five years old on Wednesday of last week,
having been born on July 10th, 1827, so
that he is the oldest living native of the
BorouGcH Counci. Notes.—The hot
weather this summer must have sort of a
stay-at-home effect upon Belletonte coun-
cilmen as a bare quorum of five members
is all that turns up at the regular meet-
| ings nowadays. But even that number
is ample for the transaction of the small
amount of business brought before them.
At Monday night's meetinga communi-
cation was received from the Bell Tele-
phone company of Pennsylvania in reply
to the notice given them by the secretary
of council to remove the large poles in
front of the Bush house and the one at the
corner of the Potter-Hoy hardware store
within thirty days, in which they state
that they have about completed arrange-
ments for the removal of said poles as
well as the removal of all the poles on
High street, but as it will be impossible
to do the work within the specified time
they virtually asked for an extension of
the time limit. The matter was allow-
ed to hang over until the next meeting
Nothing of importance was reported by
any of the committees, though the Fire
and Police committee reported the fire
at Montgomery's stable on Saturday
evening. '

ough found everything. Both bids were
referred to the Street committee.
Contractor R. B. Taylor's bill for $669,
for balance due on the paving of High
street, was presented but before any
motion was made to pay the same Dr.
Brockerhoff stated that he objected to
the payment of the bill at this time be-
cause the work had not yet been official
ly inspected and accepted; and also be-
cause Mr. Taylor had agreed to fix the
paving in the street at Aiken's cornerand
had not done the work satisfactorily.
The bill was held over.
Mr. Judge stated that the citizens of

DR. HUNT TO LEAVE STATE COLLEGE. —
It is reported on reliable authority that
Dr. Thomas F. Hunt, dean of the school
of agriculture and director of the experi-
ment station at The Pennsylvania State
College, will leave that institution in the
near future to go to Berkeley Cal., as
dean of the school of agriculture at the
University of California. Dean Hunt
came to State College from Cornell six
years ago to succeed Dr. Armsby as head
of the agricultural department and direc-
tor of the experiment station. That he
has been very successful is shown in the
fact that since January, 1912, the agricul-
tural department of The Pennsylvania
State College has ranked first of all col-
leges in the country.
Dr. Hunt will go to California with the
determination of making the agricultural
department of the University of Califor-
nia the ieading one in the country. He
has been assured of unlimited funds and
will be unrestricted in the salary limit of
his assistants. Just when he will leave
State College hus not been divulged but
it is believed it will be before the open.
ing of the college year in September.
A BAN ON THE HOBBLE SKIRT.—The
Bellefonte police have put a ban on the
hobble skirt, that is the skirt that is hob-
bled from the waist down so that every
curve and line of the wearer is almost as
plain to the public eye as if no skirt were
worn, and hereafter any woman appear-
ing thus costumed will run the risk of ar-
rest and confinement somewhere or oth-
er until she can secure and array herself
in clothes that will pass inspection before
the police department's critical eye.
At least such is the sensational story
going the rcunds of the town now, be-
cause of the allegation that a few even-
ings ago a certain young woman very
hobbly habilitated was ordered off the
street under threat of arrest. Of course
some consideration may be shown for a
trim ankle and an alluring form but at
that it will be best not to draw the hob-
bles too tight.
RAIN AT LAsT.—Following a long per-
iod of dry and extremely hot weather
the drought in Bellefonte and certain
portions of Centre county was broken on
Monday evening by a severe thunder
shower which passed over most of the
county. While an abundance of rain
fell in the half hour of the storm's
duration it failed to relieve the depress-
ing heat to any appreciable extent, though
it did purify the atmosphere. And it
might here be noted that Monday was
St. Swithin's day, and according to an
old saw, if it rains on that day rain will
fall on forty consecutive days, so there is
a possibility of more rain in the near fu.
ture.
SPECIAL TRAIN.—We have just learned
that a special train will leave Lock Haven
at 6.45 a. m. on August first, (Methodist
day at Lakemont Park) and run into
Bellefonte, arriving at Altoona at 9.27.

—While on his way to Bellefonte
last week Frank H. Clemson ran into a
telephone pole and completely wrecked
the front part of his automobile. The
accident happened while coming down
the long hill above Roopsburg. It began
to rain and Frank turned around to get

——Between one and two hundred
men, mostly foreigners are now employ-
ed on the job of changing the route of
the Bald Eagle Valley railroad in the
neighborhood of Howard, but at that the
contractors, A. L. Anderson & Co., of Al-
toona, are anxious for more workmen.
The contract is quite a large one and in
order to complete it before next winter
sets in the work will have to be pushed
more rapidly than it is at present. The
new road bed will be constructed for a
double track, although the second track
will not be put down this year.

workmen are now working by way of
Moshannon on the road to Philipsburg.

inability to secure enough laborers.

pretty big to the young man and he took
the first train to Lock Haven for a good
time.
When Toner was missed from the liv-
ery stable an investigation was started spent several days visiting friends in Bellefonte |

whole transaction. The Lock Haven po-

peace Hayes Schenck, at which time he
virtually confessed to the whole trans.
