EpGar Nearuoor Nor PoIsoNED.— {
Two weeks ago the WATCHMAN published |
an account of the exhamiong of the hody of |
Edgar Nearhoof, of Worth township, who |
died on Angast 30th, after two nights and |
a day's illness and under what bis parents, |
Mr. and Mrs. George Neathoof, aud many
other people of that community cousidered
most peculiar circumstances, all of which
was published too recently to be repeated
here. The stomach of the deceased was
removed and brought to Bellefonte and the
next day was taken hy coroner P. 8. Fisher
and Col E. R. Chambers to State College
and turned over to Dr. G. G. Pond, for
nual ysis,
Dr. Pond has a reputation of being ove
of the most expert chemists in the country
and after making a most thorongh and ex-
haustive analysis on Monday sent to Col- |
Chambers his report in which he stated
that he found absolutely no trace whatever
of any poison. This of conrse does away |
with the theory that the young man’s
death was due to somethibg else thao vat
ural causes aud bears out the statement of
the attending physician at that time.
Just why an impression that the youug
man had heen foully dealt with should !
bave gotten abroad we koow not, hat!
there is now one thing plainly evident aud |
that is that if avy cue individoal has heen |
under suspicion the parents of the dead
young mau as well as any others who
shared their belief can now see how unjust
their suspicion, owing to their being no
foundation for it. And she parents, who
have heen well nigh distracted because of
the thonght that there was a possibility
that all was not right can set their minds
at rest 80 far as that part is concerned aud
take consolation in the fact that the in
sorntable ways of au all-wise Providence
were alone respousible for their boy's
death,

BELLEFONTE ACADEMY VS, KISKI AT
STATE COLLEGE —Bellefonters will have
practically a double turn at seeing the
strong Bellefonte Academy foot ball team
show what it ean do. They not only play
the Altoona High school eleven here to-
motrow afternoon hut on Monday will play
the Kiskiminetas eleven at State College.
In Altoona the Academy played the Al-
tcoua boys a tie game and to-morrow they
intend to do their best to make the game
a victory.
Bat it is the game with Kiski that will
be the hard fought struggle. When the
Academy played them at Saltshurg several
weeks ago they were defeated, and for this
reasou they have determined to pat up the
best game possible and give the visitors a
harder tussie than they had on their home
grounds. Therefore yon not only want to
go out avd see the game to-morrow after-
noon but go along with the 1eam to State
College on Monday and witness the contest
ap there, yon wiii get your money's worth
in both cases. :

“THE Toymakers.””—Wheo a man fidg-

curtain is ball down, shat tells the story of
dull old cbesinuts that make a man weary

hoarse. An eccentric old toymaker brings
his clectricdoll to life and her ensuing
droll actions around the toyshop and the
village, furnish the funniest situations ever
invented by mortal man. “The Jollities’’
are a clever company of good dancers,
actors and fine singers who do full justice
to this rattling good opera of ‘“The Toy-
makers.” The music of this new musical
absurdity was written by Charles D. Blake
aud John A. Bennett, who have put such
sparkling tunes aud rhythm into the whole
merry play that it will set the town sing-
