Col. Henry W. Bhoemaker, owner
of the Altoona Tribune, and author
of recognized ability, writes an inter-
esting article under the above caption
in a recent issue of the Tribune. Big-
game sporismen especially will be ip-
terested in the article, which follows :
Racently the writer was asked if he
had ever seen sn pld photograph tak-
en in the late sixties of Governor Cur-
tin and a pariy of friends at the camp
of Aaron Hall, “The Lion Hunter
of the Juniats, in the Allegheny
mountains pear the borders of Blair
and Centre counties. The picture is
said to have been taken bya Bellefonte
photographer, and represents the War
Governor standing beside the mighty
Nimrod, whileon the cabin roof are
hung the hides of nearly a dozon pan-
thers and bears. Other persons in ad-
miring sttitudee are grouped about
the Governor, and the * Lion Hunt-
er.” 1fany copies of this remarkable
photograph are in existence, there are
many who would appreciate seeing
them, ss they would be a pe rfect pic-
tare of the wilderness life in the Alle-
ghenies, which now has almost entire-
ly passed away.
When Coleman
champion rifle-shot, who is still liviog
first visited Aaron Hall's camp, abou!
the same time as the described photc-
graph was taken, he relates that Lh
hides of eleven huge panthers hung on
the walle, and that in frontof the door
stood two huge mounted black bears
in erect positions, with their mouths
propped open to show their flerce
white teeth, their geueral eftecf being
most terrifying. On that occasion.
Hall stated that he would admit Mr.
Sober to his camp If he proved him-
self no *‘tenderfoot.’ Mr. Bober
consented to give the proofs which
in this instance were to be an im-
promtu bear hunt on snow shoes. Af-
ter a twenty-three mile tramp over
the roughest kind of mountains, Bruin
was roundsd up, and Mr. Bober admit-
ted to full membership in the camp.
A contemporary of Hall's has relai-
ing the occassion of the War (Governor's
visit. A number of distinguished
lawyers and politicians were discuss-
ing big game huntine at the recently
constructed Bush House in Bellefonte,
and Governor Curtin eaid that within
a comparatively few miles of that
county seat was the camp of the great-
eat hunter in all Pénnsylvania, A
unamimous desire to see the great
hunter and his camp was expressed,
with the result that sleighs were ordei-
od snd the party was soon sweeping
up Bnow Shoe mountain in the direct-
jon of the headwaters of Rock Run.
The War Governor and his friends
were hospitably received by the great
Nimrod, who treated them to a dinner
of bear meal,
What a pity that those wonderful
days before Nature's resources became
exhausted are beyond the sight of the
present generation. We can only have
a plotare, and if not a photograph,
must see it in the * Mind's Eye, ”

The Problem of The Aged Clergymen.
Hipce #0 many churches think a
clergyman crosses the dead line at fifty
years, they canvot expect him to make
provision for old age. The average
age of ordination is about twenty eight
years, which gives him an earning os-
pacity of less than twenty five years.
An expenses increase and cost of liviog
grows higher, his salary remains the
same,
Congregations say they must have
a young man to hold the young people.
There is some truth to this claim,
Many clergymen become prematurely
old from losing the play spirit in their
absorption in spiritual inlerests,
Martin Luther, fond of music, took
every occasion to surrond himself with
young persons and entertain them
with song and ipstrumental sccom-
paniment. He was an expert at play.
ing the bowle, a favorite pastime in his
day. The common recreation of hu
manity will keep any clergyman in
touch with young life.
But even with every effort to keep
young, many clergymen find their Inst
years pathetic and impecunioue, The
churches who shelve them at
the age when other men reach the
height of their power are much like
ungrateful children who do not care
to personally look after their destitute
parents when they grow old. Vebe-
mently denounce such incarnation of
ingratitude,
Beware churches, that you do not
make a serious mistake In not caring
for the ministers when you force him
out into the cold world with no visible
means of support, :
