The game was the best seen on Hughes field this season and as evidence of the strength of the visitors is the fact that on Saturday State College won from them by the nar- row margin of one run, the score being 4 to 3. While the Academy did not win; every game they did the most of them; making an enviable record. soe —Street commissioner Thomas Shaughensy and a force of men on Sat- urday and Monday removed the barricade from High street at the bridge by piling all the old lumber and new structual steel framework onto the torn up half of the bridge. This is a decided advantage to all traffic coming in or going out south Water street, especially any diverted over the bridge, and will undoubtedly be ap- preciated by drivers of all kinds of vehi- cles, The piling of the material on the bridge, however, has naturally added to the strain thereon without providing any extra support and the only question is whether it has overloaded the old struct- ure to an extent where it will weaken it enough to render it unsafe. > | | HARMAN.—On Friday of last week word was received in this place of the death at Portsmouth, Ohio, of Goorge H. Harman, a former resident of Bellefonte. Deceas- ed was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Harman and was born at Pleasant Gap in 1860, at the time of his death being 51 years, 3 months and 6 days old.

Harman, of Hazelton; William R., of Mifflin coun- ty; Mrs. Elizabeth Leonard, of Hazelton; Mrs. Minerva Fritts and Mrs. Hallie Elli son, of Portsmouth.

S. Glenn with Dr. Charles M. Boswell, assistant secretary of the Board of Home Missions and Church Ex- tension society, with headquarters in toona, superintendent of the Altoona dis- trict Central Pennsylvania M. E. confer- ence, relative to raising money for the completion of the new church. Plans were formulated which it is hoped will secure the co-operation of the thousands of influential Methodist laymen through- out the State in the effort to complete the new church, a picture of which is printed above. Ground was broken for this edifice on June 29th, 1910, the corner stone was laid on September 18th and the finished base- ment was occupied on January 22nd, 1911. Since that time work has been suspended for lack of funds and the interior of the church is still unfinished. The Board of Home Missions and individual Methodist lay members have already made substan- tial contributions to the building fund but in order to complete the church there must yet be raised outside of State Col- lege at least fourteen thousand dollars. The members of the church at State Col- e ge have already pledged eleven thous- and dollars, but will not be able to give much more than this amount. Those who are familiar with the situa- tion in State College know that this is not a local enterprise. Every county of the State is more or less interested in it. A study has been made of the college regis- tration records for the past twenty years with a view of discovering what per cent- age of Methodist students attend the in- gtitution. The almost unvarying per centage has been twenty each year. The enrollment at the college during the cur- rent year has been eighteen hundred stu- dents, so that there have been in attend- ance more than three hundred and fifty Methodists this year. A numberof these Philadelphia, and Dr. B. C. Conner, of Al-' St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church of State College. are already allied with the Sunday school of St. Paul's, and many more would be- way if the church had the accommoua. tions. | No intelligent. person will dispute | the good influence which the church may exert upon students during their college ‘course. No religious organization can take the place of the church, and stu. with the church life suffer a distinct loss to be a fatal loss. The leaders of the Methodist Episcopal church without blare of trumpets have been studying the problem of the relation ing it. At the University of ‘Wisconsin, for example, a pastor gives his entire time to the eight hundred Methodist stu" the only college town in the State of Pennsylvania in which there is not now a well appointed Methodist Episcopal church and it is the expectation of the men who are directing this enterprise that when Methodist laymen understand | the fourteen thousand dollars needed to | finish and furnish the building which now stands across from the campus, a credit to the christian church, and especially to that branch of it known as Methodist Episcopalian, which church was born ina University. On Wednesday Carl Steward, of the | firm of C. Day Rudy & Co., Harrisburg, | was in State College closing the contract | with the building committee for the win- dows to be put in the new church. The | three large windows, which will be me- morial, will be of art glass. They will | represent “Gethsemane,” “Babboni” and | “Ascension.” A number of the smaller! windows will also be memorial while oth- ers will be installed by Sunday school | classes and o izations of the church. | A full description of this handsome edi- fice will be given at a later date, when it has been completed and ready for dedica- tion as a house of worship. SPITLER.—On Wednesday of last week Mrs. Electa Spitler,wife of John L. Spitler, died at her home in South Philipsburg. She had been in poor health the past two or three years, herdeath being the re- sult of a complication of diseases. She was a daughter of George and Mary Vaughn and was born at Sandy Ridge fifty-eight years ago. She was married three times. Her first husband was Sanford Lumadue who died without issue. Her second hus” had three children, all living, namely: Harry, of South Philipsburg; William of Blairsville, and Mrs. Lloyd Stover of Dan- ville. Her third husband, Mr. Spitler, also survives. The funeral was held Fri- day afternoon, burial being made in the Philipsburg cemetery. COMMENCEMENT WEEK SCHEDULE ON BELLEFONTE CENTRAL R. R.—The sched- ule in force on the Bellefonte Central railroad, on account of the State College commencement, will be as follows: Friday, June 9th, Saturday, June 10th, and Monday, June 12th, 1911, trains will leave Bellefonte for State College at 6:30 and 10:15 a. m., 2:00 and 4:50 p. m.

WHAT THE STATE COLLEGE CATALOGUE SHows.—The annual cataiogue of The Pennsylvania State College just issued shows a total attendance of 1,808 stu- dents, being an increase of 400 over the preceding year. The number has more than doubled in five years. Philadelphia county leads with 142 and Allegheny is second with 137. Centre with 108 and Dauphin with 75 follow in decreasing order. It is peculiarly a Peansylvania institution,only 148 students coming from other States and countries. The School of Engineering leads with the School of Agriculture a close second. There are forty women students in the Department of Home Economics. The faculty now numbers 169. band was Nelson Stellar, by whom she re ay BELLEFONTE MOTORISTS APPROPRIATE MONEY TO IMPROVE COLLEGE ROAD.—The Bellefonte Motor club held a meeting in N. B. Spangler’s office on Monday even- ing at which ten or a dozen members were present. The principal object of the meeting was to take some action rel- ative to appropriating a certain sum of money toward the fund for improving the road between Bellefonte and State College. It was finally decided to appro- priate fifty dollars from the club treas- ury to the fund in question. In addi- tion to this amount a number of mem- bers contributed various amounts so that the total contributed by the club and members will exceed one hundred dollars. The entire fund raised in Bellefonte so far is over four times the above amount, and if State College, where the move- ment for the repairing of the road start- ed, does anyways near as well consider- able improvement can be made on the road. On Tuesday Robert F. Hunter and M. I. Gardner took a trip over that portion of the road running through Benner township and they state that the super- visors and farmers are doing good work. The road has been scraped and all the breakers taken out while the sides have been cut off to allow of proper drainage. Stone have already been placed on a long stretch of the road and the people are going ahead with the work. While itis only natural that it will take some time to thoroughly break the road and smooth it up, when that is done the people of that section will have a road of some stability and excellence. While Benner township residents are going ahead with their portion of the road the supervisors and farmers of Col- leg township are not doing anything on theirs. Between Lemont and State Col- lege a small amount of work was done but that is all. If the supervisiors of that township refuse to ioin in the movement to put this road in better condition the farmers ought to go to work independ- ently and do their share. *ve ~——Miss Alice Hughes, a cousin of Mr. James R.
