Weather prophets are predict-

day of the inauguration. If it comes
it will not mean much of a disappoint-

the national capital to see the new
President ushered in.

ing the verdict.
— In the “Watchman’s” item last
week regarding the Bellefonte Acade-
my minstrels the wrong dates were
iven, the correct dates being May
‘19th and 20th. This little error, how-
.ever, will not detract from the fact
. that the minstrels are planning to give
-#he best entertainment this year in
the history of the Academy. And the
fact that it is to be given for the ben-
efit of the Bellefonte firemen is suf-
ficient reason why the public in gener-
al should give the minstrels every en-
couragement and co-operation possi-
ble.
— The annual football dance of
the Bellefonte Academy was held in
the armory last Thursday evening and
the consensus of opinion of those
present is that it was just about a lit-
tle the best dance of any ever held.
The decorations were elaborate and
beautiful, the music far above the ordi-
nary, the attendance large and an am-
ple supply of pretty girls to add va-
riety and vivaciousness to the even-
ing’s pleasure. , Of course, midst such
surroundings time flies fast, so that it
was well on in the early morning
hours when the orchestra responded to
their last encore and the dance be-
came only a memory. :

Centre county. All contributions to-
ward helping to make up this amount
will be gladly received.
——The February term of court

to the list of cases down for trial, will
hardly last the week out. But more
than the usual amount of interest will

summoned to serve as jurors, and - of
course, everybody will be interested
in the outcome of any and all cases
on which they may be called upon to
sit.

The auditor’s statement for
Centre county is now in the hands of
the printers and will soon make its ap-
pearance in the newspapers for the in-
formation of the tax payers of Centre
county. In past years it has always
been the custom of the auditors: to
turn their report over to a typewriter
for copying but this year auditor H.
H. Stover did that work himself, com-
pleting his task last Saturday morn-
ing.

——Scattered through the crowd of
fifteen hundred people who witnessed
the University of Pennsylvania-Penn
State boxing bouts last Friday even-

cheered just as lustily for the local
boxers as any of the men present
And they were all overjoyed with the
fact that State won a 6 to 1 victory.

Judge Henry C. Quigley has
been invited to go to Philadelphia next
month to sit in quarter sessions court
| for a period of four weeks and has ac-
cepted. It will be his first appearance
on the bench in the Quaker city,
though he has established quite a rep-
utation as a quarter sessions judge in
Pittsburgh, having returned home on
Sunday from a two week’s session on
the bench in the latter place. And
judging from the newspaper com-
ments he received during the two
weeks his actions on the bench there
have met with the approval of the bar
and the public.
—The State Highway Depart-
ment has awarded to Leo Kelly, Inc,
of Brooklyn, N. Y., the contract for
building a stretch of state highway
between Philipsburg and Allport, a
distance of 25,426 feet, or almost five
miles, for $334,415.80. The building
of the above seciton of road has been
under consideration for several years
and the awarding of the contract is
assurance that it will soon be con-
structed. It is understood that work
on the same will be started as early
in the spring as possible. The Leo
Kelly Inc. company is the same that
built the state highway through
State Colloge last summer and has a
reputation for pushing its work.
— On Sunday afternoon the Beat-
ty Motor company, with two Fordson
tractors and a large road drag made
from lumber furnished by Hugh N.
Crider, opened the roadways in the
deep snow through the principal
streets of Bellefonte. When they
started out they had the tractors
hitched side by side but later
put one in front of the other.
The drag was a little too light at
first so a number of men climbed on
and rode it as it was hauled through
the streets and the result was it
proved quite successful in opening up
the streets. On both High and Alle-
gheny streets two roadways were
opened thus affording good driveways
for automobiles and other vehicles
going in either direction.

Government Will Continue Carrying
Mail by Airplane.
A very substantial appropriation |
for the continuance of the air mail
service during the next fiscal year has
been included in the appropriation
bills passed by Congress after the
Postoffice Department submitted facts
and figures showing what had been
accomplished in this new venture. The
report states that inaugurated May
15th, 1918, the air mail service has
carried nearly fifty million letters and
the planes have traveled more than
one and a half million miles. The
statement declares that the perform-
ance of the service, including pilots,
planes and mechanics, is “far beyond
the conception of the most optimistic
authorities in aviation at the time of
the inauguration of the service.” The
Department now has twenty-one
planes in service and the average of
all types under all conditions of op-
eration has been 83.6 miles per hour.
Pilot C. E. Ebersole, who will be
remembered by Bellefonters as among
the first squad of fliers to pilot planes
over the New York to Chicago airmail
route, figured in a thrilling episode at
Mendota, Mon., last Saturday when he
jumped from his plane at an altitude
of three thousand feet and descended
safely to ground by means of a para-
chute. Ebersole contends that his ma-
chine got out of control and one motor
had apparently torn loose from its |
moorings, but witnesses state that the
plane continued its course with both
motors running after Ebersole was
seen to jump. An investigation is be-
ing made, according to the announce-
ment of assistant superintendent of
air mail service Frank H. Tower, at
Minneapolis. Mr. Tower, by the way,
is also known in Bellefonte, having
had charge of the field here for a few
weeks prior to the appointment of
Morris J. Kelly as superintendent.
From San Francisco to New York in
34 Hours, 50 Minutes.
In order to try out the speed of the
air-mail service the Postoffice Depart-
ment this week made a record by cov-
ering the distance between New York
and San Francisco in exactly 34 hours
and 50 minutes. The experiment, for
such it will be for the present, was
made for the purpose of ascertaining
what could be accomplished by the air
mail service. The schedule planned
was thirty-six hours for the flight and
six o’clock Tuesday morning was set
as the time. Two ships were started
from New York and two from San
Francisco. The two from New York
failed to get through. One was forc-
ed down at McGee’s Mills, Clearfield
the other was held up at Chicago for
the same reason.
The two ships leaving San Francis-
co established the record, but one flier
lost his life at Reno, Nevada, when
his plane went into a tail spin and fell
to the ground. The flight from Chey-
enne to Chicago was made at night,
and the fliers who pilotted the planes
were Murray and Jimmie Knight, both
well known in Bellefonte. The last
lap of the flight east was made by pi-
lots Allison and Hopson, the former
reaching New York at 4:50 p. m. Wed-
nesday and Hopson getting in at 5:05.
Both machines going west and one of
those eastbound stopped at the Belle-
fonte field for inspection and supplies,
and were checked out in record time.

More Booze Seized in Bellefonte.
On Sunday two federal officers ar-
rived in Bellefonte and early Monday
morning proceeded to the old building
formerly occupied as an office by the
Nittany Iron company and placed a
government seal on the door. On
Tuesday morning two other officers ar-
rived from Scranton and taking
George Doll with them went out to the
building, broke the seals and entered.
Nothing incriminating in the booze
line was found in the room, but the of-
ficers ovdered Mr. Doll to open the
vault ard in the iron box were found
one full barrel .of whiskey, another
barrel which was only partially full,
and eight quarts of whiskey. The
booze was taken by the officers and
conveyed up town where it was depos-
ited in the vault of the postoffice cel-
lar. The building in which the booze
was seized has been in charge of
George Doll for some time past, and
it is rumored that others beside him-
self are implicated in the ownership
of the whiskey, but so far no arrests
have been made.
Former Gridiron Star Dead.
Alexander B. Gray, a former cap-
tain and one of the best guards ever
sent on the gridiron at Penn State,
died at his home at Washington, Pa.,
last Thursday, of spinal meningitis.
Gray, who was thirty-six years old,
captained the 1910 State team and
made a wonderful record as a player.
When the United States entered the
world war he enlisted in the aviation
section and saw service in France. He
had a severe attack of influenza dur-
ing the epidemic in the fall of 1918
from which he never fully recovered.
Returning to his home at Washington,
Pa., he was elected sheriff of the coun-
ty and was serving in that capacity at
the time of his death.
