Hendricks is now in the Centre county jail
awaiting triul on the charge of “‘oheck rais-
ing,” or forgery, but he bad a good time
where Hendricks is from, or what place be
time past be had been working in the
woods back of Howard for W. G. Shaffer,
of Mill Hall.
Oo Satarday he received biz pay in the
shape of a check for $6.70 and went to
Howard to make a few purchases. Goiog
to the store of Kline & Wolf he bought a
few handkerchiefs and some other minor
articles and gave them the check in pay-
ment therefore. Bat the check was dil-
ferent then as the figures on it stood for
$56.70, Hendricks baving quite skilltully
written a five in front of the six, though be
made no effort to change the writing on
the obeck. Mr. Kline took the check and
merely looking at the figures gave Hen-
dricks his change in cash, clcse to fifty dol-
lars, and 18 was not until late in the after-
noon when he took the check to the First
National bank of Howard that the forgery
was discovered.
In the meantime Hendricks bad left

be came to Bellefoute, which he did, and
word was telephoned to the authorities
bere to watch for him. Officer Dukeman
knows Hendricks by sight and be at once

in town looking for him bat failed to lo-
cate him. He visited all the livery
stables but got no clue, though it later
developed that Hendricks, on arriving in
Bellefonte, went directly to Bartley’s
livery stable and paid five dollars fora
horse avd buggy from Saturday evening
uuti! Sunday evening.
Hendricks’ mother lives at Valley View
and a man was sent up there to see if he
was in that locality, bot he was not. He
also has relatives ont at Yarnell avd that is
where he was fivally arrested on Sonday
afternoon. After getting the rig at Bart-
ley's he drove direct to Yarnell, attended a
festival on Saturday evening and spent the
night and Sunday with friends. That be
wust have bad a good time is evidenced by
she fact that when arrested he had in his
pockets but $4 25 of the almost flty dollars
he received.
Hendricks was taken to Howard and
held io custody until Monday morniog
when he was given a bearing. The evi.
dence against him being conclasive be was
committed for trial and was brought bere
on the noon train and pat in jail.
LockJAW PATIENT GETTING WELL.—
Lockjaw, or tetanus, has always been oon.
sidered almost certain death and is more
dreaded by doctors, perbaps, than any oth-
er disease. But Centre county bas a wom-
an who suffered in the throes of lockjaw
tor five days but will probably live to tell
the tale as she is now getting along very
nicely with every ohance favorable for her
complete recovery.
The woman in question is Mrs. David
Yocum, of Hublersburg. Thiee weeks or
more ago she tramped upon a rusty nail
which ran through her shoe and penetrated
her foot to the depth of an inch. Ordinary
remedies were applied aud though quite
painful for a few days the wound healed
without giving any further trouble. Last
Thursday, however, ehe became very ill
and Dr. Fisher, of Zion, was sommoned.
By the time be got to the Yocum home he
foond her suffering with a well defined
case of lockjaw which rapidly developed
votil ber jaws were firmly locked. She
remained in this condition almost five days
and the only nourishment she received was
what little milk could be forced between
her teeth.
Iu the meantime she was kept as much as
possible under the effect of opiates and the
wounund in ber foot was opened and cauter-
ized while she was subjected to careful
treatment for the disease. Early this week
her system began to respond to the treat.
ment, ber jaws relaxed aud yesterday Dr.
Fisher eaid that he bad every hope of ber
early and full recovery.
AT THE COUNTRY CLUB.— The annual
meeting of the Country ciub was beld at
the club honse at Hecla last Satuiday and
was attended by a large representation of
members. All the old officers were re-
elected with one exception, Thomas Beaver
being elected a member of the hovse com-
mittee in place of H. C. Quigley Esq.
The new hydro-eleotric plant has been
completed and for the first time the mem-
bers that night bad an opportunity to see
the house and grounds lighted by eleo-
tricity, which is a great improvement over
the old system of kerosene lamps. The
plans rans very smoothly and, while in dry
weather there is not water head enough to
rup the plant continuously at its full ca-
pacity there will likely be plenty for all
purposes of the club.
The annual clay pigeon shoot was held
in the alternoon with the following result.
Oat of 100 birds R. B. Freeman, Tyrone,
broke 71; H. C. Quigley, Bellefonte, 84.
Out of 85 John J. Bower, Bellefonte, broke
47. Out of 65 Chas. Rowland, of Philips-
burg, broke 26. Oat of 75 Geo. R. Meek,
Bellefonte, broke 45. Hugh N. Crider,
Bellefonte, had a clean sore out of 50
birds shot at. Mr. Quigley won the club
cup as well as the DuPont trophy.

— A visit to the opera house on Satar-
day vights is like a visis to a large city
park to bear the beautiful music and see
the lovely pictures. Bat we would like to
impress upon the people to go eatlier to
avoid the crowds. The seating capacity is
almost a thonsand, yet they are taxed to
the usmost to meet the rash, so great is
the interest 10 the music and pictures. We
can faithfully say no one offers more for the
movey. Don’t miss it. All for 5 cents.
Every Satarday night.

——The executive committee of the Cen-
tre County Christian Endeavor Union met
at Unionville on Saturday and arranged
for the annual conveation to be held at
Eagleville, September first and second. A
delegate from the committee visited the so-
ciety at Eagleville on Sunday and complet-
ed the arrangements with the local society.
He found the people there very enthosias-
tio over the prospects of entertaining the
convention, which promises to be the bess
in the history of the Union.
—— Abont midnight on Friday night
of last week Dr. D G. Stewart and Hard
P. Harris returned from the Country club
in the former’s automobile and as Mr. Har-
ris opened the door of the Palace livery
stable, to honse the machine, he was at-
tacked by the big dog which makes that
place his beadquarters, and which evident-
ly mistook him for a stranger. Belore the
animal could be driven off he bit Harris in
the right wrist avd band, but fortunately,
pot bard encugh to lacerate the member.
No serions resnlts are apprehended.

——Johu I. Thompson Jr., the little son
of Mr. and Mre, George Boal Thompson, of
Alto, narrowly escaped death on Wednes-
day morning ard as it is is quite badly
burt. He was with his father upstairs in
one of the stores at State College avd while
Mr. Thompson was busy making some
purchases the boy wandered away and fell
through a trap-door into the store room be-
low. No bones were broken but he sns-
tained a number of cuts and broises and
quite a shock to his pervous system. For-
tunately it is not thought he is injured in-
ternally and when his outs and braises beal
he will he as sturdy a little man as ever.
——The *‘Has Beens"’ fishing club which
was in camp on Fishing creek for two
weeks broke camp last Friday and the lass
of the members returned home. Daring
their stay there they vot only caught a
pice lot of trout, which of course were
eaten in camp, but afforded a favorite
rendezvous for automobile and other par-
sies and there wae hardly a day that they
did vot entertain a crowd of visitors. But
with that their camp was always wide open
aod their hospitality unlimited. The
Meek—Curtin—Shugert camp is now the
ouly oue oun Fishing creek and iv will be
kept open until the close of the season next
Saturday.

—— Maurice A. Jackson recently sever
ed his long connection with the Bellefonte
Trust company and has under considera-
tion the acceptance of a position with a
Reading insurance company. He will
probably leave Bellefonte about August
first and his going will not only removea
widely known and generally liked young
man bat it will mark the passing from this
community of the last member of a family
that was once a leader in almost every
phase of life in this locality. The young.
est son of the late George W. Jackson,
banker and miller, he is a fine young man
and one for whom we trust there will be
much of pleasure and profit in any posi-
tion he may choose to accept. J. H. Robb,
now with the Centre County Banking com-
pany, has been selected to fill the vacancy
in the Bellefonte Trust company caused by
Mr. Jackson's resignation and will go to
work in bis new position August first or
fitteenth.
——Deputy factory inspectors have heen
canvassing the various towns in the State
and inspecting the buildings in which mov-
ing picture shows bave been given. Many
of the places have been condemned and or-
dered olosed but Petriken ballin this place,
in which the Scenic holds forth, was pro-
nounced one of the best rooms in the State
for that purpose and only a few precaution.
ary measares were suggested. Hence when
the people of Bellefonte go to the Scenic
they can do so with a feeling of the utmost
safety as well as the knowledge that they
will see a program of good pictures. Man-
ager Brown is just as careful for the com-
fort and safety of his patrons as be is in
giving them good pictures, and his reputa-
tion for the latter is =o well established
that it needs no farther comment. After
an absence of two weeks Will G. Laye, of
Look Haven, is again back at the Scenic
singing the illustrated songs to the delight
of all who hedr him.

CosTRACTS
A WAEDED.—A$ a meeting of the Belle.
tonte school hoard last Friday evening the
final contrasts for the new High school
brilding were awarded. The general con’
tract for completing and farpishing the
bailding thronghout was awarded to Lewis
Wallace and Harry Miller for $35 601 13
theirs being the lowest bid fur the work
complete.
The board had some difficulty in award-
ing the contract for the heating of the
building because of the fact that they de-
sire to have installed the best system ob-
tainable. Five bide were submitted for
shis purpose bat as one of the bidders gave
po assurance that by his system the build-
ing wonld be properly heated avd ven-
tilated bis bid was of course rejected out-
right. The other bids were as follows :
E. Keeler Co., of Williamsport, $9,727,
with work to be done by the board which
would have footed up an additiooal amount
of $1,200 to $1,400.
Snyder & Raab, of Philadelphia, every-
thing complete, including toilets, $12,995.
The American Heating and Ventilating
company, of Philadelphia, $7.977, with
work to be done by she board which would
co«t from $1,600 so $1 800.
The successful hidder and to whom the
coutract was awarded, was she Bellefonte
Steaw aud Gas company, for $3,850, which
wiil include all the work with no extra ex-
pense to the board for apythiog. This bid
is guaranteed by the Boffalo Forge com-
pany, of Baffalo, N. Y. Tae system to be
installed will be the indirect beating with
jass enough rt diators in the balls to keep
the building warm at night. It will be
equipped with heat regulators or thermos-
tats throughout and all the material and
fittings will be the hest obtainable.
Tue walls of the new bhoildiog are fast
pearing completion aod will be up by the
last of the month. The big steel girders
are now being pat in place for the base.
ment floor and by August fires it is believed
everything will be in readiness to begin
the bricklaying. Mottled brick will be
used in the construction of the building.

BiG PEACH CRoOP.—It is not often that
one big peach crop will {5licw another hat
with favorable weather the rest of the sea-
son that will prove the case iu this county;
especially in the Col. W. F. Reynolds
orchard. It will be remembered that last
year his crop of peaches was unusually
first real big crop grown in his orchard. Ase
a rule peach trees bear trait only every two
years but thie year the crop in Col. Rey-
nolds’ orchard gives promise of being al-
most as large as lass year. The trees are all
beavily laden, even after the imperfect and
small fruit have been plucked to give room
for the perfect finit. The estimate of his
crop this year is placed at from ten to
twelve thousaud hashels. Other growers
in Centre county, and there area number
of them, will also bave good crops, so that
the yield of peaches in Centre conuty this
year will be as large if not larger, thao
last year.
The fruit this year is of an extra five
quality, much finer than that of last year,
and considerably earlier, as some of is will
be ready for market within two weeks.
Col. Reynolds this week received three car
loads of baskets to be used in marketing
his crop, and it is pot certain that that
pumber will be enough.
CENTRE COUNTIANS IN OHIO REUNE. —

meatiog old friendships and forming new
