A bill which passed the legisla
ture and was approved by Governor
Tener last year provided for an as
sistant to county superintendents at
a salary of 51200 a year. Notwith
standing the fact that ,the bill
passed both branches of the legisla
ture and signed by the Governor, no
appropriation of money was made
so that the terms of the law could
not be made. This year, however,
the appropriation is likely to be
made and Superintendent Koehler
will then be privileged to select an
assistant.

to this time, are also finding that
they have numerous friends.

Chautauqua is over, so far as
Bellefonte is concerned. We think
those skeptics who thought it would
not bo a success have had ample
cause to form other conclusions;
those uninformed who thought Chau
tauqua meant a street carnival or a
frivolous amusement enterprise have
been brought to know of tho seri
ousness of the undertaking. It Is
needless to say that we recall noth
ing that has started people in Belle
fonte to talking and thinking of
things out of the ordinary groove of
their lives like the gatherings during
tho past week have done. They
have brought wholesome instruction,
as well as entertainment and the one
regret is that tho opportunity could
not be extended to more of our peo
ple. Chautauqua week promises to
be one of the fixed and enjoyable in
stitutions of Bellefonte. Demo

Matadors may be succeeded by
automobiles as bull fighters. This
was proved when Peter Green, a
farmer, sixty years old, of Huntley,
111., was being gored by a bull while
in one of his pastures. His screams
attracted an automobilo party of
threo men who wore In the road.
The men witnessed the attack for
a moment, then the driver of the big
touring car made a dash Into the
pasture and after the bull. The horn
was tooted and tooted, and the bull
was finally driven away from the
helpless farmer. Three of Green's
ribs were broken, but he will re
cover. George, the 8-year-old son of
Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Lukaszek, of

DEATH DEALING MACHINE
SEIZED BY GOVERNMENT
Remarkablo Invention of a Blackmailor
Also Useful In Saving Lives.
In the presence of electrical experts,
federal oineers and detectives In Salt
Lako City haB Just been demonstrated
what is said to be perhaps the most re
markable death dealing machine In
vented in recent years. .
The invention Is the work of W. L.
Cummlnga, twenty-three years old,
who confessed to federal and municipal
officers when he was arrested that ho
had threatened to use It to destroy
Miss Dorothy Bamberger, a wealthy
society girl of Salt Lako City, unless
she gave him $1,000,000. After the
demonstration government officials took
possession of tho Invention.
What is held to be of more Impor
tance, tho device, It Is said, can bo
turned to tho saving of life by pre
venting train or ship collisions.
Electricians took the machlno Into a
steel and concrete vault In an offloe
building. Another part of tho contriv
ance, on which were mounted n bell and
an incandescent globe, was placed hi a
closed room across a hall. Then the
electric current of tho machine was
turned on. On the unattached box In
the other room tiro bell rang and tho
lamp glowed brightly.
In his acknowledged letter to Miss
Bamberger Cummlngs sent a diagram
of his invention, saving he would place
a suit case of nitroglycerin In her roon
and explodo it from a distance. Tho
demonstration, say the electrical ex
perts, proves that ho could have done
this.
In sneaking of his invention as ho sat
in his cell Cummlngs said the attach
ment could bo installed in locomotive
cabs, where it would give u positive
signal if a train ran past a closed block
signal. In war, he said, mines could
bo exploded without wire attachment.
The prisoner told the police ho had
been induced to try to blackmail Miss
Bamberger by two other men, who, ho
believed, were members of a New York
gang of blackmailers.
Endless Prayer" In Mail.
Postal inspectors at Philadelphia re

postal laws.

SCRANTON WANTS GAME.
327 Spring Street,
Scranton, Pa.,
July 20, 1913.
Sporting Editor,
"The Citizen,"
Honesdale, Pa.
Dear Sir:
Is there a fast first or second
class in Honesdale, or its vicinity, de
sirous of entertaining a base ball
club comprised of the cream of the
Scranton City League, on Saturday,
August 9? I am manager of the
Providence team, of that league, and
that date being an open one, would
like to secure an out-of-town en
gagement on that day.
The Providence club is the only
nine that has defeated Embury,
champions, this season, turning the
trick twice. It is completely re-organized
and their last game was a 4
to 0 victory over Elm Park, who lost
out to Hawley on Memorial Day in a
twelve-Inning contest. Chambers,
our pitcher, let Elm Park down
without a hit.
We will play for expenses and
supper. Trusting that you can put
me in communication with a club
eager to play us, I am,
With sincere thanks,
E. G. POWELL.
