BERTSCHY—SAYLOR.—Almost a sensa-
tion was created in Bellefonte the past
week when it became known that Miss
Helen Saylor, youngest daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Peter Saylor, had eloped with
Elmer E. Bertschy, a student of the Belle-
fonte Academy. The facts are as fol- |
lows: Last Friday morning Miss Saylor
made arrangements to go on the special
train to State College to attend the inter-
scholastic track and field meet, and
Bertschy also arranged to go. Instead
of doing so, however, the two young peo-
ple boarded the 9.17 train west on the
Bald Eagle with Ohio as their desti-
nation. Before going, however, Bertschy
gave another Academy student a letter
to deliver to Mrs. Saylor. The latter
forgot the letter until almost evening and

ing. The ceremony took place at the

ESCAPED PRISONER TO BE TRIED HERE.
—On Wednesday, April 9th, William Ho-
gan, a “trusty” at the new penitentiary
in Benner township, very unconcernedly
walked off the premises, came to Belle-
fonte, got a few drinks, then walked to
Milesburg where he bought a ticket and
took the train for Vail station. From
there he walked to Tyrone and stayed
around the town until Thursday after-
noon when he was arrested by a Tyrone
officer and the next day taken out to
Pittsburgh to serve out the balance of
his sentence, having been convicted in
Venango county for aggravated assault
and battery.
Hogan's sentence expired on Tuesday
and he was immediately rearrested upon
a warrant and commitment issued by
justice of the peace W. H. Musser last
| Saturday to John Eagan, parole officer of
the western penitentiary, charging him
with breaking out and escaping from the
western penitentiary, and the latter gen-
tleman brought him to Bellefonte on
Tuesday evening and lodged him in the
Centre county jail.
Wednesday morning Hogan was given
a hearing before "Squire Musser and he
acted lawyer in his own defense. After!
it was shown that he had escaped from
the penitentiary and been captured in
Tyrone Hogan asked to have the com-
mitment read to him. In it he was
charged with “breaking out and escap-
ing” from the penitentiary, and Hogan |
claimed that the commitment was not
legal because incorrect, stating that he
had not “broken out” of any place. He
also said that he did not run away but
simply walked off, and his main object
was to get his pension check cashed.
When he came to Bellefonte and got a
few drinks he naturally thirsted for, a
little more freedom and went to Tyrone.
But two days of the gay life was enough
for him and Hogan maintained that he
was hunting for the highway back to
sciatica.

St. Catherine's, the parish church of
Hatcham, in the southeast of London,
was destroyed by fire, and the outrage
is placed by the police to the account
of the militant suffragettes.
The edifice was well alight before
the fire was discovered, and the roof
crashed in soon after the arrival of
the firemen. An attempt to blow up
the Grand hotel with a bomb was
frustrated by a policeman.
The pastor of the church saw three
women in the building shortly before
the fire broke out. He assumed they
were worshippers, as the church was
kept open for private prayer through-
out the day. A number of hassocks
were found saturated with oil.
