    admiration and praise than the elegant
vehicles displayed by J. C. Condo, proprietor
of the Penn Hall carnage works. Mr.
Condo's display this year is unusually large,
and from what I heard said by visitors,
bandsomer and more stylish vehicles were
never before brought into Centre county.
* A day or two since I called iuto the office
of W. M. Grove, conveyancer and surveyor
of our town, and found him very busy mak-
ing a draft of a property located in Clinton
county, work which Mr. Grove is aimost
continually called upon to discharge in
neighboring counties. After the drafting is
completed and correct in every respect, he
makes a copy of it on carbonized paper, it is
then called a blue print. This he does of all
lands and properties be surveys. He showed
me several large copies which he printed
recently. They were beautifully executed
and looked more like engravings than the
ordinary print. Mr. Grove is a skillful
penman and in preparing drafts for printing
uses the commercial style of penmanship,
the letters being large and very plain. Mr.
Grove is very accurate and is regarded as an
expert in his business. Last year he did
considerable surveying for the State and in
one of the reports was referred to by name
in a very complimentary manner for effi-
ciency and the accuracy of his work.
Last week James Weaver, the Aaronsburg
health officer, made an unexpected visit to
the Woodlawn dairy of Mrs. C. C. Shook, of
our town, and inspected every nook and
corner to ascertain its sanitary condition.
All the utensils for holding milk were thor-
oughly examined, milk puils and bottles
particularly, also the stables and surround-
ings. Mr. Weaver found the sanitary regula-
tions more than complied with. Everything
connected with the business was in the best
possible condition. All the utensils, bottles
and tin ware were as clean and bright as the
proverbial new pin. The stable was especial-
ly so, no accumulations anywhere, not even
a cobweb is to be seen, and the cows look as
if they were curried, washed and thoroughly
brushed. Mrs. Shook and her manager, C,
A. Heurick, evidently require no instrue-
tions from the sanitary commission. They
know exactly what is necessary and requir-
ed, and have always mude cleanliness the
cardinal principal of the establishment. Her
dairy has a system, is a model, has a place
for everything and everything in its vlace,
It would be wisdom for all others engaged in
the business to follow and emulate. Mrs,
Shook is doing quite a large business.

Charles Evans Hughes, of New York,
was nominated today by the Republican
State convention hy an overwhelming ma-
jority and on the first ballot, to succeed
himself as goveinor of the State of New
York. He received 827 votes out of a pos
sible 1,000, as against 151 for James W,
Wadsworth, Jr., of Livingston county,
speaker of the State ass»mbly, and thirty.
one for former Congressman John K. Stew-
ars, of Montgomery.
The Result in Maine.
Portland, Me., Sept. 15.—The Repub-
licans carried Maine by about 7100
plurality, as against 26,191 in the last
presidential year, and 8064 in 1906.
Returns from 468 out of 519 cities,
towns and plantations in the state,
gave for governor:
Bert M. Fernald, Republican, 72,117,
and Obadiah Gardner, Democrat, 64.
993. In 1904 the same places gave
75,334 for Governor Cobb, Republican.
and 49,416 for Davis, Democrat. The
Republicans carried all four congres-
sional districts by about the usual plu-
ralities, Amos L. Allen being re-elect-
ed in the First and C. C. Burleigh in
the Third, while John P. Swasey was
chosen to succeed Charles L. Little-
field in the Second and Frank G.
Guernsey the late Llewellyn Powers
in the Fourth district. The legislature
will be safely Republican in both
branches.
The vote was the heaviest since
1888, running well up to 140,000, The
gains were mainly by the Democrats,
the party vote increasing more than
13,000 over that of 1904, while the
Republican vote fell off about 2500,
The Republican plurality is the small
est recorded in a presidential year in
twenty-five years.
Democrats Sweep Arkansas.
Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 15.—Returns
from the state election are meagre. It
is known, however, that the entire
Democratic state ticket, headed by
George W. Donaghey for governor, has
been elected by a majority which will
probably reach 50,000,
Primary Election at Wilkes-Barre So
Characterized By Court.
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., Sept. 15.—At the
primary election held last April,
Michael F. Healy, the Democratic can.
didate for the legislature in the Third
district, was returned as receiving
more Republican votes than Rev. R.
E. Williams, the Republican candidate
for the same office. The clergyman
took an appeal, claiming gross fraud.
Judge Fuller handed down an opinion
sustaining the appeal, which makes
Williams the Republican nominee. The
judge characterized the election re-
turns as brazen fraud and that “the
judicial function must be exercised
with strength.”
Woman Attacked By Performing Bear
Fort Plain, N. Y., Sept. 15.—While
giving a performance at a fair here
with a troup of six trained bears, Miss
Beatrice Woods was attacked by the
largest of the animals and painfully
injured before the brute could be
driven away from her. The bear bit
her in the shoulder and clawed her
face. The struggle of Miss Woods to
escape and her cries for help caused
the crowd to become panic-stricken,
and it was with difficulty that the po-
lice prevented the spectators from
stampeding. Several women fainted.
The excitement also caused the other
bears to act ugly, and this further
frightened the crowd. It was some
time before order could be restored.
Miss Woods will recover.
Parson's Ashes, Kept 20 Years, Buried
Burlington, N. J., Sept. 15.—After
resting for twenty years in the crema-
tory that he founded in Brooklyn, the
ashes of Chaplain John D. Beughlass,
U. 8. N,, were removed to this city,
and were buried at Odd Fellows’ cem-
etery in the family burying lot, Rev. T.
M. Eastwood, D. D., of the First Bap-
tist church, being in charge of the
services. Chaplain Beughlass for years
was president of the Crematory So-
ciety of America. Dying, while his ship
was in port at Nagasaki, Japan, his re-
quest that his body be cremated was
complied with, and his ashes, stored
in a Japanese vase, were sent back to
America.
Violinist Goes Insane.
Reading, Pa., Sept. 15.—Charles T.
Nolan, member of a family prominent
in Reading society and himself a vio-
linist of wide repute, became violently
insane at his home and was locked up
at the police station for safekeeping.
He is a nephew of James Nolan, who
was the Democratic nominee for sec-
retary of internal affairs in 1902. Nolan
is thirty-five years old. He graduated
from the Leipsic Conservatary of Mu-
sic and several years ago conducted
the wellknown Nolan orchestra of
sixty pieces.
Fears Loss of Wheat Crop.
Reading, Pa., Sept. 15. — The dry
spell is causing much alarm through-
out Berks county. If rain is not forth-
coming soon the winter wheat, which
has already been sown, will be a total
loss. As for the second crop of hay,
on which many farmers depend, there
will be none. The fields are scorched
and brown.
The Schuylkill river is very low in
this vicinity, and it is possible to ford
the stream at nearly any point. There
is also fear of forest fires.
Typhoid fever is increasing at an
alarming rate, A number of additional
cases were reported last week.
-
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., Sept. 15.—Mrs.
August Savokenas and her seven lit-
tle children were found at her home in
Luzerne actually starving to death.
The United Charities of this city took
charge of them and relief was furnish-
ed them. .
The woman's husband was killed
the Pettibone mine in April last, leav-
ing her penniless. Until a week ago
she succeeded in getting along. She
was taken ill, and according to her
story, her own people and the church
she belonged to, refused to do any-
thing for her. Owing to the crowded
condition of the various charitable
homes in this city she will be allowed
to remain in her home and will be pro-
vided for by charitable societies and
the coal company for whom her hus-
band had worked.
Charge Army Officers With Smuggling
Havana, Sept. 15.—The Union Es-
pancla in an editorial on Saturday al-
leged that the United States army was
smuggling into Cuba great quantities
of meat and other goods, thus escap-
ing the payment of duty. and selling
the goods, Governor Magoon has or-
dered an investigation. He will insti-
tute proceedings against the Union
Espanola if it falls to sustain itg
charges.
Drying Up For Want of Rain.
Wellsboro, Pa., Sept. 15. — Tioga
county is drying up for want of rain.
Wells and springs that never have
failed before are going dry and the
whole section is enveloped in a smoke
from forest fires. Cattle are being
driven great distances to water.
The sun and moon look just alike
through the smoky atmosphere, hang-
ing like great pumpkins in the heav-
ens. If the autumn equinox fails to
bring rain, and plenty of it, this county
will suffer as never before.
