the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hash-
anah).
— The woodcock season opened
on Wednesday but Centre county
hunters are keeping their eye on Oc-
tober 20th, when the squirrel season
will open. So far, however, these
frisky little animals have not been
seen in great numbers.
F. P. Blair & Son have been
very busy this week fixing up the

Rev. A. B. Sprague, who at the
recent annual conference of the Unit-
ed Brethren church at Tyrone was re-
assigned to the Milton church, has re-
signed his pastorate and will relire

The farm belonging to the
Henry Rothrock estate near Nigh
bank was sold at public sale at the
court house on Friday afternoon sub-
ject to a mortgage of $4,000.77, and
was purchased by Mrs. Jennie Roth-
rock, wife of James Rothrock, the
present occupant, for $5,250 in addi-
tion to the mortgage, or a total of
$9,250.77. The farm contains about
eighty acres.
Sixty foot steel observation
towers are to be erected by the State
on the different forest reservations as
a part of the forest fire protection
service. One of the towers will be lo-
cated on the top of Big Poe mountain,
near Coburn, this county. The tow-
ers will be: sixty feet high, have 'en-
closed cabins and will be so : located
that they will command a view of
many miles in all directions.
Last Saturday evening almost
two hundred guests attended the sil-
ver wedding anniversary of Mr. and
Mrs. William Decker, at Montgom-
ery, Lycoming county, and an inter-
esting feature of the gathering was
the announcement of the engagement
of their daughter, Miss Vivian Deck-
er, to Claude B. Aikens, son of Dr.
Charles T. Aikens, of Selinsgrove,
but formerly residents of Pine Grove
Mills, Centre county. 9
The building of the state high-
way between Bellefonte and Pleasant
Gap has necessitated the changing of
so many poles of the Bell Telephone
company of Pennsylvania that the of-
ficials of that company have decided
to do away with their old wires and
will string a one-hundred wire cable
from Bellefonte to Pleasant Gap. The
cable was received last week and
work on the new line will be begun
soon in order to get it completed this
fall.
Wednesday was the first day of
October and in the old days of city
steam that would be the day for turn-
ing on the heat, if the company was
in shape to turn it on, and then they
would see just how many repairs they
would have to make where the pipes
had rusted out along the street.
There was much growling and inward
eussin’ those days, but most of the
old steam heat users would be only
too glad to go back to that means of
comfort if they had the chance.
Mr. and Mrs. J. Thomas Mitch-
ell, who have been away from Belle-
fonte since the month of August, at
first visiting Mrs. Mitchell’s friends
in Indianapolis, but spending most of
the time with Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm
A. Mitchell, at Greenwood, Miss., are
expected home early this month to ar-
range some personal matters and put
their house in order for an early re-
turn south. They have decided to
spend the winter in Mississippi, and
it is just possible that when they
leave Bellefonte again it will be for
good and they will make the south
their permanent abiding place.
The scarcity of apples in Cen-
tre county will make it quite difficuit
for those farmers who do have a little
of the fruit to get some of it made in-
to cider. The Bierlys at Milesburg,
have abandoned the operation of their
cider mill and Wallace White will not
operate his mill at Axe Mann because
there are so few apples for cider
making that it will not justify the
expense or trouble connected with
putting it in shape and paying a man
to operate it. There is an old cider
press down at Hecla but whether it
ean be put in shape for operation is
not known. There is a mill near Le-
mont and one at Struble, but whether
they will be operated is a question.
So that the outlook for any quantity of
cider this year to store away as a
thirst-quencher is not at all promis-
ing.

A BIG BOCHE “77” COMING.
Captured German Gun Secured for
Bellefonte by W. Harrison Walker.
One of the German “77” guns that
did so much execution in the world
war but which was put out of busi-
ness as an effective weapon when it
was captured by American soldiers in
the famous Argonne drive, is now on
its way to Bellefonte as an historical
memento of that great strife between
nations, and will be placed at some
spot in the town where coming gen-
erations can view it.
The gun, which was shipped from
the United States arsenal at Newark,
N. J., on Monday, is being sent here
through the individual and persistent
solicitation of W. Harrison Walker,
Esq., chairman of Group 3, war sav-
ings committee of the Third Federal
district. Six months ago, when Mr.
Walker first learned that the guns
captured from the Germans by Amer-
ican soldiers would be brought to this
country and a certain portion of them
distributed as trophies throughout
the United States, he immediately got
busy and took the matter up with
Congressman Evan J. Jones. But he
made little headway in that direction
so made a personal appeal to Gover-
nor Passmore, chairman of the Third
Federal Liberty loan district, and al-
so to E. McLain Watters, chairman
of the Eastern district of war sav-
ings. By plugging away and keeping
everlastingly at it Mr. Walker was
finally rewarded by the recent receipt
of a letter in which it was stated that
the War Department had allotted
three captured German cannon to the
Third Federal district and that one
of them would be sent to him for
Bellefonte.
Even then the news seemed almost
too good to be true and Mr. Walker
refrained from making the announce-
ment public until Tuesday when he
received the shipping receipt show-
ing that the gun and carriage were
on their way. The German “77” is a
gun about five feet in length and
shoots a cartridge a fraction over
three inches in diameter. ‘When it ar-
rives in Bellefonte the next question
will be for a suitable place to locate
‘it. Of course there are any number
of places where the gun might be lo-
cated, but the place selected should
be out in the open where the public
can see it. And it should be proper-
ly mounted on a pedestal where it
can be viewed alike by young and
old.
Aerial Mail Interrupted by Low
: Visibility.
The aerial mail between New York
and Chicago was interrupted on Wed-
nesday by weather conditions, not-
withstanding the efforts of the var-
ious pilots to get through. Pilot Rob-
inson, who left New York early in the
morning for Bellefonte was forced to
come down at Kempton, a small town
near Allentown, on account of the
extremely low visibility. The same
condition prevailed west and while
the mail got through from Chicago to
Cleveland conditions were such there
that it was considered unsafe to start
east.
In the meantime along about noon
it cleared up somewhat in the eastern
part of the State and pilot Robinson
took ‘the air at Kempton and manag-
ed to get through to Bellefonte,
reaching here along abont the mid-
dle of the afternoon. Pilot Kra-
der then undertook to take the mail
through to Cleveland but when he
reached Bald Eagle valley he couldn’t
sea the Allegheny mountains for
clouds and he was forced to return to
Bellefonte. Out at Cleveland it clear-
ed up beautifully at noontime and the
sun came out like a summer day, so
pilot Max Miller decided to make the
trip east to Bellefonte, but at Clear-
field he met up with such dense and
low-hanging clouds that he was com-
pelled to come down there. He land-
ed safely, however, without damaging
his machine in the least.
© AVIATION NOTES.
On Monday the people of Snow
Shoe held an aviation day and pilot
Gilbert B. Budwig went out and not
only gave some exhibition stunts but
took up several Snow Shoe people for
an aero ride. He took with him to
Snow Shoe Mr. W. C. Snyder, who
came in that morning especially to fly
out to his home locality. Pilot Bud-
wig remained in Snow Shoe on Tues-
day and took up a few passengers, re-
turning to Bellefonte Tuesday even-
ing.
While testing out a plane on Mon-
day pilot Krader succeeded in attain-
ing an altitude of fourteen thousand
feet, the highest yet made at this sta-
tion.
Coming into Bellefonte last Friday
morning from New York pilot Robin-
son’s motor went dead when he was
in sight of the Bellefonte field but he
was not able to manouvre the plane
so as to land on the field and was
compelled to come down in the field
near Curtin’s woods. He made a good
landing but had hardly stopped until
he saw flames licking up around his
motor. But the men at the field had
also seen the flames and a number of
them ran to the plane with pyrene
When the excitement was over one of
Budwig’s mechanics picked a four leaf
clover right under the plane beneath
the pilot’s seat, and he immediately
presented it to pilot Robinson.

— George Pearson, prothonotary
of the Supreme court of Pennsylva-
nia and who was private secretary to
General James A. Beaver during his
four years as Governor of Pennsylva-
nia, was killed by the train in Ren-
nordale, a suburb of Pittsburgh,
some time Saturday afternoon or
evening, his body being found early
Sunday morning. Mr. Pearson was
sixty-nine years old and spent many
years in the newspaper business in
Mercer county.
—— While the strike of steel work-
ers has not affected Bellefonte so far
as men quitting work is concerned it
may indirectly throw some men out
of work. As an example: The Titan
Metal company recently received a
very nice order from the Bethlehem
Steel company and were planning to
push work at their plant in this place.
But last week when word was sent
out that a strike would be called at
the Bethlehem company’s plants on
Monday of this week, that company
at once cancelled their order with the
Titan company. But as it looks now
there will be no strike at the Bethle-
hem plants and the order will likely
me re-instated soon.

tended the reunion of the survivors
of the 45th regiment at State College
last week was comrade W. A. Rob-
erts, of Washington, D. C., but who
will be better remembered by Centre
county soldiers as a brother of the
late Al. Roberts, the celebrated drum-
mer. Comrade Roberts was on his
way home from attending the nation-
al encampment of the G. A. R. at Co-
rumbus, Ohio, where he carried the
colors the entire distance of a long
march through a drenching rain, and
this notwithstanding the fact that he
is eighty-one years old. Mr. Roberts
is employed in the government print-
ing office at Washington and despite
his age sets type at the case and cor-
racts galley proofs of machine com-
position. :
Chicken thieves are reported as
becoming active in Bellefonte. Just
at this tirae, when there is an abun-
dance of work for everybody who
wants to work and will work, with
wages higher than they have ever
been before, there is absolutely no ex-
cuse for any man resorting ‘to rob-
bery to make a living. And the man
who does it must be devoid of even a
single spark of manhood—a low-
down, thieving sneak who deserves
no more consideration than a veno-
mous reptile. The “Watchman” is no
advocate of murder but a good, big
load of buckshot rightly placed in the
anatomy of any individual found
sneaking around a hen house where
he has no business would not be out
of place.
The Gaylord International En-
gineering and Construction company
have added an endless belt conveyor
to their equipment for putting down
concrete on the State highway be-
tween Bellefonte and Pleasant Gap.
The conveyor takes the place of about
two dozen wheelbarrows and the men
to handle them. It is equipped with a
gasoline engine and operated by trac-
tion power. There are two dump cars
for stonc¢, one for sand and one for
finely ground stone, and as fast as
they are filled the conveyor is run to
the mixer and dumped. The concret-
ing crew is now around the sharp
curve beyond Prossertown and mak-
ing fair progress. The water neces-
sary to mix the concrete is pumped
from Spring creek and for this pur-
pose a portable gasoline pump is
used. The mixer for the granolithic
asphaltum top dressing is now here
and as soon as the concrete gang is
well on the way to Axe Mann anoth-
er gang will be put to work putting
on the asphalt so that when complet-
ed the road can be opened to traffic as
far as Axe Mann.,

— Unheralded and unsung by any
advance announcement Louis Masul-
lo and Tony Quoranto, two of Belle-
fonte’s foreign born soldiers, return-
ed home last Saturday and not oniy
their fellow citizens but Americans
as well could not help but feel just a
little justifiable pride in the young
men, as they both wore on their left
shoulder the green cord showing that
they had been the recipients of the
distinguished service citation of the
French army. The young Italians
were called into the service under the
selective service act and left Belle-
fonte for Camp Lee in July, 1918.
They were sent across in September
and were assigned as replacement
troops inthe 28th regiment, First di-
vision of regulars. They saw a
month or six week’s hard fighting and
were in France all told three months
then went into Germany as a part of
the army of occupation. Nine months
were spent there and finally they
came home with the First division,
paraded behind General Pershing in
Washington last week, were dis-
charged on Friday and returned on
Saturday. Before going into the
service Masullo was a fireman at one
of the kilns of the American Lime &
Stone company and he hopes to get
his old job back again.
Bellefonte Trust Company Purchas-
ed Reynolds Block.
The deal was closed on Tuesday |
whereby the Bellefonte Trust com-
pany became the purchaser of the
Reynolds block on the southeast cor-
ner of the Diamond, where the Trust
company is now located. The purch-
ase price was $40,000, and posses-
sion will be given the company by
Col. W. Fred Reynolds, the late own-
er, on November first. The purchase
of the building has been contemplat-
ed by the Trust company for some
time. In fact negotiations have been
under way the past month or six
weeks.
The Trust company will remodel
and change the building throughout.
It has outgrown its present banking
quarters and among the tentative
plans already formulated the room
now occupied by the Index stationery
store will be taken over entire and
merged into the present room occu-
pied by the company. This will af-
ford ample space for the new fixtures
and furniture which will be installed,
and will also afford space for a pri-
vate waiting room for ladies, which
will be equipped with lavatory and
toilet facilities. There will also be
private banking rooms and a private
room for men only, aside from bank-
ing rooms. This room will be open
to men who desire a convenient place
in which to discuss or transact busi-
ness between themselves, will be en-
tirely apart from the banking busi-
ness and will be open to the public
generally.
The third floor of the building, now
occupied by the Knights of Columbus,
will be converted into flats for living
purposes. Just what will be done
with the second floor has not yet been
decided. Trust company officials are
now in communication with a New
York architect regarding plans and
specifications for the remodeling of
-the building and until these are
worked out in detail definite an-
nouncement as to all the changes that
will be made cannot be given. It will
probably be six months before the
proposed changes can be begun, and
then they will be so elaborate that it
is very likely that the Trust company
will be compelled to hunt another lo-
cation for itself in which to do busi-
ness while the work is in progress.
This will be necessary because of the
changes in the present banking room
which will include a new vault for the
use of the bank and a new safety de-
posit vault.

E. G. Henderson Got a Six Cents
Verdict.
E. G. Henderson, proprietor of the
Howard hotel, is now in the same
class with Henry Ford, at least in
some respects. Henry got a verdict
of six cents damages from the Chica-
go Tribune and Mr. Henderson was
awarded six cents damages in his
trespass case against the Pennsylva-
nia Railroad company by a Centre
i county jury last week. Two years
ago when the railroad company im-
proved the railroad through Bald Ea-
gle valley they moved the track a
short distance toward the hotel. Mr.
Henderson claimed that the road had
infringed upon his property and an
amicable adjustment of the damages
could not be reached.
The result was Mr. Henderson
brought an action in trespass to re-
cover what he termed equitable dam-
ages. The case was on trial three
days last week and quite a number of
witnesses were heard on both sides,
the jury returning a verdict in favor
of the plaintiff for six cents. The
verdict, of course, carries the costs
with it, and they will be between
two and three hundred. dollars, not
counting, attorney’s fees.

Candidates’ ‘Expense Accounts.
To get on one of the leading tickets
as a nominee for office this year was
not very expensive for some of the
candidates as more than half of them
have filed affidavits that their expens-
es were less than fifty dollars, and
some of them are very prominent of-
fices, too. In the list of less than
fifty dollar men are E. R. Taylor,
George H. Yarnell, J. Frank Smith,
Frank Sasserman, John J. Bower,
James C. Furst, Harry N. Meyer,
James E. Harter, D. Wagner Geiss,
Herbert Stover, W. H. Fry and Har-
ry Austin.
On the other hand getting the nom-
ination for County Treasurer on the
Republican ticket was the most ex-
pensive contest of any, both for the
man who won out and for the loser.

than fifty dollars as filed in the pro-
thonotary’s office are as follows:
