The open- ing session was held in St. John's Epis- copal church on Tuesday evening. It began with the usual prayer service which was concucted by the pastor, Rev. John Hewitt. At the close of this service Bishop James Henry Darlington, of Harrisburg, deiivered his annual address. He started out by speaking of the great loss the church throughout the country had sus- tained in the past year in the death of five bishops and the serious illness of one other who was thus incapacitated from labor. One minister and twenty-seven church members in the Harrisburg diocese died during the year. He spoke of the great advance that had been made in missionary work and cited as illustrations St. James church, of Lancaster, and 1st Trinity, of Williamsport. The former's assessment for the year was $300, and they gave $1,700 while the latter gave $1,491 when its assessment was only $291. The contributions of both churches for other purposes were also largely in- creased. The Bishop also stated that he was gratified to note that the proposition made a year ago that churches increase their pastor's salaries ten per cent. to meet the increased cost of living had been generally complied with. He also stated that fifty-six out of a total of ninety-two churches in the diocese had contributed $1,143 towards the clergyman’s general relief fund. The Boy Scout movement also was favorably commented upon. At the conclusion of the bishop's ad- dress the congregation was dismissed and the convention formally called to or- der for the transaction of business. The roll call showed forty-three ministers and forty-eight lay delegates present. Gen. Charles M. Clement, of Sunbury, was re- elected secretary of the convention and he appointed Mr. Davis his assistant. All the old standing committees were ap- pointed by Bishop Darlington, and the few vacancies caused by death or remov- al were supplied by new members. Prior to the assembling of the conven- tion a rumor gained currency that there was likely to be a contest over the elec- tion of a chancellor to succeed C. LaRue Munson, of Williamsport, but nothing of the kind occurred. In fact the election of officers was a veritable love feast, as all the old officials were re-elected with- out opposition. A lengthy communication was received from the general convention of the church asking that the diocesan conven- tion sanction an amendment to the con- stitution providing for the election of bishops by the general convention instead of by the board of bishops, and the same was given. The convention also went on record as approving the work now being carried on by the board of education of the church and a committee on Sabbath school work was appointed. A resolu- tion was passed condemning the sale of adulterated food stuffs, the white slave traffic and everything pertaining to the spread of disease or immorality. Various resolutions of interest to the church were presented at Tuesday night's session which were acted upon at the business session held on Wednesday morning. On Wednesday afternoon the conven- tion went to State College to be present at the service of breaking ground for the new St. Andrew’s mission. Bishop Dar- lington officiated and he was to have been assisted by Bishop Israel, of Erie, but that gentleman was taken sick on the train and was compelled to return home. At the conclusion of the breaking ground services the convention became the guests of the College and to show them the magnitude of the institution President Sparks had the regiment of cadets out on an exhibition drill. After- wards the visitors were taken to the dairy building where they were served a light luncheon of sandwiches with all the milk they could drink, and some of them had a very fair capacity, too. On Wednesday even the Church club held its regular annual banquet at the Brockerhoff house. Frank C. Angle, of Christ Memorial church, Danville, is sec- retary and treasurer of the club, and he had full charge of the affair; and in that capacity he certainly knows his business. Just eighty covers were laid and every one taken, the guests including not only members of the club, visiting ministers, etc, but a number of citizens of the town. The menu was elaborate and the banquet was thoroughly enjoyed by all Williamsport High school team by the | Present. score of 12 to 2. The Academy boys far outplayed their opponents at all stages of the game. ——At the annual meeting of the Belle- When the material man had been am- ply satisfied Col. W. Fred Reynolds was chosen ruler of the feast and Rev. John Hewitt made the address of welcome to the club. Dr. Edwin Earle Sparks spoke on “The Church as an Educational Force,” and Hon. Ellis L. Orvie on “Organization of the Laity for Work.” Bishop Darling- ton made the concluding remarks. The outgoing president,George N. Rey- nolds, of Lancaster, presided over the final business meeting of the club and the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Harry S. Knight, of Sunbury; vice presidents, C. A. Pres. ton, of Altoona, and Frank K. Lukenbach, of Tyrone, from the archdeaconry of Al- toona; John C. Schmidt, of York, and John W. B. Bausman, of Lancaster, for the , of Harrisburg, and archdeaconry, Hugh B. Meredith, M.

So far most every county in the State has had at least one representative there while Centre county has not been represented at all, and yet there isn’t a county in the State that has always been more prompt and willing to respond in time of actual need than Cen- tre county. ——Notwithstanding the long spell of cold weather this spring there have been more than the usual number of forest fires in Centre county. Two weeks ago fire did considerable damage on the mountain in Walker township and in the Barrens in Patton township, adjacent to the McNitt—Huyett Lumber company’s operations. On Sunday fire broke out on the point of Muncy mountain northwest of Bellefonte and burned over consider- able ground during that day and on Mon- day. How the fires started is a mystery. ee ——Ten car loads of pig iron are now being shipped daily from the two furnaces in this place, five from the Nittany and five from the Bellefonte. This means a shipment of probably two hundred and fifty tons daily, or an amount almost equal to the output of the two plants. But at that the company still has thous- ands and thousands of tons stored in the two yards and even at the present rate of shipment it will be months before the stock is disposed of. And naturally until this is done, or the price of iron advances considerably no proposition will be made for putting the furnaces in blast. But the fact that the company is disposing of their iron at the rate they now are is at least a sign that there is a fair demand for pig iron. ——The Bellefone Academy baseball team will have a big week of it begin- ning tomorrow if all their plans now car- ry through. The Lock Haven Normal will be their opponents on Hughes field tomorrow afternoon, game to be called at 3.15 o'clock. Forsythe will likely be in the box for the visitors and efforts are being made to secure Tom Donovan to umpire the game. Gettysburg will play State College next Friday and the Acad- emy management is trying to secure them for a game on Thursday afternoon. On Friday afternoon the University of Pittsburg will play the Academy on Hughes field and on Saturday morning the Bucknell Academy nine will be here, so that baseball enthusiasts will have op- portunity of witnessing some good games. ——William B. Given, of Chicago, ac- companied by a number of experts, was in Bellefonte last Friday and Saturday look- ing over the property of the American Union Telegraph and Telephone com- pany. Mr. Given has under consideration the formation of a company to take over all the property of the above company and place it under a new management and it was in securing an estimate of the value of the same that he and his men came to this county. Mr. Given went east to Philadelphia and New York in the beginning of the week while his crew of estimaters are still within the county. Should the American Union pass into the hands of a new company it will hardly make any change in its operation here or elsewhere, unless it be to add to its effi- ciency. The American Union Co. is now in the hands of receivers. It is the com- bination of independent companies out- side of Bell control and the old Commer- cial telephone company that developed this county is one of the subsidiary com- o'clock when he got on the ground. He found the man lying just where he had dropped and the foreigners in an uproar. The sheriff and a number of deputies went to the scene of the murder but though they searched the entire valley and mountain could not find the murder- er. They even went to Tyrone, Scotia and over to Snow Shoe Intersection to watch the various trains but did not find him. Undertaker Frank E. Nagingy brought the remains of the murdered man to Bellefonte and coroner S. M. Huff held an inquest on Monday morning. After hearing the evidence the jury, composed of J. Linn Harris Sidney Krumrine, Aaron Katz, Russell Blair, Harry Baum and C. L. Gates, returned a verdict in effect that Giangioppi came to his death by a razorcuton the left side of the neck, which severed the jugular vein, at the hands of Carman Ventro, one of his countrymen. - Both Giangioppi and Ventro are mar- ried and have a wife and one child each in the old country. The mur- dered man was probably forty-two years of age while Ventro is thirty-five. The latter is a man about five feet ten inches tall, with a dark mustache and rather dan- dified appearance. He wore a green suit of clothes. mr STATE RoADp TO BE COMPLETED AT Once.—Contractor R. B. Taylor began work on the completion of the state road through Bellefonte on Wednesday and it will be a relief to the people of the town to learn that the same is to be pushed to completion as fast as possible. The as. phalt for the top coveringarrived in Belle- fonte on Saturday and as it is of a proof passed upon by the State Highway Com- mission there will be no delay so far as that is concerned. If the contractor puts force enough at work upon the road he should have it completed within a month or six weeks at the most. The First National bank is the first of the property owners along the brick paved portion of Allegheny street and the Diamond to begin the repair of their pavement this spring. They had the old stone pavement torn up on Monday and a new and substantial concrete walk has been practically completed. It is now up to all the other property owners on that section of the street to do likewise and have the pavements conform to the paved street. GOO sana. Court House DEDICATION FRIDAY, May 19TH. —Centre county's remodeled court house is to be officially dedicated on Friday of next week, May 19th. A committee was appointed by the bar as- sociation to prepare a program for the day and make the event one worthy the present building, on the remodeling of which close to $125,000 was spent, but the uncertainty of who will be here, out of the large number invited, makes it rath. er difficult to announce any definite speak- ers; especially people away from home. The dedication will take place at 10.30 o'clock in the morning and addresses will be made by Gen. James A. Beaver, Judge Ellis L. Orvis and distinguished members of the bar from various sections of the State. Not only judges and lawyers are invited but every citizen of Centre coun- ty as well, as the court house is the one public building in which every resident of the county has an interest. In the after- noon of that day there will be a ball game between the Bellefonte Academy panies of the American Union. and University of Pittsburg teams. —Mias Clayton, of Philadelphia, is in Bellefonte visiting her sister, Mrs. J.
