Susquehanna University Students
Play Horse with Medicine Show
and Capture Selinsgrove Police
Force.
Selinsgrove’s police force was de-
moralized last Friday, the result of
the worst student outbreak in the
history of Susquehanna University.
The chief of police, constables and
more than twenty deputies were
trounced severely by the students. As
a result of the riot, two ‘students,
Daniel Means, of Pittsburgh, and
Russel Roof, of Lewistown, were held
in $500 bail each.
According to students it all came
about through a medicine show now
playing an engagement there. “Pro-
fessor” Jones, the head of the show,
it is alleged, passed insulting remarks
about the college, which led the stu-
dents to make an effort to break up
the show and ship it out of town.—
About: fifty students marched to the
grounds about 9 o’clock Thursday
night. They were met by chief of
police Romig, high constable Maury
and several other constables, who had
deputized about twenty men and tak-
en them in advance to the grounds. .
When the two forces met, fists and
rocks were said to have been used
freely. The fight lasted several hours
and finally ended with the students
victorious. In the meantime, nearly
every resident of Selinsgrove and
about 200 students from the college
campus had congregated at the
grounds to witness the conflict.
The wrangle about the medicine
show had been going on for several
days, and the ire of the students was
worked up two nights ago when the
chief of police attempted to arrest
four students for disorderly conduct
in front of the National hotel. He was
unsuccessful, but the attempt anger-
ed the students and is said to have
led to plans for raiding the show.
Amundsen Goes Over the Pole in the
Dirigible “Norge.”
Captain Ronald Amundsen, Lincoln
Ellsworth, Captain Oscar Wisting and
Lieut. Oskar Omdahl, of the crew of
18 of the dirigible Norge arrived at
Nome, Alaska, from Teller, 75 miles
northwest, in the launch Pippin, at
five A. M. on Sunday. The Norge
reached Teller from Spitzbergen via
North Pole at 8 A. M. Thursday.
The Pippin was dragged 14 miles
to open water, over the frozen bay
of Port Clarence at Teller before it
could put off for the trip down the
coast of the Behring sea. It was a
cold and gloomy voyage.
Captain Peterson piloted the little
launch in which the quartet left at
night to complete the voyage orig-
inally planned for the airship from
Spitzbergen to Nome. A small band
of natives and whites from Nome.
greeted the trans-polar flier when
they arrived at Snake River, seven
miles west of Nome.
Amundsen, a Norwegian, was lead-
er of the flight; Ellsworth, an Ameri-
can, second in command, and Omdahl
and Wisting especially charged with
landing the Norge.
The remaining 14 men comprising
the crew were left at Teller with the
big dirigible which has now been de-
flated. It is to be made ready for
shipment by steamer to the United
States.
The Norge landed at Teller 71
hours after having left Kings Bay,
Spitzbergen on Tuesday. The air
voyage took the dirigible across the
North Pole where the explorers drop-
ped the flags of three nations.
After word was received of the
passing over the Pole, it was report-
ed the dirigible was seen early Thurs-
day near Point Barrow, the most
northern point of Alaska. From
Thursday until early Saturday no
messages were received from the
Norge. It was feared then that a
storm might have carried the dirig-
ible far from the Alaskan coast.
Newspapers Finance Health Program.
Old newspapers, the bane of the
housewife’s existence, and generally
considered the most useless things in
the world, are financing a program
for better health among the pupils
of thirteen public schools of Milwau-
kee, Wisconsin.
The members of the Junior Red
Cross in that city have collected and
sold newspapers for the last three
years during the annual clean-up
week, and have realized $3,000 each
year from the sales. After purchas-
ing play-ground equipment and drink-
ing fountains for the schools, the
Juniors decided to employ a Red
Cross Nutrition Worker. The Nutri-
tion program for the thirteen schools
has been in operation now for some
time, and is having a marked influ-
ence on the health of the children.
Coach Predicts End of Scouting in
Football.
Football scouting some day will be
outlawed by the principal educational
institutions of the country, in the
opinion of Marc C. Catlin, coach of
Lawrence college football. When
scouting, particularly in football, has
been abolished athletics will have
been placed on a much higher plane,
Catlin says.
The present parctice is kot only
costly, he points out, but it defeats
the elementary purpose of athletics.
“Athletics are intended to develop
the mind as well as the body,” he
contends. “Under the system now
employed the player does not have to
exert his intellectual powers to any
great extent. It is a battle of wits
between coaches, not players.”

how rapidly the small catalpa trees
grow into post size.

High Scheol Football Schedule.
The athletic management of the
' Bellefonte High school has arranged
for a ten game football schedule for
next fall. The first two dates are
still open but the balance of the sched-
ule is as follows:
October 9—Altoona High at -Altoona.
October 16—Mount Union at home.
October 22—Altoona Catholic High at
home.
October 30—Jersey Shore at Jersey Shore.

Dog Catching.
Although detailed records are kept
of each dog captured, the volume of
the work carried on is such that an
occasional injustice may be done. In
Greater New York, lethal gas is ad-
ministered to an average of one hun-
dred and fifty dogs every day. More :
than thirty thousand cats were killed |
in one month.
The poor youngster who cannot af-
ford a license, and whose dog is dis-
covered off the leash, is undoubtedly
a frequent victim. The S. P. C. A.
leves, however, that its methods
avert suffering for the greatest pos-
sible number. Automobiles, hunger,
the elements, and disease would take
a more painful toll than the gas tank.
. This, of course, does not console the
individual owner, whose pet has been
taken up as “strayed” or beacuse of
reported viciousness. At each of the
four “shelters” and pounds maintain-
ed in New York, many a youngster :
and many a woman has wept over the
loss of a four-footed friend. Some-
times a man will rub away a tear, too. !

Have You
Uric Acid Trouble?
Many Bellefonte Folks are Learning
How to Avoid It.
Are you lame and achy; tortured
with backache, and rheumatic pains?
Feel nervous, depressed, and all-
played-out? Then look to your kid-
neys! When the kidneys weaken uric
acid accumulates, poisoning blood and
nerves, and many mysterious aches |
and ills result. Help your kidneys
with a stimulant diuretic. Use Doan’s
Pills! Your friends and neighbors
recommend Doan’s. |
H. P. Saylor, mechanic, Valen- }
tine St., Bellefonte, says: “My kid- |
neys were in poor condition and I had |
to get up several times at night to |
pass the secretions which contained
sediment. A sharp pain in the small
of my back felt like a knife thrust and |
I could hardly get up or down. When
I began to feel tired and worn-out all |
the time I knew my kidneys were out
of order. I used Doan’s Pills and they |
rid me of all signs of the complaint.”

“Long Distance,” then and now
The first public demonstration of “long distance” telephone conversa-
tion was held in November of 1876 between Boston and Salem, fifteen
miley apart. At both points were posted notices commanding absolute
silence of those present, lest the experiment fail.
As lines were established between more distant cities, the struggle with
“outside” and “inside” noises increased. Those who used the toll
service in the Nineties and even later will recall how they had to shout
to drown out the buzz and crackling on the wires, if possible.
In fair weather, all went well—sometimes. But the storms of winter, and
even of ummer, pur the crude lines out of service in wholesale fashion.
It is not unnatural that fifty years of telephone history should have marked
great progress in these respects.
That the ordinary tone of voice now carries to the Pacific or to Cuba
perhaps causes no public wonder—certainly not so much as to the thou-
sands of technicians who worked so many years against great obstacles
to accomplish it.
We are fast approaching a practically storm-proof plant in Pennsylvania,
in which over three million miles of exchange wire and a quarter of a
million of toll wire are now in cables.
In many ways not consciously observed by the users of the service it is
being surrounded by continually increased protection and dependability.
And today, greater effort is being made along these lines than at any
previous time in our fifty years of history.
