Mr. BERRY is soliciting Democratic sup- port in Pennsylvania on the ground that he is an ardent admirer of THEODORE ROOSEVELT and a disciple of ROOSEVELT- ism. In fact he has had the temerity to allege that he is the tail of the RoOSE- VELT party. That may entitle him to some consideration but hardly to Demo- cratic support. ROOSEVELT’S policies are the antithesis of the JEFFERSONion polit- ical creed. His new nationalism is sim- ply an exaggeration of the doctrines pro- mulgated by ALEXANDER HAMILTON and the farthest possible away from Democ- racy. When Mr. BERRY was a candidate for State Treasurer he was admonished against his habit of fulsomely eulogizing ROOSEVELT and though he protested it was only for political effect, he material- ly modified his praise. But ROOSEVELT didn’t stand then for the heresies he is now proclaiming from the housetops. Probably Mr. BERRY has not discerned the difference. He is a man of slovenly mental habits and nice distinctions es- cape his notice. But the voters of Penn- sylvania are more alert, mentally. They know the difference between an ice wag- on and a hearse. The Democratic party has always stood for home rule and against the centraliza- tion of power. ROOSEVELT stands for centralization and against home rule. Democrats who support ROOSEVELT are abandoning the faith of their fathers and at a time when it is of the greatest im- portance that the doctrines of JEFFERSON be preserved. In Pennsylvania Mr. BERRY is the representative of ROOSEVELTism and Democrats should refrain from even encouraging his heresies. Do not be de- ceived by the sophistries of an enemy of Democracy though in disguise. An Honest Man Will Not do it. It amazes us to hear men denounce ex-Treasurer BERRY. He did his duty as State Treasurer, and in consequence a number of politicians now are in the penitentiary and others are on their way, Why, then, should this official be subject to abuse? BERRY exposed a lot of thieves who stole millions from the public treasury. Why, then, in the name of all that is just and fair, should any decent man assail such an official ? An honest man will not do it.~The Centre Demo- erat, Oct. 6, 1910. Why, then, should Mr. BERRY abuse Col. JAMES M. GUFFEY when Col. GuUF- FEY made it possible for Mr. BERRY to be. come State Treasurer. When Col. GUFFEY personally paid for the services of HOMER L. CASTLE, the lawyer who helped Mr. BERRY uncover the capitol scandal. When Col. GUFFEY personally gave Mr- BERRY fifteen thousand dollars in order to help him in his personal business ven- tures in Chester. When Col GUFFEY was in favor of either MUNSON's or BERRY'S nomination at Al- lentown. We ask these questions, not as setting up a defense for Col. GUFFEY, but merely “in the name of all that is just and fair,” we would like to know how an honest man, and Mr. BERRY is presumed to bean honest man—can do it. ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS. LINN.—Mrs. Mary Williams Linn, wife of G. Britton Linn, died at her home near Beech Creek last Friday morning. She had been an invalid a number of years as the result of asthma and heart trouble, but at that her death was quite sudden and unexpected. She is survived by her husband, three sons and two daughters, as follows: Kelsey, of Lock Haven; Roy, Fountain, Grace and Jennie, of Beech Creek. The funeral was held on Sunday, burial being made in the Clark ceme- tery. ——The football season opened at State College last Saturday afternoon when State’s opponents on the gridiron were the Harrisburg Tigers from the athletic club, of that place. They may have been Tigers but they were neither very nimble nor very fierce, as the final score was 58 to 0 in State’s favor. The White and Blue played all around the visitors and realizing their weakness early in the game took advantage of same to try out some two dozen or more players, with the result that coach John Hollenback was fairly well satisfied with the show- ing made. | Hess.—Another old soldier and well Bellefonte, Pa., October 7, 1910. | - | Deceased was a son of John and Julia . Hess, pioneer settlers of Harris township, known and highly esteemed citizen of Ferguson township has gone to his last reward in the person of John G. Hess, who died at his home in Pine Grove Mills on Monday evening. He had been in failing health the past year or longer but it was less than a month since his con- ‘and was born at Boalsburg December 26th, 1831, hence at his death was 78 years, 9 months and 7 days old. When a young man he learned the trade of a , carriage maker which occupation he fol- lowed most of his life. On December 27th, 1857, he was united in marriage to | Miss Sarah A. Rhone, a sister of Hon. ' Leonard Rhone. They went to house- ! keeping at Enosville and later at Mec- | Alevy’s Fort. In the spring of 1860 they moved to Pine Grove Mills where Mr. | Hess established himself in the carriage making business which he carried on for | many years, and there are to this day a | number of vehicles throughout the coun- | ty which were built by him, though they | are now somewhat out of date. When the war broke out in 1861 he en- listed as a private in Company G, Forty- sixth regiment, and served throughout the war. About thirteen years ago he was appointed postmaster at Pine Grove Mills and was twice re-appointed, serving about eleven yearsin all. Two years ago he was compelled to resign on account of ill health. He later went to Medina, Ohio, and spent a year at the home of his only daughter, Mrs. Charles Smith. He returned last May feeling somewhat im- proved but another decline set in about a month ago from which he could not re- cover. Mr. Hess was that type of man which makes for the highest standard of citizenship in any community. Pains- takingly honestand conscientious, always ready to extend a helping hand to those deserving of help, and living a life of true christian fortitude he had a host of friends throughout this and adjoining counties who deplore his death, even though it was delayed until the winter of his life. Since early manhood he had been a member of the Lutheran church and had been a deacon in the church as well as a trustee for a number of years. He was also a member of the G. A. R. Surviving him are his wife, one daughter, Mrs. Charles Smith, and two sisters, Mrs. W. H. Grow, of Carlisle, and Mrs. H. Y. Stitzer, of Bellefonte. Rev. J. S. Shultz officiated at the funeral which was held on Wednesday, burial being made in the new cemetery. - | RHOADS. — Mrs. Maria Dick Rhoads, widow of the late Judge Daniel Rhoads, died at her home on west Linn street at 1.48 o'clock yesterday afternoon. She had been in rather feeble health the past year or more and about a week ago suf- fered a collapse which resulted in a gen- eral and rapid decline until her death yesterday. Mrs. Rhoads came of an historic fam- ily, of revolutionary stock. Her father was Edward Smith, a native of Salem, N. J. He was liberally educated and by profession was a civil engineer. In early manhood he represented his locality in the New Jersey Legislature. He went west to Mt. Carmel, Ill, in 1833, and it was at that place the subject of this notice was born in 1839. She was given a good education and in 1861 was united in marriage to Daniel Rhoads and ever since the family have lived in Bellefonte. Mrs. Rhoads was always a modest, retir- ing woman but one who lived a good and consistent life. She was the mother of five children, two of whom are dead and those surviving as follows: Edward Keas- bey, of this place; Joseph James, of Al- toona, and Rebecca Naomi, at home. i Il PAGE.—Following an illness of many months with heart trouble and dropsy Tobias Page died on Sunday night at his home in Boalsburg. He was born in Ju- niata county on July 25th, 1825, hence was over eighty-five years of age. Fol- lowing the death of his wife some ten years ago he came to Boalsburg and has since made his home with his nephew, S. M. Bell. Two sisters living in the west are his only near surviving relatives. He was a member of the Menomite church. The funeral was held at ten o'clock on Tuesday morning. Rev. J. I.

They drove | into the grounds at the upper gate and | turned to the right to drive around back | of the exhibition building to the hitching grounds below. In the rear of the ex- hibition building is a deep pool of water with quite an embankment leading down to same. As the young ladies were driv- ing along that place the trainon the Cen- tral railroad came by. The horse fright- ened and started to run, the buggy going down over the embankment and dumping all three of the young ladies into the water, in which they were almost completely submerged. They were rescued from their involuntary bath, fortunately un- injured, and taken over to the home of Dr. Hayes where they were fixed up as well as possible to enjoy the day at the fair. -—An interesting case was tried be- fore justice of the peace Milford Pletcher at Blanchard last week, in which William Myers Sr., was the plaintiff and the su- pervisors of Liberty township the defend- ants. Myers had done some work on the road and had furnished a team, wagon and driver. For these he wanted the customary pay of three dollars a day, but the supervisors refused to allow him but $2.50. Myers brought suit to recover the first named price. The case had been continued several times, but finally was heard last week and the justice decided in favor of Mr. Myers. The entire amount involved was not over five dol- lars and in contesting Mr. Myers’ claim the supervisors of Liberty township have involved the taxpayers of that township in an expense of fifty dollars or more, in- cluding the verdict against them, costs, attorney’s fees, etc. Cyrus Durst, Adam Hosterman, James Poorman, John Hook, Alexander Kuhn | and Henry Frederick. i I STAMBACH.—Mrs. Annie Stambach died at her home at Aaronsburg last Thursday afternoon at the advanced age of eighty- four years. She was the widow of the late Rev. Elias Stambach, a former well known minister in this locality. She is survived by three sons and three daugh- ters, as follows: Albert E., of Lock Ha- ven; Jerome, of Somerset; Charles, of York; Mrs. Albert Cassler, of Somerset; Mrs. Charles Wolfe, of Rising Springs, and Mrs. Lizzie Swabb, at home. The funeral was held on Saturday afternoon, burial being made in the Aaronsburg cemetery. ' .

All efforts to locate the same prov- ed fruitless until Monday morning when he received word that the rig had been delivered at his lumber camp near Julian by a boy who said he had been given a quarter to deliver it. Inquiry finally dis- closed the fact that the horse and buggy had been taken by W. G. Bullock, of Julian. He came to Bellefonte on Sat- urday and after spending the night in town and drinking pretty freely, went to Musser’s stable on Sunday shortly after neon and took his horse and buggy and drove home. It is alleged by some that Mr. Bullock had a horse and buggy some- where in town and that he took Mr. Musser’s ingmistake for his own. This explanation is not a satisfactory one to Mr. Musser and he had a warrant sworn out for Bullock’s arrest. The lat- ter was finally captured at Howard on Wednesday by policeman Dukeman and afternoon.

Seibert; first assistant, Frank Doll; second assistant, Charles Anderson. This completed the business of the evening and bills to the amount of $1, 940.35 were approved and orders drawn. it was just ten minutes of eight o'clock when the president announced .adjourn- ment to be in order just as councilman Harry Keller made his appearance in the room. VETERAN RAILROADER RETIRED.—Wm, T. Young, the oldest and probably one of the best known freight conductors on the Bald Eagle Valley railroad, made his last run last Friday and was then placed on the honored retired list. Mr. Young was seventy years old on September 8th. He began his railroad career on October 28th, 1868, as a freight brake- man on the Tyrone division. In 1871 he was promoted to a conductor, in which capacity he has labored ever since, the last twenty-five years of which were spent on the Bald Eagle local between Tyrone and Lock Haven. When he completed his run on Friday he was given an in- formal reception at the yardmaster’s office in Tyrone and was warmly congratulated by his fellow employees on the honorable completion of so successful a railroad career.

F. Hower took charge of this congregation less than three years ago the debt amounted to $415.32. Since that time there was spent on improve- — Put IT IN PassaBLE CONDITION. —“A diamond in the rough,” is the way one lady characterized the Diamond when she ered. And the lady put it very mildly, indeed. Of course the Diamond and that portion of Allegheny street which is to be paved with brick will have to be grad- ed some time, but if it is correct as un- officially reported in council on Monday evening that the brick for the paving will not be here before the 25th of this month, almost three weeks yet, it seems almost like forcing a nuisance upon the town to dig the street up and allow it to lie as it has the past few days. If it was neces. sary to digit up now to facilitate the work on the entire contract then the con- tractor should be required to go ahead with the work to the extent of grading it and rolling so that it would be at least in a passable condition. Property owners on north Allegheny street, along the route of the new road, are bringing their pavements up to grade wherever necessary, filling in and sodding between the pavements and new curb and there is every indication that this work will be completed long before the road is finished; as it is still held up for the want of asphaltum. During the past day or two rumors have been circulated that the state high- way department would hold up the com- pletion of the new road until spring, on account of the lateness of the season. When asked as to the truth of the mat- ter contractor R. B. Taylor said there was nothing whatever in the story. That he was going right ahead with the road as fast as he could get the necessary ma- terial, and if there was any hold up at all it would be because cold weather and snow caught him before he could get the material to finish the work. —A few days ago G. R. Spigelmyer received a letter postmarked Florence, Colorado, and enclosing six one dollar bills. In a brief note he stated that many years ago he had taken advantage of Mr. Spigelmyer to the extent of three dollars and that he now wished to make restitu- tion hence sent him the amount with one hundred per cent interest. The note was merely signed “E.” and Mr. Spigelmyer has no idea who the writeris. Of course as long as the fellows conscience has been eased and Mr. Spigelmyer is six dollars better off he is not worrying very much who the man may be. —On Friday of last week Emanuel Shook, of Gregg township, was up on a ladder picking apples from a tree when one of the rungs broke. Mr. Shook was thrown to theground and a bag of apples fell upon him. His back was so badly injured that he has been unable to even move himself since and it is feared that the consequences may prove fatal. PINE GROVE MENTION. The fair was quite well a'tended from this sec- ments and repairs $586.60, a total of $1,- | tion. 001.92. In the beginning of this confer- ence year, March 1st, the debt had been reduced to $300. When the results of last Sunday were made known by the of- ficials it was learned that the cash re- ceipts amounted to $329.20. Of this amount only $16.72 was raised by festi- vals and no appeal was made for outside help. It was a rally day which the local United Evangelicals will not soon forget. The note will be burned at the service next Sunday morning. REPAIRS TO HIGH STREET BRIDGE.—This week the street commissioners nailed some short plank on High street bridge to make it secure for traveling and there was considerable comment on the crude- ness of the job. But such repairs are only temporary and naturally were made as cheaply as possible. The contract has been let to repair the bridge in a permanent. way. The middle truss will be removed, the superstructure strengthened and a floor of concrete and brick put down. This will put the bridge in such shape that it will not need a new floor four years or less and will bean improve- ment that will be a money saving in the end. The contract was awarded to the York Bridge company and the price is not to exceed $4,500, three thousand dol- lars of which will be paid by the county and the balance by the borough. ——One year ago when Centre county farmers were offered from fifty to seven- ty-five cents a bushel for their potatoes many of them declined to sell but held them for a dollar a bushel. The result was western potatoes were shipped in and the price instead of advancing de- clined and this spring potatoes were a drug on the market at thirty-five and even twenty-five cents a bushel, and those farmers who held their tubers were | in® compelled to feed the most of them to their stock. This fall all indications are for a large crop and that the price will not go above fifty or sixty cents, and farmers are letting go of them as rapidly as possible at the above figures.
