A. S. Patton'e ice cream parlors are the center of attraction at all seasons of the year. Visitors to our city who test his cream remember its flavor and call again. It is enough to turn one against fellow men to be greeted by a loud laugh as you stike the icy sidewalk forcibly enough to drive the spine up into your skull.

Fiveof our young men, among whom was our devil, accompanied by as many fair ones, took advantage of the sleighing on Friday evening and made a trip to Marion. The Vanderbilts are said to baye ordered the Beech Creek run extended to Latrobe, whence a link of a few miles will connect the Beech with the Pittsburg and Lake Erie system.

G. Neville glass works. The ground for the glass works is being broken, and one of the questions uppermost in the minds of the business people of Blaireville is 'How can the people needed for these industries be housed?" Persons having money to invest cannot do better than build for renting.

Rev. Mr. Barker accompanied by Mr. Meredith who has charge of the choral cnoir will be in Indiana, uary 14th or May 1st to conduct special rvival services in the M. E.

church. The meetings will be continued at least two weeks. The character of the men and the success attending meetings elsewhere conducted by them the expectation of good res suits here. A cordial invitation is ex tended to church workers and non church goers to come to these meetings. Timely notice will be given when the exact date is known.

The Blairsville Land Improvement Company offers for sale some very desirable lots near the tin plate works. These lots are particularly improved, having eewer pipes laid along all the streets, and are choice residence tions. An investment in them, either for a home, a house to rent, or a good speculation, cannot be surpassed. A new plot is being laid out adjoining the A. G.

Neville glass works, where some fine bargains will be offered. For particulars write the Blairsville Land Improvement Company, Blairsville, Pa. 4f eD 4t On last Wednesday evening ten persons were baptised at the Baptist church in Indiana, and on Sunday morning five more.

On day morning the "Hand of Fellow ship" will be extended to over forty new members, received since the last communion, the first Sunday in December.

The church pastor, Rev. B. B. Henshey, surely has reason for gratitude and praise. Their house of worship has gotten too small to accom- mocate their largely increased congregation, but that will be remedied in the near future.

McLain The Children's Aid Society is still pur suing its work in behalf of the unfortunate little waifs who are without homes or friends able to provide for them Scarcely month passes without receiving some new cases, and as there are always more applications for children from persona in affluent circumstances than can be filled, there is no trouble in obtaining excellent homes for all who come under their care.

BLAIRSVILLE. Rev. Husted, of Cokeville, preached in the Methodist church here on last Sunday night. A number of our young people enjoyed a social hop at Town Hall on Jaat Thursday night. Miss Mary Long, of Freeport, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs.

John D. Davis, for several days past, turned home this week. We are glad to note that diptheria and typhoid fever, which have prevailed here for some weeks with such fatal results, have almost subsided. The insurance agents of Indiana county held a meeting here on laat Monday. We noticed Messrs.

Paul and and Thompson, of Indiana, among them. J. M. Harvey, our enterprising gro is having two arc lights placed in his fctore this week. He has also broken ground for a new house on his lot on Spring street.

Work has been begun on the new Glass plant here, and it will be pushed forward as rapidly as possible. It is the intention to haye the plant completed by the first of May. Dr. Robert Hunter, of Leechburg, who contemplates locating here for the practice of his profession, was here last week looking for a house. The doctor has rented the room formerly occupied by John Wynn as a shoe store, for his office.

There will be en entertainment given in the Public School Hall on Monday evening, January 15, under the auspices of the Young Men's So cial Club for the benefit of Mrs.George Kilgore and family.

There should be a good turnout as the entertainment will be excellent and it is for a good cause. D.

L. Murray, of this place, died at his residence on Stewrat street, on last Friday morning about 2 o'clock. Mr. Murray was a mason by trade and had the contract for the stone and brick work of the Rolling Mill and Tin Plate factory, now under construction. This work would have been completed in a short time, had it not been for his sudden sickness and death.

Mr. Murray was an honest and hard working man and one of our most useful citizens. He gave eub- stantial encouragement to a number of our public industries which have added so much to our material prosperity. He was a member of St.Si- mon and St.Jude's church here and was honored and respected by all who knew him. His funeral on Sunday forenoon was largely attended, a npecial train from Greensburg bringing a number of his friends and members of the lodge to which he belonged.

His remains laid to rest in the new Catholic cemetery, thie being the first interment in that beautiful burying ground. Death of Mrs. Juiei Shields. i The death of this most excellent Christian lady, which occurred on Fri-' day evening, January 29tb, at 6 p. was a surprise to very many of relatives and friends.

She was surrounded by her children and everything that tender and loving hands could do for her comfort and tion was done, but the appointed time for her departure was at hand. Her spirit winged its way to God, to enter into that rest prepared for her. Mrs. Nancy Allison Shields was the youngest daughter of Robert T. A11N son, one of the early settlers of Green township, at the place now known as Taylorsville, where she first beheld the light of day and where her spirit took its departure.

On January 12, 1843, united in marriage with, James T. Shields, also a son of an early ajettjer this county. Their married Jife of which lasted nearly fifty years, was a pleasant and affectionate one. Mrs. Shields was a lady possessed of an amiable and loving disposition.

She was the true type of a Christian wife and mother, and was devoted to her family to such a degree that she seemed to carry all the joyn and sorrows of her children, and her life was devoted to their comfort and pleasure. Wherever sickness or distress waa found in that neighborhood you would also see the kind, motherly face of this Christian voman, as a ministering angel. She was the mother of seven children, two sons and five daughters, all of whom are living except the oldest son, who gave his life for his country, dying in Andersonville prison. The immediate cause of her death was pneumonia. She waa in her 67th year at the time of her death.

Her body was laid to rest in the burial grounds at Taylorsvnie on last Monday, beside those of her father and mother. A large number of relatives and friends were present to pay their last tribute of noble Christian lady. FITZ3IMM058 ARRESTED. of Detective Gilkiason Recaptured. PITTSBURO, Feb.

J. Lewis. The death of J. J. Lewie, of Jacksonville, on Moniiay last, cast a slooui over that entire community.

Mr. Lewis was one of the leading merchants of that place, and was spected for his upi ightness of character. He was an intelligent and useful citizen, and an earnest worker in the Presbyterian church, of which he was consistent member. He was also well and favorably known throughout the county, he being clerk for the County Commissioners during the years 1882 84, in which position, by his pleasant and affable manner he became a general favorite. He was a devoted husband and father.

Miss Laura Ans- Ify gave a recitation which was highly appreciated. The mere mention that it was given by Miss Ansley is of iteelf sufficient to say that it was interesting.

Prof. Lang, of Indiana public school, gave a recitation that was also of more than ordinary merit. Miss May Ruffner ana several others rendered some interesting muiic. The guests voted the affair an entire success. It is good for people to meet frequently in euch social gatheringH, as it makes life more pleasant and we learn better to ciate each other.

Sudden Death of Mrs. David Stephens. This eudden death occurred on Monday Morning, February 2, in Cherry- hill township. Mrs. Stephens had not been very well for some time, but waa not considered dangerously ill.

Early Monday morning she remarked to her husband that she felt sick, and in fi.teen minutes from that time she was dead. It was quite a shock to her husband and friends. She leaves an in teresting family and a babe about four weeks old. She was aged about forty years. A Gold Bath.

Harry Carson, of near Graceton.took a cold bath one day last week, not even having time to put on his bathing suit. He attempted to cross over Two Lick creek on the ice to transact some business with his neighbor, S. B. Miller, but when near the middle of the stream the ice gave away. Had it not been for his coolness and good Judgment, he would have been drawn under the ice by the current.

The water very deep at that place. A Sad Accident. A little nine-year-old daughter of Edward Hughes, of Bathmel, Jefferson county, was killed on Saturday, January 23. She jumped on a aled. and, falling off, waa ran over.

Peter Moore, an enfeebled old soldier, who has been carrying the mail from Mitchell's Mills to this place, has been granted a pension of $12 per month and about $200 back pay. A. S. Moorhead, who is travelling in the interest of the PROGRESS, was on our street last Tuesday and seemed to be getting plenty of oxygen without buying it of Starkey Palen, or any other dealer in oxygen.

Out door air was rather a severe remedy that day. On Tuesday, January 26. the mail driver met with an accident, just as he reached this place on his way to Cher, rytree. One of his horses slipped and fell, breaking the wagon tongue. He secured auother wagon with which he reached his destination safely.

Dr. Spurgeon Dsad. Dr. Spurgeon, the noted English Divine, who has been suffering for some time from the gout, died at Mentone, England, on last Saturday evening. His death was painless, he remaining unconscious to the last.

His wife and several friends were present when he died. Charles Haddon Spurgeon was born at Kelvedon, Essex, England, in 1831. He was the son of a Congregationalist minister. In boyhood he joined the Baptist church, and began preaching while a youth engaged in teaching. At 17 years of age he assumed the pastorate of a church at Waterbeach.

Thence he moved to the New Park Street chapel, Southwark, London. While he Caught that baptism should be administered to believers only he served the Lord's supper to those who differed from him in this view. He revived the old-fashioned Calvinistic preaching in England, but even the severest critics of his theology admired him. Mr. Spurgeon's success was due to his sympathetic disposition, hia humor and his wit.

His teaching was positive and consistent, characterized by an extraordinary simplicity. His delivery was easy, natural, unaffected, his smile fascinating and hia voice sweet. From 1859 until near the time of his death Mr. Spurgeon's congregation averaged 6,000 persons. On eral occasionshe preached at the Crystal palace to an audience of over 20.000.

His only children, two sons, are ministers. unrelated and undigested facts.

Maj. Foley had an enviable war record, and was one of the best known Grand Army men in Pennsylvania. By his valor in the field he rose from the ranks to the office of major. He was married twice and his wife and four grown children survive him. Maj.

Foley was a cavalryman and had served several years in the British army, prior to joining the Fourteenth Pennsylvania cavalry, in which he served during the late war. He was a member of Patterson Post 151, which attended bis funeral on last Friday afternoon, at 2 o'clock. A number of Indiana county boys were members of his regiment and were strongly attached to their gallant Major. New and fresh cracken and cakes at Clements', Banqueters See Snakw. A professor and a doctor of this place, whose names we will not mention for fear of catching up with trouble, were invited to a log-rolling banquet by a prominent farmer of thia couuty some years ago.

The farmer had a liberal supply of good whiskey on the works and permitted the log rollers to indulge as freely as they listed. Tbe doctor and professor were not expected to help roll logs, which they didn't. Their part of the program was to help dispoae of the dinner, which they did. While on their way to the banqueting board the professor saw a little garter snake. It occurred to him that he might have some fun with the reptile, and he accordingly caught it and pulled its fangs by permitting it to bite on his silk handerchlef, then giving it a jerk.

After he had deprived it of its teeth he placed it in bis pockej, and the two proceeded on their journey. When they reached the house and all were comfortably seated at the well-filled table, the professor slipped the snake out of his pocket and put it on the table. It dodged in around the dishes, and as all were busy eatiiig no one noticed it until it popped its head out in front of a man in the middle of the table. He yelled "anake" and jumped back, and when he looked foi the snake again it bad itself among the numerous dishes. Then the professor and doctor both laughed and told the man that he had been drinking too heavily.

But just about that time the snake appeared to a man on the other side of the table. He also yelled. The professor and the doctor laughed louder than before, vnd told the host he must have supplied his guests with an execrable quality of whiskey. Then the snake ran across an open space in the table and all saw it. But it quickly concealed itself again.

By this time it had worked its way to the other end of the table, where the doctor sat, and, watching hia opportunity and taking advantage of the excitement, he slipped the reptile into his pocket. Diligent search was made both on the table and on the floor by all present except the doctor and the professor, who kept insisting that it was only an imaginary snake produced by the whiskey. As the vermin could not be found, their version of the matter had to be accepted. The host, who waa a genial, whole-souled convinced that he had been imposed upon by the whiskey dealer, and he felt so science stricken over the matter that he actually wept. And he does not know to this day or at least will not until he reads this article, how his guests happened to see snakes at his log rolling Punx'y Spirit.
