. Have TeEM CoME TO BELLEFONTE.
—Now that we have an active Board of
. Trade let it be up and doing for the best
interests ot the town. Ifa sharp look-
out is kept for any possible enterprises
there can be no doubt that several can
be secured at least. Of course many of
the advertisements, which we see daily,
and which schemers put in the papers
to catch commuuities, are impositions
which when followed up prove to be the
work of irresponsible parties who want
to be set up in business by others whom
they will later fleece.
There are, however, many reputable
concerns that are looking around for lo-
cations a few of these, when shown the
superior advantages of Bellefonte, from
s manufacturing stand-point, would un-
doubtedly grasp the opportunity, if the
proper inducements were offered.
There are at present two gentlemen
traveling through Pennsylvania looking
up a desirable location for a glass works.
They have been in a number of the
larger towns in tho north eastern part of
the State. The fact that they ask no
aid whatever from the communities in
which they have thought of "locating,
further than concessions as to terms for
a limited period, seems the best of evi-
dence that they mean business and are
not impostors. It might be well for
the secretary of our Board of Trade to
open a correspondence with them.
‘With an excellent glass plant standing
idle in this place, with every facility,
such as sand, coal, railroads and the
other agencies that enter into the eco-
nomic manufacture of glass, our boom-
ers ought to have little trouble in mak-
ing a very favorable showing for Belle-
fonte.
George Peters and P. J. Driscoll, of
Spring City, are the gentlemen whom
we refer to. They represent a company
recently organized in Spring City and
Royer’s Ford. .
A Case THAT WILL INTEREST THE
LivERYMEN.—A suit for damages that
will be of interest to liverymen particu-
larly and to the public generally will be
tried in the Sunbury courts. The par-
ticulars of the case are taken from the
Daily, of that place: John Hoffman,
of Delaware township, intends bringing
suit for damages against Allen Kremer,
of Watsontown. Hoffman isa farmer
and lives at Sinking Springs. Several
weeks ago, while returning home from
‘Watsontown, a runaway team dashed
into his buggy, reducing it to splinters.
The buggy was a new one and cost $200,
Hoffman’s horse was injured by being
pierced in the breast with a broken shaft.
The runaway team was from Kremer’s
livery stable, and Hoffman alleges that
the horses have been in the habit of
running away. The man who hired
the team says the liverymen did not tell
him of this habit and that he thought
the horses were perfectly safe, Hoffman
will claim damages for his buggy and
horse from Kremer and will base his
claim on the charge of contributory
negligence. Kremer is a son of ex-Sher-
iff Jacob Kremer and is proprietor of
the Mansion house, at Watsontown.-~-
Lock Haven Democrat.
Look our For THE SLICK PREACH-
ER.—A novel swindle is being worked
in the interior counties of this and ad-
joining States. A very clerical man
appears at the house of a prosperous
farmer and annouaces that he is a min-
ister who is going to preach in a neigh-
boring church. Soon after a young
couple ride up and ask the farmer to
direct them to a minister, as they wish
to be married. The preacher offers his
service, the ceremony is performed and
the minister asks the farmer and his
wife to sign the marriage certificate.
They readily do so, and soon receive
notice of a note in bank. This is an
old scheme resurrected.—FEz.

a3 in. pipe from east Bishop street
along Wilson street, to connect with

treet. The motion was carried so that
portion of the town will get better water
service soon. Many improvements
were reported by the heads of the var-
ious committees.
The report of the assessors showed the
total assessed valuation of Bellefonte

tax laid being $19,996,94. The water
tax amounting to $4,120,50 being inclu-
ded.
Just about time to adjourn some one
suggested that they reconsider the cow
question, but an anti-cow man arose
equal to the emergency by moving to
adjourn. As a motion to adjourn is
always in order it was entertained and
the councilmen all voted ‘‘aye,” thus
getting themselves gracefully out of the
trap that was laid for them.
TarowN FroM A HorsE AND KILL-
ED.—On Monday evening about 10
o'clock Newton Gunsallus, of near
Eagleville, was returning from the
home of David Robb, on Marsh Creek,
where he had been threshing all day.
He was accompanied on the way home
by another young man whose name we
have been unable to learn. They were
| riding horseback, the animal on which
Gunsallus rode, being very vicious,
‘When within a mile of home they stop-
ped to talk with some girls, but shortly
continued their journey. They had
gone but a short distance when the
young ladies noticed them both fall
from the horses. When picked up both
were unconscious or seemingly so.
Young Gunsallus was taken home and
the doctor called. He worked with him
all night, but the unfortunate young
fellow pever regained - consciousness.
Death came at noon on Tuerday.
Before he died it was learned that his
jaw bone had been broken in several
places and it is supposed that the horse
kicking him in the jaw caused a frac-
ture of the base of the skull. :
Deceased was twenty years old and
unmarried.

gallant firemen and they turned out

A Goop SvuccesTiON.—The Fayette
county grand jury, says the Greensburg
Tribune, makes a suggestion that local
institutes be held throughout the county
to discuss the subject of road improve-
ment. This is a suggestion that might
be accepted with profit elsewhere than
in Fayette county. Two years will
elapse before the state legislature again
convenes, and in that time a wonderful
amount of work could be done. If the
friends of road improvement would go
to work systematically to interest and
educate the masses on the road question,
these two years intervening between
now and the assembling of the legicla-
ture should enable them to create such
a sentiment in favor of good roads that
would demand action by that body.

——Says a shrewd writer in an ex-

when some misguided advertisers cut
down their space because business is
dull. If advertisements are business
bringers and they must be: or merchants
would not pay for them, &e dull season
is a good time to double the space. It
would be a poor locomotive engineer

a double dose of urging.
