Building Big Impounding Dam for
Rockview Penitentiary.
Because the reservoir in McBride's
gap is not large enough to furnish an
adequate water supply for Rockview
penitentiary work has been started
on the construction of a big impound-
ing dam on McBride's run, in Me-
Bride’s gap, about a third of a mile
deeper in the mountain than the pres-
ent reservoir.
The breast of the dam, which will
be constructed at one of the narrowest
and most advantageous places in the
gorge, will be almost two hundred
feet in length and forty feet in height.
It will be of stone and concrete and
will be deeply anchored in the moun-
tain at each side of the gorge. When
completed it will dam the water back
about a third of a mile and have a ca-
pacity of from eight to ten million
gallons, or sufficient for the needs of
the penitentiary for years to come.
Michael Hazel is in charge of the
preliminary work and has on the job
from sixty to seventy inmates and two
big steam shovels. As the dam is be-
ing built on the stream from which
the penitentiary draws its present
water supply extra precautions are
being taken against contaminating
the stream. A small impounding dam
has been built further up the run and
temporary pipes, two four inch and
one six inch, have been laid to convey
the water around the new workings
and connect with the main water pipe
which feeds the penitentiary. It will
probably take several months to build
the dam but penitentiary officials hope
to have it completed before cold
weather sets in.
——A slight fire at the home of
Brady Rider, at Coleville, about eight
o'clock yesterday morning, called out
the Undine pumper just as the firemen
were getting ready to go to Hecla
park for their annual picnic. The fire
was quickly extinguished without do-
ing much damage and the Undines
got back in plenty of time to go to
the park.

M. F. Broderick Dies from Injuries
Sustained at Rockview
Penitentiary.
M. F. Broderick, of Bellefonte, for
more than eleven years chief electri-
cian at the Rockview penitentiary,
died at the Centre County hospital, at
2:35 o'clock last Friday afternoon, as
the result of injuries sustained be-
tween nine and ten o’clock the same
morning. Mr. Broderick was watch-
ing the unloading of a carload of
iron pipe and a stone crusher for use
in constructing the new impounding
dam. With him at the car were Mi-
chael F. Hazel and Joseph McGowan,
of Bellefonte, and some four or five
inmates of the penitentiary. Mr.
Broderick was sitting on the corner
of the car and as the big crane was
swung around the dog on the rachet
wheel at the bottom of the crane slip-
ped from position and the boom, a
stick of timber forty feet long and a
foot square, fell and caught him on
the right hip, crushing the entire low-
er portion of his body. The boom
just narrowly missed Joe McGowan
and the cable of the boom struck Mr.
Hazel on the right arm, tearing the
sleeve of his shirt down to the elbow.
An examination of the dog and rachet
wheel after the accident failed to dis-
close any defect and how it came to
slip is not known, as no one was near
enough to it to pull it out of position.
Mr. Broderick was brought to the
Centre County hospital as soon as
possible, but it was very evident that
his injuries were fatal and he passed
away in the afternoon. :
Maurice Francis Broderick was a
son of Maurice and Marie Spellman
Broderick and was born in Montgom-
ery county on September 14th, 1888,
hence was not quite 38 years old. As
a young man he took a course in elec-
trical engineering and he came to
Centre county in 1914 to do the wir-
ing and install the death chair in the
death house at Rockview penitentiary.
His work completed he was offered
the position of chief electrician at the
institution, which he accepted, going
to work Feb. 1st, 1915, and for the
eleven years he had been in charge
the great institution had no more de-
voted or conscientious attache. He
directed all of the electrical installa-
tion, both for mechanical and lighting
purposes and the perfectly satisfac-
tory results are mute testimony of his
skill as a master electrician. Person-
ally Mr. Broderick was a retiring, yet
very conpanionable man of sterling
qualities, devoted to his family and
his work. .
On June 22nd, 1918, he mar-
ried Miss Helen Crissman, of Belle--
fonte, who survives with one son,
Frank Broderick. He also leaves two
sisters, Mrs. Teressa Jardell and Miss
‘Katherine Broderick, both of Phila-
He was a member of the
delphia.
Catholic church and funeral services
were held in the church at ten o’clock
on Monday morning by Rev. Father
Downes, burial being made in the
Catholic cemetery.

Men of judgment, vision, knowledge
are needed. All progress, all accon:-
plishment depends on them. As our
civilization becomes more complicated
and inventive genius overcomes old
difficulties and conceives new and
marvelous processes for lessening
man’s labor, thereby increasing his
leisure, the character of men must
grow proportionately or we will de-
stroy ourselves.
Life must move to a higher ethical
and spiritual level—men must be
more highly trained animals. They
must be full of human sympathy and
understanding.
It is to this high purpose the Young
Men’s Christian Association is dedi-
Appeal
cated, helping boys and young men to
assume greater responsibilities in a
rapidly complicated existence. You
can support no more worthy cause.
Funds are needed to carry on the
work already in progress in Belle-
fonte and to expand the service to
more boys and young men. Today
there are over a million members en-
rolled in the Young Men’s Christian
Association activities. There should
be ten million. Lack of facilities, of
funds, of vision, of understanding
holds back the work.
Give all you can. Youth needs it,
wants it, should have it. You will be
repaid in a finer civilization.
Bellefonte Ball Team Won Two
Games Last Week.
The Bellefonte baseball team is not
down and out, as was evidenced last
Thursday when they defeated the
league contenders, Jersey Shore, by
the score of 5 to 2. The game was
played on Hughes field and a good
crowd of fans was on hand to see the
victory. Not ‘content with defeating
Jersey Shore, Bellefonte motored to
Mill Hall, on Saturday, and turned
the trick again by defeating Mill Hall
3 to 2. Two victories in succession
are ordinarily enough to make most
any amateur team feel kind of ches-
ty, but we hope the local players will
not allow it to go to their heads. Hav-
ing demonstrated what they can do
they should all stick together and play
the game for a winning streak and
the possibility of landing in first place
at the close of the second period.

MONSELL. — Mrs. Sarah Helen Clearfield County Men Caught Fish-
ing Illegally.
About ten o’clock last Saturday
night sheriff E. R. Taylor was
off” that there was a party fishing il-
‘legally in the Bald Eagle, near Holt-
‘er's bridge, below Curtin. Taking
with him his son Richard, Toner Ai-
| key and one or two other men, he went
| down the valley and caught five Clear.
field county men using lights while
' gigging for fish.
They turned out to be J. Thomas
‘small mining village near Osceola;
{Frank Kenny, of Brisbin; Arthur
Wilkes, of Osceola, and John Rodkey,
of Houtzdale. They had already tak-
len 12 trout and 51 suckers when sher-
"iff Taylor stopped their illicit sport.
The men were all brought to jail
and held until Monday morning when
they were given a hearing before
Squire S. Kline Woodring. Warden
, Mosier charged all of them with fish-
ing with an illegal device and three !
| with fishing without a license. On the
‘charge of fishing with an illegal de-
‘vice each was fined $27 and for fish-
ing without a license J. Thomas
{ Wilkes, George Wilkes and Frank
Kenney were each fined $28 in addi-
tion, making their fines $55.
The men paid most of the sum and
were released on the surety that the
balance would be forthcoming. in-
| stanter. :
Had the sheriff waited two hours
he might have caught them fishing on
Sunday. In such a predicament their
fines would have been all of the above
! plus $25 per man for fishing on Sun-
‘day and $10 per trout, or $120, for
taking trout out of season. The trout
season ended that midnight.
There has been much illegal fishing
“in the Bald Eagle this season. Nets
of all kinds are being used and in the
| vicinity of where this crowd was
caught dip-net poles are said to be
concealed in the weeds everywhere.
Will be Married This Morning.
At 8 o'clock this morning George
Johnston and Mary Margaret Taylor
will be married in the Evangelical
church in this place. They will be at-
tended by Joseph Johnston, a brother
of the groom to be, and Miss Eleanor
Chandler. Only the immediate fam-
ilies of the young couple will witness
the ceremony which will be performed
by the Rev. Reed O. Steely.
Mr. Johnston is a son of Mrs. Anna
Johnston, of this place, and for some
years has been connected with the
clerical force of the Potter-Hoy Hard-
ware Co. The prospective bride is a
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William C.
Taylor and is an accomplished and
charming young woman.

his motor for their honeymoon trip
which will be made to Cleveland,
Akron and other Ohio points.

been appointed passenger trainmaster
of the Pennsylvania railroad in Phil-
adelphia. Mr. Schroyer is a son of
Hayes C. Schroyer, of Narbeth, Pa,

Schroyer began his railroad career as
a rodman in 1910, in the maintenance
of way department, Philadelphia.

plication to his work wherever locat-
ed.
——A large crowd of people from
Bellefonte and surrounding communi-
ty went out to east Howard street,
last Friday evening, to see the mem-
bers of Troop B in an exhibition drill,
preliminary to the big rodeo to be held
by the cavalry during the encampment
at Mt. Gretna ten days hence. The
performance of both men and horses
showed careful and remarkable train-
ing, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that the troops’ riders will give
a good account of themselves in the
rodeo.
Many people from the country
motor to Bellefonte most every even-
ing in the week to attend the movie
shows, and they all know that the best
pictures can be seen at the Scenic.
Every film shown there is an up-to-
date and late release of the leading
studios in this country. The music of
that wonderful pipe organ is also an
added attraction worth hearing. If
you are not a regular patron get the
habit. :
A number of people from
Bellefonte and Centre county attend-
ed the official celebration, at Cumber-
land, Md., last Friday, which marked
the completion and opening of the
Horse-Shoe trail. Congressmen,

Shortly after the noon hour, on
Tuesday, John Snyder made his es-
, cape from Rockview pehitentiary and
at 1.45 o'clock yesterday morning he
was captured on the State highway
, between Martha and Port Matilda by
. deputy warden W. J. McFarland, as-
sistant deputy C. C. Rhoads and sev-
eral guards. He was brought to
| Bellefonte and landed in the Centre
county jail.
Snyder, who was sent up from
, Cameron county for two to four years
, for breaking and entering and larceny,
, was one of a gang hauling in wheat
,on the Jacks farm, near Rock. About
1.30 o'clock on Tuesday he sneaked
away from the barn and ducked into a
nearby cornfield, hot-footing it across
the Barrens for Buffalo run valley.
Guards were hot on the trail and were
able to trace him over to Bald Eagle
mountain.
On Wednesday night Penitentiary
officials were notified by A. Y. Wil-
liams, the tower operator above
‘Julian, that a man passed there who
he believed was the escaped prisoner.
Several guards were sent to Port
, Matilda to come down the valley and
| others went up the valley and at 1.45
o'clock yesterday morning they caught
‘their man walking west on the State
, highway. .
He offered no resistance and after
getting into the car asked deputy
Rhoads how far he had gotten from
the penitentiary. When told about
, eight miles he said that it seemed like
eighty and all mountains. He had
had nothing to eat but berries from
the time of his escape until re-cap-
tured.
ANOTHER ONE ESCAPED.
Following the recapture of Snyder
another man made his escape yester-
day forenoon. He is Clifford Guth-
rie, of Fayette county, serving a term
fof fifteen months to a year and a half
for larceny and entering. He got
away from the guards while working
on the impounding dam in McBride's
gap. He is 3b years old, 5 feet 9%
inches tall and weighs 155 pounds.
He is dark complexioned, bushy hair
mixed with gray and walks with a
slight limp. He is a native of West
Virginia.

Summer Graduation at State College.
The third annual sammer com-
mencement at The Pennsylvania State
College will take place on Thursday
evening, August 12th, when about six-
ty students will be graduated.
Full convocational ceremonies will
: be observed at that time. The speak-
er will be Dr. Edward Griggs, well
known author and lecturer, who will
also conduct the special composite
course in: English:all of next week in
‘the Institute ‘of English + Education,
one of the outstanding features of the
Penn State summer session. The de-
grees will probably be conferred by
Judge H. Walton Mitchell, president
of the college board of trustees.
Practically all of the graduates will
be young men and women who have
been enrolled in four-year courses
but who have qualified for early grad-
will be followed by the annual sum-
mer commencement musicale given by
students of music and those in the
new Institute of Music Education.
New Bus Mail Route will Start Next
; Monday.
Offiicial notice has been received at
the Bellefonte postoffice that the con-
tract for carrying the mail by bus
from Tyrone to Bellefonte, via War-
riorsmark, Pennsylvania Furnace,
Pine Grove Mills and State College,
has been awarded to Samuel R, Mus-
ser, of Pine Grove Mills, and that the
new service will be inaugurated Mon-
day morning, August 9th. Only first-
class and newspaper mail will be car-
ried.
——The boys band of the Tressler
orphans’ home, at Loysville, will come
to Bellefonte on their twelfth annual
tour on Wednesday, August 18th, and
give a concert on the band stand in
the rear of the court house. Coming
to Bellefonte, as these boy musicians
have, every year, they are not strang-
ers and their musical ability is so well
recognized that they always draw a
large crowd. The mere announcement
of the fact that they will be here on
the above date is sufficient to assure
for them a good audience.
——George Harshberger, a tenant
on the Gray farm in Half-moon town-
ship, was given a hearing before
"Squire Keichline, in this place, Tues-
day, on a charge of assault and bat-
tery on the persons of Mrs. Belle H.
Mattern and her son Eugene. Both
prosecutors claimed they had been
struck on the hand by stones thrown
by the defendant. He defended by
claiming he was not near them on the
days stated. He was bound over for
court on a $500 bond, which he fur-
nished.
——The fine spirit that prevails
in our fire department was shown
Wednesday night when the Logans
turned out to help advertise the Un-
dine picnic. An amusing incident of
the parade was the way Wetzler’s
band yanked the Undines back to their
fire house after they had escorted the
Logans to theirs. Playing one of
their snappiest quick steps they made
a lot of the fat firemen step like they
haven't done since the days when they
pulled their own apparatus to fires.
