T0 BE FULLY ORGANIZED IN TYRONE.—
A meeting of the land owners of north-
western Centre county and all others in-
terested will be held in the auditorium at |
Tyrone at two o'clock on Wednesday aft- |
ernoon of next week, March 19th, for the |
purpose of completing the organization |
of the forest fire protective association |
which has heen agitated for some Hime
past. i
The association will be called the |
Pennsylvania Forest Fire Protective asso-
ciation and it will be made the central or- |
ganization for the State. At this meet |
ing officers and a board of directors will
be elected, constitution and by-laws
adopted and full information given re-
garding the work of the association. It
is also expected that at that time definite
announcement can be made of what aid
can be expected from the State. The
list of land owners who have already
signed the membership roll is quite large,
representing ownership of over one hun-
dred thousand acres of timber land in
northwestern Centre county alone, but it
is the desire of those interested to have
every land owner interested by represen-
tation on the roll of membership.
If timber land owners would stop to
figure out the present value of their land
as it is today; the awful destruction that
would be caused by fire and what it
would cost for reforestation they would
probably be more interested in protect-
ing what they now possess. Forinstance:
A man who has studied forestry, and who
has been all over northwestern Centre
county, estimates the value of the tim-
ber thereon at twenty-four million dol-
lars. It increases in value about three
per cent. a year so it is an easy matter
to figure out the rate of increase, and al-
so the great monetary loss if even a part
of it should be destroyed by fire.
The initial cost of reforesting any sec-
tion of mountain land ranges from ten
to fifteen dollars per acre and the inter-
est on such an investment would amount
to a good sum by the time the timber
would reach a marketable value. So
that it is far better and more economical
to protect and preserve the young tim-
ber now on the ground, and that is the
purpose of this proposed association. ‘If
you are a land owner in Centre or ad-
joining counties you ought to attend the
meeting next week for your own good.

PHILIPSBURG LICENSES GRANTED.—On
Friday afternoon Judge Ellis L. Orvis
handed down his decision on the Philips-
burg licenses, granting eight retail, three
wholesale and the Philipsburg brewery,
refusing one, that of William H. Hindle
of the Central hotel. The application of
Isaac Shawver, for the hotel at Millheim,
is still being held under advisement. The
court filed a decree in which he reviewed
the entire situation of the license question
in Philipsburg, stating that for eight con-
secutive years he had heard and granted
these same licenses without a word of
complaint or single remonstrance, then
suddenly petitions and remonstrances
were presented against each and every
one of them. And yet when given a hear-
ing in open court the remonstrants failed
to produce any evidence to justify the
court in refusing said licenses. He further
stated that “Legal rights and property val-
ues must be disposed of in accordance
with the law as it is now constituted, nor
can we allow ourselves to destroy the
property values and deny the citizen his
legal rights except upon evidence proper-
ly submitted.” The court further called
attention to the fact that he was not sat-
isfied with the past management of the
Potter house and that there will have to
be a marked improvement in the man-
agement as well as the physical condi-
tion of the hotel if the owner expects to
receive a license in the future.

Bic FARM House BURNED.—The large
house on the old Tibbens farm, on the
Jacksonville road east of Bellefonte, now
owned by Dr. J. M. Brockerhoff, was de-
stroyed by fire last Saturday night. The
flames were discovered about midnight
and by the time assistance arrived had
gained such headway that it was impossi-
ble to save the house proper. The out
kitchen and several other out buildings
were saved. The house was occupied by
George Tibbens and famiiy and they suc-
ceeded with the help of neighbors in sav-
ing part of their household effects. The
fire evidently originated from a defective
flue and probably had been smouldering
for several hours before breaking out.
The house was worth about $2,500 and
was insured for only $1,000 by Dr. Brock-
erhoff. Mr. Tibbens had his household
goods insured for about half their value.
The house will be rebuilt at once and in
the meantime the Tibbens family is occu.
pying the out kitchen and shifting along
as well as possible.

withstanding the unusually stormy night,
about one hundred and fifty of the mem-

~——A five mile line of railroad, to be
known as the Moshannon Central rail-
road, is to be built from Philipsburg along
Cold stream to the headwaters of Forge
run, to tap the coal and fire clay lands of
Sharer, Prentiss and others. Charles H.
Rowland is the promoter of the move-
ment and a charter has already been ap-
plied for. It is expected that the opening
up of that section will mean a big boom
for Philipsburg.
——A line of candies, cakes and creams,
all specialties for the Easter trade are on
sale now at Ceaders. The candies in-
clude the leading makes of the country
such as Maron chocolates, special at 49
cents per pound; Huylers, Remers and
Appollo chocolate. Strawberry ice cream,
made from the fresh fruit, and the hot
cross buns, which bring with them good
luck, if eaten on Good Friday. All should
be included in the order which Ceaders
ask you to send as soon as possible.
——In a rear end collision on the Bald
Eagle Valley railroad, near Martha, on
Monday evening, the caboose was de-
molished and four cars wrecked. One
of the brakemen was sitting in the top of
the caboose and realizing that a collision
was inevitable crawled out upon the roof
and jumped to the ground. He escaped
uninjured while otherwise he would prob-
ably have been killed. A freight wreck
occurred near Milesburg last Saturday
evening in which the engineer and fire-
man were both slightly injured.

~—The study class wil meet on Mon-
day evening, March 17th,at 8 o'clock. The
subject for discussion, led by Mrs. Harry
Keller, is “The Constitution of the United
States.” The subdivisions are “The Sen.
ate and House of Representatives;” “The
President;” “The Judiciary;” “The State
Records;” “Amendments to the Consti-
tution;” “Public Debt;” “Ratification of
Constitution.” As this is a question of
considerable importance today, no one
can afford to be absent from this meet-
ing, where much information will be ex-
changed. Everybody is most cordiall
invited to be present. :
——‘Uncle Tom's Cabin” is one of the
oldest plays on the road today and yet it
continues to draw large houses at every
appearance. It will beat Garman’s op-
era house, Bellefonte, tonight (March
14th) and the fact that Leon Washburn’s
Stetson's company is the one which will
give the play is evidence that it will be
presented all right. Two Marks’ two
lawyers, two Topseys, real bloodhounds
and a very realistic cotton-picking scene.
Watch for the big street parade at noon.
Prices, 25, 35 and 50 cents. This will be
the only opportunity you will have of
seeing “Uncle Tom” this season.
——The talking moving picture ma-
chine invented by Thomas A. Edison is
proclaimed one of the marvels of the age,
and the day will probably come when
it will be in universal use. In the
meantime the Scenic continues showing a
very excellent program of motion pic-
tures every evening. Manager T. Clayton
Brown has arranged for the complete
series of feature films, four specials a
week, and these will be shown as soon
as possible after release. The “Mutt and
Jeff” series in connection with the Pathe
weekly Tuesday evenings are attracting
considerable attention and are quite in-
teresting.
——The large barn on the farm occu’
pied by Ellery Spotts. about two miles
back of Unionville, toward Bush Hollow,
was totally destroyed by fire early Wed.
nesday morning. The fire was caused
by the explosion of a lantern which the
men were using in tending the stock. All
the stock was gotten out safely but the
building and its contents of grain, hay,
harness, implements, etc, was totally
destroyed, as well as the large silo, which
was located close to the barn. The loss
could not be learned but it will be ap-
proximately three thousand dollars, on
which Mr. Spotts had some insurance.
The barn will be rebuilt as soon as pos-
sible. a
——Parents living on Linn and Curtin
streets are up against a problem of child
government that is troubling them not a
little. The Linn street boys and the Cur-
tin street lads are implacable foes—in a
juvenile way—and there being no snow
balls with which to fight their pitched
battles, they have resorted to the use of
stones. Everybody knows that a stone is
not a harmless missile, by any means,
and it has only been a short time ago
that a Lamb street boy, who was an in-
nocent bystander at one of these battles,
was hit on the head and badly cut. For-
tunately the serious casualties have so
far been very few, but the great danger
attached to such sport, if sport it canbe

through part of Huntingdon county into |
Centre county through Halfmoon town-
ship by way of Stormstown; through

CENTRE COUNTY GAME PRESERVE.—
Somewhere in the wilds of Centre coun-
ty C. K. Sober, of Lewisburg; W. B. Mc
Caleb, of Harrisburg; John M. Philips, of
Pittsburgh, three members of the State
Game Commission, and Dr. Joseph Kalb- |
fus, the state game commissioner, are
this week roaming around in an endeav-
or to pick out a new game preserve. The
State now owns and controls eighty
thousand acres of mountain land in Cen-
tre county, some of it on the Alleghenies
and some of it in the Seven mountains.
The establishing of a new preserve has
been under consideration for several
years and it was only last week when
the State Game Commission decided to
locate it in Centre county. This new
forest sanctuary will, like the five others
already established, have an area of
three thousand acres and will be made a
breeding place of all animals native to
the State.
The prime reason for the Centre coun-
ty preserve at this time is the desire of
the commissioners to go further with elk
propagation. Two herds of twenty-five
animals each have been planted in the
Clinton and, Clearfield preserves, but the
commissioners want to locate another and
perhaps a larger one in Centre county,
which is peculiarly adapted to the needs
of elk. There is lots of waste land over
which the animals can range in this coun-
ty and this will furnish fine hunting
grounds.
More attention will also be paid to the
white-tailed deer of this section.
ONLY Two SMALLPOX PATIENTS IN
QUARANTINE. ~—By the time this issue of
the WATCHMAN reaches its readers the
smallpox situation in and around Belle-
fonte will have cleared up to that extent
that but two patients remain in quaran-
tine. These are John Keeler, of Logan
street, and Scott Lambert, janitor at the
Y. M. C. A, who contracted the disease
last week and was placed under quaran-
tine in the association building on Satur-
day morning. How he became infected
is not definitely known, though it ie the
belief that it was through a lax observ-
ance of quarantine regulations at a home
in which the disease existed. The asso-
ciation building was thoroughly fumigat-
ed and no other cases have developed so
far among those who frequented the build-
ing. With the strict regulations now be-
ing observed there is hardly any danger |
of any further spread of the disease.

Two REAL ESTATE DEALS.—Two real
estate deals of some importance were
made in Bellefonte the past week. The
first was the purchase of the Charles
McCafferty residence on north Spring
street, now occupied by Mrs. Rachael
Harris, by Donald S. Potter, who will
make that his future residence. The price
given is $3500.
The other deal was the purchase of the
Rhoads coal yard by Hon. Hon. A. G.
Morris for his son Aleck. The price
paid for the latter was $8,500 and the new
owner took possession on Monday. D.
Wagner Geiss will continue as book-keep-
