bees
now are very weak and without
close attention and assistance must
suocumb to DEATHS cold grasp.
1 have recently been examining
some neighboring apiaries and
find over fifty per ceut. Of them
have passed in their checks, and
many others will soon do so.
Judging from what 1 have seen,
the loss by the beginning OF next
working season will reach from
fifty to seventy. five per cent. on an
average through Southern Califor-
MIA. At the present prices of sugar
and honey it will not pay to feed
many weak c0lonies-better exile
them and feed the moderately
strong. Ifsugar is fed it should of
the purest and best, as the brown
sugars are mostly adulterated and
would be likely to produce disease.
The feed should be prepared by
putting water on the sugar suff1
cient to dissolve it, bring to boil
and skim it until it is about the
consistency of honey, when it is
ready for use and should be used
when warm, but not SO as to melt
the comb. An empty comb may
be laid upon its side and the syrup
poured over IL until the cells are
filled, and then returned to the
rear end of the hive, SO as to more
avoid the notice of robbers; or a
coarse cloth that will emit the syr.
up slowly may be placed over the
top of the frames and the feed,
when cool, poured upon it and COW
cred tightly so as not to admit a
bee. The bees will take it up from
below. Care should be taken to
feed in the evening and not to
feed more than they will take up
during the night. Honey may be
feed in the same manner, the feed
ing may be repeated as often as is
necessary which may be ascertained
by examination of the hive. The
entrance shonld be contracted
from one half to three quarters,
and where top boxes are left on,
cloths or heavy paper should be
placed between, so as to cOnfipe the
heat as mnch as possible to the
brood chamber. All hives that
have been vacated should be exam
ined and if any moth is found In
the comb 1t should be removed
and the comb smoked over brlm-
stone, and returned to the hive and
it securely closed against moth.
Empty comb In a good working
season is worth its weight in gold
to the apiarist. N. LEvERING.
