CounciL's LoNG SgssioN.--The reg-
ular semi-montbly meeting of council
convened on Monday evening and from |
the time president Potter's gavel fell,
at half past seven o'clock, untl ten, the
meeting was one of unusual interest.
All of the members were present and
took active part in the many questions
brought under discussion. |
Perhaps the transaction which will
mean the most to the citizens of our |
town was the motion to confer the en-
tire control of police regulations —out-
side of the pay and appointments—upon
the chiet burgess. Thus it will be seen
that Mr. Meyer will, during his term of
office, be entirely responsible for the
proper police regulations of our town.
If he instructs his officers to arrest all
drunk and profane persons, on the
streets, he will have done the town an
everlasting good and will receive the
approbation of all good citizens. It is
understood that the burgess is determin-
ed to break up street corner loafing
which has become. so vbnoxious. If
this be true the women of Bellefonte
will have every reason to thank him tor
affording them the privilege of using |
streets which profanity aod indecent re-
marks have long made too foul for them.
Chiet among the business brought be-
fore the Street committee was ine request
for a sewer along the alley leading past
Baum’s and the Brockerhoff house liv-
ery stables to carry off refuse which now
is becoming a nuisance on Allegheny
and Spring streets. An incandescent
light was ordered placed on Toomas
street, mid-way between the High and
Lamb streets,
Solicitor Dale was present to present
Poor Oversger Jas. I. McClure's boad
for $5,000 which was accepted by coun-
cil. He also informed the memoors
that the case of the borough vs Samuel
H. Deinl, arising out of the supposed
appropriation of borough property in
his lov on Willowbank street, would be
on trial during the second week of the
April term of court. .
The Water committee reported its
work 1n good condition and recommend-
ed the laying of a three 10ch main from
Lamb to Lina street, so as to give the
people of the northern section of the
town a better watersupply. Complaint
was made that the pipes on Beaver
street failed to give any water, owing to
a supposed clogging up. The commit-
tee was ordered to look afier the matter.
According to Engineer Samuel Ryan's
statement the water works are supply-
ing each man, woman and child In
town with 3} barrels ot water daly.
A strict party vote, 6 to 3, re-elected
Thomas Snaughensy Street Commission-
er over Mr. Howley, the Democratic
candidate.
Just before council adjourned Mr.
Miller, member from the North ward,
presented a resolution which promises to
be the cause of no httle comment. By
along drawn out preamble and petition
praying the rem val of certain nui-
sances which are supposed to exist and
working on the credulity of his brother
erancilmen, by bringing in the cholera
scare, he concludes with a blow at the
cow. How Mr. Milier ever raked up
courage enough to so boldly attazk the
cow question 8 the unanswered 1nter-
rogation which older members of coun
cil are now putting to each other. His
petition reads as tollows :
To the President and Members of tie Town Coun-
cil of the Bo:ough of Bellefonte.
The pe ition of the undersigned citizens of
the said borough, respectfully represents:
That whereas it will be necassary in order
to prevent our country from being visited with
the dire and fatal disease of cholera, with
which it is now threatened, to use extraordi-
pary sanitary means and measures to protect
ourselves against the same, and
WuEeRreas, kvery community and borough
throughout the State and country, having a
due aud proper regard for the health and wel-
fare of its citizens and inhabitants are taking
vigorous measures to protect them against
tne scourges of the said dread disease :
Therefore, we pray that the Town Council of
Bellefonte, will promptly and speedily, pass an
ordinance, requiring all filth, offal and debris
found in alleys, yards or c=llars to b2 remov-
ed and cleaned up and also to pass an ordi:
nance, prohibiting cows and other cattle and
stock from running at largein the said Bor.
ough ot Bellefonte, adopt any other sanitary
measures and regulations as in your judgment
and wisdom may seem meet and proper.
That you having ample power to act in the
matter, we earnestly pray that you will do so
promptly and effectively. And we will ever
pray.

BELLEFONTE PROPERTIES CHANGE
HaNnDs.—Archy Allison has purchased
the Mrs. William Humes property on
north Allegheny strest. Samuel Rey-
nold’s Jr., of Lancaster, has become the
owner of Dr. Thos. R. Hayes’ property
on Linn street. It adjoins the home
of W. Fred Reynolds and it is supposed
that the purchaser intends making
Bellefonte his future home, as the great
amount ot work that devolves on him as
one of the administrators of his late
uncle’s immense" estate will necessitate
his spending most of his time here. Dr.
Hayes has purchased the Andrew Cur-
tin property on east Curtin street.

DisAsTROUS FIRE IN SNOW SHOE. —
At aa early hour on Moaday morning
fia nes wera discovered shooting from
the rear of a two-story frame building
in Snow Shoe, the lower fl yor of which
was occupied by the store of Miss Brid-
get Smith und before the slumbering
populace was thorouzaly aroused the
fla nes had gained such headway that
all that could be done was the saving of
aljoining property. Taetown has no
organized fire depirtmsat and the
wrk of the bucket brigade had very
little effect on the tisrce flames. Toney
spread to the dwelling house owned and
o:cupied by Charles Diagle. Ii was
quickly consumed as was also a large
barn owned by ’Squire Smith, waich
stood at the rear of the first building
‘buraed. Brown's jewelry store was next
to ve burned and from it the flames
danced to Joseph Smiths’ shoe shop
which was soon in ashes.
The fire was aliogether the most dis-
astrous that has occurred in the history
of Snow Shoe for s)me time and fortu-
nately a calm night preventad further
destruction.

it necessary to apologize and try to ex-
plain why he can’t take it any longer.
Generally there is a good deal of decep-
tion about these explanations—and
then it is not nedessary, anyway. If
you want to stop your paper, pay up

ty about 55 years ago, left it when quite
a little girl and the chief remembrance
of her bas been through her gener-
ous hospitality at her beautiful southern
home and a summer she spent at the
Bush house with her family some years
ago. She died in New York, where she
had been taken sick nearly two months
ago, while visiting friends and ber
death was a great loss to her devoted
husband and five children.
——That it is the people and not the
place that gives us the reputation of be-
ing more dead than alive, was. clearly
demonstrated last Saturday night by the
audience in the Court House. John R
Clarke, who ranks among the first lect-
urers on the American platform, came
with the highest recommendations and
the most flattering press notices, and
while it did not seem to disconcert him
in the least that only a mere handful of
people had cared to hear his “To and
Fro in London,” which had been listened
to twelve hundred times by audiences
ranging from five hundred to three thous-
and, it certainly reflected no credit on a
people who pose as intellectual and lit-
erary. Nor did it speak very well of
their general information, when the ex-
cuse was made “we knew nothing about
it.”” The newspapers all advertised him
well, and even if they are not to be de-
pended upon, the windows ware tull of
lithographs, and posters were well dis-
tributed. Certainly people have a right
to stay at home when they want from &
public entertainment, and it was their
loss not ours, Saturday night, for the
lecture was one of the most entertaining
that has ever been heard in Bellefonte.
But for the sake of our reputation don’t
crowd the free lectures alone and don’t
acknowledge that you neither read the
newspapers or keep up with the times,
even if your neighbors are well aware
of the fact,
A JUKE ON A SENATOR.—A joke is
told on one of (he State senators during
their visit to the Reformatory on Wed-
nesday of last week. One of the car-
penters was working away at the bench,
when a sanator approached him, and no-
ticed he had a number on his cap, he
began a conversation by saying :
“How long have you been in?”
The carpenter worked away without
looking at his interlocutor and replied :
“About four years.”
“What are you in for ?’’ asked the
senator.
“For $556 a month,” calmly replied
the workman,
“The senator discovered his mistake in
tuking the workman for one of the in-
mates and went off to join his brother
senators. —Huntingdon Local News.
