Of course it is not necessary to tell WATCHMAN readers anything abou: the weather of the opening day, Monday. They as well as everybody else knows that far gloves and an ulster were far more comfortable that day than the regulation fishing outfit. Bas notwithstanding the weather every man who owned a rod, hook and line, or could borrow one for the day, was ont good and early, his ardor for the sport in nowise chilled by the weather. Spring creek was the mecca for local fisher- men and a traveler coming in the pike counted sixty-five fishermen lined up along its banks between Pleasant Gap and Belle- fonte; and it is bardly likely be saw more than the hall of them. Quite naturally a number of Bellefonte piscatorialists were not content to try their luck at hom but went to other parts of the county; Fishing creek being the destination for the most of those who thought Spring creek not good enough while a few went out on Marsh creek. Bustin going away from home they made a mistake, as the best catches of the day were made on Logan's branch and Spring creek. Ol course we do vot claim to bave an ac: curate count of all the trout. caught on Monday but so far as reported the individ- ual catches are ns follows: From Logan's branch and Spring creek Charles Heisler caught 27, James Furst 29, Charles Aunder- son 15, Thomas Wagner 16, William Gar: man 21, Maurice Jackson 2 hefore break- fast, Ed Woods 11, R. B. Montgomery 5, Edward Robb 3, Kline Woodring 9, John Bower 11, one of which measured 14} inches; James Clark 8, William Walker 20, one of which measured eighteen and au- other fourteen inches; Clayton Brown 16, Bob Valentine 6, Thomas Morgan 14, Thomas Cowher 8. Harry Garber aud George Beezer went out to Marsh creek and came home with 9. They reported that Bill Haines, of Williamsport, caught 42 out in Marsh creek up until swelve o'clock. Dr. Kilpatrick also went to Mash oreek and made a good catoh. George Knisely, Ben Tate, Homer Barnes, Harry Gerberich and W. C. Cassidy went down to Fishing creek Sunday afternoon and alter fishing until four o'clock Monday came home with 61. Hard P. Harris and George R. Meek were also Fishing creek pilgrimagess, the former bringing home 11 aud the latter 3. F. R. Bassler, Russell Blair, Charles Lukenbach and two or three others composed acother Fishing oreek party who brought hack with them about 30 trout all told. But Fishing creek must pot be blamed for such luck, as we bave been informed that a fisherman who lives in that neighboshood had his baskes almost filled at noontime. Harry Winton, the condactor on the Central Railroad of Peun- sylvania, holds the record for the biggest trout caught on Monday. He went from his home to a pool in Logan's branch about six o'clock in the morning and in Jess than a hall hour landed a brown trout which measured nineteen inches and weighed al- most four pounds. But then the Wintous are evidently endowed with fisherman's luck for after school closed Harr, ’'s little boy, aged about 8 years, took his father’s rod and line, went down to the creek and inside of fifteen minutes had landed an eleven inch speckled beauty. ———— A —————— As TO THE CENTRE HALL POSTOFFICE RoBBERRY. — Thoogh almost three weeks have passed since the Centre Hall postoffice was broken into and robbed no definite clue has been found that might lead to the landing of the robbers. For several days prior to the robbery two umbrella fixers had been in Centre Hall and their disap- pearaace about the time the robbery was committed led some people to suspects them, but since that they have again been in that town and left on the train, going toward Lewisburg. Whether they were the two men or not, ny effort was made to detain them or even inquire as to their where- abouts as the time of the robbery. One day last week the tools, a sledge hammer and two chisels, stolen from Knep- ley’s blacksmith shop and which were used to force an entrance into the building avd drill the safe, were found under the little station platform at the Grange Park picnic wronnds. Of course the only clue the find- ing of the tools furnished was that the rob. bers undoubtedly went that way after they bad completed their job. And from there it is more than probable they would go across the fields to the mountains. ———— A ———— NITTANY FURNACE BLOWN IN.—Just about two months ago an explosion of gas occurred in the Nittany furnace which blew out many of the pipes and put the plant entirely out of business, the fire going out and the contents chilling. Of course all the filling bad to be removed, which was no small nodertaking. The stack bad to be relined and all repairs made, which took con- siderable time. The work was pashed so assiduously, however, that the plant has been pnt in first-class shape again and the fires were relighted yesterday afternoon. The toroh was applied by Miss Mildred Grimm, davghter of superintendent George Grimm, and the event was one of such mo- ment to her thas the entire Senior class of the Bellefonte High school, of which she is a member, attended aod the highting was made one of considerable ceremony. nual encampment of the Central Pennsyl- vania District association, I. 0. O. F., will be held in Lock Haven on Friday of next week and already the business places of that town are being decorated in prepara- tion for the event. The committee in charge has practically completed all ar- rangements and it is estimated thas fully four thousand members of the order will attend and take partin the parade. It is very likely a big delegation from the Belle- fonte lodge will attend as well as from the various otber lodges in Centre county. i smesmmrennen ~The family of Capt. 8. H. Bennison, who had expected to move to Mill Hall, bave decided to locate in Howard and mov- ed there this week. ot ~—0n Tuesday morning J. 8. McCargar was shocked to receive the sad intelligence that his mother bad died at her home in Groton, N. Y. She was a woman seventy- nine years of age and Mr. McCarger had not even heard of her illness, se ——On Monday while driving away from the Pennsylvania railroad freight sation Cyrus Solt’s horse frightened at the shilt- ing engive and in its struggles to run away broke a leg. The animal was shot by Harry Schrefller. The killing of the horse is quite a loss to Mr. Solt as the animal was only five years old and had been purchased only about three weeks ago for two hundred dollars, —— William White and Paddy Ryan, the two tramps arrested on Easter and brought to Bellefonte as suspects of baving robbed the Centre Hall postoffice the night previ- ous, were taken to Centre Hall on Tuoesday and given a hearing before justice of the peace, W. B. Mingle. There was prac- tically no evidence to connect them with the robbery but they were re-committed to jail pending farther investigation on the part of the authorities. ———— A] ao s——— ——T'he condition of Mrs. F. W. Crider, who is seriously ill at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Charles E. Dorworth, at Ardmore, shows no improvement though ber attending physician holds cut hopes of her ultimate recovery. Her affliction is what is termed creeping paralysis and hoth ber limbs and arms are affected. The pe- culiarity of the disease is that it is always worse in the evening and forepart of the night thao any other time. —— Al nn ———Mike Morento, an Italian, was in- jared at the quarries of the American Lime and Stone company on Saturday. Daring a snow and rain storm he stepped under an overhangiog cliff asa refuge from the storm. The clay and rook were wet from the con- tinued raios and a slide occurred. Morento was canght and while no bones in his body were broken he received a number of bad cuts and bruises on his head, body and arms. He was taken to the hospital where his injuries were dressed and be is now get- ting along very comfortably. —— GAY -—=Mr. and Mrs. William Harris, of Morrisdale Mines, celebrated their golden wedding anniversary last Saturday even- ing with an elaborate dinner. Both Mr. and Mrs. Harris are natives of England, the former being seventy-two years of age aud the latter seventy. They came to this country thirty-four years ago and for twenty-five years have been residents of Morrisdale. They have seven children, twenty-six grand-children and five great grand-children, most of whom were present at the anniversary celebration. ~The condition of Mrs. Jacob From, of Centre Hall, who is ill with cancer, has become so serious that it was deemed only an act of christian kindness to permit her husband, who is incarcerated in the Centre county jail on the charge of shooting Josiah Dale, to visit ber, and on Tuesday after- noon he was taken to Centre Hall hy sheriff Kline and allowed to spend one hour with his wife. The visit proved quite an affect- ing one. Mrs. From’s condition is consid- ered critical and hopeless, and her suffering has been 80 great that she is wasted to a mere ehadow of her former sell. ; CPO nn. ——Milan Walker, son of ex-sheriff and Mrs. W. Miles Walker, might very nat urally claim to be the cbampion walker among Centre county school teachers. Dar- ing the term just closed he taught the school at Rock, which is just seven miles distant from Bellefoute, and preferring to board at home he traveled to and from bis school every morning and evening. He taught one hundred and fourteen days so that the entire distance traveled would ag- gregate 1,506 miles. He made fourteen trips on his bicycle, thus covering 196 miles, so that he walked 1,400 miles, and he was always there on time. ——— A —— ——Alter almost a year's labor the re- modeling of Col. J. L. Spangler’s residence on Allegheny street has finally been com- pleted and it is now one of the handsomess homes in this part of the State. The addi- tion that was bails to it makes it large and commodious and afforded room for the in- troduastion of every modern convenience. All the interior finishing isin bard woods, principally maple and mabogany. The floor in every room is in bard wood and bighly polished. The decorations on the walls and ceilings were done by specialists from Wanamakers, in Philadelphia, and combine every beautiful and desirable ef- fect. The woodwork throughout the building was done by the Wetzel brothers, the painting and paper banging by 8. H. Williams and the decorating by Philadel- phia workmen. It is also Col. Spavgler’s Oop FELLOW'S ENCAMPMENT. —The an- BELLEFONTE CouNciL Passes A Cumr- FEW LAw.—Every member of borough council was present at the regular meeting on Monday evening. In the reports of the various committees chairman Hamilton, of the Water committee, reported the putting in of a new catch basin for the Howard street sewer. Chairman Derstine, of the Street committee, reported quite a number of pavements and boardwalks in the town in a bad condition and sadly in need of re- pair. The clerk was instructed to notily all property owners to make the needed re- pairs within ten days. The miscellaneoas business of the meet- ing having been transacted the speoial com- mittee appointed two weeks ago on the matter of a curfew ordinance made its re- port, presenting the draft of an ordinance as drawn by the borough solicitor, J. Thomas Mitcheli. The ordinance requires all children under the age of sixteen years to be off the streets and at home at nine o'clock from April first to October first, and at eight o'clock from October first to April first ; and that they muss be away from the railroad depots at eight o'clock all the time. The warning note will not be the ringing of the curfew bell, bat the blowing of the fire alarm every evening at 8.45 o'clock in summer and 7.45 in the winter, which will give the youngsters just filteen minutes in which to get home Of course there are provisos, among them being that children can be on the streets at any hour if accompanied by their parents, or if they have an explanatory permit from their parents stating why they are out. The ordinance provides that any and all children arrested shall be taken home and a stipulated fine be collected from the pa- rents, bat, in the event of the parents re- fusing to pay the fine no compulsory reme- dy clause is attached. When the ordinance was read it was heartily approved by every member of the council excepting Dr. Kirk, and while he filed no objections to the instrument asa needed law he preferred the inquiry as to what would be done with children who came into Bellefoute from outside the bor- ough limits, The police could take them in charge bat conld not escort them further than the borough line. Quite naturally the question was somewhas of a knotty one and was disoussed as some length, with the result that it was simply laid on the table, or dropped under it, rather, and the ordi. nance passed as framed, every member of council votiog for it. Of course it will now have to be advertised a certain num- ber of days before it will become effective. The following bills were approved and orders drawn : APRir, WEATHER A RECORD BREAK- ER.—The ‘‘oldest inhabitans’’ is now very emphatically declaring that the weather we bave been having daring the mon th of April bas been a record-breaker, as he cannot remember its equal during his life. And there is likelihood that the fact is troe. It may not be generally known but it is true, nevertheless, that although this is but the nineteenth day of April snow fell eleven of those nineteen days; and io addition to the snow the weather has been cold all the time, the thermometor hovering around the freezing point both day and night. And such weather seems even the more remarkable because of the nice weather which prevailed during the last two weeks of March. But then it is likely we will have nicer weather some time, about the Fourth of July, and then we'll all be wishing for just a breath of this cool atmosphere. ARRESTED AT CLARENCE.—Steve Ba- reato, an Italian, was arrested at Clarence on Saturday, brought to Bellefonte and jailed to await trial on the three charges of cruelty to animals, malicious mischief and threats to kill. Barento appears to bea sort of a bad man generally. He constantly ill treated any animal he came across and when remonstrated with by the proper au- thorities he vehemently declared he would kill any man who attempted to interfere with him,specifically stating that he would shoot the constable of Snow Shoe town- ship. Of course the constable decided he would not enjoy playing target for the Italian’s gun practice and thought the best thing to do was to give him a free trip to Bellefonte and an introduction to sheriff Kline, which he did; and now Steve stands a good chance of taking a journey over the mountain. BELLEFONTE UNIONISTS BANQUET. —About sixty members of the carpenter and painters and paper bangers unions ban- quetted at the Haag house, Thursday night of last week and the occasion proved one of the most pleasant of any of a similar obar- acter ever held by the members of these organizations. The meou served by land lord J. Mitch Cunningham was all that could be desired, while Smith's orchestra was present to enliven the evening with some of their stirring music. John Mo- Saley acted as toastmaster for the evening and quite a number of the members pres. ent made responses when called apon. ——Monday evening a namber of mem- bers were knighted in Constans Comman- dery, No. 33, of this place avd the event was made the occasion of a visitation of quite a delegation of Sir Knights from ¥ liamsport as well as the division sy QE — Residents of the village of Snow Shoe now want to have that town incorporated into a borough and bave made application to the court for such incorporation. mc A News Purely Personal ~Mis, Robert Irvin visited friends in Altoona this week. ~Mrs. M.
