Revolution against a gov- ernment recognized by the United States and all other civilized governments will not have as easy a road to run as that against one which was founded upon murder and maintained by fraud. ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS. STONED AUTOMOBILISTS.—On Sunday evening W. Harrison Walker Esq., and Harry E. Fenlon took a run down Nittany valley in the former’s car. They were returning about 845 o'clock and when at a point near the school house this side of Solomon Peck’s residence sonie boy or man threw a stone from the rear which passed diagonaily between Mr. Walker and Mr. Fenlon and crashed through the glass of the wind shield. Mr. Walker stopped his car as soon as possible and backed to where the stone was thrown but could not see any- one about or running away. Inquiry was made at a house nearby but all the chil- dren belonging there were in the house and the man had seen no stranger in that neighborhood. Throwing stones at automobilists is a very dangerous pas- time. Had the stone that was thrown Sunday evening been six inches to the left it would have hit Mr. Walker on.the head, might have knocked him out for a ‘few seconds causing him to lose control of his car and a bad accident might have been the result. Such stone throwers should be severely dealt with according to law. Ss FIRE AT COLEVILLE.—The large frame house on the old Humes farm at Cole- ville, now owned by the American Lime and Stone company, was totally destroy- ed by fire on Wednesday night. The house had been occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Angelo Zapeto and a number of other Italians and it is alleged the fire started from burning brush in the yard, the flames first communicating to an out kitchen and from there to the house. The inmates succeeded in saving most of their furniture. Several chickens in a coop close to the out kitchen were burn- ed and this fact with the destruction of a small part of her furniture caused Mrs. Zapeto to become frantic and twice she attempted to enter the house when it was entirely enveloped in flames. The woman screamed and tore at her hair and it took her husband and several others some time to even partially pacify her. The Italians had no insurance on the contents of the house and it is hard- ly probable the house was insured. The fire occurred between nine and ten o'clock and many Bellefonters went out in automobiles to see it. FIRE AT STATE COLLEGE.—About eight o'clock on Sunday morning fire broke out in the Melvin Sauers home at State College and owing to a mistake in the signals when sounding a fire alarm the fire company did not arrive on the scene as promptly as possible with the result that the house wasburned to the ground, and the adjoining house occupied by William Baird and family was partially destroyed. All the furniture in both houses was saved. Mr. Sauers carried $1,500 insurance but his loss in excess of that will be one thousand dollars. Mr. Baird's insurance of $2,000 entirely covers his loss. The fire originated from a de- fective flue, it is believed. FOR FEDERAL BUILDINGS.—On Friday of last week Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo sent to Congress an estimate of his department for new buildings and asked that the same be included in the general deficiency bill. Included in the list were the following: State College site and commencement, $15,685; Tyrone site, $24,000; Lock Haven site and com- mencement, $16,500, Hollidaysburg site and continuation, $12,500. ee temp ——The WATCHMAN enjoys the’ proud distinction of being the best and cleanest county paper published. | ! came within range of his unerring aim.

Cook were ‘present and stated that the lavatory sys- ‘tem at the brick school house had be- come so bad that the board would have to install a new system before the open- ing of school on August 31st, and asked that council extend the sewer on Bishop street from Ridge street east. There were some objections to doing so on ac- count of digging up the paved street but the matter was finally referred to the , Street committee for conference with the school board and council agreed to convene in special session whenever they were ready to make a report. The Street committee reported that a new trap and large screen had been placed at the entrance to the sewer near Dr. Seibert’s residence which would probably take care of all the surface water. !

WHAT HAS BECOME OF BELLEFONTE'’S CURB MARKET?—Well may the above question be asked, because so far this year there has been practically no curb market at all. In past years Bellefonte had a good curb market every Tuesday and Saturday, and sometimes Thursday. At this season of the year there would be anywhere from a dozen wagons upwards backed up to the curb in front of the court house and there have been market days when from thirty-five to forty wagons were there. These included truck farmers of all kinds and several butcher’s wagons, and it used to be possi- ble to buy anything from a pint of smear- | case to a sirloin steak. This year what i safe. The committee, however, called attention of council to the fact that it removing the boards in order to use the well as a beer cooler. The committee was informed that they had the power to call the police and have any such crowd removed to the real “cooler.” Mr. Harris called council’s attention to the sewer now being put down on Lamb street near the armory to take care of the surface water. The intention was to put down a fifteen inch sewer, but it is not thought large enough and the committee believes that a twenty inch concrete sewer would be better. The matter was referred to the committee with power to act.
