——During the ensuing month, or
as long as this hot spell lasts, at
least, the swimming pool at the Y.
M. C. A. will be virtually thrown
open to the business men of Belle-
fonte and their employees, free. All
that is required is to go to Dr. R. L.
Weston, general secretary, and get a
card for yourself and as many of
your employees as want to take ad-
vantage of this generous offer. There
will be no charge, as’ the manage-
ment believes in giving the public
the advantage of a cool plunge while
the weather continues hot.

——What has become of the Belle-
fonte curb market? A few years
ago it was nothing unusual to count
from twenty to thirty wagons every
Tuesday and Saturday mornings,
backed up to the curb around the
court house yard, and it was possi-
ble to buy all kinds of garden vege-
tables, berries and fruit, fresh and
crisp. So far this year there has
been no market at all and the Belle-
fonte housewife has to depend on a
chance farmer who may happen in
with a load of stuff.
Following several days of ex-
cessive heat the most of Centre
county was freshened up yesterday
by a good shower. The weather for
the entire week was the hottest of
the year and as hot as any we have
had in recent years.

Falls 850 Feet to Bottom of Mine.
Shamokin, Pa., July 12.—While
ascending to the surface of the Sus-
quehanna Coal company’s Scott
shaft tonight. Frank Yudisky fell
850 feet, from a cage full of miners
and was crushed to death, at the bot-
tom of the workings. John Pipa, a
companion, was also killed between
the cage and side of the shaft, while
attempting to save Yudisky.

Submersible Crosses the
Ocean in Safety.
Baltimore, Md., July 10.—Out of
the depths, Captain Paul Koenig
brought here today the word-of-
mouth story of the first successful
i crossing of the Atlantic by a com-
mercial submarine—the giant super-
‘submersible Deutschland which he
| says is to be followed here by others.
Supplementing a written state-
jment, the Captain this afternoon
‘told how his vessel had lain at the
bottom of the English channel one
. whole night; how he and his crew
' played the gramophone beneath the
waves; how they had lived on cham-
| pagne and the best of foods; how
they had openly sailed 3,800 miles,
. submerging only a few times for a
{few hours and doing only ninety
! miles under the surface during the
| entire trip.
His written statement announced
that the Bremen, a sister vessel will
follow the Deutschland. It’ declared
Germany now: foresees the collapse
‘of the English starvation blockade.
i The “gate will not be shut again,”
the Captain’s statement said.
| “We went down one or two times
iin the North sea for a few hours,”
i said Koenig in relating his story,
|
1
i “but we traveled only ninety miles in
!all under sea. We were four days in
i the English channel, lying on the
bottom a whole night there because
German
ithe weather was foggy. Nobody
{ saw us, however, and we sighted no
{ warships—only cruisers and de-
; stroyers.
“We started from Germany July
23, had bad weather only one day
and traveled a total distance of
about 3,800 miles. e
“It got rather close inside durin:
the rough weather but it was all
right when the hatches were off. The
Deutschland can go down 300 feet
and stay there for four days if nec-
essary, but we did not have to do
that. .
“This trip was a practical demon-
stration of the ability of a subma-
rine to pass the British blockade. We
‘expect great financial success from
| our venture and in fact the boat was
paid for by this cargo. We can car-
ry 1,000 tons, though this time we
had only 750 tons, chiefly dyestuffs,
worth a million dollars.”
Pennsylvania Troops Ordered On
Duty.
El Paso, Tex. July 11.—The
Tenth infantry, Colonel Richard
Coulter commandings and the Sec-
ond regiment, Philadelphia, = Colonel
Turner commanding, this morning
were ordered to move into the Big
Bend country for patrol duty. The
two Pennsylvania regiments will
start as soon as the Quartermaster
Department can issue necessary sup-
plies to them. The regiments likely
will leave here tomorrow night.
BOOKS, MAGAZINES, ETC.
With a view to furnishing the latest and
most accurate news of the Western Penn-
sylvania guardsmen on the border, the Pitts-
burgh ‘Gazette Times” has sent one of its
staff men, Arthur G. Burgoyne, Jr., to El
Paso, Tex. Mr. Burgoyne is the only Pitts-
burgh newspaper man with the army and
because of his wide acquaintance with men
of the Tenth and Sixteenth regiment will be
in a position to keep relatives and friends
of the guardsmen in close touch yith them.
His telegraphic stories will be in the nature
of a daily letter from the boys at the front
to the folks back home. The “Gazette
Times,” believing it owed a duty to its
readers, especially to those in the communi-
ties adjacent to Pittsburgh, spared no ex-
pense in rushing one of its own men to the
border. Mr. Burgoyne will not only send to
the “Gazette Times” telegraphic dispatches,
but will write for publication at various
times stories dealing with the personal side
of army life. He will tell what the boys are
doing what duties have been assigned them,
and if they are safe and well. His mission
is to keep readers of his paper informed of
the national guardsmen from Western Penn-
sylvania, and because of his previous exper-
ience he can be depended on to give all the
available information from the fromt.
