FINANCES FOR BELLEFONTE SCHOOLS. —The statement of the Finance committee of the Bellefonte school board is of more than ordinary interest to the taxpayers this year because of the new law passed by the ast Legislature increasing the pay of all teachers ten dollars a month. The report, which was made public last week, is quite lengthly and we therefore give only the salient points in it. The estimate of ex- penses for the coming year is given as fol- lows: Teacher's salaries. o Jenchors attending ‘institute.

Two teachers who were paid $45 per month will now receive $55, or a total of $20 per month and $180 for the term, making the entire inorease $990.

Saturday afternoon while at “work at his trade as a plamber in Archibald Al- lison’s shop, iu the McClain block, he lost the sight of the other eye. At first he thonght it might be only a temporary blindness but as the minutes passed and his vision did not return the horrible truth was forced upon him that what he bad feared for some time, total blindness, had befallen him. The stricken man was taken to bis. home on Bishop street where a thorough exam- ination of his eye was made which disclos- ed the fact that the cause of his blindness was a hemorrhage, or rupture of the mi- nate blood vessels of the eye.
