Mr. Armstrong is with Dr. W. W. Orr,

for which he is admirably adapted.
—Joseph L. Montgomery had a lot
of trouble this week on account of the
clogging of the sewer pipe running from
his residence on Allegheny street down
Spring street to the creek. Fire hose
was used at first in an attempt to force
the obstruction by excessive water pres-
sure but that did not prove a success and
the sewer had to be dug open at repeated
intervals on Lamb street. The small-
ness of the sewer pipe doubtless was the
reason for its clogging.
Edward T. Jamison, of Gregg town-
ship, brought his wife to the Bellefonte
hospital last Saturday for the purpose of
undergoing an operation. She stood the
operation very well and has since been
getting along nicely with every indication
of a permanent recovery. Mr. Jamison
remained in Bellefonte over Sunday and
on Monday morning got a telephone mes-
sage that one of his horses had been
kicked by another and was pretty badly
hurt, so that his troubles did not come
singly.
~About 8:30 o'clock last Thursday
evening fire was discovered on the first
floor of Thad Hamilton's planing mill, at
the rear of his residence on Howard
street. ‘The Logan fire company respond-
ed promptly and had a stream on within
a few minutes with the result that the
building was saved from destruction.
Some damage was done to the machinery
put the loss was not great and is covered
by insurance. As nobody was around
the mill at the time the origin of the fire
is a mystery.
—Qwing to the fact that the inside
pages of the WATCHMAN were printed a

right will require considerable time and
attention of the heaith officer and the
Board of Health were unanimous in ask-
ing council that he be allowed five dol-
lars a month extra for this service. Coun.
‘ cil voted to allow him that amount.
Henry Tibbens presented a petition
| from residents of east Howard street set-
ting forth the fact that owing to the
| small size of the water main extending
| out that thoroughfare they were without
adequate water facilities, even for ordi-
nary household uses, let alone fire pro-
tection, and asked that a greater water
supply be given them. The matter was
referred to the Water committee for in-
i
i
Chairman Cherry, of the Sanitary com-
mittee, stated that in accordance with
instructions given at the last meeting of
council the committee and a delegation
of the Board of Health inspected the
creek just below the spring and found
that the complaint of John J. Fisher re-
garding the clogged-up condition of the
same, as made at last meeting of council,
was well founded, and they recommended
that the stream be thoroughly cleaned
out under the direction of the borough
engineer. Also that two sewer pipes
emptying into the westside of the stream
be extended down about fifty feet and
that residents in that section be forbidden
to make the creek a dumping ground for
refuse in the future. The report was ac-
cepted and the borough engineer will be
instructed to clean the creek.
The Finance committee presented the
report of the borough auditors for the
thirteen months from December 1st, 1911,
to January 6th, 1913. They also present-
ed the report of the borough treasurer
showing a balance of $1,832.19.
Mr; Beezer, of the Street committee,
presented the request of Charles Garbrick
for permission to lay a crossing over south
Water street at a point about opposite
the spring. The request was granted, he
to put the crossing down under the
supervision of the Street committee and
borough engineer.
Notes for $1,000, $700 and $8,009 were
renewed, a new note for $2,000 authorized
and bills to the amount of $1,247.71 ap-
proved after which council adjourned.
STATE CoLLEGE CORN SHOW A Suc-
cess,—The first corn show ever held at
State College was pulled off last Friday
and notwithstanding the fact that the
weather was not very auspicious for such
a gathering it was a success in every way.
Two special trains of four coaches each,
one from Sunbury and one from Hunt-
ingdon by way of Tyrone, carried be-
tween three and four hundred farmers to
the College, not counting Centre county
farmers who went there on local trains
or drove in vehicles.
Interesting addresses were made in the
morning and afternoon on the different
questions in connection with the success
ful growing of corn, such as the selec-
tion of seed, proper planting and cultiva-
tion, the right kind of fertilizer to use
on certain soils, etc. The exhibit of corn
was large and of a very high standard,
which is not to be wondered at when
Pennsylvania ranks among the foremost
States in the quality of her corn. The
two specials bearing the farmers home
left about six o'clock, one from the Col-
lege and the other Lemont.
THAT BiG REAL ESTATE DEAL CLOSED.
—Six weeks ago the WATCHMAN an-
nounced the fact that the Leathers Bros.,
of Howard, had a deal on for the pur-
chase of the Dr. Hayes property along
the state road north of Bellefonte. On
Tuesday the deal was closed and the pa-
pers signed, sealed and delivered. The
property includes twenty-six acres and
fifty-five perches of land and exception-
ally fine buildings. The purchase price is
given as $19,000.
The deal, it is claimed, has been made
in the interest of the Jennings Bros.
large stockmen, of Buffalo, N. Y., who
propose using it as an exhibition stock
farm and also take advantage of the close
proximity of the Centre county fair
grounds to train horses for both track
and road purposes.

——Beginning March 8th the General |
Film company will release four good fea-
ture films every week and Mr. Brown has |
arranged to have all or the best of |
them at the Scenic. He believes that
there is nothing too good in the moving
picture line for the people of Bellefonte
and he means to give the best it is possi- |
ble to secure. The Scenic has long had
a reputation for showing the best pro-
gram of pictures of any moving picture
show in this part of the State, and always
for the small price of five cents.
——The parcel post has so increased
the business and work at the Bellefonte
postoffice that the old force of clerks and
carriers are unable to handle it. In ad-
dition to a regular parcel post package
carrier Fred Montgomery went to work
on Monday morning as an additional
clerk, having resigned his’ position as so-
licitor for the Bell Telephone company of
Pennsylvania. Another regular carrier
is an addition that is likely to be made
in the near future. In fact a trial trip
was made last Saturday but the town
has not yet been properly routed to put
the man on permanently, but it is the
expectation to have this done in the near
future. With an extra clerk and one
more carrier the mails can be handled
more quickly in the postoffice and deliv-
ered within a reasonable time.
——No new cases of smallpox devel:
oped during the past week and with
warmer weather near at hand it is the
general belief that the disease has been
overcome. One quarantine in Bellefonte
was lifted this week, that from the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Irvin, which was
taken down on Monday. Mr. Irvin had
probably the worst case of the disease of
anyone, but there are very few pit-marks
on him to show for it. Several additional
quarantines in Spring township were
lifted this week and by the end of next
week, if no new cases appear, every
quarantine will be raised with the ex-
ception of two or three. This is the con-
dition now existing in Bellefonte and no
person has the slightest cause to feel
afraid to come to Bellefonte at any time.
You will be just as safe here as vou are
in your own home, so far as catching the
smallpox is concerned.
——One of President Taft’s last acts on
Tuesday was to sign the omnibus ap-
propriation bill for public buildings and
among the towns that will profit thereby
are Lock Haven and Sunbury. A bill
was also passed by Congress providing
that Sunbury be made the seat of the
United States court for the middle Penn.
sylvania district, instead of Scranton, and
the new public building at that place will
be designed for that purpose as well as
for a postoffice. This bill also appro-
priates $75,000 for the erection of a new
public building at State College and
though it was feared by some that it was
one item that might be cut out, the anxi-
ety of the College people was relieved on
Wednesday when postmaster Phil D.,
Foster received a telegram from Con-
gressman Patton stating that the bill
went through in its entirety and State
College will get a public building.
——During the past few weeks the
WATCHMAN has published various items
regarding the effort being made to
organize a forest fire protective associa-
tion for northwestern Centre county and
the probable benefit of such an organiza-
tion to theland owners of that section.
J. A. Hoffman, who is at the head of the
movement, states that he now has a list
of signers to the membership roll repre-
senting over one hundred thousand acres
of timber land. In addition to this list
of signers, who are owners of the land,
quite a number of others who are in-
terested in the preservation of the young
timber have signified their willingness to
do what they can in effecting the organi-
zation and putting it upon a stable basis.
Though no date has yet been named it is
likely a meeting will be held in the near
future for the purpose of electing officers,
etc, and adopting by-laws and a con-
stitution. At present considerable in-
terest is centered in what the Legislature
providing for an appropriation for the
work of protecting forests from fire.
ed here.
The officers elected for the new Cen-
tre County Window Glass company are:
President, Philip F. Garbrick; vice presi-
dent, J. W. Strunk; secretary, William A.
| Beezer; treasurer, C. C. Rote. Harry W.
Davis, af Delaware, in which State the
new company was chartered, has been
named as a member of the board of di-
rectors and Col. W. Fred Reynolds and
F. H. Thomas have been asked to accept
membership on the board but have not
yet signified their willingness to accept,
though they have not declined to do so.
The above officers of the company are
well known in Bellefonte, and all expe-
rienced glass workers. They are natur-
ally much interested in having the plant
built, not only for their own personal in-
terest but because they believe it will be
a good industry for the town. That is
one great reason why they would like to
see as much stock as possible in the new
company taken in Bellefonte.

Lock HAVEN JUNK DEALER IN TROU-
BLE.—M. Janet is a Lock Haven junk
dealer who plies his trade through Bald
Eagle and Nittany valleys and an expe-
rience he had on a trip up Bald Eagle
some time ago cost him rather dear-
ly. He visited the Edward Baudis home
in Bush Hollow, and Mrs. Baudis, who
was alone, charged him with an attempt-
ed criminal assault. She came to Belle
fonte on Monday and swore out a war-
rant for Janet's arrest before justice of
the peace W. H. Musser, charging the
man with making proposals he had no
right to make and chasing her through
the house until she managed to secure a
revolver, when she drove him away at
the point of the gun, although it wasn't
loaded. Janet was arrested in Lock Hav-
en on Tuesday and brought to Belle-
fonte. Wednesday morning was set for
a hearing before "Squire Musser but be-
fore much testimony was heard friends
of the junk dealer appeared and persuad-
ed the woman to settle the case, which
she did upon the payment of twenty-five
doliars. The costs in the case were
twenty dollars so that the Bush Hollow
trip netted the junkman forty-five dol-
lars on the wrong side.
