fonte.
Anna, the little five-year-old daugh-
ter of Michael Lamb, fell into a cis-
tern on the property of Emanuel Noll,
on North Allegheny street, Bellefonte,
and was drowned before help arrived,
The little girl was playing in neigh-
bor Noll's yard. The two properties
adjoin. The cistern was fifteen feet
deep and about half full of water. A
bucket of water was drawn from the
cistern and the trap door left open for
a few minutes. The little girl in some
way fell through the trap door into
the water.
The accident was discovered at once
and assistance summoned. Great dif-
ficulty was experienced in getting into
the cistern to get the little girl out.
Finally by means of a long rake the
little one was drawn to the surface, but
life seemed extinct. Physicians work-
ed over an hour endeavoring to resus-
citate the girl but it was hopeless. Mi-

K. P. Hall for congress, by acclama- |
tion. |

lot. The conferees from Centre were |

Hall's name was not presented until |
the last one, when all the other candi-

unanimously. He returned to Ridg-
way next morning and was met at the
I train by an enthusiastic crowd of Dem- |
ocrats and anti-Arnold Republicans, |
| who heartily congratulated him and |
pledged him their sincere support.
Mr. Hall hails from Centre county
and from the Milesburg family of
{ Halls, which is the best and purest of |
