FIRE AT JERSEY SHORE.—On Wednesday fire destroyed two business blocks and the First National bank at Jersey Shore, resulting in the loss of three lives and the destruction of upwards of one hundred thousand dollars worth of property. The fire started about 2 o'clock in the morning on the second floor of the Crowe & Sten- ner building. The first floor was occupied by the above firm as a hardware store while the second and third floors were fitted up as apartments. Mr. and Mrs. Crowe occupied the third floor apartments and had as their guests Mrs. Crowe's aged parents, Mr. and Mrs. Dravenstadt, of Williamsport. They were both caught in the flames and Mrs. Dravenstadt burn- ed to death while Mr. Dravenstadt jump- ed from a third story window and was crushed to death on the pavement below. William O'Connor, the two year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard O'Connor, was also burned in the Ferrar brick block. The origin of the fire is a mystery. ———r A —— BELLEFONTE FIREPLUGS ALL RIGHT.— The disastrous fires in Tyrone and Jersey Shore this week and the destruction of considerable property owing to the fact that water plugs were frozen up and the firemen were unable to render efficient service, aroused Bellefonte officials to the necessity of an inspection of fireplugs in Bellefonte to find out if they are in good working condition. Water superintendent Samuel Rine began the work of inspect. tion on Wednesday and tested twenty- eight out of the total of seventy-two plugs in the town. Every one of them was found open and free of ice and in as good working order as if it were mid-summer. Mr. Rine expressed himself as con- fident that every fireplug in town will be found in good working condition. —— AA] nc —. ——The Bellefonte Academy will have | a relay team at the University of Pennsyl- | vania’s annual relay races which will be | held on Franklin field, Philadelphia, April 30th.

Mair who, with his brother came here several months ago and leased the Garman opera house, threw up his contract last Saturday and left for his home in Johnstown. After he took charge of the opera house he started a moving picture and vaudeville show but it did not pay expenses. Then he cut out the vau- deville and tried moving pictures alone but the patronage was not sufficient to pay for the films and he had to give it up. Failing in these there was not enough in the theatrical business alone to justify him in staying here so he packed his trunk and left on Saturday. Thus the Garmans are again in full charge of the opera house, though they will rent it if they can find some one willing to take it. ——From Saturday night until Tues- day morning was about the coldest spell we have had this winter; or at least it felt so owing to the high wind prevailing all day Sunday and Sunday night. From twelve degrees above zero Sunday morn- ing the thermometer dropped gradually during the day until eight o'clock in the evening when it was five degrees below. The coldest point registered by the ther- mometer at Mr. Kurtz's weather bureau station was four degrees below zero, but at other places in town seven degrees be- low zero was the extreme point reached. Though it moderated a little on Monday it was not until Tuesday that there was enough rise in the temperature to make wou ay it appreciable to the average a gua] ON THE Sick LisT.—While our people have long boasted of the general health- are inclined to think that, with conditions as they show up just at this time we don't have much the better of localities usually not so fortunate in the matter of health as our town is. At present an unusual amount of sickness prevailsand one meets but few persons who are not complaining of some ache or pain or “under the weath- - er” feeling that gives them reason to think there is something wrong with them. Much of the indisposition is of the kind | that people are able to carry about and tell you of, but at the same time we have | a full share of those who are too ill to do | anything but suffer and take medicine. A’ partial list of those ill enough to be con- | fined to bed and under the care of a physician are as follows: Miss Mary Bartlett. Mrs. Fred Kurtz, Mrs. Thomas Shaughensey, Mrs. Burns Crider and | daughter Emily, Albert Knisely son of Mr. Jacob | William Steele Jr.. a little child of | Maggie Valentine's suffering with pneumonia. | Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Eberhart, one of the children in the Pruner Orphanage, Mrs. Claude Herr, Miss Sue Donachy, Mrs. W. R. Gainsfort, Mrs. George Garbrick, Mrs. Charles Rine, Mrs. Samuel Rine, H. A. Stevens, a student at the Bellefonte Acad: emy, Mrs. George Hazel, Mrs. John Davis, Abner Rider, Miss Maude Sharp, David Kochler, William Kelly, of Coleville, and Miss Sarah Owens. Doubtless there are many others who the WATCHMAN representative has failed to locate, but from the number given, outside folks can understand that if we do pride ourselves in having the healthiest town in the State, there are times when this “may be otherwise.” .

Since then a number of individuals have had bad falls and one at least sustained a severely sprained arm. There is an ordinance requiring either owners or occupants of properties to clean the pavements within forty-eight hours after a snow fall, and in their fail- ure to do so it shall be the duty of the street commissioner to clean the same and charge the cost to the property own- er. But the ordinance seems to be as much of a dead letter so far as the bor- ough authorities are concerned as it is with property owners; and possibly will remain so until some one is injured who will bring a suit for damages and then they will waken up. school will open in the Presbyterian chapel this (Friday) evening and continue every Friday evening for a period of twelve weeks. Prof. Philip H. Meyer, of Centre Hall, has been engaged as instructor and, as the course has been arranged by sev- eral members of the church, the instruc- tion will be free to all who will avail themselves of this opportunity to study music. It is an admitted fact that there is a woeful lack of training and practice among the younger generations in Belle- fonte, principally because there is nobody in Bellefonte who makes a specialty of teaching vocal music, and this is a chance that should not be allowed to go unheed- ed. All young people, and older ones, desiring to attend can do so without any expense to themselves. —Ladies’ $3.50 comfort shoes reduced to $2.48 at Yeager’s ——_— mma.

FREEMAN—LONGACRE.—The friends of Lawrence A. Freeman and Miss Myrtle Longacre were somewhat surprised last Saturday when they announced the fact of their marriage on January 25th. The ceremony was performed by justice of the peace J. M.
