Leaving Lake- hurst at 7:18, eastern standard time. on Sunday morning, the flight to Germany was made in 67 hours and 34 minutes, landing there at 2:52 eastern standard time on Wed- nesday morning. ? The Graf not only caused excite- ment here in its voyage east, Thurs- day morning of last week, but proved a super-excellent advertising medium for Bellefonte. In fact while it was passing over Bellefonte the wireless operator was in communication with the radio station connected with the Byrd expedition at Little America, in the Antarctics, according to a special cable dispatch sent by Rus- sell Owen to the Chicago Daily News. Mr. Owen said: “Our radio station was in direct communication with the Graf Zep- ' pelin, last night, on the last part of its flight. Carl Peterson, who was on the night watch, got in touch with the big ship while it was over Belle- fonte, Pa., and talked for some time with Freund, one of the Zeppelin’s wireless operators. “He also transmitted direct to the |ship the message of Commander Richard E. Byrd to Dr. Hugo Eck- ' ener, congratulating him on the suc- | cess of the around-the-world trip. i After Freund had taken the mes- sage he asked Peterson to wait a i minute, and soon returned with word ‘that the airship’s commander and Capt. Sir George Hubert Wilkins were both asleep.” So that is the only fly in the oint- ment, that the world-renowned com- mander was asleep when he flew ov- er Bellefonte and hence was unaware of his air visit to this historic place. Bellefonte, however, was given a place in the official log of the ship's flight as compiled by the Associated Press, according to eastern daylight time, which is as follows: THURSDAY, AUGUST 8. 12:39 a. m.—Left Lakehurst, N.

George is said to have been a bit “pickled” and got i.to an al- tercation with his nephew, Albert Gilliland. The fight that resulted was rather hard on the fixtures and some other patrons in the diner. | ——A Dblow-torch that he was trying to charge nearly ended the ‘life of Alex I. Greninger, well known merchant of Tylersville, Clinton on Wednesday. The torch and the burning gasoline completely enveloped him for a few moments.

T ——The Labor day celebration held by the John Ashley Dennis post of . American Legion, at Philipsburg, drew a big crowd and the program of sports was unusually interesting and closely contested. The Ameri-; can Legion drum and bugle corps, of Bellefonte, attended and won first prize for organizations of that kind. Philipsburg defeated Clearfield in the final game of the C. and C. league season, and Bellefonte defeating Houtzdale the same day left Clear- fild the pennant winners. —Antoinetta Ciccarelli, 14 year old daughter of Michael Ciccarelli, pro- prietor of a hotel in Lock Haven, has confessed that she has set the place afire many times. The girl said she started the fires for the thrill it gave her. Three separate fires broke out in the hotel on Tuesday and suspicion pointed to Antoinetta. When ques- tioned she admitted setting fire to bed clothing in five rooms of the ho- tel located on three separate floors. Shortly after they had extinguished the first fire, firemen were called back to fight another blaze in sever- al beds. Then a fireman was detail- ed to watch the hotel and in a little while another fire burst out on the third floor.

On Wednesday of last week, dur- ing the Grange encampment, rabbit breeders from various sections of central Pennsylvania held a meeting at Runkle’s hotel, Centre Hall, and organized the Central Pennsylvania Rabbit and Cavy Breeder's associa- tion. Officers were elected and a committee appointed to prepare a set of by-laws for the government of the association which will be presented for adoption ata meeting tobe held at State College at 7:30 p. m., Satur- day, September 28th. A census of the rabbits already owned by the breeders in attendance shows a total of fifteen hundred, with an estimated output of eighteen tons of rabbit meat and nine thousand pelts a year. Members believe that by proper attention the industry can be made to produce fifty tons of meat yearly and thirty thousand pelts. The primary object of the organi. zation is to educate the public as to the great food value of rabbit meat and to supply a market for all the rabbits that can be grown. In some of the western States the rabbit in- dustry runs into hundreds of thou- sands of dollars and the promoters of the new organization believe there is good money ip it if handled prop- erly. All individual breeders desiring to join the association before the State College meeting should get in touch with A. B. Cross, secretary, Mill Hall, Pa., or C. M. Boyer, Boalsburg. The Logan fire company went out beyond the Titan Metal company, at noon on Monday, where a small underbrush fire was in progress on the hill to the left, but as it did not look very dangerous they came into town and going onto north Water street tested out the pumper fo see that it is in good working condition. ——————— A —————— — Mr. and Mrs. John Garman, of Howard street, are receiving con- gratulations on the birth of a new daughter, Ruth Anne.
