NEWE ABOUT TOWN AND COUNTY.
——A little daughter was born to
Mr. and Mrs. William Kline on the
morning of Memorial day.
——John W. McKelvey, of Hazle-
ton, son of the former pastor of the
Bellefonte Methodist church, will be
graduated from Dickinson college this
week. He took second honors in his
class and special honors in Latin.
——Four boys were arreted at Phil-
ipsburg, last week, for stealing second
hand automobile tires, and a man and
a woman were also placed under ar-
rest for buying the tires from the
boys. All were held for the Septem-
ber term of court.
Centre county gasoline deal-
ers paid into the State Treasury dur-
ing the first quarter of 1926 the sum
of $12,437.60, as tax on the gas dis-
spensed to automobile drivers. This
was the largest amount ever paid in
one quarter in Centre county.
——The prolonged dry spell in
Bellefonte and Centre county was
finally broken on Sunday night with
sufficient rain to moisten the top of
the ground, and with showers on
Tuesday. Of course we could stand
more of it but are thankful for what
we did get.
Two Susquehanna league ball
games will be played here next week.
Thursday, June 10 at 5:15 p. m. Lock
Haven will be our opponents. On Sat-
urday, June 12, at 3:15, the Kew-
Bees will try to give the leading Big
Springers a set back. 35 cents will
‘be the admission to each game.
More than a hundred members
of the Catholic church and Knights
of Columbus motored to Altoona, cn
Sunday afternoon, to be present at
the laying of the cornerstone of the
Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament.
It was an history making epoch in the
Altoona diocese and upwards of ten
thousand members of the church were
present. .
——The borough has taken a lease
on the ground on south Water street
where the old laundry was located
and is having it leveled and put in
shape as a parking place for cars
when motorists desire to stop and
‘view the big fish in Spring creek.
‘This will do away with the congestion
on that street by the parking of cars
along the pavement.
——Last Thursday afternoon Miss
LaRue Schaeffer, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Harvey Sscheffer, took several
girl companions for an auto ride in
the family Ford roadster. Up at Le-
mont the fair driver collided with a
truck and sustained slight injuries.on
her face by being thrown against the
‘windshield. None of the other girls
were injured while the Ford was only
slightly damaged.
——At the annual conclave of the
Grand Commandery, Knights Temp-
ler, held at York last week, Boyd A..
Musser, of Scranton, was advanced
at the election of officers from grand
generalissimo. to’ grand . deputy com-
mander, which means that at the con-
clave next year he will reach the
‘height of his ambition in being raised
‘to grand commander. Mr. Musser is
a native of Centre county and for a
.a number of years was a resident of
Bellefonte.
——-The next lecture to be given
‘under the auspices of the local branch
of the Intermediate Bible Students’
association will be in the court house
next Tuesday evening, June 8th, at
8 o'clock. The speaker will be H. H.
Dingus, of New York, and his subject
“Why World Powers are Tottering—
‘the Remedy.” Mr. Dingus is a Bible
scholar and regularly assigned to the
staff of the association’s lecturers.
‘The public is invited to attend and
hear him. No collection will be lifted.
The righteous and the wicked
alike walked in darkness in Bellefonte
on Wednesday evening, and it was
not of their own choosing, either.
During the hard storm about six
o'clock the high power electric line
of the Penn Central Light and Power
company was broken over at Corn-
cropts Mills, in Huntingdon county.
As this was the line which serves the
Keystone Power corporation not a
bit of juice flowed into Centre coun-
ty and the result was a complete shut
down of both light and power. Lamps
and tallow candles were much in de-
mand and it was some time between
twelve and one o'clock before the line
‘was repaired and electricity turned
on.
——Students of nature and lovers
of wild animals who failed to attend
the Christy Bros. show, in Bellefonte
last Friday, missed one of the best
. animal exhibitions shown in Belle-
fonte in many years. Christy Bros.
are a California combine and this is
their first trip through the east. The
fact that they were unknown here
and not as widely advertised as they
might have been are probably the rea-
sons they were not patronized to
capacity, as the big tent was not
crowded at either the afternoon or
night’s performance. And this, not-
withstanding the fact that they gave
a splendid street parade at noon. From
dogs to elephants, lambs to Lions,
the performance was a wonderful ex-
hibition of the power of man over the
wild denizens of the forest. Every
person who saw the show had only
words ‘of commendation for it, and if
‘the Christy Bros. come back to Belle-
fonte next year they are sure to draw
a good crowd.

Miss Mary Solt Struck by Auto but
Only Slightly Injured.
Last Friday morning Miss Mary
Solt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Solt, of Axe Mann, came to Bellefonte
to see the circus. In the course of her
meanderings she started to cross
north Water street from High street
bridge to the Potter-Hoy hardware
store just as Edward Hoover came
along in his automobile. Miss Solt
did not see the machine and stepped
right in front of it with the result
that she was pushed down but grab-
bed hold of the axle and held tight,
Mr. Hoover stopped his machine with-
in three feet and jumping out helped
to pick the girl up. He offered to
take her to the hospital but she insist-
ed she wasn’t hurt and stayed in town
until after the parade. A bruise on
her shoulder was the only injury she
suffered. ;
YOUNG VETERANS HONOR
OLD SOLDIER DEAD.
American Legion in Charge of Mem-
orial Services on Monday.
Many people motored to Bellefonte
on Monday for the annual Memorial
services, a custom so well established
by precedent through the three score
years since the end of the Civil war
that it is almost religiously adhered
to in every city, town and hamlet in
the country.
The exercises in Bellefonte were
in charge of the Brooks-Doll post of
the American Legion, who are carry-
ing on the work of their veteran fore-
fathers. Inthe forenoon they march-
ed to the Catholic cemetery where
exercises were held and the graves of
deceased soldiers decorated and mark-
ed with flags. Rev. Father Downes
made the address.
Services in the Union cemetery
were held at two o’clock. The parade
formed on Allegheny street and on
the march to the cemetery included
the color bearers, six G. A. R. veter-
ans in automobiles, the last remnant
of the once strong and flourishing
Gregg Post; the Odd Fellows band,
American Legion, Troop B, Bellefonte
camp P. O. S. of A., Troop No. 1 Girl
Scouts, twenty-four in number, and
members of the Logan and Undine
fire companies.
At the cemetery the American Leg-
ion held the services according to
their own ritual, and the memorial
day address was delivered by Rev.
Robert Thena.
At State College on Monday Major
General Charles H. Muir, commander
of the Keystone (28th) division dur-
ing the world war in France, was the
memorial day orator. The regiment
of student cadets and world war vet-
erans joined in holding the services,
which were quite impressive.
Balloonists Forced Down by Shortage
of Gas.
Four United States navy baloonists
from the naval base at Lakehurst, N.
J., out on an observation flight, were
forced down on the Mabel Shearer
farm, near Centre Hall, on Friday
morning because of a shortage of gas
in their balloon. The men were
Lieuts. R. N. Miller, Carl E. Shum-
way, John C. Curtin and Ensign
James Bell. They left Lakehurst on
Thursday and sailed westward with
the current until five o’clock on Fri-
day morning when they lost their
bearings and came down near Mill-
heim.
At the time they noticed their gas
supply was becoming low but throw- |
ing away some ballast they again
took to the air. On nearing Centre
Hall it became apparent that they
could not sail much further so they
landed: on the Shearer farm. After
a good, warm breakfast at the Shear-
er home they deflated their gas bag,
brought it to Bellefonte and shipped
it back to Lakehurst, the men return-
ing to that base by train.
Bellefonte High Atheletes Won Sec-
ond Place in Clearfield Meet.
The Bellefonte High school track
and field team failed to win the big
interscholastic track and field meet
at Clearfield, on Monday afternoon,
but they took second place among
eighteen teams, which is a record
they have no cause to blush about.
State College won the meet with 37
points to their credit while Bellefonte
was a close second with 34 points.
