Trouble Setting Poles.
I'he Bell Telephqpe people have been
working in toe town during the last
week constructing their line, putting
in larger and heavier poles and plac-
ing their pole line off the street where
possible. This week the men aroused
the ire of several property owners out
towards the station in placing poles.

where necessary, and at points where
the councils street committee deem
Coming in from the station the
company wanted to run their line in
at the side street leading past the home
of Mrs. C. M. Hemphill. Mrs. Hemp-
hill objected to having a pole erected
at the corner of the two streets. The
majority of the street committee locat-
ed the pole at this place and to avoid
day light trouble the construction
gang put up the pole between one and
two o'clock Tuesday morning. They
worked so quietly that they did not
arouse the property owners until the
stringing of wires awakened the peo-
ple and then the work had been done,
Back the street a pole was erected
which Tom. Wilson says will compel
him to move his coal house or carry
his coal. Some members of the coun-
cil advised the cutting down of the of-
fending timbers, but the poles still
point skyward.

Foster's Weather Outlook
My last bulletin gave forecasts of the
storm wave to cross the continent from
22 to 26, and the next will reach the
Pacific coast about 22, cross the west of
Rockies country by close of 23, great
central valleys 29 to 31 and eastern
states Dec. 1.
Warm wave will cross the west of
Rockies country about 27, great centra
valleys 29 and eastern states 31. Cool
wave will cross the west of Rockies
country about 30, great central valleys
December 2 and eastern states Decem-
ber 4.
Temperature of the week ending De-
cember 4 will average below normal in
the great central valleys and above in
the Atlantic states and on the Pacific
slope. Rainfall will be above normal
in the great central valleys and below
on the Pacific slope and in the Atlan-
tic states,
About the date of this bulletin a
wave of moderate temperature, averag-
ing much higher than the first week
of the month, will be moving slowly
eastward across the great central val-
legs, and following it will come anoth-
er severe cold wave-—much like the
first one of this month—and which
will go far southward.

Clergyman's Change of Creed,

HUNTERS WITH A SCORE,
One Party Bags Six Deer and 8 Hear on a
Ten Days' Hunt,
The Fleetfoot Hunting Cfub which
came out of the mountains from a ten
days’ trip after game, startled the val-
ley with the splendid success they met
with. They bagged six deer, a bear,
two foxes, two wild turkeys and a
number of pheasants, The party was
composed of Jacob Sharer and Wm,
Homan, Centre Hall; John and Geo.
Homan, Harry Miller and Wes. Deck-
er, of the Branch; Jacob Reish and
Wm. Leech, Penna. Furnace; Bruce
Miller and Wm. Hess, Shingletown;
Bruce Lonebarger, Linden Hall; Ira
Hess, Altoona; Abe. McCollum, State
College, and Sam Kunepp, of Boals-
burg.
The party were out to the Sand
Knobs, in the Bear Meadows district.
The deer they got were two does,
a spike buck, a four, five and six
pronged bucks. Our friend Jacob
Sharer brought down one of the does.
Hunting parties after deer have con-
sidered themselves lucky did they
bring home one or two deer, but when
they come back with a half dozen and
a bear, it is a nine days’ wonder.
