Zimmerman, who spent several weeks in the Bellefonte hospital un- dergoing treatment, was able to be taken to his home at Pleasant Gap last week, having practically recover- ed with the exception of a little rheu- matic trouble in one of his legs. Mrs. Rachel Miller, of Pleasant Gap, who was quite seriously injured almost a month ago when a heavy barn door fell on her, is improving very nicely under the treatment she is receiving at the Bellefonte hospital and her condition now is such as to justify the belief in her permanent recovery. ——The executive committee of the Williams family reunion association met on Tuesday evening and decided to hold their annual reunion this year in the John Q. Miles grove at Martha on Saturday, August 21st. Every ar- rangement will be made to muke the reunion this year on a par with all former gatherings. The Shetland pony and cart owned for some years by Miss Oleta Hollobaugh, has been sold to a gentle- man at Williamsport and was shipped to him yesterday by express. Miss Hollobaugh won the pony and cart in a subscription campaign conducted by the Farm and Fireside a few years ago, and now has sold both For two hundred dollars. A freight wreck between Un- ionville and Julian last Friday even- ing blocked the track five hours or longer so that it was after one o’clock Saturday morning when the Friday evening 8:10 train reached Bellefonte. The accident was caused by a broken truck on a freight car which tore up the track several hundred feet. None of the freight crew were injured. Gregg Curtin left Bellefonte Wednesday night for Philadelphia and it will probably be a surprise to his many friends to learn that when he returns early next week he will bring back with him Mrs. Curtin, as he will be married at Lansdowne tomorrow to Mrs. Helen Chipley. The wedding will be the culmination of a friend- ship that has endured for fifteen years or longer. Naturally everybody in Centre county is anxious to know the condi- tion of J. Will Conley, of Bellefonte, who is ill in the University hospital, Philadelphia. An operation for his re- lief was performed on Wednesday and while the fact must be admitted that his condition is considered unusually grave he not only survived the opera- tion but word from Philadelphia yes- terday was that he was a little bright- er in the morning. Bellefonte is to have an Italian band. The music-loving natives of sunny Italy now residing in Belle- fonie and vicinity have alreadv iuken the preliminary steps for the organi- zation of the band and have aranged for the services of one of the best Italian musicians in the State as di- rector and teacher. The Watchman feels quite sure that everybody in Bellefonte will welcome the advent of the Italian band. — The opera house was crowded last Friday night by an audience anxious to see the motion pictures of the Twenty-eighth division in France as shown and explained by Capt C. P. Futcher, and the exhibition proved quite interesting. The only disap- pointment experienced by the many ex-soldiers and their friends was the fact that most of the pictures were of such long range that it was impos- sible to recognize individuals or troop organizations. — Announcement has been made of the fact that Ben F. Curry, of Pittsburgh, and Miss Abbie M. Cook, daughter of Mr. Charles F. Cook, of Bellefonte, will be married tomorrow at the home of Mr. Curry’s parents at Slippery Rock, Pa. Miss Cook has had charge of Mr. Curry’s two little children since the death of his first wife, who was her sister, on Febru- ary 27th, 1919. The wedding tomor- row will be a quiet affair, only im- mediate relatives being present. — St. John’s Episcopal Sunday school will hold its annual picnic at Hecla park on Thursday of next week, July 29th. The trip to and from the Park will be made by motor, cars leav- ing the parish house on west Lamb street at 10 a. m. The Episcopal churches of Lock Haven and State College will unite in this picnic and a great time is promised all who at- tend. Members and friends of St. John’s, adults as well as children, are invited to help make the picnic a suc- cess hy attending it. | | | | ! { ‘diately they Supended Upon Four Law Violators. Sentence Sheriff Harry Dukeman lost four of his prisoners from the county jail on Monday, but they ail got out through due process of law. The first man called before the bar of justice an- swered to the mame of Jeffries, but he doesn’t bear any resemblance to the redoubtable Jim. In fact he has only one arm, his name is Wilbur and he was in the clutches of the law on the charge of stealing an automobile. Jeffries worked in the Josiah Pritch- ard garage, at Philipsburg, and without saying “by your leave” he took the car of H. Adelman from the garage and drove it to the outskirts of Philipsburg where he left it stand by the roadside at the cemetery then boarded a train for Tyrone. He was caught and brought back to the Centre county jail. In addition to having only one arm Jeffries has a wife and baby and their presence in court was doubtless a good influence for him, as after hearing his story the court suspended sentence upon the payment of the costs and gave him three months in which to do it, then told him to go out and hustle for a job so he can keep his family, pay the costs within the stipulated time or he would be bought back and sentenc- ed. The next man up was Harper Reif- snyder, who admitted that he was one of the Reifsnyders of Millheim, but didn’t have any regular home now. He was arrested five weeks ago on complaint of Mr. Baldwin, of Cole- ville, who charged him with jumping a $21.00 board bill. In answer to questions by the court Reifsnyder stated that early in the summer he had been working as a carpenter in Williamsport where he drew down $8.50 per day, but that he had been compelled to lay off work two weeks on account of illness. He then came to Bellefonte and went to board at the Baldwins, but he did not work very steady and finally left owing them, according to the Baldwins, $21 board, though he claimed that it should be only $12.50. The court told Mr. Reifsnyder that he ought to be ashamed of himself to be able to earn $8.50 a day and then jump a $21 board bill. He then suspended sen- tence on condition that he go to work and pay the bill and costs within two months. The third case brought before the court was that of Clara Coble, of Oak Hall, who was charged with forg- ery. The forgery consisted of a check drawn by the girl in favor of Sue Watson and signed by Mrs. G. C. Meyers, which she cashed herself. It further developed that the girl, who worked at Candyland, State College, had first stolen a pocketbook contain- ing $16.00 from a Mrs. Ishler, then when confronted with the fact of her theft had forged the check to get money to pdy back what she had stolen. Other facts were brought to light which were not at all to the girl’s credit. The court candidly con- fessed that he was nonplussed to know what to do, not so much as a punish- ment of the girl for what she has done, but for her own good and pro- tection. Finally he agreed to permit her to return home for the present on the payment of costs and restitution of the amount of the check, but stip- ulated that the matron of the juven- ile court would visit the Coble home in the near future and her report of conditions there and the girl’s actions would determine the final disposition of the case. The last case called was that of Harry Burns, of Bellefonte, sentenced last January to pay a fine of $100, costs of prosecution and undergo im- prisonment in the county jail for a period of one year, after having plead- ed guilty to adultery. Burns has been a model prisoner and his attorney asked that his sentence be reduced. The court finally announced that he would remit the fine, grant him a discharge and give him three months in which to pay the costs, but cautioned him what he might expect if he is ever again brought before him on a simi- lar charge. Head Blown Off by Delayed Shot in Coal Mine. Mike Krosnovic, a Slavish coal min- er employed in mine No. 26 of the Lehigh Valley Coal company, near Snow Shoe, was instantly killed by a delayed shot on Monday morning which literally blew off his head. Mike and his “buddy” had placed twe shots and then went out of the mine and sat down on the railroad track to await the explosion. Almost imme- were joined by another miner who was working in an ad- joining heading in the same mine, al- most abutting into the one Krosnov- ic and his “buddy” were working, and who, too, had just placed a shot. But he failed to mention this latter fact to Mike and his companion, and when they heard two shots go off they nat- urally supposed they were their own. Mike at once started into the mine, accompanied by the mine superinten- dent, but a workman called to the lat- ter and he stopped to see what was wanted, Mike continuing on his way. Just as he reached his cutting there was another terrific explosion and his head was literally blown from his body. The two explosions that occur- red first was one of the two shots put in by Mike and his companion and the shot put in by the other miner, while Mike was killed by the delayed shot in his own cutting. He was about fifty-seven years old and leaves a wife in Snow Shoe and one brother in Johnstown. He owned his own home and was a steady, in- dustrious worker. Burial was made at Snow Shoe on Wednesday. i ' 1 1 i | The second, “The Market —__ Between twenty-five and thirty Golden Wedding Made Occasion of | ministers from central and northern | | counties of Pennsylvania are now in| attendance at the ministers’ confer- ence being held at State College and which will continue all of next week. According to some of the ministers in attendance the conference is not only a diversion from the routine life of a minister but is extremely inter- esting. The time is not all spent in the study or discussion of theology and the bible, but the program in- cludes various demonstrations at the College including gardening, horti- culture, chicken raising and various other outdoor experiments shown at the College. cussed are such as community health | and morals, the relation of the preach- er to Sunday schools and public schools, etc., while the ministers ex- change notes of conditions in their dif- ferent parishes on how their work is progressing. They are also interest- ing lectures on various topics by able speakers. Health Series. The second series of the State health lessons are now being publish- ed in the Watchman. The first one on “Milk” was published last week. Basket,” appears this week and the others will be as follows: : August 6—“Hands.” August 20—“Teeth.” September 10—*“Measles.” September 24—“A Letter from a School Teacher to Her Friend.” Plenty of Sugar. Three carloads of sugar reached Bellefonte within the last ten days. One carload, twenty tons, was receiv- ed by Cohen & Co., who sold it at $26.50 per hundred pounds, or 27 cents a pound in less than one hun- dred pound lots, trouble getting rid of the sugar, as the retail price in other stores was 30 and 31 cents a pound. According to all reports there is an abundance of sugar in the country now and always has been, and there was never at any time any legitimate excuse for a sugar scare or the high price consumers have been compelled to pay. The sugar was simply with- held from the market by unscrupu- lous dealers for the sole purpose of running up the price for their own benefit, and now that the price is up and the new crop will soon be com- ing in the holders of the sugar are un- loading; and the result is that an ample quantity of sugar can be secured by anybody who has the money to pay the price. She Knew it Wasn't “The House.” Lord’s On Saturday about one hundred and fifty school teachers who are taking the summer course at State College made an excursion in automobiles and motor busses to the Burnside farm on the top of Muncy mountain and, of course, Mr. William Burnside did the elegant by acting as host and guide to the various points of vantage on the mountain top. Of course, among the places of interest he piloted them to was the House of Lords, from where they had a magnificent view of Buffalo Run valley. To put the teach- ers right in recalling their visit in the future Mr. Burnside called atten- tion to the fact that the comfortable cabin was not the “Lord’s House” but the “House of Lords,” when very promptly a demure and petite teach- er who had made a tour of inspection for herself replied: “It’s quite appar- ent that it isn’t the Lord’s House; I’ve been inside.” But they didn’t allow a little thing like that to mar the pleasure of their trip as every one of them marveled at the magnificent view from the House of Lords and after they had ex- patiated at length on the beautiful scenery they all returned to the Burn- side farm and ate their lunch on the little plateau surrounding the cool and limpid spring almost on the mountain top. So pleased were the professors and teachers that they asked permis- sion to make the pilgrimage an an- nual affair. New Court Instituted. A new court of the national order of the Daughters of Isabella was in- stituted in Williamsport last Sunday. Miss Frances Maher, of Kane, state grand regent, presided. The beau- ties of the first degree were illustrat- ed to members of the new court by the Renovo team, with grand reg- ent Miss Hazel McGuire in charge. Grand Regent Mrs. Odillie Mott with her sixteen officers of Patrick McArdle court No. 448, of Bellefonte, exempli- fied the second degree, Fathers Cos- tello and Angio assisting. A class of one hundred candidates had the duties revealed to them with one hundred and twenty-five visitors, Kane, Lock Haven, Renovo and Belle- fonte being represented, thirty-five of | the number being Bellefonte ladies. The new court will be known as Our Lady of Victory Court, No. 523, with Mrs. Frank E. Reilley as grand regent. The’ Williamsport ladies en- tertained all the visitors at the Park hotel to a platter dinner while lunch was served in the Odd Fellows Temple dining room, the main room being used for the work and reception. As the Knights of Columbus of that city will not get possession of their beauti- ful sixty thousand dollar home until September first it was impossible to use their hall. The Knights were very gallant in escorting the visiting ladies to and from the trains and hall, which was taken as evidence of their generous spirit. Among questions dis- | and they had no’ Another Wedding. Surrounded by their children and grandchildren and more than one | hundred invited guests, Mr. and Mrs. Henry W. Gingrich celebrated the gol- | den anniversary of their marriage last Friday evening at their very com- fortable home on Cedar creek. The event was scheduled to take place at program was a most sumptuous din- ner which was served on the spacious lawn in front of the house. The table decorations were white and gold and the menu of good things to eat con- sisted of about everything the sea- | son afforded. : Following the meal the guests were treated to a little surprise when Miss Ellen Hassell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. P. Hassel, of State College, and a grand daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gingrich presented herself as the first bride of the evening and was united in marriage to Malcolm Smith, of State College. The bride looked extremely lovely in a gown of white silk with a chiffon veil and white wreath on her head in lieu of a hat. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. W. Long, pastor of the Methodist church at State College, the ring ser- vice being used. In commemoration of their golden wedding Mr. and Mrs. Gingrich stood up as attendants and repeated the vows with the young couple. The bride was given in mar- riage by her uncle, Jerome Gingrich. An impromptu serenade was given Mr. and Mrs. Smith by a band of cal- lithumpians and later the young couple left on a brief wedding trip i prior to locating at Syracuse, N. Y. It might here be mentioned that both Mr. Smith and his bride enjoy quite a reputation as musicians and both will be missed in the musical circles at State College. | The marriage of Miss Hassell and , Mr. Smith for a part of the evening at least, overshadowed the principal event, but for all that the celebration | in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Gingrich’s golden anniversary was a perfect success. So perfect in fact that among the many presents received by that most estimable couple was a ipurse of fifty dollars in gold, not counting the donation of those long green strips that counts as currency with your Uncle Samuel. Mr. Gingrich, by the way, was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Christian Ging- rich, pioneer residents of Harris town- ship, where he first saw the light of day on January 16th, 1848, so that he is now in his seventy-third year. Mrs. Gingrich was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Stover and was born at Rock Springs, July 12th, 1850, so | that she is two years her husband’s junior. On July 16th, 1870, they were married at Logansville and for many years have resided in their present home which has long been noted for its open-hearted.. hospitality, pretty girls and good ny i 7 BS i Mr. and Mrs. Gingrich were the parents of ten children, six of whom survive, as follows: Mrs. P. P. Hassel, of State College; Earl, Jerome, Arene, Bertha and Rose at home. They have one grandson and one granddaughter. It was a late hour Friday night when the many guests departed wish- ing Mr. and Mrs. Gingrich many more | years of a happy, healthy life. Carper—Miller.—John E. Carper, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Carper, of Linden Hall, and Miss Harriet I. Mil- ler, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Miller, of College township, were united in marriage in the parlors of the Bush house, Bellefonte, at 10:30 o'clock on Wednesday mniworning, by {Rev S. C. Stover, pastor of the Re- formed church at Boalsburg. Mr. and Mrs. Carper will spend a few days among friends in Centre county be- fore going to Cleveland, Ohio, to lo- cate permanently, wher: Mr. Carper helds a good position in a big steel plant. An amusing incident ha pened just after Rev. Stover pronounced the words that united the two young peo- ple in the bonds of matrimony that is a little too good to leave untold. It is Rev. Stover’s unfailing custom to present all couples for whom he offi- ciates with a certificate and naturally he did not intend t> moke an excep- tion in this case, but when he unrolled the certificate for the purpese of iiiling in the names, etc., what must have been his consternation to discover that in his hurry in leaving home he had gotten the wrong paper and instead of a marriage certificate that was dis- | (loced to view it was a baptism certi- | feate. | — i ——— Brick Plants Amalgamated. { Announcement has been made of | the amalgamation of the Queen’s Run { Fire Brick company, of Lock Haven; | the West Branch Fire Brick company, | of Renovo, and the North Bend Fire | Brick company, of North Bend, into | one big organization to be known as | the Queen’s Run Refractories com- | pany of Lock Haven.

Eleven months ago he and his wife left on a tour of Europe and have covered principal points in China, Japan and all of continential Hurope. The only country they could not get into was Egypt, and travelers have so far been kept out of that country. \ |
