Buffalo Run Presbyterians Vote to Retain House of Worship. Though they have not had a preach- er for two years and no prospect of having one soon the Presbyterians of Buffalo Run valley, at a meeting on Tuesday evening, voted fifteen to one against selling their church. While exact data regarding the his- tory of this church is not at hand, the congregation was organized sixty or more years ago, when Presbyterians were more plentiful in Buffalo Run vallzy than they are now. A church lot was secured on the Benjamin F. Hunter farm and a house of worship built. Between thirty-five and forty years ago the church was destroyed by fire and the present edifice was built opposite the Meyers cemetery on 2 plot of ground secured from the Joseph W. Marshall farm. In the intervening years the church has weathered the storms of being buffeted from one charge to the other, sometimes with the Boalsburg charge and then with the Milesburg and Un- ionville charge. But with each pass- ing year the congregation has dwin- dled until its numbers are small com- pared to former years and it has been two years or longer since they have had regular preaching services in the church. Recently the question arose as to what to do with the church. About the only use made of it now is for holding funeral services for the dead to be buried in the Meyers cemetery, just across the highway. Some of the congregation would like to see the church become the property of the cemetery association and it was be- cause of this sentiment that a meet- ing was called for Tuesday night, September 1st, to discuss the matter. Discuss is all they did at that meet- ing and another meeting was held on Tuesday night of this week. Sixteen people were present and after further discussion a vote was taken and only one person voted to sell the church the other fifteen voting to keep it. A committee of two was then appointed to appear before the Huntingdon Pres- bytery, at its next regular meeting, to see if some arrangements can be made to have the church made a part of some regular charge. If this can be done the little congregation can be held together, otherwise the church may eventually have to be sold. —— Stolen Ford Coupe Located in Altoona. Charles E. Gates, whose Ford coupe was stolen on the streets of Bellefonte early on the morning of September 2nd, was notified yesterday morning by the police department of Altoona that the car has been standing on the streets of that city since last Friday morning. Mr. Gates went to Altoona yesterday morning and drove the car back to Bellefonte. The coupe was stolen from in front of Crider’s Exchange some time be- tween 1:30 and 5 o’clock last Wednes- day morning, and not a trace of it had been found until the notice from the police department was received yes- terday morning. As the car was sim- ply abandoned on the streets of that city there is hardly a possibility of ever discovering who took it, but sus- picion is directed towards two young men who jumped their hotel bill at the Garman house and skipped out at three o'clock last Wednesday morn- ing. The men went to the hotel on Tuesday evening and claimed they were selling carpet sweepers for a Harrisburg firm. They also stated that they were compelled to spend the night in Bellefonte because they had burned out the bearings on their car and had to have them replaced. The men did not retire to their room until eleven o’clock Tuesday evening and got out stealthily at three o’clock Wednesday morning. The men regis- tered from Alexandria but inquiry at that village brought the information that they were unknown there. Of course it is not certain that they stole the car but suspicion points that way. A description of the men has been furnished Altoona police in the hope that the men who stole the car may be detected, if possible, and properly punished. ———————————p essen am—. The Altenderfers to Move to Jersey Shore. About a month ago Girard Alten- derfer, who had been working at the milk shipping station of the Sheffield Farms company in Bellefonte, was transferred to the company’s plant at Jersey Shore, and his position there having become permanent he has de- cided to move there from his present home in Milesburg. Mr. Altenderfer’s father, Martin L. Altenderfer, book- keeper for the Titan Metal company, will accompany his son to Jersey Shore where he also has a position in view. The Altenderfer family came to Bellefonte with the opening of the old Central Railroad of Pennsylvania over thirty years ago and have lived in Bellefonte most of the time since then. Mr. Altenderfer has been prom- inently identified with the Presbyter- ian church and will be missed by the congregation as well as in various other ways. ————————— eee. ——Mrs. Philip Beezer, who recent- ly changed her home on east Bishop street into a duplex, entertained twen- ty guests Thursday night of last week, at a house-warming in her new apartments. Mrs, Beezer is occupy- ing the west side of the house, while she has as tenants on the east side, Mr. and Mrs. Frank M. Mayer, who moved into Bellefonte from Roops- burg, Seven Mountains Man Brewed Beer and Was Arrested. An old-time story is recalled anent the old Foust place in the Seven mountains which every few years is reported as being haunted. The ghost walked in that locality on Wednesday night of last week in the guise of state policemen, who placed under ar- ‘rest Albert Earl, charged with brew- ing beer with too much kick to it. Earl admitted he had been making beer which varied in strength, some of it as high as four per cent. Brungard, of Centre Hall, held him in $1,500 bail for trial at court and in ‘lieu of a bond he went to jail. ——Republican voters, ask any per- son of authority, and they will have to admit that the tax business of Belle- fonte has been the best in twenty-five years. Vote for Herbert Auman.— Political Adv. 36-1t * The Delay in the Centre County Bank Case. In answer to the several inquiries we have had as to why the equity pro- ceeding recently begun in the Centre County bank case was delayed we have made inquiry and ascertained that it has been held up because it was not initiated in compliance with general equity practice. When the bill was presented a time was set for an answer to it and the time designated was before the ad- vertisement of notice to Florence F. Dale and Andrew Breese had been in the papers the iegally required three weeks. The result of the bungle was that they had not received proper le- gal notice by advertisement and did not have to answer. Now the whole thing is in process of being done over again, because a new order of publication had to be ob- tained. — gt ——LKeep the tax collector’s office out of politics by voting for Herbert Auman for a second term, for it is an office of responsibility and is not a po- litical job.—Political Ady. 36-1t * Big Ku Klux Picnic at Hecla Park September 26th. Gigantic, wonderful, reads the an- nouncement of a big Ku Klux picnic to be held at Hecla park on Saturday, September 26th. “The sight of a life- time awaits you,” continues the post- er, in a big program of “sports, drills, contests, concerts, good speakers, cost- ly and gorgeous daylight and night fireworks display, featuring famous set pieces—‘“America,” “The Liberty Bell,” “The Klan Call of 1925,” etc. The program will begin at 10 o’clock a. m,, and the public is invited to go to the park and spend a day with the Kluxers. Ve In this connection it might be men- tioned that on Monday of this week the Klan held a picnic at Harrisburg which was attended by thousands. The members wore hoods and robes but were not masked. Big crowds invar- iably characterize a public gathering of the Ku Kluxers and it will not be surprising if they have the banner crowd at their picnic at Hecla. Wagner’s Mill Burglarized on Wed- nesday Night. The large grist mill of C. Y. Wag- ner Co. was burglarized on Wednes- day night, the safe blown open and about $100 in cash and one check stol- en. The job was evidently the work of professionals, who are probably touring the country in an automobile. They gained entrance to the mill by breaking open the lower door next the railroad, using tools stolen from the railroad tool house close by. The outer doors of the safe were opened without being damaged but the inner doors were blown open with nitroglycerine. Bags of chop and bran were used to deaden the sound. While there is no certainty when the job was pulled off the prebability is it was after midnight, when travel along the highway would be at its lowest ebb. " In making an examination of the blown safe, yesterday morning, chief of police Harry Dukeman found a short end of fuse, evidently of the kind used in blowing the safe. Noth- ing else was discovered that might give a clue to the robbers. ———— el e————— Gold Baseballs Appreciated by Acad- emy Students. During the summer a number of Bellefonte business men raised a fund and purchased beautiful gold souvenir baseballs which they presented to coach Snavely and the twelve men who represented the Academy’s cham- pion baseball team, which won every one of the twelve games played. On the balls was engraved the name of the player and the position he filled on the team. The players and coach were naturally well pleased with this mark of appreciation of their work and requested headmaster James R. Hughes to make due acknowledge- ment. The business men and firms who contributed to the fund are as follows: Montgomery & Co., Finkelstine, Potter-Hoy Hardware Co., Carpeneto, Sim Baum, City Bakery, Mott Drug Co., the Last Resort, Rusbell, Knise- ly’s Restaurant, F. P. Blair & Son, Hazel & Co., Furey & Eckman, J. D. Hunter, J. R. Hughes, The Bon Mot, Brockerhoff House, the Cadillac Co., Bellefonte Lumber Co., Bellefonte Wholesale, Schad, the plumber, and T. Clayton Brown, REPRO Squire Tuesday Will be Primary Election Day. Next Next Tuesday will be primary elec- tion day and the only contest of inter- est generally to the voters of Centre county wiil be that for the highest of- fice in the gift of the people—Judge of the courts. Adhering to its old- time policy the “Watchman” has re- frained from taking issue among the five candidates aspiring to the high honor. The primary campaign is a preliminary bout that must be fought out among the candidates themselves, and the result of the primaries is usu- ally a fairly good criterion not only of the candidates’ popularity but the wish of the voters. The campaign has been a free-for- all for the candidates, without any un- usual outside interference, and up to this time there does not seem to be any “sure thing” candidate. Of course the “Watchman” might make predictions but they would probably be “father to the thought,” so we’ll refrain from doing that. The prima- ries, at most, are purely the elimina- tion contest, the real tug of war com- ing at the election in November. The principal contest in Bellefonte borough is over the office of tax col- lector. Two candidates are before the Democratic voters for their support, Charles Schaeffer and Charles Fromm. Both are good, clean men and either one would make a good collector. Three Republicans want the nomina- tion, Herbert Auman, present incum- bent; Orian Kline and Harry B. John- son. As it looks now the fight is be- tween Auman and Kline, with both feeling confident of victory. In the West ward Miss Sarah J. Love is contesting for the nomination for assessor on the Republican ticket against Edward O. Struble, the first time a woman has aspired to that of- fice in Bellefonte. Struble is also a candidate on the Democratic ticket, | and has for his opponent D. Wagner Geiss. Residents of South Philipsburg Tired of Borough Life. Residents of South Philipsburg have grown tired of borough life and all it entails in the keeping up of streets, schools, water facilities, street lighting, police protection, etc, and are anxious to be unscrambled as a part of Rush township. To this end a petition is being circulated, which will require the signatures of two-thirds of the residents, to present to the court of Centre county praying that the bor- ough charter be annulled and that South Philipsburg be reinstated as a portion of Rush township. : According to the last census the population of the borough, men, wom- en and children, was only a few over five hundred, which means less than two hundred tax payers. The result is that the burden of trying to run the town according to the borough code has become too great to bear, and that is the principal reason for the move to have the town’s charter an- nulled. As it looks now, the required number of signers to the petition will be secured, but it is also predicted that the official paper will not have smooth sailing through the Centre county courts. A number of residents are opposed to being unscrambled and they have signified their intention of contesting the annulment of the char- ter when the time comes. In the meantime the school facilities of South Philipsburg are not adequate to nieet the needs of all the children of school age, and the borough does not havz the money to improve conditions. Etters—Bechdel.—Stanley Etters and Miss Edna Bechdel, both of How- ard, were married at the parsonage of the Methodist church in Bellefonte, on Wednesday morning of this week, by the pastor, Rev. Homer C. Knox. Freight Rates Prohibit Importation of Peaches. The women of Williamsport are complaining because of the failure of the peach crop in Lycoming county and the failure of fruit dealers to im- port peaches from other localities in sufficient quantities to meet the de- mand. The same condition exists in Bellefonte. The few peach orchards located in Centre county were minus fruit this year, and the only peaches brought to Bellefonte were by local fruit dealers who retailed them at anywhere from 25 to 60 cents the doz- en, a price prohibitive for canning purposes. While the peach crop was a total failure in central Pennsylvania, New Jersey had a large crop, in fact so large that the fruit sold in Philadel- phia for 65 cents to $1.25 a basket. Up in Lehigh county, this State, peach orchards were heavily laden with fruit and growers had trouble getting pick- ers sufficient to gather the crop. The New York crop is also quite large but local dealers aver that the freight rates are so high that they cannot af- ford to take the risk of importing peaches to Bellefonte. The price they would have to charge for a basket of peaches would be more than consum- ers would pay, and they are afraid to take the chance. ————— et ———————. Republican Electors.
