Locals Take Two Contests From Philips- burg and Break Even With Punxsutaw- ney—Incompetent Umpire Robs Our Own of a Game at DuBois. Patton broke even in the two games at Punxsutawney last Friday and Sat- urday, losing the first game and win- ning the second. Local rooters lost considerable money the first day, but got it all back with interest on the sec- ond. In the initial game our own could not do anything with the mysti- fying curves of Hobson, the Punxs’y pitcher, and he let them down hard without a hit. The score: PATTON.

Hertzog Met With a Horrible Death Early Yesterday Morning—The Son of Mr. and Mrs, Peter Hertzog, of This Place—Remains Brought Here. Morgan G. Hertzog, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Hertzog, of this place, and a flagman on the Pennsylvania railroad, was found dead along the tracks of the Cresson & Olearfield branch near Bakerton early yesterday morning. Whether he met his death accidentally or was murdered and then placed on the tracks is a question that is puzzling the officials. The body was found lying between the tracks with the head severed from the body. There is a suspicion of foul play in view of the fact that the dead man was fully dressed, while a short distance away from the tracks hidden in the bushes were found the shirt of a man, stained with blood, and a heavy club, which was marked with blood on one end and had what is believed to be human hair clinging to it. To add to the suspicion of foul play it is stated by trainmen who were in the vicinity early in the morning that a man was seen traveling through the bushes minus a shirt. Hertzog lived in Altoona and was a member of Conductor Charles Cooney’s crew. Just west of Bakerton early ves- terday morning the freight on which UN BY THE PUBLISHER.
