Page Fivi. August 25, 1938, THE CENTRE DEMOCRAT, BELLEFONTE, PA. —— Grand Jury To Robert F. Hunter, - well known | Echoes From the Post FIFTY YEARS AGO The plenie and exhibition of the | patrons of husbandry near Centre | Hall promises to rival the Williams | Grove affair in a few years, A meeting will be held Knights of Labor Hall on Friday night of this week to consider the | advisabllity of organizing a Castle | of the Knights of the Golden Eag- le. ow The Eureka baseball club was or- | ganized last week. Saturday they played their first game of the sea- son with the Plemings. They did | their work nobly. The score stood! 14 to 15 in favor of the Eurekas. | Mr. David Delp, of near | in the New Bethlehem, Clarion county, and ex- Sheriff John Spangler, of Centre Hall, passed through town on ¥Fri- | day on their homeward road from | | Fifty rigs of different kinds pass- ed up Bishop street on Sunday morning bound for Clintondale camp meeting, and no less than 300 persons occupied the 50 rigs. A nice day and a general good time was re- ported. Mr, Gottlieb Haag, proprietor of the Cummings House, Bishop street, has finished & handsome stable op- posite the site of the old one de- stroyed by fire recently. The new structure is a decided improvement to Conrad alley. The work of grading east Curtin street began on Tuesday morning. Commissioner Shaughnessy would have had the work done before this if the street committee of council, had ordered it done. This is the first work done on that street east of Allegheny since it was opened In Butler county with a fine lot of | 1884 cattle. | Harry Johnston, of Mt. Eagle, has | returned home after having spent several years in the west, He gained much useful information from his travels, and comes home thoroughly posted on the ways of the western country., James A. Beaver, only child of Mr. and Mrs. Lunger Wian, who re- | side a short distance east of town, died Sunday evening at about 8 o'- | clock. The cause of his death was pneumonia. He was aged nine months and nine days. | The Pennsylvania Rallroad Com- pany is to build new shops at Al- toona that will give employment to one thousand additional men, and will turn out from 150 to 200 new engines per year besides cars. | This means an addition to the pop- ulation of Altoona of at least six thousand. | Mert Cunningham with a gang of men Is busily engaged in putting down a concrete pavement in front of the new public school building on East Bishop street. When finished it will be a great improvement to that end of town. The pavement is one of the most substantial and durable types it is possible to get. “Bobby” Haas had a very “beery mashup” Monday while on the road to town with a load of beer. The horse became unmanageable and thought he would take a skip—and skip he did, upsetting the wagon and dumping Bob, beer and all out] on the road. Fortunately nobody was hurt but there was some damage to the wagon. George B. Brandon, the jovial landlord of the Brockerhoff House, returned from a trip east last week. Mr. Brandon took a trip over the Sound on one of the excellent steamers that ply between New York and the eastern cities. He was for- merly an officer on one of these boats and his old friends were de- lighted to see him and made his visit extremely pleasant. i la general good time was had by all i W. PF. Reber, Esq., has been offer- ed and has accepted the position of stenographer to the Democratic National Committee in New York. This is a compliment well deserved. As a stenographer Mr. Reber has few equals and no superiors. He leaves next week to enter upon his duties. Mr. Robert Cole, architect, is now giving his entire attention to architecture, and is crowded with orders. At present he is engaged in making the designs for the new I. 0. O. F. bullding in Tyrone. Mr. Cole is also a practical mechanic and contractor, which enables him all the more to thoroughly under- stand the details of drafting. We are glad to learn that Haupt Leathers, of Mt. Eagle, is slowly re- cuperating after having undergone a severe attack of typhoid fever, He was brought home from Snow Shoe several weeks ago and his condition was so bad that it was thought he would not recover. Careful treat- ment at the hands of Dr. Hensyl bave put him on a fair way to health again. Mr. Richard Lutz, who is em- ployed as a carpenter at Collins Brothers round-house on the Buf- falo Run railroad, while in the act of gathering up his tools prepara- tory to quitting work on Friday evening of last week, was 50 un- forunate as to let one of the chisels slip from his hand. In falling it struck the top of his foot, cutting only a small hole but severing an artery near the great toe. Medical ald was summoned and “Dick” was put on the retired list for several days. The Kennedy Sunday school, Mt Eagle, held a picnic in the grove below Stiner’s mill last Saturday . . The Lutheran picnic held in Rockey’'s woods near Seller's school house on the Buffalo Run railroad Wednesday was well attended and .T.

Mr. Royer, as far as College . we can learn, has failed to show the original letter to any person. There is a mystery about the disappear- ance of this woman that Royer could clear up perhaps better than any other person. The conflicting stories told by him are enough to! excite the greatest suspicion of foul play. Ed. Note: We hope they soon solve this mystery—we've been wor- rying about it ever since we got to the place In the old files where Mrs Royer was reported missing , Mr. Robert Hunter, of Benner township, and Messrs.

Mr. John Bartruff has had a severe seige of the fever TWENTY YEARS AGO Mrs. Virginia Kephart, of Monu- | ment, had the distinction of having four sons and another boy whom she had raised since infancy, in the United States Army. Mrs. Thomas Symmonds and three children, Thelma, Jack and Gladys, of Newport News, Va. were spend- ing a six weeks’ vacation with Mrs. Symmonds’ parents, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Bryan, of Milesburg. The Government, which had con- tracted for the entire output of the # “Bull Durham” plant to supply to- bacco for the Army and Navy, had entered into the same kind of agree- ment for Wrigley's Spearmint chew. ing gum. The post office at O'Brien's store, Axe Mann, was discontinued, and persons served by that office were to receive their mail through Balle. forte rural carrier, Boyd Spicher, of Pleasant Gap. The change was to become effective September 1. | John “Moose” Ammerman, who was employed in a munitions plant at Milton, and who spent the week- end with relatives and friends in! Bellefonte, reported that he was drawing $48 for five nights’ work at the plant. The Peter Mangino shoe repair shop on West High street, was en- | _ tered twice within a week's time | ‘and the thieves got a total of $18 in cash. It was believed they had keys to the lock on the front door, | since there was no evidence of any | of the windows having been dis- Samuel Barnhart, of Curtin, in-| Benjamin Bradiey began the task of lowering the floor of the Lyric theatre to the level of Allegheny street, The present floor was being [torn up, and it was expected that it would require about six weeks of steady work to rebuild the floor Two Philadelphia business men, and their families, who had visited Centre county the previous summer, returned to the Penn's Cave area where they pitched tents and made themselves comfortable for an out- ing in that scenic section. Harry Gamer, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Garner, of State College, { the latter deceased, was wounded in ia battle in France, according to a post card received by Mr. and Mrs. William Bottorf, of Bellefonte. Al- though he was receiving treatment at a hospital it was reported that his wounds were not of a serious nature, Marion Cupp, a painter residing on West Beaver street, was seriously injured while finishing his day's work at the Chemical Lime Com- pany plant, near town. He was en- gaged in painting stacks and was in the act of tearing down a scaf- fold when a plank dropped, strik- ing him on the head and hurling him from the scaffold to the ground, a distance of about ten feet. He suffered head and back injuries, Owing to the fact that about fifty carloads of iron ore were being ship- ped to the McCoy-Linn Iron Com- pany plant near town, they were in {need of young men to unload the, cars and were paying 30 cents a jured in a battle in Prance, wrote ton for the work.

Mr. Uzzell decided to come to Bellefonte, and since rain threatened he wore a hunting coat which he had not used since the previous fall. Finding some tobacco in one pocket he filled his pipe and lit it. After a few puffs the pipe including the stem were blown into tiny pleces. It developed that in ad- dition to tobacco, there were several cartridges in the pocket and in fill- ing his pipe one of the cartridges was included. The only injury re- ceived by the luckless smoker was a slight contusion in the middle of the forehead. sme Me co— Centre County Hospital Notes Monday of Last Week Discharged Waldo E.
