The ladies of the |
of the borough council on Monday even-
ing considerable business was done in
regard to laying out new streets and al-
leys. Solicitor Dale having presented
an ordinance to lay out an alley between
Burnside and Logan streets, from Alle-
ning east and west, Messrs. 8. D. Ray
and L. D. Schaeffer offered . that if said
ally was laid out according to the” plan
presented by them they would give the
land for the same free of charge, and al-
so give land for a cross street.
In regard to the opening of the alley
at the Academy Mr. Steele gave notice
of his intention to contest it.
Mr. E. C. Humes, by his attorney,
protested against the proposed opening
of a street from Bishop to Curtin at the
eastern limit of the town. The street
would go through his property, and it
was alleged by his attorney that it
would be an imposition on the property
owners of the locality through which it
would pass. Butif the council persisted
in passing the ordinance Mr. Humes
would ask the privilege of locating the
street, and that the street be made only
40 feet in width. Mr. Humes also per-
sonally interposed the same objections.
J. W..Gephart, Esq., appeared in be-
half of Mrs. Wilson, but, instead of op-
posing the opening of the street, he spoke
favorably thereto and urged the council
to lay out the street so as to preserve the
uniformity of the borough plot, regard-
less of who it hit and who it didn’t. Mr.
Zeller was present, not to oppose the op-
ening of said street, but to say if it was
opened he would expect damages.
Other ordinances were presented to
open High, Lamb, Linn and Curtin
streets to the eastern limits of the bor-
ough. A report from the borough engi-
neer was read recommending a number
of improvements in the northern part of
the town,
The water committee reported water
works repairs all made and that the res-
ervoir was being cleaned and the stand
pipe being erected.
The election of Mr. A. S. Garman, as
Chief Fire Marshal; Hard P. Harris,
as I'irst Assistant, and James Stott, as
Second Assistant, was presented to coun-
cil and confirmed.
The report of the borough engineer
and street committee regarding the new
boardwalks was adopted and property
owners will be given until the 8th of
September to put down the walks.
In regard to the alley east of the Ac-
ademy Solicitor Dale stated that he had
made a thorough investigation and was
satisfied in his own mind that there was
an ailey there: There was considerable
discussion pro and con when council took
a vote on the ordinance and the same
was carried.
In regard to the ordinance for an al-
ley between Burnside and Logan street
the same was referred to the street com-
mittee and borough engineer for investi-
gation and report at the next meeting.
In the matter of laying out the cross
street from Bishop to Curtin the same was
referred to the street committee and bor-
ough surveyor forthe purpose of posi-
tively lo-cating the eastern line of ‘the
borough and report same to the borcugh
solicitor who will then prepare the ordi-
nance in accordance therewith and report
same at the next meeting, when said ordi-
nance would be acted upon.
Courcil voted instructing the street
committee to have the borough engineer
give the grade of Ridge street to Mr. E.
T. Tuten; as requested. {
A motion was made and passed in-
structing the borough solicitor to draw
up an ordinance for the opening of Ar-
mour street.
Mr. Longacre asked that an order be
| drawn for the annual $100 appropria-
tion to the several fire companies. Ow-
ing to the low state of finances the mat-
ter was deferred until the second meet-
ing in September.
DeatH AT A Picnic.—The Tyrone
Herald says that Miss Grace Given, sec-
ond daughter of J. S. Given and wife,
of Tipton, was present at the picnic of
the Methodist Episcopal Sunday School
of Tipton, of which she was a member,
at the Preshyterian church near Tipton
on Saturday. The young lady was
seemingly in the best of health and was
enjoying the company of her young as-
saciates, when death suddeniy entered
the merry party and gaiety gave way to
gloom.
Miss Given was suddenly and unac-
countably stricken with heart disease
ard in u very few moments from the time
of the fatal stroke, she had expired. ~ All
efforts to resuscitate her were of no avail.”
Dr. W. TF. Beck, of Tyrone, was imme-
diately summoned, by telephone, and at
once responded, but the young lady
was beyond all human aid. The sad
event has cast a pall over her large cir-
cle of friends. Deceased was aged 20
years, 2 months and 27 days. Funeral
services were conducted at the home of
parents at 8 o’clock Monday morning,
by ber pastor Rev. J. B. Stein, of Bell-
wood, and interment followed in the
Tyrone cemetery.

time foreman of the electric light works

——On Saturday of last week Wil-
liam Lightner, of Beccaria township,
Clearfield county, was bitten on the
wrist by a huge rattlesnake, when some
distance from home, and having no

but little except from fright,

Mr. Geo. B. Brandon, of Belle-
fonte, National Inspector of the Union
Veteran Legion, this week was
down to Lock Haven inspecting
the members of the Legion in that local-
ity. The inspection was followed by a
supper to which forty of the veterans
did ample justice. Inspector Brandon
made a speech which the Lock Haven
papers say was full of eloquence, wit,
sentiment and patriotic fervor, eliciting
the hearty applause of the Legion, and
indicating that the love of country,
. which is the preponderating principle of
burns patriotically
and hotly in the hearts ot its members.
Disastrous consequences of guns
being pointed at people by fools who
didn’t know they were loaded, have been
numerous of late, and in that connection
it may be of interest to know that there
is a law against this fool practice: An
act of May 8th, 1878, provides: ‘Any
person within this commonwealth, who
shall playfully or wantonly point or dis-
charge a gun, pistol or other firearm at
any other person, shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor ; and, upon conviction
thereof, shall be sentenced to, pay a fine
not exceeding one thousand dollars, and
undergo an imprisonment not exceeding
one year, or either or both, at the dis-
cretion of the court.”

well known and was generally eonsider-

girls, and a prodigal with his money to
all. He was married, set up an expen-
sive household, had a great fancy for
fast horses, took parties to the seaside
and paid their expenses, but the bank
proprietors had the utmost confidence in
his integrity ; he was attentive to his
duties, and the books and assets of the
bank were apparently all right. - He ex-
plained his financial resources so largely
in excess of his bank salary by a life in-
surance agency which he was permitted
by his employers to accept, . and out of
which he claimed he was making $4000
