BeLLeroNTE HUNTERS RETURN. —The
Paother hunting club, after two weeks in
the Alleghenies in quest of deer, returned
last Saturday evening empty banded and
it is almost needless to say that every man
of them was glad to get back to civiliza-
tion once again. Of course they bad wvari-
ous stories to tell about their luck and all
proclaimed it a case of the hardest kind of
lack that they were not able to bring home
some venison. All told they saw Eve deer
aod had some six or eight shots. The big
back shot by John Kuisely and Al Shaw-
ley on the second day of the season, was no
doubt mortally wounded, as it lefta trail
of blood on each side bus as is was raining
bard the trail was soon washed sway and
could not be followed.
Another day when the men were mak-
ing a drive a buck with spikes on 1t fally
four inches long walked out to within thir-
ty yards of Misch Cunningham and stopped
and looked at him. Mitch was so excited
he couldn't see the horns and as game war-
dens were quite plentital around there he
didn’s want to risk shooting a doe. All
the same the buok muss bave felt satisfied
it was in po danger for after standiog
quietly a minute or two it turned and
loped away like an old sheep. When it
started Cunningham saw its horns and
shot but the deer went on. Henry Kline
wae the next man on watoh and when he
heard the report of Convingham’s gun he
became alarmed lest the game wardens
were trying to kidvap him and be started
on a ran to see what was she matter, and
it was lucky he did, elee the deer might
bave run over him ae it passed almost over
the spot where he had been standing. It
then ran within thirty yards or so of Har-
ry Gerberioh, who also got a shot at it but
failed to bring it down,
Lion MoGinley gos one shot bat as it was
a long and difficals one he also failed to
bring his deer to earth. None of the party
attempted to bunt small game, else they
might bave broughs home at least a few
birds, as a Renovo party encamped nos far
from the Panther headquarters bad some-
thing like seventy fire pheasants to their
oredis.
The season ended on Tuesday and is can
truthfally be said thas it has been the poor
eat season in years,as considerably less than
half the number of deer were killed in Cen-
tre county this year than were last year, and
then the number was below the average.
There were more bear killed shis year, how-
ever, than in former years. Pheasants,
also, were quite plentifal bat the season
for them also closed on Taesday and the
only kind of game it is now lawlal to shoot
are rabbits until December 15th and bear
until Jannary first.
Probably the most sacoessful party of
hunters in Centre connty were the Owl
hauting club, of Cartin. They came in
on Tuesday with four nice deer, shot by
William Dokeman, Ode Kelley, Bert Bath-
urst and George Brian.
The only deer brought to Bellefonte this
season was a smali buck received by bar.
ges John J. Bower on Tuesday evening,
and while it wasn't big enough to pass
around very liberally, at least he and a few
of his friends will have the pleasure of a
venison dinner this year.
FINAL ConTrRACTS ¥OR Court House
AWARDED. —~ The fival contracts for the
completion of the remodeling of the old and
for the new pars of the coart honse were
last week awarded to Gehret & Lambert
fer $11,900. They included the marble floor
in she corridor of the old and new buildings;
marble wainscoting in corridors and on the
stairways in the old and new buildings; the
front and rear stairways of iron and marble
with iron railings and the entrance to the
court room proper. At the top of the front
stairways there will be a lobby separated
from the main court room by a plate glass
parti ion with large glass dcors. The lobby
will have a marble floor and wainscoting
and these as well as the plate glass parti-
tion and glass doors are included in the
above bid.
On Monday the carpenters began work
on the one section of the roof of the new
building. The walls were entirely oom-
pleted on Wednesday and the whole thing
will be gotten under roof as soon as possi-
ble. The new ceiling in the old court house
is almost completed and everything is mov.
ing along at a fair rate of speed. That the
cours house when fully completed will be
one worthy of any county in the State is
the verdiot of those who have seen what is
being done and studied the plans closely ;
and one good thing about it is that the
work has all been given to and done, so far
as possible, by local contractors.

HAND BapLY BURNED.—A few days
azo Robert F. Hanter drove his E-M-F
oar into Will Keiohline’s garage to go over
the transmission, as is was not working
just right. For some purpose or other he
bad a pan of gasoline standing under the
rear end of the machine and while at work
he wanted to make a close inspection of a
part of the maohinery and without think.
ing struck & mateh., The pan of gasoline
at once ignited and in order to save his
machine Mr. Hunter grabbed it with his
bare hand and jerked it from under the
automobile. In doing so his feet slipped
on the oily concrete floor and he fell into
the pan of burning gasoline with the result
that his olothing caught fire. He bad on
a coat belonging to Lewis Hill and, it be-
ing tight and his right hand badly burned,
he could not divest himself of the burning
garments bus Hill, seeing his predicament,
tore off the burning coat and thus saved
him from any further injary than a burned
hand, but it is bad enough to make him
i
realize that ¢ burning matoh is about as
dangerous around gasoline as it is around
powder.

cables about town. It is their intention

will obviate practically all danger of dam.

SunpaY MORNING FiRE—Bellefonters
were aroused from their late Sunday morn.
ing slambers by an alarm of fire, which
proved to be in the south front room of the
Mrs. Hibler home on Allegheny street. It
was shortly before eight o'clock when sev-
eral persons going to early mass at the
Catholio church, observed smoke issning
from beneath the shutters of the windows.
A closer examination showed the room to
be oo fire. That side of the Hibler house
is oocupied by Mrs. Gepbart and is was
only after repeated calls and kuocking on
she door that she was awakened. In the
meantime Harry Taylor ran to the pablio
buildiog and tarned in an alarm. The
companies responded quickly aud through
their prompt efforts the fire was confined
to the ove room aud was extiuguished
without doing a very greats amount of dam-
age. Is is not known defivitely how the
fire originated, bus it is the supposition
that it was either from the furuace in the
basement or a smouldering fire in the
grate.

of Mr. and Mrs. Syduey Kruomrine, was in
his father’s drugstore and undertook to
drive a nail in one of the shelves. Instead
of hitting the nail he hit a bottle contain
iog nitric acid. The bottle broke and the
acid flew over bis face and bands. With
rare presence of mind he closed his eyes
and saved them from the burning fluid.
Alcohol, which is a peusralizer for pitrie
acid, was applied as soon as possible but at
that his hands and face were badly burned.
