DisCRIMINATION CHARGED
Rate
AGaAINsT Local RAILROAD COMPANY.—
Tue Central Railroad Company of Penn.
sylvania, operating between here and Mill
Hall, bas been made defendant in a rate
discrimination cbarge lodged with the
Penn<ylvania State railroad commission at
Harrisburg. The case is of general inter-
est hecause of the fact that is is the first
outright charge of rate discrimination to
be on file with the commission. The
charges are preferred by the Nittany Lime
and Stone company, of Bellefonte. In its
complaint it avers and declares that it ex-
pects to be able to prove that the general
freight agent of the Central nilroad is a
stockholder and general mavager of the
Bellefonte Lime company, a competitor of
the complainant, having quarries at the
same place, near Salvna, Clinton county.
Both companies ship their products over
the Central railroad, and the complainant
asserts thas the Bellefonte Lime ocumpany,
ite competitor, enjoys cheaper [freight rates
than the Nittany company. The rates
charged the complainant are also the sub-
ject of a complaint, being held excessive.
The Bellefonte company, says the com-
plainant, settles for its freight obarges at
the general office of the railroad, their
freight bills heing marked *S8. G. 0.”
which the ocomplainans declares means
“‘wettle at the geveral office.’”” The gen-
eral freight agent of the company admitted,
according to the complainant, that it was
not known what freight be paid upon his
shipments from the Bellefonte company’s
quarries over his lines.
The rate complained of is twenty-five
ceuts per tou for ballast shipped fiom Sa-
lona to Mill Hall, a distance of two miles,
a rate that the company holds as subjeot to
revooation at any time. The rate for the
same service, says the complainant, was
sixteen cents per ton in 1908. The
present rate is declared to be practically
prohibitive and far in excess of rates oharg-
ed by other railroads. Moreover, as the
rate may be changed at any time, the com-
pany is liable to be put to a loss by
changes in fulfilling its contract. A lower
rate, to remain uoohavged for a year, is
asked.
The information vpon which the above
article was written was gleaned from a
Harrisburg paper and is practically correct.
Officials bere state that the matter consists
merely of a complaint being made hy the
Nittany Lime and Stone company to the
railroad commission and ths matter has
been referred to the first mentioned, for
aoswer, Uatil the answer is filed and
passed upon by the commission no farther
action can be taken; and the answer may
also be a satisfactory explanation and pus
an end to the controversy.

PROPERTY CHANGES HANDS ~The lat-
ter part of last week Mrs. Matilda Dale
and her son, Dr. David Dale, purchased
the large brick dwelling house on the
ner of High aud Spring streets, now ocou-
pied by Emil Joseph snd family, from the
heirs of the late Thomas R. Reynolds. The
price paid for the property was nine thous.
and seven bondred and filty dollars.
While the Dales would have liked to bave
bad possession on April first they will be
unable to do so because the Joseph's have
been uvable to find a suitable place to
wove but will give up the parlor in the
house, the corner room next Petriken hall,
which Dr. Dale will bave fiitted up and
use as an office the coming year. In
fact the room has already been vacated
and will be in shape for Dr. Dale's oo-
copancy April first. In this connection
it might be said that the partnership now
existing hetween Drs. Hayes aud Dale will
be dissolved on April first and each man
will practice independents of the other. Dr.
Hayes will retain the office now oocupied
by the firm.

a day of prayer and thanksgiving with a
double meaning for the Methodist breth-
ren of Bellefonte becanse at thas time they
witnessed the burning of the mortgage as
evidence that the debt which has bung over
the church since it was remodeled in 1900
has all been canceled and once again their
property is free and unencumbered. The
formal exercises connected with the destruc-
tion of the mortgage took place in the
evening. Brie! congratulatory addresses
were made by Rev. Stein, Rev. Shuey
H. Musser and James K. Barnhart after
which the legal document was held by Mr.
Barobait sod Dr. Feidt while Mary Stein,
the little daughter of the pastor, applied
the match and the congregation watched
the paper go ®p in smoke.
Apother reason that made Sanday a mo-
mentous day was becanse it marked the
olose of Rev. Stein's third year as pastor of
the church and at the morning services he
very modestly told of the work that had
state | been accomblished during bis pastorate,
uot the least of which was the cancelling of
the debs on the church. In addition to do-
ing this and raising the money for all nec:
essary church expenses about two hundred
dollars more was raised for benevolent pur-
poses this year than last. Rev. Stein left
on Tuesday for Harrisburg to attend the
aunoal conference and while it is uncer.
taio what Bishop Hamilton will do when
it comes to making up the appointments is
is the hope of the Methodists here that he
will favorably consider their request and
retarn the reverend gentleman to the Belle-
fonte church another year.
Reports from the conference, by the way,
state that Rev. Stein is being talked of as a
likely candidate for presiding elder and
also for the superintendency of the Meth-
odist book rooms, in Harrisburg. The lat-
ter appointment is for six years, and while
either of the above would be a better ap-
pointment, from a financial standpoint,
than the pastorate of the Bellefonte oburch,
it is still hoped } be will be sent back bere.

WHAT WiLL THE Ice MeN Do?—The
cold weather season is now so far advanced
that there is bardly a possibility of a cold
snap sufficient to form ice thick enough to
out, and as noue of the ice men in Belle-
fonte have near enough housed to
to do them through the summer, and
very lew individuals have any as all
stored, the query naturally arises what
will Bellefonte do for ice® The question is
one that merits more thao a passing consid-
eration. We might be able to do without
ice cream and bigh-balls, buat there are
scores of uses in which ioe is an absolate
neoessity, and there is no way of getting
along without it.
The people of Look Haven, or rather the
ice men of that town, have solved the
problem by going together in the erection
of an artificial ice making plant of sufficient
capacity to suppiy all the city’s needs,
which is abouts twenty tons every swenty-
foar boars. This they considered cheaper
than to import ice from northern New
York or New Eagland, and then they will
always have it and be able to make their
own ice, fresh and pure. State College
people put up their own plant swo years
agoand have nos been troubled about se-
curing natural ioe since.
But it is still up to Bellefonte to solve
the ioe question and more than oue house
keeper in the town is wondering whas the
resalt will be, and whether she will have
ice as usnal, or whether she will have none
at all. Of course everybody looks to she
ice men to find a solution to the problem,
and it is possible they will do so when the
time comes, but in the meantime the short
ice crop here now is causing no little anx-
iety.

James R. Huaaes WILL REMAIN AT
ACADEMY. — Patrons of the Bellefonte
Academy as well as the many [friends of
James R. Hoghes will be glad to know
that satisfactory arrangements have been
made during the past week by the hoard of
trustees whereby that gentleman has been
induced to withdraw his resigoation as
head master of that popular institution and
will continue in charge indefinitely. Every-
body in Bellefonte as well as every stn-
dent at the Academy knows the good work
that has been done there by both Mr
Hughes and his father, Rev. James P.
Hughes, and there is hardly any doubt that
if they bad been allowed to sever their oon-
nection with the Academy it would have
meant a retrograde movement instead of
an advance. Though no public announce.
ment has been made as to the arrangement
on which Mr Hughes was persuaded tore:
main at the head of the Academy there is
no doubt bat that it will mean better
things for him as well as the institution ;
and for this reason the board of trustees as
well as the patrons of the Academy are to
be congratalated.
