A WELL KNOWN ENGINEER IS GONE: — As a result of the terrible accident he met with at State College station last “Thursday evening Jeremiah Luke Nolan died in the Bellefonte hospital at 1:32 Friday morning. He was the father of locomotive engi- neers in this vicinity and left the service of the old Snow Shoe railroad when the Bellefonte, Buffalo Ran and Bald Eagle, now the Bellefonte Central, was in con- struction. Ever since he had been running on that line and had formed an acquaint- ance that attracted to him hosts of firm friends. On the evening of the fatal day he took the regular passenger rup out of this place at 4:15. Upon reaching State College he stepped from the cab to oil his engine and was in a narrow passage between the tracks ‘and the station platform. Some scenery was being unloaded from the express car and io order to facilitate its handling it was necessary to move the train a little. Fireman Sinick! Walker was ordered to do it, but before he started the engine he called to his engineer to get out of the dan- ger he was in. Jerry felt secure, how- ever, and directed him to go ahead. The result was that the tender and pushing pole caught him ; rolling him along the platform and crushing him horribly. As soon as possible medical aid was sum- moned, but it was impossible to make a thorough examircation of his injuries with- out administering an anesthetic, so he was put aboard his train and burried to the hospital in this place. Conscious all the time he talked cheerily to the solicitous ones abont him and even after reaction set in at a late hour that night and his suffer- ing became excrutiating he seemed to think and talk more of his loved ones at home than of his own misfortune. He died ‘with the Lord’s prayer on his lips. The examination later revealed that both hips were crushed and his spine fractured in three places. Though he was popularly called ‘‘old Jerry,’ more becanse it seemed a term of friendliness:and endearment, he was only 56 years, 10 months and 4 days old. He was a son of Patrick and Eleanor Nolan and was born at Cartin’s Works and when only 18 years of ‘age started rail-roading. After two years on the left side of the engine he was: given a throttle and every day of his thirty-six years of service was marked with the most conscientious atten- tion to his dusty. to his employers, as well as a full appreciation of his responsibility for the lives that were relying on him. It seems strange indeed that the man who went over the bank on the Snow Shoe at Fountain eighteen years ago, when his firemay and conductor were both Killed, and whose engine rolled over the horse- slice fill on the Central some years later ; as well as having passed through many less dangerous mishaps, should meet bis death while off his engine. But such is fate. .No one knows when death is nearest, : : The officials of the Bellefonte Central are not alone in their expressions of high regard. for | this man ; for to their apprecia- tion of his unfaltering reliability as an en- gineer is added the public praise of him as a genial, courteous, kindly gentleman. In 1868 he was married to Miss Henries- ta Walker, of Snow Shoe, who survives him with the following children: Edward, James, Elizabeth, Rebecca, Mary, Joseph, Anna, Boyd, of Bellefonte ; John and Daniel, of Tyrone. He also leaves three sisters, Mrs. Mary Reber and Mrs. Thomas Hickey, of Butte, Montana ; Mrs. Michael Murphy, of Emporium, Pa. ‘The tloral offerings were beantifunl as they were lavish. His fellow employees on the Central sent a. bed of roses, the Brotherhood men a head-light of white carnations and roses and heaps and heaps of loose flowers from Joseph Kelleher, John Cherry, Charles Keichline, American Lime and: Stone Co., Harry Otto, Mrs. Aggie Kean, ‘Harper Bros., Mrs. Mary Nolan, Mrs. Stella Nolan Johnson, James Nolan, L. M. Johnson, the Bellefonte Steam Lanndry and others. * That the veteran engineer was popular with all classes was evidenced by the unus-. ual crowd of people that assembled in St. John’s Catholic church for the requiem mass that was celebrated for the repose of | his soul on Taesday morning. The stately edifice would not hold all who were there. The honorary pall-beareis were Ogle Bar- ley, of Tyrone; Claud Thompson, Edward Whittaker, of Bellefonte; Theodore Van Scoyoe, of Tyrone; G. W. Rose, No. 52, Sunbury, avd Howard Crane, No. 287, Al- toona, all members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. The carriers were Irvin Ward,J. E. Stew- art, Ww. H. Huss, J. H. Trout, Charles Stratiff and Scott C. Smith, all members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, No. 467, Tyrone.

When he took chaige at the works he had apartments for himself fitted up in one of the old company houses, consequently spends most of his nights there. Last Fri- day evening he was in town and returned about 11 o'clock. It was raining quite hard and after walking down the railroad he hurried through the mill, on over to the office building. Just as he was about to mount the steps of the latter place some one came to the door and yelled : ‘‘Ge$ out ’o here.”” Realizing that all was not right Mr. Blanchard started to enter the building, but just as he did so a man ap- ‘peared at the door and fired point blank at him. They were that close together that the flame from the pistol barrel touched Ned’s coat. It was little wonder that it took him some time to realize whether he was really shot or not and in that interim the miscreant escaped. A half burned candle was found in front of the safe, indicating that the robber bad been surprised while at his work. —e Arent. THE TRoUT FISHING SEASON OPEN- ED.—Last Friday was anything hut an auspicious day for the opening of the trout fishing season. Notwithstanding the high cold water and exceptionally cold weather, the streams in thie vicinity were literally lined with fishermen. Contrary to the expectation of those who observe such matters many trout—and large ones—were caught both above and below the High street bridge in this place. It is safe to say that at least one hundred of the speckled beauties were taken within two hundred feet of either side of the bridge; ranging in size from six to seven- teen inches. It is also noteworthy that nearly all of the catches were made be- tween seven and eight o’clock in the morn- ing, so that the fellow who staid up all night in order to be firet on the stream in the morning had little, if any, advantage over the one who did not get out until after breakfast. The large catches reported were by Charles Heisler, William Saylor, James Miller, S. Kline Woodring, Harry Night- hart, Frank Graham, Joseph Rightnour, Thomas Harter. Maurice Jackson, Dave Stewart. James Toner landed at 17 inch beauty, Ben Gordon got one 20 inches long in the lime kiln dam and Linc Miller hooked a'24 inch brown tiont out near the fninace. edn it fer lr FOUND STRICKEN IN THE MOUNTAIN: — David Runkle, a Pittsburg horse buyer, who had been working in this vicinity, was found near the top of Nittany mountain, last Thursday afternoon, in a totally help- less condition, stricken with paralysis. The man might have died from exposure there bad not D. H. Geiss, of Centre Hall, who was returning from this place heard him moan. Mr. Geiss called Thomas Grove, who was working near by, and to- gether they investigated with the result that a short distance in from the road they found Runkle lying on a horse blanket, with his buggy seat for a ounshion. His horse was blanketed and tied to a tree. In an unconscious and totally helpless condition he was taken to the Centre Hall hotel, where he bas since been confined. Yesterday he was reported as improving. his way to Pleasant Gap when he became ill and stopped to lie down by the road- side. He says he remembers nothing ex- cept that he stopped and tied his horse. PP ment A BELLEFONTE DAUGHTER ACCORDED A HicH HoNoR.—The national congress of the Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, now in session in Washington, D. C., bas brought a high measure of honor to a Bellefonte Daughter. Mrs. Wilbor F. | Reeder has been elected State Regent for Pennsylvania and will hold that exalted office for two years. While Mrs. Reeder had been state Vice Regent she was not an avowed. eapdidate for the higher office; so that her election: over Mrs. McCartney, of the Wilkesharre chapter, is not only a personal triumph but an honor that is greatly appreciated by the ‘Daughters of Bellefonte chnpter, which is.one of the youngest in the State. ~~ °° The new Regent is a woman of exceed- ingly pleasing personality and has force and executive ability in plenty to make a dignified head for this distinguished organi- zation of women. We congratulate the Bellefoute chapter on the signal honor. A FREE TRIP T0 FOREIGN Tass — How many who read this have been around the world and seen the strange and won- conntries? Imagine suddenly opening vour eyes and finding yourself in the wilds of Borneo, surrounded by dancing, yelling, gesticulating savages—the head hunters of Borneo—ecannibals whose occupation is the gentle art of collecting the heads of their enemies and eating the rest of their bodies, broiled, fiicasseed, or a la mode. How much more pleasant it is to have such scenes ‘brought before our eyes in the se- curity of our civilized conntry?

Tt is thought he was intoxicated and was run over while lying on the tracks; the motorman not seeing him until it was too late to stop the car. He leaves a wife and five children. ee ; ——Because a fisherman's basket ap- peared to be bulging out with trout was no indication of an extra large catch. The bottom of it might have heen filled up with leaves, suckers, stones or any old thing. It is within our memory that one, Robert F. Huuter, toted ten pounds of stone and four little trons in his basket for a distance of five miles and then just when he got within sight of Bellefonte, through the streets of which: town he intended to display the basket in which nothing could be seen but the trout bulging out the hole in the top, someone gave the snap away and Bob didn’t get any ran at all for all that work carrying stones. >oe STATE DEFEATED PRINCETON :—There is great rejoicing at State College over the crushing defeat the hjue and white base ball players administered to Princeton, at Princeton, on Wednesday.
