While she custom may sppea: somewhat obsolete to nome the WATCHMAN still ad- heres to she practice of not issuing a paper duriog Christmas week. For fifty weeks in the year the printers are on duty regu- larly withoat taking the customary holi- day enjoyed by people in most every other oalling, benoe the desire of every one, from she editor down to the devil, to keep the Holidays wo true boliday fashion. For this zeason no paper will be issued from this office nuxt week, and the next iszue of the WATCHMAN will therefore reach its read- ers on Friday morning, Janoary 3rd. Hoping vou like this week's greeting we wish youn all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Leovard Rhone, of Centre Hall, bas leased his farm, ‘‘Rooneymede,”’ CexTRE CoUNTIANS LOOKING YOR BiG FORTUNE. —Jast two and a hall centuries ago Peter and Isaac Van Horn emigrated from Germany and settled on the land on which the larger part of the city of New York now stands. The above fact can be proven by undisputed records. Twenty-five years ago the fifth and sixth generations of the heirs of Peter and Isaac Van Horn started an investigation which they claimed revealed the fact shat the Van Horn’s bad never sold the ground, or received any equivalent therefore, on which New York was built, but bad mere- ly leased the same. Then they began to figure and the figuring bas been kept up antil the presents time and now they imag- ine, or rather claim, that there isa vast fortune coming to them from the city of New York. A fortune that has been acoum- ulating all these years until now it amounts to $180,000,000. And they con- fidently expeot that they are going to get it, too. What makes the above of interest is the fact that William Aikey, of Roland, Her- man Aikey, of Lewistown ; Theodore Ai- key, Mis. James Gregu, Edward Strable, William and Thomas Barnhart, of Belle- foute, are all undisputed legal heirs of the sixth generation. They bave employed Col. H. 8. Taylor as their attorney and he has been in conference with the attorney in New York who represents the heirs and has been assared that the whole thing will soon be settled up. [Io fact to be plain, the story came from New York iu the be- ginning of last week that the attorney for the Vao Horn heirs had an appointment to meet the attorney for New York city on Wednesday night when everything would be settled. Friday word was received that the attorneys bad their conference but failed to come to an agreement and would have another meeting on Saturday night when a final settlement would be made. This week word was received that on Sas- urday night the Van Horn estate attorney could not find the other attorney but that he surely would get things settled up this week. And with sublime faith the heirs believe and are confidently waiting for their part of the estate, which, quite naturally, will be no mean sum. All told there are about three hundred and fifsy heirs and with a forsuve of $1%0,000,000 to divide i$ would mean $500,000 to each heir with five mil- lion dollars left to pay the lawyers fees. What entrancing visions of great wealth! ewe BELLEFONTE MEAT CONDEMNED. — Last week we mentioned the fact that two meat inspectors of the state pure food depart- ment had been in Bellefonte and made an inspeotfon of the slaughter houses and butcher shops of the town. At the time we stated that a number of changes were suggested to insure a more complete sani- tary condition. From the report of the inspectors we learn that in this place twen- ty hve pounds of veal was found that wonld not pass inspection and was con- demned, and that in a meat market at Pleasant Gap one hundred pounds of saa- sage was found whioh had become shriveled up and mouldy on account of age and was being soaked in salt water to freshen it and remove the mould. The agents also found in this locality one or more butchers using water from the creek in the pepara- tion of ponhaus, ete., and that at certain it Potter township, to Cloyd Brooks, of | gjaughter houses the stock pens were built Harris township, who will take possession | of same April first, 1908. ago is mach improved, while that of Miss Ella MoClaiv, who is ill with typhoid fe- wer, i= as hopeful as can be expected. ——— Wesley Jarrett is thinking of going %o farming in the spring, if he can fied a farm %0 soit bum.

A badly sprained ankle was the result. ~The improvements on south Water street were practically completed this week.

Furst prize was held last Friday afternoon before quite an audience of friends of the institution. There were six contestants aod they all did remarkably well. Judges, Clement Dale Esq., Charles R. Kurtz and George R. Meek, awarded first prize to George Lutz Hornbrooke, of Wheeling, W. Va., whose subject was, “‘Spartacus to the Gladiators as Carpas,”’ and second prize to Edmund Joseph, of Bellefonte, who talked on “The Uncon- scious Greatness of Stonewall Jackson.” Friday evening Mr. and Mis. James R. Huaghes gave a reception to the students in the academic grade at the fraternity house on the hill which proved a very pleasant gathering. —— RAILROAD MEN ON A TRIP.—On Tues- day Bellefonte was visited by quite a bunch of railroad men. The crowd was made up of trainmassers from Philadel- phia, Pittsburg, Harrisburg and Altoona, ander escort of superintendent J, K. John- son and traiomaster R. B. Freeman, of Tyrone, in an educational trip over the Bald Eagle Valley railroad. The party included twelve gentlemen five of whom had never made a trip over the Balé Eagle Valley road. They not only made the full trip over the Bald Eagle but went over the Snow Shoe as well, returning to Bellefonte in the evening and going to the Country club for supper. mn AA isan, Licexsg CoUuRrT.— License cours for Cen- tre county was held last Saturday and just thirty-seven applications were presented to Judge Eliis L. Orvis. The list included twenty-nine applications for a tavern (ho- tel) license, six wholesale, one distiller and one brewer's license. This number was just two more tavern licenses and one wholesale more than was granted last year. There was no remonstrance against any of the applications. As the date for the li- oense year does not begin nntil April 1st, 1908, is is quite likely the court will take ample time for the consideration of the va- rious applications before he bands down his decisions.

Con- fer, as Yaruvell, boiled down a five gallon keg of cider which they carefully stored away in the cellar with pleasant visions of the many juicy mince pies t would help to flavor during the winter. Bat, alas, when they went to make up the first mess of meat they found the cider barrel entirely empty, some thief having sneaked into the unlocked cellar and stolen every drop of it. Of course, they have suspicions but no proof as to the identity of the thiel. see ——For six days the big safe in the store of the Clarence Supply company, at Clar- ence, was looked and could not be opened by any member of the firm because the combination was ous of order. The safe contained considerable money, a number of notes and all the books of the firm. Fi. nally Frank E. Harder, the expert lock- smith, of Lock Haven, was sent for aud on Monday he went to Ciarence and in just five minutes bad the safe open. The tron: ble was caused by the tumblers slipping. Mr. Harder took the lock apart, repaired and oiled it, then reset the combination and now it works with clock-like precision. eo ——There never was a better illustration of how the majority of Bellefonters strive to keep the Sabbath holy(?) than last San- day. All day the pavements were covered with from two to three inches of snow and slush that could have heen removed with a minimum of effort and yet on both High and Allegheny streets,the two main streets of travel in the town, there were less than a dozen places where the pavement was cleaned. And the result was that by Mon- day the pavements were a mass of ice that rendered traveling over them most pre- carious, if not dangerous. While it is en- tirely proper to defer all work on Sunday it seems to us only reasonable that under such cironmstances as last Sunday property owners and business men should exercise only precautionary judgment and olean off their pavements; or else there should be a more strict ordinance relating to the mat- ter which would enable the street commis- sioner to have the same done at the prop- erty owner's expense. Out from the main part of the town the residents are evident- ly not so religious as most every pavement aud walk was cleaned off the first thing Sunday morning. AT THE BELLEFONTE HOSPITAL. ~The | new building of the Bellefonte hospital is ! now so far completed that the woman's ward has been moved from the first floor of the old building to the second floor of the new. The men’s ward has been moved to the one formerly ocoupied by the women while the office has been moved into the room heretofore used as the men’s ward. The third floor of the new bailding is be- ing ocoupied by Miss Calderwood, the su- perintendert. The room there was fur- nished by the women of Howard. On the first floor of the new building will be located the operating room, ether- izing and sterilizing rooms, medicine clos. ets and a ward with two beds to be lurnish- ed by the Bellefonte Lodge of Elks. The operating room is now being furnished as fast as possible, and when completed it will be one of the nicest and bess in any hospital outside the cities. For the equip- ping of the operating department the grand- children of Mrs. Andrew Gregg Cartin have given the sum of $2,200 as a memo- rial to her. Whatever of this amount may be left after the rooms are equipped will he invested and the income used to purchase instruments as they may be needed. At the rate she work is now being pushed is will not be long until the entire new build- ing will be ready for occupanoy. coe AN IuL-FATED FaMILY.— William Myers, of Beech Creek, was badly injared while at work in the mines of the Penn- sylvania Fire Brick company at Orvis, on Monday. He was tamping a charge of half a stick of dynamite in a hole in the rock when it exploded and shot upwards, the force of it striking him in the face. The left eye ball was blown out of the socket and huang expended by the ligaments on the man’s cheek. His face was lacerated and his body badly braised while is is feared the concussion may have broken his ear drums and rendered him permanently deaf. The only fortunate thing is that the sight of the right eye was not destroyed. He was taken to the Lock Haven hospital where he iz under treatment. The young wan, who is only twenty-five years old, isason of Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Myers, wio live near the Quay school house and with whom he made his home. Eighteen months ago his brother James died of acute pnenmonia and it was only a year since William lost bis wife. Claude, another brother, had his hip broken in a fall of clay while working in the mines several years ago, and the wife of another brother ‘died recently, so that bad luck seems to bave been their portion for some time. ee TR THE Barrnesaie or 1907. —Talk of Jove with bis thunderbolts; since the world began there bas never been anything to compare with the power concentrated in the first-class battleships participating in the great naval attack to be seen at Lyman H. Howe's exhibition at Garman’s on Tuesday evening, December 24th. What impresses everyone is the consciousness of the forces of destruction hidden in the re- cesses of these floating fortresses—forces tbat appall the imagination. It is as ir resistible as the swelling of the ocean tide or the hand of Death itself. 10,000 tons of dead weight driven forward by the frantic energy of 14.000 horse power, plunging and sarging through moontain- ous waves, at a speed of 10 feet every second and with a momentum for which there is no comparison—this is the scene depicted ty Mr. Howe. Without actually seeing it, no intelligence can conceive the grand- eur of such power. The Elks’ parade in Philadelphia, Diamond Mimug in Africa, Yachting at Cowes, England, A Stag Hunt in France, The Victoria Falls in Africa and many intensely interesting scenes throughout. Don’t [ail to see it. ——— a moos ns SALVATION ARMY CHRISTMAS DINNER. —Ever sinoe there has been a local branch of the Salvation Army in Bellefonte it has been their custom to give a Christmas din- ner to the poor as well as baskets of good things to deserving families. More than one poor household has been brightened for the day by this big act of unselfish charity upou the part of these earnest work- ers in the Master's cause, but they cannot do this unaided. They must have the co- operation of the open: hearted people of the town in order to be able to give to the poor as they with to do. They are now going around soliciting help for this parpose and they should meet with liberal responses. Aopythiog that will help make up a Christ- mas dinver will be acceptable: Turkeys, chickens, bread, cakes, pies, fruits, candy and nuts. If you do not feel able to con- tribute a large quantity, give according to your means. Anything and evervthing in the above line will not only be accept- able bus very thankfully deceived. PavLiNg, THE HypPNorTisT.—Pauline, the eminent bypootist and mind reader, will be at the Garman opera house for three nights, beginning Thursday, Decem- her 25th, Christmas night, with a special matinee on the Saturday following. His work is of such a oharacter it is said that the most skeptical must admit that it is genuine hypootism and ne slight of hand work. The people of Tyrone, where Pau- line has been for the past ten days, say he is certainly a wonder, and have requested two extra performances. All who have witnessed his entertainment olasses is as one of the best of the kind on the road. Hypnotism is a cult that is constanly win- nig converts to a belief in its reality and Bellefonters will have an opportunity of proving it.
