Terms of Subscription.—Until further notice this paper will be furnished to sub- scribers at the following rates: Paid strictly in advance - - $1.50 Paid before expiration of year - 1.75 Paid after expiration of year - 2.00 Brief Meeting of Borough Council. Although there had not been a regular meeting of borough council since August 6th, it was necessary to send for one member in order to geta quorum on Monday evening, but in the meantime another member strolled in so that six were present. Burgess Blanchard appeared in per- son and invited council to attend the reception to the conscripts on Tuesday evening in a body, and the invitation was accepted. Secretary W. T. Kelly presented a written petition from residents of Curtin street for a crossing, but as the crossing had already been put in no action was necessary. Mr. Kelly also read a number of communications from the State-Cen- tre Electric company relative to the differences existing between that com- pany and the borough on the street- lighting © and water-pumping con- tracts, but inasmuch as the entire matter is still inthe hands of the Special committee no action was taken. The Street committee reported the treasurer’s receipt for $19.00 in acknowledgement as a payment for street oil. Mr. Harris also reported that five crossings had been relaid on Curtin street and that the committee had secured the Walker township stone crusher and had men at work crushing stone on east Howard street. Mr. Harris also moved that the stone crossing on Bishop street, about mid- way between Spring and Allegheny, be removed and the street filled with crushed stone and rolled and council authorized its removal. Mr. Harris also stated that a new crossing was badly needed on Bishop street from the T. Clayton Brown property to the house owned by the Bellefonte Acad- emy, and on motion of Mr. Seibert the committee was instructed to put down a concrete crossing at that place. The committee’s attention was called to the condition of north Allegheny street and Thomas street, both of which are badly in need of repair. Mr. Seibert, of the Water commit- tee, reported the repair of leaking pipes on north Spring street and at the Brown Row, and also some repairs made at the Phoenix mill. He also stated that the various water metres and fire plugs ought to be gone over and putin good condition before cold weather sets in. He further called at- tention to the fact that the reservoir had been empty several times and that no care was being taken of the pump house at the big spring. | Mr. Seibert also presented the re- quest of the Titan Metal company that a three inch water main be laid out to their new operation at the Nittany Furnace site. This matter was refer- red to the Water committee to ascer- tain the distance, ete., and report at next meeting. The Fire and Police committee pre- sented the burgess’ check for $17.25 for fines and licenes collected. The Finance committee asked for the renewal of the following notes, all for six months: One for $1,000 dated September 3rd; $1,000 September 4th; $400 September 5th; $800 and $2,000 September 18th; $1,300 September 20th; $1,200 September 22nd, and $5,500 September 27th, all of which were authorized. : Bills to the amount of $2,237.39 were approved and council adjourned. Two Men Electrocuted. Two men were electrocuted at the morning. The first was John Robin- son, who was taken to the chair at 7:06 o'clock. Five contacts were giv- en and at 7:10 he was pronounced dead by Dr. Robert J. Campbell. Rob- inson was convicted of killing police- man Lewis C. Hipple, in June, 1916, when the latter undertook to arrest him and a companion for fighting and carrying concealed deadly weapons. The second man electrocuted was Elwood Wilson, who was taken to the chair at 7:18 and after four contacts was pronounced dead at 7:22. Wilson was convicted of murdering Tomo Pakovic in October, 1916, when the latter resisted an attempt to rob him. The bodies of both men were buried in the penitentiary cemetery. Both crimes were committed in Harrisburg. Guernsey Breeder’s Notice. On Tuesday afternoon, October 2nd, at 1:30 p. m., there will be a meeting in the court house, Bellefonte, to con- sider the organization of a Centre county Guernsey Breeder’s associa- tion. Considerable interest has been stir- red up among the Guernsey breeders in the county to organize in order to promote the breeding and improve- ment of high-grade and pure bred Guernsey cattle in Centre county and to aid its members in buying, breed- ing, and selling first-class animals. All persons in the county interested in Guernsey cattle, whether they have any pure-breds or not, are urged to attend. The advisability of such a movement will be gone over thorough- ly and if favorable an organization will be started. ——Major James Baylies, a retired U. S. army officer, has been detailed by the War Department for duty as commandant at State College during the ensuing year. MILES.—Milesburg lost one of its leading citizens this week in the death on Monday of W. B. Miles, of the firm of Wm. B. Miles & Son. He had been in fair health until last Saturday a week when he complained of feeling ill and was compelled to take his bed. From that time on he gradually grew weaker until he finally passed away at 11:20 o’clock on Monday morning, his death being due to his advanced age. William Brown Miles was a son of Alexander and Anna Brown Miles and he was born at Howard on June 23rd, 1835, hence was 82 years, 2 months and 24 days old. His early life was spent in the place of his birth. In ear- ly manhood he worked for Mr. Irvin, of Howard, at the iron trade. Later he was employed with John Fallon at Farransdale and Washington Furnace, as an iron worker, at which he became very proficient. In 1865 he went to Milesburg and had charge of the Mc- Coy & Linn mills for several years. In 1874 he went to Berwick and was general superintendent for the Jack- son & Wooden Manufacturing compa- ny. About forty years ago he re- turned to Milesburg and engaged in the mercantile business, in which he was quite successful and which for a number of years past has been con- ducted under the firm name of W. B. Miles & Son, his son Oscar becoming a partner. Mr. Miles became a member of the Methodist church over fifty years ago and had been a faithful worker in the Master’s cause ever since, filling vari- ous offices in the church with the ut- most care and fidelity. The present church in Milesburg was erected largely through his instrumentality, loyalty and gifts. And until the weight of years forbade his further attention he personally looked after its condition and care. In fact, his place will be hard to fill. Mr. Miles was a valuable citizen and took a great interest in municipal affairs and everything of benefit to his home town. He served several terms as a member of the borough council, and was its president for several years. It was mainly through him that the present water system of Milesburg was installed. He took great pains in doing things right, both in his church and home town. He was a member of the Masonic fraternity and one of the oldest in the county, having affiliated with the Or- der over fifty years ago. About fifty-eight years ago he was united in marriage to Miss Emma A. Lucas, of Howard, who survives with one son, Oscar E. Four children pre- ceded him to the grave. Funeral serv- ices were held at his late home at two o'clock on Wednesday afternoon by Rev. W. A. Lepley, assisted by Revs. Piper and Poulson, after which burial was made in the Bellefonte Union cemetery. Il I MAYES.—Joseph Ferdun Mayes died quite unexpectedly last Thursday night {hile in attendance at the Granger’s picnic at Centre Hall. Mayes worked for W. A. Lyon, the butcher, and left the shop about five o'clock to go to the picnic. He was on the grounds until after nine o’clock and was apparently all right. Later he went to the hotel at Centre Hall and while there was taken suddenly ill, dying within a few minutes. Deceased was a son of Mr. and Mrs. John Mayes and was born at Snow Shoe on August 20th, 1881, hence was a little past thirty-six years of age. He had lived in Bellefonte a number of years. Surviving him are his wife, who before her marriage was Miss Toner, and the following brothers and sisters: George Mayes, of McKees- port; Edward, of Yarnell; Mrs. Harry Kessling, of Yarnell; Mrs. James Fye, of near Milesburg; Mrs. George Cart- wright; Moshannon; Mrs. Benjamin Richards and Mrs. Clarence St. Clair, Snow Shoe. The funeral was held on Sunday morning, the remains being taken to Snow Shoe for burial in the Askey cemetery. 4 1l ROTHROCK. — Mrs. Mary Roth- rock, widow of Henry Rothrock, died at her home in Spring township at 4:30 o’clock on Tuesday morning as the result of a general breakdown in health. She was a daughter of James and Margaret Woods and was bern in Pot- ter township on October 12th, 1844, hence was almost seventy-three years old. On December 29th, 1863, she was united in marriage to Henry Roth- rock by Rev. Nathan Mitchell, of Howard. Practically all her married life was spent at the Rothrock home in Spring township. She is survived by two sons, George, of Niagara Falls, and James, at home. She also leaves one sister and two brothers, namely: Mrs. Theodore Kelly and Edward Woods, of Bellefonte, and William Woods, of State College.

Yo- cum, of Bellefonte, after which bur- ial was made in the Union cemetery. I Il : HOLT.—Samuel Holt, a well known resident of Moshannon, died quite sud- denly last Saturday morning as the re- sult of a stroke of paralysis. He re- tired on Friday evening in his usual health, was stricken during the night and died early in the morning. Deceased was a son ‘of Mr. and Mrs. J. Harbison Holt and was born in Snow Shoe township fifty-two years ago. He followed farming all his life and was well known throughout Snow Shoe township. He was a member of the Presbyterian church and was highly respected in the community in which he spent his entire life.

Il Il WHITEHILL.—Dorothy Whitehill, the young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Whitehill, of Lemont, died in a tent at the Granger’s picnic about 10:30 o’clock last Thursday morning. The child had been a sufferer the past two years with valvular heart trouble and with the consent of the family physician she was taken along to the picnic last week, the family occupying a tent there. Thursday morning she became suddenly worse and died be- fore a physician could be summoned. Deceased was twelve years and four months old and in addition to her par- ents is survived by the following brothers and sisters: Marion, Her- man, Margaret, Hazel, Harold, Walter and Frederick. Rev.

Pettingill, of Lock Haven, went over to Lewistown on Friday and arrested Samuel Shope, who was wanted in Lock Haven to answer to the charge of deserting his wife and child, taking him back and lodging him in the Clinton county jail. Shope was formerly of Centre coun- ty but some time after his marriage moved to Fairpoint, Clinton county. About two years ago, it is alleged, he deserted his wife and left that county, taking the name of Charles Riggle. He had been living in Coatesville, Pa., with a young woman named May Coo- ney, aged eighteen years, said to be from Centre Hall, according to the statement of the officer, and the peo- ple in the community where they lived regarded them as man and wife. Last week the couple attended the Grangers’ picnic at Centre Hall and while the girl remained there with relatives, Shope proceeded to Lewis- town on a business errand. Constable Pettingill, who had the warrant for some time, learned of his presence in Lewistown and on going over there Friday found his man. coo What the Needlework Guild Has Done The Bellefonte branch of the Nee- dlework Guild of America shipped 1500 articles last week to Lyons, France. This makes a total of 5735 articles prepared and sent since March, including 276 dish towels for Troop L. The Unionville unit of the Bellefonte Branch has contributed 342 articles,—surgical ‘ dressings and splendid feather pillows. The Branch has also received much valuable as- sistance from the W.C.T.U., Thim- ble Bee, the Pickwick club, the Sewing society of the Reformed church, Mrs. Crawford’s Sunday school class and a number of ladies in Milesburg. The work is all done through voluntary contributions in money and materials. The war relief work does not inter- fere with the annual collection of gar- ments for home charity. Attention! The forty-fourth annual reunion of the Centre county veteran club will be held at Pine Grove Mills on Saturday, September 22nd, all day, to which all the gray and grizzled veterans are cordially invited. Attend and mingle with comrades and friends and renew the ties of comradeship that have been unbroken for more than half a zentu- ry. The comrades and friends of Pine Grove Mills are arranging for 2 very pleasant gathering. Strive to be at roll call promptly at 10:30 a: m. JOHN HAMILTON, President. W. H. FRY, Secretary. ——The management of the Belle- fonte hospital hereby extends sincere thanks to those Granger exhibitors at the encampment at Centre Hall last week who so generously donated their exhibits of fruit and vegetables to the hospital. Fifty-eight Centre Countians Depart for Fort Meade On Wednesday. Following very shortly after the departure of Troop L for their train- ing camp at Fort Hancock, Augusta, Ga., fifty-eight young men represent- ing Centre county’s first contingent to the new national army took their departure for Fort Meade, Admiral, Md., on Wednesday morning, going on the Lewisburg & Tyrone railroad to Montandon, where they joined a spe- cial train to convey them to their des- tination. As given in the “Watchman” last week just seventy-five young men were ordered to report here on Mon- day afternoon from which to select the forty-five per cent. of Centre county’s quota, or fifty-three men. Of the seventy-five summoned sixty-nine reported, four of the others being ex- cused for the present on account of appeals pending, one being too far away from home to get his notice in time and another man, Effin Lawick, having mysteriously disappeared since registration day.

Taylor who marched them to the armory and gave them their first les- sons in the rudiments of military drill and regulations. On Tuesday he also gave them a drill both morning and afternoon, and while it could not be expected that the squad would make much of a showing in that time they at least got an inkling of what they must do to become a soldier. When the citizens of Bellefonte learned last Friday just when these national army boys would leave they decided to give them a reception, in which the citizens of the county were invited to join, as the squad represent- ed the entire county. Tuesday even- ing was fixed as the time and the dem- onstration accorded them that evening was proof of the interest manifested in their -velfare by the public in gen- eral. . Fully five thousand people were here to do them honor and wish the young men the best of luck. A big parade was one of the features of the evening. The parade formed opposite the “Watchman” office and was made up as follows: FIRST DIVISION. Mounted State Constabulary. Chief Marshall H. S. Taylor and Staff. Our Boys Band of Milesburg. G. A. R. Centre County Exemption Board. ~ Selected Men for National Army. Reception Committee. Bellefonte Borough Council. SECOND DIVISION. Marshall Edmund Blanchard and Staff. Bellefonte Lodge P. O. S. of A. Bellefonte Fire Department. Bellefonte Lodge of Moose. Bellefonte Academy Students. THIRD DIVISION. Marshall P. D. Foster and Staff. Cadet Band of State College. Bellefonte Chapter of the Red Cross. in uniform. FOURTH DIVISION. Marshall Jonas E. Wagner and Staff. Our Girls Band of Milesburg. Boys Reserve. The Boy Scouts. School Children. The parade moved shortly after eight o’clock, marched up High street to the Diamond, north on Allegheny to Linn street, west on Linn to Spring and south on Spring to the armo- ry of Troop L, where a public meeting was held. Col. J. L. Spangler presided and the speakers were Dr. E. E. Sparks, of State College; Dr. A. M. Schmidt, Father Downes, Rev. W. M. B. Glanding and Col. H. S. Taylor. Immediately following the speech making the young men were served with a luncheon and smoker. On Wednesday morning they all Ink when sheriff George H. Yar- {lined up in the Diamond at 5:30 nell announced that he had appointed | Joseph J. Lingle to take charge of the i squad; Howard H. Rowland first as- | sistant; Frank T. Hess second assist- i ant, and David A. Deitrich third as- sistant. He also announced that just | fifty-eight men would be sent away | and the eleven excused and sent back ‘home to await the next quota were Lewis A. Crater, George F. Shawver, Victor E. Holt, Thomas A. Richard, Samuel B. Barnhart, Peter Lyons, Claude L. Whitehill, Ralph L. Rachau, John E. Smith, Herman B. Eves and Clifford A. Heltman. To the credit of these young men be it said that they would rather have gone now than waited but the limit that could be sent on Wednesday was fifty-eight. From the Diamond the boys march- ed to the depot where the roll was called and as soon as the train pulled up they boarded the extra car provid- ed for them. J. Thomas Mitchell then i checked the men up to see that all were aboard and delivered the papers to Capt Lingle. Almost immediately the train pulled out and the few peo- ple gathered at the depot waved the {boys a hearty good-bye. Leaving at i the time they did they were scheduled | to arrive in camp about five o’clock | the same afternoon. ——— eee i Work of the Red Cross. | The Bellefonte Chapter of the Red Cross this week shipped away three boxes of supplies representing 385% days’ work of these energetic women since the latter part of June. The boxes were sent direct to the Bush Terminal, New York city, for ship- ment to France. One of the boxes contains mostly muslin articles, 1275 in number, another 1848 gauze arti- cles and the third 129 knit articles. To give “Watchman” readers an idea of the work that has been done we herewith publish the list of contents in each box, as follows: BOX NO. 1. 14 Doz. Abdominal Bandages. 10 Doz. T bandages. 32 Doz. Head bandages. 14 Doz. Slings. 5% Doz. Flannel bandages. 4 inch. 6% Doz. Flannel bandages, 3 inch. 51% Doz. Muslin bandages, 4 inch. 7 Doz. Muslin bandages, 3 inch. 6 Splint pillows. 3 Stump socks. BOX NO. 2. 50 Doz. Gauze pads, 9x9. 54 Doz. Gauze pads, 4x4. 50 Doz. Gauze sponges, 4x4. BOX NO. 3. 2-3 Doz. Knitted shawls. Knitted afghans. Snip pillows. Miscellaneous woolen articles. 5 Doz. Wash cloths. 1 Doz. Knitted wash cloths. 3 Doz. Handkerchiefs. All the above articles were inspect- ed and counted by Miss Mary Miles Blanchard, who had charge of all the work except the knitted articles and those were in charge of Miss Lida Morris. In addition to the above work Miss Morris has been instrumental in hav- ing knit for the Red Cross supplies in this country 180 pair of socks and twenty-five of the two hundred sets of sweater, scarf, wristlets and socks. Centre county's next contingent of thirty per cent. of its quota will prob- ably be sent to Camp Meade on or about October 3rd, and announcement will probably be made next week of the men selected to go. Out of the first one hundred men certified by the Centre county exemp- tion board te the district board, nine- ty-nine were certified back as being acceptable for service. The one excep- tion was Charles F. Arney, of Aarons- burg, who was discharged on his claim as an agriculturist. oe 1 StLW a1 The War Library Fund. The War Department has asked the American Library association to pro- vide books to meet the needs of the million men, soon to be gathered in training camps, in our own country and in France.. Plans have been made to establish in each camp a regular or branch li- brary, under experienced workers. To do this while the war lasts will require $1,000,000. This money will be used to buy books and periodicals, to dis- tribute and house them. The men in the camps are eager for reading and no better provision can be made to prevent our boys from return- ing debauched by camp experience than this united, intelligent effort to provide them with good, clean recre- ation. Each community is asked to raise its share of the money. Every one should contribute his or her portion. $1.00 will purchase one book, five cents will give a daily paper. Send your contributions to Mrs. Robert Mills Beach, Bellefonte, who has been asked to help raise Centre county’s allotment of about $200. The Wizard of Wiseland. Some idea can be formed of the magnitude of the outlay required to get “The Wizard of Wiseland” ready for production by considering the item of costumes alone. Over 400 are used during the performance and these em- brace messaline costumes, Irish boy and girl type, sailor, brigand, Indian, cowboy, fairy costumes, animal cos- tumes, etc., and the beautiful and lat- est creation, the moon costume. The design of the costumes in toto is that of Monsieur Florenti, the well known Parisian expert, whose creations are in great demand for all the great spec- tacular productions in continental Eu- rope. The initial presentation here will be given at Garman’s, this (Fri- day) evening. Prices, 35, 50, 75 cents and $1.00. Children, 25 cents. ——DFor high class job work come to the “Watchman” office.
