——At the last meeting of council the
borough solicitor was instructed to notify
the York Bridge company to remove the
old plank and new steel framework at
the High street bridge, which so ob-
structs the street at that point as to in-
terfere very much with the regular traffic.
The WATCHMAN is not informed as to
whether the notice was sent or not, but
one thing is certain, that no effort has so
far been made to remove the obstruction.
Considering the fact that there is no pos-
sibility of the erection of a new bridge
until late this fall, and perhaps next
spring, it is an imposition on the public
to permit High street being blockaded
the way it now is at the bridge and some
one who has the authority to do so
should insist on its being cleared as much
- as possible. Goodness knows, that a half
bridge over Spring creek is bad enough
without blockading the thoroughfare of
traffic to half a street.

SMiTH.—Harry A. Smith died at the
home of his brother Herbert, at North-
wood, near Tyrone, on Sunday evening,
after almost a year’s illness with tuber-
culosis, During the past few years he
made his home at Braddock where he|
was employed as a stone mason, but four
months ago his health became so bad
that he went to the home of his
brother in the hope that the change
would prove beneficial, but instead he
grew steadily worse until death ended
his sufferings. He was born in west Fer-
guson township, this county, on Decem-
ber 31st, 1868, hence was in his forty-
third year. He is survived by his wife
and one child at Braddock; three broth-
ers, George and Herbert, of Northwood,
and Walter, of Grazierville and one sis-
ter, Mrs. Effie Cox, of West Virginia.
Funeral services were held at the home
of his brother on Monday evening by
Rev. T. P. Omer, of the United Brethren
church, and Tuesday morning the re-
mains were taken to Marengo, this coun-
ty, for interment in the Ross church
cemetery.

Thad Hamilton on Wednesday announced
the death, in DesMoines, Iowa, on Tues-
day,of Thaddeus Schnell,a native of Belle-
fonte. The cause of his death was not
stated. He was a son of Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Schnell and was born in this place
about seventy-six years ago. When a
young man he learned telegraphy and
was the first operator in Bellefonte when
the office was established here in the
early fifties, in Green's drug store, then
located where Crider’s Exchange is now:
He left Bellefonte about 1856 and located
in New York State and when the Civil
war broke out enlisted as a telegraph
operator. After the war he went west
and for the past twenty years or more
had been located in DesMoines. He
never married and his only survivors are
his two brothers, James, of Junction City,
Kansas, and Joseph, of

ERTLEY.—Enos
best known residents of Marion town-
ship, died at her home at Jacksonville,
last Saturday, at the advanced age of
eighty-one years. Up until several weeks
ago he was in fair health but he lately
suffered a general breaking down of the
system, which caused his death. He
was a farmer by occupation but of late
years had lived a retired life. Since ear-
ly manhood he had been a member of
the Reformed church and lived a consist-
ent christian life. His wife died a num-
ber of years ago but surviving him are
three children, namely: George A. and
Mrs. Harry Strunk, of Jacksonville, and
William F., of State College. Rev. B.F.
Faust officiated at the funeral which was
held at two o'clock on Tuesday after-
noon, burial being made in the Reform-

of | the Mont Alto sanitorium on Wednesday
evening of last week, where she had been
the past few months undergoing treat-
ment for tuberculosis. She was nineteen
years old and was the daughter of Mrs.
Sarah Paul, of this place. The remains
were taken to Lock Haven where burial
was made last Saturday afternoon.
GOVIER — ATHERTON. —A very quiet
wedding was celebrated at the parsonage
of St. John's Episcopal church in this
place, between seven and eight o'clock
last Friday evening, when Charles Emory
Govier and Miss Helen Hoyt Atherton,
both of State College, were united in
marriage by Rev. John Hewitt. Only
two people were present as witnesses to
the ceremony.
Mr. Govier and Miss Atherton conduct-
ed their marriage as secretly as possible
to prevent the affair from becoming pub-
lic until commencement week at the Col-
lege-when formal announcements will te
sent out. They drove to Bellefonte last
Friday evening and after securing the
necessary license solicited the co-opera-
"tion of a friend to go with them to the
parsonage and with the minister's wife
witness the marriage. Immediately after
the ceremony the couple returned to the
College and since have parried all ques-
tions relating to their marriage.
The bride is a daughter of the late Dr.
George W. Atherton, for many years the
esteemed president of The Pennsylvania
State College. She is highly educated
and accomplished and for a number of
years has held the position of instructor
of music at the college. Mr. Govier is
also a member of the college faculty, be-
ing an instructor in telephone engineer-
ing. They will spend a good part of their
summer vacation on a wedding trip.
BITNER—MURRAY.—A wedding that is
exciting the interest of the people of Cen-
tre Hall and Pennsvalley was that on Sun-
day afternoon of Prof. Henry F. Bitner
and Miss Agnes M. Murray, both of
Centre Hall. In order to keep the affair
as much of a secret as possible they
drove to the home of the bridegroom's
brother-in-law,Jaacob Moyer, at Penn Hall,
Sunday afternoon, where the marriage
ceremony was performed by Rev. D. W.
Donat, of the Reformed church.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. J. D.
Murray, of Centre Hall, and for a num-
ber of years was associated with her
father in conducting a drug store in that
place. Two years or more ago Mr. Bit-
ner resigned his position as professor of
botany at Millersville and going to Cen-
tre Hall, purchased the late home of Hon.
Frederick Kurtz and also the half inter-
est of Mr. Murray in the drugstore. From
the wedding on Sunday it is very evident
that the time of the partners in the drug
business was not entirely taken up in
selling pills and mixing prescriptions, and
in their future life may they know no ills
but those of happiness and contentment.
YOUNG—GATES.—On Wednesday after-
noon Charles M. Young and Miss Wilda
E. Gates, both of Altoona, were married
at the parsonage of the Lutheran church
in Hollidaysburg by the pastor, Rev.
Thomas Reisch. The bride formerly lived
at Loveville and has many friends through-
out Centre county. The bridegroom is a
machinist in the employ of the Pennsyl
vania railroad company, Altoona, where
they will make their home.
WAY—GRASSMIRE.—John Isaac Way, of
Stormstown, and Miss Anna M. Grass-
mire, were married at the parsonage of
the United Brethren church on Monday,
by the pastor, Rev. C. W. Winey. After
a brief wedding trip they will take up
their residence in Stormstown.

the High school alumni association on
Monday evening it was finally decided to
hold the annual reception and dance to
the High school graduating class next
Tuesday evening and the committee who
will have charge of the arrangements for
the same will have to hustle to make it a
success. The fact that the Academy

result in a greater interest and larger at-
tendance at the High school dance. Both
the reception and the dance will be held
in the armory.

Liberty of equitable safe investment in
public service was refused by the Penn-
sylvania Senate by a vote of 29 to 17
without even naming what are the objec-
tionable clauses in public utilities bill pre-
ago, stated, “The scope and real intent of
the bill is found in Section 1 of Article
111, which reads as follows :
“It shall be lawful for every public
service company to demand, collect and
receive fair, just and reasonable prices,
rates, fares, tolls, charges or other com-
pensation for each and every public serv-
ice rendered, or to be rendered, by it to
any person or corporation or other pub-
lic service company with whom it inter-
changes facilities and services, namely:
the compensation necessary to enable
such public service company to pay its
taxes, property fixed charges and current
cost of operation and maintenance or de-
preciation, necessary reserve funds and
to afford, if its property will earn it, a
reasonable return or profit not less than
the legal rate of interest; provided al-
ways, however, that such compensation
be just and reasonable to the public as
well as to the company, and that the du-
ties of said public service company must
be performed.”
Expensive procrastination to defer up-
holding the constitution and protecting
life and property, within its scope as per
article above named. How retrogressive
to the honor of the State and humiliating
to those endeavoring to obtain co-opera-
tive railroad building by Nation, State
and Civic righteousness, of pro rato to
contribute towards the cost to secure
railways over or under mountains adja-
cent to the source of material, that are
in the make-up of a thrifty nation by
most speedy distribution of commodities
between the producer and consumer of
American markets that will best protect
the people's money coin.
We now have dishonorable Pennsylva-
nia statutes that build up railroad mo-
nopoly by old charters of immunity from
State edicts of passenger rate two cent
per mile, they can charge a “live and let
live” price on straight tickets to all, and
should have the power of doing the same
on freight rates and let competition do
the work of the open markets to build
railroads over or under mountains and
utilize the mountain streams to save coal
and labor, and obtain public patronage
to adjust rates open to all by internal
free trade, of equity.
