Two REPORTS FROM THE GRAND
JUurY.— When the grand jury finished
up its work at court yesterday it had
two reports - to make to the court ; one
a majority report, the other a minority
report containing the signature of fore-
man Col. Jas. F. Weaver and four or
five others. These gentlemen objected to
the recommendation authorizing the
Commissioners to make unlimited im-
provements to the old Court House in
the way of adding new rooms for jurors,
witnesses and others.. They say that
inasmuch as no limit was “fixed they
could’nt conscientiously approve of it.
This recommendation is mandatory
since it is the second one. The other
having been made last April.
——Washburn’s show, next Thurs-
day, will probably be the last one of
the season. It travels by rail and has
an excellent reputation.
——Since Clinton county, has in-
structed its delegates for C. S. McCor-
mick, Esq., for appellate court judge.
Judge Mayer's name will not be present-
ed as a candidate for that position.
——The Loganton stage tumbled

shied when the Green Bur band wagon
was met, bence the accident.
——The body of Mrs. Mathias Mayer,
who died of Brights disease, in Houtz-
dale, Friday evening the 23rd, was

——- A party of Tyrone boys, travel-
ing under the name of the “Texas
Rangers,” reached this place, on Mon-
day evening, in a hack. They were on
their way to Eagle's Mere, Lycoming
county, where they will camp for a
week before returning. They spent the
night here and continued merrily on
their journey nex! morning, notwith-
standing it was raining very hard. The
party was made up of the following
boys: Ed. Toner, Harry Gardner,
William Kephart, Bert Trout,
Charles Herlt, Robert Wilson, Charles
Cass, Jr., Samuel Ross, Guy Walker,
Tony Laird, and Harry VanScoyoc.
——Coming without the roar of trum-
pets and seeking to proclaim its merits
in as modest a manner a3 possible.
Leon W. Washburn’s great allied
shows, big three ring circus, muse-
um, menagerie and hippodrome has
completed arrangements to exhit here
Thursday, September 5, 1895. To
those acquainted with the career of Mr.
Leon W. Washburn it will be readily
seen that the present organization is by
far the most pretentious that he has
ever carried over the road. The many
pleasing acts by numbers of riders,
leapers, tumblers trialists, contortion-
ists, jugglers and acrobats, certainly
ought to convince the most skeptical
that it will be worth anyone’s time and
money to vizit his circus. The menag-
eric1s well filled with a collection of
elephants, camels, water-buffalos, rare
birds, venomous reptiles, lions, tigers,
tapirs, hyenas, leopards and a monster
collection of the monkey tribe. The
hippodrome is most excitiug and the
many races, trials of strength between
man and beast are ceriainly well worth
consideration of the auditor.
TRAMPED TO DraTH BY HIs
HorsEs.—A singularly sad accident oc-
curred within a few steps of the rail-
road station at Zion, on Monday even-
ing, about six o’clock, whereby Isaiah
Struble, one of the best known and
highly respected farmers in Nittany
valley lost his life.
The story of his death is about as fol-
lows: His son Howard P., had been
plowing with whatis called a “Gang”
plow, in a field between the house and
the town of Zion. Quitting time came
and Howard drove into the barn where
he was busy unhitching the horses un-
til two of them frightened and started
to run, the other two being detached
from the plow were still hitched at the
heads. It required four horses abreast
to pull a “Gang” plow. The team ran
wildly toward the yard of the farm barn
which anyone familiar with that locali-
ty will recall as a large red structure
nearest the C. R. R. of Pa., depot.
Near the gate to the barn old Mr. Stru-
ble was standing talking to Wilson
Cole. The latter saw the runaways
coming and jumped out of the road. By
so doing he missed seeing in exactly
what way Mr. Struble met his death.
It is not known whether he undertook
to stop the horses or whether they ran
over him before he could get away. At
all events when picked up he was still
conscious and asked his brother Joel,
who lives on the adjoining farm and
hurried over as soon as he heard of it,
to turn him onto his “other side.” Dr.
Fisher was hurriedly summoned, but
before he arrived the unfortunate man
was dead.
An examination of his wounds seems
to indicate that he was not run over by
the plow, but simply trampled by the
horses. His right breast was crushed
in and there were a number of wounds
on his head, hone of which, however,
were serious epough to have caused
death. It was the crushed breast that
proved fatal. After passing over him
the horses ran madly around the straw
stack several times then stopped. Mean-
while Howard and Wilson Cole had
hurried to the scene of the sad ending of
their father’s and employer’s life.
Mr. Struble leaves a widow with
three children. They are Jacob, in
the employ of the Union Switch and
Signal Co. and who had just left home
after a short visit; Howard P. and
Mary both at home. Mrs. Struble bad
just returned from Atlantic City the
Saturday before the accident and as she
was away for her health the shock has
affected her very seriously.
, Deceased was 63 yearsold and a mem-
ber of the Reformed church. Funeral
services will be held to-day and inter-
ment will be made at Zion this morn-
ing.
A STRICKEN VILLAGE.—The diseased
condition in which our littie suburban
village of Coleville finds herself to-day
is exciting the deepest interest on the
part of many of our citizens, but as yet
no inclination to aid has materialized.
For many months Coleville has been
stricken with the epidemic, of typhoid
fever. Desultory efforts have been made
to discover eits cause, but nothing has
been done to avert its dreadful ravage.
Many deaths have already occurred and
there are now twelve cases of the fever
in the village. The population is small
and made up mostly of working people,
who are dependent on their daily labor
for existence. When any of them are
stricken they become practically help-
less. With theirincome cut off they have
hardly means to procure necessities
much less those nourishing and tempt-
ing morsels tbat should be the diet in
every sick room. In such straits the
idea of eradicating the source of the
disease has never been undertaken.
Why should Bellefonte not do it ?
We are enormously well off, compar-
ed to that sad community ; our mer-
chants and trades-men enjoy all of
their trade ; they are part of us, then let
us waken up to a sense of duty and pro-
tect them. Bellefonte should be asham-
ed of herself that she has not acted long
ere this. Had it been a famine in the
West, carloads of food, clothing and
money would have attested the earnest
sympathy of Bellefonters. Had it been
a Jacksonville, stricken with the yellow
fever, Bellefonte’s heart would have gone
out in the form of substantial money
contributions. Had it been a deluged
| Johnstown, her sons would have ex-
posed themselves to every hardship and
her wealthy citizens contributed liber-
ally, but because it is Coleville—a poor,
little, helpless village almost on our
threshold, Bellefonte looks on the sad-
ness there, but dees nothing.
Let us hope that our council will
take immediate action in the matter.
There can be no doubt that the water is
the cause of the trouble, so let thera be a
sufficient sum appropriated to the Board
of Health to thoroughly investigate the
town, disinfect it and arrange for its
better sanitation. .
It won't cost much and think of the
sorrow it might end.
A FEsTIvAL,—the benfits to be de-
voted to the church, will be held at
Marsh Creek Summit church, on Satur-
day, September 7th. The public is
cordially invited to be present.

—— James Hatch, a resident of Phil-
night and discovered one of the arc
lights en the street not burning. He
had often seen the trimmer make the
light go on by shaking the rope that
elevates or lowers the lamp, so he tried
it. The rain that was falling had charg-
ed the iron spool around which the rope
was wound and Mr. Hatch got @ shock
that nearly killed him. He had to be
carried home, as his legs and arms were
swollen and black.
