CLUB TO TIKE PHUT
in GOOD nous OUT
Millersburg Motor Organization
Plans to Join in State-wide
Work May 26
Sfecial to The Telegraph
Millershurg, Pa.. May 13. —At a
meeting of the board of governors ana
the good roads committee of the Mil
lersburg Motor Club plans were made
for the active participation of the club
in the state-wide good roads day on
Wednesday, May 26.
It is not necessary to hold member
ship in the .Motor Club to join in the
good roads movement on the 26th in
stant. Those who will go to work on
the roads on the above day are asked
to register their names now at AVatts
jewelry store or at Hoy's general
store. Car owners who will put their
autos into service are also asked to
register. By this method the club will
be better able to place the workers in
gangs and will know just how many
cars will be available on good roads
day.
Supervisors of the townships in
which work will be done will be pres
ent to give directions. Places where
needed and substantial repairs are nec
essary have already been taken into
account, so that the greatest efficiency
and dispatch may be the order of the
clay.
TIIC Bcrrysburg Road
The work and repairs will be con
fined to the township road from Mil
lersburg to Berrvsburg and from the
latter place to Elizabethvllle, a dis
tance of about fourteen miles. The
road from here to Halifax is in good
condition and the highway from Mil
lersburg to Elizabethville is now being
made better than ever by the State
Highway Department, so that all local
effort will be confined to the Berrys
burg township roads.
While scoops, plows, scrapers, teams,
etc., will be provided by the motor
club, yet individuals volunteering their
labor on good roads day are asked to
bring shovels, rakes and picks, if
possible.

Everybody Is troubled at this season
with loss of'vitality, failure of appetite,

Isn't $5.00
Worth Saving?
You can save this much money by buying
your winter's supply of coal this month.
20,000 lbs. Hard Nut costs now $63.50
20,000 lbs. Hard Nut costs Sept. 1 68.50
i
Amount saved $5.00
And the remarkable thing about buying
coal now for next winter is that you get'bet
j ter quality coal.
Usually when you buy a thing cheaper you look
for inferior quality.
Not so with coal—the prices are reduced in sum
mer time to find a market for a product in an other
wise dull season.
I Better arrange to save money and get better
quality to-day. ,

Adam Snyder on Trial at
Huntingdon For Murder
of Mrs. Plummer Port
Special to The Telegraph
Huntingdon, Pa.. May 13. Adam
Snyder, aged 20, the Johnstown boy,
. was yesterday morning placed on
. trial for his life, indicted for the mur
der on January 6 of Mrs. Plumni(«r
. Port, wife of a prominent Huntingdon
, county farmer. Before the State's at-
I torney commenced his address to the
i jury President Judge Joseph M. Woods,
knowing the nature of the evidence to
be outlined by the prosecution, ordered
1 the exclusion from the courtroom of
all boys under 18 years of age and pre
sented the opportunity for women to
leave. Many of the latter filed from
the hall of justice. One, however, re
mained. the accused slayer's mother.
Plummer Port, the husband of the
murdered woman, was the first wit
ness. Railroad Officer Frank Ernest
and Private Detective Port were also
Important witnesses for the State.
A full, written confession of the
crime, in which Snyder admits assault
as the motive, will be introduced as
the Commonwealth's telling blow
against the defense. Upon whether or
not the court will admit the confession
as legitimate evidence apparently
hinges the life of Adam Snyder. If
the confession is admitted, there will
be but one last plea to which the
accused boy's counsel can resort—that
is insanity.
