day afternoon, will be all kinds of
household goods, including furniture,
a range, double heater, and everything

— Anyone who is looking for a lo-
cation for a shop might do well to see
a large two-story building at the rear
of A. R. Everett's home on Howard
street. It is roomy, in good repair
and easy of access. It is admirably
adapted for laundry, painting or re-
pair work.
An Easter food sale will be

The Bellefonte Academy stu-
dents are now hard at work practic-
ing for their annual minstrel perfor-
mance on May 19th and 20th. Their
repertoire of songs includes the most
catchy and up-to-date selections, and
they have already compiled a good
list of new jokes and quips which are
sure to please. Remember the dates
and keep them open for the minstrels.
The State-Centre Electric com-
Word
pany has filed a new tariff of rates |
with the Public Service Commission
governing electric service in portions
of Centre and Clinton counties. The
new tariff becomes effective on April
1st, 1921, and amends Rule No. 13
covering penalty by adding the fol-
lowing clause: “Failure to receive
bill does not relieve consumer of pen-
alty.”
While some of the lime indus-
tries around Bellefonte are closed
down for lack of orders the Scenic is
open every evening during the week
except Sunday. There is no lack of
good motion pictures and the Scenic
is providing Bellefonters with a large
share of the very best. That is the
reason it is always so well patronized.
No other place in Bellefonte offers
the same kind of amusement.
Harry Johnson, who was re-
cently awarded the contract for carry-
ing the U. S. mail through Nittany
valley from Bellefonte to Lock Haven,
has already rued his bargain and will
probably throw up the contract. Un-
der the new regulations promulgated
by the Postoffice Department the con-
tractor will be prohibited from carry-
ing passengers enroute, and this
source of revenue being cut off Mr.
Johnson considers his bid too low.
The storm doors at the First
National bank were taken down last
Friday; two new benches were taken
to the court house on Monday as rest-
ing places for the old soldiers when
the air gets warm and balmy; the
curbstone orator is again in evidence;
fresh rhubarb is creeping out of the
ground and the lilac buds are burst-
ing, ample evidence that spring will
soon be here when the man with the
spade and the hoe will be king bee in
the garden patch.
The recent arrest of Joe Rosen-
thal, of Wilkes-Barre, the alleged
‘head of the whiskey gang that has
’
ben flooding this section of the State
with booze, may result in some inter-
esting disclosures. It is said that the
authorities have confiscated his books
which show that he had about fifteen
regular customers in Clearfield, a doz-
en at Osceola, six at Houtzdale, twen-
ty at DuBois and eighteen in Philips-
burg and Bellefonte. It is also alleged
that the authorities are considering
the publication of the above list of
customers.
Many persons in Centre county
are under the impression that the Eu-
ropean relief and Near East relief
are one and the same worthy cause,
but such is not the case, and those in
charge of the European relief want
this fact impressed upon the public.
The Near East campaign is over and
Centre county did its part in this
great work. The appeal now before
the people is for help for the Euro-
pean relief, and Centre county’s share
is approximately ten thousand dollars.
As this will probably be the last gen-
eral appeal to be made for any unus-
ual assistance a generous response is
hoped for.

| Bellstonte Hotel Men Given Fine and
Jail Sentence.
| Judge Witmer, of Sunbury, this
week disposed of the cases against
Henry Kline, August Glinz and Wal-
ter Krytzer, of Bellefonte, arrested
several months ago on the charge of
| illegally trafficking in liquor, by im-
posing the following sentences: Hen-
ry Kline, $500 fine and ten days in the
Centre county jail; Walter Krytzer,
$300 fine and ten days in jail; August
Glinz, $200 fine, and Barney Bilger,
$50 fine.
Charles Baney, charged with steal-
ing confiscated liquor from the vault
in the cellar of the Bellefonte postof-
fice , was given a two month’s jail sen-
tence, and Thomas W. Johnson (col-
ored) arrested in company with Ba-
ney, was sent to jail for twenty days.
W. G. Runkle represented Johnson be-
fore the U. S. district court which was
held in Scranton, and after the latter
was sentenced attorney Runkle was
sworn in as a deputy U. S. Marshall
to deliver him to the Centre county
jail, which he did yesterday morning.
Readers of the “Watchman” no
doubt recall the raid made by Rev. R.
E. Johnson, the fighting parson, and
his wrecking squad of Philadelphia, in
Bellefonte during November when
both the Haag house and Garman
house were cleaned out of all the
liquor the raiders could find, and the
| proprietors placed under arrest. About
a case of whiskey was secured at the
Haag house and a small quantity of
liquor found in Krytzer’s room at the
Garman house, but from the latter
place the raiding parson also took Mr.
Glinz’s private stock of old wines that
he had declared to the government
and were legally in his possession.
This was the first booze stored in the
old wine vault in the cellar of the
postoffice, but since that time the stock
has been added to frequently until
now there is probably fifty thousand
dollar’s worth stored there.
| The cases against landlords Kline
and Glinz have hung fire ever since,
and their applications for a license for
1921 were held up pending the dispo-
sition of these cases. The sentences
of Judge Witmer being limited to
fines these will likely be promptly
paid and the cases closed on the dock-
ets of the U. S. court.
Found Small Fortune in Old Feather
Tick.
A report comes from Mill Hall of
the finding of a small fortune in an
old feather tick by Mrs. Minerva Mil-
ler, who makes her home with her
son, Clyde V. Mauck, at that place. It
appears that Mrs. Miller had an old
| tick that had passed its days of use-
| fulness and a few days ago she ripped
| it open with the intention of burning
{ the feathers. In taking the feathers
i out of the tick :-she came across a
cloth-wrapped package and, upon
| opening it, discovered the contents to
i be greenbacks, ranging in denomina-
| tion from one to twenty dollars.
| Most of the outer bills were so old,
| worn and soiled that it is hard to de-
termine their denomination, but the
i total amount of the find is estimated at
from $1,500 to $2,000. The worn and
soiled bills will be sent to the U. S.
| treasury for redemption.
| The feather tick was given Mrs.
| Miller by an aunt, who died in Mill-
heim about twenty-five years ago.
| That was before the days of so many
banks in Millheim and the original
owner of the tick had evidently used
it as a safety deposit vault.
Centre Countians Inherit Money.
Nine natives of the wilds in Centre
county literally gasped this week when
' they received checks for $1637.10 each
| as their portion from the estate of
| Martha J. Campbell, who died at Nor-
thumberland more than a year ago,
|
|
|
|
|
' says a Sunbury dispatch published in
{the North American yesterday. More
| than a year ago when Mrs. Campbell
died, she left $5000 to a Presbyterian
| school in Philadelphia and the rest of
her fortune to her blood relatives. A
| branch of the family lived in Colum-
| bus, Ohio, and the audit of the estate
‘was about to be made when a Nor-
| thumberland lawyer located another
| branch of the family in Centre county.
| A correspondence followed and the
| investigation showed the Centre coun-
| tians to be blood relatives and they
shared in the distribution. The list of
Centre county heirs as given in the
dispatch includes Louise A. Hansel-
man, Lucy M. Cook, Adam Hanselman,
Uriah Hanselman, William Hansel-
man, Richard Hanselman, Anne E.
Harkey, Matilda J. Kessler and Peter
Hanselman.
C. Y. Wagner and Co. Inc. Again
Making Fine Flour.
The splendid new mill which has
been recently completed by C. Y.
| Wagner & Co., Inc, is in operation
and again the brands of flour that had
such an enviable reputation when Mr.
Wagner was milling at Roopsburg are
on the local market.
“Qur Best,” which is a straight win-
ter wheat product, and “Victory,” the
brand under which they manufacture
their fine patented spring wheat flour,
are both commanding the praise of lo-
cal house-keepers who do their own
baking.
The mill is holding out special op-
portunities for farmers through its ad-
vertised offer to grind feed while they
wait and is also in the market for all
kinds of grain.

Mr. Henry Klonower, assistant
director of the Department of Public
Instruction, will speak on “The Plans
of the State Educational Department,”
on Tuesday evening, March 22nd, at
8:15, in the old chapel, State College.
All persons interested in the progress
of education in the State of Pennsyl-
vania are invited. Go and get first-
hand information. The meeting has
been arranged by the citizenship sec-
tion of the Women’s club of State Col-
lege and is open to all.

Hugh and Philip Johnston, sons
of Mr. and Mrs. J. Kennedy Johnston,
of Bellefonte, both graduates of the
Bellefonte High school where they
took a leading part in all athletics, are
keeping up in their sports at Dickin-
son College, where they are now stu-
dents. Both young men played for-
ward on the Dickinson basket ball
team and showed rare form in the
cage, being two of the heaviest shoot-
ers on the squad. They work excep-
tionally well together and promise to
develop into two of the speediest cage-
men Dickinson has ever had.

at Yeager’s. 11-1t
Thomas Caldwell, who has been
head plumber in the Archibald Allison
plumbing establishment for many
years, last week closed a deal for the
purchase of the entire store and equip-
ment from Mr. Allison. Appraisers
started this week to make an inven-
tory of the stock in the store but be-
fore they got very far along in their
work Mr. Caldwell became ill as the
result of blood poisoning and has been
in a very critical condition at his home
on Lamb street. Yesterday, however,
his condition seemed enough improved
to lend encouragement to the hope for
his speedy recovery.
In a few days the Potter-Hoy
Hardware Co. will be represented on
the streets by a fine new motor truck.
The big hardware firm has clung to
the horse delivery system longer than
any other of our local industries be-
cause the head of the firm has always
been a lover of horses and just
couldn’t bear to let their faithful ani-
mals go. They have purchased a new
White chassis and Forrest Bullock has
completed a very substantial body for
it so that very soon the hay motors of
this well known wholesale concern will
give way to the speedier but far less
dependable power of gasoline.
Graduate manager Jay P. Har-
man, of the Susquehanna University,
is somewhat exorcised over the fact
that some Bellefonte paper in com-
menting upon a recent game of bas-
ket ball between the Bellefonte Acad-
emy five and players from the Selins-
grove institution referred to the latter
as the “Susquehanna University
team,” when in reality the quintette
were only young men who are lovers
of the game and not an organized
team at all. So far as the comments:
referred to are concerned the “Watch-
man” pleads not guilty, but we gladly
make the explanation just the same.

——Quite extensive improvements
are now being made in the Bush house
which, when completed, will further
increase the conveniences of this al-
ways popular hotel. Running water
is being installed in eight additional
rooms, which will make a total of
twenty-eight rooms with running wa-
ter, hot and cold, and seven rooms
with private baths. The main hall-
ways in the building are being re-
painted and papered, the dining room
and office will be gone over and when
all the work planned has been com-
pleted the interior of the hotel will
present such an improved appearance
that its regular patrons will hardly
know the place.

—A letter from Mrs. L. H. Tur-
ner, of Randalia, Iowa, brings to this
office the announcement of the recent
death in that place of George Kline
Hall, a native of Centre county, who
was born and grew to manhood at
Howard. He was a nephew of former
sheriff Kline, of Bellefonte. Mr. Hall
went west many years ago and locat-
ed at West Union, Iowa, but two years
ago went to Randalia. Though he
lived in the west for many years he
kept in touch with affairs in his native
county through the columns of the
“Watchman” and would rather go
without his Sunday dinner than miss
an issue of the paper. He never mar-
ried and his only survivors include
nieces and nephews.

— Bellefonte has a case of sick-
ness that two physicians have diag-
nosed as smallpox. The victim is
Joseph Baney, who has been employed
as a section hand on the Lewisburg
and Tyrone railroad. Baney had been
engaged in handling freshly creosoted
ties and it was at first thought that
the breaking out on his arms might
be poison from the creosote but phy-
sicians diagnosed otherwise, and yes-
terday it was stated that the disease
is now well defined. It is a compara-
tively light case, however, and Mr.
Baney’s condition is not at all serious.
The man lives, as stated above, on Lo-
gan street with his wife and two
young children. The house has been
quarantined and every effort will be
made to prevent the spread of the dis-
ease. How Mr. Baney came in con-
tact with the contagion is an unsolved
question.
CELE
Altoona Trying for Aviation Field.
Business men of Altoona are consid-
erably excited just now over the pos-
sibility of that city being selected as
a station on a new air mail line which
it is rumored will be put in operation
between New York and Chicago on
May first. According to the rumor
the Lawson Airline Co., Inc., of which
Alfred W. Lawson is the president,
claims they have been awarded the
contract for carrying the U. S. mail
from New York to Chicago, via. Har-
risburg and Pittsburgh, the contract
to begin May first. During the past
two weeks a gentleman named C. F.
Anderson, who claims to represent the
Lawson company, has paid Altoona
several visits for the purpose of ex-
amining sites for a landing place in
that city, claiming that regular stops
will probably be made in Altoona.
The Altoona papers quote Mr. Ander-
son as authority for the statement
that when the Lawson company takes
over the mail contract the government
will naturally cease to function so
far as carrying the mails is concern-
ed over the present New York to Chi-
cago route, and the result will be the
abandonment of the aviation field in
Bellefonte.
While the “Watchman” has no in-
side information in regard to the mat-
ter it does know that at the present
time extensive improvements are be-
ing made to the wireless station on
the Bellefonte field which will run in-
to thousands of dollars, and other
costly improvements and equipment
have been planned for the field and
buildings in general, and it hardly
seems reasonable that these expenses
would be incurred if the government
intended abandoning the field as ear-
ly as May first. And then again, the
location of a suitable field in the
neighborhood of Altoona may not be
an easy matter, as just any old field
will not do for airplane service.

be measured. Meddlesome first aid is
dangerous, often productive of great
discomfort to the patient and serious
hindrance to recovery.

Grape Pruning.
Grape pruning should be done with-
out délay. Remember that the fruit
is borne on new wood, growing from
the buds now present on last year’s
wood. Most people owning a few
vines do not prune grapes heavily
enough. A strong vine should be
pruned to carry not more than twen-
ty to fifty buds, and weaker vines will
do best on even less buds. Too many
buds will form too much inferior fruit,
sapping the vitality of the vine. Eight
canes with about six buds each is a
good proportion for a strong vine.
Write to The Pennsylvania State
College school of agriculture, State
College, Pa., for Extension Circular
No. 81, “Grape Culture in Pennsylva-
nia,” which contains full information
on pruning.

Cheer Up Mabel.
Geo. E. Wintz, producer of “Going
Up,” “Betty Be Good,” and other high
class musical comedies will offer the
patrons of Garman’s opera house on
Thursday, March 24th, his latest and
greatest effort, “Cheer Up Mabel.”
This production is regarded as one of
the leaders of its kind in the class of
popular priced musical shows. The
company numbers thirty-five players,
comprising such principals as Nyra
Brown, John G. Getz, Helen Jonis,
Bill Barber, the Seymour sisters,
Lenard Phillips, and Virginia White.
From a fashion viewpoint, “Cheer Up
Mabel” is declared to be a real pace
maker. In the “Fashion Girl” num-
ber it is said that the models will wear
$10,000 worth of gowns. The piece is
in two acts and seven scenes, staged
in a gorgeous and spectacular manner,
characteristic of Geo. E. Wintz’s of-
ferings in other seasons. A lively
chorus of Broadway blonde, brunette
and titian-haired beauties in feminine
finery dance and prance on a gor-
geous illuminated jeweled flirtation
walk which extends back twenty rows
into the audience.
Governor Sproul has signed the
judges salary increase bill, but the
same does not affect the judges
throughout the State, only those of
the Supreme and Superior courts.
