HOWARD MAN ON SUNDAY.
Coming in contact with a live
electric wire, near the old Long
mill at Howard, some time on Sun-
day afternoon or evening, Roland
Butler, 68 years old, was shocked to
death, his left hand and arm and the
upper portion of his body being bad-
ly burned. Just what time the ac-
cident happened or how are not ex-
actly known.
LeRoy Scull and Paul Miller, of
| the West Penn Power company, which
recently purchased the plant and
franchise of the Centre Electric com-
pany, at Howard, were summoned
to that place between eight and
nine o'clock Sunday evening because
{of trouble in the service. Since
taking over the Centre Electric
company the West Penn has had
men engaged in revamping the lines
and service in general in Howard,
but the work has not yet been com-
pleted. Up in the neighborhood of
Long's mill are still a number of
the old wires, some of them carry-
ing the usual load of current.
From all accounts it was in that
section where Scull and Miller found
the trouble on Sunday night. They
had made repairs and started away
when Miller suggested they go back
into the woods to see if they could
locate the source of the trouble.
With their flashlights they went in-
to the woods just below the mill and
hadn't proceeded far when they
found a man lying across a live
wire. They succeeded in removing
him and at once notified Charles
Kellerman, head of the operating de-
partment, who made a quick trip to
Howard.
An investigation showed the dead
man to be Roland Butler. He was
found lying by the side of an old
| path which runs through the woods.
Just how he came in contact with
‘the wire is not known. A difference
of opinion also exists as to the
height of the wire from the ground.
Some aver that the only way Butler
could have come in contact with
it was to reach up and take hold of |

| dozen Bellefonte people motored to
St. Mary's, last Saturday afternoon,
to attend the wedding of Thomas
Harter Mensch, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles F. Mensch, of Bellefonte,
and Miss Catherine Naomi Hartman,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford E.
Hartman, of St. Mary's. The cere.
mony took place at four o'clock in
St. Agnes Episcopal church, and was
performed by the rector, Rev. Aaron
C Bennett. Preceding the cere-
mony Miss Long, of Ridgway, sang
“Oh Promise Me," and the wedding
party moved to the altar to the
strains of the wedding march from
Lohengrin.
The bride, who was given in mar-
riage by her father, wore an infor-
mal gown of white taffeta and net
with a tulle veil and lace cap. She
carried a bouquet of white rosebuds
and lilies of the valley and her only
jewel adornment was a cameo pen-
dant, a family heirloom. She was
attended by her sister, Miss Wini-
fred Hartman, as maid of honor,
who wore a dress of pink embroi-
dered organdie, a pink picture hat
with slippers to match, and carried
a bouquet of sweetheart roses.
The bridesmaids were Misses Mary
Jane and Helen Hartman, also sis-
ters of the bride; Miss Agnes Ben-
son, of St. Mary's, and Miss Imo-
gene Flanigan, of Brookville. Two
of the bridesmaids wore embroider-
ed orchid gowns and two embroider-
ed green organdie. All wore large
picture hats with matched slippers
and carried boquets of pink roses.
The flower girl was Beverly Conrad,
of St. Mary's.
The bridegroom was attended by |
his brother, Charles A. Mensch, of
Bellefonte, as best man, while the
ushers were Dr. Joseph A. Parrish
and George P. Lyon, of Bellefonte;
W. K. Allen, of Wexford, Pa, and J.
C. Whiteman and William Hartman,
of St Mary's.
| Immediately following the cere-
mony a reception and dance was
held at the St. Mary's Country club
which was attended by three hun-
dred or more guests. The young
couple are spending their honeymoon

"BOROUGH COUNCILMEN
MEET AT STATE COLLEGE.
from the borough council of State
College representatives from the
borough councils of Bellefonte, How-
‘ard, Philipsburg and Snow Shoe at-
tended a dinner meeting at the State
College hotel on Wednesday evening
of last week. Bellefonte was repre-
sented by burgess Hardman P. Har-
ris and councilmen John S. Walker,
W. J. Emerick, Thomas Beaver and
E. E. Ardery. The meeting was
called ostensibly to discuss public
utilities and their relation to bor-
‘oughs but in reality it was to fur-
ther Governor Pinchot's fight against
utility companies in general
This fact developed when the
speaker of the evening was intro-
duced. He proved to be John M.
Walker, of Harrisburg, the Gover-
nor's special counsel in his fight
against the utility companies. And
the entire tenor of Mr. Walker's
talk was a plea for support of the
Pinchot program. He cited statistics
which he claimed were convincing
proof that the consumer is paying
anywhere from 25 to 40 per cent.
more for his electric service and wa-
ter than he should pay. Hegave a
comparison of prices betwen munci-
pally conducted utility companies
and private ownership, greatly to
the detriment of the latter. But
he did say that of all the utility
(companies in the State the West
| Penn Power company, which serves
| the people of Centre county with
electrical power and light, has the
‘most reasonable rates of any in
Pennsylvania.
Burgess E. E. Lederer presided at
the meeting and Mrs. M. Campbell,
secretary of the borough council of
State College, was chosen tempo-
rary secretary. It was voted to form
'a county organization and a commit-
tee to be composed of one represen-
tative from each of the five boroughs
| represented at the meeting will
| formulate plans for the organization.
' Burgess Hardman P. Harris was ap-
| pointed, Monday evening, at the
meeting of borough council as Belle-
'fonte's member of the committee.
