AT REA
OSIRIA,
| Tag SEcoND WEEK oF CoUrT.—Jus- | The jury returned a verdict of 168.01
tice is being meted out at the Court | dollars for plaintiff.
House and for fear all the cases would
not be finished up Judge Furst has had
Judge R. W. Archibald, of Lackawan-
na county, here during the week assist-
ing in the work. While the latter hears
cases in the court room with the regu-
lar officials, the former holds a little
court in the arbitration room, where
ex-sherif D. W. Woodring acts as
clerk and Mr. Condon does the reporting.
Thos. Lucas is employed as reporter for
Judge Archibald’s court. This is
Judge Furst’s last term on the bench
and it is necessarily a serious one to
him. He quits an office the tenure of
which he has held ten yoars to go back
to the practice of his profession.
Though fraught with the usual annoy-
ances consequent upon any public office
his term has been on the whole a very
pleasant one, and though he will take
up a practice that will be far more lu-
crative than the office he vacates he can-
not leave the bench without consider-
able regret.
The grand jury finished up its work
last Friday and made the following re-
port.
To the Honorable A. O. Furst, Present Judge
and Hon. Thomas F. Riley and Hon. C. A
Faulkner, Associate Judges of the Court of
Quarter Sessions of Centre County :
"I'he Grand Inquest of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, in the county of Centre, in all
matters relating to it, very respectfully sub-
mit the following report :
We have acted on all bills of indictment of-
fered by the prosecuting attorney—thirty-five
in all—returning twenty-five true bills and ig-
noring four, six being recalled by the District
Attorney, no witnesses appearing.
Several of the cases should have been dis-
posed of by the Justice of the Peace having
jurisdiction of the cases, and we deem it not
out of place here to commend and endorse the
very emphatic and vigorous protest recently
made by the President Judge of this county
against the practice indulged in by so many
Justices of the Peace in our county in send-
ing to court cases of the most trivial char.
acter.
The Grand Jury labored under considerable
difficulty, and their labors were prolonged on
account of non attendance of witnesses when
called.
We find the jail in proper condition so far as
cleanliness is concerned, but improvement in
ventilation is needed. We recommend that
the cells be provided with new water-closets
and wash basins. The floor repaired in sev:
eral piaces—the same being rotted. We also
recommend that some place be provided for
the storage of the scaffold. We further recom-
mend the removal of the shed in the corner of
the jail yard as it may facilitate the escape of
prisoners. The roof of the jail house needs
repairs. The woodwork should be painted in-
side and out, and several of the rooms should
be papered.
We would further recommend a new roof
of modern style on the court house. We be-
lieve it would furnish three rooms, one for the
grand jury, one for the traverse jury and one
for witnesses, on the third floor. We recom -
mend the changing of the stairs leading to
the court room in such a manner as to increase
the capacity of the court room and afford more
office room on the first floor. We find that
the District Attorney's office needs a new
floor, painted and papered. We find the other
offices of the court house in fair condition.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
G. W. McGarrey, Foreman.
Right here we want to make the as-
sertion that no grand jury ever visited
the county jail and found itin better
condition, so far as cleanliness and or-
der is concerned. Sherift Condo has
been zealous in bis efforts to make every-
thing as pure and fresh as possible and
oven while the jail was crowded with so
many prisoners he enforced his rule re-
quiring regular baths, washing of cloth-
ing and scrubbing of cells, so that clean-
liness at least was the order among the
imprisoned. There is plenty of work
that should be done by the county up
there which the sheriff has every right
to demand and which the grand jury
has just recommended.
In our report of the last week’s pro-
ceeding we went to press while the jury
was out on the case of Mrs. Lydia Gib-
son vs William Garis, charged with
stealing $47.00 from her. The jury was
out a whole day and night and return-
ed a verdict of “not guilty” as the
WaATcHMAN thought it would last
week,
Commonwealth vs John H. Rishel,
charged with surety of the peace and
maintenance, continued for the purpose
of taking further testimony.
Mrs. Amanda Rote vs Thomas and
Roy Johnsen and Lemuel Poorman.
She claimed that the defendants, during
the May flood, tore down her yard fencer
at Coleville, and thereby allowed the
water to cut a deep channel through her
property, destroying her garden and
truit trees. Verdict not guilty and
county pay costs.
This ended the criminal list and civil
cases were taken up in the following
order :
A. Walter, trustee for the Millheim
Hosiery and Knitting factory vs. W.
K. Alexander. Action to recover the
balance due on & $100 subscription to
said enterprise. Defendant claimed
the subscription was to be paid in lum-
ber for the factory building, which he
was willing to supply, but they pur-
chased from other parties instead.

James McMullen. An action in non-
assumsit. Verdict for plaintiff of 32.33
dollars.

lone. Defendant plead the benefit of the
statute of limitation. Plaintiff then
plead surprise and the case was contin-
ued at the cost of defendant.
Jacob McClarren vs. Davidson &
Son, litigants from Philipsburg. An
action to test title to property of Isaac
McClarren, known as a marble yard in
Philipsburg. Verdict establishes the
title of the property held by Jacob
McClarren, the claimant, except a
horse and buggy and some other per-
sonal property.
Lucy Auman vs. Jonathan Lingle,
an action in ejectment for a tract of
land in Gregg township. Verdict for
the plaintiff, the land described in the
writ.
J. H. McCauley, Admr, vs. Henry
Brown, Admr., of John Diven de-
ceased ; verdict for plaintiff $131.
The next case taken up was that of a
girl named Chesta Miller vs. Dauiel
Garman. She sued for damages for a
broken fore arm sustained by a fall on
the pavement in front of his residence
on the corner of High and Spring
strects in this place. Plaintiff claimed
that the pavement was icy through
negligence. The case was given to the
jury on Wednesday, morning and it
stayed out until evening when it re-
turned a sealed verdict of $150 for plain-
tiff.
Mary Cook, Adm., vs. Robert Con-

Gephart to recover $6,200 and interest

Lucas and Jac. A. Folmer Adm., Pat-
rick Ward Sr. vs. J. T. Lncas—cases

With the exception of the Ward
cases the court finished up its work last
night and will adjourn to-day.
When the court called Charles Myer
and Stanley Ryan, the Milton boys
who stole Strohm’s horse, for sentence to
the reformatory, a dispute arose as to
who should receive the thirty dollars re-
ward allowed by law for the apprehen-
sion of a horse thief. Milton's chief of
police claimed it because he arrested
them, but it was giver to commissioner
James Strohm because he had hunted
them down and caused their arrest.
There are now only twelve birds in

CounciL MEgrs' AGAiN.—Cn Mon-
day night council met in its regular
gemi-monthly session to transact what-
ever business might come up for its con-
sideration.
The Street commities reported the
continuation of work on Cartin street,
the rolling of the water pipe trenches on
i High street and considerable other re-
t pair work. Under the latter head the
committee failed to report what we have
noticed that Water street, leading from
High to the spring, is being filled up
with a mixture of red clay with an oc-
casional stone instead of all stone. It
is usually muddy enough along there
and the street commissioner is doing his
best to make it worse by hauling dirt
from everywhere and dumping it along
that road.
The Water committee reported the
laying of 400 feet of new pipe on Logan
street as well as the repairing of a num-
ber of leaks. The Finance committee
reported a balance of $4,574.43 due the
treasurer and ordered the payment of
bills aggregating $1,798.66. Among the
latter was $265.56 as two week’s pay for
work on Curtin street.
Chief burgess W. E. Gray was au-
thorizad to purchase winter uniforms
for our police. Here is a matter that is
of considerable interest to the average
citizen. Why is it that some, regula-
tion uniform. with a helmet and belt, are
not provided, instead of having our of-
ficers dressed as any private citizen may.
If they are to have uniforms at all let
them look like something, then have the
police wear them with something like
the dignity of an officer.
A propos of the possibility of chang-
ing the plan of lighting our streets a
representative of the Penna. gas globe
company appeared before council with
a naptha burner, guaranteed to give a
twenty candle power light. In the event
of council going back to that method of
lighting the streets they will possibly be
furnished by the gas company.
Other matters of minor importance
were attended to and the meeting ad-
journed.
A BRILLIANT SEAsON ENDED.--The
Pennsylvania State College foot ball
eleven closed a remarkably successful
season, at Pittsburg, on Thanksgiving
day, by defeating the athletic] club’s
eleven in that city. When the season
opened it was feared that State’s team,
being unusually light, would not hold
up the brilliant record made in previous
years, but notwithstanding a rigid ad-
herence to the undergraduate rule,
which excluded such stars as Haley
and Wolfe -of last year’s team, the
eleven was victorious in all bat one of
its games, that one being a tie with
Annapolis.
"Though this season has been a won-
derfully brilliant one for State on the
foot ball field, her prospects for 95 are
even brighter. Only one man will
graduate, Harris the crack end, but
his place will find a man in
either McKibben or Curtin, both of
whom have played the position with a
surprising excellence in this their first
season. There will be more applicants for
places than ever next year and we are
confident that just as much of a surprise
awaits admirers of the blue and white
as delighted them this season.
The games State played with the
scores are as follows :
Gettysburg
Lafayette.
Annapolis
Bucknell...
Washington & Jefferson
Oberlin University ........ oe
Pittsburg Athletic Club.......

GUARD AGAINST DIPHTHERIA. —At
this season of the year when the fitful
weather makes the danger of contract-
ing colds, which lead to more serious
ailments, so great it behooves every-
one to lovk after their health.” Diph-
theria and other diseases are epidemic in
nearby towns, but as yet the health of
Bellefonte is excellent. To promote
this condition we must all guard against
infection and the board of health, at its
meeting, Monday evening, Dec. 3rd,
passed the following resolutions :
WHEREAS it has come to the knowledge of
the Board of Health of the borough of Belle-
fonte that diphtheria is now prevailing in the
villages of Pleasant Gap, Lauvertown and in
same parts of the surrounding community
therefore be it.
Resolved that all citizens ‘residing in and
about the above named places, together with
all persons who may frequent these localities,
be urged to make publicly known any such
cases and adopt all known measure to prevent
a further spread of this highly contagious and
largely fatal disease.
The following instructions were given to
the Health Officer.
The Health Officer is hereby instructed to
inspect all cess-pools and privys in the vi-
cinity of the Spring from which the borough
receives its supply of water and report the
condition of the same to the Board at its next
meeting. By order of the Board

length of life allotted to Mrs. Nancy
Potter, of Linden Hall, who died on
Tuesday. She fell on the ice last win-
ter ani iojured herself so badly that
she never walked afterwards, but oot
withstan ing this physical infirmity she
retained a remarkable mental activity
and up to the last moment of her life
her mind was as clear as a bell. Nine-
ty six years old she would have been
had she lived until yesterday and it
was a rare coincidence in a rare life
that made the anniversary of her birth
her burial day. She was born just
ove year after John Adams was in-
augurated the second president of the
United States and certainly was one of
the very oldest,if not the oldest resident
of the county. Deceased was the
mother of our friend Fergus Potter, of
Linden Hall, and was an aunt of Mrs.
Margaret Alexander of this place.
