Dr. Sebring’s Ford Coupe Burned.
Last Friday evening Dr. John Se-
bring had a call to attend a patient
on Beaver road, west of Julian. When
within a mile and a half of his desti-
nation his car, a Ford coupe, began to
fill up with smoke and he stopped to
make an examination. Hardly had the
car come to a standstill when it burst
into flames and as he had no means of
extinguishing the fire he was com-
pelled to see it go up in smoke. He
walked the rest of the distance “0 the
house he was to visit and when he re-
turned only the skeleton of his car
remained, and this was towed back to
Bellefonte the next day. The only
explanation he can assign for the fire
is that he had put some kerosene in
the radiator and some of it had leaked
out and caught fire.
Who Was This Woman?
The Houtzdale Citizen is authority
for the story that on Saturday, No-
vember 17th, while several men were
hunting in the vicinity of the old
Campbell place along the Tyrone road,
they came across a mound of freshly
turned earth. Being curious they
started to dig and very soon uncov-
ered the body of a woman, who had
evidently not been dead many days.
Two bullet holes in the body were ev-
idence of the cause of death. The
woman, it is claimed, was well dress-
ed and wore several hundred dollars’
worth of jewelry. As no woman in
that locality is missing the finding of
the body, if true, is probably another
of those inexplicable mysteries.
BARTLEY.—Elmer E. Bartley, for
the past eleven years a well known
and much respected citizen of Belle-
fonte, died at his home on Valentine
street at 5:45 o'clock on Monday
evening, following a short illness
with angina-pectoris.
He was a son of William and Cath-
erine E. Bartley and was born in Un-
ion county on August 6th, 1867, mak-
ing his age 56 years, 3 months and 20
days. His early life was spent at the
home of his birth but eleven years ago
he came to Bellefonte and for eight
years worked for George M. Gamble
at his flouring mill. On December
27th, 1894, he married Miss Ella May
Stover, who survives. They were not
blessed with any children of their own
but raised two, Mrs. Elmedia Sum-
mers, of Tyrone, and Fred, of Reno-
vo. His parents are dead but he
leaves the following brothers and sis-
ters: Howard Bartley, of Bellefonte;
Irvin, of Chicago; James, of Nittany;
Charles, of Marion township; Alice
and Frank, of Bellefonte.
At the early age of fourteen years
Mr. Bartley became a convert to the
Christian faith and united with the
church in the locality where he then
resided. On coming to Bellefonte
eleven years ago, however, he became
a member of the Evangelical church,
remaining a consistent and devoted
member until his death. In his church
life he was called to many offices of
duty, all of which he filled with cred-
it to himself and the cause he repre-
sented. He was also a member of the
P. O. S. of A. and Knights of the Gol-
den Eagle.
Funeral services were held in the
Evangelical church at ten o’clock yes-
terday morning by the pastor, Rev.
Reed O. Steely, followed by brief
services by the P. O. S. of A. Inter-
ment in the cemetery at Zion was in
charge of the Knights of the Golden
Eagle.

NOLL.—James B. Noll died at his
home at Pleasant Gap at an early
hour yesterday morning after an ill-
ness lasting over a period of five years
or more with rheumatism and conse-
quent complications.
Deceased was a son of Emanuel
Noll and a brother of the late Col.
Emanuel Noll of this place. He was
born in Nittany valley about sixty-
five years ago, but lived most of his
life at Milesburg where he married
Miss Charles, a daughter of Samuel
Charles then one of the best known
men of that town.
He was a lime burner, one of the
best in this section and after years
with the American Lime and Stone
Co., went to Pleasant Gap to become
inspector of lime for Whiterock quar-
ries. He built himself a home there
and continued at his professian until
the trouble that caused his death in-
capacitated him and compelled his re-
tirement.
He is survived by his second wife
and four children: Prof. Irvin O.
Noll, of Lansdowne; Harry, of Pitts-
burgh, and Gilbert and Pauline, at
home.
No arrangements had been made
for the funeral at the time of going
to press, but interment will probably
be made at Milesburg, where other
members of his family are buried.
Mr. Noll was a man among men.
One of highest integrity and splendid
citizenship.

ZEIGLER.—Mrs. Myra R. Zeigler,
wife of Josiah T. Zeigler, died at her
home on Reynolds avenue at 6:20
o’clock on Saturday morning follow-
ing a lingering illness as the result
of a complication of diseases.
She was a daughter of Joseph and
Catherine Stone and was born at
Pleasant Gap on May 27th, 1860,
hence was 63 years, 5 months and 28
days old. On July 16th, 1882, she was
united in marriage to Mr. Zeigler and
they made their home at Pleasant Gap
until eight years ago, when they mov-
ed to Bellefonte and this place had
been her home ever since. She was
the last member of her father’s fam-
ily, but surviving her are her husband
and four sons, Charles, living near
Bellefonte; Clarence, of Bellefonte;
Edgar, of Juniata, and Homer, of
Clearfield. ho
She was a life-long member of the
Methodist church and Rev. E. E. Mc-
Kelvey had charge of the funeral
services which were held at two
o’clock on Monday afternoon, burial
being made in the Pleasant Gap cem-
etery. i
Il I
McCLELLAN.—Mrs. Anna MecClel-
lan, widow of David McClellan, died
at her home in Milesburg on Tuesday
evening, following a prolonged illness
with asthma and other complications.
She was eighty-six years old and was
twice married, her first husband hav-
ing been James Robb. She is sur-
vived by six children, James Robb, of
Union county; Daniel McClellan, of
DuBois; Edward and Harry McClel-
lan, of Milesburg; George, in Ohio,
and Mrs. Philip Hall, of Snow Shoe.
Burial will be made in the Advent
cemetery today.

——The banks, the postoffice and
the stores faithfully observed Thanks-
giving yesterday. In the afternoon
many High school students accompa-
nied the football team to State Col-
lege for their last game of the sea-
son with the High school team of that
place. In the evening the Bellefonte
Academy students held their annual
Thanksgiving dance in the Bush Ar-
cade hall and a private dance was
held in the hall the Undine fire
company building, on Bishop street.
A Number of Minor Auto Accidents.
Last Thursday morning Mr. and
Mrs. T. S. Strawn, of Pittsburgh, who
motored in to Bellefonte earlier in the
week and were guests at the Brocker-
hoff house, accompanied by landlord
M. A. Landsy, started on a drive to
Lewistown in Mr. Strawn’s big Pack-
ard car. Reaching Pleasant Gap they
evidently forgot about the narrow
guage railroad of the Whiterock quar -
ries until they saw the dinkey engine
with a string of loaded cars close to
the highway. Mr. Strawn was too
close to the railroad to stop and there
was no side street so he stepped on
the gas and tried to beat the train
across the track.
He almost succeeded, but not quite.
The dinkey engine caught the left
side rear fender and threw the ma-
chine around against the bank at the
right of the road. The right rear
wheel was smashed, both rear fenders
and the steering rod broken. Fortu-
nately, however, none of the occu-
pants of the car were injured to any
extent, but the car had to be hauled
in for repairs.
Last Wednesday W. Harrison Walk-
er Esq., and Eben Bower drove to
Johnstown on a business trip and re-
turning home on Thursday morning
Mr. Walker’s car skidded on a hill at
Stoyestown and upset. Mr. Walker suf-
fered an injury to one arm and shoul-
der, but as no bones are broken it is
not serious. Mr. Bower escaped with
a slight shaking up. The car was
enough damaged that they did not
undertake to drive it home but tele-
phoned for Robert Roan, who drove
out and brought them to Bellefonte.
On Friday evening Budd Tate was
down at Milesburg with the C. F.
Tate truck and drove right into the
rear of one of the big Emerick bus-
ses. The bus was very little damaged
but the truck was pretty badly wreck-
ed. No one was injured.
Result of Red Cross Enrollment.
Total amount collected in the Red
Cross membership enrollment was
$940.60 with 428 members enrolled.
Of this amount $44.10 is from Junior
Red Cross members enrolled in the
schools as follows: Allegheny street
building, $21.50; Bishop street build-
ing, $12.15; Parochial school, $5.00;
Bush Addition, $2.11; Coleville, $3.34.
Fifty cents out of every member-
ship, excepting juniors, goes to Na-
tional headquarters, hence $214.00
goes to Washington, leaving $726.60
for the local nursing service. This
will not be enough to finance the serv-
ice through another year but the com-
mittee plan to continue the service
until the money is used and hope that
enough regular contributing members
may be secured to put it on a perma-
nent basis. At the present time there
have been s0 many demands on the
public it seemed
tempt this now, but in the late win-
ter the matter will again be put before
the public. In the meantime, acquaint
yourself with the work of the nursing
service and be prepared to state an
intelligent and unbiased opinion from
your own observation.

Pasqualine Presta Taken to Danville.
Pasqualine Presta, the young Ital-
ian woman who on Sunday, Nov. 18th,
stabbed Joseph Carvelli and later was
adjudged of unsound mind by a lu-
nacy commission appointed by Judge
Henry C. Quigley, was taken to the
Danville asylum on Sunday by sheriff
Harry Dukeman. The young woman,
who is probably twenty-eight years
old and rather comely, accepted her
fate without protest, though some of
her own countrymen have put forth
the claim that her mind is not unbal-
anced, and the stabbing of Carveili
was the result of the young woman’s
learning that she was not legally mar-
ried to the man.
State College Young Man Appointed
Cadet to West Point.
As the result of a competitive ex-
amination held recently by the Civil
Service Commission at Clearfield, Pa.,
of candidates for appointment as ca-
dets to West Point military academy,
highest marks respectively were made
by John I. Thompson, of State Col-
lege; Thomas J. Lewis, of Karthaus,
and Richard A. Goheen, of Boalsburg.
Congressman W. I. Swoope has, there-
fore, nominated Thompson for ap-
pointment as cadet; Lewis as first al-
ternate and Goheen as second alter-
nate.

Tuberculosis Christmas “Seals Now
on Sale.
The sale of tuberculosis Christmas
seals will begin today, November 30,
This has been erroneously confounded
with the Red Cross drive but the two
are separat® and under the direction
of different organizations, local and
national. Before the war, the Red
Cross appeared on these little X-mas
sketches because the Red Cross or-
ganization was not carrying on a defi-
nite program and permitted the Tu-
berculosis association to sell the seals
as Red Cross seals and use the money
for tuberculosis work. Now the dou-
ble-barred’ red cross stands for the
tuberculosis association which has en-
larged the scope of its work from
merely looking after active cases of
tuberculosis to a preventive-educa-
tional program. In Bellefonte, for
two years, proceeds from the sale of
X-mas seals have been used to pay a
dental hygienist, who worked in our
schools two months last year and has
just completed two months this year
in which time she cleaned the teeth of
235 children in Bellefonte and of 30 in
Milesburg. Besides financing the hy-
gienist, the tuberculosis committee
has guaranteed, from the seal sale,
$100 for rent of room used Tuesday
afternoons by State tuberculosis clin-
ic.
Make a habit of sticking one of
these seals on every letter and pack-
age you send from this time until
X-mas. It makes a bright spot on
your letters and aids the fight against
tuberculosis.
Times Are Changing.
Each succeeding Christmas season
eclipses the past one in the amount
of fine furniture sold for gift giving.
Furniture is the prized and appreciat-
ed gift—for the individual or family
—and by all odds the most useful and
enduring gift for the home. Hand-
some overstuffed living room suits in
Mohair, tapestry and velour, or reed
and tapestry, add new charm to the
parlor or library. A matched dining
room suit, along with a tea-wagon to
help serve the well basted turkey. A
colonial four-poster bed room suit for
the guest chamber. Make mother re-
member X-mas every day of the year
by saving her miles of footsteps with
a Hoosier kitchen cabinet. Sister or
sweetheart will be disappointed un-
less she receives that hope chest of
Tennessee cedar. Big brother will be
pleased with a chiffurobe or smoker’s
cabinet. Don’t forget Dad. He would
appreciate a large comfy chair, or a
Globe-Wernicke sectional bookcase.
While for the kiddies are doll car-
riages, child’s rockers and high
chairs, cribs and baby strollers, and
toy cedar chests.
Individual gifts of toy and table
lamps, gate-leg and end tables, spin-
et desks, Windsor chairs and rockers,
candlesticks, foot-stools and card ta-
bles. All these and many more quaint
articles can be found in the largest
holiday stock ever assembled at
W. R. Brachbill’s Furniture Store.

Centre County Farm Products Show.
The Centre county farm products
show will be held this year on the day
of the annual meeting of the Farm
Bureau, Saturday, December 22nd, at
the court house, Bellefonte. Due to
the early date of the Grange fair at
Centre Hall, this will be the only real
farm products show in the county,
the Centre Hall fair being too early
for a good exhibit of farm products.
The exhibits this year will include
corn, wheat, barley, oats, potatoes,
apples and eggs. The quantity re-
quired for each exhibit will be, corn,
10 ears; wheat, oats and barley, 1
peck; potatoes, 1 peck; apples, plate
of five; eggs, one dozen.
Uniformity is the thing most im-
portant in selecting a good exhibit of
farm products. This includes unifor-
mity in size, shape and color, and al-
so freedom from disease.
As in the past years the best ex-
hibits will be forwarded to Harrisburg
to represent Centre county at the
State farm products show in January.
Attractive premiums have been of-
fered for both the county and State
show, hence every farmer should take
this opportunity to exhibit the best of
his farm products.
