It was their first public entertainment singe moving into their fine colonial home. | 1 : Tie Op Axp New Couscirs.—On ~~=Look at the label on your paper and | HUSTLING For A BUILDING —~In just their business for the year, members were present but Mr, Gherrity, the retiring member from the South. After the reading of the minutes final re- ports of the committees were called for but with the exception of the Finance commit- tee’s report there was little presented. It showed a balavce of $7,268 due from col- lector Taylor on his various duplicates and $425 from collector 8. D. Ray. On water rents $2,485 is yet unpaid. An order for $2,000 was directed to be drawn for the sinking fund and as there actually was $2,000 in the fund council de- cided to invest it in the boroughs 4 per cent. bonds, some of which are yet unsold. Bilis to the amount of $2,274.30 were ap- proved and then Col. Reynolds, president of the old body, made his final address to the members. It was purely of a congrat- ulatory character and voiced his cordial grat- itude for the co-operation he had received ! from the body in whatever had been under- | taken. THE NEW BODY ORGANIZES. About half an hour after president Rey- nolds had declared the old council ad- journed sine die the new oue was ready to assume the responsibilities voted upon it by the people last February. Messrs. Pot- ter, Knisely and Gherrity bad retired and to succeed them were Messrs Jenkins, Fen- lon and Wise. The new membersall stood while justice Keichline administered their oaths and follo wing them he swore burgess Walker and treasurer Meek into office. As soon as the oaths had all been taken, clerk Pontius called the new body to order and announced nominations for a presi- dent in place. J. Mitchell Canningham’s was the only name presented and he was chosen president by acclamation. For clerk there were twonominees. William Kelley and John N. Lane, the vote resulting 8 to 1 in favor of Mr. Kelley. At this juncture council adjourned until 7:30 p. m. in order to give president Cunningham opportunity to make up his committees. THE COMMITTEES NAMED. Every member was in his chair when the ‘body was called together for the evening session and when president Cunningham stated that he was ready to announce his committees for the year there was the great- est interest manifested. They are as fol- lows : * Finance — Jenkins, Reynolds, Mallory. Water—Fenlon, Whittaker, Wise. Street—Deistine, Wise, Fenlon. Fire and Police—Whittaker, Jenkins, Wise. Market— Jenkins, Destine, Kirk. Village Improvement— Reynolds, Mallory, Kirk. ; Nuisance —Kirk, Mallory, Fenlou. Preside nt Cunningham then announced a special water works improvement com- mittee as follows : Fenlon, Whittaker Wise Jenkins, Destine. The various committees retired and cau- cused for about ten minutes on the selec- tion of employees for the departments. The Street committee presented the ap- plications for street commissioner to council without a recommendation, and asked fora vote of the body. The applicants were William Dawson, John Howley, S. H. Charles, Thomas Shaughnessy and Joel Johnston. On the first ballot Reynolds, Whittaker Derstine and Jenkins voted for Shaughnesy; Fenlon and Kirk voted for Dawson: Mal- lory for Johnson; Cunningham and Wise for Howley. Charles had no votes, so he and Johnson were dropped for the second ballot. Then Fenlon swung over to Shaugh- nesy giving him five votes and a major- ity. For Supt. of the water works the com- mittee recommended the retention of Sam- uel Rine and council endorsed the recom- mendation. For policemen the committee recom- meuded the retention of the old officers, for the present at least, and council concur- red. ~ Col. D. F. Fortney was re-elected solici- tor and J. H. Wetzel borough engineer. The new business taken np was the hear- ing of the report of burgess Blanchard; a very full and complete resume of the acts of his three years of office and it showed the collection of $638.83 in fines, etc. Upon motion of Col. Reynolds council tendered the retiring burgess a vote of thanks for the energy, fidelity and good judgment with which he had exercised the functions of his office. Solicitor Fortney and burgess Walker each made addresses to council, after which the body adjourned. —eee— PO BEAVER FALLS TO GET OUR SCALE WORKS. — On Monday evening Supt. Motchman, of the Standard scale works located in this place, received a message from the Pittsburg office to the effect that Beaver Falls has been selected as the site for the new factory which the company will begin to erect at once. The message also carried instructions to notify the men of the proposed change. It is not a surprise. The people of this place have known of the contemplated change ever since last fall. The only ques- tion has been as to when it would be made. While we are all sorry enough to lose the Standard works and the men who may go with them to Beaver Falls there is some consolation in knowing that Bellefonte was quite a dot on the map before the Standard works were ever heard of and is likely to remain such after they are gone. ee yr ai ——Supervisor Edward McCormick, of the B.

Fry, of Shingletown, down to the city with him. She will enter the Presbyterian hospital to undergo a second operation. et geil ——The home of W. H. Flory at Pleas- ant Gap was the scene of a very auspicious wedding on Saturday evening. About twenty-five guests had assembled to witness the cerentony that united their step-daugh- ter, Miss Jeanette Flory, in marriage to Harry Trvin,of this place. Rev. B. A. Sal- ter of the Methodist church officiated. The Flory home was artistically decorated for the event and immediately following the marriage an informal reception was held, after which a bountiful wedding supper was served. The bride is said to be a very accomplished young woman, aud in every way qualified to make the young groom a helpful mate. He is a son of Washingtcn Irvin, of this place, and for some time has been connected with his father in the gro- cery business on Water street. ieee ——Col. and Mrs. Wilbur F. Reeder en- tertained the Centre County Bar Associa- tion and the court house officials at dinner at their home, corner of Allegheny and Curtin streets on Wednesday evening. Covers were laid for forty-three and the large parlors which had been temporarily converted into a dining hall were exquisite- ly decorated in green and white. Eleven courses were served before the coffee and cigars brought the party of dis- tinguished gentlemen to the impromptu toasts, which always prove a delightful feature of such affairs. They might well have been called ‘‘roasts’’ in this case for the men were all so intimately acquainted with each other in a professional way that good-natured 1aillery reigned about the board so supremely that there was a per- feet community of spirit and full measure of enjoyment forall. It was one of the most delightful of the many large functions of this sort undertaken by Col. and Mrs. Reeder. a eet ———The Union painters, paper hangers and decorators of Bellefonte banqueted at Hazel’s restaurant on Bishop street Wed- nesday evening in royal style. Twenty of the Union men participated and for their guests they had Messrs. 8. H. Williams, Robert Montgomery, E. J. Eckenroth, Chas. L. Gates, Francis Speer, Roger T. Bayard and Geo. R. Meek. The banquet was served at 9 o'clock and for two hours the Kughts of the brush and paste bucket dallied with the delectable things set be- fore them by caterer Hazel’s deft waitress- es. There was so much to eat that a man of any other vocation would have been stuffed to a sit-still, but when the time for toasting came and Robert Irvin bad most gracefully acccorded the honor of the mas- ter’s chair to S. H. Williams, the veteran employer, there was a lot of oratory that was smoother than the oil in any of the paint’ shops in town and more variagated than all the colors of the rain-bow. John MecSuley said he could expand the walls of the cafe with his eloquence, but as George Weaver hadn’t quite finished his last course he took no chances on being cut out and pulled the Dougherty of the South ward back into his chair. Then Frank Deitrich, the president of the Union, got up and said be had never made a speech before in his life and everybody believed him before he got through for he spcuted off all the speeches he ought to have been making at intervals during the past forty years. Francie Speer arrived too late to get any- thing to eat #0 he used up about a half an hour in oratorical pyrotechnics telling the fellows there would be no hard feelings. Others spoke along lines recounting the good the Union has accomplished in Belle- fonte and there was the best of good feeling among all until the hour of adjournment arrived. RURAL DELIVERY FOR BUFFALO RUN. —Last week route agent Shcenberger of the U. 8. postoffice department was in town looking over the proposed route for rural free delivery through Buffalo Run valley. In company with Edward Wasson, of Briarly, who has been iargely instrumental in accomplishing the work, he drove over the roads that will be covered and decided to report in favor of establishing tlie service. Mr. Sheenberger said that it will proba- ly be May 1st before it is in operation. The route starts from Bellefonte, goes through Coleville and oat along the mountain road to Mal. Roan’s, opposite Fillmore, thence between the mountains past Hoover’s, Reese’s and Wise’s to the road leading down to Green’s. Thence back to Belle- fonte on the main valley road. He is going over the proposed routes for Pleasant Gap and Stormstown this week. If the former one is established it will be ar- ranged so as to serve the people along what is known as the ‘‘back road’’ up Buffalo Run; the one running past Marshall’s, Sei- berts,Clarks and the other people who would not be reached by the route that will serve the mountain and main valley roads. year the WATCHMAN is too cheap avd un- | Because you | don’t think yon have a right to ask for a | The scheme was to raiee $17,000. An option was held on the Irvin property on High street, now occupied by the Misses Pearl and Blanchard and Blanchard’s law offices, and as it expired on Saturday there had to be some hustling. In addition, the pledge card which contributors were asked to sign was not made binding until the total subscriptions had reached $12,000. These were high marks to make for an As- sociation that has been struggling along for vears with scarcely enough to keep its head above water. But the fact that the pres- ent quarters must be vacated on April 1st, and there is no other available location in sight gave impetus to the movement and then the willing hearts of the good people of Bellefonte came to the rescue. While there is no plan as yet for the expenditure of the money on the new home it is safe to say that those who will have it in charge will take every precaution to expend it judiciously. It is likely that the Irvin house will be changed very little. In its present condition it would meet al- most every requirement of a small town Association. The only radical change that will be made is the erection of a fine gym- pasium on the rear of the lot. It will be modern in every appliance, with bowling alleys, swimming pool and many other at- tractive features for young men. Here will be the great feature of the Association work. With something that will actually attract young men to a place where they will be surrounded by a wholesome, pure atmosphere there is no reckoning the good that may be done. As for the expenses. [If is the concensus of opinion of those working for the new home for the Association that every cent of indebtedness should be wiped out before it is pushed to completion. Building, lot, improvements and old debts should all be paid up so that the Association can start off with a clean slate. This can all be done with $17,000 and the running expenses for two years paid for in addition. When completed the current expenses of the new place should he no more and probably less than those of the old. There will be no rent to pay, taxes will be exonerated, and the income from the rented buildings will go a long way toward defraying such fixed expenses as light, heat and insurance. emer A en Sie NoTES FROM THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE COLLEGE.—The men appointed from the Junior class to compete during commence: ment week for the Junior oratorical prize are as follows: C.S. Bomberger, Annville; T. J. Bryson, W. Leisenring; J. D. Elder, Elder’s Ridge; R. H. Lyons, Union City; P. J. Morrissey, Franklin; and M. J. Rentschler, Ceatreport. The alternates are: H.C. George, Warren; N. G. Miller, Chambersburg; and Bert Henderson, Sharon. The men selected are those hav- ing the highest grades in essays and i1he- toricals for the first two and one-half years of their college course. From the fifty per cent of the graduating class having the highest average grades in all subjects at the beginning of the second semester, Senior year, the five having the highest grades in essays and rhetoricals are assigned commencement parts by the faculty. Those appointed this year are: A. R. Dennington, Deckard; J. H. Snyder, Broughton; D. B. Taholski, Erie; E. N. Zern, Lehighton; and F. H. Taylor, South Auburn. The Seniors have elected F. H. Taylor, valedictorian. In former years nearly all the men of the creamery course, who were at all com- petent, have had good paying positions en- gaged before the course was finished. This year requests for men are already coming in and it is probable that more positions will be offered than there are men to fill them. On account of a typhoid fever epidemic at Cornell many of the students have left thay institution. Several who went to Cornell from Pennsylvania have entered classes here. The Davis Brothers, of 907 Walnut street, Philadelphia, have been engaged as the architects of the new library building to be erected at the State College through the generosity of Andrew Carnegie. These gentlemen were among the number of architects submitting competitive plans. and the choice of their design insures a beautiful and attractive building. err Ql pr Two LIVERY CHANGES.—The first of April will find liveryman James Toner lo- cated at the old Bush house stables.
