A Big, Julcy Melon, Last Tuesday the Adams Express com- pany cut one of the biggest and juciest melons for the benefit of its stockholders when it announced that the board of di- rectors had decided on a two hundred per cent. dividend distribution, amounting in all to $24,000,000. And it must bave keen with considerable elation that the PENROSE- controlled members of the Legislature read the above news and then considered that they helped to contribute the melon when they refused at the last session to passa bill compelling the company to pay the equitable amount of taxes it ehould pay in accordance with the provisions of its char- ter. Twenty-four million dollars is a big sum, in fact just double the express company’s entire capitalization. Of course the amount will not be paid the stockholders in actual cash, but will be given to them in forty year collateral bonds, bearing four per cent. interest. And when the fact is considered that just nine years ago the company made a similar distribution of a one hundred per cent. dividend, or $12,000,000, and that the present distribution comes as the re- sult of the accumnlated surplus during the past nine years, it can readily be seen how the public at large is being robbed by the exorbitant charges of the company. The Adams Express company is a com- mon casrier and as such is as much subject to having their charges regulated by an act of the Legislature as are the railroad com- panies, while an equitable adjadication of their rates by law would be a greater boon to more people than a two cent railroad fare. As they are now, there is no denying the fact that the Express companies are al- most as bad as highway robbers in the way they mulct the public. The most ordinary package carried from Philadelphia to Belle- fonte will cost the recipient thirty-five cents, while a certain Bellefonter a week or two ago was compelled to pay sixty cents expressage on an ordinary straw bat from New York to Bellefonte. It is such outrageous rates as these that enables the company to accumulate such big surpluses and declare such enormous extra dividends every few years; in the meantime payiog a regular annuval divi- dend of eight per cent. to its stockholders.

BPP ——— RoBBED TAILOR SHOP. — Last Friday night some person forced an entrance into the tailor shop of James Harris on Lligh street, by breaking through the rear win- dow and got away with a summer sait— trousers and coat—belonging to Hard P, Harris, a new vest belonging to a suit Jim had just finished for another patron,and an old pair of blue trousers that were kept in the shop merely for use when the work- men wanted to press their own. Evidently there was only one man on the job, or else the other fellow had clotnes enough to do bim. Whoever the individual was he had better not attempt tc wear the clothes in Bellefonte as the owners know them and will be able to tell them at a glance. - | morning of last week, aged 74 years.

While etandiog in front of the team an automobile came along, frightening the horses and causing them to run away. Mr. Ruukle held to them for quite a distance but was finally knocked down, dragged several rods and then run over hy the wagon. He was picked np and carried home and it was at first thought that he was fatally injured. He was badly cut and bruised, but fortunately no bones were broken and it is not now believed that he sustained any internal injuries, so that his chances for recovery are very good. Though the automobilists did not give their names they stated that they were from Tyrone. Persons who saw the acci- dent, however, took the number of the tag on the machine so that it will be an easy matter to find out the owner. Mr. Runkle states that the driver of the machine gave no warning of hie approach so that both he and his horses were taken unawares, It is quite likely a suit for damages will be brought by Mr. Runkle against the owner of the machine.

Danning, organist in the Methodist church, almost the entire score was gone over. Of course no attempt was made to as- sign parts on Monday night nor is it like- ly there will be for a week or so, as it will take a little time to develop just who is best suited to carry the various parts through most successfully. It is the pur- pose of the management to have the com- pany drilled so «= to be able to give the piay on or about July 18th or 19th, and to this end there will of necessity be practice twice a week. And even as that, it will require considerable hard work on the part of everybody in the company to memorize their lines so that they can sing them properly. Pienie Privileges.

RT —— Plant All Kinds of Produce Howarp, Pa,, June 11th, 1907, Myr, Editor : ~ With your permission will ask you to insert afew lines for us, As the spring has been somewhat backward we would like to urge the farmers, especially those who can reach the canning factory with produce, to plant all they possibly can, as the next fall's demand for canned goods will be greater than any previous year. We need all you can grow,lespecially tomatoes. As the spring has been late surely the fall will be late. The corn may have missed some places in your corn field, plant those places with to- mato plants; they will come with the corn, Or if part or all of your corn has failed plant with sweet corn. Plenty of time forit to mature for canning purposes. Hope all the pumpkin seeds which were distributed have been planted, as we will handle many tons of pumpkins this fall. Refugee and Golden wax beans can be planted within the next two weeks, will be in on time. Beans-and corn at J. Will Mayes’ marble works, Howard. Tomato plants for factory use at Mrs. Johnsons, near Long's mill, Howard. $2.00 per thousand to those plant. ing for fuctory use. Yours respectfully, W. F. LEATHERS,
