| CONTINUED INCREASE IN BUSINESS AT
BELLEFONTE INDUSTRIES. —At a meeting
of officials of the American Lime and Stove |
company io this place ou Tuesday it was
decided to stars the plans on the pike north
of town jast as soon as it can be gotten in
shape. This will mean she firing up of all
the kilns there and also operating the
crusher. Instead of males to p Il the cars
of stone, as were used there when the plans
was operated before, a dinkey engine will
be placed there. The company is also get-
ting things in shape to put in operation
every plant they bave in this section so
that is will not be very long until they
will be conducting operations here oo a
larger scale than they ever did before.
What this will mean can be conjectured
when the fact is taken into consideration
that as they are now running they areship-
ping an average of fifty carloads of lime
and crushed stone per day, and when ron-
ning fall capacity as all their plants this
shipment will be inoreased one half at
least, if not doubled. The company recent.
ly placed an order for filty all steel dump
oars to be need in their quarries and the
slowness in delivering of these is one rea-
son that they are being detained in stars-
ing ap others of sheir plants.
The Pennsylvania railroad company now
has everything running smoothly in their
operation of shipping the mountain of slag
from the Bellefonte farnace to Northom-
berland. The daily shipment is now up to
the maximnm of twenty-five cars a day,
and with their big steam shovel and other
complete equipment it takes them just
about five boars to load that number.
The above hig shipments from the Amer-
ican Lime and Stone company and for the
railroad company, including the daily ship-
ments from the other industries hereabouts
as well as the regular local freight traffic
paturally .oakes business quite brisk in
the Bellefonte yards. Io fact the oae shifs.
ing engine avd crew now here are being
pushed to the utmost to do the work, and
at thas it takes them over regular workiog
hours every day. Under this condition of
affairs it is just possible that a second shift
ing engine and crew will be placed here in
the near futare.
Of course the’ above freight S$raffio does
not inclade any from the Nittany furnace
or contemplate the traffic from the Belle.
fonte furnace when it is put in blast. All
of thas is being shipped over the Central
Railroad of Pennsylvania and the Nittany
Valley roade, aud naturally makes traffic
over these roads better than it bas been in
several years. Taking with the above the
increase of business at other industries
hereabouts Bellefonte should have a more
prosperous winter than it bas had since the
good times of 1907.

TINURS.— Within the past few daye ground
has been broken at State College for eight
new houses which will be bails during the
winter. When it is considered that dar-
ing the year 1908 over thirty new houses
were built avd that up to this time shis
year over forty houses have been complet.
ed, all of which are occupied with an ever
increasing demand for mare, easily aso-
counts for the very high rents existing at
that place. Most any kind of a hounee at
State College rents for thirty-five and lorty
dollars a month while the best of them
rent for from sixty to seventy-five dollars.
With snch rents as that it is not to be won-
dered that so many people are investiog in
ros] estate and building houses there. How
long thas condition of affairs will continne
is, of course, to a certain extent uncertain.
It depends entirely upon the continued
growth of the college and consequent de-
mand for room by stadents and workmen,
and aleo a3 to whether the building boom
outgrowa the demand. Bas either of these
conditions is not anticipated for some time
$0 come by investors at that place and in
the meantime they will go right along

CoMiNG SooN.—'The Isle of Spice,”
the next attraction at the opera house,
comes along with all the momentam of its
popularity, originality and position as a
standard American musical comedy. This
season ‘‘Isle of Spice’’ has been rejave-
pated throughout. Not oniy new scenery,
new costumes, new song and dance num-
bers but a cast of representative
operatic entertainers has been added to
make the jubilee complete. That rollick-
ing, irresistible, old king, ‘“*Bumpaka,”
this season, is being played by a comedian
who has established himself in the front
rank of American musical fun-makers.
This is the inimitable Charles Pusey him-
self. With him is allied, as the soogfal
and dashing ‘‘Lieutenant’’ Walter Coupe.
The prima donna is no other than Alice
Clark and the sprightly and sightly Helen
Gould is playiog the role of ‘‘Kamorta.’”
That side-splitting sailor, the butt of all
jokes, the maker of complications and the
joy of the youngsters is Sack Coilina. The
“Isle of Spice’ was written by Kirk Alex-
ander, now a writer on she Detroit Journal,
and is being presented ander the B. C.
Whitney management.

~The Pennsylvania State College this
year bas a Freshman claw of upwards of
five hundred with a total attendance in the
neighborhood of twelve hundred, and so
far there has been less hazing and general
rowdyism than ever before. While the
fact is ocoosidered by some as a faltering
valor on the part of she students it should
not generally be =o regarded by any means,
but rather something to be gommended.
Hazing has always been an abomination in
the mind of every right thinking person
and the time has ccme when broadminded
students themselves should unite in con-
demning the practice. Aod because State
students did very liste of is this year is a
fact over which they can feel sonsiderable
justifiable pride.

Monday there will as usual be scores of
Centre countiaus ont on the mountains in
quest of the fleet-footed animals. Of orurse
all deer hunters are fully acquainted with
the law governing the Killing of the ani-
mals so that it is not necessary to dwell
thereon at this time. Ae a matter of rec-
ord and comparison, however, as well asa
matter of news to its readers and hanters
generally the WATCHMAN would like to
have as accurate a report as possible of the
number of deer killed in the county, and
by Centre countians anywhere ; and would
therefore ask al! those who are fortunate

margarine is sold for 25 cents a pound and

there are several families who have been

difference in the price is taken into ocon-

forty years, who until recently was house-
keeper for John P. Deliaas, at the Belle:

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—Allfred Osman,
aged abons forty years, made a rash as-
tempt $0 commis suicide at the Miss Annie
Bible bome near Centre Hall on Wednes-
day morning about six o'clock. He elash-
ed his throats with a razor, catting several
gashes, one of which was fire inches in
length. Fortunately the jugular vein was
not severed and he failed in the attempt so
far that he was still living yesterday
though it is not yet certain whether his
life can be saved or nos.
Osman is a bricklayer by occupation but
during the past few months he bas lived
with Miss Annie Bible, on the Bible farm
east of Centre Hall. At this writing it bas
not been possible to learn the cause of the
man's rash act, but it is assumed to be
despondenocy.
