FATHER AND SON BOTH DEAD.
The Result of Accident on Railroad
at Centre Lime Co. Quarries. ~ |
James E. Lutz, of Buffalo Run, and
both dead and buried as the result of
an accident on the narrow guage rail~
road at. the quarries of the Centre
County Lime company in Buffalo .ijjepe creamery. The creamery price’
‘paid for butter fat is $3.60 per hun-
Run valley, last Thursday even-
ing, and the tragedy is the climax
of a series of “hard luck happen-.
like a: pall over, the man’s life.
He had more than the usual amount |
of sickness in his family during the
a little over five years ago his home
burned to the ground with practically
everything he owned. A few weeks
later his wife sickened and died, leav- |
ing him “with four ‘small’ children.” He |
had since struggled along the best he |
could in an endeavor to keep a home
for his children, but with only his
thirteén yéar.old daughter to look
possible for
her to give the care and exercise the
proper authority over her little broth-
er Sherald. The result was the lad
would go from his home to the stone-
quarries where the father ran the
dinkey . engine, whenever’ he could
slip away, and this. was the case last
Thursday evening.’ <=
The boy had been sent home from
school because of not feeling very
well, but instead of going home had
gone to the lime quarries. The com-
pany had only recently purchased a
new dinkey engine and the lad longed
for a ride on it. His father tried to
induce him to go home but the boy
pléad so pathetically for just one ride
that the father couldnt resist and
took: him om his last: trip into the
quarries. The quarries at the Centre
Lime, company plant -are higher than
the kilns so that the loaded cars run,
down by gravity and the empties are
hauled up to the quarries by the din-
key.. Mr. Lutz took a string of emp-
ties up ‘to the ‘quarry : then * switched
onto the back end of a draft of loaded
cars and started to trail them down
to the kilns. Another draft of load-
ed. cars was started down on anoth-
er track but in some way got beyond
control ‘and ran in onto the same
track that Mr. Lutz was on. He had
almost reached the kilns and was al-
most at a standstill when he saw
the runaway cars bearing down upen
him at breakneck speed. Realizing
that they could not be stopped he first
jumped from the dinkey then think-
ing of his boy he ran to get him just
when the draft of cars struck the din-
key with terrific force. The father
was caught underneath the runaway
cars and had his left foot cut off
above the shoe top almost as clean as
if done with an axe. The impact of
the: loaded cars crushed the boiler of |
the little engine and the boy was ter-
ribly scalded by escaping steam.
‘A physician was hastily summoned
and as soon as possible both father
and son were brought to the Belle-
fonte hospital. The boy died within
an-hour after reaching that institu-
tion while the father passed away at
7:30 o'clock on Saturday evening.
James C. Lutz was a son of Mr. and
Mrs. William M. Lutz and was born
in"Buffalo Run valley on January lst,
1873, ‘hence was not quite forty-sev-
en years old. His entire life was
spent in the vicinity of his birth. He
leaves three young children, Russell
and Edward, living with their grand-
parents on the farm, and Mary, at
home... He is also survived by his par-
ley, one brother and two sisters,
namely: Charles E. Lutz, of Buffale
Run; Mrs. William Fye, of Hollidays-
burg, and Mrs. Malcolm Spicher, of
Buffalo Run. |
A double funeral was held at 2:30
o’clock on Monday afternoon. Revs.
H. F. Babcock and C. C. Shuey offici-
ated and burial was made in the Mey-
er’s cemetery. *

Hallowe’en Happenings.
The young people of Bellefonte are
to be congratulated upon the fact that
while they had their fun on Hallow-
e’en they refrained from that rough-
ness that so frequently characterizes
instance of the destruction of proper-
ty was reported at this office. A large
crowd of boys and girls, young men
and women and some that were not so
young paraded the streets early in
the evening until the rain chased all
but the most venturesome indoors,
and the thought was suggested that
how much nicer it would be if some
concerted effort was made to foster
the Hallowe’en spirit by having a big
parade and offering prizes for “bests”
in various costumes. Bellefonte has
never exerted itself toward anything |
of this kind but why not consider the
suggestion and carry it out next year.
‘In addition to the merrymakers on

This company was very hard to:
book for Bellefonte, but the manage-
ment of the star course, after consid-
erable effort, was able to arrange a“
Saturday evening date. The booking
of this company is in line with the
policy of the management, namely to
provide a strictly” first-class series of
entertainments for Bellefonte during
the coming winter. '
The sale of season tickets lags on
account of lack of interest, and past
experience with star courses in Belle-
fonte, but the management gives as-
surance that the course is strictly as
represented and first-class in every
respect.
Coming numbers are Newell
Dwight Hillis, a lecturer and author

ams and his company; this company
will be remembered by many Belle-

qua circuit. The Breed entertainers

Three Young Men in Aiito Accident.
| Last Friday evening Orvis Sholl,
| George Austin and Gilbert Haupt left
Bellefonte in Sholl’s Ford car to make
a run to Milesburg and back. Al-
‘thotigh it was almost nine ‘o’clock it
“The tri-county convention was or-: 0 happened that the shifter was in en
| the siding shifting a draft of cars to
{ the Armor Gap quarries. The engine
stopped at the Red Roost "with the
‘tendér halfway acress the road and
Sholl, who was driving the car, failed
te see:it until he wag too close to stop.
He swung sharply to the left in order
to get around the tender but the rear
end of the machine struck the tender
and was thrown around and overturn-
ed inte the old canal.
Fortunately none of ‘the young men
were caught beneath. the car although
Sholl and Austin were rendered un-
‘¢onscious. Shell was the first te re-
j cover and when he got up and came
i to rightly he found that he was very
little injured and got on the bus
which happened to pass about that
time and went on down to Milesburg.
Dr. Sebring brought the. other two
young. men. to Bellefonte. intending to
take them .to the hospital but an ex-
‘amination showed that their injuries
were only superficial and they were
taken to their respective homes. The
car was pretty badly wrecked.

Bre’r Rabbit Now in Season.
Rabbit shooting season opened on
Saturday and every section of the
county contributed its quota of hunt-
ers. As everybody knows who was
out, the weather on Saturday was not
| the most auspicious for any kind of
| hunting, but notwithstanding that
| fact quite a number of rabbits were
| bagged. In fact they are unusually
plentiful this year so that about all
the hunters had to do was go into a
| rabbit country and they were sure to
get one or more of the little animals.
One hunter was seen in Bellefonte
on Saturday with six squirrels and
| two pheasants, but he was not a Belle-
fonte man. He stated, however, that
he had seen quite a number of birds
. but got only the two. All of which
| shows that there is quite a bit of
| small game in the country if the
, hunters are able to get it.
| On the morning of election day
{John Curtin was out only a little
i while until he had bagged three
pheasants.
| That afternoon Charles Moersch-
bacher and Joseph Thal, probably the
best team of rabbit gunners in the
| town came in with eight cotton tails.
