——An explanation is due our readers
on the absence of Corp. Cohen's letter.
The gas was so poor yesterday that we
could not use our typesetting machine.
The result was we had to set the letter
by hand and after it was in type an em-
ployee fell down stairs and pied the
whole galley, and thus was the downfall
of Corp. Cohen.
——Notwithstanding the fact that
the Pitt Freshmen defeated the Belle-
fonte Academy football team last
Saturday by the score of 7 to 6 every
person who saw the game agreed that
the Academy is the better team: and
their defeat was the result of a few
hard breaks of football fortune just
at a time when they needed a little
luck the most. In fact it was the best
game seen in Bellefonte in years and
should have been more liberally pa-
tronized. .
Immediately thereafter T. R. Au-
man, representing the citizens of
Miles township took out an appeal to
the Superior court to have the judg-
ment of the lower court set aside. The
case was argued the first Monday in
October and by Monday’s decision of
the Superior court Mr. Long will re-
tain his license and the latter court
has established a new precedent.
“In such cases,” said Justice Head,
“revisory jurisdiction confines us to
examination of the record and the as-
certainment of the court and that
the proceeding was conducted accord-
ing to law. We need not concern our-
selves with the fact that the proceed-
ing was begun by Judge Orvis and
concluded by Judge Quigley. Gener-
ally speaking, and under normal con-
ditions, the court of quarter sessions
is, in contemplation of the law, a con-
tinuous entity.”
—— Kelly Bros., of Snow Shoe, re-
cently leased three hundred acres of
coal lands in the neighborhood of
Winburne and intend opening opera-
tions there. They are also negotiat-
ing for an additional tract of land, all
of which is underlaid with a four foot
vein of fine coal.
The weather the past several
weeks has been all that the farmers
could desire for huskirg and housing
their corn and every one of them
ought to get his crop in in good
shape; but the probability is that
when snow falls it will catch some
farmers with a portion of their corn
still in the field.

address distributed throughout the

the report of the delegates to the Phila-

Dates and occasions have been speci-

In accordance with the procla-
mation of President Wilson request-
ing the various churches of the Unit-
States to take up a collection on Sun-
day, October 22nd, for the benefit of

of Bellefonte contributed the sum of
$108.00, which amount has been for-
warded to the treasurer of the associ-
ation in New York.
Commissioners te Continue Contribu-
tions to Soldiers’ Families.
A little misunderstanding arose last
week between the officers of the Cen-
tre county Soldiers’ Relief associa-
tion and the Centre county commis-
sioners regarding the latter’s contri-
bution of $250.00 monthly to the
county funds for the relief of the
families of soldiers now on the Mexi-
can border. The commissioners ob-
jected to contributing any more mon-
ey unless the entire amount was spent
in the interest of the soldier’s fami-
lies.
At the regular meeting of the com-
missioners on Friday Col. Spangler,
president of the Relief association,
and other citizens met with the com-
missioners and after fully discussing:
the question the. commissioners
agreed to continue the stipulated
monthly contribution and the officials
of the Relief association promised
that every cent of the amount would
be distributed for the purpose it was
given. :
Curwensville people are anx-
ious to know why no disposition has
been made cf the case of D. O. Down-
ing, the former Centre county mar
who plead guilty to sheoting paying
teller H. M. Hoover, while attempting
to rob the Curwensville National bank
last June. The question of mental re-
sponsibility was raised by Downing’s
attorneys after he had entered the
plea of guilty, and thongh an expert
from Warren examined him no report
of the examination has yet been heard
of at Curwensville.
It’s All a Question of Whose Bull is
Gored..
The following item from Friday's
Harrisburg “Star-Independent” is
self-explanatory.
A motor bus line running opposition
to a railway company, and complain-
ing that an agent of the railway com-
pany is working the jitney scheme to
get patronuge, was one of the novel
complaints received in the Public
Service Department today.
The Emory Motor Bus Line Com-
pany, a®Bellefonte corporation doing
business out of Bellefonte to sur-
rounding points, asked the Commis-
sion some time ago, it says, whether
it was necessary for it, a chartered
company, to take out a certificate of
convenience, under the commission’s
hg and was informed that it was
not.
Then the bus company lodged com-
plaint against Norman E. Wright, of
the Bellefonte Central Railway Com-
pany, that he is operating an automo-
bile service between State College and
various points without a certificate of
convenience as required by the Com-
mission.
——We saw a telegram from the
Studebaker ‘Corporaticn yesterday,
that was received by Geo. A Beezer
their local representative, informing
him that a raize in the price of Stude-
baker cars will soon be made. The
cars are now selling on a basis fig-
ured fifteen months ago and as the
cost of the material and labor has in-
" creased from fifteen to twenty-five
per cent since that time the price of
this popular car will have to be in-
creased accordingly. We would advise
anyone who has been considering buy-
ing a Studebaker to do it at once.
While we have no authority for say-
ing so we are of the opinion that Mr.
Beezer will let you have a new car at
the old price if the order is placed be-
fore the raise goes into effect.

A Good Bear Story.
While many Centre county hunters |
are going to the woods in search of
game of all kinds and bewailing their |
luck because they find so little of it to
shoot at, Henry Walters, of College
township, almost had a fit one day |
last week when a big bear came close
to his heme and he had no gun with |
which to shoot it. |
Mr. Walters has a dog, in fact a |
bulldog with all the fighting blood of |
that species of canine, and when the!
bear came strolling into the field next |
dog
wouldn’t stand for it. Without wait-
ing to investigate the species of ani.
mal it was he made for the bear. |
Somewhat put out at this unlooked- |
for interruption to his stroll the bear |
hit the dog with his front paw and
sent him a sprawling on the ground.
But he didn’t know the kind of a dog
he was up against, because that act
only served to awaken the temper in
Mr. Walter’s bulldog.
With one spring he was at the bear
again and got him by the nose. The
bear pawed air for a few seconds then !
tried the hugging process. Mr. Wal-
ters then attempted to take a hand in |
the encounter, armed only with a club |
but the bear managed to tear the dog |
loose and started for Mr. Walters. |
The latter beat a hasty retreat and
started for his nearest neighbor to
borrow a gun. But the dog was still
game. Ancther spring and he got a
better nose hold. Try as he would the
bear couldn’t shake hin loose and he
couldn’t squeeze him loose, so he de-
cided on flight. His progress, how-
ever, was somewhat impeded by the
dog, which still retained his nose hold |
and it was not until the bear had |
dragged him several hundred feet
that the dog lost his grip, when the
bear made off as fast as he could go.
In the meantime Mr. Walters re-
turned with a gun but the bear was
then at a safe distance and running
on schedule time, so that the opportu-
nity for a bear feasi passed about as
quickly as it cane.
