The defeat of W. E. Tobias, of Clear-
field, for Congress, and W. H. Patterson,
for State Senator, might have been aver-
ted had a little more work been done in
their behalf, but unfortunately they were
the victims of a political circumstance
over which they had no control and had
to sink with the rest of the crowd
Charles H. Rowland, of Philipsburg, who
was elected to Congress, is an upright,
honorable gentleman, and now that he is
elected, he will serve his constituents
to the best of his ability. Mr. Row-
land’s election gives Centre county the
first Congressman it has had in thirty
years, or since the late Andrew G. Curtin
served in 1884-86.
Dr. S. J. Miller, of Madera, who was
elected State Senator for Centre and
Clearfield county, is said to be an able,
straightforward man and will probably
represent the district in the upper house
at Harrisburg as good as any other Re-
publican could have done. Harry B.
Scott, of Philipsburg, the new Assembly-
man-elect is known to many people in
Centre county so that any comment from
us would be superfluous.
The detailed vote of Centre county
published in another column tells the
story of Tuesday’s election better than
we can do it.

Among the Democrats to lose their
seats, besides Donohue and Logue in

2 DEATH OF AN AGED LADY.—Mary A,
, wife of J. D. Long; of Spring Mills, died
| October 30th, 1914, and although she had
, been in delicate health for many years
: her passing away was very sudden and
, quite unexpected.
i She was a daughter of Philip and Julia
| Leitzell and was born in Gregg township
jon May 8th, 1839. Her entire life, ex-
- | cepting about one year, was spent in
| sight of her birthplace. She was one of
thirteen children, two of whom died in
infancy more than eighty years ago, the
rest of the children living to. the age of
| almost sixty years, and those who pre-
ceded her in death were Dr. John B., of
Dakota, Ill.; Samuel and Mrs. Margaret
R. Hanna, of Spring Mills, and Dr.
Charles B., of Derry, Pa. She is surviv-
ed by the following brothers and sisters:
James N., of Benton, Wis:; Percival J.,
Philip P., of Millheim;
Mrs. Sarah Guise and Mrs. Jane E. Peal-
er, of Spring Mills, and Mrs. Susan E.
Fichthorn, of Manorville, Pa. She is
also survived by her husband and the
following children: Charles P., of Spring
Mills; Harry G., ot Newark, Ohio; Phil-
ip P., of Uniontown; Frank A., of Cam-
bridge, Ohio, and Miss: Ida, at home.
Mrs. Susan E. Roberts, a daughter, died
Fifteen grand-
AMMERMAN.—Miss Nancy J. Ammer-
man died at the Bellefonte hospital on
Friday of last week of a degenerated
heart. She had been ill only a few days
ty-four hours previous to her death. She
was the eldest daughter of Albert and
Carlotto Rettew Ammerman and was
born in a house on Spring street where
the Mrs. James Harris residence now
stands on September 28th, 1844, hence at
her death was 70 years, 1 month and 3
days old. Her father was a carriage
builder and many years ago he establish-
ed his home and business on Bishop
street where the Ammerman property is
now located. It was there Miss Ammer-
man grew to womanhood and spent the
early part of her life. When thirty years
of age she went to New York city and
for thirty years was an earnest mission
worker in the slums of that city, doing
to the poor and down-trodden. She re-
turned to Bellefonte about ten years ago
and the balance of her life was spent
here.
She was a faithful member of the
Presbyterian church since girlhood. Her
only immediate survivor is her sister,
Mary Ammerman, of this place, but there
are several first cousins, among them
and was taken to the hospital only twen- |
much good by her faithful ministrations |

The vote on State Senator is as fol-
lows:
Michigan, Wyoming and Indiana. Out
of all the apparent landslide to Republi-
canism the Democrats have, nevertheless,
held their own in every State but Ohio,
New York and New Jersey.
The vote for United States Senator and
Governor, so far compiled is as follows:
—A. H. Palm, Howard Rowland, Harry
Barnes and W. Heber Wolf, of Philips-
burg, and Al. C. Grazier, of Warriors-
mark, were victims of a collision on the
Allepopper road at Houtzdale, last Wed-

THAT SIREN WHISTLE AT NEW PENI-
TENTIARY.—On Saturday, November 7th,
1914, between the hours of 12:00 noon
and 1:00 p. m., the siren whistle at the
new western penitentiary, will be blown
in series of five blasts at intervals of one-
half minute each, with an interval of ten
‘minutes between each five blast series.
This whistle has been installed by the
western penitentiary at the new prison
at Rockview, to announce the escape of
a prisoner to the residents of Centre
county within hearing ‘distance of the
whistle, and the demonstration of same,
as set forth above, is to make known to
the community the exact signal which is
to signify the escape of a prisoner from
the institution.
The officials of the penitentiary are
desirious of learning the exact radius in
which this signal can be heard, and to
that end will be pleased to have reports
by telephone from any of the residents
of the community, which will enlighten
them on this point.
For assisting in the capture of the two
convicts who escaped some time ago,
$100.00 in rewards was paid to residents
of Centre county.

The Servian minister has been re-

He had occasion to go to Ramey last
Wednesday and invited the other four
men to go algng on his motor car. They
left Ramey shortly after six o'clock, ex-
pecting a clear track and were running
along at about twenty-five miles an hour
when, on rounding a curve in Houtzdale
they were confronted with a passenger
car on the track ahead of them. Wolf
was the first man to see it and he called
to the men to jump. They all jumped
but Barnes and he was thrown against
the bumpers of the passenger coach with
such force as to completely crush his
left arm. The injuries of the other men
were sustained in jumping.
The impact of the collision knocked
the truck from under the baggage car
and practically demolished the light
motor car. All the injured men are
known in Bellefonte.

at the home of her sister, Mrs. F. M.
Clarke, at 413 Louisa street, Williams-

will be remembered by many residents
of Bellefonte as a very pleasing and
lovable woman. Her only survivors are

Electric company. The big concrete
dam built by Rhoads & Knisely was com-
pleted a week ago and once again there
will be an artificial lake of water there,
over land that has been farmed for a
decade. The electric plant is nearing
completion and will be put in partial
operation in the near future, although it
will be some weeks yet before the com-
pany will be able to use it exclusively.
Enthusiastic over the building of the
plant at that place, and believing that it
will be an inducement for small industries
to locate there, citizens of Milesburg are
now arranging to organize a board of
trade to push the town and the golden
opportunities lying around loose just
waiting for some one to invest his mon-
ey and become rich over night, as it
were.
Then, there is Our Boys band, the
like of which cannot be found elsewhere
in the State, and last week a new mov-
ing picture theatre was opened which
will help to entertain Milesburgers three
nights in a week.
Milesburgers are always wide awake,
which was evidenced by the splendid
Hallowe’en entertainment they gave last
Saturday evening, when there was a
parade in costume and a ball en masque.
A number of Bellefonte young people
went down to the Burg and took part in
the parade and dance, one merry maiden
being the partner of a Milesburg gen-
tleman who took the first cash prize for
the most strikingly costumed couple.
Three cash prizes were awarded $3.00,
$2.00 and $1.00. It was a delightful af-
fair throughout, even to the refreshments
served during the evening.

C. H. Meyers and wife and Mrs. Geo. Homan

The stork in his rounds last week left a chubby
little boy at John Houcks and a little girl at John
Sasserman’s. Its name is Nannie Glenn.
Mr. and Mrs. Will Glenn and Mr. and Mrs.
William Rishel. Lemont, were Sabbath day visit-
ors at the J. H. Williams home at Bloomsdorf.
The Hallowe’en masquerade at Meyers hall on
Saturday evening, under the auspices of the I,
W. T. band, was a success socially and finan-
cially.
Frank Peters, John Houck and J. P. Zong came
up from Bellefonte in the formers auto for a two
days hunt in the Barrens, and had to their credit
18 cotton tails.
The James Glenn barn wall is nearing com-
pletion, so that the new structure will likely be
under roof before the snow flakes fly. Howard
Evey has the job.
Last week Mrs. Mary Brouse, of Williamsport,
and sister, Alice Orr of Clearfield, visited at the
J. L. Murphy home on Water street, preparatory
