The wedding took place in Los Angeles, California, on Sat- urday, September twenty-first, and Mr. and Mrs. Scully will make their home in east of Bellefonte, were obliged to kill fifty-one shogts on Monday on account of hog cholera infection. For some days past the hogs had shown symptoms of disease and on Monday morning Dr. S. M. Nissley was called to examine the so badly infected that vaccination was useless, and as a precaution against in- fecting the balance of the herd advised that they be killed at once. This was done and the remainder of the herd vacci- nated in the hope that they might be sav- ed, but the next day fourteen more show- ed such decided symptoms of infection that they, too, were killed, making Ker- stetter and Welty's total loss sixty-five head. All told Kerstetter and Welty had a herd of about seventy-five hogs, so that practically two-thirds of the total were killed on Monday. The hogs killed were spring shoats and would weigh about 120 pounds. They would all have been fat: tened and killed for market this fall and winter, had they not become diseased, and it is an easy matter to figure out how big the logs is to the owners, with pork selling at the price it now is. The next biggest loser in this section is Mr. William P. Humes, all his hogs that were infected having died. FooTBALL AT STATE COLLEGE.—To- morrow will mark the opening of the football season at State College when Carnegie Tech will be State's opponent on the gridiron. Many Bellefonters will doubtless attend the game as the outlook for the State team is so far very prob- lematical. Eight of the old players are back but two of them have been so bad- ly crippled in practice that they will not be able to get into the game tomorrow. Of the large number of new candidates the majority are light men and the coach- es are having difficulty finding seven men heavy enough for the line. While State ought to win tomorrow's game without much trouble it is the games that follow that are worrying them. October 12th the strong W. & J. team will appear on Beaver field and the game put up against them will show to a certain extent what chance State will have when she meets Cornell at Ithaca on October 19th. Villa Nova at State on October 26th wiil be another hard game, but only a forerun- ner to that of November 2nd when State will have the contest of the season with U. of P. at Philadelphia. The Quaker city boys have not forgotten last year’s overwhelming defeat and they will fight hard to retrieve their lost honor this year. Such is the condition that con- fronts the State team, and with two or three men knocked out every day in practice the outlook is anything but promising; and that is one reason why a big crowd of Bellefonters will like- ly go up to see tomorrow’s opening game, if the weather is pleasant. THE HUNTING SEASON.—While the bear hunting season opened on Tuesday up until this date there has not been any very great activity among Centre county hunters after this special line of game, notwithstanding the fact that they are reported quite plentiful in the mountain- ous districts. Bear are all right to talk about but the average hunter prefers going after squirrel or rabbits, as they are not nearly so dangerous ina tight place. It is only a few days over a month now until the opening of the deer hunt- ing season, and that is when the hunters will go out in force from all parts of the county. A numberof hunting clubs have already held meetings to begin their plans for their annual hunt. So far The Panthers, of this place, have done noth- ing and the members are undecided whether to go out or not, though it is quite likely they will get the fever a little later and when the time comes be found on their old camping ground in the Alle. ghenies. Reports from various mountain sections are in effect that deer will be quite plentiful from all indications. Pheasants, squirrel and wild turkeys are also reported quite plentiful, so that the hunter is likely to have a good season, Dogs KILL SHEEP.—Probably in no other place in Centre county are there more sheep killing dogs than in Ferguson town- ship. This condition has prevailed for a number of years and all of this summer farmers in that section, especially om Tadpole and in the neighborhood of Gatesburg, have suffered the loss of some of the best of their flock through the dep- redations of sheep-killing dogs, without being able to discover the identity of the treacherous canines. But on Tuesday afternoon, in broad daylight, a dog at- tacked George Rossman’s flock and be- fore he could be driven away had killed one and mangled several others. A son of Mr. Rossman recognized the dog and going to the house of the owner inform- ed him of what had happened. The own. er immediately got his gun and shot the dog, so that there is now at least one less worthless dog in that neighborhood and the farmers are breathing easier. ——The Bellefonte Academy football team opened the season last Saturday afternoon by defeating the P.R.R. ap prentice team of Altoona 41 to 0.

Just what the reason was could not be learned but it made it quite inconvenient for the various banks and business firms with a large correspondence. However, itis a delay that does not occur very often. ~The pictures now shown at the Lyric are all the General Film company release, and this is assurance of the fact that they are worth seeing.

Try the Lyric and see how you like the pictures now. ms os A ms — ——1It has been many a year since the pumpkin crop has been as large as it is this year. Every cornfield in the county in which they were planted is literally covered with them. There will be pump- kins for pies galore, pumpkins for the cattle and hogs and pumpkins in plenty for the Hallowe'en jack-o-lantern. In fact the crop is so large that it is a ques- tion what the farmers will do with them and many of the pumpkins will likely be allowed to rot in the field. ——. Gl femme ———The Howard Hustler is authority for the statement that Mr. George A. Jacobs, of that town, is a centennarian and over. It gives the date of his birth as April 9th, 1801, which would make him exactly 111 years, 5 months and 27 days old today. If that is correct he is un- doubtedly the oldest man in Centre coun- ty and probably the oldest man living in the United States. Though a little hard of hearing Mr. Jacobs is in good health and walks to the postoffice every nice day for his mail. ——The Osgood Athletic club eleven— the strongest football team in Altoona— will be the sturdy opponents of the Acad- emy boys on Hughes’ field tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon, October 5th, at 2.30 o'clock.

The Osgood play- ers always ‘“rooted” for the Academy boys during the past years when the Academy played in Altoona against the Altoona High school and it is the pur- pose ot the Academy boys to give them as good a time as possible during their brief stay in Bellefonte. Don’t miss the game, you lovers of football, for you will not have another chance until October 26th. There will be but one more game in Bellefonte after October 26th and that will be the Penn State Freshmen—Acad- emy contest. : ——Persons who have not seen from time to time the notices concerning the rummage sale to be held in the vacant house on Spring street, lately occupied by the Order of the Moose, are urged to save all the clothing or household fur- nishings they may not need, for the cause.

Several young ladies have or- ganized a guitar and mandolin club and early Tuesday evening they went to the Miller home on Bishop street and re. quested Miss Miller to play the piano for them during an hour's practice. All sounds of the approaching host were deadened by the music and it was not until the door was suddenly opened and a bevy of two score and more young ladiesfiled into the room that Miss Miller had even a suspicion of what was taking place. The surprise was complete but the young lady rose to the occasion and was a charming hostess during the even- ing. The shower included linen, china and glass ware and various dining room and kitchen utensils. The guests aiso very thoughtfully provided the refresh- ments for the evening and everybody had a jolly good time, despite the fact that there was not a man present. Miss Miller, however, declined to give the exact date of her wedding, though the best guessers aver that it is going to be very soon. i et of hot water from the stove and plac- ed it on the floor near the cradle while she went out to the cistern to get some cold water for use in scrubbing. While she was outside the baby got up in the cradle which rocked and threw it out right into the pail of hot water.
