Conclusion of May Court.
| Most of lrst Thursday’s sessions of
case of the Commonwealth against
Wm. Austin and wife, colored, of Rush
township, charged with violating
the prohibition law. According to
testimony submitted Austin has been
a persistent trouble maker over in that
section of the county for several
years but has always managed to
evade the law. Some time during
April, however, the officers managed
to obtain indisputable evidence and a
raid was made on his home but Austin
got away. Several days later he was
arrested, and both he and his wife
held for court. A verdict of guilty
was returned against both of them
and Austin was sentenced to pay a
fine of $500, costs of prosecution, and
imprisonment in the county jail for a
period of two years. Mrs. Austin was
given a similar jail sentence but pa-
roled on condition she leave the coun-
ty within thirty days and stay away.
Timeco Kakeluch and wife were also
found guilty of violating the prohi-
bition law, the husband being sent to
jail for three months and the wife pa-
roled on condition she pay the costs
in the case.
Herman Wyles, convicted of larceny
and attempted rape, was paroled for a
period of two years, on condition he
pay the costs in the case.
It’s Fine.
The Bon Mot ice cream machine is
now working daily in the window of
the popular confection resort next
door to this office. Some time ago we
noted the contemplated installation of
this expensive and perfectly sanitary
device for manufacturing cream and
ices. All who look may know that the
product served at the Bon Mot is as
clean and wholesome as the most
modern machinery operated in full
view of every customer can make it.
We sampled the first output of the
freezer and better ice cream we have
never eaten. Rich, creamy and deli-
cately flavored it certainly was a re-
freshing and delectable dish.

al merit. All admirers of this well
known actor should not fail to see him.

be shown every evening during the

good pictures that you would enjoy
seeing.

ninetieth birthday anniversary on
Wednesday at the home of her son-in-
law, W. T. Noll, at Linden Hall. Her
maiden name was Mary Kuhn and she
was born and raised in Harris town-

Hoy Hardware company, of Belle-
fonte, motored over to Lewistown in
his Ford coupe, last Saturday after-
noon, on business and had a narrow
escape from serious injury in an auto
collision at intersecting streets. Mr.
Potter’s car collided with a big car
coming out of a side street. One or
two small bones in his left hand
were fractured but the driver of
the other car escaped injury. Both
cars, however, were pretty badly
damaged. Mr. Potter spent the night
with friends in Lewistown and was
brought home on Sunday.
——Some time ago enthusiastic
members of the Methodist Sunday
school, in Bellefonte, decided that the
primary department was much in need
of a piano and a campaign was at
once started to solicit funds for the
purchase of same, Miss Hazel John-
son being in charge of the work. She
‘had raised over two-thirds of the
amount of money needed when last
week she received a letter from Hugh
N. Crider stating that he had learned
of her efforts toward raising money
sufficient to purchase a piano and sug-
| gested that she divert the money al-
i ready secured to some other purpose
| and he would present the primary de-
partment with a piano as a memorial
to his mother. The offer was most
gratefully accepted and members of
the Sunday school are very apprecia-
tive of Mr. Crider’s generosity.
—— Under a new plan just announc-
ed by president Rea, of the Pennsyl-
million employees of that corporation,
will be offered the opportunity to buy
the securities of the company on the
installment plan, by paying a small
amount down and the balance month-
ly, either by direct payment or having
the installment deducted from his or
her pay check. In addition to the reg-
ular pension granted by the company
its employees may now take out more
insurance against old age or accident
by the same plan of payment and en-
ter a building and loan association or-
ganized by employees to secure their
own homes. The matter of monthly
payments in any of these opportuni-
ties to save will cause the employee
no annoyance, as it has been arranged
that they can either be deducted from
the monthly pay or paid in cash to any
station agent of the company.
