L. Clevenstine, the eighteen month's old
son of Mr. and Mrs. William L. Cleven-
stine, of near Zion, fell into a kettle of
" | boiling water and was scalded to death.
Mrs. Clevenstine had heated the water
for washing in a large kettle which stood
in a walled in fire place and on a level
with a walk leading from the kitchen
door. She left the child sitting in the
kitchen door while she went to look after
some other household matters and when
she returned and found it missing start-
ed a search which resulted in finding her
baby boy dead in the kettle of boiling
water. The fatality was a severe shock
to the parents and they have the sympa-
thy of everybody in that community.
The funeral was held at nine o'clock on
Wednesday morning. Dr. Ambrose M.
Schmidt, of Bellefonte, had charge of the
services and burial was made in the Hub-
lersburg cemetery.

cob Miller, the nine year old son of Mr.
and Mrs. Samuel K. Miller, who live near
the Humes farm along the mountain
above Coleville, was dragged to death by
a runaway horse. Mrs. Miller was pre-
paring to drive to below Milesburg to
visit her sister and after the harness had
been put on the horse, which is a three
year old, the boy was told to take him to
the creek for water Instead of leading
the animal he drove him with the lines
and evidently must have wrapped them
around his arms in order to the better
hold the horse. While at the creek sev-
eral boys happened along and one of
them by cracking a whip frightened the
unable to free himself of the lines and
he was dragged down through Coleville
to the Bellefonte Central roundhouse
where the horse was caught, a distance
of about half a mile. Every stitch of
clothing was torn from the boy's body
except his shoes and the flesh was also
torn from his face. Undertaker Naginey
prepared the body for burial, which was
made in the Union cemetery yesterday.
THROWN FROM AUTOMOBILE.
On the evening of the Fourth Robert
Adams (colored) jumped upon the run-
ning board of one of the automobiles
hauling the Millheim band, when they
started home and rode down High street.
At the bridge the machine was stopped
and he was told to get off but did not do
so and going out Water street he at-
tempted to jump off with the result that
he was thrown and sustained a number
of bad cuts on the head and face. How-
ever, he is now abie to be out and around,
but with no desire for a repetition of
the jumping feat. 3
BOY'S HAND BADLY MANGLED. y
gaged in hauling in hay on the Dr. Hayes
farm in Spring township Claude Corl, the
four year old son of Calvin Corl, got his
right hand in the pulley used on the rope
to operate the hay fork. Only quick ac-
tion in cutting the rope saved the boy's
lite, but as it was his hand was so badly
mangled that it may yet have to be
amputated.
PAT RYAN VICTIM OF ASSAULT.
On Saturday afternoon Pat Ryan was
assaulted by Linn Saylor, who kicked
him in the face, knocking out several
teeth and cutting his lip and cheek so
that it took seven stitches to close the
wound. Pat was taken to the hospital
where he is getting along as well as can
be expected. Saylor was arrested but
settled the case.

——The Bellefonte Y. M. C. A. swim"
ming pool is out of commission because
| of the fact that it cannot be emptied and
with fresh water, When the
was built a cess pool was dug to
open rock which was believed ample to
carry off the water but it did not prove
to be the case and the consequence was
the pool wouldn't drain. A drain pipe is
now being laid from the pool to the main
sewer on High street which, when com.
pleted, will afford better drainage than
could be gotten in any other way.
——There is nothing more annoying
than bad feet. On the other hand there
is nothing more grateful to the owner of
a pair of troublesome pedals than the
deft work of an experienced chiropodist:
Isaac Mitchell Esq., and John Curtin visit-
ed such a place in Lock Haven on Tues.
day afternoon and both returned with
understandings so comfortable that they
almost forgot that they had any at all and
what they were for. At least that must
have been the state of Mr. Mitchell's
mind for he never heard the trainmen
call “Bellefonte” and didn’t realize that
he was flying westward away from home
until the train reached Unionville, where
he got off and telephoned here for an
auto to come to his relief.

Mrs. David Haines, of Beaver and Hoy
row, and while they made no effort to
have a golden wedding celebration their
friends gave them a most delightful sur-

thirty people were present and the aged
couple were so overcome with the kind-
ness and generosity of their guests that
they were unable to express their grati.
tude. Rev. C. W. Winey was present and
acted as the spokesman of the crowd in
conveying the best wishes of all for the
future health and happiness of both Mr.
and Mrs. Haines. The refreshments
served during the evening were contrib.
uted by the guests and in addition Mr.
and Mrs. Haines were the recipients of
quite a collection of very useful presents
as well as a purse of money.
