Aside from president Philip D. Foster and secretary J. Will Conley not two dozen members were present, and among these only one resident of Clinton county. The secretary reported a communication received from W. H. Gephart, superin- tendent of the Central Railroad of Penn- sylvania, in which he stated that on ac- count of the increased charge for cars, and the number of the latter required to handle the large crowd which attended every year being so great, he did not feel that the company would be warranted in | guaranteeing the expenses of the same | as it has done heretofore.

Special orders will case the only thing left would be for the | be filled through the committee in charge, committee to guarantee the expense, and as there was such a lack of interest, it was decided that it would be inadvisable to attempt the holding of a picnic this year and it was therefore officially de- clared off. . Under the head of new business the following resolution, received by from George W. Mason, of Lock Haw was presented: WHEREAS, Since our committee last met,it has pleased Almighty God to remove from our midst Frank Warfield, one of our most active members, therefore be it Resolved, That in his death this committee has lost a member whose usefulness to the Business Men's Picnic association is irreparable, Resolved further, that it is the sense of this com mittee that in the death of Mr. Warfield the com munity has lost a member of whom they were justly proud; a man of intelligence, good business qualifications, pleasant manner, liberal spirit, and possessing social qualities which drew io him and held fast the friendship of all who were favor- ed with his acquaintance. We lament that such a one should be called, so early, from the active duties of life, and in this manner we desire to ex- press our sadness of heart at his demise, and to register our regret for the loss of one whom to know was to honor and respect. Resolved further, that a copy of these resolu. tions be spread upon the minutes of the associa tion, be sent to the family of the deceased and be published in the county papers.

Ee HISTORY OF THE FIGHTING FORTY-FIFTH. —There has just been issued from the press of the Pennsylvania Grit, Williams. port, a history of the Forty-fifth regiment Pennsylvania volunteers which served so faithfully and gallantly during the Civil war. It isa handsome octavo volume of 530 pages and numerous illustrations of the various officers whoserved in the regi- ment as well as illustrations of a number of battle-grounds. The book, which is printéd on heavy plate paper, was writ- ten by seven members of the regiment and edited by Capt. Allen D. Albert, of Washington, D. C. The first contribu. tion is from our well known townsman, Gen. James A. Beaver, who was colonel of the regiment during most of its serv- ice. Many interesting reminiscences were contributed by other Centre coun- tians and as the regiment was made up mostly of Centre county soldiers it isa book of especial interest to their families and descendants. Any person desiring a coppy can secure same through W. H. Musser, of this place. A SNAKE STORY.—A story comes from Ferguson township that on Monday while John Houck was cradling oats in a clear- ing he feit something on his leg and naturally thought his foot had caught on a root. He made several steps and his leg being still encumbered he looked down and was almost paralyzed to dis- cover a big snake coiled around his leg. While not giving the species of the reptile our informant stated that while in coil around the man’s leg the snake at the same time made repeated attempts to bite him, but was unable to sink its fangs through Mr. Houck’s heavy clothing, This part of the story is evidently a mis- take, as a snake that coils around its vic. tim does not bite, and one that bites, like a rattler, a copperhead or a blowing viper, does not resort to coiling. The snake in question was probably a black- snake, as they are very tenacious in coil: Mr. Houck had some difficulty in disposing of his snakeship. WANTS TO AMEND COMPLAINT.—The Empire Lime company, of Bellefonte, has filed a petition with the State Railroad Commission for leave to amend its com- plaint entered in May last against the Central Railroad Company of Pennsyl- vania, wherein discriminatory switching charges were alleged, to now include a new count that the switching rates charg- ed from its siding to what is known as the Pennsylvania Junction, near Belle- fonte, are excessive and prohibitory, ef- fectually preventing their making any shipments to points on the Pennsylvania railroad. Itis just two weeks today since the Commission was in Bellefonte and heard the testimony on the original com. plaint, but so far have given no decision. who ask for the patronage of the public. ———— " ——Bellefonte friends of Rev.

Most of “Billy’s” knowledge about auto- mobiles was secured through a course in the Scranton International Correspond- ence school, which he completed about a month ago and received a grade of 94 per cent. He has also spent considerable time in one of the Bellefonte garages and thus gained considerable practical knowledge. Billy is a faithful and steady young man and will undoubtedly make good in his new position. —Mrs. James Coburn entertained a party of Bellefonte women at her coun- try home at Aaronsburg Saturday. The same evening Mrs. George Hawes gave a dinner for the youngerset at which by a number drawn by each two of the guests, the dish they were to prepare for the dinner was designated, the guests cook. ing and putting on the table the entire meal.

Wed- nesday afternoon Miss Mary Blanchard gave a picnic supper at the House of Lords on Nittany mountain. * ~=—The Pennsylvania railroad company and contractors A. L. Anderson & Co., | who have the contract for changing the route of the Bald Eagle Valley railroad, bumped up against a hard proposition when they attempted to go through the farm of Burdine Butler as well as the property of one ortwo others in the vicinity of Howard, but it is nothing to the trouble C. G. Griffin is having in mak- ing briefs of title of the property secured | for the new right-of-way. While deeds to all the properties are recorded and the chain of title is fairly complete, the deeds were drawn without giving measurements or distances and it is next to impossible to locate correctly a single tract of land. In case of litigation between adjoining land-owners a surveyor would have a hard time locating the line by looking over the old deeds. In the meantime, however, though Mr. Griffin is having |’ troubles of his own in his line of work the contractors are pushing the work on the new roadway quite rapidly and will undoubtedly have it completed in good ar time that the Lewisburg and Tyrone train is anywhere from ten to twenty minutes ~—Miss Mona Struble left last Friday to spend | —Mrs. Mose Levi returned on Tuesday from ~ | cowie nie | visit with her sister, Mrs. Edward Swiler, of Lock ¢ —Mrs. Miller Stewart spent the past week with | Haven. | friends in Philipsburg and at Martha. : —Miss Withers, who has been the guest of Mrs. John Blanchard, left Bellefonte Thursday. ~—Mrs. William Witmer departed for Somerset | | last Saturday to visit her mother, Mrs. Bowersox. ! —Miss Katherine Musser is in Bellefonte, hav- ing come last week to spend her vacation with | her mother. —Albert N.

From this place it will be taken to Snow Shoe Intersection by the Snow Shoe train and from there to Mill Hall on a through freight. When unloaded the car will be returned to Snow Shoe Intersection the same night and the next morning brought to Belle- fonte by the shifter in time to be sent down to Spring Mills on the local freight. This is the plan as now mapped out and when put in effect it will not only do away with the delay of the Lewisburg! passenger train but will afford better shipping facilities for the Condensary company. RAIN IN PLENTY. — During the past week this county has been favored with numerous rain storms but the one on Sunday afternoon was the record-breaker so far as the violence of the wind ac- companying it was concerned. And it was a very peculiar wind at that, swirling through the county in wide swaths, knock- ing some of the corn to the ground, fruit off the trees and blowing down fences, though in the final summing up the dam- age done was not very great. In Belle- fonte limbs were torn from the shade trees like the snap of a pipe stem, one of the chimneys on the Bush house was blown down and the brick scattered over the roof and several awnings torn from their fastenings. The rain fell in torrents and the streets resembled small rivers. There have been a number of rzin storms since and farmers can't complain of dry weather hurting the corn. In fact both the corn and late potatoes are growing splendidly and the prospects are for a fair crop of the former and large yield of the latter.
