EE McDONNELL.—Patrick James Me- Donnell, the well known section fore- man on the Bald Eagle Valley rail- road at Unionville, died at his home in that place between eleven and twelve o’clock on Wednesday night of uraemic poisoning and blood pressure, after an illness of two weeks, although he had been ailing at times during the past year. During the deep snow in the winter Mr. McDonnell and his crew of men went to Tyrone to help clear away the snow in the yard and while engaged in that work he suffer- ed an attack that was at first thought to be a slight stroke but he recovered in a few days and attended to his work as usual until he was stricken down about two weeks ago. Deceased was a son of Patrick and Mary McDonnell and was born at Newport, County Mayo, Ireland, on January 19th, 1854, making his age 64 years, 2 months and 8 days. He came to this country when sixteen years of age and a year or two later located at Unionville and went to work for the Pennsylvania railroad company as a track hand. His care- fulness and close attention to detail won the approval and commendation of his superiors and in due course of time he was appointed foreman of the section on which he first went to work, a position he held for many years. The same constructive principles that he used in his work on the rail- road he applied in his life as a citizen of Unionville. He was always a great believer in education as the greatest uplift in life and over sixteen years ago he sought the office of school di- rector in Unionville and was elected, and during his first term he so proved his interest in the schools of his home town and his ability as a director that he was re-elected and re-elected, so that he held the office ever since, not- withstanding the fact that he was a Democrat and Unionville a Republi- can district. The voters and patrons of the school recognized his worth and he was always elected by a good majority. . Mr. McDonnell always stood in the front line with the foremost citizens of Unionville for every movement for the good of the town and that locali- ty. He was big-hearted, public-spir- ited and broad-minded, and his efforts to improve and upbuild conditions in his home town were entirely unselfish and directed to the public generally. In his social life Mr. Mec- Donnell was a most genial and com- panionable gentleman, and the circle of his friendship extended throughout central Pennsylvania. : Politically he was a Democrat and in the time of the old party conven- tions Pat McDonnell was always a fa- miliar figure at the gatherings, al- most invariably representing his dis- trict as a delegate. On several occa- sions he was sent as a delegate to state conventions. Like his ancestors before him Mr. McDonnell was a member of the Cath- olic church ahd he was always a faith- ful and devout attendant. On September 27th, 1881, he was united in marriage to Miss Mary Loughrey, of Snow Shoe Intersection, by Rev. Father McArdle, and the thir- ty years and more of their married life has been spent in Unionville. In addition to the bereaved wife the fol- lowing children survive: John, a train dispatcher located in Tyrone; James, who is a student at the Belle- fonte High school, and Mary, at home. Five children. preceded their father to the grave. He also leaves three sis- ters, Mrs. Berry, of Pittsburgh; Mrs. William McLaughlin and Miss Annie McDonnell, both of Altoona.

Pledge — Howard Chambers, nine-year- old son of County Treasurer and Mrs. David Chambers, of Clarence, was badly hurt last Wednesday when his pony ran away and threw him out of the cart into a barbed wire fence.

Boylike Howard insist- ed on his grandmother getting in the cart so he could ‘take her home. On the way a gust of wind blew a paper bag into the pony’s face and quick as 2 flash it wheeled, upset the cart and threw both Howard and his grand- mother to the ground. The boy was thrown into a barbed wire fence and sustained one cut on the face which required thirteen stitches to close, as well as several ugly minor cuts which may mark him for life. Mrs. Gotwald sustained a badly sprained ankle and some bad bruises, but no serious inju- ries. — On or about February 16th all traffic was suspended on the “Alle- popper” railroad, better known as the Pittsburgh and’ Susquehanna, running from Philipsburg to Fernwood, Clear- field county, and as a result thirty- one coal mines had to cease operations because they are all dependent on that road as their outlet to market. Congressman Charles H. Rowland is one of the principal owners of the road and financial difficulties were giv- en as the cause of the suspension of traffic. Satisfactory arrangements having been made passenger traffic was resumed on the “Allepopper” on Monday and freight traffic on Tues- day. BACK TO THE FARM.

The report of the war savings and thrift stamps campaign, for the week ending March 16th shows that Centre county was second for that week, and tenth for the entire campaign in the eastern district of Pennsylvania. We made a gain that week of thirty-three cents, and we now have a per capita of $1.83, but in order that Centre county may “go over the top,” we must have not less than 50 cents per capita every week until December 31st. Every man, woman and child in the county must save and loan these sav- ings to the government. Some are doing this now. Why should we not all do the same Think it over. If you have not already started, start now. Purchase war savings and thrift stamps from your nearest postmaster. Your chairman, with the co-opera- tion of your district chairman, which has been assured, will hold meetings in every section of the county. The issues concerning the world war, in zens, are especially interested, and those concerning the war savings and thrift stamps campaign, farm, food, fuel and Liberty bonds, will be fully discussed. Every person, within a reasonable distance, is urgently re- quested to attend these meetings. You cannot afford to miss them. Within a few weeks Mr. Edward C. Bendere, of Philadelphia, director for counties in the eastern district of Pennsylvania, will come to Bellefonte. Not only will every district chairman be expected to attend that meeting, but also every person interested in our government and the successful termination of the war. Resolve right now to do your whole duty, and to do it honestly; be patriot- ie in the full sense of the term; be- come enthusiastically interested in every cause wherein the government is concerned, and lend your personal interest and influence in the war sav- ings and thrift stamps campaign, and thereby make it possible for Centre county to head the list of all counties in the eastern district of Pennsylva- nia.
