The first copy Of the keystone Ga
sette, another Of Bellefonte's new week

edited and in its general makeup pre-
sents a neat appearance. But alas, it

thing" and her prices are rs low as
anywhere. II you need new headwear

"A Newspaper subscriber remarked
that he found 1t much cheaper to pay
| for his paper in advance than at the
end of the year. In answer TO a query,
he gave as reason that when paid In
advance he was getting something new
for his money, but to do so at the end
of the year was like paying for worn
out clothes there was none OF the
pleasure OF anticipation In the trans
action. That man was something OF u
philosopher.
AN ORNAMENT TO Town. - The
iron fence which adorns the front of
the prospective Fairyiew Cemetery in
the western part of Main street is a
substantial as we'll as ornamental i'm
provement. The arched gateway, bear.
ing the name Of the cemetery in large
letters presents fine appearance aud
altogether the affIir is a credit to town.
MiIlheim has made wonderful progress
sive strides in the last year as far as
public accommodations aTe concerned.
It has fire apparatus, a town clock,
a new cemetery and telephone connec-
tion with the nearest railroad point.
Enterprise and push truly are two pow
erful factors in community.
On Tuesday the telephone wire
was broken somewhere between this
place and Coburn, but it was very soon
mended again by Mr.. Kreamef, the r.
r. agent, and in the evening its powers
were tested by our band. The boys
were out serenading, when message
came from Coburn that they would
| like to share some Of the fine music.
The band played several pieces I'm Nus
| G. in or 10 fn1nnhnnn n
fee, and the Coburnites being congre-
gated in the ticket Office had the pleas
ure of distinctly hearing every note,
even at distance of six feet from the
instrument. This was something new
for Coburn folks and they enjoyed it
very much.
AT REST. Mr.. s. Mrs. Al. Harter,
of this place, were called to Hartleton,
Union county, on Saturday evening on
account of the sudden death of Mrs.
Geo. P. Ruhl, the mother of Mrs. Har-
ter. Mrs. .Ruhl had been in good health
and was feeling better than usual until
shortly before she died. She was enter
tanning some frieuds at the supper table
on Saturday evening and partook of
hearty meal herself, when almost in
the "twinkling of an eye" hen head
dropped on the table and her spirit left
the body for a higher and happier
sphere. Mrs. Ruhl was model wife and
mother, a tristan lady and an esteem
ed peighbor. Her death is an unspeak-
able bereavement to her kind husband
and loving children and the writer offers
his sincere sympathy in their heavy af-
Fiction. The funeral will take place to-
morrow.
