AT MEETING SATURDAY.
Gifford Pinchot, the forester

as Governor, had it all over the

$22,000,000 State
first two years of his term as Gov-
ernor, but forgot to state that it
was done through increased taxation
and reduced appropriations. How-
ever, he promised to pull the farm-
ers out of the mud by building
township roads, in the event he is
elected, will reduce the minimum
license on cars from ten to five dol-
lars, an operator’s license from two
dollars to one, and will make trout
fishing a more attractive and 1lu-
ers who heard him were undoubted-
ly impressed and many of them
will probably vote for him.
He didn’t waste much time on
the prohibition question, merely
stating that everybody knew where
he stood. He did state, however,
that he admired “Tom” Phillips for
his candidness in making his cam-
paign but derided Brown's referen-
dum sugggestion as all bosh.
Before coming to Bellefonte Pin-
chot visited State College where he
was greeted by a large crowd, in-
cluding almost the entire student
body. In his talk there he promis-
ed to take care of the College in
the way of appropriations if he is
elected. He was met at the Col-
lege by Bond White, his county
manager, who accompanied him to
Bellefonte. Coming by Axe Mann
Mr. White pointed out to Pinchot
his home and also the home of his
mother, who was sitting on the
porch. Telling the chauffer to stop
the car Pinchot jumped out, ran
up the steps and shook hands with
Mrs. White then returned to his
car and continued his trip to Belle-
fonte. He was scheduled to reach
here at ten o'clock but it was 10:30
when the big brown car landed him
in front of the court house. Natur-
ally, the playing of Wetzler’'s boy’s
band had attracted a large crowd
all of whom stayed to hear Pinchot’s
talk. ;
BIG BLACK BEAR GAVE
FISHERMAN A SCARE.
Last Thursday Fred Yarnell, of
Chester, who spent the week with
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. George
H. Yarnell, at Hecla, went in to
Hecla Gap to fish for trout on
Little Fishing creek. fie had some
fifteen or twenty trout in his bas-
ket and going down stream came to
an old log lying across the creek.
Just below the log was a
pool that looked as if it might be
a good place for trout.
Walking out on the log he made
one or two casts when he heard a
snarl and a grunt and looking
around was very much startled to
see a big black bear, with his fore-
paws on the other end of the log,
mouth open and big teeth gleaming
in the sunlight. The only weapon
Mr. Yarnell had with him was a
small - caliber automatic revolver
which he carried for use on snakes
but -he realized that it would be
a poor protection against a bear.
He quickly decided, however, to
take a shot in the hope of scaring
the animal but when he pulled the
gun out of his pocket the bear
withdrew from the log and quickly
disappeared in the dense under-
brush. Mr. Yarnell is of the opin-
ion that the bear had sniffed his
trout and was after a mess of fish.

jury considered 35 hills of indict-
ment, 28 of which were found true

| tional Guard, presided, and introduc-
ced Lieutenant Governor Arthur H.
| James, who made the presentation

I tribute to him because as a member
of the 45th regiment he took part
.in the siege of Vicksburg during the
‘Civil war. At that time the place
was only a small village while now
it is a city of 20,000 population.

ducting all legal expenses, an ap-
portionment was made between the
legatees named in the will, share
and share alike.
But before a distribution was
made the estranged wife, Nellie
Malllory, filed objections to the
auditor’s report and testimony in
the casg was taken before Judge
Fleming. In due course of time he
handed down an opinion and decree
in which he sustained the objec-
tions filed by Mrs. Mallory and
ordered a new distribution in which
the wife was allowed one-half of
her husband's estate and the other
half to be divided equally among
the legatees named in the will.
{ The case was carried to the
Supreme court on behalf of the
legatees and the decision of that
tribunal, on Monday, affirms Judge
Fleming’s decree and cites that the
costs are to be paid out of the es. |
: tate. All told the estate now
amounts to over fifty thousand dol- |
lars, clear of all expenses.

of Bellefonte’s expert fishermen,
{who gives away more fish than he
| takes home, went up Spring Creek
to try his luck. It was not a good
| day for trout and his catch was
{limited to one 12.inch beauty. It
‘was not enough to give away so he
' decided to take it home amd give
it to his wife for the evening meal.
! When he reached home he went
(into the kitchen and told the lady
‘of the house that he had the mak-
lings of their evening meal. Rais-
'ing the lid on his basket he reached
in, then stood aghast. No trout was
