    WORLD-FAMED BANJOIST
COMING TO ACADEMY.
Alfred A. Farland, said to be one
of the world’s greatest banjoists, who
has made twelve continental tours,
will give one of his marvelous enter-
tainments in the Academy auditori-
um, at nine o'clock Tuesday morn-
ing, April 14th. Any friends of the
Academy who may desire to enjoy
this musical treat will be welcome.
The admission price will be fifty
cents.
This great opportunity to hear a
banjoist of such note is due to the
fact that over forty years ago Frank
Morrow, a skilled banjoist and teach-
er, living in Tyrone, was secured by
Mr. James R. Hughes to entertain
at one of the Academy shows. He
thrilled his audience. In recent
years he has been the booking agent
for Mr, Farland. His old associ-
ation with Mr. Hughes led him to
arrange for the appearance of Mr.
Farland in Bellefonte.
Mr. Farland's press notices from
all over the country would fill a
large volume, and they are all of a
very flattering character.
——On Sunday morning, shortly
after the women in the A. H. Sloop
home turncd on the gas in their
range there was a loud explosion in
the oven which badly wrecked the
stove. The only explanation
that could be assigned for the ex-
plosion was a leaky connection in
the oven. A new range was install-
ed on Monday.
——A small home at Smullton, in
which Charles Snyder kept bachelor
headquarters, was burned to the
ground, last Thursday, and on Fri-
day a two-room bungalow, at Valley
View, occupied by Wesley Rider, was
burned with practically all it's fur-
nishings.
Kenneth Wall has resigned
as manager of the Richelieu and
State theatres and left Bellefonte,
on Wednesday, to engage in other
work elsewhere. Elmer E. Straub,
who has been ticket taker, will suc-
ceed Mr, Wall as manager.
