EE ———————— County Committee Meeting. The County Committee will meet ak the. Demooratio headquarters, in Belle- fonte, on Monday afternoon, April 24¢h, 1905, at 12.30 o’clock. The apportionment of delegates to the several precincts will be acted on at this meeting, under the rules of the party, and any other business thas may come ‘before the Committee. H. 8. TAYLOR, Chairman. ‘Republican County Convention. “Is pus one in mind of school boys," was the comment made hy a prominent Republican after the adjournment of the Republican county convention, on Tuesday; and really, he was not far wrong. The whole proceeding, throughout, made one long for the convention days gone hy when Hastings, Reeder, Dale, Gray, Hamilton, Steele Crissman, Eli Townsend and such like were at the helm and one conld always feel assured of at least an interesting ' time, however hopeless their cause. Bat Tues- day the entire reginie was new. Ex-J nudge Jobn G.Love presided over the eonvention, the first time in many years,and in his zeal to shove the treasurership nomination down Penns-valley he even forgos his parliament. ary tactics with the resuls that he failed in the only one thing be tried to accomplish. Bus then ‘the Judge is new as the busi- ness and was not properly backed up by bis prompters, Sammy B. Miller and George Wellington Rees. The convention started off slow, as it was just 11:08 o'clock when county chairman Phil D. Foster rapped for order and had the call for the convention read by Secreta- ry Rees... The roll call showed 134 dele- gates out of a total of 135 presens, bus the absent one sent bis instructions and these were voted in his absence, Charles F. Cook nominated J audge Love for permanent chairman of she convention and he was elected by acclamation. On ascending the rostrum a few of the delegates tried to ges up an‘‘applaunse” for him but is wouldn’s work. The ex judge was most profuse in his thanks so the convention for tbe honor conferred upon him and in his grateful little speech announced thas *‘Re. pablicans do still exist,” a fact he muss have bad some doubts about before. "The convention was fully organized by the selection of 8. M. Miller, of Philips-. barg, and Charles F. Cook, of Bellefonte, a3 secretaries and G. W. Rees, as reading olerk. On motion of T. M. Gramley the ohair appointed the following committee oa resolutions: T. M. Gramley, Dr. R. G. Alison, C. D. Motz, John P. Eves, A. C. Bowes, H. C. Woodring and H. S. Stewart. ‘Mr. Noah H. Swayne II, presented a res- olution outlining the order of business to be followed, which was adopted. The chair then announced the conven- tion open for the nomination of candidates’ for the various offices. S. M. Miller, of Philipsbarg, nominated Henry Kline, of Spring township, for sheriff. There being no other. nominee Kline’s nomination waa made by acolamation. L. E. Swartz, of Walker township; Isaac Underwood, of Bellefonte, and H. M. Alli son, of Spring Mills, were the candidates presented for the nomination for treasurer, and it required four ballots to make a ‘choice. After the second ballot Uunder- wood, who was the lowest man, was drop- ped and a third ballots taken, bag before the result could be announced H. C. Quigley, who was uot even a member of the conven- sion but who very likely was building on his prerogative as prospective county chair- man, strode rapidly forward and challenged the vote, declaring that under the prevail- gates from the North ward of Bellefonte and several other precincts, who had been Underwood delegates for first choice, were instrncted for Swartz for second choice, bus that they had voted for Allison. This was a contretemps neither chairman Love nor the Allison people had even contemplated and they were literally sweps off their feet by Quigley’s onslaught who, by the way, had no parliamentary 1ight on the floor at all. ed and he splattered and hesitated, utterly confused as to how to rule or what to do and taking advantage of his helpless condi- tion Quigley virtnally whipped ’em all in- $o line and Love said to count the chal. lenged votes for Swartz, and ordered a fourth ballot. When it came to voting James Harris and Aleck Morrison refused $o be coerced and refused to vote, bus it made no difference as Swartz was nomi- nated by five of a majority. © The four bal- lots stood as follows: . 2nd. 3rd. 4th. 51 65 68 Swarts... Allison....... as 5 70 63 Underwood 34 34 ~ i Four candidates were named for county commissioners, viz: A. V. Miller, J. G. Bailey, H.E. Zimmerman and Jacob Wood- ring. Is required but one ballot to nomi- nate Miller and Bailey, the vote being as follows: Miller, 72 Bailey........ 97 Zimmerman Sisaskarniiey 57 Woodring. ie 46 For recorder Cyrus T. Hall and H. H. Hewitt, both of Philipsburg, were nomi- nated. The contest between the two men was quite spirited bot Hall won by the following vote: Hallion dosti. itoat. 71 BEWIL.....coccocerirrrecvirsertoninrn scr rrr s 64 By this time it was almost 1 o'clock and the convention started in to do busi- ness witha rush. E. C. Taten, for regis- ter; Dr. S. M. Huff, for coroner, and H- B. Pontius and R. D. Musser, for auditors, had no opposition and they were all nomi- nated by acclamation. Henry C. Quigley bad likewise no oppo- sition for county chairman and was elected by acolamation. When the announcement was made for the nominations for delegates to the State convention some one nominat- ed Harry Keller, of Bellefonte, whereas Sammy Baddinger made a motion that the nominations close but he was informed he was a little previous and George M. Boal and William C. Hurley were also put in nomination, the three being elected hy ac- olamation. The nominations all being made Mr. Noab H. Swayne II, submisted an amend- ment to the party rules and regulations, which had for its ohjeos the doing away with the second choice instruction clause in section 12, of the rules. The amend- ment was almost unanimously adopted, after which the committee on resolutions made its report and the convention ad- journed. Committee Wants Correct Names of Cen- tre County Soldiers. . .In order to secure absolute accuracy in the names and spelling thereof on our sol- diers’ monument, we will publish from time to time the lists of certain companies 80 as to enable those who are interested to suggest changes in initials or spelling, and also to suggest the names of any persons who may bave been omitted from the rolls. This is the last opportunity which will be given to our people and to the survivors or friends of deceased soldiers who served from Centre county to have these names correct- ed. The Committee, therefure, appeals very earnestly to all who are interested in the stbject to carefully scan all the names to ascertain © 1st, whether any have been omitted; and * 2nd, whether the names of those already contained in the rolls are properly spelled. It is also very important that the names of soldiers who enlisted in organizations outside of the county or state should be se- cared, in order’ that they may find their place. among the nation’s defenders upon the monument. This is perhaps the most important thing which the Committee has in cbarge, the organizations from our own county being already well known. If, therefore, any person, in or out of the county, has knowledge of a citizen of Cen- tre conuy who enlisted in organizations outside of the county and state, it is spec- cially important that their names shonld be ascertained, so that they may find a ‘place among those who enlisted at home. Any communication in regard to these names addressed to Gen. John I. Curtin cr William H. Musser, Bellefoute, will recvive prompt attention.

Miss Knowles has a rich contralto voice and her artistio singing bas won her pronounced success as a superior vooalis, both at home and abroad. Dr. Lee B. Woodcock, of Scranton, bardly needs an introduction to a Bellefonte audience: They fully appreciate the privilege of again hearing his voice. talented former townsmen who will add so the attractions of the occasion ie Mr. George Nevin Brandon,pianist. Noah H. Swayne II, whose fine voice has won him such notori- ety since his residence in Bellefonte, is also down on the program for one or more num- hers. The ahove-mentioned would be quite sufficient to make the musicale delightful, bus in addition the services of two well- known artists of Philadelphia bave been secured in Miss Helen Frame, one of the leading sopranos of the Quaker city, and Mies Edna Turner Bradfield, a young vio- liniss. The latter has studied from her ohildhood with Gustav Hille, a master of violin technique who says he has only one pupil more talented than she. Miss Rebecoa Pagh Lyon, whose ability is so widely known, will be one of the accompanists. It is indeed most unnsnal to have pre- sented for one entertainment a musicale so fall of variety and artistio merit, and it is hoped all will avail themselves of an op- portunity so rare.
