The old body finish- ed up its business and adjourned, sine die, then the hold-overs and new members, who had been sworn in by Justice Harshberger, met and organized by electing Col. W. Fred Reynolds president and H. B. Pon- tius, secretary. The election of president was unanimous, but for clerk the vote was five for Pontius and four for Oscar We!zel. With this done adjournment was made un- til evening to give the new president time to make up his committees. Very little business was transacted by the old body before its adjournment. C. T. Gerberich, the president, who is retired af- ter nine years of faithful service in council, made a farewell speech to the remaining members. Bills were approved and order- ed paid as follows : Logan Fire Co., janitor’s service............... § 8,00 Street pay roll.............. 44.22 Police pay roll... 50.00 Water pay roll........... 106.75 R.

During the re- cess that followed Squire H. H. Harshbher- ger swore in the three new councilmen, George Mallory, Dr. M. A. Kirk, William Derstine, and borough auditor Isaac Under- wood, borough treasurer George R. Meek, overseer R.S. Brouse and high constable Benj. Williams into their respective offices. Nothing more was done at the organiza- tion meeting of the new body in the morn- ing than to elect the officers as above. Col. Reynolds, on assuming the president’s chair, had a few words of thanks forthe honor that bad been bestowed upon him and assured the body that he would give every duty his most careful attention. The evening session was called to order at 7:30, but owing to the non-arrival of several members it was after 8 before they got down to business. Considerable inter- est was manifested in the meeting hecause the various borough officers were to be chos- en and it could not be found out just what council would do in the selection of them. President Reynolds first announced his committees as follows, the first member named being chairman : Finance—Potter, Knisely and Gherrity. Street--Derstine, Cunningham and Pot- ter. Fie and Police—Knisely, Whittaker and Mallory. Water—Gherrity, Whittaker and Kirk. Nuisance—Cunninghanm, Derstine and Kirk. : Harkei—Potter, Knisely and Mallory. Village Improvement— Whittaker, Potter and Kirk. The committees retired to caucus on ap- pointmeuts for the several departments and after their return they were made as fol- lows : The Street committee had no recom- mendation to make, but presented all five applicants for the office of street commis- sion to council. They were James Gallagher, Joel Johnson, Thomas Shaugh- enessy, Robert Miller, and John Carney. Shaughenessy was re-elected on the first ballot. Reynolds, Derstine, Potter, Knise- ly and Whittaker voted for him. Gherrity voted for Carney, Mallory for Johnson and Cunningham and Kirk for Miller. Th: Water committee recommended Sap’t. Sam Rine and his election was made by acclamation. The Fire and Police committees recom- mended Miller and Mullen and they were accepted by council without discussion. The question of who should be solicitor was taken up next and it was some time before anyone could be placed in nomina- tion. Finally Mr. Derstine named E. R. Chambers, then Mr. Cunningham named D. F. Fortney and Mr. Knisely named Clement Dale. On the first ballot Derstine, Gherrity and Reynolds voted for Chambers; Cunningham, Whittaker, Mallory and Kirk voted for Fortney and Potter and Knisely voted for Dale. On the second ballot all voted for Fortney but Potter, who continued to vote for Dale. J. H. Wetzel was nnanimonsly chosen borough solicitor. Council then decided to notify Mis. A. M. Mott that her intention to build a livery stable for James Toner on Water street is contrary to borough ordinance. A paper was read before council as fol- lows by Mr. Gherrity : Wneress, The present condition of the bor- ough water works is such that, in time of flood, the pumps are necessarily prevented from work- ing; and Wirereas, It has been proven that, by chang- ing the position of the present machinery, and with a new water wheel and pump, also ‘a rail- road siding to the works, the present annual ex- penses may be reduced aimost one-quarter, there- fore be it. Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed who shall have power to reconstruct the borough waters works and pumping station according to the general plans submitted to the council during the last year; provided, however, the cost of such reconstruction and improvement together shall not exceed six thousand ($6,000) dollars. Upon motion of Mr. Knisely it was adopted and the president appointed the following committee to take it up : Messrs. Gherrity, Whittaker, Kirk, Knisely and Derstine. 1 Then bills as follows were ordered paid and council adjourned : ‘ 817.40 American Fire Engine Co..........cceceuneen.s J. 8.

Reeder gave a fancy work party on Tuesday afternoon in honor of her sister, Mrs. Joseph E. Borches, of Knoxville, Tenn. About thirty-five guests were present and Mrs. Mollie L. Valentine won the prize in the advertising picture contest. ——Word from Col. and Mrs. J. L. Spangler, who are now cruising in southern waters for the henefit of the former's health, is to the effect that he is very much im- proved. After touching at Havana, Cuba, they sailed on to Nassau, one of the Bahamas. The Colonel’s trouble is of a nervous nature and he writes that the sea is very quieting and restful. We hope it may continue so. —Dr. Ellis I. Kirk, brother of Dr. M. A. Kirk and who was a resident of this place nineteen or twenty years ago, died recently in Burr Oak, Iowa, of Brights dis- ease. His home was in Toledo, O., but he had not been well for some months and had gone to Burr Oak for an extended stay with his brother, Dr. Thomas Kirk, with the hope that a change would be beneficial. He is survived by his second .wife, two sons, James, of Boston, Ellis, of Reading, and four small children. : Lgl reagan] ——W. R. Shope, the local lumber job- ber, was one of the losers by the recent flood, though he did not suffer as much as would have been the case had his men not worked until Jate Thursday evening load- ing two cars of paper wood. The wood would certainly have been carried away by the water, for several piles of new ties he had beside it are scattered along the stream somewhere. We have Jieard that parties are dragging his ties off the banks and en- deavoring to conceal them. People who would take such an advantage of one who has suffered such a misfortune have very little of feeling or honor. It is worse than stealing and the fellow who grabs a penny out of the blind beggar’s hat is no worse than the one who endeavors to conceal property that another has lost in the flood. —— oe THE MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION MEETS. —The Bellefonte Ministerial Association met Monday afternoon at 2 o’clock with the following members present : Revs. Dr. Holloway, W. H. Brown, T. J. Askew, Geo. I. Brown, A. M. Schmidt, R. C. Crit- tenden and Sec. Gamel. A sermon on “Justification, its Conditions and Results’ was read by Rev. W. H. Brown. A paper, “Scriptural Doctrine in Chris- tiau Experience,’’ was read by Rev. Mr. Crittenden. After a general discussion on these sub- jegts the association adjourned to meet March 17th, 2 p. m. SECRETARY. THE CONCERT To-NIGHT.—The Haw- thorn musical club, a concert comedy com- pany of Boston, will give a novel enter- tainment in the court house this evening. This is the eighth and last of the enter- tainments of the Star course and the club was secured as one of the best attractions of the series. It is an up-to-date musical organization which introduces some first class coniedy with a program of the best and most popular instrumental and vocal music. The iustraments used by the solo- ists are the hest on the market and the cinb has scored many decided successes this season. Admission 35cts., reserved seats 15cts. extra. : Lee THE PASSION PLAY. —There will he a great treat at St. John's Catholic church on Wednesday the 12¢h when the wonderful Passion Play, as presented in the little Bavaiian village of Oberamergan, will be presented in moving pictures.” This isan event that people have traveled around the world to see and represents a work of Jife- time's devotion on the part of the popula- tion of that town. Here it will be present- ed in all its features, as true to life as photographs can make it and you will only need go to St. John’s Catholic church to see it. In addition, there will be scenes of inci- dents during the life of Joan @’Are, ali of which will combine to make a very pleas- ing and instructive entertainment. A MASONIC TEMPLE FOR BELLEEONTE. —The Masons of Bellefonte on Tuesday night took steps that will soon put them in possession of a home of their own and if plans already talked of are carried out they will have as fine a little temple for Con- stans. Commandery, the Blue Lodge and the Chapter in Bellefonte as can be found in many cities where the organizations are far stronger. At present they occupy the entire top floor of the Reynolds bank building which was arranged especially for them, but there has been such a decided immigration of pil- grims eastward lately that a large and more handsome Lome seemed easily possible. The property that has passed into the control of the Masons is the old Humes home on north Allegheny street in part of which the First National bank began busi- ness in 1860. It is a fine old pressed brick house with marble trimmings and was built at a cost of about $12,000. The Masons paid $6,000 for it and expect to spend as much more in improvements. Though nothing is definite the plans talk- ed of now comprehend the addition of a third story to the building. This will be used for meeting rooms. The second floor will be fitted up for banqueting and club rooms, the intention being to make the social feature of the organizations more prominent and attractive than they have been. The first floor will be fitted up for offices. —— ree THe CREAMERY AT CENTRE HALL BURNED.—The plant of the Howard Cream- ery Co. at Centre Hall caught fire about 10 o’clock Tuesday night and was totally destroyed. The fire originated in the east- ern end of the building and it was so far advanced before its discovery that there was little chance to save the plant. As to the cause. That is a mystery. There was no one in the building at the time and there was not even fire under the boilers, as it had been drawn so that they could be repaired. The company carried $2,500 insurance on the property, but that will hardly cover the loss, as it was the best of the many Howard plants in the county, besides having a lot of machinery belonging to the old Spring Mills plant in storage. el ASBURY RHODES HURT—Asbury Rhodes, of Tyrone, who was in the large force of men repairing track near Bellefonte on Monday morning, became wedged between a car and a tank rope that was being used to pull it with and was so badly squeezed that he was taken to his home in Tyrone on a morning train. He was hurt inwardly, hut the exact na- ture of it could not be discovered in the short examination possible to the com- pany’s physician here. > ee i HENRY DERR YERGER.—At half after two o'clock Saturday morning a long pe- riod of suffering was ended for Henry D. Yerger and he passed peacefully into the great beyond. He had been ill for nearly five years with locomotor ataxia. Deceased had been a well known and generally respected resident of this place since 1868 and up uhtil the time of bis last illness had been active as a contractor in stone and brick work. He was born at Trapped, Montgomery county, Sept. 27th, 1833. In 1862 he was married to Miss Lydia Piuk, of Bucks county, who survives bim with their five children: H. C., of Patton ; A. O., of Howard ; Elmer, of Bellefonte ; Mrs. Emma Rimart, of How- ard, and Mary, of Bellefonte. He was a good citizen, progressive and useful and was one of the charter members of the Logan Hose Co. having been, at the time of his death, the oldest member of that famous organization. Funeral services will be conducted in the Lutheran church Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock aud inter- ment will be made in the Union cemetery.
