cently accepted the agency, and it is pos-
sible this number will be considerably

~The six week's summer school for
teachers at The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege will come to an end today and most

——An Italian working at the the lime-
stone quarries at Salona stole a bicycle
on Saturday and started for Lock Haven.
Fearing arrest he hid the wheel and
walked into town, but was nabbed by

made a thrust at his guard with a stiletto

charges than stealing a bicycle,
-——Miss Rebecca Jacobs, who ata
meeting of the school board in June was
elected teacher of the sixth grade, has

has been given an increase in salary to
teach at Mifflintown, where she was last

been promoted to the sixth grade and
Miss Majorie McGinley has been elected
to teach the grade vacated by Miss Mc-
Clure's promotion. There is still a va.
cancy in the chair of history in the High
school, caused by the non-acceptance of
the man elected, but the board has
another good instructor in view.

automobile are achieving a unique repu-
tation in this vicinity. The other day in
coming home from his state road work
down Nittany valley he lost a rear tire
but did not know it until he had almost
reached home. On Wednesday he was
on the road to Bellefonte and just this
side of Hublersburg he lost the left rear
wheel and when he got his car stopped
the wheel was found on the opposite
side of the road about two hundred feet
ahead in a field. Mr. Hurley got the
machine to the side of the road and came
home in another machine that happened
along at the opportune moment.

A. A. DaLe Esq, INJURES LEG.—Be-
tween nine and ten o'clock on Tuesday
evening A. A. Dale Esq., and his nephew,
Arthur Dale, took a walk up east Linn
street. Returning A. A. Dale stepped on
a little black dog lying on the pavement
in front of the residence of Hon. A. G.
Morris. The dog jumped and yelped, |
and Mr. Dale, being somewhat frighten-
ed at the unexpected occurrence, also
jumped then stumbled over the dog and
fell, breaking his left knee cap on the |
stone pavement. He was taken to his
room at Mrs. Tanner's where he spent
the night and Wednesday morning was
taken to the Bellefonte hospital. The |
injury is quite a serious one and will |
likely lay Mr. Dale up for a month or |
six weeks. Itis a most unfortunate ac-
cident and we hope may not prove as
serious as it now appears Mr. Dale
was just planning for a week's vacation
which he was going to spend camping
along the Bald Eagle and fishing, and
his accident will entirely do away with
his anticipated outing.
SILVER AND LEAD.—On the Charles
Schad property on Muncy mountain is a
vein of quartz rock which, if it comes up
to Mr. Schad's expectations, may prove
a big boom for Bellefonte or Milesburg,
or both. The vein is at least two hun-
dred feet wide and so far as known ex-
tends from the top of the mountain
down to water level. Mr. Schad has had
several analysis made of samples of the
quartz and he avers that each one shows
a percentage of silver and of lead rich
enough to pay big money. Of course it
will require capital to develop it, as a
stamp mill and refinery would have to
be erected. If the rock really proves to
be rich silver bearing quartz geologists
will have to reconstruct their formations
for this section of the State, as none of
the more precious minerals have ever
been to exist in the mountains
of Central Pennsylvania.

——On Thursday night of last week
Henry Davis, son of J. McClellan Davis,
and a party of friends were down Nit
tany valley on an automobile trip. Re-
turning home shortly after eleven o'clock
the car skidded off the road this side of
Zion and upset, Davis had one rib brok-
en and a number of body bruises, and
miraculous as it may seem, he was the
only one of the party hurt. A nearby
farmer was routed out of bed and
brought the party home. The only dam:
ages to the machine were badly bent
fenders, a broken door and wind shield.

~The .dead body of Clara Lovett,
the seventeen year old daughter of Mr.
and Mrs John Lovett, of Lock Haven,
was found floating in the Susquehanna
river near that place on Sunday morn-
ing. The girl left home on Friday morn-
ing ostensibly to go to a store to pur-
chase lace. She did not return home
that day or night and Saturday morning
she was seen by several persons walking
along the river. That was the last seen
of her until the finding of her dead body.
The fact that her mesh bag and purse
were found on the river bank is taken as
evidence that she deliberately committed
suicide, but the mystery of why she did
so is still unsolved.
——On Monday afternoon, after quit-
ting work at the shirt factory, Misses
Carrie Hazel, Marie Haupt and Jeanette
Miller climbed into one of the Lauder-
bach-Barber company's delivery wagons
to take a ride. Paul Mallory was driv-
ing but out on Phoenix avenue Miss
Miller took the iines. She didn't prove
a very expert driver as she drove up a
bank and believing that the wagon would
upset all three of the girls jumped.
Misses Miller and Haupt landed safely
but Miss Hazel fell and struck her leit
arm against a post, fracturing the bone
near the elbow. She also sustained sev-
eral bad bruises. She was taken into the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Young,
near where the accident happened, and a
physician reduced the fractured arm.
She has since been getting along as well
as can possibly be expected.
——On Saturday shortly after noon
Ellis Keller, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Keller, was at the Orvis house where
Mrs. Canfield was making preparations
to move. In the attic were found some
old blank cartridges and fuse and Ellis
attempted to explode one by attaching a
piece of fuse. The cartridge exploded
all right and considerable of its force
struck the boy in the face. Neither
Mr. nor Mrs, Keller were at home and
Ellis came down town to Dr. Hayes’
office where it took Miss Miler several
hours to pick the powder out of his face.
At first it was feared that his eyes were
badly injured but fortunately this is not
the case, neither is the flesh burned to
any extent, and when the powder marks
are removed he will be all fight again,
though enough wiser to attempt no
wonderful offer on page five.

Assistant chief clerk Wilson Isaac Flem-
ing, of Bellefonte, was selected as the
man to make the proclamation this year
and, accompanied by chief clerk George
D. Thorn, clerk James C. Deininger and
three policemen Mr. Fleming proceeded
to the rotunda of the capitol and how he
performed his duty is best told by a
writer in the Harrisburg Star-Independ-
ent as follows:
Standing at the head of the great mar-
ble stairway, Mr. Fleming, with the
7,655,111 ulation of Pennsylvania, ac-
cording to last census, as his audi-
ence, read the titles to the bills on which
action had been taken by the Governor
thirty days after the Legislature had ad-
journed. It was a most impressive
scene, one that meant much to many,
but Mr. Fleming was equal to the occa-
sion. With the statute of the late Sena-
tor Quay calmly regarding his actions,
he read the titles of the bills in a rich,
ig colorado maduro voice, the read-
ing being punctuated by frequent ap-
plause from Messrs. Thorn and Deining-
er and the three policemen, and when he
had finished, the assembled sextet gave
three cheers and the work was over. It
was an impressive ceremony, beautiful-
ly carried out.
——Ground was broken on Monday
for a large double house Dr. J. L. Seibert
will erect on his lot on Allegheny street
adjoining the residence of Mrs. Louisa
Harris. The building will be of brick
and have all modern improvements.
