is now state highway and all that will
be necessary will he the construction
of one or two connecting links. The

ment of Forests and Waters, where
he had charge of the motion picture
and exhibit work.
———Every man and woman, boy
and girl, requires a certain amount
of relaxation and entertainment every
day and the one place in Bellefonte
where both can be found is at the
Scenic watching the motion pictures.
The house is comfortable in all kinds
of weather and the pictures are of a
superior class, such as cannot be seen
anywhere else in town. Get the movie
habit and see them all.
Beekeepers in Centre county
are anticipating a good crop of honey
this year. Clover tops and honey
laden flowers have been quite profuse
and there has been sufficient wet
weather to give them an abundance
of nectar with a high sugar content.
Last year was one of the poorest sea-
sons for honey ever known by the
apiarists in the county. This was as-
eribed to the long spells of dry, hot
weather, and was also noticeable in
other portions of the State.
| NATIONAL AIR DERBY
WILL STOP IN BELLEFONTE.
Major John T. Fancher Here on Mon-
day to Make Necessary
Arrangements.
civilian airplane fliers will compete
for cash prizes totaling many thous-
and dollars. Preliminary to the races
in Spokane there will be a national
air derby from New York to Spokane
and it is estimated that from fifty to
one hundred fliers will be entered in
the two classes. The route of the
derby from New York to Chicago will
be over the transcontinental airmail
route, and Bellefonte has been select-
ed as a stopping place for all Class
B entries with a possibility that many
of the Class A entries will also stop
here.
Major John T. Fancher, managing
director of the races to be held at Spo-
kane and also the air derby, wasin
Bellefonte on Monday to make the
necessary arrangements for looking
after the ships during the five minute
stop here. The Major flew here from
New York and was met at the avia-
tion field by a good sized deputation
of representative citizens. He was
especially pleased with the size and
condition of the Bellefonte landing
field which he considered admirably
adapted for the first checking in place
of the fliers.
One of the stipulations of Major
Fancher was that the local commit-
tee arrange for an adequate supply of
oil and gas on the field, to be so dis-
tributed that ships can be refueled
without any loss of time. The flight
regulations provide for a five minute
stop here, and all time over that limit.
will be charged up to the flier, soit
is important that when they do stop
they can be supplied with oil and gas
without any delay.
Major Fancher was very optimis-
tic over the outlook for the derby,
which will take place on September
19, 20 and 21, as all ships must be
in Spokane in time for the races
there on th 23rd and 24th. While it
is yet too early to give anything like
an accurate number of the ships that
will be entered in the derby Major
Fancher stated that there will be at
least fifty and possibly three times
that number in the two classes.
The ships will take the air at Mitch-
ell field, N. Y., and the first official
checking in place for Class A fliers
will be Cleveland, Ohio, but if they
run up against a strong west wind
the probability is that many of them
will have to stop in Bellefonte for a
supply of oil and gas to carry them
to Cleveland. As stated above Belle-
fonte has been designated as the first
checking in place for all Class B ships,
and they must stop here whether they
need a supply of gas or not.
The ships will be started cn their
flight from Mitchell field shortly after
five o’clock in the morning so should
begin to arrive in Bellefonte at any
time between seven and eight o’clock.
They may come through in singles, in
| pairs or as many as ten ships at a
y time, so it will be a sight worth see-
| ing.
Only a Few Trout Washed Away.
Various stories have been told in
Bellefonte about the washing away
of many of the trout at the Bellefonte
fish hatchery as the result of the ter-
rific rain storm which swept over the
Pleasant Gap and Axe Mann section
last Wednesday afternoon and even-
ing, but all such reports have been
greatly exaggerated. According to
W. F. Hass Logan’s branch overflow-
ed its banks and the back water in-
undated two or three ponds in which
were kept the small trout. A few
hundred of these, possibly a thousand
the waters receded but there were not
enough of them to effect the supply rt
the hatchery. In fact the number that
was washed away was not sufficient
to be noticeable in the large stock in
the ponds.
Anent trout getting away from the
hatchery there has been a well found-
ed suspicion for some time that some
unknown person or persons have been
slipping into the hatchery grounds at
night and taking some of the large
trout from the storage ponds. These
unlawful visits were made on Monday
and Friday nights and when superin-
tendent W. F. Haas felt convinced
that somebody was stealing his trout
he put a guard on the ponds but the
illegal fishermen were quick to detect
this fact and changed their nights for
visiting the hatchery ponds to Tues-
days and Thursdays. It was only re-
cently that superintendent Hass made
this discovery and so far he has been
unable to catch the illegal fishermen,
whom, it is believed, come from the
neighborhood of Bellwood, Blair coun-
ty.
Two More Prisoners Make the Break
at Rockview.
The big reservoir which is being
constructed in McBride’s gap, on Nit-
tany mountain, is offering a means of
escape to a number of prisoners in
Rockview penitentiary, as two more
made the break for liberty between
one and two o’clock on Wednesday
afternoon. They are Harvey and Fred
Buck, sent up from Bradford county
for burglary and larceny, Harvey for
two to four years and Fred for four
to eight years. The men were con-
vieted and sentenced on June 21st, of
this year, and had only recently been
transferred from Pittsburgh to Rock-
view.

, Temporary Organization of Centre A LITTLE CHIPMUNK
County Motor Club.
Upwards of four hundred automo-
bilists in all parts of Centre county
were represented at a meeting held in
the court house, last Friday evening,
Spokane, Washington, will enter- | for the purpose of organizing a Cen-
tain the National Air Derby associa- tre county motor club. Present at
tion in September when hundreds of | the gathering was Mr. McNelly, field
secretary of the Pennsylvania Motor
Federation, who pointed out the ad-
vantages to be derived from an active
motor club. R. C. Haldeman, presi-
dent, and T. W. Rudderow, general
manager of the State Federation,
were also present and urged organi-
zation.
Motorists present were sufficiently
impressed to appoint a committee on
permanent organization which will
take place at a meeting to be held at
State College on Friday evening,
August 5th, when officers will be elect-
ed and a constitution and by-laws
adopted. At that time it will prob-
ably be possible to tell the exact num-
ber of members enrolled.
The directors met at the Brocker-
tion will have to be ratified at the
meeting on August 5th, were Robert
F. Hunter, John M. Bullock, A.
Fauble, Bellefonte; Guy M. Stover,
James P. Aikens and Frederick G.
Clemson, State College; Newell Long,
Snow Shoe; H. F. Ebright, Centre
Hall; J. C. Fox, Unionville; J. Will
Mayes and Claude Moore, of Howard;
Harry B. Scott, Philipsburg; Wilbur
Woodring and W. P. Sanderson, Port
Matilda; Malcolm Wetzler, Milesburg;
Edward Sommers, Pleasant Gap, and
Frank Hockman, Hecla.
The directors met at the Brocker-
hoff house, on Monday evening and
elected as tentative officers subject
to the approval of the members at
the meeting on August 5th, the fol-
lowing: President, Robert F. Hunter,
Bellefonte; vice president, Wilbur
Woodring, Port Matilda; secretary,
Claude Moore, Howard; treasurer, |
James P. Aikens, State College.
The membership dues for the first
year were fixed at $6.75 and there-
after at $6.00 annually.
Snow Shoe Coal Miners Gradually Go-
ing Back to Mines.
During the middle part of last week
two hundred or more of the striking
coal miners from Morrisdale and
other portions of Clearfield county
marched into the Snow Shoe region
and through means of coercion and
intimidation attempted to induce the
three hundred or more miners of that
section to refrain
sympathy with the strikers.
By Friday the situation had be-
come rather acute and at the request
of the operators sheriff E. R. Taylor
went to Snow Shoe to investigate
conditions. He considered it serious
enough to request the services of
mounted state policemen and three of
these officers were sent into the dis-
trict on Saturday. The daily visits
of the striking miners were not at-
tended with any acts of violence or
infractions of the law of any kind,
but the operators naturally resented
the interference of the striking min-
ers with their men, who were not
only willing but anxious to work.
On Saturday a report was broad-
cast that the region would be invaded
cn Monday by a force of seven hun-
derd strikers, but they did not ma-
terialize.
put in an appearance on Monday and
the authorities believe the situation
now so well in hand that by the end
of this week all the Snow Shoe mines
will be operating as usual.
State Highway Patrolman Arrested
for Aggravated Assault.
Glenn A. Amend, a state highway
patrolman located at Pleasant Gap,
was arrested on Monday on the charge
of aggravated assault and battery on
complaint of Robert Taylor, son of the
late B. B. Taylor, and who now con-
ducts a plumbing establishment at
| the Gap.
The arrest grew out of a mixup fol-
lowing ag automobile accident on Sat-
urday night in which the highway pa-
trolman is alleged to have hit Taylo1
seven times on the head with the butt
end of his revolver. Information was
made against him on Monday and his
arrest followed. At a hearing before |
Squire S. Kline Woodring, on Mon-
day evening, he was held in $1800 bail
for trial at court and being unable at
the time to furnish a bond was taken
to the Centre county jail.
If all the allegations that have been
made in connection with the case are
correct other charges may develop
later.
Forest Tree Seeds Wanted.
The Department of Forests and
Waters desires to purchase and col-
lect large quantities of forest tree
seeds for the State nurseries, from
which seedlings are supplied at cost
for planting on private and State
land. Seeds collected within the
State usually produce trees better
adapted to our soils, climate, etc.
District forester Chas. Hogeland, of
Renovo, wishes to obtain the follow-
ing kinds this fall: White pine cones,
red pine cones, pitch pine cones, red
cak acorns, white ash seeds, black
walnuts with hulls on.
——John R. Bartruff, a former resi-
dent of Bellefonte but now living at
New Bloomfield, has filed nomination
papers with the Secretary of the Com-
monwealth, at Harrisburg, as a candi-

! KILLS BIG RATTLESNAKE.
Chews Hole Into Vitals of Reptilian
Monster then Dies from
Snakes Bites.
Several weeks ago state foresters
in the Allegheny mountains captured
a big rattlesnake and taking it to
Snow Shoe turned it over to the state
highway patrolman to keep until they
could find a blacksnake of suitable
size to match with the rattler in a
reptilian combat. Any one who
knows anything about snakes knows
that the rattler and the blacksnake
are at all times deadly enemies and
the sport loving men of Snow Shoe
were anticipating a lot of fun when
the snakes were matched in a suit-
able enclosure.
But the foresters were a little slow
in finding a blacksnake and the state
patrolman, fearing the rattler might
die from hunger, captured a lit-
tle chipmunk (ground squirrel) and
put it in the box with the snake for
the latter to dine on. The chipmunk
evidently realized that it was meant
for snake food and did its best tc
avoid the jaws of the rattler but the
snake became so vicious in its at-
tempts to catch the chipmunk that it
turned the tables by attacking the
snake in its most vulnerable part.
Clinging to the reptile with its
paws the squirrel chewed a good sized
hole right into the vitals of the snake,
thus ending its life, but the snake also
manazed to sink its fangs into the
chipmunk with the result that it, too,
died, and thus the sport loving resi-
dents of Snow Shoe were frustrated
in their desire to see a real snake
fight. But they are all still wonder-
ing how the little chipmunk was able
to kill the rattler, which measured
four.and a half feet in length.
Evangelical Orphanage Band Delights
Large Crowd Here.
The band from the orphanage of the
Evangelical church at Lewisburg gave
a concert on the court house plaza
here, Tuesday night. Though the or-
ganization was somewhat handicap-
ped by the absence of several of its
stellar musicians the concert was
surprisingly well played. In ex-
ecution and expression the boys
are splendidly adept; especially so
when their youth is taken into con-
sideration. The program was so var-
ied as to give opportunity of inter-
pretation of both the classics and the
modern music and they rendered both
most impressively.
Bellefonte had more than a casual
linterest in the concert, for Edward
{ Miller, a Bellefonte lad, is first cor-
i neter in the organization.
{ The band was reduced to eighteen
| pieces because several of its members
were taken ill and had to be sent
home while on their present tour. We
congratulate director L. A. Albert,
however, on the performance they
{ made without their full complement
i of instruments.
The collection lifted amounted to
about fifty-two dollars.
National Air Transport Lease Ground
for Hangar.
Donald Bartlett, assistant to the
, general manager of the National Air
Transport corporation, which will in
due time take over the government
{airmail route between New York and
{ Chicago, was in Bellefonte over Satur-
day night and while here leased a
: plot of ground from William Smeltzer
on which the company will erect a
hangar of sufficient capacity to house
one if not two emergency planes.
The size of the plot leased is 100x-
160 feet and lies adjacent to the land-
ing field and east of the present gov-
ernment hangar. The ground lease
was made for a period of ten years,
which is evidently the life of the con-
tract the corporation has entered in-
to with the Postoffice Department for
carrying the airmail. Erection of
the new hangar will probably be be-
gun in the near future. Just when
the N. A. T. will take over the con-
tract for carrying the mail has not
been definitely announced, but it is
hardly likely it will be before Septem-
ber first.
