——State game protector Charles
Batcheler, of Philipsburg, had a busy

All told about one hundred dollars worth
. of claims were probated.
——About the middle of next month
the members of the Harrisburg Board of
Trade will visit Bellefonte for a day.
There will be five hundred of the capi-
tal city’s business men accompanied by
a brass band. They will come by special
train and there will probably be a short
meeting in the court house to bid them

——M. D. Garman, of near Curtin,
claims that he was not arrested and
fined for cruelty to animals because he
drove a horse to Bellefonte that was “lit-
erally skin and bones,” but because he
was driving a team of horses with very
sore shoulders; and to prove his asser-
tion he led the team to this office on
Wednesday as evidence. And he further
stated that he had gotten two new col-
jars and would not work the animals un-
til their shoulders got well.
——Why hesitate when in doubt as to
where to spend an evening? Try the
Scenic and you’ll go away satisfied that
you have had an evening of pleasurable
entertainment. Manager T. Clayton
Brown is now showing a class of pictures
that cannot be seen at any other picture
show in this section. They are put out
by the best companies in the business
and are regarded high class in every par-
ticular. Only by attending regularly will

——During the noon hour yesterday
when the children of the Pine Hall
school were playing on the public road
Norman Corl, the eight year old son of
Mr. and Mrs. William Corl, was run
down by an automobile and dragged
some distance. The boy’s hip was brok-
en and he was badly cut about the head
and face. The driver of the machine
stopped and took the lad to a nearby
house where he was taken care of. The
machine was from Altoona but the own-
er’s name was not learned.
——John W. Vogel's newest offering,
“Japland,” an operatic minstrel farce-
comedy, will cause universal admiration
and bring fresh laughter to our theatre-
goers when this novelty will have its ini-
tial hearing at Garman’s next Friday,
February 4th. The company is about
the biggest thing imaginable, for John W.
Vogel’s Big Minstrels alone has been
looked upon as one of the largest repre:
sentative bodies traveling, and when you
add to that big gathering a complete
caste for opera and an unusually large
girl chorus, also a double symphony
orchestra, you have a company larger
than the largest. .

LODGE WILL ADOPT BABY
Knights of Khorassan Will Turn Out
“Goat” and Raise a Child.
Zameri Temple, dramatic orde:
of Knights of Khorassan, of Al
toona, Pa., an organization composed
of Knights of Pythias, is looking for
a baby to adopt.
The committee appointed by the
Temple is composed of County Com:
missioners Robert F. Bankert, Alder:
men Welford E. Crampsey and Wil
liam C. Shuff and N. H. Nicodemus:
They are ready to receive exhibits of
children, photographs, descriptions
and pedigrees.
The baby suggestion was made at
the installation yy Grand Vizier Rob
ert W. Smith, and was instantly act
ed upon.
He said: “Let Zameri Temple take
time by the forelock.” Why not turn
‘the temple goat out to grass, send the
temple mascot to the auction block
and buy a temple baby? Thirty cents
a day, or about $110 a year, will suf
fice to give a well trained child to 8
greater Altoona. If Zameri Temple
adopts a temple child fifty other fra
ternal societies in Altoona will go and
do likewise.”
