stated that according toc information he
had received the borough had no right
to remove the board, as they would be
trespassing on private property. Presi-
dent Keller stated that he believed it
would be best to let the matter rest for the

of this place, were quietly married last
evening. The bridegroom is a son of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles McClellan and is
employed in Hazel Bros. grocery store.
——The Bellefonte curb market is
practically over for this year, thougha
few farmers and produce growers come
in on regular market days with potatoes,
apples, pumpkins, turnips, etc. Late as
the season is a few roasting ears were of-
fered for sale this week.
~The Lyric continues to show a
good program of moving pictures every
evening, and many persons are attracted
there because of the quality of the pic-
tures. Manager Harper has a change of
program every night, so that there is al-
ways something new to be seen.
——Fresh Curtin made buckwheat
flour, than which there is none better, is
on sale now at all the groceries in Belle-
fonte. It is guaranteed fresh. pure and
wholesome and as everybody enjoys good
buckwheat cakes the right kind of flour
to make them is now on the local mar-
ket.
——There were two arrivals at the
Bellefonte hospital the latter part of last
week, Mrs. Charles Hughes giving birth
te a little daughter and Mrs. Earl Tib-
bens a little son. The Hughes’ have
named their baby Daisy Graham Hughes,
in honor of Miss Daisy Graham, at the
Academy.
——The annual charity bali, under the
auspices of the Woman's Club of Belle-

tume, representing whatever country
they may choose.
——George Lentz, a Williamsport
young man, who was accidentally shot by
a young woman on Wednesday of last
week while walking along the street in
company with another young man, was
formerly 2 student at the Bellefonte
Academy. Fortunately the wound is not
considered a very dangerous one.
——As the result of a fall Wednesday
evening, at her home on Spring street,
Mrs. D. G. Bush is in a serious condi-
tion, suffering from a broken hip. Mrs.
Bush, who is very much broken in
health, after the long illness from which
she is only recovering, had not regained
her usual strength, and always an unusu-
ally energetic woman, it is thought she
overestimated her endurance and the un-
fortunate accident was due to exhaustion.
——A lamp exploded in the home of
Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Gates, on east Lamb
street, last Saturday evening, and it was
only by the prompt assistance of neigh-
bors in smothering the flames that a bad
fire was averted. Mrs. Gates had the
lamp in her hand at the time it explod-
ed, but fortunately escaped without any
burns. On Tuesday evening the oil in a
lamp at the Thomas Murphy home on
Lamb street caught fire, but Mrs. Mur-
phy had time enough to throw the lamp
out of doors before it exploded.

meeting and the minutes of the last meet-
Oscar Wetzel was present in the inter-
est of P. B. Crider & Son, presenting
council with a statement of the borough's
indebtedness to the firm on account of
the mortgage and judgment held against
the Green mill property and requesting a
payment of $1,000 to be applied on the
liquidation of borough taxes. The
amount due was $2,964.08, and upon mo-
tion an order for $1,000 was authorized
to be given Mr. Crider to apply on taxes,
W. D. Zerby was present representing
N. B. Spangler, attorney for the county
commissioners, who requested that the
borough make settlement for its share of
the High street bridge. Mr. Zerby stated
that the claim as furnished to him, and
certified from the minutes of the county
commissioners, called for the payment of
one-third the total cost of the bridge,
which was $8,750. The minutes of the
special meeting of council held October
5th, 1911, called for the purpose of taking
definite action in regard to the building
of a new bridge, obligated council to the
payment of only $1,500, one-third of the
contract price tor repairing the old bridge.
To get at some definite understanding
and settlement of the matter the ques-
tion was referrca to the Street conmmis.
tee and borough solicitor for investiga-
tion and report.
Under the head of written communica-
tions a letter was read from the secretary
of the Tyrone borough council stating
that at their last regular meeting the
statement of the auditors of the Pruner
orphanage accounts had been referred to
the Finance committee for investigation
and report. Secretary Kelley stated that
inasmuch as the report was still in the
hands of the Finance committee of Belle-
fonte council, and after conferring with
the chairman of the committee, he an-
swered the letter in effect that the Belle-
fonte committee were willing to meet
them any time and look into the matter,
and this action was agreeable to council.
A written request was received from
William Rine, an employee in the Water
department, for an increase in salary of
twenty-five cents a day. The matter was
referred to the Water committee for in-
vestigation and report.
The Street committee reported that in
company with the borough engineer they
had inspected the Brant house pavement
on Allegheny street; the Morrison pave-
ment on Lamb street and that along the
Sands property and adjoining lot on Cur-
tin street and they all needed repairing.
The secretary was instructed to give the
customary notice.
Burgess John J. Bower stated that John
C. Rumberger would like to lease the
Green mill property, and would pay $300
a year for same. The property was leased
to Homer Carr last spring under the
agreement that he was to pay therefore
half the tolls received. Inasmuch as he
has never operated the mill the secretary
was instructed to notify him to vacate
the premises within thirty days.
Mr. Walker stated that there ought to
be a light at the alley near the James
Harris properties, as it was a loafing
place for men and women at various
hours of the night, and a light might pre.
vent such congregating.
Borough orders were authorized to the
amount of $1,287.50 after which council
adjourned.

are likely to miss something good. i
——The Bloomsburg Normal football
team will be the Academy's opponents
on Hughes field tomorrow afternoon and
| the game will surely be an exciting one.
The Normal was one of the teams that
defeated the Academy last year and last
Saturday they downed the Carlisle Indian |
reserves, but the Academy boys are de- |
termined to wipe out the sting of last
year's defeat, so that a hard game can be |
looked for. A good crowd should go out |
THE HUNTING SEASON.—]ust one weelt
from today, November 1st, will mark the
opening of the hunting season for squir:
rel, rabbits, quail, pheasants and wild
turkeys and during the ensuing week
shot guns will be taken outof their cases,
oiled and limbered up in preparation for
the event. Quite naturaliy the main
thing that all hunters ave interested in
is the quantity of game. As stated last
week wild turkeys are reported quite
plentiful throughout Bald Eagle valley,
both on Muncy mountain and in the foot
hills of the Alleghenies, but then they al
ways appear more plentiful before the
season opens than they are when a man
goes after them with a gun. Pheasants
also are said to be plentiful. One Belle-
fonte hunter who is accustomed to taking
long walks through the woods, told the
writer that during his perambulations last
Sunday he saw five of these birds and got
almost close enough to them to hit them
with a cane before they took fright and
flew away. Of course when he goes out
next Friday to look up these same birds
he will be lucky toget within gun shot of
them. So far as quail are concerned,
they are so scarce in Centre county that
they are not even considered in the game
line.
There are some squirrel in the wooded
sections of the county, especially where
there are a quantity of hickory nut trees,
but they are not nearly as plentiful as
they were a few years ago, and it will be
a lucky hunter who will be successful in
filling his game bag. When it comes to
rabbits, it can be said that they are quite
plentiful all over the county, and hunters
will no doubt have fine sport hunting
them, as there is just as much fun and
excitement in a good rabbit chase as
there is in hunting the average game. It

——Last Saturday afternoon Mrs
Foster Shearer and little nephew, Nevin
Shearer, of Zion, were driving along
Logan street in a buggy when one of the
hold-back straps broke. The horse
frightened and ran away, turning from
Logan street north on Spring street. At
Philip Beezer's residence both Mrs.
Shearer and the boy were thrown out,
the buggy passing over the latter's legs,
Both were picked up and carried into
Beezer's house where an examination
showed that while they were badly bruised
and shocked no bones were broken. The

defeat the Ithacans ever received trom
the State team. Interest in tomorrow's
game will centre around the condition
and improvement of the team over two
weeks ago, and their likelihood of win-
ning from Pennsylvania on Saturday of
next week.
——There are two things in the course
of events that everybody enjoys. First,
they like an abundance to eat when it
don’t cost too much; and secondly, the |
average human being enjoys lots of inno-
cent fun. With this fact in view the La-
dies Aid Society of the Pleasant Gap M.
E. church have decided to hold their au-
tumn festival on Hallow-e'en night at
Noll's hall. Oysters and Boston baked
beans will be served and as an induce-
ment to encourage a liberal patronage
only 15 cents will be charged for a full
meal. In addition the bargain’ counters
will have a goodly supply of gingham
work-aprons, sun bonnets, silk quilts, etc.

——This has been an unusual fall sea-
son and in various sections of the State
various kinds of trees and fruits have
blossomed the second time but none
of them have anything on Mrs. Oscar
Wetzel's red raspberries. They not only
blossomed the second time but grew fruit
as perfect and of as good quality as the
early crop. Of course they were not very
plentiful but on Tuesday morning Mrs,
Wetzel gathered the ripened crop and
had a quart of the berries, from which
she made some good old-fashioned rasp-
berry jam. As proof of the quality of the
crop she sent to this office a sprig on
which there were four large, ripe, juicy
berries and one that had not yet ripened,
and aside from the fact that they were
perhaps a little darker in color than the
first crop of berries they were very simi-
lar in every other way. i
nalia of a wireless receiving station will
be constructed. with wires running into
Blair & Son's jewelry store where the re-
ceiving instruments will be located. While
the station is designed primarily for the
correct time service everything sent out
from the government station at Wash:
ington will be receivable in Bellefonte.

GUNS CONFISCATED, FOREIGNERS FINED.
—For some time past the State Game
Commission at Harrisburg heard rumors
of pot hunting in Centre county and the
supposition was that most of it was being
done by foreigners. Accordingly on Tues-
day game wardens Mothersbaugh and
Davidson came to Bellefonte and taking
out search warrants secured the services
of constable Horace Musser and pro-
ceeded to search the various foreign
colonies in this section. At Armors Gap
Tony Coko was arrested for having a gun
in his possession; at the old glass works
Mike Shobuck was taken into custody
and at the Chemical Lime company’s
plant Tony Benzi was arrested because
a gun was found in his home, though he
disclaimed ownership. The guns were all
confiscated and the men were fined $25
and costs each, a total of $87.

that has thrilled thousands and moved
the world to tears, will be given a splen-

few who have not read Mrs. Henry
Wood's touching story of the "Earl's
Daughter,” and there must be but a hand-
