Couxcin's DoiNags.—It was rather a quiet session so far as business was con- cerned, held by the borough council on Monday evening. Probably the principal disonssion was over the building of the state highway through Bellefonte, inas- much as the project bas now advanced to that point where advertisements for bids for she building of the road are being published. In acoordence with She per- mission nf the State Highway Department council has the say as to the kind of a road to be built and they have decided on the regalar limestone road from the north side of the borough line in Linn street to Alle- gheny.

Inasmuch as the Anderson school had thie week previons played she strong Kiski team a tie and no score game it places the Academy team as the superior of that famous western Penosylvania prepar- story school eleven. Tomorrow the Acade- my boys will go to Look Haven where they will play she Normal team. The Norma! team this year is even heavier than the Anderson school team, though the latter defeated them by kicking a field goal, the score being 3 80 0. On Saturday the Normal boys were defeated by Wil- liamsport Dickinson Seminary by the score of 18 to 11, and as only tbe week previous the Academy boye played the Beminary boys a no score game there is every reason to believe the Academy ought to be a win- per tomorrow, though at that it will foubtless be a close and hard-fought oon- test, -oe ~The Bellefoute friends of Harry F.

ER ——The Bellefont Central company now have their siding completed out to the big slag pile as the Bellefonte farnace and have begun the shipment of slag to North: umberiand. In loading the cars they bave in use the largest steam shovel ever seen in Bellefonte. It is a pooderons piece of mechanism and so powerfal that it is foroed right into the elag pile without the latter being loosened in any way. It isalso so large that with it a car can be loaded in & very short time. When they get everything in smooth-werking order the company expects to ship one trai load, or from twenty-five to forty cars a day from here to Northumberland to be used a8 filler in the big classification yards now being built there. An idea of how rapidly the shovel work may be had from the [act that on Monday is loaded a sixty thousand car in five minates with just fourteen shovels fall. ner — ~—Mr. and Mie. Chaney K.

They were escorted to the attic where there were other ghostly figures and where part of the evening was spent in various Hal- lowe’en pastimes. From the house the guests were taken on a trip to ghostland in the barn where there were ghost stories, ghost dances and other ghostly things. Bat notwithstanding the 'ghostliness of the gathering it was a very pleasant evening for all who were privileged to be there. an ns AGG oe —— ——QOne week from tomorrow, or on Sat- arday, November 13th, there will be a gen- eral exodus of deer hunters from all parts of Centre county, going into camp on the mounotaivs to be in readiness for the open- ing of the season on Monday, the fifteenth. The Panthers, of this place, will go ont in the same section of country they have heen in for a number of years though they will not occupy the same location they did last year. The various other clubs in the coun- ty willgo out to the same localities they bave hunted in in former years. There are various opinions as to how plentiful deer are this year, but the success of the hunters will likely depend more upon their ability to get the deer than upon the number of them in the woods. S—— A ———— —— Rabbit season opened on Monday but it proved a very unsuccessful day for Bellefonte hunters. Either rabbits are very scarce or she dry weather was against find - ing them as the majority of hunters came in without a single bunny in their game bag. It was only the very few who suo- ceeded in bagging one and two. With more auspicious weather, however, hunters hope for better luck. Chas. Moerschbacher and Joseph Thal were about the moss for- tunate ones we heard of. They got six- teen. Christ Beezer's party bagged twelve sod a wild sarkey while Mike Hasel's famous election day party was almost a fizzle, as they shot only one. — Kirk B.
