THE NEW OENTRAL RAILROAD OF
PENNSYLVANIA.— Within three weeks
the citizens of Bellefonte and those of
the Nittany valley will see the regular
opening of the new Central Railroad of
Peunsylvania and the connection of our
town with all points in the country by
a system of rail-roads separate and dis-
tinet from the Pennsylvania company.
The road was begun last May and in
the surprisingly short intervention of
seven months has been completed, so
that to day only two hundred feet of
track remains to be laid ere trains can
run over the twenty seven miles of road
between this place and Mill Hall, where
connections will be made with the
Beech Creek and Reading systems. The
unfinished portion of the track is that
which crosses the bridge at Clintondale,
and the approaches thereto. That bridge
is well under way and would have been
completed now had the stone been ready
for the masons. As it is the middle
pier is up and the abutments are about
finished.
The road has been constructed on an
economic, though not a miserly basis,
for after the first month’s operation it is
expected that the passenger schedule
over the line will make at least thirty
miles an hour, with all stops, thus show-
ing that there is an excellent road bed,
good iron and proper ballast. All bridges
over 30 ft in length are of iron and some
shorter ones too. Well equipped com -
fortable stations are under way at Zion,
Hublersburg, Nittany, Huston, Lamar,
Clintondale and Salona. These will be
provided with freight and passenger
rooms and instead of telegraph will be
connected with the general offices here
by a metallic circuit telephone service.
The telephone line is already built and,
aside from the instruments, is owned ex-
clusively by the railroad company. The
wire that completes the circuit on the
telephone will also be used as a tele-
graph line between the genersl offices
here, in Mill Hall, Jersey Shore and
Philadelphia. So much for the build-
ing and equipment of the road. Now
for the rolling stock and its operation.
Itis well known to our readers that
J. W. Gephart Esq., has been chosen
the General Superintendent and that
Frank Warfield is the General Freight
Agent of the new road. These gentle-
men have opened offices in the Bush
Arcade where the general management
will be done until the terminal station
on Lamb street is built. An interview
with the former yesterday morning dis-
closed the following facts as to the pos-
sible running of trains. Mark you it
is only the possible running, as nothing
definite is known yet.
Two freight trains will handle the
freight over the line. One arriving
here about noon each day with freight
that had been shipped from the Willow
street station, in Philadelphia, the even-
ing previous at four o’clock. The other
will get here in the evening, and both
will handle all way freight, thus giving
the people of Nittany Valley the ad-
vantage of a freight service almost equal
to the express.
The express will be operated by the
American company as it is on the
Beech Creek lines and has already a
schedule of rates with the United States
Co., for handling points not touched by
iteelf. The fact is that the United
States on the Reading system and the
American on the New York Central R.
R. lines work jointly, the one helping
the other. Thus it will be seen that we
will have the benefit of competition in
express rates to all points. Express
offices will be opened at every point
along the line at which there is a sta-
tion. It was thought that Mr. War-
field would close the contract with the
American Co. yesterday as he wis in
New York for that purpose. In such
an event the route manager of that com-
proy will come on here at once, locate
an office and appoint a manager ard an
assistant, both of whom Mr. Gephart
thinks will be local men. The efficien-
cy of the express service will depend
solely upon the running of the passen-
ger trains and as the new company
proposes that its bid for trafic will
catch the traveling public there is every
reason that the express will do the
same.
- There is a possibility that four trains
daily will run over the line as far as
Mill Hall, and a certainty that there will
be enough to make connections at that
place with Beech Creek trains both east
and west. The Williamsport Sun pub-
lished a statement, about which Mr.
Gephart would not talk, to the effect
that two of the Central trains will run
clear through to Williamsport. The one,
leaving here about six in the morning,
will connect at Williamsport with a fast
train that will arrive in Philadelphia at
8 p. m.; the other leaving here attwo
o’clock in the afternoon will connect 1n
Williamspert with the celebrated Read-
ing “Cannon Ball” express that arrives
in Philadelphia at ten o'clock the same
evening. The other two trains will run
only as far as Mill Hall. For this ser-
vice two well equipped passenger trains
will be needed. Kuogines from the N.
Y. C., shop at Schenectady, N. Y., will
be here in a fow days and just to give
an idea of how complete the system is
with which our new road gives us con-
nection, we will state that they will run
were built to this town
company’s tracks. The passenger coaches
later, after having come the whole way
over other tracks than the Pennsy’s
and over a route shorter in distance than
from here to Philadelphia.
Cars and engines are of the most ap-
proved pattern and were purchased with
a view to the comfort of travelers, as
well as to speedy and safe transit. Every
"thing will be first class and every detail
of comfortable railroading will be ob-
served. Other than the two trains
mentioned above there will be a train
arrive in this place shortly after 9
o’clock in the morning with passengers
and express that had left Philadelphia
the evening previous at 11:30. Then
there will be a train leave here in the
evening in time to connect at Mill Hall
with a through sleeper train to Phila-
delphia. This train will be run to make
close connections so that there will be no
waiting at Mill Hall. Sleeping car
service for persons along this line will
begin and end at Mill Hall, us will the
the parlor and buffet cars also.
This about covers the operation of the
road as it will probably be done, but of
course there may be changes which can
not be foreseen as yet Our readers have
read already the descriptions of the va-
rious stations along the line but there is
one point that needs special mention at
this time and it is the station called
Huston, which is located at the junction
of the pikes down at the gap that leads
througn to Brush and Penns valleys.
There a large station will be built as it
is supposed that most of the traffic from
the lower end of those valleys will be
handled from that point as it is nearer
than Coburn, their present shipping
point, has the advantage of better wagon
roads for hauling and then is only six-
teen miles from Bellefonte, while Co-
burn is over thirty.
The railroad terminates at the foot of
Lamb street in this place, where all the
offices will be located as soon as prac-
ticable. Masons finished the founda-
tions for the freight depot yesterday and
the wood work will be hurried right
through. It will stand on a lot about
100 ft south of the street line and on
the west side of Water street and will
be used as a passenger and freight sta-
tion combined until spring when the
two story brick passenger station will be
built on the corner of Water and Lamb
streets, directly opposite the electric light
plant. Whenitis completed the offices
will all be moved down there and con-
centrated, then the room which will be
alloted to the passenger traffic in the
freight station will be used as offices for
the freight department.
—— Beginning with last Sunday the
Pennsylvania railroad company dis-
continued running the Columbian and
Keystone express trains on the main
line. Want of traffic was the cause.
~—The violin concert which Prof.
J. Jay Watson will give in the chapel
of the Pennsylvania State College this,
Friday, evening will be a treat for those
who will have the opportunity of hear-
ing him. Prof. Watson is reputed the
world over as being one of its most
noted violinists and has only been secur-
ed by the athletic association for a bene-
fit through the intervention of friends
whom he was visiting in Reedsville.
——The only way Bellefonte will
ever get a line of good attractions at the
opera house is by giving the meritorious
shows full houses and leaving the bad
ones to play to empty seats. Tonight's
entertainment, “the Dazzler,” is one
that should have a good house. It is
really a fine company with a play that
has made the world laugh. It will give
the best of satisfaction and ranks with
the best road companies.

committee recently appointed by the Y.
M. C. A. of this place to secure the
names of a sufficient number of young

secured more than fifty names. Bath
rooms will be put in at once, with both
hot and cold water attachments. A jani-
tor will be employed to keep the place
thoroughly cleaned as well as to let out
clean towels and soap to users of the

to the association.

A PAsseENGER TRAIN Struck HER.
— Last Saturday afternoon the passen-

over the B. N. & L. railroad, struck

attendant of the Methodist Gilmour surprised the gathering with a
miraculous. As it was she had her left
leg broken, below the knee, her right
ankle badly broken, an arm brok-
en, a wrist dislocated and her
scalp torn from the forehead to the base
of the brain, with serious internal in-
juries also.
The details of the frightful accident
are about as follows : Maggie Miller
lives with her parents cn a small farm
on top of the hill near the toll gate, on
the Lewistown pike. She, with her
gisters Katy and Emma, was on her
way to this place to attend class in cate-
chism in the Reformed church. Her
sisters were quite a distance behind her
and when coming to the railroad she
walked right down the track. Being
very hard of hearing she did not take
the precaution to be looking for trains,
but quite to the contrary she was walk-
ing along with her head down counting
theties. When she hud reached a
point just opposite the Valentine Iron
Co’s furnace the train struck her. The
engineer did not see her atall and the
fireman, on whose side of the track she
was walking, never thought but that
she was going to step off the track until
it was too late.
The train was stopped a8 quickly as
possible and the unfortunate girl “was
picked up and taken aboard. Some one
of the passengers identified her and she
was taken to the toll house where Dr.
Seibert was summoned and dressed her
injuries. Later she was taken to her
home where she is now getting along as
nicely as possible, though she had such
a narrow escape from death.
LATER.—On Monday evening Miss
Miller became delirious and in her fren-
zy tore the bandages off her limbs and
opened all the wounds in her body.
She was so exhausted that the doctors,
who had entertained hopes of her re-
covery up to that time, gave up all hope
of preserving her life and she died yes-
terday morning.
A Goop LiFe PEACEFULLY ENDED.
—The death of John Rankin, which
occurred Tuesday morning at his moth-
er’s home, on Spring and Howard streets,
removed a most excellent and upright
young man.
He was only 31 years old'and was the
youngest son of the late Joseph ‘Alex-
ander Rankin, A few years ago ;hig
health, which was never strong or ro-
bust, compelled him to resign his posi-
tion in the First National bank and
seek the more salubrious climate of
Southern California, but the benefit he
derived from an extended stay in Passa-
dena was only temporary as his health
bas been failing rapidly ever since he
returned home in the Spring. Young
as he was he looked on death} as one of
the things inevitable and accepted his
illness with a cheerfulness and fortitude
seldom equaled.
His mother, two sisters, Sarah and
Carrie, and his brother William B.,
will miss him greatly and his quiet
good life could well be taken as a mo-
del by the many more ambitious and
conspicuous.
The flowers at the funeral yesterday
afternoon, which was held from the
Presbyterian church, were beautiful and
were mostly from the Christian En-
deavor Society of which he was a mem-
ber.
ImrorTANT Business CHANGE. —The
law firm of Beaver, Gephart & Dale,
which has existed for eight years or
more, has, we learn, been dissolved, in
consequence of the retirement of Mr.
Gephart, who 1s compelled to give his
entire time to the business of the Val-
entine Iron Company, of which he is
President, and of the Central Railroad
Company of Pennsylvania, of which he
is the General Superintendent.
A new firm consisting of Gen. Beaver
and John M. Dale, has been constituted
to be known as ‘Beaver & Dale”. We
understand that Gen. Beaver will give
his personal attention to practice in the
future, attending all the courts and be-
ing found at the offices of the firm in
the early and latter parts of each week.
It will probably be necessary for him to
give two or three days in the middle of
the week 10 other business engagements.
——There was a pleasant gathering
last evening at the home of Charles E.
Gilmour on Cameron avenue. As Mr.
Gilmour is about to leave Tyrone to
live in Bellefonte his class in the Pres-
byterian Sunday school met at his resi-
dence to spend an evening with him
socially before their intimate relations
should be dissolved. A notable feature
of the occasion was the presentation to
Mr. Gilmour ofa fine Webster's Inter-
national Dictionary with stand, by his
class. B. F. Leff made the presentation

Tae LirTLe Bonanza Fanning
MILL AND GRAIN SEPARATOR TO BE
MApE HERE.—For some time several
gentlemen have been exhibiting an im-
proved fanning mill and grain separator
in a room in the Brockerhoff House
block. The mill is known as the ‘Lit-
tle Bonanza,” and from all indications
it is destined to prove a bonanza to both
manufacturer and purchaser.
In weight it is only eighty pounds,
and it cleans wheat, oats, rye, barley,
buckwheat, peas, beans and all kinds of
grass seed without the use of a wind
blast and at the rate of forty bushels
per hour. Then too the mill complete
will cost but $25. So many of them
have been sold here already that a com-
pany has been formed for their manu-
facture. It is made up of the following
gentlemen :
President, R. C. Leathers ; vice preai-
dent, Grant Hoover; secretary and
solicitor, H. H. Harshberger ; treasurer,
G. H. Lyman; gencral manager, W.
Miles Walker; board of directors: B.
K. Henderson, R. OC. Hoover, Jere
Ryan, Emmett E. Brannon.
They intend renting the old skating
rink, on Water street, and just as soon
as the appliances can be gotten ready
they will start the manufacture of the
mills.

His First CAR RIDE WHEN SEVEN-
TY-FIVE YEARS OLD.—On Wednesday
morning a trio of citizens of Madison-
burg got of the Lewisburg train in this
place. They were the venerable
Henry Hasel, Jacob Xern and
his son Harry. The former had
been a shoemaker in Madisonburg
for years but the advance of age has
made it necessary for him to lay down
the hammer and awl for good. He is
just seventy-five years old and strange
as it may seem in all those three quar-
ters of a century he had never been on
a railroad car before Wednesday.
He expressed himself as delighted
with modern modes of travel and was
glad that he had had an opportunity of
taking a car ride before his death.
