SPECIAL MEETING OF COUNCIL —A |
special meeting of the Bellefonte borough |
council was held on Monday evening for |
the purpose of taking action on contrac-
tor R. B. Taylor's request for his month-
ly payment on the state road contract,
the same having been held over at the
last regular meeting of council because
his statement of work done had not been
certified to by the borough engineer. Mr.
Taylor claimed a balance due him on the
curb and gutter of $972, which he stated
was payable six months ago when the
' work was completed. On the brick pav-
ing there is still due Mr. Taylor $557, but
this amount practically represents the!

. completed, and on this Mr. Taylor asked |
nothing. On the new asphalt work done
i this summer he asked the customary
‘ninety per cent. on estimate furnished,
which was in the neighborhood of $960.
The estimate furnished council was
merely a statement of so many yards of |
work done and was not certified by an
, inspector or the borough engineer and
| Mr. Keller stated that the bill was not in
. proper shape for payment. Mr. Taylor
was quite insistent and there was a hot
“interchange of words which president
' Harper had difficulty in quelling, notwith-
standing the fact that he but recently re-
turned from Columbus, Ohio, where he
took a few lessons in statesmanship. On
| his suggestion, however, council finally
i voted to pay Mr. Taylor one thousand
| dollars on account, but insisted that by
| next Monday evening, the regular meet-
ing of council, he present a detailed
. statement of all work done, with pay-
| ments received, so that a proper adjust-
| ment of the accounts could be made.

the weight fell with a thud which shook
the court house. The weight was sus-
pended in a box bedded to a depth of two
damage, aside from the stopping of the
town clock and all the clocks in the court
house. The cable was of twisted steel
wire, three-eighths of an inch thick, and
its breaking is a mystery. An examina-
tion of it shows the strands on one side
to be broken and flattened as if the cable
was pulled along some sharp-cornered in-
strument, while the other side of itis as
good as ever. A new cable had to
be secured from the factory in Boston
before the clock could be repaired.
-—Thesevere storms of the past week
have not only done considerable damage
but upset more than one man’s temper
and among the latter is Jim Curtin. Every
time it rains hard the water from Pike
alley floods the pavement in front of
the Eagle block and washes a lot of mud
down on Curtin's pavement. In addition
it washed away a good part of the nice
soil he had filled in between the pave-
ment and street curb for sodding. Mr.
Curtin had quite a job on Sunday clean-
ing up after Saturday's storm and on
Monday he had the work to do all over
again. Hardly had he gotten the job done
until along came Monday's storm with
the same result and then he got mad and
declared the mud might stay there for six
months before he would move it, if the
council didn’t do something to keep the
water from wasting down over the pave-
| according to a statement made by him |
| Monday night. These amounts total over |
| $12,000 and the road is not yet complet-
led. And this is exclusive of the State's
| portion of payment, as Mr. Taylor has
received his money regularly from the
State for its per cent. of the work done. |
Of course a portion of the above amount |
will revert to the borough from the prop-
erty owners when they pay their share
for the curb and gutter, brick paving and |
| the extra width of the road through the |
town, but at that it is not only due bor- |
| ough council, but it is due the property |
owners and every tax payer in the bor- |

| scarlet fever scare is now over and the |
Bellefonte High school commencement |
will be held next week, though it will not |
| be the important function it ordinarily is i
because of the three weeks postpone- |
ment. The baccalaureate sermon will be
preached on Sunday evening by Dr. Am-
brose M. Schmidt, in the Reformed
| church. The Junior oratorical contest
| has been postponed until after the open-
, ing of the next term of school in Septem-
ber and the commencement exercises
proper will be held next Tuesday even-
ing. The program of class orations will
be very brief, confined principally to the
salutatory, class history, class prophecy
and valedictory, after which the com-
mencement address will be delivered by
Dr. Samuel E. Weber, dean of the school
of Liberal Arts, State College. Diplomas
will be conferred on the twenty-three
graduates of the class by the president
of the school board, Dr. Melvin J. Locke,
and as many of the regular prizes as
have been taken will be awarded. The
exercises will be held in the High school
building and the public is cordially invit-
| ed to attend.

may be placed—retain a loyalty for their
former home that is equalled by few of the

proximity to a water pipe, and the belief
is that a short circuit was caused which
started the fire.
Not only the Sunday school room but
the second floor will have to be done en-

colored with smoke and on some of the
pews the paint was blistered by the heat.
Fortunately ample insurance is carried
on the building to cover the loss.

——There are few public speakers as
honest in their admissions as Chang Yin

State College on Wednesday wrote: “On
account of not being familiar with the
English language I am compelled to have
my son read my address, consequently I
do not know what I am now saying.”
—William P. Humes recently im-

people of any other section and surpassed
by none. In nearly ever important city
in the country, in quite a number of the
States of the union, and in scores and
scores of counties of the different Com-
monwealths, you will find associations
of former Centre county citizens who an-
nually meet to renew acquaintanceship,
talk over old home matters and testify to
their interest in and admiration for any-
thing or anybody that has a touch of Cen-
tre county about them. Just as indicated
by the following that we find in a num-
meal. An explosion followed and both
Norton and Miss Davis were enveloped
in flames and horribly burned before
they were rescued. Both were hurriedly
removed to the Cottage state hospital,
Philipsburg, where they died the same
evening.
Mrs. Norton was in another part of
the house when the explosion occurred
and managed to escape but the flames
spread through the frame structure so
quickly that she was unable to rescue
her baby daughter and it was burned to
tucky which he now has on his farm east
of town. One of them is said to have a
mark less than 2.20 and all of them are
good specimens of horseflesh. So far as
known Mr. Humes has not divulged his
object in importing this stock to Centre
county, aside from his love for good
horses.
