Looks Like Axorsek THROUGH
Lixu.—Some weeks ago the WarcH-
MAN mentioned the fact that rumors |
| were afloat to the effect that the exten- |
{ sion of the Beech Creck railroad, now |
meant |
more than an effort to reach additional |
coal fields. From developments within
the past month, it now looks to bea
certainty that this competitor of the
Pennsylvania railread, for business in
the soft coal regions, proposes pushing
on through the state to western connec-
tions that will give to the public anoth-
through line from New York to
Chicago. Shortly afier the great rail.
road deal that caused the abandonment
of the completion of the south Penn:
and would have consolidated the interests
of the Beech Creek and Pennsylvania
but for interference of the democratic,
Attorney General, who insisted on the
enforcement of the constitutional pro-
vision preventing the consolidation of
the stock or franchises of parallel or
competing lines, an agreement was enter-
ed into between the parties owning the
Beech Creek road, and the Pennsyl-
vania company, by which the former
was restricted in the building of branch-
es, or extensions to lands owned by |
them. This bargain it is said, was the |
cause of the Beech Creek interest refus-
ing to have anything to do with the
building of a branch to this place. It
limited them in going west to a point 21
miles southwest of Clearfield at Mehaf-
fey, where it met the Bells Gap road.
This agreement was religiously lived
up ‘too so long as it suited the interests
of the parties making it, to do so.
Some six months ago under the pre-
tence of developing lands, belonging to
parties whose interest were with the
Beech Creek company, work was begun
on an extension west of the present
terminus of the Beech Creek, and at
this writing the line has been located
and occupied clear to the Indiana
county line and engineers are busy
sticking stakes and securing rights of
way still further west. The fact that
the company did not stop whene their
coal fields were practically reached, but
are keeping on, as if the purpose was to
cross Indiana and Armstrong. counties
and connect with the Pittsburg and
Western at some accessible point, has
given rise to general belief, that
the Beech Creek extensions now
going on in Clearfield means in addi-
tion to the opening of new coal fields
another through and shorter route be-
tween Chicago and New York.
How much foundation there is for
this belief outside of the facts stated we
do not know. It isfrom the general
trend of affairs, rather than any positive
knowledge or purposes of those at the
bottom of the enterprise, that the im-
pressions have grown tg beliefs, that an-
other through lineis to be established,
and one that will come within easy
reach of Bellefonte. So far the Beech
Creek, which occupies the entire north-
ern part of our county, has been of but
little practical advantage to anybody or
any interests hereabout. With the ex-
ception of what coal it may carry for
the Lehigh company its trafic from this
county practically amounts to nothing.
If however the much talked of through
line should be completed which would
give direct communication with New
York, as well as an outlet west, it is en-
tirely probable that thebranch from this
place to Beech Creek, would be built at
once, and we would have whatever ben-
efit competing lines bring.
A GREAT ATTRACTION FOR PHILIPS-
BURG.—On Monday afternoon, Nov.
23rd, the theatre going public, of Philips-
burg will have an opportunity of hear-
ing the world renowned Austrian Ju-
venile Band, which is now making its
first American tour, under the manage-
ment which made the tour of the Strauss
orchestra so successful. The Austrian Ju-
venile Bandis composed of fortylads,each
one of whom is a musical phenome-
non.They have been especially selected
for their proficiency and the general in-
telligence they have developed in the
long tuition and experience they have
undergone. This is certainly a fine
attraction and the manager of the Phil-
ipsburg Opera House is to be congratu-
lated on having secured a date from such
an organization and if the house is not
crowded on Monday afternoon it will
be a great reflection on the people of
that community.
THE LogANs ARE PrEPARING.—The
annual New Year’s balls given by the
Logan Fire Co., of this place, have been
going on for so many years that with
the coming of the Holiday season there
is always the asSurance that one big
dance will make things gay tor awhile
at least. The Logans are preparing to
give a ball this time that will outshine
any of their formar ones and when they
undertake a thing they usually accom-
plish it. They are looking around for a
strictly first class orchestra and every
little detail of arrangement will be care-
fully attended to. The dance will be
time comes you should be prepared to
given in Bush’s Arcade and when the
go or lend your support to makeit a
success. Think of the excellent work
the Logans have already done with
their pretty little steamer and then you
can’t resist helping the ball, the pro-
ceeds of which are to help pay for it. |

times when needed the most. In the
disbanded organization, there was much
good material for a most excellent and
effective company and we hope the ac-
tion of council, will not have the effect
of driving them out.
A StraNgER Case DEcipeEDp.—The
first Vol. of Francey Speer’s new novel
appeared on Wednesday night. The
title of the work ‘‘a stranger case decid-
ed or how I took a run” seems to have
been exceptionally appropriate and the
introductory and first part Strangely
realistic, The plot is laid in Bellefonte
and many of the characters are familiar
to our readers, though their real names
are nicely disguised by the author. Not
having the space to publish a review of
the book in this week’s issue we will
give a few extracts from the third chap-
ter. From the parts of the book we
have thus far perused it seems to be an
autobiography of a certain ‘keen and
ubiquitous reporter’ and smacks very
materially of the every day writings of
a journalist on an inland daily. In the
third chapter the supposed hero and au-
tobiographer is prettily introduced, to
the reader, by the author and then to
show that even newspaper men are sus-
ceptible he runs off in the following
strain : “It was Wednesday night.

to the bleak November winds as they
moaned and whistled through the naked
limbs of trees which but a few weeks
since had been resplendent in their gor-
geous autumn clothes, and thinking of
the bright cheerfulness within, I little
thought that this night was to forever
blight the hopes which I could not but
nurture in my breast. In the midst of
my reverie the door opened and a sweet
voice bade me welcome.

Govero His Raest.—Last week we
briefly mentioned the death of William
Meek which ocenrred at the residence of
his son about 6 miles south east of this
place, on October 3ist. Since that time
we have learned fuller particulars con-
corning his life and we prasent jthem to
our readers.
Mr. Meek was porn in Halfmoon
township, Centre county, Pennsylvania,
in the year 1805. He was reared to
manhood in that county, but in the year
1344 be started for what was then the
tar distant west. He finally located in
DeKalb county where he resided until
called hence. Some time before his de-
mise he directed what disposition should
be made of his personal and other prop-
erty. IIe was the owner of considerable
property among which was a gold nug-
gat given to him in about the year 1850.
This he requested should be presented
to Rev. Calvin Moore. He also donat-
ed money to Revs. digdon and Murray.
All of these gentlemen are ministers of
he Predestinarian Baptist church and
in which faith Mr. Meck was a believer.
| Although 86 years old, he was strong
and vigorous and could frequently be
seen walking up and down our streets
with a firmness of step that indicated
vitality sufficient to carry him through
many more years of life. But he was
taken sick about the first of October
and under the weight of yeurs soon
succumbed to disease. He was an hon-
est industrions man and commanded
tha confidence and respect of those who
knew him.
He leaves three chiidren to mourn
his loss. They are George W., Abner
N. and Henry M. Meek. The two for-
mer live at Graphic, Arkansas, and the
latter lives six miles south-east of Mays-
ville.
His remains were laid to rest in the
Redman graveyard by the side of his
wife and two brothers, Richard and
George Meek, who preceded him to
rest a number of years ago.
Father Meek and the writer wero
born in the same county, and not long
ago wehad a conversation with him in
reference to matters at our old home.
How it gladdened his heart as we re-
counted the changes that had taken
placesince he left the county nearly
fifty years ago. Occasionally we could
name some old veteran whom he knew
long ago, and who, like himself, had
lived through the storms of life with
the weight of many years resting upon
him. In an hour’s talk with him he
seemed to live his young life over again,
and it did our soul good to cheer him
as the last lingering rays of life's sun-
light wera seemingly lengthening out
to warm his heart once more in the
glorious memories of boyhood’s golden
days. Beis gone. Peace to his ashes.

Waar Councin Dip.—On Monday
evening council convened for the tran-
saction of Borough business and several
members were absent. Hillibish, presi-
dent pro-tem, presided during the first
part of the meeting, but later president
Potter took his seat.
Clerk Mitchell read the minutes of
the previous meeting and they were
adopted without correction, W. L.
Malin representing ths American Lele-
phone Co., then presented a request to
be allowed the privilege of entering
Bellefonte with a long distance line.
The request was granted and the street
committee will direct the placing of the
poles. The next business to be transact-
ed was the settlement of the difficulties
surrounding the Undine Hose Co. At
the last meeting a committee was ap-
pointed to look into the affairs of the
company and when it reported, on
Monday night, the account was awful
We have already published the condi-
tion in which the Undines have been
for some time so it would be useless to
go over the whole report. Two factions
have been trying to run the house and
council decided to re-organize the com-
pany itself. Accordingly a committee
was appointed to confer with certain cit-
izens of the South ward as the best me-
thods to pursue. The question of a
drain pipe down High street, from the
Court House, was next taken up and
discussed at length. Commissioner
Adams was present and said that the
commissioners were willing to lay a
six-inch waste pipe down High street
from the court house to the creek, bat if
the borough wanted a ten-inch pipe the
council would have to pay the differ-
ence. If the council wanted Ts atevery
hundred feet they wouid have to pay
the addiiional cost of putting them’in.
The council granted the commission.
ners the privilege of laying a straight
six-inch pipedown High street to the
the creek. They didn’t say how many
Ts were to be put in so as to accommo-
date property owners who live on th
street. The case was dropped and we
believe that the commissioners will lay
the pipe as they first intended. The
idea of running the waste into the old
well which is covered up by the Foun-
tain has been abandoned. A number of
board walks were directed to be laid and
many bills approved, after which coun-
cil adjourred.

which leaves here at seven o’clock for
Sunbury and points east, W. H. Mich-

out after it and the unfortunate brake-
man, not noticing its approach until
too late, jumped only to be knocked
down by the pilot. One pony wheel
passed over his ankle mashing it in a
very painful manner. He was picked

Tor WiILLiAMsPorT'S OUT CLASSED.
—On Saturday last the Young Men's
Christian Association foot bail team of
Williamsport came up to play the Re-
serves, of the Penn. State College. The
game was called shortly after two
o’clock and play commenced. For a
time it looked very much as though the
contest would bea close one, but ere
long the collegians began to manifest
their superiority and walked right away
with their opponments. The visitors
played a very neat, gentlemanly game,
but were entirely out-classed when
bucking against the tricky and hard
playing Reserves. The game through-
out was void of interest except in so far
as an occasional good run or tackle
called forth the cheers of the spectators.
It was the first contest held on the new
athletic field and the beauty of its lo-
cation as well as its periect appointments
made it the source of admiration of the
many visitors present. Tne final score
was 42 to 6.
