BAD AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT.—On Wed-
nesday morning of last week an automo-
bile from Altoona containing four resi-
dents of that city collided with the train
on the crossing at the bridge south of
the Milesburg station as it was backing
down from Bellefonte on its way to
Lock Haven. The party included Henry
Doerr, a meat dealer; Mrs. Craig
Rhoades, Mrs. Alice Williams and Miss
Grace Kephart. They were on their
way to Howard and whoever was driving
the car was evidently going at a pretty
fair rate of speed, failing to either hear
or see the train until it backed onto the
the crossing rightin front of them. To
avoid a head-on collision with the train
the driver turned sharply to the left but
the step of one of the coaches caught
the right front wheel of the machine and :
hurled it into a deep ditch where it
turned turtle. Two of the occupants
were thrown out while the other two
were caught under the car.
The train was stopped and the crew
and others went to the rescue of the
t bilists. At first it was thought:
aio rr superintendent of the Bellefonte glass
they were critically injured and they
were put on the train and brought to
Bellefonte with the expectation of taking !
them to the hospital but when they
reached here they decided otherwise and
were taken to the office of Dr. Hayes
where their injuries were attended to.
Mr. Doerr had three fractured ribs and,
a badly contused side; Mrs. Williams
one fractured rib and a slight laceration;
Mrs. Rhoades severe scalp lacerations
and a sprained ankle, and Miss Kephart
slight lacerations and bruises. They
were all sent to their homes in Altoona
the same afternoon.
The automobile, which was a Crawford
car, was badly wrecked and will have to
be almost entirely rebuilt to make it
serviceable. It is now at the Beezer |
garage awaiting the disposition of the
owner.
RoBBED Express OFFICE.—). R. Huss,
of Tyrone, was arrested in this place on
the evening of the Fourth of July, by po-
liceman Harry Dukeman, for robbing the |
Adams Express office at Tyrone. Huss
with several other young men were in
the Express office on Thursday evening
when agent E. E. Rine went to supper,
Huss asked permission to write a letter
and Rine told him to go to the desk and
write it. He did so and then left the of- |
fice. When the agent returned and
opened the money drawer he found
$182.50 missing. Huss was suspected
and inquiry disclosed the fact that he’
had come to Bellefonte. The police here
were communicated with and policeman
Dukeman began a hunt for the man.
Late in the afternoon he was discovered .
among the crowd that came in from the |
ball game. The first place the young |
man made for was the Bush house bar
room and as he stepped out of the door |
Dukeman accosted him and took him to |
the Express office where he was charged
with the theft. He finally confessed and |
returned $162.50, having spent twenty
dollars of the money. He spent the night
in the Centre county jail and on Satur-
day was taken to Hollidaysburg by offi- |
cer Giles, of Tyrone. |
Buy Your SEASON TICKETS FOR THE |
BELLEFONTE CHAUTAUQUA Now. — The |
Chautauqua comes to Bellefonte on the |
17th of July.
On that date the Bellefonte committee |
has to turn over to them Fourteen Hun- |
dred (1,400) dollars, the price of Seven |
Hundred (700) Season tickets.
The gate receipts go to the Chautau.
qua Association, and do not help in ras
ing the guarantee which Thirty (30) peo- |
ple of Bellefonte have put up in order to
bring this week’s entertainment to the
town.
The ticket selling committee urges the
people who are expecting to attend The
Chautauqua to buy their Season Tickets
NOW, for two reasons.
1st—That the guarantors may meet
their financial obligation the day it falls
due. :
2nd—That the work of the ticket sell
ing committee may be lightened—work
which is always hard, and in the heat of
last week was doubly arduous.
NEWSPAPER PUBLICITY APPRECIATED.—
Through the generosity of the town
newspapers, the work and needs of the
Woman's Club were constantly kept be-
fore the public. Scarceiy a week passed
during the year without a contribution
from the Publicity committee.
For the cordial manner always accord-
ed the committee by the proprietors of
the papers and for so correctly publish-
ing the articles, the Publicity committee
desires to publicly express its sincere ap-
preciation and to add that because of
this willingness to assist in furthering
the work, the Club's efforts have been

MunsoN.— Though not unexpected the
death of Mr. L. T. Munson, at 11:10
o'clock on the morning of June 28th,
was deeply regretted by his many friends
and cast a gloom over Bellefonte where
he has been so well and favorably hnown
during the past thirty-seven years. Mr.
Munson’s illness dates back about fifteen
months when he was compelled to un-
dergo a severe surgical operation. Some
months later he developed cancer of the
liver and this disease was the direct
cause of his death.
Lorenzo T. Munson was a son of Mr.
and Mrs. Levi Munson and was born at
Clearfield Mills, Clearfield county, on
January 31st, 1848, hence at his death
was 65 years, 5 months and 7 days old.
His parents moved to Philipsburg and it
was in the public schools of that place
that Mr Munson secured his education.
When a young man he went to work for
the Philipsburg tannery and remained
there until his father, who was elected
sheriff of Centre county in the fall of
' 1875, came to Bellefonte the following
January to assume office and appointed
his son his deputy. He served in
that capacity during the following three
years and proved a most capable official.
During the strikes and riot of 1877 he
was called upon to make several import-
ant arrests and proved equal to the occa-
sion.
In the summer of 1878 he entered the
campaign for the nomination of sheriff
to succeed his father but was defeated
i and when he retired from the office of
deputy he went to work for the Valen-
tine Iron company in their store in the
. old Bush Arcade. He held the position
until about 1883 when he was chosen
‘works. He remained there a few years
then went to the Bellefonte nail works
they were
closed ¥down permanently in the early
nineties. When the Bellefonte Furnace
company was organized Mr. Munson was
made superintendent of that plant and
paymaster of the Central Railroad of
| Pennsylvania, positions he held for a
number of years. He spent one year
with the New Bickford Firebrick compa-
ny of Curwensville, as general sales
agent and about three and a half years
| ago was appointed station agent of the
Central Railroad of Pennsylvania in this
place, where he remained until actually
confined to the house with his last ill-
ness. |
Politically Mr. Munson was a Demo-
crat and always a faithful worker for his |
| party and its principles. He was a mem-
ber of the Episcopal church and of the
Philipsburg Lodge of Masons, having at-
tained high rank in that order. He was
of a somewhat retiring disposition and |
slow to form friendships, but a man pos-
sessed of a most genial nature and very
companionable to those who knew him
well. He was a man of commanding
stature and presence and was regarded
with universal respect wherever known.
In 1883 he was united in marriage to
Miss Sarah E. Gephart, daughter of the
late Hon. J. P. Gephart, who survives
with one sen, John G. Munson, of Parks-
ville, Tenn., who was with his father dur-
ing the last few days of his illness. He
also leaves two brothers and three sis-
ters, namely: Harry Munson, of Phil:
ipsburg; Charles, of Kane; Mrs. Spencer
Rhoads, of Iselin; Mrs. Julia Bolinger, of |
Wellsboro, and Mrs. William McClellan,
| of Bellefonte.
His funeral was held at ten o'clock on
Tuesday morning, July first. Rev. John
house and interment in the Gephart lot
in the Union cemetery was made in ac-
cordance with the beautiful ritual of the |
Masonic order, the Bellefonte Lodge at-
tending in a body.

DEATH OF MRS. GEORGE W. ATHERTON.
—Mrs. Atherton, widow of the late pres.
ident George W. Atherton, of The Penn-
sylvania State College, was called from
earth at one o'clock Tuesday morning,
July eighth. Her active life of thirty one
years in State College, her interest in
and sacrifices for the best things of both
college and town had endeared her to
all, young and old.
Fannie Washburn Atherton was born
at Plymouth, Massachusetts, May 28th,
1836. She attended the district school,
and later the Normal school at Bridge-
water, Massachusetts, in preparation for
teaching. For nine years the school
room claimed her energies, eight years
of which were in the schools of New
Haven, Connecticut. Here she met Geo.
W. Atherton, then a student at Yale
University. They were married in 1863.
Eight children blessed the union, only
three of whom are living: Charles M,
engaged in settlement work in New York
city; Harriet C., the wife of Albert F.
Buckhout, of South Hadley, Massachu-
setts; and Helen H., the wife of Profes-
sor Charles E. Govier, of State College.
The eldest son, Frank, who was rarely
gifted in music, died two years ago.
Mrs. Atherton early united with the
Congregational church, and wherever
she lived she was identified with relig-
ious work. She was not sectarian, but
deeply religious, and her hand was out- |
stretched to aid all Christian bodies. She
lived religion and religion lived in her
life. It shone upon her face, in a kindly
disposition, in the very hand outstretch-
ed in greeting. In work for others, in
village improvement, in social life, in
establishing home life and friendly rela-
tions in the college community, Mrs.
Atherton was a leader. She possessed
those qualities of home likeness, of spon-
taneous helpfulness, of kindly charity
which have been the crown and orna-
ment of her life.
Under Mrs. Atherton’s inspiration the
Woman's Club of State College was or-
ganized in 1893. For thirteen years she
was president of the Club, She was
active in its work, its very life and soul.
Her home was its favorite, and almost
constant meeting place. In 1906, she
was made honcrary president, an office
created for her, and although ill health
constrained her to less active work in
the Club, she was vitally interested to
the end.
The funeral services were held at four
o,clock on Thursday afternoon of July
10th, conducted by her pastor, the Rev-
erend Samuel Martin, assisted by the
college chaplain, the Reverend Robert R. |
H. Reed. :

AN ANNOUNCEMENT.
It is with great pleasure that I an-
nounce to the peopie of Bellefonte and
vicinity that I firmly believe God has
called me to be a fisherman of men—
St. Matt. 4-19, a witness for him —Isaiah
44-8—not with enticing words of man's
wisdom—I Cor. 2-4,—but allowing the
Holy Spirit to lead and teach me in all
things whatsoever I should say—St.
Matt. 10-20, Exodus 4-12—to the upbuild-
ing of God's Ki and the tearing
down of the devil's dens—Ephesians, 5-11.
I certainly have weighed all the ins and
outs in openly Hing this stand for God
and fully understand that all who would
serve God with a clean heart must suffer
tion, II Tim. 3-12, but God'sgrace
is sufficient—II Cor. 12-9—therefor you
will find my first sermon and also future
plans published in this paper of July 25
next.
Read it and learn whether it is sound
doctrine or chaff.

The experiment of holding the evening
service of the Presbyterian church on the
lawn proved successful and attractive;
notwithstanding the sudden brief storm
that shortened the service. The experi-
ment will be repeated Sunday night.
The Presbyterian church holds its reg-
ular quarterly communion next Sunday,
July 13th. Preparatory services Thurs-
day and Friday nights, at 7.30 p. m.
The churches of the town have agreed
to dispense with their afternoon and
evening service on Chautauqua Sunday,
July 20th, to give all people every chance
to attend the services in the tent.
The graduation sermon to the Sunday
school teacher’s—training class will be
preached in the United Brethren church
Sunday evening, July 13th, at 7.30 o'clock,
by Rev. Harper, of the First Umted
Brethren church of Altoona. The pub-
lic is cordially invited.
