very close, either.

Wash, and will be. located there until
the building is’ completed. The Beezer

OPENING OF THE DEER HUNTING SEA-
SON.—The deer hunting season opened
on Wednesday morning and it is estimat-
ed that from fifteen hundred to two
thousand hunters were in camp on the
Alleghenies, in the Seven mountains, the
| Barrens and - other mountain fastnesses
of Centre county ready to take the trail
by the break of day on the first. Hunt-
ing partis started for the mountains last
week, although some did not go out un-
til Tuesday. The Gentzel-Miller party
from this place started for the Green
woods, out beyond Karthaus, on Sunday,
expecting to get fully established in
camp by Monday evening. The State
College hunters, and the parties from
Pine Grove Mills, Centre Hall, Boalsburg
and other places through Pennsvalléy all
went out on Monday.
Advance reports from the mountains
would indicate deer as being quite plen-
tiful, yet hunters were somewhat handi-
capped on the opening day by lack of a
tracking snow. At this writing no re-
ports have been received from any of
the hunting camps and it will probably
be some days before any reliable news
can be had, but the WATCHMAN will ap-
preciate it if its readers in all parts of
the county will telephone us reports of
any deer or bear they know of being
killed during the next twb weeks.
The absence of a tracking snow on
Wednesday morning was a source of con-
siderable regret to the hunters, but it
didn’t result in a complete protection to
the game. Among the successful hunters
was a party from Hecla, which includes
Robert Harnish, Lawrence McMullen,
Cummings McNitt, L W. Grenoble, Les-
ter Grenoble, George Yarnell, Orvis Yar-
nell, John Yearick and Joseph Yarnell.
They went into camp in Sugar. valley
and early in the day wounded a big buck
but did not get it. Later Lawrence Mec-
Mullen and several others were hunting
on the mountain above Hecla when Law
rence came across a hole in the rocks.
He investigated the hole and decided
there was something in it, so he called to
Bob Harnish to come and have a look.
The latter did so and between them they
decided that it must be a porcupine.
Harnish shot into the hole and as that
did not bring results he started to crawl
in. When about full length in the hole
he shot again and that time got a re-
sponse in an ominous grow! which prov-
ed beyond argument that the occupant
of the hole was a bear. Bob immediately
backed out and right after him came the
bear with its mouth wide open. But that
was its undoing, for as soon as it stuck
its head out of the hole both men fired
and the animal dropped dead in its tracks.
They pulled it from the hole and toted it
down to Hecla where it now hangs at
the Harnish home. The bear weighs in
the neighborhood of 300 pounds.
A telephone message from Woodward
on Wednesday evening stated that the
Woodward party, hunting in’ the Nar-
rows, had gotten two bucks, a four and
a five pronged one. They also saw a
number of others.
George Sheeler shot a large buck in
Brush hollow, near Show Shoe.
The Rote and Wingard party of Co-
burn, got a bear.
Wilmer Kerstetter, of Ingleby, shot a
two prong buck.
The Filimore club in the Seven moun-
tains got a three prong buck.
The State College club at Shingletown
gap, got two deer. All the above being
on Wednesday.
A report came to town yesterday that
the Panthers got one buck on the open-
ing day. :

CEADER'S MODEL BAKERY NEARING
COMPLETION—While the remodeling of
the Ceader’s bakery is taking a little
longer than was anticipated it is now
nearing;completion and in a short time
Ceader’s famous bread will be on the
market. In order to have ample facilities
a building was built in the rear of the
main building in which the bread baking
department will be located while the pie
and cake department will be in the cellar
where the old bakery was located.
The new bakery which will be entirely
mechanical and as automatic as possible,
will have a capacity of five thousand
loaves a day. It will be operated con-
tinuously, so that as soon as one baking
is out of the oven another will be ready
to putin. It will be Mrs. Ceader’s aim
to supply Bellefonte and surrounding
towns with the best and purest bread it
is possible to make, and supply it fresh.
Bread will be supplied to any town or
country district in the county. The new
bakery will be a convenience to Belle-
fonte dealers as they will be able to get
a supply as needed.
Mrs. Ceader will also give special at-
tention to the pie and cake department,
which has always been a big feature of
the Ceader bakery.

BiG FIRE AT CHEMICAL LIME ComPaA-
NY’S PLANT.—Shortly after five o'clock
yesterday morning fire broke out in the
crusher building at the Chemical Lime
company’s plant on Buffalo Run and be-
fore the flames could be checked the
building and two stock houses were total-
ly destroyed. The crusher building was
sixty feet square and eighty feet high
while the stock houses, one on each side
of the crusher building, were fifty feet
square and sixty feet high. Owing to
the big timbers in the buildings the fire
burned for two hours and it was only by
hard work on the part of the firemen
that the engine and boiler room and oth-
er adjacent buildings were saved. Both
Bellefonte fire companies responded to
the alarm and did efficient service.
The loss on the building and machin-
ery is estimated at from $20,000 to $25,-
000, partially covered by insurance. How
the fire originated is a mystery, as there
was no fire in any of the buildings. The

sible.

services in the Presbyterian church on

extending the call and seventy-three
against it. Rev. Finney spent ten days

two successive Sundays. He is an able
minister and sound theologian, but the
