BIG HALLOWEEN JUBILEE.
Rousing Demonstration to be Held in
Bellefonte Monday Evening, No-
vember 1st.
| Bellefonte is to have a rousing big
| Hallowe'en demonstration this year,
| and because Hallowe’en falls on Sun-
| day night the jubilee will be held on
| Monday evening, November 1st. This
fact was definitely decided upon at a
meeting held at the Elk’s club on
Monday evening at which time com-
mittees were appointed and prelimi-
nary arrangements made fora. big
time, the likes of which has never be-
fore been attempted in Bellefonte.
John M. Shugert was selected as
chairman of the general committee
with G. W. Rees chairman of the Fi-
nance committee; Homer P. Barnes
chairman of the Decoration commit-
tee, and William H. Brown chairman
of the Parade committee.
Naturally the parade will be the big
feature of the evening and the plans
as outlined now include cash prizes,
first and second, for the most patriot-
ic costume, male and female; the best
fancy costume, male and female; the
most comical costume, male and
female; the best characterization of
any well known character—national
state or local; the best costume got-
ten up by a High school or Bellefonte
Academy student; the best costume
from the grades or parochial school;
‘the best float, etc., while various
merchants will offer prizes for indi-
vidual efforts of those who take part,
so that there will be plenty of induce-
ment for both old and young to take a
very active interest in the parade. A
full list of the prizes, route of parade,
ete., will be published next week, and
as evidence that there will be no par-
tiality in the awards the following
well known gentlemen and ladies have
been selected to act as judges: Judge
Henry C. Quigley, ex-Judge Ellis L.
Orvis, Col. W. Fred Reynolds, A. Linn
McGinley, Miss Helen E. C. Overton,
Miss Mary Gray Meek, Mrs. Elizabeth
Callaway, Mrs. John N. Lane and
Miss Mary Blanchard.
Two bands have already been secur-
ed for the evening, the I. O. O. F.
band, of Bellefonte, and Wetzler’s
band, of Milesburg, while it is just
possible others will also be in line.
And just here we want to lay partic-
ular stress upon the fact that the big
demonstration is not to be confined to
residents of Bellefonte. It is to be a
free pitch in for everybody. Miles-
burg and Pleasant Gap have already
agreed to send big delegations to
Bellefonte and other towns as well as
the surrounding community are invit-
ed to participate. The parade will be
the big feature, and it will take place
about eight o’cleck in the evening.
Following the parade there will be
block dancing on the newly-paved por-
tion of Bishop street, between Alle-
gheny and Spring streets, the music

the construction work on the improve-
ments to three of the highways lead-
ing into Bellefonte. A month or so
ago, due to bad weather conditions
and delays in receiving materials, it
looked as if we would have to go
thromgh another winter without hav-
ing any of them completed. Now the
prospect is much more hopeful.
With a continuation of this fine
weather contractor Murphy will com-
plete the Bishop and Pine street pav-
ing by the middle of next week. This
will throw all that section into use and
connect Pine street up with the new
State College and Lewistown high-
way. It has been completed through
to the old Barnes toll-gate above
Pleasant Gap which is as far as the
asphaltum covering will go. From
there to the “watering trough” on the
mountain the road is to be of side-hill
brick, which will require a lighter
base than was laid for the asphaltum.
No work will be done on the mountain
[this fall. The asphaltum has now
been laid to the “black barn” and with
good weather for a few days longer
will be completed to Pleasant Gap so
that both the Rishel hill and Gap
roads to the College are assured for
uninterrupted use.
The Bald Eagle road from Miles-
burg to the Intersection will probably
fail of completion this fall. There is
no need, however, of making the long
eight-mile detour through Moose Run
in going up and down the valley. A
short detour through Kohlbecker’s
orchard above Milesburg has been
opened so that now the valley road is
really in use clear through to Tyrone.
The Bush House Will Open a Res-
taurant.
Last Saturday night the old Bush
House bar breathed its last. No long-
er will the genial, corpulent form of
boss mixologist, Daily Justice, be seen
in a setting of polished mahogany and
cut glass. The days of “What will it
be boys?” as you put your foot on the
rail and looked dry, are over.
The bar room is now being re-ar-
ranged and decorated for use as a res-
taurant which will be open from 5:30
a. m. to 12 midnight. The same serv-
ice as that of a regular dining room
will be given in the restaurant, which
will be opened about November 1st.

Three More Colored Prisoners Escape.
On Monday evening James W. Her-
ron, of the western penitentiary, was
luxuriating in an easy chair at his
home in this place when there was a
call on his telephone and he was in-
formed that two colored prisoners who |
had escaped from the Rockview insti-
tution in the neighborhood of two
years ago had been caught that day
in Omaha, Neb., and would be return-
ed to the penitentiary. He was in the
act of patting himself on the back
over the good news when there was
another telephone call and he was in-
formed that three other colored pris-
oners had just made their escape from
the pen.
The three men got away after sup-
per and while no trace of them could
be found on Tuesday on Wednesday
they were reported as being on Mun-
cy mountain and prison officials and
state constabs put forth every effort
to round them up but failed. Wednes-
day night Clarence Rine and several
other men were engaged in loading a
car of matches at the plant of the
Pennsylvania Match company when a
strange negro stuck his head into the
car door. He was without a hat or
cap and from the usual description
sent out wore the customary prison
garb. Just what the intentions of the
man were will never be known, be-
cause as soon as he saw that more
than one man was at work there he
took to his heels and ran down the
railroad, disappearing in the dark-
ness. Of course it is generally believ-
ed that the man was one of the es-
caped prisoners, but he didn’t stop
long enough to be personally intro-
duced.
TWO CAUGHT.

man.

| The Democratic Rally a Rousing |
Success.
Women comprised nearly half of
the crowded audience that greeted the
speakers at the rally for Cox, Reose-
velt, the League of Nations and peace,
held in the court house here on Wed-
nesday evening.
Jt was an epochal meeting in lo-
cal politics. The old time zip and
hurrah was gone. It was a genteel,
thoughtful, appreciative audience that
had come to hear issues discussed that
are far beyond the prejudices of par-
tisanship. There is in the minds of
forward looking people today little
real care as to which party has the of-
fices, for after all that is really back
of most partisanship. People who
think are wondering today as to what
governmental heritage they will have
to hand to their children tomorrow
and probably that thought was upper-
most in the minds of the majority of
those who heard Judge Goodale, of
Washington, and Mrs. R. Fleming Al-
len, of Williamsport.
Judge Goodale is an independent
Republican, a judge of the courts of
the State of Washington, who has
come east to carry the message of his
convictions on the desirability of the
League. His discourse was wholly ju-
dicial, presented in the simplest and
| most convincing manner, much after
i the fashion of a charge from the
bench. The Judge roused his audience
to great enthusiasm when he referred
to the proneness of us all to forget the
real achievements of the present ad-
| ministration. He said: “As an Inde-
pendent I would be untrue to myself,
unjust to the great mind that is di-
recting the affairs of our nation if I
did not say that for real, constructive
beneficial legislation the first four
vears of President Wilson’s adminis-
tration will be recorded in history,
vea, within the lives of most of you,
as having been without parallel in the
history of the world.” Such a state-
ment coming from an Independent Re-
publican thrilled the Democrats, es-
pecially, in the audience and was
greeted with prolonged applause.
Mrs. Allen, a winsome, attractive
young matron followed Judge Goodale
with a forty-five minute talk that sim-
ply charmed her hearers. In a clever
woman’s way, without malice yet with
biting force at times she argued for
Cox and the League from many new
and convincing angles. At all times
she held the interest of the vast gath-
ering and when she concluded even
the men expressed regret that she had
| not talked longer.
| Mrs. Allen’s father was once 2a
| Methodist preacher at Centre Hall.
Her maiden name was Bennington.
Her sister assisted Col. J. L. Spangler
in the conduct of an Academy at that
place. Later the family moved south
so that she was born below the Ma-
son and Dixon line and came back to
| Pennsylvania to marry as a Democrat.
a
meeting James D. Connelly, of Clear-
field, the Democratic candidate for
Congress in this district, was intro-
duced. Mr. Connelly is one of the ed-
itors of the Clearfield Progress, a pa-
per started and conducted primarily in
the interest of the working classes,
and having come up from the ranks
himself his heart is still in the right
place, and that is the principal reason
of his candidacy, a fact he made plain
in the few minutes he spoke on Wed-
nesday evening when he said that it
was high time that the laboring man
and the great body of so termed com-
mon people had representation in Con-
gress, and that is what he proposed to
give them.
chairman Gray and the party to be
proud of. In fact, as we looked it
over and considered the intellectual
it we thought there was very much
‘truth in Mrs. Allen’s declaration to
some of her friends who were pitying
her for being a Democrat in Pennsyl-
vania, when she replied: “I am proud
to be a Democrat in this State, for all
know that we stand for something
more than machine politics.”
Badly Injured by Fall Into Juniata
River.
Mrs. William Kirk, of Hammond,
Ind., a sister of borough manager
James D. Seibert, of Bellefonte, was
badly injured on Saturday evening
when she accidentally tumbled down
the embankment into the Juniata riv-
er at the Tyrone station. Mrs. Kirk
had been in Philipsburg visiting her
brother, Frank Seibert, and sister,
Mrs. Nannie Kerstetter, and was on
her way to Bellefonte to visit her
brother James.
She left Philipsburg Saturday
morning and went to Tyrone but
missed the Pennsylvania-Lehigh com-
ing to Bellefonte at noon. In the
evening she returned to the Tyrone
depot about 6:30 o’clock and under the
supposition that the Bellefonte train
departed from the Lehigh station
started to walk across the small patch
of lawn between it and the main de-
pot. It was quite dark at the time
and she failed to see the embankment
with the result that she walked over
the edge and tumbled down into the
Juniata river, a distance of at least
twenty-five feet. Her cries attracted
the attention of passersby who noti-
fied railroad officials and the woman
was quickly rescued from her perilous
position and removed to the Pennsyl-
vania station. . First aid was promptly
administered after which Mrs. Kirk
was sent to the Altoona hospital.
There it was found that her right
wrist was broken in two places, her
left wrist fractured and a painful
bruise on her forehead. While her in-
juries are serious her recovery is an-
ticipated.

— The Hon. Charles H. Rowland was in
Bellefonte Saturday. Mr. Rowland had
been quite ill during much of the summer;
in fact so many tales as to his condition
reached this place that his many friends
here had genuine alarm, hence the pleas-
ure at seeing him looking quite himself
again. We know that he is himself, for on
the occasion of a short call at the “Watch-
man” office he started right in to give the
paper 1 for being so Democratic and
then wanted to pay for it ten years in ad-
vance because he likes everything else
about it so much. If that kind of carryin’
on isn’t a sign that the former Congress-
man is just the same delightfully, face-
tious gentleman he has always been we'll
quit the newspaper business and get into
something there's money in, as he suggest-
ed. A man can’t be himself if he isn’t fair-
ly well and Charley was sO nearly that on
Saturday that if he is wasting much mon-
ey on doctor bills he's doing it merely to
kid the profesh along.
