NEW RECTOR FOR EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
—Rev. W. C. Charlton, of Shamokin, has
accepted a call to become rector of St.
John’s Episcopal church in this place to
succeed Rev. John Hewitt, resigned. He
will move his family, consisting of his
wife and four children, here this week
and will officiate at all the services on
Sunday. Rev. Charlton was in Bellefonte
several weeks ago and preached for the
congregation, and at the time created a
very favorable impression.
Women Glued to Seats In Theater.
The intenes heat caused an awk
ward situation at a theater in Potts
ville, Pa., where a thousand women
most of them in white dresses, at
tended an operatic performance.
When the play ended 200 of then
were glued to their seats, the intenst
heat having melted the varnish on the
chairs. Many were able to get awa)
only after ruining their dresses.
Some of the women and girls at
they walked home were made the ob
ject of much amusement. Some of th¢
victims regarded the matter as a joke
while others were very indignant.
Among those who suffered was the
wife of the manager of the theater
After tryinz various ways to remove
the varnish she finally succeeded witt
plain soap and water. This methoc
has been communicated among the
victims, and many of them graspec
the suggestion and triel the sam
method.
The intense heat proved fatal tc
former School Director Krieg. Krieg
received a sunstroke on Monday, but
feeling better, got up and was imme
diately prostrated again, dying soor
afterward.
Student Is Stabbed.
In a class fight between the junior:
and seniors of the Nanticoke, Pa.
high school, Edward Kitlowski, wh
was captured by the juniors and tiec
to a flag pole, was accidentally stab
bed by Mrs. Josephine Parney, whe
rushed to his assistance with the hop¢
of cutting the ropes that bound him.
Kitlowski was among the seniors
who tried to raise their colors on the
pole. He was tied to the pole, and
later, when Mrs. Parney went to res-
cue him the juniors reappeared, and
while she tried to cut the ropes they
rushed on her and Kitlowski was seri-
ously stabbed in the right arm and
breast.
The police were called out to quiet
the students and most of them fled.
McCarrick Boy's Body In River.
The long search for Warren McCar-
rick, seven years old, son of Mr. and
Mrs. James McCarrick, of Philadel
phia, who disappeared from his home
on March 12, was ended on Tuesday.
Edward McCarrick, a police ser-
geant, identified the body of a boy
taken from the Delaware river as that
of his nephew.
The body had been in the river so
long that identification could not be
established from the features. The
only things by which the police could
make a positive identification were
the underwear, stockings and a gar-
ter.
Sergeant McCarrick, who assisted
for two months in the search for his
nephew, examined the clothing in the
morgue for a half hour before he
could be certain. Warren’s father was
not permitted to see the body.
Recovery of the body so far from
the McCarrick home has given the
detectives a mystery to solve. They
do not know whether the boy was
drowned accidentally, perhaps by fall-
ing down an open sewer, or was
thrown into the water.
U. S. Judge Impeached.
Impeachment proceedings against |
Judge Alston G. Dayton, of the north-
ern district of West Virginia, charging
“high crimes and misdemeanors,” |
were started in the house by Repre-|
sentative M. M. Ncely, of West Vir-
ginia. Neely’s charges were referred
to the judiciary committee. |
|
{
It is alleged that Judge Dayton has
shown marked favoritism to certain |
corporations having litigation in his
court; that he conspired to bring!
about the removal of Judge John G.
Jackson that he, Dayton, might suc-
ceed him; that he has put on grand
and petit juries persons favorable to
corporations having litigation in his
court, and that he assisted his son, Ar-,
thur Dayton, an attorney, in preparing
cases tried before him.
Thomas Dolan Dies In 80th Year.
Thomas Dolan, for many years the
president of the United Gas Improve-|
ment company prior to 1912, and one
of the wealthiest men in Philadelphia, |
died at his home in Torresdale, a su-|
burb of Philadelphia.
Mr. Dolan was approaching his’
eightieth birthday. His fortune has!
been estimated at between $20,000,000
and $35,000,000. |
With the financier at the time were
Mrs. Dolan, his widow, and his three |
sons, Thomas, Jr., Yale, and Clarence, |
with the wives of the two former,
sons.
Want Wilson to Stump.
The possibility of President Wilson
taking the stump for Democratic nom-
ifnees in the fall congressional and
senatorial elections was discussed
with him by Representative Connolly,
of lowa, the Democratic nominee for
the senate. .
The president told Mr. Connolly he
had not decided whether to make any
speeches. Representative A. Mitchell
Palmer, Democratic nominee for sen-
ator in Pennsylvania, also has made
efforts to have the president speak in
his state.

Gen. Villa Seizes
Control in North.
Denies Break With Chief, But It Is
Said He Resigned and Is Preparing
to Turn Army Against Leader.
Acting in the name of Generai
Francisco Villa, Constitutionalist army
detachments seized the custom house,
telegraph office, treasury department
and information bureau in Juarez, just
acros sthe Rio Grande from El Paso,
Tex.
The Carranza appointees who had
charge of these offices were arrested.
Similar action, it is reported, was tak-
en at Chihuahua and Torrein, and
probably other important points in the
porthern military zone.
It was reported with circumstantial
detail that gained credence that Villa
had resigned as commander-in-chief of
the north and that the sudden action
was a coup d'etat sprung by Villa to
signalize the long-expected break be-
tween him and Carranza. A new revo-
lution, headed by Villa, is expected to
be declared.
Despite these dramatic and menac-
ing happenings, General Villa, through
his agents, issued a general denial of
reports that there had been a split
between him and General Venustiano
Carranza, “first chief” of the Constitu-
tionalists. He said the arrest of the
Carranza officials at Juarez had been
the result of a misunderstandng of
orders on the part of Colonel Ornelas,
in charge of the Juarez garrison.
It was learned, however, that from
twenty to thirty employes of the
Juarez offices were sent on a special
train to Chihuahua City, the state
capital, thence to be transported .o
Torreon, where Villa remained. These
men, Carranza adherents, were arrest
ed by Colonel Ornelas in his raids.
Partisans of Carranza and Villa at
El Paso discussed hotly the future of
the Constitutionalist movement. The
question of the Niagara Falls confer:
ence played an important par’ in the
argument, especially as regards the
naming of provisional president.
Some of the Villa supporters even
declared that General Felipe Angeles,
secretary of war in Carranza’s cabi-
net, had been selected by Villa for
provisional president in place of Car
ranza, as some partisan publications
had suggested.
Angeles, a former Federal general,
has been commanding Villa's artillery
since the battle of Torreon, and Tues:
day departed for the front above Za-
catecas, according to official notice.
It was asserted without qualification
that General Villa had resigned as
commander of the northern military
zone and that it was final. To Villa's
message offering his resignation, Car-
ranza replied asking who ‘would suc:
ceed him.
Following this, Villa’s various mili-
tary chiefs held a conference and sent
a “round robin” to Carranza, declar-
ing they would accept none other than
Villa as a leadér. The action in seizing
the civil offices and arresting the Car-
ranza adherents, it is said, came as
a result.

MAY CHANGE U. S. POLICY
Expected to Result From Unsatisfac
tory Meeting With Carranga Men.
On word from the Washington gov
ernment depends the next move in
the mediation proceedings at Niagara
Falls, Ont.
Justice Lamar and Frederick W.
Lehmann telegraphed a 2000-word re
port of their conference at Buffalo
with Rafael Zubaran and Luis Caba
rera, authorized representatives of
General Carranza.
The feeling is general that the Unit:
ed States may make a distinct change
of policy as a resutl of the uncompro
mising attitude of Zubaran and Cab
rera, dispatches telling of friction be
tween General Carranza and Villa, re:
ports of a rupture in Sonoro between
Governor Maytorena and General
Obregon and news of Constitutionalist
' reverses both on land and sea.
Emilio Rabasa, head of the Huerta
delegation, said that he and his asso
ciates would do everything in their
| power to prevent a break in negotia
tions. His suggestion was that a neu
tral be proposed for the provisional
presidency and that the United States
accord recognition to him. Rabasa de
clared that a person of capacity and
honesty would be chosen and that as
soon as the United States accorded
the new president recognition, funds |
and arms could be obtained so that ft
would be conceded that there were
two factions that must be considered.
Although generally termed unsatis
factory, it is learned that the Ameri
can delegates in their conference with
the Constitutionalists received the
‘suggestion of one name which they
have some hope may prove acceptable
| to the Huerta delegates.
The Constitutionalists explained tc
the Americans in detail and with em
phasis that there could be no com:
promise in any shape or form with
General Huerta or any of his party;
that a prominent Constitutionalisi
alone would be accepted by them for
the presidency, and that the military
trinmph of the revolution was inevit
able.
Dressed For Gallows; Gets Respite.
Dressed and waiting to be taken to
the gallows on which he was to be
hanged for the murder of his wife,
Silas Jones was notified by the war
den of the Moundsville penitentiary,
near Wheeling, W. Va. that Gover
nor Hatfield had telephoned a respite
of thirty days. ‘Leading citizens of
Huntington, W. Va., where Jones re.
sided, interceded in his behalf, declar-
ing that new evidence had been dis
covered.
Dynamite Diet Fatal to Cow.
Eating several sticks of dynamite;
did not agree with a cow on the farm
of George Kilpatrick, at Kerr's Creek.
near Middletown, N. Y., and the ani |
mal is dead.
Several other cows which tasted of |
the explosive were only slightly af
fected. The dynamite had been distrib :
uted in the pasture for use in blowing |
out holes for telephone poles.
The
yielded to its effects, gradually suffer
ing until death.
While the owner of the cow thinks |
the company which placed the dyna: |
mite in the pasture should pay for the j
cow, the company contends that the
animal's death was not due directly!
to the dynamite.
Eugenics Bar Marriage.
Register of Wills Newman, of Read
ing, Pa. has refused a marriage li
cense to Herbert Good and Miss Leona
Helman, both .of that city, on the
ground that the would-be bridegroom
did not measure up to the require
ments of the new eugenic marriage
law in some respects.
Miss Helman then had Good arrest:
ed on a misdemeanor charge. He was
taken to jail, though willing to marry
the prosecutrix. The problem was
finally submitted to Judge Bushong,
who directed that the license be re:
fused on the ground that the young
man is not mentally strong.
First Drink In Eight Years; Dies.
For eight vears a great horned owl, |
which was the pet of Mrs. Frank W.|
Flood, of Vineland, N. J., never had a’
drink. It was given water Saturday
night, as its mistress felt sorry for it
in the extreme hot weather. The ow!
immediately went into a violent con:
vulsion and sank its long talons intc
the hand of Mrs. Flood. In this man
ner death came to the bird, and its
death clutch was so strong that Dr.
George Cunningham found {it neces
sary to cut the sharp talon out of the
wound. It had passed entirely througk
the hand.
Sun Digs For Dynamite.
A section of gutter and street or
Second avenue in Bethlehem, Pa., was
blown up as the result of an explosion
of peculiar origin. :
A year ago, when the street was be
inb permanently improved, workmen
nsed dynamite to blast away rocks
and a stick is supposed to have been
carel-ssly left behind when the dress
ing of amiesite was put on.
The hot rays of the sun penetrating
the paving are believed to have caused
the dynamite to explode.
Wilson ¢o Open Panama Canal.
President Wilson will leave Wash
ington on March 5, 1915, for Panams
to attend the formal opening ceremon
ies of the Panama canal at a date tc
be determined later; will pass through
the canal with the cabinet on the old
battleship Oregon and then proceed
on to San Francisco.
