REAL WINTER WEATHER.—Old Boreas. ——Phil Ott and his comedians in
got on the job last Thursday night for
fair and since that time the two kinds of
men in Bellefonte who have been wear-
ing smiles that wont come off are the
coal dealers and the ice men. The bal-
ance of the population of Bellefonte have
been shivering and shaking all week and
wondering what has gone wrong with the
prognostications of those weather-wise
prophets who declared that we would
have a very mild winter. Comparatively
mild it was up until last Thursday even-
ing when a blinding snow storm was fol-
lowed with a drop of about fifteen degrees !
in the thermometer in three hours and
by Friday morning it was down to the
zero mark. High wind prevailed all day '
Friday and although it fell that evening
by Saturday morning the weather was the
coldest of the year, the thermometers in
town registering from two to ten degrees
below zero, according to location. The
cold prevailed all day Saturday, Sunday
and Monday, the thermoneter never ris-
ing over ten degrees above zero until
Monday evening when there was enough
rise in the temperature to permit of
another snowfall of about four inches. |
As usual the snow was followed by high
wind and by Tuesday morning it was
again very much on the blizzard order. :
Though it has continued cold and rough |
since then there is consolation in the pre-
dictions of the weather man that milder
weather will prevail the latter part of
this week and the beginning of next.
As stated in the beginning of this
article the ice men are now happy.
Bellefonte has been experiencing an
ice famine the past month, as all the
dealers were out of natural ice and the |
only sources of supply were from Doll's |
ice plant and what could be purchased in |
| other places. The cold weather, however, \
is producing the real article and by Mon- i
day morning the various ice dams had a ;
coating from six to seven inches thick. |
Naturally all the dealers and a number |
of private individuals began cutting that |
day and so far several hundred tons have |
been cut and stored. Of course, not any-
ways near the supply needed has yet been
housed, but if the cold weather continues
another week the ice men will sleep more
complacently at night than they have
been doing the past month.

AN INJURY THAT PROVED, A BENEFIT.—
About ten years ago John Johnson,of Ma-
rengo, this county, was out in the woods
chopping wood when his left eye was
pierced by a thorn and as a result of the
injury a scum grew over the eye destroy-
ing the sight thereof. About a month
ago he was again out in the woods chop- !
ping when a thorn pierced his right eye,
rendering him totally blind. He is a
member of the Knights of Malta and his
brother knights prevailed upon him to
consult a specialist. Consequently about
ten days ago he went to the Wills Eye
hospital, Philadelphia, for treatment, and |
during the past week his family received
word that the physicians not only fixed |
up his right eye so that the sight will not |
be entirely destroyed but removed the |
scum from the left eye which has been

Thursday, January 18th, at Garman’s
——Sabbath morning, January 14th,
the congregation of the Presbyterian
church of Bellefonte will observe the
Sacrament of the Lord's Supper. At this
time it is expected that each member of
the church be present to engage in this
ordinance whereby we “show forth the
Lord's death till he come.”
——Some of the schools in both the
new High school and brick buildings had
to be closed this week because it was im-
possible to keep the rooms comfortable.
At the High school building it was not
because of the inefficiency of the heating
system but because of something getting
wrong with the mechanism, which was
proved by the fact that the temperature
would go down to fifty degrees then sud-
denly jump to eighty.
——A corps of civil engineers are en-
gaged surveying on the preposed state
road routes through Buffalo valley, on the
way from Lewisburg to the Narrows and
into Centre county. The extreme cold has
put a halt on the work but with milder
weather they will resume work and
will likely make their appearance
in this county before very long. When
they do it is possible a survey will be
made of all the proposed main routes
through the county,

——Fred Lewis Pattee, professor of
English language and literature at The
Pennsylvania State College, is the author
of a novel entitled “The Breaking-Point,”
which will be issued on January 31st
from the press of Small, Maynard & Co.,
Inc., of Boston, Mass. In the publisher's
announcement they state that ‘Professor
Pattee has written an absorbing novel,
and one of serious importance.” They
further state that “not since the days of
‘The Damnation of Thereon Ware’ have
we had a book which has so demanded
the thoughtful consideration of men and
women who have at heart the problems
of the church and its work in the world.”
The book will be sold at $1.25 per copy,
or by mail for $1.37.

-—From all indications there will be a
large number of public sales this spring
and much moving around among farmers.
March is always the big month for the
public vendue of farm stock and ma-
chinery but February also has a goodly
number. Every year from two to three
hundred thousand dollars worth of farm
stock and implements change hands
through the medium of the public sale,
and probably half the amount goes to
farmers who have acquired a competence
and wish to retire to private life or else
quit the farm to engage in business of
some kind. This is a good object lesson
that there is money in the farm if up-to
date methods are used, and very few
farmers these days are not up-to-date.

SEARCHING TITLES. — The Potter Ab. |
stract company, of Pittsburg, has been |
awarded the job of searching the records |
and making the briefs of title of the land |
selected by the prison commission as a
site for the new penitentiary. Chester
O. Dunlap, of Lock Haven, who has rep-
resented the company in this section of
the State the past eight or ten years, is
now in Bellefonte in charge of the work.
He has three assistants and he estimates
that it will take from six weeks to two
months to do the work. The site se-
lected at Peru includes about . thirty-five
separate tracts or parcels of land and the
title to each one will have to be traced
back without a break in the chain to the
original patentee. Only a perfectly clear
title will be accepted by the State as the
institution once erected will be a per-
manent one and naturally there must be
no flaw in anything relating thereto.
DroprPED DEAD ON ROAD. —On Friday
afternoon, December 29th, Mr. and Mrs.
I. K. Hetrick and J. F. Longwell left
Bellefonte to drive over the Seven moun-
tains to their home at Milroy. When
near Pat Gherrity's place on the moun-
tain one of the party inquired as to the
time of day. Mr. Hetrick unbuttoned his
coat and pulled his watch from his
pocket, but before he could state the time
he was stricken with apoplexy and fell
to the ground, dying almost instantly.
The body was carried to Gherrity’s home
where it was kept until an undertaker
could be secured from Milroy to convey
the remains home. Hetrick had walked
some distance up the mountain and it is
possible the attack was brought on from
over-exertion, though he had made no
complaint about feeling bad.

~The two story school building at
Mackeyville was entirely destroyed by
fire last Friday night and everything in it
went up in smoke except one small book
case. The fire evidently originated from
a defective heating apparatus, as once or
twice before the ceiling in the lower
room caught fire but it was always dis-
covered in time to extinguish the flames
without doing much damage. The loss
on the building is estimated at two thous-
and dollars with only eight hundred
dollars insurance.

the front only to see the boy disappear
through the door. His identity being
‘known he was arrested on Wednesday
and that evening taken before 'Squire
Brown for a hearing. He admitted the
theft, said that he got a one dollar bill,
but stated that the job had been planned
by another boy who took the money from
him and kept all of it for himself. On
account of the tender age of the boy Mr.
Doll agreed to his discharge after the
‘Squire had given him a good lecturing.

—On his way down street one day
last week Samuel Miller, one of the bar-
tenders at the Bush house, slipped and
fell on the pavement in front of the Gar-
man residence, breaking his left arm.
The injury will keep him from work for
some weeks und is naturally considerable
of a hardship. There are a lot of pave-
ments in Bellefonte this week that are
quite dangerous owing to their coating of
snow and ice, and while it seems almost
an impossibility to clean them off, yet
property owners are liable for damages to
any person who is injured and brings
swt. All pavements can be cleaned and
kept clean if the work is done in time, as
is proven by the fact that some of them
are as clean of snow and ice as in sum-
mer time.
——W. G. Knapper, of Philipsburg, and
D. A. Kohler, of Scranton, two foresters
in the employ of the Chestnut Tree
Blight Association who were located in
Bellefonte a month or more searching for
the blight in Centre county, were on Sat-
urday moved to Port Matilda to work out
from that place. While working out from
Bellefonte they found only one place
where the blight had appeared and that
was on Muncy mountain a short distance
west of the Haupt farm and the disease
there was in its first stages. In the moun-
tainous districts that have been burned
over by forest fires it is impossible to dis-
tinguish the blight owing to the blackened
and charred condition of the tree trunks,
but at that the young men expressed
their opinion that the blight had not in-
fected the chestnut trees of Centre coun-
ty to any appreciable extent. It is re-
ported, however, that it has been dis-
covered in the chestnut groves between
Port Matilda and Tyrone and that is the
reason the Messrs. Knapper and Kohler
were moved to the former place, to in-
recover 50 as to! e around again as usual.

FOR A GAME PRESERVE.—The State
Game Commission is now agitating the
establishment of three new game pre-
serves in the State and Centre county is
being favorably considered as a good lo-
cation for one of them. The State now
owns nine hundred acres of land on
Nittany mountain, adjacent to the site
selected for the new penitentiary, and
which is wooded thickly enough to make
good protection for all kinds of game.
There are also hundreds of acres of
state lands over on the Seven mountains,
in the neighborhood of the Bear Mead-
ows. which would make an ideal preserve.
All state game preserves are protected
by wardens the year round and no tres.
are concerned. This protection naturally
makes game more plentiful in the imme-
diate vicinity of the preserve and it is
therefore a desirable institution. If Cen.
tre county is to be selected, however, it
will be necessary for the citizens to show
their desire and interest in a way that
will impress the Commission favorably.
