Taree Fires IN THREE DAys.—
Three alarms of fire in as many days is
a pretty good record, but as isinvariably
the case when Bellefonte has her first
conflagration she is never satisfied until
the third has occurred. This time they
all came in the space of five days, thus
relieving the anxiety which many
would have felt had it been otherwise.—-
But scarce had the alarm of the third
died out when a fourth and still a fifth
was rung in:
About three o’clock on last Friday af-
ternoon a spark from the stationary en-
gine in the crushing mill at Morris’
Buffalo Run lime kilns, about two miles
above town, set fire to the building. It
was a one story frame structure 75x45
in which were two stone crushers and
the engine which ran them. The flames
spread rapidly and the bucket brigade,
formed by the operators of the mill
kilns and quarries , was powerless to
stay them. Supt. Harry Gehret tele-
phoned down for the Logan steamer
which responded promptly to the call:
An engine and car being secured it was
not long until the scene of the fire was
reached. A suction pipe was thrown
right from the car into Buffalo Run
Creek and the pumps started. Though
the mili was entirely burned by the
time the fireman reached it they did ef-
fective work in saving the five kilns,
trestle work and other buildings ad-
joining the mill, The loss of $5000 is
covered by insurance. The firemen
were treated to a supper at the Bush
House by Samuel Shaffer, Mr. Morris’
Bellefonte manager.
LIGHTNING FIRES A HOUSE.
During the thunder storm on Satur-
day morning the unoccupied house,
owned by Thomas Buchanan and locat-
ed on Half Moon hill, was struck by
lightning. The electric bolt ignited the
roof and for a while it looked very much
as though the house would be de-
stroyed. The timely action of a few
people, with buckets, who live near the
house, prevented its destruction however.
The whole department hurried out in
the rain and mud, but as no water mains
run up the hill the companies all re-
turned to their houses.
SUNDAY NIGHT'S CONFLAGRATION.,
Just about the time the churches
were leaving out on Sunday night the
fire alarm sounded the South Ward call
and straightway the crowds on the street
hurried in that direction to see where the
fire was. The heavens were all illumin-
ed and at firstit was thought to be the
High School building, but further in-
vestigation located the flames out at the
old Orvis property, owned and occu-
pied by Albert Owen and family. The
firemen were all on hand promptly.
Their services were of no avail, however,
as the burning building was located at
least a half a mile away from the water
pipes.
Little is known as to how the build-
ing caught fire as Mr. Owen’s family
was away at the time, though he had
left the house shortly after seven o'clock.
On Friday and Saturday he had a fire
in the stove to take away the dampness,
but on Sunday he had left it go out.
The flames were first seen by two young
girls, who gave the alarm. Asit was a
wooden structure, the flames, fanned by
the gale which preceded the rising
storm, quickly licked it up. Only a
few articles of furniture were saved,
among them being a trunk in which
Mr. Owen’s had stored all his valuable
papers. His entire library—one of the
best in; the county--was destroyed.
During the fire a scare was raised that
be was in the burning building. It
turned out to have been only = scare, for
he had gone over to the home of his sis-
ter,on Howard street, to spend the night.
The loss will aggregate four or five
thousand dollars with an insurance on
the house of $1600, and $1000 on the
furniture.
THE 5TH ALARM RUNG IN.
After the false alarm at 6 o’clock very
little attention was paid the dismal old
fire whistle when, at 8:45, on Tuesday
night, it tooted out the alarm for the
North Ward. Almost like a flash the
heavens in the eastern end of town were
brilliantly illumined. People did not
hesitate then for it looked like a big fire,
in a very dangerous quarter, and pell-
mell through the streets the crowd rush-
ed to the scene. Not before a good run
had been made did they bring upat
the fire, for it was located in some sta-
bles at the extreme east end of Lamb
street and well back on Bunker Hill.
The stable atthe rear end of John
Gorman’s lot, occupied by Josh Folk,
on Borough alley caught first and being
full of hay it made an awful blaze. The
flames leaped across the alley to the sta-
ble at the rear of John P. Harris’ house,
on Lamb stréet, occupied by Frank
Strunk, and in a very short time it was
beyond saving. By the most heroic ef-
forts Scott Harris and a few others got
two horses out of the burning building.
It was remarkable that they accomplish-
ed it at all for they were surrounded by
flames.
Our watersupply made a miserable
showing of itself at the fire: Only
one stream could be used and then there
was not force enough to carry the stream
10ft from the nozzle. If it had been a
along Lamb street would undoubtedly
have been burned, for firemen could not
have battled with the flames without
water. As it was the fire practically
burned itself out. Though by knocking
the end out of Oliver Whitmer’s stable
it was saved from total destruction.
There is one thing that has made itself
evident within the past few days and
that is that everyone tries to get to the
fire first, never thinking how the steam-
eris to get there. On Tuesday night
the flames had almost died out before
the steamer could be gotten up the Linn
street hill and all because there was no
one to pull it. ’Squire Oliger, of Spring
township, banker Geo. W. Jackson,
Moyer Lyon and R. A. Beck, the bar-
ber, were struggling with it for a long
time and but for the timely appearance
of help the engine would hardly have
been up there yet. Hereafter when the
alarm blows run for one of the hose
houses and help pull the apparatus.
Don’t think because you are not a fire-
man that you needn’t do it. No one is
paid for the work and unless you are
hard hearted enough to see funin the
calamity that befalls another there is
certainly no use in going to a fire with-
out means of fighting it.
Mr. Harris estimates his loss at $250,
without insurance, Mr. Gorman’s will
be about the same and Messrs. Strunk
and Folk will each lose the hay that was
in their the stables.

Tae CLEARFIELD VIEW oF IT.— The
following extract from an article, rela-
ting to the mountain League, which ap-
peared in last week’s Clearfield Public
Spirit will show our readers that the
Bellefonte papers are supported in their
claims of the pennant for our elub.
“The base ball season as far as the
Mountain League is concerned closed
Saturday last at Tyrone, by the Tyrone
team defeating the Philipsburg nine by
a score of 8 to 1. This insures Tyrone
third place ‘and gives Bellefonte the
championship, Philipsburg second,
Tyrone third, Clearfield fourth and
Houtzdale fifth. Tyrone should have
first—class players hired during the sea-
son, but they over-reached themselves
several times and lost just when they
expected otherwise: Clearfield wasn’t
in the fight after the first trip, but our
team has been playing good ball for the
past two months and had anything like
it been achieved during the first part of
the season we would be at the head of
the column. Our people gave the nine
generous support. Next year it is like-
ly that the base ball fever will be bad
and Clearfield will be found ‘‘right in
and loose fielding tells their tale of woe ' windy night many of the frame houses | it” as usual,
won the pennant, as they had enough
Furnace NEws:—The fact that
Bellefonte has one industry which seems
to have some stamina about it is a source
of gratification to us all. Many were
the conjectures when the Valentine
Iron Co., was organized and the big
plant south of town put in operation.
Some said it would meet the fate of its
predecessor—the Centre Iron Co., but
others, who had more confidence in the
new management, were of the opinion
that as long as the bottom didn’t drop
out of the iron market the furnace
would continue ‘in blast.
It has now been considerable over a
year since the first run was made; June
the 10th, 1891, having been the date of
starting; and from that time until July
1st, 1892, the furnace made 35,657 gross
tons of pig iron. Of this amount 300
tons per month were used in the rolling
mill for the production of 3,579 tons of
finished iron. And to produce such a
vast amount of pig metal it required 52,-
534 tons of ore from the Nittany Valley
mines, not considering the ore and other
agents bought outside.
All departments have been running
steady except the rolling mill. Several
break downs and difficulties as to wage
scales having occurred to mar its record.
The company has found the best mark-
et for its iron and is sold up to date. It
has lately been compelled to draw on its
reserve stock to supply the great de-
mand.
Since starting two dividends
have been declared. One of 8 per cent.
last January, the other of 2 per cent.
just made. When we consider the
slump which iron has taken within the
pest year—just the period when the
company was trying to get started—the
success with which it has met seems re-
markable. Indeed, with the condition
which the market has been in during
its whole period of operation, it would
not have been a bad record if the plant
had only made expenses. But instead
it has been able to make expensive re-
pairs and improvements and pay 5 per
cent. on the stock. According to the
first annual report to the stock holders,
which was issued last Tuesday, it is the
intention of the management to increase
its mining facilities until all of the ore
used at the great plant can be secured
from the company’s own mine's thus
curtailing expenses very materially.
If you weuld liko to know how the
Valentine Iron Co. effects the business
at Bellefonte, we would say that it has
brought over $500,000 of outside money
into the town within the year and you
can draw your own conclusions.
Mgrs. GRUNDY SHOOTS HER "'DRUNK-
EN HusBAND.--From the Philipsburg
Ledger we copy the following account
of the terrible shooting of Edward Grun-
dy, which occurred at Liveright’s mines,
near Osceola Milis, on last Thursday
night:
“Its seldom that a drunken wife
beater gets his just deserts, but Edward
Grundy, mine boss at Liveright’s col-
liery, got his on Thursday night. He
lived with his wife and family in the
old John Goss homestead, about two
miles from Osceola, Sober, he was an
ordinarily good husband and father, but
drunk, he was a fiend, and abused his
tamily shamefully. On Thursday night
he came home roaring drunk at mid-
night. His wife gave birth to twins on
Tuesday night and was sick in bed.
Her sister was with her.
heard grundy staggering on the porch
they were alarmed, and when he began
beating and kicking the door Mrs.
Grundy got out of bed and hid the gun,
which stood in the corner, under the bed.
His revolver, was lying on the bureau,
she concealed it in the bosom of her night |
dress. By this time Grundy had smash-
ed the door in, and came into the house
raging like a wild beast. He first
caught sight of Mrs. O’Donnell, and
swore he would kill her, but she es-
caped out of the house to a neighbors.
Then he drove the children out, and fin-
ally turned on his wife and demanded
to know where the gun and pistol were.
She refused to tell and he ran at her
with oaths and threats. She ran out of
the house, but he pursued her and
caught her and beat and kicked her and
dragged her back into the house by the
hair. In the scuffle he caught sight of
the pistol in her bosom and grabbed for
it. She caught it, and in the struggleit
exploded, the ball striking him in the
right eye and coming out at the back of
the head. He fell.dead without a strug-
gle. Mrs. Grundy fainted. Mrs. O’-
Donnell and the children—who had fled
to Galbaith’s, the nearest neighbors,
some distance away—ventured back to
the house about 2 o'clock in the morn-
ing and found Mrs. Grundy alone with
the corpse. The older children went
out and gave the alarm and the neigh-
bors came. In the morning the author-
ities at Osceola were informed. The
coroner sent to Clearfield for the district
attorney, who came over and an inquest
was held. A verdict of accidental kill-
ing was rendered, clearing Mrs. Grun- |
dy ofany violation of the law. The
poor woman is half crazed with grief
and remorse and is in a very dangerous
condition.”

THE BELLEFONTE DEMoCRATIC CLUB.
—An enthusiastic gathering of the
young Democrats of the tewn took
place in the County Chairman’s rooms,
in the Reynolds’ bank building, on last
Monday night; the out-come of which
was the formation of a club for cam-
paign purposes. The meeting was call-
ed to order by L. A. Schaeffer, who
stated the purpose of the gathering.
Jno. C. Noll was chosen temporary
chairman and upon taking charge of the
meeting addressed it giving his {views
on the salutary effect which the organ-
ization of clubs always has on a cam-
paign. Numerous speeches were made
on the subject. Some deeming it advis-
able to form a permanent organization
while others thought that the club
should be formed to last until the 8th
of November, then if desirable continue
it as a social political club. The former
idea prevailed.
The following officers were then chos-
en to preside over the club: President
J. Mitchell Cunningham ; Vice-Presi-
dents, Lunger Wian, Spring township,
Charles R. Kurtz, Harry Fenlon and
Tae Nar. Works Looking Up.—
It has been known for some time that
the Commonwealth Guarantee, Trust
and Safe Deposit Co., of Harrisburg,
assignees of the Bellefonte Nail Co.,
have been approached by various parties
who are desirous of operating the big
plant now idle at this place. Also that
none of the offers have been accepted by
the assignees.
The following advertisement appeared
in the “Want” columns of the Pitts-
burg Dispatch on last Saturday and
Sunday and has stirred the matter up
afresh.
AN—Practical rolling mill man
wanted. A salary and share of pro-
fits in the business will be given to aman

burg, Pa., C E. Pope, 421 Wood St., Pittsburg.
Just what it amounts to no one about
here is able to tell, but appearances are
to the effect that the assignees are de-
sirious of putting the plant in operation
for the benefit of its creditors.

Nittany valley have reason to rejoice
