Mey- ers, and took them before Justice Keich. line who fixed their fine at ten dollars each and costs. Not having any funds they were sent up on the hill to board with Sheriff Taylor. The parents ap peared later and, when they learned the pature of the case and the amount in. volved and belug of limited means, they concluded best to let the boys serve the time in the hope that it would teach them a valuable lesson. This happened about two weeks ago and the boys are out again, but up to this time the practice of jumping trains has been checked.

Fish Warden Joseph Right. pour arrested two men who reside near the Nittany Furnace on the charge of having a large trout in their possession after the season had closed. The War. den proved that the men had a large trout, and that there was some evidence in regard to a loop being used, but that was not definite. On the other hand the defense was that the men had captured the trout in Logan's Branch during the fishing season and had kept it alive in a trough or tank stuce then and carried it in a bucket to an aquarium, when the Warden got track of it, At the hearing there was some lively discussion between the parties interested and the justice, who finally discharged the men on the ground that there was no evidence that they had captured the fish ont of season. Og the other hand the Warden maintained that under the game laws it was a violation to have the fish in their possession after the season closed. The Justice and the Warden held quite different views as to the matter, and, when the discussion became warm, compliments passed that were interesting. The Warden says be will follow the case further, and has furnished a report of the hearing to the State Pish Commission for farther fn. struction, “| VARIETY OF L OCAL NEWS Gathered From Centre and Ad- joining Counties SHORT AND TO THE Events That Have Transpired Recent- ly and Worthy of Mention of Interest for All Neighbors, Items Doings of Mrs. Alfred Durst, of Centre Hall, who has been ill for some time, is little or no better, W.
