vices in the State College Presbyterian
church Sunday.
Sunday evening snow fell to the
depth of an inch. The ground was well
covered until Monday morning.

In many boroughs and villages there
are ‘* Improvement Societies,” While
Centre Hall is one of the prettiest
towns in Central Pennsylvania, a
society devoted to the improvement
of the streets, lawns, ete., might be
of great service.
An experienced school teacher says
that pupils who read newspapers at
home, when compared with those
who do not, are better readers, better
grammarians and read more under-
standingly, and obtain a practical
knowledge of geography in almost
half the time it requires others,
After several months absence in
Bouth Carolina, Georgia and Florida,
Mr. and Mrs, D. J. Meyer returned
Baturday to their home in Centre
Hall. Mr. Meyer made the trip on ac-
count of his health, and on returning
was much improved. The climate in
Florida proved to be very beneficial.
In Mr. Meyer's mind the south is the
only country werth the going to, for
health or wealth,—outside of Centre
Hall.
The creamery, at this place, has been
newly painted on the entire interior,
and now presents a neat and sani-
tary appearance. The volume of busi-
ness is daily increasing and many new
patrons are being added to their now
extensive list. This is greatly due to
the good prices and fair treatment ac-
corded by the management. The
farmer and producer should be thank-
ful to the creamery for the high prices
prevailing for butter and produce, and
encourage them by liberal pationage.
After having been with Messrs.
Ruth & Knor, shoe manufacturers at
Reading, for a period of seventeen
years, during which time Centre Hall

Hazel, will move into the house thus
made vacant.

been burnt in the shingle roof.

LEWISBURG SAFE BLOWN OPEN.
Rallroad Station Strong Box Blown Open
«No Funds Secured,
This time it is Lewisburg that was
visited by the professionals, who suc-
ceeded in blowing open the safe in the
Pennsylvania Railroad station at that
point Monday night. The whole of
the upper portion of the safe was
blown away by the use of nitrogly-
cerine, but owing to the fact that the
safe was constructed with an inner
and separate steel apartment, which
was not demolished by the explosive,
the work of the safe-crackers proved
unprofitable,
By the side of the safe stood a sledge
hammer and other tools that had been
obtained from some local shop. When
the robbery at Centre Hall was com-
mitted these tools were carried away
and secreted. At Lewisburg it is pre-
sumed the professionals were disturb.
ed, which obliged them to flee without
booty or stolen tools.
SAME WHISKERED OLD MAN,
Friday of last week, the same
man, the be-whiskered old man and
his mate with a heavy, reddish mus-
tache, who were thought to have a
hand in the Centre Hall robbery,
boarded the train at this station. The
two held a continuous and animated
conversation while aboard the train,
and on alighting at Lewisburg, they
entered the railroad station and rear-
ranged their bundles of
handles, ete.
