Plans for the left wing and front of the hospital have all been prepared and so confident were the members of the board of macagers that they would get practically she fall appro- priation passed hy the Legislature for the vew bailding that they counted on stars- ing work on the same in the near futnre. The action of Governor Stuart in ontting the appropriation in half has of course, put a damper on the ardor of the men in charge a+ well as delayed the starting of work on the remainder of the new building until some arrangement oan be made to raise the money to complete it, as the $6,000 appro- priated, or rather allowed by the Governor, will not more than haif pay for the build- ing is is proposed to erect. And it is to be regretted that such is the case, as the pres- ent hospital is all the time crowded, with oftime not the room to meet the demands made upon it. Of course at this time no plan bas been formulated for raising the extra five or six thousand dollars needed to pat up the will be taken and an effort in that direo- tion made in the near future. Some peo- ple are advocating the donation of a sum of money sufficient for the purpose by some pablic spirited citizen wealthy enongh to do so, which would be all right, but jadging from the past methinks the milleninm will have to come, the sick or injured die and their hones disintegrate into dust before the Bellefonter will be fonud who is public-spirited enough, or has the welfare of his fellowmen and wom- en enongh at heart to step to the front and | give even one-half of the money needed for the new bhailding les alone give the instita- tion a liberal endowment, Bellefoaters aud their money are not so easily parted — meet in ball of Logan Grange Tharsdiay, May 27th, two sessions 9:30 a. m. and 1 | p. m.

R.

Aside from negotiating a loan the only | plansible way of raising the woney, as it | seems to us, wounld be hy popalar subsorip- | tion. Churches are bailt in this way, aod! | edifices whioh cost thousands of dollars. Of | | coarse the hospital cannot be compared to | the church becanse the latter has an entire | cougregation hack of it to give the nucleus | of the fund, but where is there a more ha. manitarian work, for the welfare and good of every man, woman and child in the county, than at the Bellefonte hospital. For this reason people all over the county should, and we believe do, feel a personal interest in its welfare. And we believe if the matter was brought to the attention of the public in the right way, a good fand sould be raised by popular subscription, and the new building completed this sum. mer. This suggestion is made because we feel more than a friendly interest in the work and soccess of the Bellefonte hospital and it is one the board of mavagers might do well to consider. AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT.— Rohert Cole, the architect, met with a bad accident to his Stanley steamer on Sanday afternoon and was very lucky to escape without any injury to himeeil.

Then he started to tarn; backing some to do 80. Without stopping his engine he under- took to hold the car by applying the brakes. Instead of putting his foot on the brake pzdal he in mistake pushed the reverse pedal and the machine shot back down the hill so guickly he had no time to stop it until it rap into the deep ditch alongside of the park io the rear of the court house and the rear springs were jammed into the sar pave- ment stopping the machine. In its quick trip backwards the machine missed one of the shade trees by the narrow margio of less than an inoh. Mr. Cole was not hort in the least but the machine was pretty badly damaged, one rear wheel and the rear springs being broken, the axles badly sprung aod all the machinery badly jarred out of tane.
