Final arrangements for President
Wilson to accompany Mr. Harding to !
the capitol this morning were made
Wednesday at a conference between
Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, chair-
man of the joint Congressional inau- |
gural committee, and Joseph P. Tu-
multy, secretary to Mr. Wilson.
As the program was worked out, the
Congressional committee will call on
Mr. Harding and Mr. Coolidge at the
New Willard hotel this morning at
10:30 o’clock. From the hotel the par-
ty will go to the White House and
take President Wilson into the auto-
mobile of the President-elect. The
start then will be made for the capitol
with a view to arrival there at 11
o’clock so President Wilson will have
time to act on the bills passed in the
closing hours of this session of Con-
gress.
TO USE FOUR AUTOS.
There will be at least four automo-
biles for the inaugural party. Presi-
det Wilson, Mr. Harding, Senator
Knox, representing the Senate, and
Representative Cannon, of Illinois,
acting for the House, will ride in the
first. The second automobile will car-
ry Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Harding,
with other members of the Congres-
sional committee; the third automo-
bile will bear Vice President Marshall
and Mr. Coolidge and the fourth the
wives of the Vice President and Vice
President-elect with other members of
the Congressional committee. There
will be the usual staff of secret serv-
ice men in another machine and also
cars for newspaper correspondents.
CAVALRY AS ESCORT.
The party will be escorted by troops
of cavalry from Fort Myer.
After arrival at the capitol, Presi-
dent Wilson and Mr. Harding will go
to the President’s private room, off
the Senate chamber, where Mr. Hard-
ing will receive visitors while Presi-
dent Wilson acts on the final legisla-
tion of Congress.
Just before the adjournmert of Con-
gress, the President and President-
elect will enter the Senate chamber
and from adjacent chairs view the
swearing in of Mr. Coolidge and listen
‘to his address.
At the conclusion of the Senate
ceremonies Mr. Harding will go
through the capitol to the east portico,
after all Senators and guests have
taken their places about the speaking
stand. There he will take the oath of
office and deliver his inaugural ad-
dress under 2 canopy of amplifiers de-
signed to carry his voice distinctly to
every listening ear in the great assem-
blage.

" WILSON MEETS LAST TIME WITH
CABINET.
Members Buy Chair to Give Him;
Farewell Touching.
Washington, March 1.—President
Wilson met with his cabinet today for
the last time and at the meeting’s
close said farewell to the ten men who
have been his official advisers, four of
them since he entered the White
House in 1913.
After an hour and a half spent as
cabinet members said in a discussion
of “official business and otherwise,”
the President autographed for each of
his advisers a photograph taken at
last week’s meeting. Then Mr. Wil-
son said good-bye to each member. At
times the President’s voice trembled
as he extended his thanks for past
services and good wishes for the fu-
ture.
Each of the department heads ex-
pressed to the chief executive a few
words of appreciation for his helpful-
ness and co-operation with their re-
spective departments. They have ar-
ranged to purchase the chair which
the President has occupied at cabinet
meetings during his two administra-
tions for presentation to him before
his departure from the White House
Friday.
When they were gone, the President
remained behind for a few minutes to
receive a waiting delegation of the
Valley Forge Historical society who
presented him with a certificate as
“honorary perpetual benefactor” and
the insignia of the organization. Dr.
W. H. Burk, of Valley Forge, made
the presentation and offered the certi-
ficate, the first of its kind ever bestow-
ed by the society to the President, as
a “teacher, writer and maker of his-
tory.”

JOHN HANNA YOCUM.—The be-
lated notice of the death of John Han-
na Yocum, which occurred in the Or-
ange, N. J. Memorial hospital on
Thursday, January 27th, has just been
"received at this office and brings with
it more than the ordinary modicum of
sorrow. He had been ill only three
days with pneumonia.
Mr. Yocum was born in Ashland,
Pennsylvania, but came with his par-
ents to live in Bellefonte when he was
i just a boy. His father, the late Hon.
i Seth H. Yocum, was associated with
‘ the late Daniel G. Bush in the practice
of law here; having come to Belle-
= fonte to take the place of his brother,
the late George Yocum, who had been
i killed in a hunting accident. At that!
| time the Yocums lived in the house
on Spring street now occupied by the
| Bent family and later bought the
| beautiful country place near the fair
| grounds which later became the home
{ of the Shoemakers. The family left
| Bellefonte shortly after the expiration
lof the father’s term in Congress.
The older residents will recall the his-
toric political fight at that time that
‘resulted in giving this District a
| Greenback representative.
John was a graduate of The Penu-
sylvania State College, class of 1891,
and had been honored with both the B.
S. and M. S. degiees by that institu-
tion. He was a chemist of national
repute, having specialized in applica-
tion of the science to the leather in-
| dustry. He was the first chief chem-
ist for the United States Leather Co.,
and under his direction the first na-
tional survey of available tan bark
was made. He was a fellow of the
Royal chemical society of England
and an authority on the tanning in-
dustry of the United States. He was
a thirty-second degree Mason, a Shrin-
er and the first President of American
Leather Chemist’s Association.
He is survived by his wife and one
daughter, Margaret. Two brothers,
Frank H. Yocum, of Virginia; Dr.
Joseph Grant Yocum, of New York
city; and two sisters, Mrs. Richard W.
Canfield and Miss Betsey H. Yocum,
both of Orange, are living.

night just as he had completed his run.
: Coldren, who lived at No. 15 Aber-
deen street, Harrisburgh, had com-
plained to his fellow trainmen about
not feeling well on the trip from Sun-
bury to Harrisburg and at one of the
regular stops had made a hasty trip to
a doctor’s office for some medicine.
He continued his trip, however, left
his train and was walking up the sub-
way steps when he fell down. Several
trainmen were with him and they at
once undertook to lift him up but he
expired almost instantly. Acute in-
digestion was assigned as the cause
of death.
He was a son of Mr. and Mrs. A. C.
Coldren and was born at Pleasant
Gap, this county, on February 24th,
1884, hence was exactly 37 years old

Centre County Ores Made Money for
Carnegie.
In the autobiography of Andrew
Carnegie as copyrighted by his widow,
Mrs. Louise Whitfield Carnegie, and
now being published in the Pittsburgh
Chronicle Telegraph, he tells about
their hunt for suitable iron ores for
their blast furnaces and has the fol-
lowing to say in connection with their
Centre county operations. After writ-
ing of the material increase in their
blast furnace activities, he said:
There now remained to be acquired
only the supply of iron stone. If we
could obtain this we should be in the
position occupied by only two or three
of the European concerns. We
thought at one time we had succeeded
in discovering in Pennsylvania this
last remaining link in the chain. We
were misled, however, in our invest-
ment in the Tyrone region, and lost
coniderable sums as the result of our
attempts to mine and use the ores of
that section. They promised well at
the edges of the mines, where the ac-
tion of the weather for ages had
washed away impurities and enriched
the ore, but when we penetrated a
small distance they proved too “lean”
to work.
Our chemist, My. Prousser, was then
sent to a Pennsylvania furnace
among the hills which we had leased,
with instructions to analyze all the
materials brought to him from the
district, and to encourage people to
bring him specimens of minerals. A
striking example of the awe inspired
by the chemist in these days was that
only with great difficulty could he ob-
tain a man or a boy to assist him in
the laboratory. He was suspected of
illicit intercourse with the Powers of
Evil when he undertook to tell by his
suspicious-looking apparatus what a
stone contained. I believe that at last
we had to send him a man from our
office at Pittsburgh.
One day he sent us a report of an-
alyses of ore remarkable for the ab-
sence of phosphorus. It was really an
ore suitable for making Bessemer
steel. Such a discovery attracted our
attention at once. The owner of the
property was Moses Thompson, a rich
farmer, proprietor of seven thousand
acres of the most beautiful agricultur-
al land in Centre county, Pennsylva-
nia. An appointment was made to
meet him upon the ground from which
the ore had been obtained. We found
the mine had been worked for a char-
coal blast furnace fifty or sixty years
before, but it had not borne a good
reputation then, the reason no doubt
being that its product was so much
purer than other ores that the same
Mr. Moyer passed away eleven ' Mrs. Frank John Jones, of Bellefonte, amount of flux used caused trouble in
smelting. It was so good it was good
for nothing in those days of old.
We finally obtained the right to take
; the mine over at any time within six
months, and we therefore, began the
work of examination, which every
purchaser of mineral property should
make most carefully. We ran lines
across the hillside fifty feet apart
with cross-lines at distances of a hun-
dred feet apart, and at each point of
intersection we put a shaft down
through the ore. I believe there
were eighty such shafts in all and the
ore was analyzed at every few feet of
depth, so that before we paid over the
hundred thousand dollars asked we
knew exactly what there was of ore.
The result hoped for was more than re-
alized. Through the ability of my
cousin and partner, Mr. Lauder, the
cost of mining and washing was re-
duced to a low figure, and the Scotia
ore made good all the losses we had
incurred in the other mines, paid for
itself, and left a profit besides. In
this case, at least, we snatched a vic-
tory from the jaws of defeat. We
trod upon sure ground with the chem-
ist as our guide. "It will be seen that
we were determined to get raw mater-
ials and were active in the pursuit.
——At the February meeting of the
Woman’s club, held in the auditorium

Ethics of Shoveling.
You can make a science out of any- .
thing. You may remember the old
joke about the Irishman who said that
Hogan was a good shoveler, but he
wasn't what you'd call a fancy shov-
eler. A big plant that manufactures
shovels has made a study of shovel-
ology and has unearthed some inter-
esting facts. For instance, a good
shoveler should pick up a heavier
load than 21 pounds. A good shoveler
should not throw further than ten feet
horizontally or eight feet vertically.
Shovelers should have two ten-minute
periods of complete relaxation every
two hours. Shovelers should work in
pairs, not alone. Two men together
will shovel twice as much as two
alone. Now, spit on your hands and
go to it!—Cincinnati Enquirer.
