It appears that on November 17th Jacob Bartlet, the drayman, hauled some goods from the Pennsylvania freight station for Lyon & Co. and delivered same at their ‘store. The next day he signed for the receipt of the same at the freight station, receipting for five cases. The bills were ! taken to Lyon & Co., and paid by them. "Over a month later, or on or about De- . cember 20th, in checking up their freight ! bills, Lyon & Co. made the discovery that | they had paid freight on a case of goods | never received. Inquiry was made of Mr, | Bartlet and he admitted that he had sign- ed for five cases of goods for Lyon & Co., , had received them at the freight depot land asserted that he had delivered the | same on the pavement in front of Lyon's’ store. All inquiry failed to find any trace of the missing case and finally, several weeks ago, Lyon” & Co. brought suit against Mr. Bartlet to. recover the value | of the goods. . A hearing was held before justice of the peace W. H. Musser and upon the advice of his attorney Mr. Bartlet made no defense but took out an appeal to be heard in court. Now comes the peculiar part of the affair. Last Friday a certain merchant notified the officials of the rail- road company that he had found the miss- ing case of goods in his wareroom and could account for it being there only by the fact that his driver evidently got the box in mistake, hauled it from the sta- tion to his place of businéss and stored it in the wareroom, where it remained un- touched until discovered by himself weeks afterwards. The only thing to be done was to return the box to the freight sta- tion and the railroad company on Mon- day delivered the box to Lyon & Co. re A on meee Took POISON BY MISTAKE.—On Tues- day morning J.

He had a slight attack of indigestion and as a relief took four tablets from a soda mint bottle. They did not taste exactly like soda mints and he remarked to his wife on the peculiar flavor. An investi- gation revealed the fact that in some way a quantity of bi-chloride of mercury tablets had been placed in the soda mint bottle and that he had taken several of those. Terror stricken at what her husband had done by mistake Mrs. Robb ran across the street to Spigelmyers and told the story, at the same time telephoning for a doctor. In the meantime Mrs. Hall gave Mr. Robb all the milk he could drink as an emetic and this retarded the action of the poison until a physician ar- rived and relieved him through the use of a stomach pump. As it was, he became quite sick and it was not until late in the day that he was considered out of danger, but he is now all right again, and in the future will doubtless be very certain of the nature of any indigestion tablets he takes. nie ile BELLEFONTE ACADEMY ATHLETES BAN- QUET.— Last Friday evening James R. Hughes, principal of the Bellefonte Acad- emy, gave the members of the football team and other athletes their usual an- nual banquet at the Brockerhoff house and with the specially invited guests just fifty people gathered around the festive board. Christy Smith's orchestra was present and furnished the music and this naturally aided very much in the diges- tion of the lengthy and up-to-date menu discussed. When the inner man had been amply satisfied James R. Hughes presided as toastmaster and in a somewhat extended talk told of the work of the football as well as other athletic teams of the Acad- emy during the past year and not only congratulated the students on their rather remarkable success but bespoke for them better support in the future from the public at large. Others who responded to toasts were Capt. H. S. Taylor, Dr. M. J. Locke, Rev. James P. Hughes, George T. Bush, Dr. R. G. H. Hayes and others. It was three o'clock in the morning when the flow of wit and wisdom finally ceased and everybody departed for their homes. | A BEAUTIFTL MEMORIAL. —The chancel of St. John's Episcopal church, Bellefonte, has been enriched and beautified by the erection of a reredos in memory of the Reverend George Godfrey Field, who was rector of St. John's church from 1857 to 1862. The reredos is the gift of Mr. Field's widow, Mrs. Lucy H. Field, of Coatesville, Pa., a daughter of the late Judge James T. Hale, who was at one time judge of the Centre county courts and at another time a Representative in Congress. The reredos stands back of the altar against the wall, at the base of the large chancel window which is a memorial to Judge Hale. It is made of quartered oak and is hand-carved in gothic design to corres- pond with the rest of the chancel furni- ture and with the general architecture of the church. A small brass plate in a following inscription: “The path of the just is ‘the shining light that shineth more and more unto ——Ray Showers, ason of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Showers, of Nittany, who is a stu- dent at the Williamson school at Media, was struck by a train at Elwyn station, Chester county, last Thursday evening. He was thrown to one side of the track and when taken to a Philadelphia hos- pital it was found that his left leg was broken, he had sustained a bad scalp wound and various cuts and bruises. Though his condition is serious it is be- lieved he will recove:. prophet is not without honor save in his own country,” and while this may hold good in Bellefonte so far as prophets are concerned it will have to be revised in reference to moving picture shows, as everybody in Bellefonte agrees perfectly on the fact that the best moving picture show in the State is the Scenic, in Belle- fonte. It is not only good one evening, butevery evening and the best all the time. Strangers admit this and nobody denies it. And all for five cents, at that. ——There is great cause to be thank- ful for the fact that eggs took a tumble last week and were purchased in Belle- fonte on Saturday as low as twenty-five cents a dozen. Butter is down a few cents a pound while the wholesale price of meats is appreciably lower with the probability that the retail price will also come down before long. Wheat is down to ninety cents a bushel and hay has fallen considerable in price. Perhaps before long a man may be able to get a square meal without pawning his very existence. ——Antrim & Landsy, of Philadelphia, recently completed a pastel painting of the late Hon. Harry R. Curtin, of Curtin, which is a very remarkable like- ness of that well known gentleman; especially considering the fact that the portrait was made from a group picture in which Mr. Curtin appeared. The por- trait which is almost life-like in appear- ance, represents Mr. Curtin in the later years of his life and reflects considerable credit on the painters, Antrim & Landsy, who have done considerable work for various parties in Bellefonte and always gave complete satisfaction. ——On Sunday evening Rev. Dr. Overs, of Wellsboro, preached a very interesting sermon in St. John's Episcopal church. Dr. Overs, by the way, was ordained a minister in the Methodist Episcopal church and went as a missionary to Africa. It was his fortune to be sent among a tribe of two hundred thousand natives who had never seen a white man and so impressed were they by their young missionary that they made him their tribal chief and gave him a large tract of land within their domain. Not considering it of any special value, locat- ed as it was in Africa and away from all means of transportation, Dr. Overs gave the property to the American Book Con- cern. The land is covered with forests of virgin mahogany and other valuable timber, and a start has been made to de- velop its lumbering industries, which ex- perts estimate to be worth upward of two million dollars. Dr. Overs returned from Africa some three years ago and on account of his health was not permitted to return. It was since his return that he left the Methodist church and became the perfect day.’ a rector in the Episcopal church. —There is an old saw “that al Houser managed to raise the machine enough to release the two men. Gentzel sustained one or two fractured ribs and had the ligements of his left arm torn loose at the shoulder. He was brought to this place and taken to his home on Water street and at the time it was fear- ed that he was badly injured internally but fortunately this did not prove to be the case and after being housed up two days he was able to be out and around, | though his left arm and shoulder are | still quite limp. Bartley and Houser sustained a few cuts and bruises but nothing of a very serious character, and inasmuch as the machine was overturned and badly fortunate in escaping with so few injuries: This was the first accident of the kind to happen in this section this winter and will doubtless be a warning to other drivers to go carefully on the icy roads. Ee SwWINDLER Works Bogus CHECK ScHEME.—Last Friday evening a stranger about six foot in height and with some- what the appearance of a woodsman, walked into Baum's clothing store and bought a bill of goods amounting to $2.61. He presented in payment therefore a check for twelve dollars drawn on the First National bank and signed by G. H. Yarnell, at the time stating that the check was that of George H. Yarnell, of Walker township, Republican candidate for sheriff. Mr. Baum cashed the check and gave the man $9.29 change. ‘Lhe stranger left his purchase at the store saying that he had some other busi- ness to transact and would return for the goods before the store closed at six o'clock. From Baums he went to Ole- wine's hardware store and made pur- chases to the amount of $3.50. There he also presented another twelve dollar check similar to the one cashed at Baum's and it was also cashed by the people at Ole- wines, the stranger pocketing $8.50 in change. Like at Baum’s he also left his purchase there to be called for later, but so far has failed to call. And when both parties presented their check for pay- ment on Saturday morning they were at once informed that they were not good, rather poor forgeries, in fact. In the meantime the stranger had disappeared, very likely gone to some other town to work the game. Team KILLED ON RAILROAD.—On Mon- day morning a team of horses belonging to Philip Resides and driven by him, was instantly killed on the railroad cross ing at Hastings. Mr. Resides was driv- ing down the road close to the Hastings residence and the house and other build ings shut off the view up the valley and of course he could not see the train com- ing and was not aware of its approach until he had driven his team onto the rail- road right in front of the on-rushing train. Both horses were struck fairly, torn loose from the wagon and thrown to one side, being killed instantly. Fortu- nately Mr. Resides was not thrown from the wagon or injured in any way and the train was not thrown from the track, though the passengers received a severe jolt from the sudden impact of the loco- ———The ladies of the Maccabees will hold a euchre in the Maccabees’ hall in the McClain block on Thursday evening, February 9th, to which the public is cor- wrecked the three of them were very | —Miss Grace Beck, a professional nurse now located in Williamsport, spen' Sunday with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John H.
