open every night. There it is comfortable
and pleasant, and you will get one solid
hour of good entertainment for the small
sum of five cents. A big feature picture
every Friday evening, and these are
always worth seeing. The price is never
less than five cents, and on the other
hand it is never more, no difference how
elaborate the attraction.

made a trip to Pleasant Gap and inter-
viewed constable William Irwin, but that
gentleman counseled different
clared he wouldn’t sell and wouldn't kill
but would take the dog away. On Sun-
day the Fin and his family packed their
limited household effects, crated the dog
and made ready to get out of Bellefonte
on Monday morning's 9:15 train. When
Mr. Winton heard this he got the officers
busy and after midnight on Sunday swore
out a warrant for the man’s arrest, also
the dog.
Early Monday morning a drayman
brought the Fin's belongings to the rail-
road station, the crated dog hidden under
boxes and old trunks. The officers, how-
ever, were on the job and with their
search warrant were able to locate the
dog. Mrs. Zalisen is a woman above the
average size and she protested against
the taking of the dog. In fact she pro-
tested to the extent of shaking her fist
right under the officer's nose and swear-
ing in as many different languages as she
was capable of, but it availed nothing
and Mr. dog was hauled up the street
and safely deposited behind lock and key
in "Squire Henry D. Brown's office under
the Lyric. There it was kept until Mon-
day afternoon when it was carried out
into an alley and promptly sent to dog
h-—eaven by constable William Irwin, of
Spring township, who blew part of its
head off with a shotgun. 'Squire Brown
then cut off the balance of the head with
an axe and the same is being examined
to see if the dog was afflicted with rabies.
The rest of the carcass was buried and
so endeth the tale of the’ Finlander’s
dog.
At this writing the boy who was bitten
is getting along as well as can be ex-
pected and it is to be hoped that no seri-
ous consequences will follow.
INJURED IN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT.--Mrs.
R. T. Comley, of Unionville, is nursing a
badly contused shoulder and her daugh-
ter-in-law, Mrs. Elwood Comley, has a
broken arm on account of the buggy in
which they were riding being run into by
an automobile driven by Thomas Kelley,
of Snow Shoe, on Tuesday morning. The
two ladies with Mrs. Elwood Comley’s
baby were up at Runville and had start-
ed on the return trip home. Mr. Kelley
with another man and two ladies were
on their way to Bellefonte. There are
various stories as to how the accident
happened, so that it is difficult to tell
which one is correct, but the one thing
certain is that the car ran into the bug-
gY, upsetting the vehicle and throwing
the occupants out. The elder Mrs. Com-
ley was fortunate in not sustaining more
serious injuries but Mrs. Elwood Comley
had her left arm broken and dislocated.
The baby was uninjured. The ladies
were taken home and are now getting
along as well as can be expected. The
buggy was considerably damaged but the
horse was uninjured. The automobile
which figured in the accident, it is claim-
ed, is the same one which killed the
Linn-McCoy Iron company mule less
than two weeks ago.
Miss MiriAM HAZEL BADLY INJURED
IN RUNAWAY.—Yesterday morning Chris-
tian Hoy, son of county auditor Siny H.
Hoy, came to Bellefonte and when he had
concluded his errands he was accom-
panied home by Miss Miriam Hazel, the
sixteen year old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Thomas Hazel. They were in sight
of the Hoy home and while going down a
hill one of the hold-back straps broke al-
lowing the buggy to run against the
horse. The animal frightened and ran
away throwing both occupants out. Miss
Hazel fell on a rock and was seriously in-
jured. She was brought to the Bellefonte
hospital as soon as possible where it was
found that she had sustained a deep cut
in the head at the top of the right ear
and it is feared that her skull is fractured.
She also sustained a number of bad cuts
and bruises on different parts of her
body. Up to two o'clock in the afternoon
she had not recovered consciousness and
it is impossible to tell just how serious
her injuries may prove.
Young Hoy was thrown over the fence
into a field, but escaped serious injuries.
The buggy was more or less damaged.

——0On Monday evening James Reed
laid down on the turntable at the Central
Railroad of Pennsylvania depot to take a
snooze. He snoozed so long and so pro-
foundly that he failed to hear the night
train and when the engine was run onto
the turntable Reed was shoved off into
the pit. He was gathered up and found
to be bleeding profusely but refused to
be taken to the hospital. Examination
by a doctor disclosed the fact that 2 three |

attic to be used as a rummage sale box,
into which everything can be put when
discarded, will lessen the trouble of gath-
ering things together later when asked
for a donation. Clothing of all kinds,
hats, shoes, furniture, dishes, pictures,
anything not needed but saleable put
aside for the committee in charge will be
greatly appreciated.
—Last week A. L. Bascomb, who
during the past school year conducted |
the boarding department of McAllister
hall, State College, made an assignment
for the benefit of his creditors. His lia-
bilities are placed at three thousand dol-
lars, while his only assets are his f{ur-
nishings, which are composed principally
of dining room and kitchen furniture.
D. Paul Fortney was appointed assignee.
It is rumored that McAllister hall will
be dismantled as a boarding house for
students and remodeled into class rooms
for college use.

——The attention of the parents of
children of Centre county is called to the
fact that the date of the Centre county
fair has been changed from the first of
October to the first of September, giving
them a month less time in which to pre-
pare. Two classes having been made in
the young people's department, one in-
cluding those under fourteen years and
the second from fourteen to eighteen
years, offers a greater inducement for
younger children to enter their work for
competition. Parents are asked to en-
courage their children to prepare an ex-
hibit and thus become interested in the
Fair.
—*] wish to bid you all good-bye,
and wish you a long life,” was the mes-
sage division operator A. A. Witter, of
Tyrone, sent to every operator on the Ty-
rone division of the Pennsylvania rail-
road on Wednesday. This was because
he was that day retired on account of
having reached the age limit of seventy
years. Mr. Witter is very well known in
Bellefonte and his many acquaintances
here are gratified in the fact that not-
withstanding his three score years and
ten he still enjoys good health and his
retirement from active duty will give
him more time to devote to visiting his
friends. His successor as division opera-
tor is Wilson T. Charles.
——Months ago the Bellefonte borough
council took action requiring the remov-
al of the strip of plank from the breast
of the dam above the WATCHMAN office.
The strip in question was placed there
over fifteen years ago by permission of
council, but on condition that the same
be removed upon request. The request
has been made repeatedly and a piece of
the strip about fifteen feet in length has
been removed but the balance is stil]
there. Spring creek is now quite low, as
it always is at this season of the year,
and the result is that during the day there
is hardly enough water coming over the
dam to keep the fish in the stream alive.
Certain it is that there is not enough of
water to cover the bed of the stream and
wash away the sewerage and the result
is not only very unsightly but creates a
stench that is nauseating and cannot help
but be very unsanitary. Why is it that
the proper officials do not see that the
visiting Mrs. Foust's parents, Mr. and Mrs.
request of council is complied with?

trout fishing season closed Wednesday and
now lovers of the art piscatorial will have '
to content themselves with angling for
bass along the Bald Eagle or hang up
their rod and line until the fifteenth of
April, 1913. Experienced fishermen dis-
agree as to the success of the trout fish-
ing during the season just closed. Some
aver that fewer trout were caught than
have been for years while others declare
that more were taken, at least from some
of the streams in this section of the State.
So far as the writer can judge fewer trout
were taken from Spring creek and Lo-
gan's branch this year than last, but this
is partly accounted for by the fact that
two months before the season opened
last year from four to five thousand
adult trout were put into these streams
from the Bellefonte fish hatchery and
most of them were caught the first week
of the season. This year a few were
turned out into Logan's branch but the
number was nothing compared to last '
year. Fishing creek, however, afforded
some good sport and even up to the close |
of the season fair catches were made
