a gold ring and a check for $43 were
stolen; the check being cashed the
same evening at Schaeffer’s hardware
store. On Monday Lloyd Fry, of near

the robbery. He admitted his guilt
and returned the watch and ring, but
will have to answer for his crime be-
fore the Centre county court.
Miss Zoe Meek, who will be
pleasantly remembered by many Cen-
tre cauntians through her county-
wide canvass last fall when she was a
candidate. for the Legislature on the
Democratic ticket, is again located
in Philipsburg as an instructor in the
South Philipsburg schools. Miss
Meek taught in that place prior to be-
coming postmistress of Clarence and
it was because of her efficiency at that
time that her services were again
sought by the board of directors.
The burglar alarms on the
Bellefonte banks aren’t in it with the
electric gong at the High school
building when something goes wrong
with the mechanism. Any person who
doubts this statement can have it ver-
ified by asking most any person liv-
ing within two or three blocks of the
school building, who got a very good
idea of the bell’s tenacity on Monday
night. The bell started ringing on or
before ten o’clock on Monday night
and kept it up at about five minute
intervals all night and up until eight
o'clock on Tuesday morning. Elec-
tricians were working on the bell on
Monday evening and must have got-
ten some wires badly twisted or im-
properly connected and the result was
the bell just kept on ringing, estab-
lishing a wonderful record as a sleep
disturber.
JAPANESE RELIEF FUND.
Bellefonte Chapter Red Cross Has
$964.00 in Paid Subscriptions.
A meeting was held in the court
house on Tuesday evening in response
to an appeal of the Bellefonte Chap-
ter of the Red Cross in an effort to!
raise the town’s quota of $1500 for
the Japanese relief fund. The meet-
ing was not as largely attended as it
should have been and the result was
Bellefonte’s quota has not yet been
met. The Red Cross, however, has re-
ceived the sum of $964.00 paid up sub-
scriptions and hope the people of
Bellefonte will respond quickly in
making up the balance of the quota.

The above list represents the actu-

W. C. T. U. Will Hold a Cantata.
The Bellefonte W. C. T. U. will hold
a dra.natic cantata entitled, “The
Coming of Ruth,” during the latter
part of October as a benefit for the
Bellefonte hospital. Mr. W. T. Noss,
of Philadelphia, is here directing the
cantata, which is one of rare beauty
and song. Rehearsals will be held in
the Y.M. C. A. on Monday and
Tuesday evenings of each week and
all who can and will take part are re-
quested to report at the Y. M. C. A.
next Monday evening at 7:30 o’clock.
Mr. Noss had charge of the same
production which was given in Belle-
fonte sixteen years ago, and which
will be remembered as one of the best
musical numbers ever given in this
community.
The object for which the cantata is
to be given is also one which should
appeal to everybody. We all know
the deplorable financial condition that
confronts the hospital owing to the
big cut in the State appropriation and
the W. C. T. U. is taking this method
of doing their bit for the institution.
Everybody who can do so is urged to
attend the first meeting next Monday
evening.
Attacked by Blacksnake.
One day last week as T. Collins
Shoemaker was motoring along the
road in the vicinity of Oak Hall, con-
templating the sale of a Ford car, his
attention was attracted to a large
blacksnake alongside the road. He
stopped his car, got out and threw a
stone at the snake in an effort to kill
it. The stone just grazed the reptile
and quick as a flash it started for Mr.
Shoemaker. Fortunately he was able
to get hold of a big stick lying nearby
and gave the snake a blow that put
him out of the running. He then
killed the reptile, which measured five
and a half feet. Collins brought the
dead snake with him to Bellefonte as
proof of his story.
| ——Tuesday morning was the cold-
est we have had this season in Belle-
fonte, the mercury being down to al-
. most the frost line. Summer will of-
| ficially end one week from today and
the chilly winds of autumn will soon
be an every day occurrence.
: Paul J. Rider, who has been
stock man at the Beatty Motor com.
pany the past three years, has ten-
dered his resignation and next Thurs-
day will go to Pittsburgh and enter
the University of Pittsburgh as a stu-
| dent in dentistry. He will be suc-
ceeded at the Beatty Motor company
plant by John Reish, of Spring Mills.
——Motion picture fans will be in-
terested in learning that manager T.
Clayton Brown has booked quite a
number of especially fine pictures for
release during the autumn and early
winter which will be shown at the
Scenic in addition to the already big
promrams. Some of these pictures
are just in the making while others
have not yet been released from the
studios. Watch the Scenic advertise-
ments and be sure to see all the big
| ones.
— Constable J. S. McKeown,
Philipsburg, brought to the Centre
county jail, last Thursday, H. Gar-
finkle, charged with violating the pro-
hibition laws, and Harold Askey and
Albert Natterer, charged with robs;
bing the home of William Rothrock,
of South Philipsburg. Garfinkle has
been before the court on at least one
former occasion, having been con-
victed of receiving stolen brass and
was sentenced for his latest offense
on Monday.
county will, at the primaries next
Tuesday, nominate J. Frank Snyder
as their candidate for judge of Clear-
field county. Mr. Snyder has no op-
ponent for the nomination and the
only interest that enters into the con-
test at the present time is who his
Republican opponent will be after the
primaries. Two Republicans are after
the nomination, A. R. Chase and Haz-
zard A. Murray, and it will be one of
these that Mr. Snyder will have to
make his final fight with.
Bellefonte Lutherans Will Greatly
Improve Church.
At a congregational meeting held in
the Lutheran church last Sunday the
members voted to expend five thous-
and dollars on improving the exterior
| of their church by the application of
| stucco work. Just what shape, or
what kind of material will be used
i has not yet been decided. In fact a
committee headed by Rev. W. P. Ard
went out to Johnstown yesterday to
look at one or two churches there
which are finished in stucco work.
two of the materials being consider-
ed and a decision will likely be made
in the near future, as it is the wish
of the congregation to have the work
completed this fall. .
In addition to the work to be don
on the exterior of the church about
one thousand dollars will be spent on
improving the basement of the church,
especially as to the ventilation.
Schools and Colleges Opened.
While the Bellefonte public schools
opened on Tuesday of last week the
registration was not completed until
Friday, when it was revealed that the
attendance this year exceeds that of
last year by fifty-five pupils, there be-
ing a total of 958 against 903 last
year. Of the above number 272 are
in attendance at the Brick school
building; 356 in the grades at the Al-
legheny street building and 340 in the
High school. Registration in the
High school last year was 326.
The Bellefonte Academy opened on
Wednesday of this week and while the
registration is not yet complete indi-
cations point to the fact that the
school will be filled up, probably to ca-
pacity. Among the new boys are
many promising athletes, and there
is every likelihood that athletic direc-
tor Carl Snavely will not lack for ma-
terial for his various athletic teams.
From the number of young men and
women who passed through Bellefonte
in a continuous stream for a week it
is evident that State College was
crowded to capacity when it opened
for the fall term on Wednesday.
Change of Time of Red Cross Clinic.
The Red Cross nurse, Mrs. Merrill
Hagan, after a month’s vacation, re-
turned to duty September first and
spent a week at the Grange picnic
with Mrs. Maude Jones, Red Cross
nurse of State College. All the activ-
ities of the Red Cross health centre
will be continued as usual, except a
change in hours for the Well Baby
clinic. This will hereafter be con-
ducted from 3 to 4 p. m., with a phy-
sician in attendance from 3 to 3:30.
Dr. LeRoy Locke will have charge of
the clinic during the month of Sep-
tember.
There are now seventy-five babies
under observation and mothers who
have not had their babies to the clin-
ic should take them to be weighed,
measured and looked over. Not only
babies but children under school age
are welcome. A class in home hy-
giene and care of the sick will be
started at an early date and will be
open to any one desiring the course.
The diphtheria clinic will be con-
tinued for several weeks longer that
an opportunity may be given to par-
ents wishing the toxin-antoxin inocu-
lations for their children. There
were six new patients this week and
permit blanks may still be secured
from Miss Daise Keichline, east Bish-
op street, Bell phone 198-J.

Four State College Students Injured
in Auto Accident.
On Saturday evening six State Col-
lege students were on their way to
Bellefonte in a big Cadillac car and
in the neighborhood of the Daniel
Grove farm they attempted to turn
‘out to pass another car when their
own car skidded and overturned into
the ditch by the side of the road. Two
of the young men escaped with only a
bad shaking up but the other four
were injured and were picked up by
passing motorists and brought to the
Bellefonte hospital. They are Theo-
dore Cunningham, who sustained lac-
erations of the scalp. Raymond Ache-
son, lacerations of the scalp and bruis-
es. Frederick Artois, lacerations of
the scalp, contusions of the elbow,
with an X-ray examination necessary
to determine extent of injury. The
young man has also been spitting
blood. The fourth student is Eiias
Hawkins, who sustained a fracture of
the left leg above the knee. The acci-
dent happened about 8:15 o’clock.
A Ford car driven by a Mr. Shuey,
of Houserville, and a Chevrolet car
crashed together on the state road be-
tween Bellefonte and Milesburg, on
of Saturday evening, both cars being
pretty badly damaged. None of the
occupants of the cars, however, were
seriously injured.
Offenders Plead Guilty and Sentenced.
At a specizl session of court on
Monday morning H. Garfinkle,
brought to the Centre county jail from
Philipsburg last week, plead guilty to
having sold intoxicating liquor and
was sentenced to pay a fine of $500
and undergo imprisonment in the
— The Democrats of Clearfield county jail for a period of one year.
Tony Luke, also of Philipsburg,
plead guilty to the charge of driving
a car while intoxicated, running into
another automobile and not stopping
to ascertain whether anybody was
hurt. He was sentenced to pay the
costs of prosecution and undergo im- |
prisonment in the county jail for a
period of three months to date from
the time he was brought to the coun-
ty jail, about three weeks ago.
Emory Hough, who lives near Mor-
risdale, plead guilty to the charge of
driving a motor car in Philipsburg
while intoxicated. Inasmuch as it
was his first offense the court sus-
pended sentence on his promise to
pay the costs and abstain from drink
in the future.
Early in August Mr. and Mrs. John :
Radzynski, of Rush township, were
arrested for making and selling lig-
wor. The man plead guilty to the
charge on August 7th and was sent
to jail for three months. On Monday
Mrs. Radzynski was called before the
court and questioned in regard to her
conduct since her husband was sent to
jail. She declared that she had stop-
ped making whiskey and was trying
to support her children, but it was a
hard job. The court in discharging
her stated that the overseers of Rush
township should assist the woman so
she can send her children to: school.
He also intimated that her husband
might be paroled before the expira-
tion of his sentence, so as to support
his family.
Cattle Dying on the Mountain.
For many years it has been the cus-
tom of farmers in Bald Eagle valley
to turn their young cattle out to pas-
ture on the Allegheny mountains dur-
ing the summer season. During the
past four or five years cattle owners
in the lower end of the valley, espe-
cially in Curtin, Howard and Liberty
townships, have lost many head
through some unknown disease, and
this season is again bringing its toll
of death. According to a statement
from a well known resident of that lo-
cality twenty or more head of cattle
have already died.
The disease seems to be extremely
fatal as the animal generally dies in-
side of twenty-four hours from the
time it shows signs of ailing. In past
| years veterinarians have endeavored
to locate the disease without avail
and the only means of saving the cat-
tle was in taking them out of the
woods.
lowed this year.
Edward Fiddell Will Face Court.
One of the quarter sessions cases
which will come up for trial at the
regular term of court week after next
will be that of Edward Fiddell, for
escaping from the western peniten-
tiary and complicity in the attempt-
ed escape from the Centre county jail
early in August. It will be rather in-
teresting to hear the prisoner’s de-
fense in the matter of breaking and
escaping from the western peniten-
tiary. He left that institution in com-
pany with several other prisoners and
was captured a week later in Chicago,
Ill., his old home city. After being
brought back and incarcerated in the
Centre county jail he became ex-
tremely abusive and was rather ex-
travagant in making threats against
everybody who had anything to do
with his arrest and detention.
In the attempted jail delivery on
August 2nd Fiddell played a very mi-
nor part, but it is the general opin-
ion that his was the master mind that
planned the affair, which failed of suc-
cess principally through the bravery
of the sheriff’s wife and daughter. If
Fiddell persists in his determination
to stand a jury trial, there is little
doubt of his conviction, and such be-
ing the case he will likely be given the
limit the law allows.
