Of course they are always referred to the Scenic as the one place they can always be well entertained and they go asa matter of course to help put in the time.

It's the same way with residents of the town as well as strangers, they all attend. “eee ~—0On Thursday of last week Governor Tener signed the Alter bill for the re- moval of the western penitentiary toa lo- cation in the central or western part of the State where it can be made more of an outdoor institution than it is at pres- ent. Fifteen hundred acres of land are desired, adjacent to one of the State's forest reserves, if possible. A million and a quarter dollars are to be expended in purchasing the land and the erection of suitable buildings. -ee ~—The middie of April is practically here and so far there has been so little spring-like weather that the buds on the trees have hardly started. Last Saturday evening and night we had a regular bliz- zard so far as the fall of snow was con- cerned, though fortunately it was not cold. It began snowing shortly after seven o'clock and continued until almost midnight, resulting in a fall of from two to three inches. A good part of it melted during the night and practically all of it by Sunday noon, but it was evidence of the vagary of the weather this season. Saturday night's snow, by the way, was the deepest April snow we have had since April 5th, 1898, when there was a fall of five inches; but the record breaker April snow was on April 10th and 11th, 1894, when there was a total fall of eighteen inches, blocking railroad traffic for twenty- four hours. ——H. T. Wetzel and Arthur Long, of Howard, and Misses Gertrude and Estella Uhl, of Lock Haven, narrowly escaped being killed in an automobile accident at Avis last Saturday evening. The party had been to Jersey Shore in Mr. Wetzel's car and left there shortly before eight o'clock on the return trip home. They approached the New York Central rail- | road crossing at Avis with their car under complete contro! but on account of the hill and blinding snow storm failed to see an approaching freight train which struck the rear of their car before they cleared the track. Fortunately the train was moving slowly and the machine was simply upset, throwing all the occupants out. Miss Gertrude Uhl was caught be. tween the overturned machine and train and her escape from death was miraculous, as she sustained only a few bruises. None of the party sustained injuries of a serious nature, though their auto was broken so that they could not use it to make the urney home. morning Andrew G. Walker died at his | home at Yarnell, of pneumonia. He had | been in feeble health for months but was stricken with pneumonia only two days before his death. ! Deceased was about eighty years of |age and was born and raised in the | neighborhood of Runville, his parents be- ling George and Catharine Walker. In | 1852 he was united in marriage to Cath- ‘arine Walker, who died thirteen years | ago. Surviving him are the following | children: Mrs. Joseph McCloskey, of Flemington; Mrs. Sarah Owens and Mrs. Elizabeth Fetzer, of Clearfield; Mrs. James Poorman, of Snow Shoe; George | and Winfield, of Yarnell.
