Bellefonte, Pa., August 26, 1921. ALL ABOUT TOWN AND COUNTY. Mrs. G. R. Spigelmyer is crit- ically ill at her home on Howard street. — James Krape is now collecting paper, rags and old rubber. Any one wanting to clear their home of these aceumulations telephone or write a note to James. While playing on the bridge at @Boleville on Monday evening Clifford Davis, aged about twelve years, fell from the bridge and broke his arm. A physician reduced the fracture. One of the largest corn roasts held in Centre county this year was pulled off on Tuesday evening near Meek’s church. It was a community affair and the corn consumed was measured by bushels instead of doz- ens. Editor Charles E. Dorworth, of the Republican, has been confined to his home on east Linn street, for the past ten days. He suffered a torn lig- ament in the instep through a fall and : has had to rely on canes as a help to locomotion. Scenic patrons who wish to see all the good motion pictures should make it a point to attend regularly. Good programs are presented every evening and by remaining away one or two evenings a week may mean missing just the pictures you would like to see. The Hon. and Mrs. Charles H. Rowland, with their son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Hollen- back, gave a large dinner-dance at The Phillips, in Philipsburg, last Fri- day evening. Two hundred guests were present, a special train having been run from Tyrone for the affair. Harry Baum and a lady com- panion, Miss Sarah Stroh, had a nar- row escape at Sunbury on Wednesday when their automobile was struck by a locomotive and squeezed between the locomotive and the watch box. The auto held together and both the occupants escaped uninjured. Mr. Baum is a Bellefonte boy and his friends here are glad he escaped in- jury. Judge C. B. Witmer, of Sun- bury, has issued an order that ali con- fiseated liquors in the middle distriet of Pennsylvania must be disposed of without delay. pitals and the “bootleg” variety is to be dumped into the sewer. This will probably mean the disposition of the | big stock now stored in the cellar of : the Bellefonte postoffice. ——The Logan fire company is making elaborate preparations for its big picnic to be held at Hecla park on Labor: day. Included in the program will be.a baseball game, various track sports, boxing and wrestling, avia- tion ‘exhibition, concerts by Frank Wetzler’s band, and dancing in the pavilion all afternoon and evening. Make your arrangements to attend this gathering and give the firemen a boost. Jack Montgomery took a trip to Chicago in an aeroplane on Tues- day. Strolling up to the aviation field on Tuesday morning he became inter- ested in an S. V. A. ship (Italian) that was being taken west for passen- ger service. The pilot finally invited him to go along as a free passenger as far as Chicago and Jack accepted the invitation and when the ship left Bellefonte he was aboard for the Win- dy city. J. Ellis Harvey, of Orviston, who is active in the management of the Orviston brick works, is now in- terested in developing a new fire clay field in the Tiadaghton forest, near Pump Station, Tioga county, which is said to be one of the biggest finds in the State. The vein is eleven feet thick and covers more than fifty acres. It is estimated that one thousand tons a day can be taken out and the field will be good for fifty years. Arthur A. Stewart, who was brought to Bellefonte several weeks ago, continues seriously ill at the home of his grandmother, Mrs. Miller Stewart. Arthur graduated from Cornell in June and without a rest after the over-strenuous year, accept- ed a position at once; the close con- finement and ardous work being fol- lowed by a collapse early in August. His condition at present is such as to cause great alarm to his relatives. ——Contractor Edward M. Gehret has made such good progress in re- pairing the Bellefonte Academy that he figures on completing the job by September 10th, or just a few days before the opening of the fall session of that institution. The first and third floors are now practically com- pleted and the work so far along on the second floor that it can be com- pleted in two weeks. As all the work is now in doors there will be no hold- ups on account of unfavorable weath- er to interfere. Among the student body which will be enrolled at the Bellefonte Academy the coming year will be some good football material and in- cluded in the number will be a young man who has already made a name for himself on the gridiron, according to information received at the Academy this week. The young man is Stuart Stanger, of Truro, Mass., who has spent three years at Petty Institute, N. J., and played end on the football team. He was also elected captain for 1922. But it happens that he is a nephew of Bob Higgins, the famous football player at State, and that is one great reason he has decided to come to the Academy this year.

Despondent over a long siege of ill health Mrs. Bigler Shaffer, of near Wolf’s Store, shot herself in the breast on Monday morning while vis- iting her son Paul and family in Little : Nittany valley, dying instantly, and ' at an early hour Tuesday morning the i Shaffer home in Brush valiey was en- | tirely destroyed by fire. The Shaffers !live on the farm of ex-sheriff Cyrus Brungard, about a mile and a half west of Wolf’s Store. Some ten years ‘ago Mrs. Shaffer was compelled to | undergo an operation and while she | recovered sufficiently to be around she has never enjoyed good health and was constantly guarded by members | of the family. Last Saturday she was | | induced to go to the home of her son i Paul, who works for Irvin Bierly, on { the Samuel Hoy farm below Belle- fonte, in the hope that the change would prove beneficial. On Sunday she noticed a shot gun standing in one of the rooms and asked for some shells to take along home. At first she was told there were no shells but when she stated that she would come to Bellefonte and get some her son told her he had shells and showed them to hei. He was careful, how- ' ever, to put them all away but in some way she got hold of one and securing the: gun shot herself while in her room. The deplorable act was of course a , great schock to her son and the entire | family, but the tragedy was intensified { by the fact that about four o’clock on | Tuesday morning the Shaffer home near Wolf’s Store caught fire and | burned to the ground, most of their household goods going up in smoke. Mrs. Shaffer was past fifty years of | age. Her maiden name was Edith { Hosterman, a daughter of Thomas and Rachael Vonada Hosterman, and she was born at Woodward. After her marriage to Mr. Shaffer the family lived near Zion, then at Centre Hall, Millheim, and finally in Brush valley. In addition to her husband she is sur- vived by four sons and two daughters, namely: Roy Shaffer, of Tusseyville; Paul, in Little Nittany valley; Thom- as, in Pennsvalley; Mrs. Clara Coble, : of Brush valley; Mrs. Emory Day and Nevin, at home. The remains were taken in charge by undertaker Frank V. Goodhart, of Centre Hall, and kept there until yes- terday afternoon when funeral serv- ices were held and burial made. at Woodward. ——— es — | Bellefonte Lumber Co. Buys Crider Lumber Yard. i The new Bellefonte Lumber compa- {ny closed negotiations this week for { the purchase of the old and well | known lumber yard of P. B. Crider & Son, The purchase includes the grounds and all rights appertaining thereto as well as the large stock of lumber on hand. The planing mill on the property was destroyed by fire up- wards of two years ago and never was rebuilt, and at this writing the plans of the purchasers have not been made public further than that they will con- ior the present. The executors of the F. W. Crider estate have also conclud- ed negotiations for the sale of valu- | able timber tracts in this and other sections of the State to various pur- chasers whose names have not been made public. The P. B. Crider & Son lumber yard was established in Bellefonte by the late Philip B. Crider more than thirty years ago. The late F. W. Cri- der was identified with the business from the time of its organization un- til his death on February 11th last. P. B. Crider & Son operated in lum- ber on an extensive scale, both retail and wholesale, and the firm was known and highly rated in lumber cir- cles in all parts of the country. Since the death of F. W. Crider the lumber yard has been conducted by the ex- ecutors of the estate. The yard ma- terial includes a large amount of the highest grades of all kinds of lumber, all of which has been purchased by, and will be merged into the business of the Bellefonte Lumber company. State College to Get Late Evening Mail. The Postoffice Department is asking for bids for carrying mail one way from State College to Bellefonte, leaving the College at 6:15 p. m. and reaching Bellefonte at 7:15 p. m. For some time past residents of the Col- lege have importuned the postmaster at that place as well as the Depart- ment at Washington for an evening outgoing mail. Their latest regular mail now leaves the College about three o’clock for Lemont, making con- nection with the train over the Lewis- burg branch for Bellefonte. This means that all business letters for the day must be in the postoffice by three o'clock, which is regarded as very poor service. In asking for bids the Department stipulates as the life of the contract from September 16th, 1921, to June 30th, 1922. The mail will be carried direct from State College to Belle- fonte, no stops being made at inter- vening towns. em nee Grange Encampment Premium Books. Premium books have been issued this year for the first time by the Grange encampment and fair asso- ciation for their big exhibition at Grange Park September 3-9. These books, containing the rules and all necessary information for exhibitors, can be secured at any time from the secretary, Miss Edith O. Sankey, Cen- tre Hall. tinue the yard at its present location | — County Auditor Herbert H. Sto- ver, of Smullton, brought his twelve year old son Jennings to Bellefonte on Monday to have his left arm examin- ed. A month or five weeks ago the boy was playing on a trapeze and fell on his left arm, injuring it at the el- bow. The result was he was compelled to carry the arm in a sling and now that the soreness has gone out he can not straighten the arm, owing to the contraction of the muscles. A course of treatment was advised which will probably bring relief. — The big barn on the Clarence Beck farm about a mile west of War- riorsmark was totally destroyed by fire on Tuesday morning. Four fine Belgian horses, two calves, all of the summer’s crops of wheat, oats and hay, and a large part of his farming implements were destroyed. The fire was discovered about three o’clock in the morning in the lower part of the barn and as no person had had any fire near the barn the previous even- ing the supposition is that it was set on fire. the conflagration and succeeded in saving the house. Mr. Beck carried some insurance but not nearly enough to cover his loss. Mrs. John Spangler, of Centre Hall, celebrated her ninety-third birth- day anniversary on Monday, a feat rarely equalled by any woman. And the remarkable part of it is that she is still in splendid health, though of late her eyes are giving her more or less trouble, a fact she naturally de-' plores because she has always been a great reader. In this connection it might be stated that she has read the “Watchman” regularly every week for over fifty years and still looks for- ward to its coming with an interest undismayed by her advancing years.’ Naturally Mrs. Spangler had many | callers on Monday to congratulate her upon her natal anniversary but what pleased her most was the fact that she had with her her three “boys,” Col. J. L. Spangler and R. B. Spangler, of Bellefonte, and Howard, who makes his home with his mother. While on their way to the Bus- iness Men’s picnic at Hecla park last Thursday county auditor Herbert H. Stover and family, of Smullton, had more than their share of excitement when their car caught fire. The Sto- vers in their new car and J. H. Show- ers and family in their car left Smull- ton about nine o’clock in the morning and while motoring through Little Sugar valley Mrs. Stover noticed that the mat in the tonneau of the car was on fire. She lost no time in telling her husband to stop and jumping out of the car they soon had the flames ex- tinguished with water from the creek flowing through the valley. An inves- tigation disclosed the fact that the muffler on the car was defective and the heat from the exhaust pipe set fire to the floor of the car. Had Mrs. Stover not discovered it when she did there might have been a more serious story to tell. As it was, once the flames were extinguished the family continued on their way to the picnic. Funeral of Calvin Wetzel. The “Watchman” .last week told of the drowning of Calvin Wetzel, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Wetzel, in Lake Huron at Great Bend, Canada, on Sunday, August 14th. The body was finally recovered on Thursday afternoon, it being found on the beach by a twelve year old boy about eight miles from where the drowning took place. According to later information Wetzel had swam out into about thir- ty feet of water and was caught by the undertow. His companion saw the accident and hurriedly swam to shore and secured a boat but was unable te effect a rescue as the treacherous un- dertow kept Wetzel beneath the sur- face. The body and members of the fam- ily arrived in Bellefonte on Saturday and funeral services were held in the Reformed church at ten o’clock on Monday morning. Dr. A. M. Schmidt officiated and burial was made in the Union cemetery. An Appeal to the Centre County Voters. Dr. Lucrecia Simmons, of State Col- lege, will be the only candidate from Centre county for the nomination for delegate to the constitutional conven- tion. At the primaries on September 20th the voters will be called upon to vote either for or against a revision of the constitution, and at the same time vote on delegates for the consti- tutional convention. This Congressional district, (the 21st) is entitled to three delegates and there are four candidates, one Demo- crat and three Republicans. Every voter is entitled to cast his vote for two and the three highest will receive the nomination. The only Democrat- ic candidate is John Scollins, of Clear- field county, and he being the only representative of the party his elec- tion is assured. There are three Republican candi- dates, Guy B. Mayo, of McKean coun- ty; Americus H. Woodward, of Clear- field county, and Lucrecia V. T. Sim- mons, of Centre county. As each vot- er can vote for but two candidates the two receiving the highest number of votes will be elected. There should be some women in the constitutional convention and Dr. Simmons is most admirably fitted to contribute her share in this important work. She has devoted her life to ed- ucational labor. Her co-workers ex- press the hope that the voters of this district will elect her, and ask all to vote for her at the primaries. One of the Tyrone fire com- panies sent a pumper to the scene of : — Business Men’s Picnic Drew a Big Crowd to Hecla Park. In the neighborhood of five theus- and people attended the Business Men’s picnic at Hecla park last Thursday, it being by all odds the largest crowd seen at the park in some years. As the only means of getting there was by bus or automo- bile every available space was packed solid with parked cars. The day was ' exceedingly pleasant, considering the heavy rain that had fallen the night ' previous and during the early hours ' on Thursday morning. | One of the big features of the gath- ering was the ball game in the after- ' noon between the Eagle silk mill team | of Shamokin and the Bearcats, of Philipsburg. A good sized delegation of faithful supporters came over from Philipsburg to root for their team but { when the latter got onto the Diamond | they proved to be entirely capable of taking care of themselves. In fact | they won the game by the score of 5 { to 1, which of course pleased the Phil- ' ipsburgers. A prominent visitor at the picnic was Lieutenant Governor Edward E. Beidleman, of Harrisburg, who ac- ‘companied Hon. Harry B. Scott here from Philipsburg after attending the firemen’s convention in that place. Socially the picnic was a big success and it also proved more of a success financially than the gathering last year when the association fell behind to the tune of $170.00. This year the asociation cleared in the neighborhood of one hundred dollars. The committee in charge wishes to thank all persons who contributed their services to help make the picnic a success. They especially mention the girls who helped financially and won prizes for selling the most tick- ets to the baseball game in the after- noon. The list of those to whom prizes were awarded is: | Miss Ida Fisher, 1st prize, given by | H. C. Yeager; Miss Martha Haines, 2nd, silk parasol by Hazel & Co.; Miss i Thelma Hazel, 3rd, ladies’ sweater, by ' Cohen & Co.; Miss Rebecca Yerger, 4th, necklace, by Schlow’s Quality Shop; Miss Gussie Thompson, 5th, brilliant bow pin, by F. P. Blair & Son; Miss Regina Yerger, 6th, silk hose, by Katz & Co.; Miss Mildred Wagner, 7th, bath shoes and cap, by Mott Drug Co. The difference in amount from sale of tickets between the 1st and 2nd prize was only 26 cents, showing that both girls were al- most even in honors. Notwithstanding the fact that the crowd was so big, nobody was obliged to go hungry. Those who failed to take baskets were well taken care of by caterer Jerles, of Lock Haven, who served good meals, and who was liber- ally patronized. The ice cream stands also did a good business throughout the day. The canoes supplied by the Bald Ea- gle canoe house were in great demand and at times the lake was well filled with them. The committee is under obligation to the Red Cross for having represen- tatives on hand throughout the day, but fortunately their services were re- quired in only one case. Winfield Gramley, of Rebersburg, was hit in the face by a baseball which cut and bruised the flesh above his right eye. The injury was properly dressed at the Red Cross tent. Hills orchestra furnished the music in the dancing pavilion and were kept busy from one to eleven p. m., with only a brief time for supper. Of course the Odd Fellows band came in for a lot of commendation for its de- lightful concerts rendered during the day, and they were not at all stingy with their music, either. In Society.
