DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL TICKET FOR PRESIDENT ALFRED E. SMITH, of New York FOR VICE PRESIDENT JOSEPH B. ROBINSON, of Arkansas. DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET. For Congress T. E. COSTELLO, of Bradford Fur Representative in General Assembly ANDREW CURTIN THOMPSON, of Philipsburg ——When Judge Fleming was get- ting off his facetious reference to Governor Smith’s brown derby, at a local banquet a few nights ago, we wondered whether he might have been giving a sly dig at the sartorial in- vestiture of our Congressman. Not- withstanding the fact that our very erudite friend and guest singer of long ago, Bill Scullin, of Tyrone, used to advertise that “the apparel oft proclaimeth the man” we don’t be- lieve a word of it. Often we have seen “Crow” Brown diked out in just such a braided cutaway or English walking coat—or whatever it is call- ed nuw—as the Judge was wearing when he “called” Al's brown derby, but never had we seen a Congress- man dressed under the eligibility age until, deaf as we are, we heard the noise the Hon. J. Mitchell Chase’s ap- parel made in, the Brockerhoff lobby last Thursday night. —An item in the news of last week piqued our curiosity. a lot. It was the announcement that one of the dry sleuths who bought some of that won- derful pre-war liquor at the Hotel Stenton, in Philadelphia, had posed as “Col. Theodore Boal,” an attache of the French Legation at Washington. Of course we know he wasn’t our Col. Theodore Davis Boal, but we just don’t get the idea of a dry sleuth posing as “Terry.” ———— eee. ——The investigation of the Vare- Wilson Senatorial election has pretty clearly established two facts. One is that elections in this State are notor- iously corrupt and the other that a good many politicians are willing to perjure themselves. Governor Smith assures the public that any changes in the tariff schedules that will be approved by him will be for the benefit of the people rather than in the interest of monopoly. Se ——Mayor Mackey is now using the pulpit to persuade the people of Philadelphia that corruption in poli- tics and grafting officials are instru- ments of righteousness. a ——The hot weather of last week may have been uncomfortable to some but not sufficiently so to make the av- erage person wish for mid-winter temperatures in October. EL ——The Legislature might possibly provide properly for State College, but it would be wise to vote for the constitutional amendment and get on the safe side. : i ——If Pittsburgh and Philadelphia vote as present signs indicate the electoral vote of Pennsylvania will be as certain for Smith as that of Geor- gia. — lp ———— —Possibly it would be as well to limit the expenditures of the State Highway Department to the revenues derived from automobile activities. i ——For the first time in history the school teachers of Pennsylvania have been “maced” by the Republican machine for campaign purposes.

During his college career he took a prominent part in all kinds of atheletic sports, and was particularly strong in baseball and football. For several years he was shortstop on the college ball team and a halfback on the football team. Dur- ing his summer holidays he played baseball for the love of the sport, and any country team that could enlist the services of “Chauncey Bill,” as he was more familiarly known, felt well fortified to meet all comers. On leav- ing college he joined the Franklin ball team and in 1895 was drafted by’ the Pittsburgh National league club. SCHOOL TEACHERS HEAR VERY INSTRUCTIVE TALKS. Large Attendance and Much Interest Shown in Institute Proceedings. Over three hundred school teachers have been in attendance at the 82nd annual teachers institute, held in Bellefonte this week, and all of them have displayed a keen interest in the various talks given by the well known and able instructors on the program. All of Monday morning was taken up with enrolling the teachers so that the first session was held on Monday afternoon. Following the regular de- votional exercises, county superin- tendent Rogers made a brief talk in which he counseled the teachers to be prompt and regular in attendance at every session, expressing the hope that each one of them would be able to get much of profit as well as pleas- ure out of the week’s program. The first speaker of the institute was Mrs. Fadra Holmes Wilson, of California Teachers college, who talk- ed on Democracy in the teaching of ! history. She emphasized the point that the ultimate object in teaching BIG TIME COMING 5 6 AT PLEASANT GAP. "WOMEN VOTER'S BANQUET - HAD LARGE ATTENDANCE.

The Woman’s Civic club of Pleas- ant Gap is sponsoring a Hallow-een Carnival for that place on Thursday and Fridey nights, October 25 and 26. It will be held in the Jodon sale barn and will be just as eerie as such a spooky occasion can be made. There will be mirrors to look in over your shoulder to see the man or wo- man you are going to marry, there will be apple peelings to cast and curl into the initial of the person whom fate has picked for you and there will probably be corn to husk with a red ear and its kiss prize somewhere among the stalks. On Thursday night Wetzler’s Junior band will be there to entertain. On Friday night the masquerade will be held and valuable prizes given for the best costumes. In addition to the arrangements for appropriate revelry there will be refreshments such as the ladies of banquet, at the Brockerhoff house, last Thursday evening, and all were taken.

Mrs. Robert Mills Beach, as chair- man of the revivified League, presid- ed as toastmaster, and threw the meeting open to the invited speakers with only one restriction, and that, time. Otherwise they were given unbounded liberty to talk without be- ing circumscribed by frills of any kind. : The first speaker introduced was the Hon. J. Laird Holmes who spoke on the work of the General Assembly at Harrisburg. Following him the Hon. J. Mitchell Chase, nominee to succeed himsel fin Congress, was in- troduced. Congressman Chase spoke on his work in Washington and had just gotten to the point where he was about to pay a compliment to the la- dies when the toastmaster rang the history is to so instruct the child that as a grown man he will not only real- ize but feel the meaning of the term | Democracy. The second speaker was former Governor Martin G.

On Tuesday Dr. Brumbaugh was called away to attend the funeral of a personal friend and his period was filled by Dr. Charles Lose, who talk- ed on the emergencies of discipline. He told the teachers to be firm, but kind, and never lose control of them- dren out of mischief is to so arrange their work so they will always be oc- cupied at something interesting, and they will then have no time for any- thing else. Mrs. T. R. Robb made a very in- teresting report on last year’s State Educational Association convention. Several interesting sectional meet- ings were also held at the High school building on Tuesday morning. Mrs. Wilson discused the question of “Forward Look on Education.” She said the world of science, elec- tricity and social life changes faster than we can take care of it. We are ually. The thing that the world needs most is human interest. On Tuesday afternoon Dr. Brum- baugh was back on the job and gave a splendid talk on the basis of mod- ern culture. Dr. Charles C.

The snake mada its appearance on south Water street where an automobilist tried to run it down but it was too quick for him and wriggling off the street crawled beneath the Busy Bee restaurant’s barbacue stand. The autoist notified Harry Kramer and he and Mr. Miller, proprietor of the Busy Bee, routed the snake from beneath the barba- cue and dispatched it with a shovel. Where the snake came from is a mys- tery, but was probably unknowingly hauled into town on a load of hay or may have been curled up in an auto- in interest with those early in the bile and dropped off on Water street. The final talk on Wednesday morn- ing was by Mrs. Wilson, who, in dis- cussing the educational value of story telling, told of the Acadians and Cre- oles of Louisiana. On Wednesday afternoon Miss Ella Levy, of Milesburg, and Miss Ward of Philipsburg, were chosen delegates to the State Educational Association convention. Limited space prevents a detailed account of institute proceedings, but the sessions yesterday were on a par week. The institute will close with this morning’s session. Miles Township Farmer Arrested for Killing Deer On Farm. Nathan Haugh, a young farmer of Miles township, was arrested by game wardens Thomas A. Mosier and Miles Reeder, on Monday, on the charge f killing deer that were destroying crops on his land and failing to re- port the same within forty-eight hours. By his own admission, at a hearing before S. Kline Woodring, on Monday afternoon, Haugh admitted that he had killed some ten or twelve deer from the middle of September up to the present time. Under the law he had a legal right to kill the deer if they were destroy- ing his crops, providing he reported the same to the game protector with- in forty-eight hours. But the law al- so specifically states that failure to report the killing is cause for legal action and subjects the man making the kill to a fine of $100 for each deer killed. While Mr. Haugh admitted that he had killed some ten or twelve deer the game wardens were disposed to be as lenient as possible, under the circumstances, and agreed to place the number at five. Consequently a written agreement was made whereby Mr. Haugh agreed to pay the sum of five hundred dollars fine and costs, a total of $515, and Squire Woodring gave him until yesterday to arrange for the payment. cash by Pinge 35—O0ld Dutch Cleanser, 5 movie tickets by Richelieu theatre, 36—Mutt and Jeff, 10 movie tickets by Richelieu theatre. 37—Two (2) best fairies, 10 movie tick- ets by Richelieu theatre.

The visitor's only score was made in the first period and af- ter that State had the better of the Three game. times State was within scoring distance but lost out, on each chance. In the last three minutes of play State had the ball within three inches of the Buck- nell goal line, after a straight marcn of seventy yards. Fullback Hamas was elected to take the ball over and when it was snapped back to him he either muffed or fumbled it and it went to Bucknell on downs. The lat- ter promptly kicked out of danger and the game ended shortly after. Up at Altoona the Altoona High school defeated Bellefonte High by the score of 18 to 0, the first time in four years that the locals lost to the Mountaineers. In the beginning of the game Bellefonte started in with a vim and marched right through the Altoona team, but the latter quickly took a brace and Bellefonte crumpled. From that time on they were on the defensive most of the time. The only local team to win was the Bellefonte Academy which downed the Navy plebes, at Annapolis, 12 to 0.

The body of Daniel Stimer, 34 years ; missing, was found by a freight crew jon the Bald Eagle Valley railroad, ‘about a mile east of Hannah Fur- nace, at an early hour on Sunday morning. The conductor of the train notified local authorities and an ‘n- vestigation resulted in finding the head lying along the track some dis- tance from the body. Coroner Heaton, of Philipsburg, was notified and he made an investiga- ition of the cause of the tragedy. From what could be learned it ap- . pears that Stimer was in Port Matil- : ida, on Saturday evening, and later started to walk to his home at Han- nah Furnace, about four miles dis- tant. According to his usual custom he walked along the tracks of the | railroad.
