—Mrs. Harry Stitzer has been entertaining dur-
ng the past week, Mrs. John Hess, of Pine Grove i
in the vicinity of Oak Hall. He is the
same man who under another name pass-
ed a forged check for $17.75 on Harry
Yeager during fair week last fall. At
the time Mr. Yeager succeeded in
learning the man’s identity and that he
had gone to Olean, N. Y., but for some
. reason the law was not invoked to bring
him bak and make him answer for his
crime. :
When the fact was learned that the
‘checks passed on January 13th were |
forgeries the police department took the
matter up. Chief of police Harry Duke-
man secured the old check from Harry
Yeager and comparing the writing on
that one with those recently passed found
it to be identical. The facts were then
laid before district . attorney D. Paul
: Fortney and he willingly consented to do
all he could to bring the man to justice.
He called up the chief of police of Olean
and inquired if Page was there. A day
or so later he got information that he
had been located in that place, working
.in a cutlery manufacturing plant. Chief
of police Dukeman went to Olean cn
Sunday and that night placed the young
man under arrest and brought him to
: Bellefonte on the 4.44 train Monday even-

bought at Mingles, the tie he got at Fau-
bles and was carrying the watch he got
' at the Potter-Hoy Hardware company
“with the fob and charm he bought at
| Casebeers and paid cash for. He admit-
ted his guilt and said that he came here
, purposely that day to buy the stuff he
did and pass the bogus checks because
; he had not been arrested for the one he
passed on Harry Yeager last October.
{ He came to town on the train which
{ usually arrives here at 1.07 p. m. but
, which did not get to Bellefonte that day
until after two o'clock on account of the
wreck at Howard, and left again for

Her lips and

| stated that the almost immediate dilution
of the poison by contact with the water

| was that the woman had committed
i suicide.
The woman was a daughter of Mr.
and Mr. and Mrs. Joshua Folk and was
born in Bellefonte on October 6th, 1870,
hence was 41 years 3 months and 16 days
old. She was twice married, her first
husband being Samuel Fisher. After his
death she married a Mr. Paul but the two
have not lived together for some time.
Whether it was domestic troubles which
caused her to commit suicide can only
be conjectured. For some time past she
has been making her home in the family
of Mr. and Mrs. Bond Fisher and doing
housework at various places around town.
She leaves one child, her parents and a
number of brothers and sisters. Follow-
ing the coroners inquest the body was
removed to the home of her parents on
Jail hill from where the funeral was held
on Wednesday afternoon. Burial was
made in the Union cemetery.

“Little Miss Kut-Up” was given its
first Presentation at the opera house last
evening, and today when the question is
asked: “What did you think of the
show?” the invariable reply is: “It'sa
corker. Decidedly clever and all to the
good.” From the time the curtain goes
up until the close of the performance the
whole production has a swing and ‘go’
that carries the audience with it, and >
laughable situations keep everyone in a
roar. Hugh Fay, the comedian as “Sher-
lock Hunter” a detective, is a host in
himself. He has a close second in Elma
