The most important features of the |
day were the base ball games. In the
morning Woolrich and Mill Hall battled
for supremacy, but Mill Hall won out
by the close score 6-5. In the afternoon
game Howard beat Beech Creek by a
score to 0-3. Both contests proved to be
interesting and it is stated that the re
ceipts for both games were over $250
In the latter game, Orrie Kunes, of
Blaochard, a member of the Beech
Creek club, was hit in the eye by a ball |

painful injury. He had to

amusement was dancing in the pavilion

To the credit of the large crowd not an
intoxicated man was seen on the ground
during the day, thus the officers had
nothing to do but draw their pay.
Among (he progressive citizens of Snow
Shoe is T. B, Buddinger who has spent
much of his life in that vicinity as a
merchant and coal operator. He built
himself a cozy residence, and has all the |
comforts neccessary to make life happy.
About one year ago Mr, Buddinger saw
a chance to make money in the lum.
ber business in West Virginia, and
sold out his mercantile business in Snow
Shoe and is now devoting much of his
time to telling trees and sawing them
into marketable lumber. Recently he

Eliminating Big Curve,
Plans are being prepared by the Penn-
sylvania railroad engineers for the
elimination of the last big curve on the
main line between Pittsburg and Jt.
town. With the exception of the Horse:
shoe curve, the one _at Johnstown is the
only big curve on The entire Pittsburg
division between Pittsburg and Altoona,
Officials say the work at Johnstown will
involve a larger sum of money than any
of the recent main line improvements.
Friday received from Dr. William Frear,
the chemist of his division, reports in.
dicating that the milk served to four
regimental messes at Gettysburg was
“doctored” with boric acid to preserve
it. As soon as possible the evidence will
be placed before a magistrate and the
parties selling the milk will be prosecut.

A Remarkable Feat.
Wm. Bridgens, of Sunbury, has
memorized 2,890 passages of scripture
verse thus memorized. At a large ser

among the children and young people at
the service. As the chapter and verse
was called out by the person holding the
card he quoted verse written thereon
without one error, Mr. Bridgens is
known in Lock Haven having delivered
an address in the Y. M. C. A, rooms
