.;. Escaped Prisoner Recaptured, pees
John H. Walk, who escaped from
the Rockview penitentiary on the
evening of December 30th, was cap-
tured on Wednesday morning at the
home of James Page, who lives at the
site of the old Rock furnace, just out-
side the prison grounds. After Walk
made his escape prison officials were
unable to get a trace of him anywhere
and early this week they got an ink-
ling of the fact that he was in hiding
in the Page home. Before daylight
Wednesday morning guards surround-
ed the Page house and as soon as the
family began to stir around demanded
entrance and a search brought to light
the escaped prisoner. He was brought
to the Centre county jail and informa-.
tion was made against the Page fam-
ily for aiding and abetting, and har-
boring an escaped prisoner.
Walk was one of the prisoners
transferred to Rockview from the
eastern penitentiary several months
ago, having eighteen months yet to
serve of a two to three years’ sen-
tence.

known resident of Milesburg, died
very suddenly at 3:50 o’clock on Sat-
urday afternoon while at work at the

a grate in a stove in one of the shan-
ties at the plant when he fell to the

months and 22 days old. When he

on the freight train, a position he held
until the railroad ceased operations in

American Lime and Stone company
and later for the Chemical Lime com-
pany.
He was a member of the Railway
Conductors association and the I. GO:
O. F. He was a member of the Meth-
man who practiced christianity instead
of preaching it, living not for himself
alone but in sympathetic harmony
with his fellowmen, giving assistance
to those in need to the extent of his
ability so to do.
He married Miss Jennie A. McMul-
len, of Milesburg, who passed away in
September, 1906, but surviving him

Mills; Roy L., of Tyrone; Malcolm H.,
of Milesburg; Philip C.,, of Tyrone;

who deplore his sudden death.
Funeral services were held at his
late home at Milesburg at 1:30 o'clock
on Tuesday afternoon by Rev. M. C.
Piper, and burial was made in the
Treziyulny cemetery.

Boalsburg, and her home at that time
was regarded one of the most hospit-
able in that section.

church of Boalsburg from young wom-
anhood and always a zealous worker
in the Master's cause. Her husband
died last July but surviving her are
the following children: Keller Moth-
ersbaugh, of Williamsport; Charles, of

—1In this day of woman suffrage,
feminine equality and such like leap
year didn’t cut much of a figure so far
as the increase in marriages was con-
cerned. A glimpse at the marriage
license record in the Register’s office
shows that 318 licenses were granted
during 1924 as against 293 in 1923
and 281 in 1922.

——The public schools, the Belle-

State College are all in full swing
again, evidence that the vacation sea-
son is over and notwithstanding the
fact that we are having real winter
weather now spring will be here be-
fore we realize it; ~~
Howard Street to be Protected for
Coasting.
Burgess W. Harrison Walker has
proclaimed that Howard street shall
be the coasting ground for Bellefonte
kiddies and all others who delight in
the sport, and it will be adequately
patrolled and protected from four
o’clock in the afternoon until nine in
the evening. ;
It is naturally a great temptation
to children to go coasting on’ any
street in town, especially now that
all the streets are well covered with a
good bed of packed snow, but it is ex-
tremely dangerous sport, with the
large number of automobiles in tran-
sit at all hours of the day. But the
children must have some place to
coast and because of this fact Howard
street has been designated as a
coasting gorund and the time between
the hours above named. Any one
coasting on any other street will do
so at their own risk.
No Decision Yet in Bank Case.
It was generally expected that up-
on the reconvening of the U. S. Su-
preme court, on Monday, after its re-
cess since the middle of December,
that an opinion would be handed down
in the Centre County Bank case.
A number of opinions were read but
the one of most local interest was not
among them. As to when it will be
forthcoming is a matter of conjecture
only. One guess being as good as
another.
——Members of borough council
are very much perturbed over the fact
that automobile drivers are not pay-
ing proper attention to the new bea-
con lights and signs purchased by the
borough at an expenditure of over
twelve hundred dollars, but only three
of which have thus far been installed.
One of these signs has been erected
at the intersection of south Water and
High streets, one of the most danger-
ous crossings in town. It has been
there now going on three weeks and
the writer has yet to see the first
driver obey to the letter the sign on
the side facing Water street. Some
drivers slow up sufficiently to see that
High street is clear, while ethers show
no regard for the sign or possible pe-
destrians on the crossing. Members
of council are aware of these facts and
somebody is going to be arrested and
fined. Therefore, the reckless driver
might well heed this warning notice.
——William Williams, son of Mr.
and Mrs. George Williams, of Lemont,
and Miss Cora Scholl, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. W. S. Scholl, of Bellefonte,
were married in Williamsport on Mon-
day of this week and left at once on a
motor trip to Florida. They expect to
stay until the latter part of May and
if by that time they find the place a
00d one in which to live will locate.
‘thiére permanently. i
George Allen, who on Tuesday
of last week was sentenced to sixty
days in the Centre county jail by
Judge Arthur C. Dale for failure io
pay ‘a $34 board bill he owes Miss
Martha McKnight, of Bellefonte, was
paroled on Friday on condition he go
to work and earn money to pay the
bill and court costs.

A Hog and Sheep Program.
Swine and sheep breeders of Centre
county are promised a day of good
things in their part of the program of
the Pennsylvania Breeder's and Dai-
ryman’s association meeting in Har-
risburg, January 20, 21 and 22, ac-
cording to H. H. Havner, animal hus-
-bandry extension specialist of State

cially designated as “swine and sheep
day.” Problems relating to both
branches of livestock will be discussed

in animal husbandry work. “Swine
growing as a part of a permanént
system of farming,” is the subject of
a talk to be given by E. E. Russell,
federal swine specialist, of Washing-
ton, D. C. “The utilization of factory
by-products in pork production,” will
be discussed by M. F. Grimes, animal
husbandman of The Pennsylvania
State College. Several breeders who
know will give five minute talks on
“What it takes to grow a ton litter.”
L. C. Madison, swine extension spe-
cialist of The Pennsylvania State Col-
lege, will explain “recent develop-
ments in community swine breeding.”
In the afternoon a joint meeting
will be held with the Pennsylvania
Sheep Breeder's and Wool Grower's
association, of which R. L. Munce, of
Washington, Pa., is president, and W.
B. Connell, of State College, secretary:
This session will be devoted entirely
to questions peculiar to sheep breed-
ing and wool growing. i:
A. R. Hamilton, of Johnstown, will
discuss “sweet clover seed as a pas-
ture crop.” N. C. Dale, of New Cas-
tle, will give “results of six ‘~ars of
“| co-operative wool marketing in Law-
rence county.” R. 8. Clark, of Hunt-
ingdon, will answer the questi:
“does a ram association pay?” “Fit-
ting sheep for show” will be explain-
ed by P. C. McKenzie, of State Col-
lege; and W. B. Connetl, sheep exten-
sion specialist, State College, will con-
clude with “the development of a
sheep program for Pennsylvania.”

Bellefonte Wins from Houtzdale.
The Bellefonte High school basket
ball five defeated the Houtzdale quin-
tette on the armory floor, last Friday
evening, by the score of 25 to 11.
This was the third in the series of
Mountain league games, the Belle-
fonte tossers having won two and lost
one. The Houtzdale boys were entire-
ly outclassed and after twenty min-
utes of play Bellefonte’s regular play-
ers were withdrawn and the substi-
tutes allowed to finish the game.
Best and Emel were the stars for
Bellefonte.
This (Friday) evening the girls will
play the strong Lock- Haven Normal
school quintette. Last year it was an
even break, each team winning one
game. Incidentally that game was
the only game lost by our girls dur-
ing the season. The game will be
played at the Y. M. C. A. and will
start at 7:30.
