School
Shoes
That Stand
The Strain.
EVE just opened a line of the noblest
shoes I r school boys and girs that we
have ever shown at any price. and these
are not the most expensive sorts, either,
The man who owps and runs the factory in
which these shoes were produced has been a
practical shoemgker all his lite. He usd to
make shoes by hand and did loads of eobbling
tor school children, It wasduring his early days
the! he studied the needs of children add saw the
need of better shoes than had been made for the
oungsters,
x The resalt of his thought and experience in
this direction is manifested in these shoes,
The shapes, the toes, the addition of strength
here and there where most of the strain comes,
and the little touches of beauty make these shoes
very much different and very much better than
the commonplace, clumsy shoes usually turned
out for children, .
$2 pays for a yair of the best in the lot. Same
are §1.75, $1 50, $1 25 and $1.00, all very low-priced
when the quality is considered.
Will you come in and look at them?

P. of H. Insurance Co.
The Centre County Mutual Fire In-
surance Company, P. of H , during
the mouth of August did a business of
$110,000, as reported by the secretary
of the company, James A. Keller. The
company’s business is increasing year-
ly and the tax rate has been unusual-
ly low.
Wednesday's Storm,
A heavy wind blew all day Wednes-
day, and in the morning from five to
seven o'clock it was especially strong.
No particular damage resulted in the
county from the storm, except that
many thousand bushels of apples were
switched from the trees, which will be
considerable loss to those having or-
chards.

Mifflin Democrats Nominate,
The Democrats of Mifflin county put
in nomination the following ticket.
Senator 8. B. Webber; assembly, Dr.
B. H. Rothrock; poor director, J. W.
Kerns; jury commissioner, R. Taylor
Alexander. The ticket is a good one,
as is known from the writers’ personal
knowledge, and when such staunch
Democrats as Dr. Charles Ritz put
their force into tire campaign, the par-
ty ought to win,
Killed at MoCsimont’s Quarries,
A fatal accident occurred last Friday
at Bellefonte, at the lime quarries of
MeCalmont & Co. Potter Iddings, a
brakeman on the cars hauling stone,
lost control of the cars and they rush-
ed over the tressle into a pit about
thirty feet below. He was instantly
killed. Iddings was aged fifty years,
and leaves a wife and three grown up
children
A Correction
In an article referring to the death
of A. B, McNitt, of Biglerville, which
took place in Philadelphia last week,
it was stated that gentleman had gone
to the city to have an operation per.
formed. That was an error. Mr. Me.
Nitt and his wife had gone to the sea
shore on a pleasure tour, and on their
way home he took sick with acute per-
itonitis, for which medical aid could
give no relief.
IMPROVEMENTS,
Several New Houses Nearing Completion,
Foundations Laid, ete.
Edward Foreman has his new house
under roof and is finishing the inside
as rapidly as possible. The building
was constructed in a very short space
of time, which shows that he and his
associate mechanics are rapid work-
men,
Alfred Durst has been delayed in the
erection of his dwelling on account of
the bricklayers taking sick. The
structure Is near enough completed,
however, to show tliat he will have
one of the prettiest homes in Centre
Hall when completed. The interior
arrangement is convenient and the ex-
terior presents an elegant appearance,
but not too good for the retiring days
of a couple who spent many years of
hard labor on a farm.
The foundation of the dwelling to be
erected by Al. Krape is finished and
building operations will begin before
long.
The Centre Hall fire insurance com-
pany has almost completed the repairs
on the house of J. Wesley Whiteman,
caused by the recent fire, This is the
second time the company was called
upon to do work on that house, the
first damage being caused by light-
ning.

Just the right hats for picnic; low

The Ring Wanting.
Some person or persons are doing a
land office business in the counterfeit
money line in and about Clearfield
Just now. During the past week the
town has been flooded with countefeit
dollars spd twenty-five cent pieces.
The work is well done but the “ring”

Fertilizers,
A larger amount of phosphate was
used this fall by the farmers in this
section than for a number of years.
Carolina rock, analyzing fourteen per
cent. phosphoric acid is the grade com-
monly used. The favorable result« ob-
tained in a number of cases from such
goods used last year induced a more
general adoption of that formula this

$100,000 Fire at Lewistown,
The North American tannery own-
ed by Calvin Green, in Lewistown,
was totally destroyed by fire on after
noon of Monday. The fire was caused
by a hot journal that elevates the tan
overhead. The fire companies were
called out, but before they could reach
the scene the whole building was on
fire. $2000 worth of finished stock
was saved. The plant was valued at
$200,000, which includes thousands of
dollars worth of bark stored near by.
The damage done was $100,000, fully
insured. The plant will be rebuilt,

Centre Hall has Plenty Water,
Frequent mention is made in the
exchanges that reach the Reporter ta-
ble of the scarcity of water and many
towns and villages are suffering from
a scarcity of that necessary article,
There is probably no section in the in-
terior of the state that has had less
rain fall within the last two years than
this particular locality, yet the town's
supply of water has not shown any ap.
preciable falling off, and no restric
tions have been placed on the use of
water,

A $520.04 BOCHOOL APPROPRIATION,
The Borough Would Have Considerable
More, But for Stone's Veto.
H. {. Btrohmeier, treasurer of t je
Centre Hall school board, received
$520.64 from the State Department Sat-
urday of last week, that being the pro-
portionate amount due the borough
from the general appropriation of
$5,500,000 made by the legislature dur-
ing the session of 1809, and from which
Gov. Btone deducted $500,000 by veto.
The state appropriation last year for
the borough amounted to $541.84, It
will be seen that the appropriation is
$21.00 short, but that does not repre-
sent the exact amount the borough is
losing by Gov. Stone's act of econo-
my (?). The act under which the ap-
propriation is distributed directs that
one-third be distributed upon the nume
ber of children between six and six-
teen years of age ; one-third on the
number of resident taxables and one-
third on the number or regularly paid
teachers. This is the first time the
borough profited by the addition of
the fourth school, so far as pertains to
increase of appropriation, From the
beneflt derived from increase of the
number of schools, the increase of
