Judge Reed would not grant a new trial and Cefall was sentenced to he hanged by the neck until dead. Governor Pennypacker will set the date for the execution. The crime for which Cefall will bo hanged was committed at Sykesville September 24, 1904, when he murdered a fellow countryman. This will be the third Italian exe cuted In this country within a year. Gave Officer a Chase. A Butler county constable came to Hrookvllle Saturday looking for an Italian who was wanted In Butler coun ty for selling liquor without license. The Italian was located Sunday and Deputy Sheriff Brltton was given the warrant, as the Italian knew the con stable. When the deputy called at the house the Iko offered leg ball by skip ping out of the back door and Deputy Brltton started after him. It was a long and somowhat exciting chase. They crossed the creek twice on the Ice, but when near the shoro the second time the Ice gave way with the Italian and ho dropped Into the cold water above the knees and was. then easily caught by Deputy Brltton. The Italian had a razor In his hand when Mr. Brlt ton came up to bim and he said, "Mo shoot." County Institute.

Editor The Star, Dear Sir: I noticed In last week's STAR that the publio sehool exerolsei were partly conducted by Rev. J. A. Parsons and comment made that his ad dress was timely, &o. Well; It might have been good, but I think tbo Rev. was entirely out of placo. As we are taxed for tbo support of our publio schools Irrespective of our religious Ideas, they should be nnn-sectarlan, as they aresupposod to be. Forany proach er, rabbi or priest to conduct exercises there, or try to disseminate their relig ious ideas there, I think Is an Injustice to and an Imposition on those taxpayers that differ from them on religious mat tors. What Is considered the right thing by tho Jew will not he approved by the Christian in all cases. What ploasos the infidel will displease tho be liever. The Protestant does not want Catholic doctrines rubbed In on blm or his children. Nor do we want our publio schools used by any sect, Ism or clsm to propogate their respective ideas, but to be non-secturlan In the fullest sense. Any denomination wanting re ligious Instructions given do as wo do, establish private schools where they can make " timely " addresses and emphasize their "necessities" to their hearts content without Imposing on any one. A Catholic Taxpayer. " Sunset Mines " To-Night. The Record Stuck Company, that has played four nights In the Reynolds opora bouse to large audiences, will close their engagement to-night with " Sunset Mines, " a thrilling play. Tbe company was only booked for three nights here and expected to play the first three nights of this week In Barnesboro, but on account of bursting of steam pipes In the Barnesboro opera house tbo company could not show tbore this week, leaving three open nights. Tbe company was well patron ized here, on acoount of being a first class company, and tbe manager decid ed to play here Monday and Wednesday nights of this week, and would have played last night had not the opora house beon previously engaged for moving picture Bhow. Miss Cora Lawton Mitchell Is the leading lady in tho company. " A Woman's Revenge" was played tho first night and was repoatod on Monday night by request, '"John Martin's Secret" Friday night, "A Woman's Honor" Saturday nlgbt and "Sunsot Mines "to-night.

"You never miss the wator till tho woll runs dry," but you miss It mighty bad then as hundreds of people In this county are now testifying. Springs that never wore dry before in sixty years have failed and water for ordinary house use is becoming a serious prob lem, to say nothing of water fur stock. The oldoet inhabitants of the oounty do not remember a season in which there was no rainfall up till this lute in tho full. Should thu present weather continue it will be the most remarkable winter that ever the people of this county saw. Tbe wondor Is that there Is not more fever and sickness throughout the oounty, when most of tho people are drinking water from springs and wolls almost dry. We should not be surprised If an epidemic follows this dry spell, and people should uso every caution and boll all wator that Is suepoctod. Clarion Republican, Letter List.

Kent, of Ithaca, N. Y., Cornell authority on football, to whom the dispute In the game that was play ed In DuBols Nov. 3rd between tbe "Indian" football team of Reynoldsville and the Rldgway team was referred, has given a decision In favor of the Reynoldsville team. Will C. Smith, of Reynoldsville, was umpire and Mr. McClaln, of Ridgway, was referee. Following Is Mr. Kent's decision ; "Foot Ball Club, Reynoldsville, Pa., Gentlemen : 'In reply to your communication of the 0th Inst, will say, that each official n a football game has certain duties to perform, and only those given him under the rules. It Is folly to Interpret the rules so as to give the referee the power of the umpire In any way. One might as well say the umpire could Insist on the referee making a ruling which he refused to make as to say tbe referee could Insist on the umpire de claring a foul which he did not see. Each officer Is absolute In bis own field of duties. The referee can make no rulings, nor can be Insist upon any being made, under rule 17. Tbe enforcement of this rule Is entirely within tbe um pire's province. Tbe umpire can seek Information, but a referee can not volunteer It, except on tbe point of coaching ; and when asked for Informa tion, need not necessarily Influence tbe umpire. The umpire can do absolutely as he pleases. Tbe same as can the referee In his particular field. I should say, therefore, that the referee went beyond his official duties In dictating to the umpire. As to the forfeiture, rule 28 'C gives just two grounds for for feiting a game : refusal to play and committing fouls near the goal line. Tbe first Is probably relied upon In this Instanco. But since It was 'A' team that rofuscd to play the game should have been forfeited to the 'B' team. A game is not forfeited if doclaredadraw. The one that forfeits must necessarily suffor something. If such rulings as this referee made should become the custom wo would soon see the defeated team raising a rumpus so as to forfeit the game and not suffer defeat. One can easily seo tho death of the game when such a thing becomes possible. Moreover, tbe referee, having once made the ruling that the touchdown was valid, should have at least allowed tbe score to stand. Generally when a game is forfolted by a team refusing to play tbe opposing team Is given the game by the store of A to 0. When both teams are In fault the soore Is 0-0. But here In your case the 'B' team was not In the controversy. The dispute was solely between or among the 'A' team, the umpire and the referee. The referee had no right to declare the umpire at fault and also punltsh 'B' team. The umpire alone could declare 'B' In fault, and since he did not do so the referee should have abldod by his decision and called tbe game to go on. In the event of refusal he could only award tbe game to 'B' by any score he saw fit. But in my opinion he was not justified in call ing It a draw. If 'B' had scored and he had already allowed tbe score. Hop ing this will prove satisfactory to some of the disputants, I am" Yqurs truly, Ralph S. Kent, Ithaca. N. Y.
