fact that there is no important na-

think that the election isn’t of any im-

for this reason the voters in every dis-
trict in the county should see to it
that the best men are elected to fill
the local offices.

——The Penn State football team
played a tie game with Harvard at
Cambridge, Mass., last Saturday, the
score being 21 to 21. But that does
not tell the real story of the game as
the State team played the best game
all through but luck was against her
on two occasions and game was called
when State was again within the
shadow of Harvard’s goal posts. To-
morrow State will play Georgia Tech
at New York and quite a number of
people are going down for the game.
The odds are in favor of State win-
ning but as football is an uncertain
sport the reverse might happen.

QL along toward Friday morning a
touring car was wrecked by running
into the end of the bridge at Miles-
burg. This in itself might not be any-
thing unusual, as cars are wrecked
every day somewhere, but this partic-
ular car contained four or five cases
of whiskey and as the driver was
pretty badly cut on the face by brok-
en glass from the windshield and it
was necessary to take him to the hos-
pital to have his cuts sewed up a gen-
eral onslaught was made on that por-
tion of the cargo that wasn’t wrecl
ed. The whiskey is said to have be-
longed to a man by the name of Mack-
in, but no one seems to know definite-
ly who the owner was or where the
cargo was to have been delivered.

William Carl Lupton, the twen-
ty month’s old son of Mr. and Mrs.
James Lupton, of Philipsburg, was
| bitten on the face one day last week
'by a dog belonging to James Hollo-
well. The animal was promptly kill-
ed and the head sent to T. E. Munce,
state veterinarian, at Philadelphia,
ior examination and a report came
back that the dog was undoubtedly
suffering with rabies in 2 mild form.

to give the child the Pasteur treat-
ment.
First Soccer Game.
The High school soccer team played
its first game at Philipsburg last Sat-
urday. The game was closely con-
tested and resulted in a 1 to 0 victory
for Philipsburg. Considering that it
was Bellefonte’s first game, and on
{foreign grounds the showing of the
teain was exceptionally good. Only
the confidence gained from their pre-
vious games and the fact that they
vere at home gave Philipsburg the
edge. On November 5th the return
game will be played on Hughes field
and the Bellefonte boys are planning
revenge in overwhelming fashion.

at this time each year and corres-
ponds to Founder’s day observances

and military band will add to the gen-
eral festivities. There will be the
usual review of the cadet regiment
followed by the assembly of visitors
and students in the auditorium for
the formal celebration.
Fire Near Centre Hall.
Fire last Friday night destroyed
the large implement shed, shop and
two other outbuildings on the Clyde
Dutrow farm near Centre Hall. The
farm is occupied by John R. Dutrow,
a son of the owner, and none of the
family knew of the fire until apprised
by a number of young men from Cen-
tre Hall who saw the flames and hast-
ened to the farm to render assistance.
But the flames had gained such head-
way that it was impossible to save
the buildings and contents, and it was
only by hard work on the part of the
men that the house and barn were
saved. Everything in the buildings
was destroyed, including two buggies,
a carriage, harness and a lot of farm-
ing implements. The origin of the
fire is a mystery, as no fire or light
of any kind had been about the build-
ings during the day.
Retired Farmer at Woodward Com-
mitted Suicide.
Despondent over ill health and the
fact that his wife has been practical-
ly helpless the past twelve years as
the result of a stroke of paralysis
Jefferson Stover, a retired farmer of
Woodward, committed suicide by
hanging himself in the woodshed
some time last Saturday afternoon.
The body was discovered between four
and five o'clock and it was evident
that he had been dead for some time.
He was 60 years, 3 months and 15
days old and had been a resident of
the eastern end of Pennsvalley all his
life. He was married to Miss Martha
Breon who survives with four chil-
dren, Henry S. Stover, Mrs. Clair
Nicholas, Ebon E. and Lowell, all of
Haines township. Funeral services
were held at his late home at ten
o’clock on Wednesday morning by
Rev. Daubenspeck, of the Lutheran
church, after which burial was made
in the Wolf’s Chapel cemetery.
——Here you are, the finest ever,
to celebrate Hallowe’en. Hot coffee,

Miss Mary Cooney Critically Injured
in Auto Accident.
Miss Mary Cooney, a daughter of
Martin Cooney, was critically injured
. last Thursday evening by being struck
"by an automobile on the state road
between Bellefonte and Milesburg.
' Miss Cooney is a member of a hiking
ciub composed of members of the
' Daughters of America and last Thurs-
i day evening nine of them started on
{ a hike to Snow Shoe Intersection, ex-
| pecting to return to Bellefonte by
i train. They were walking along the
| right hand side of the road about mid-
way between the old Titan Metal com-
pany plant and Milesburg when they
i noticed a car coming back of them
and another coming toward them
{ from Milesburg. Miss Cooney, Miss
| Elizabeth Saylor and Mrs. John Mig-
{ not were ahead walking arm in arm,
and they got as far off the road as
| possible. In fact Mrs. Mignot was in
the ditch and Miss Cooney was just
on the edge of the road but the car in
passing them from the rear, either
i caught her coat and threw her against
| a telephone pole or else she was struck
| by the right rear fender, in any event
' she was knocked down.
| It was quite dark and the accident
i happened so quickly that none of the
| ladies are able to tell just how it oc-
| curred. Those walking in the rear
i saw Miss Cooney fall and promptly
| went to her assistance. She was
found unconscious and there in the
darkness it was impossible to tell how
badly she was hurt. In the meantime
another car came along which proved
to be John Davy, who had been to
Milesburg, and the injured girl was
placed in the car and brought to the
Bellefonte hospital.
In the meantime the car that hit
Miss Cooney only ran a short distance
then turned around and ran back to
the scene of the accident, and it was
then learned that the driver was Fred
Garbrick, son of Mr. and Murs.
Charles Garbrick. He had gone for
a little drive to Milesburg and had
taken Edward Brown with him. The
only explanation he could give of the
accident was that the bright lights of
the car coming toward him had blind-
ed him so that he did not see the
women alongside the road and the
first knowledge he had that he had hit
some one was when Brown called his
attention to a lady’s hat on the fender
of the machine. He then stopped,
turned around and went back. He
also brought some of the hikers to
Bellefonte.
At the hospital it was discovered
that Miss Cooney had suffered very
dangerous injuries, her skull being
badly fractured while she had a large
bruise on her left side and back. At
this writing her condition is consid-
ered critical and it will probably be
some days before the outcome can be
determined.
Bellefonter’s in Auto Accident.
On Sunday afternoon Mrs. J. E.
Ward, with her daughter Isabelle at
the wheel and accompanied by Supt.
Heim, of the Bellefonte silk mill,
College. Up at Dale’s Summit they
met two cars coming this way and as
Miss Ward turned out to allow them
to pass a big touring car also going
toward Lemont, shot in between the
passing cars, caught the Ward car on
both left wheels and overturned it
into the adjoining field. The offend-
ing car was filled with colored people
from Lewistown, the owner being
Horace Tyler, while his wife, Mrs.
Cornelia Tyler, was at the wheel. Of
course they maintained that it wasn’t
their fault but they will have a nice
time explaining just why they at-
tempted to pass with cars on either
side of the road. ;
Mrs. Etters suffered a fractured
collar bone and was taken to the Col-
lege by James H. Potter, who hap-
pened along just as the accident hap-
pened. Mrs. Ward sustained a frac-
tured rib and Miss Isabelle was bad-
ly burned on the face and neck by
acid from the storage battery. Both
to Bellefonte by Prof. Harstine, of the
Bellefonte Academy. The car was
pretty badly wrecked and Mr. Heim
remained with it until men were sent
up to tow it in to Bellefonte.

—Dr. P. McDowell Tibbens, of Beach
Creek, was one of the jurors who witness-

itentiary on Monday morning, having mo-
tored up in the early hours of the morn-
ing. He was accompanied on the trip by
his mother, Mrs. E. J. Tibbens, and a lady
friend, but we don’t mean to infer that the
ladies were also witnesses, as they were
not. But they did make the trip to the
penitentiary grounds and sat in the car
viewing the wonders of the penal institu-
tion while the doctor was discharging his
official obligations. Returning to Belle-
fonte the ladies were brief callers at the
“Watchman” office.
