CouxciL MEETING.—At meeting of
borough council last Monday evening
James I. McClure, overseer of poor,
wanted to know what balance was due
him on account of broken stone, but he
could not be informed us the street com-
missioners had not rep rted the amount
of stone used.
In regard to water tax Mr. Potter
reported that Friday, July 24th, was
the day fixed for holding the water tax
appeal. In regard to the laying of the
tax, the commissioners reported that
they had laid the same on what is
known as theroom system, that is, so
much per room. By this way some
taxes were lowered and others raised.
The mill rate of taxes for the succeed-
ing year was made the same as last—10
for interest, 2 for borough and 3 for
street pnrposes.
As a representative of the Board of
‘Water commissioners Mr. Isaac Mitchell
made a statement regarding the laying
of water tax. He said that the tax this
year had been laid on the basis of 80
cents per room in the house, Although
this was considered a just way of laying
the tax the commissioners do not con-
sider the system by any means a per-
fect one. And they would suggest to
the council the advisability of sending
some one, who understood the system in
vogue here and the difficulties that have
arisen in the past from an apparent un-
equal and unjust assessment, to Altoona
and Danville, at both of which places
the tax is assessed on the room system,
to inquire into and find out the basis of
their calculation. The suggestion was
made with a view to establishing a just
system of water taxation and then
to make the same permanent by the
passing of an ordinance. By this
way every renter will know just
what water tax he will have to pay when
he examines a house, and every pro-
perty owner will at all times know just
what his tax will be.
In Danville there is an assessment on
the real estate of 12 mills water tax and
then an assessment on the room system.
For instance: Take a property valued
at $5,000. A twelve mill tax thereon
would be $60. Ifthe house contained
ten rooms, at an additivual 80 cents per
room assessement, it would make $8
additional, or a total of $68 on the pro-
perty. Of course, it would not be nec-
cessary to lay such a large millage as
the above in Bellefonte, but that is the
basis of the proposed assessment.
As a suitable man to send to these
places to investigate their systems, Mr.
Charles Smith was suggested. The
council will hold the matter under con-
sideration until the next meeting night
when itis likely some action will be
taken.
President Potter made an explanation
regarding the iron fence purchased by
the county commissioners for around
the big spring. It bad been reported that
the fence in question was not the pro-
perty of the county but belonged to the
borough, having been paid for by sub-
scription of the citizens. This, how-
ever, was found to be a mistake ; as it is
on record thatit was purchased and
paid for by the county authorities and
the first price thereof was $1287.
Tar OLD WAR GOVERNOR WITH THE
VETERANS.-~Nobody atthe G. A.R.
encampment at Williamsport last week
attracted so much attention as the ven-
erable and distinguished “War Gover-
nor” of the State, Hon. Andrew G.
Curtin. Whenever he appeared dense
crowds surrounded him and his words
were listented to with the most earnest
attention. In the published account of
the preceeding of the camp we find the
following :
“At the close of the prin-
cipal business the old War Governor
responded to a vociferous call for a
speech, being greeted with tumultuous
applause. He reviewed the history of
the formation of the Reserves, and the
urgant appeals made by the Washing-
ton authorities to have them sent for-
ward after the Bull Run defeat. He
assured them that they had undoubt-
edly saved the capital. He had been
told by General Johnston, before the
death of the latter, that he kad his army
in hand ready to move into Washing-
ton, but having learned of the arrival
of troops from the north, he changed his
arrangemer.ts and Washington escaped.
The Governor afso, in speaking of the
material composing the Reserves, stated
that there were no drafted men in their
ranks. There were other regiments
from the State as good as any of the re-
serve regiments, but there were none
any better. He spoke of the thinning
ranks, and said that he might not have
many more opportunities to meet with
them. He hoped when he died that
some of them would strew flowers upon
his grave.”
SHE WALKED IN HER SLEEP,--A
young woman whose parents reside near
Lamar, Cliaton county, has been work-
ing for some time past at the house of a
neighbor, about a half mile from her
home. One night recently she went to
bed as usual and was considerably sur-
prised when she woke up next morning
to find herself in her father’s barn. She
had walked half a mile and climbed to
the haymow in her sleep.

00 from Detroit, or $18.00 from Cleve-
land, for the round trip, including meals
and berths.
——Mr. Austin King, Mine Inspec-
tor of this district, is to be compliment-
ed on carrying of the prize of $100 re-
cently offered by the Pittsburg Zimes
for the best article showing how to pre-
vent accidents in mines. It was an
able document, and reflects great credit
on Mr. King’s knowledge of mines and
nmining.— Philipsburg Journal.
——During a severe storm which vis-
ited Pine Glenn last week lightning

his farming implements burned, but suc-
ceeded in getting his horses all out.
Had the rain not descended shortly after
the barn was on fire not a building on
the place would have been saved. Loss
to the estate over one thousand dollars.

ty-four miles west of Harrisburg, Pa., in

BASEBALL AT PHILIPSBURG —Satur-
day’s Ledger says: The State College
base ball team came over to town on
Wednesday morning and played the
Philipsburg 2nd Nine in the afternoon,
defeating the home team by a score of 6
to 4. The victory swelled the col-
legiate’s heads and they challenged the
1st Nine. The game was played on
Thursday afternoon, and the home team
scalped the visitors to the tune of 7 to 4.
The college boys went home on Thurs-
day evening. They were a set of
gentlemen, and made a favorable im-
pression on our people.
It Was Nor A Suvccess.—The Wil-
liamsport Republican says that the
Grand Army encampment there was not
asuccess: ‘It fell far below the ex-
pectations of Williamsport peoplé, who
had prepared to welcome four orfive
thousand people and were compelled to
distribute the welcome among five or
six hundred. Of course those G. A. R.
men who came were not to blame, but
those who remained away ought to be
ashamed of themselves. It was a dis-
appointment all around. The people of
Williamsport were disappointed in
not finding more of their comrades
here.”
Deare AND History.— Last Satur-
day at twenty-five minutes after one
o’clock, Mrs. James Judge departed this
life, at her home on North Main street,
of old age superinduced by dysentery.
As Mary Finnegan she was born in
Sligo county, Ireland, in 1815, and in
February, 1841, was married to James
Judge, who came to this country, in
1849, settling at Bald Eagle and Birm-
ingham and afterwards near what is Ty-
rone. He left behind him his wife and
three children who immigrated to this
country in 1852 and joined the head of
the family here, where they have since
resided. The deceased is therefore in
her seventy-fifth year.
She is survived by her aged husband
and three sons, who are Michael, of this
place, Dominick, of Bellefonte, and
James of Carson City, Nevada. Two
children, John and Mary, have preceded
her to the grave. The Tyrone corres-
pondent to the Altoon Tribune gives
the following interesting facts regarding
the death of her son John.
“Daring the war, when Lee invaded
Pennsylvania, all the machinery in the
shops and other property in the offices
of the Pennsylvania railroad at Altoona
together with the assets of the banks
then of that place and adjoining towns,
were shipped to Snow Shoe City, on the
Bellefonte and Snow Shoe railroad, for
safety. Upon a rumor ofa probable
attack from the rear all the available
force of the Tyrone division was called
into requisition and sent to Snow Shoe,
While on the way, between Julian Far-
nace and Unionville, the men, while ex-
perimenting with their muskets, her son
John Judge was shot accidently in the,
right leg witha load of buckshot, and was
taken to Bellefonte and from there to his
home where he died from the effects of
the wound some thirteen days thereafter.
Road Supervisor Surse had charge of the
company, with John Adair as lievten-
ant.” — Tyrone Herald.
| FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT ON THE
| BALD EAGLE VALLEY.—-Last Wednes-
day morning another fatal railroad ac-
cident occurred on the Bald Eagle Val-
ley Railroad, causing the death of one
man and inflicting serious injury on two
others. The casually was caused by a
wreck which happened to the early
morning passenger train which leaves
Lock Haven at 4.05 and arrives in Belle-
fonte at 4.55. When this train was ap-
proaching Howard, at a point near the
rolling mill at that place, the engine
struck a cow that was attempting to
cross the track. The engineer saw the
animal and immediately reversed the
engine, but the train was going too fast
to be stopped. The pilot failed to knock
the animal out of the way, and its car-
cass raised the engine from the track and
threw it over on the left side of the road,
it being followed by the tender. The
engineer was Frank Woods, son of D.
D. Woods, of Tyrone. He was thrown
under the wreck, with the coal from the
tender {piled on him, and was held in
this position until those who came to his
relief were able to extricate him. He
did not outwardly appear to have sus-
tained much injury, but he was injured
internally, dying about six o’clock. The
fireman, William Spyker, when he saw
the dangerous situation, jumped with a
view of escaping destruction, but he
was caught in the fragments of the
wrecked engine and was badly cut about
the head, but not fatally injured. Al
Waite, an express agent, suffered a com-
pound fracture of the scull and was bad-
ly scalded. His recovery is doubtful.
He was not regularly engaged or this
trip in his capacity as express agent, as
he did not belong to the train in ques-
tion, but, being on his vagation, he had
been invited by engineer Woods to take
aride with him over the road on his
engine. Unfortunately he took the
friendly ride at the time when this
dreadful accident was pending. The
circumstances make his case a sad one.
The engine and tender were completely
wrecked. As the passenger cars did not
leave the track none of the passengers
were hurt. The track was torn up for
a considerable distance.
Engineer Woods, a resident of Ty-
rone, was about 40 years of age, a wid-
ower, with a son about 12 years old.
He was a man of good character and
much respected. Fireman Spyker and
express agent Waite both belong to
Lock Haven.
Tue New INSANE AsyrLum.—On
Tuesday evening the committee that
has in charge the movement for the lo-
cation of the new State [nsane Asylum
at some point near Bellefonte, met in the
arbitration room. Among others pre-
sent was Governor Beaver who said that
he had been looking around for suitable
places, and that the one which would be
best suited for the purpose was out at
Pleasant Gap, where everything requir-
ed can be found, Other locations had
been menticned, at Snow Shoe Intersec-
tion and near Boiling Springs, but none
met the requisites so completely as the
Pleasant Gap location,
On Thursday Dr, Kerwin, of the
‘Warren asylum, chairman of the com-
mission appointed to locate the new in-
stitution, was, in this place, to see the
inducements which [this neighborhood
may offer for the purpose, and he was
taken to the different points by the com-
mittee.
A Dog WirH A Goop MEMORY.—
Says the Lock Haven Democrat :
About two years ago D. Scott Peck, of
this city, gave away a pet dog to a party
in Sunbury, by whom he was taken off
on a train. This morning one of Mr.
Peck’s little girls saw the dog go up the
steps of their former residence on Corn-
ing street and scratch at the door for ad-
mission. She called the poor animal by
name and he at once came running to
her as pleased and glad as a dog could
be and showing in every act and motion
his joy at getting back among his form-
er friends. The little girl took the dog
home to where the family now live,
‘corner of Bald Eagle and Vesper streets
and says she won’t give him up any
more.
Dears oF Rev. VoNapa.—Rev,
Israel Vonada, a weil known and high-
ly esteemed citizen of the north pre-
cinct of Gregg township, died Friday of

plectic stroke. Deceased was 56 years,
9 months and 19 days old at the time of
his death. He leaves a wife, two sons,

Lock Haven jail for committing assault
and battery on Mrs. Smead, has given

he not placed him in chains, and the
young man is now kept chained to the
floor,

accidental collision, the bull not being
vicious, the two animals having tried
to pass each other through a narrow
space at the barn, with a result as above
mentioned. The horse was a gentle
animal, much valued as a family pet,
and had been left with Mr. Miller to be
pastured.
——Mr. Samuel Hull, an old and

three daughters, one of whom is Mrs.
Frank Wescoat, the others being un-
married. The funeral will take place

A RerorM MoveEMENT.--The young
ladies of Mt. Union, Huntingdon coun-
ty, have inaugurated a movement tn
bring the young men of that locality to
their senses, and also to advance their
own matrimonial prospects,which might
be imita ed with advantaze in this and
other places. They have resolved upon
a method of reclaiming the wayward
young men of the place,who are accused
also of lacking in sociability. In order
to “bring the negligent young gentle-
men to their senses,” as one of the young
women expressed it, a society has been
formed with the view of inaugurating a
series of sociables. The society num-
bers among its members many of the
best looking young ladies, who are gov-
erned by a president and other officers,
who in turn are held to a rigid observ-
ance of the constitution and by-laws ad-
opted by the association.
Each member must in turn give a
party to which all the members of the
society and the backward young men
are to be invited. A fine is to be col-
lected 1f any member provides more than
one kind of cake or more than one kind
~f fruit or beverage at any entertain-
ment. A fine is imposed upon
any young lady who shall refuse to per-
form any part assigned to her or shall
refuse to sing or play when asked to do
so. A double fine will be collected if a
young lady shall wait to be asked a sec-
ond time to sing or play, or who shall
make an excuse that she is out of prac-
tice or has a cold or that she doesn’t
play for company.
