Loeb. Burial will be made in Chicago.
KILLED A MONSTER BEAR.—Ira Packer,
of Marsh Creek, is just now the hero of
that section of Centre county, because
he not only killed the first bear in Cen-
tre county this season, but it was the
biggest bear killed in many years. Mr. i
Packer, with his brother-in-law, Henry |
Confer, and several other Marsh Creek |
hunters, went out into the foothills of |
the Allegheny mountains on Thursday |
night for a raccoon hunt. Along toward '
midnight their dogs treed an animal of :
}
some kind, or at least acted as if they |
had. Naturally the men all gathered |
around the tree and were discussing the
best and easiest way of dislodging what- |
ever was up the tree. !
Suddenly there was a crashing of un-
derbrush and before the men realized
what was happening a monster bear rush-
ed out of the brush almost upon them.
Packer had a gun but the bear was too
close to deliberate or take aim and
thrusting the muzzle against the bear’s
head, fired. The animal fell dead in its
tracks. It was too big to take home
that night so stringing the carcass up as
safely as possible the men went out Fri-
day morning with a two horse wagon
and hauled it home. The bear dressed
357 pounds. After distributing some of '
the meat among residents of Marsh |
Creek Mr. Packer brought some of it to
Bellefonte on Friday and disposed of it
here.
The hunters are now of the opinion
that what they supposed was a raccocn
treed by the dogs was really a cub bear
and the mother made her rush upon
them in defense of her young.

FAIR PLAY-THAT'S ALL
In plain words the Woman Suffrage
movement is a plea for a square deal. In
a man’s world the fellow who does not
believe in a square deal, and live up to it,
does not stand very high.
If you had no vote, how would
feel about it ?
Well, that is the way the women feel
about it.
Everybody is going to benefit by wo-
man suffrage—the men as well as the
women. But if there were no arguments
in its favor other than the single one
That it is But Simple Justice, that one
you
alone ought to secure the vote for women
in a State where the standard of intelli-
gence is as high as it is in Pennsylvania.
The Suffrage Amendment is Number 1.
Vote for it before you turn to “the ticket.”

“STOP, LOOK, LISTEN!
A Lawyer received $10,000 for suggesting these
words to a railroad. The sign, “Stop, Look, Lis-
ten!” saved the road many thousands of dollars
in damages. It’sa good sign. It’s worth $10,000.
Wise people are often warned by a similar sign on
the road of extravagance. They stop in time.
How about yourself? Think this over seriously.
