The perplexing situation is the result
of a little thing, in a way, but which
promises to grow as it becomes older and
which may terminate in an expensive tary committee of council, of which Mr.
litigation before the matter is settled.
On the evening of May first John Sebring
Jr., through councilman Paul Sheffer, pre-
ferred a request for permission to erect a
sign for his new garage at the intersec- Musser, of the Water committee, stated

uniform curb and gutter was constructed.
When the matter of the curb and gutter
was first broached to the residents of that
street they objected on the grounds that
it would make the street too narrow.
However, when they saw the finished ap-
pearance of Allegheny street they wanted
the curb and gutter but it was then too
late. Now many of the residents ot the
street are putting in their own curb and
gutter but they are not at all uniform and
the street will never have the finished
appearance of Allegheny street.
While that portion of the state road
built this summer has every indication of
being a good roadway, the portion on
north Water street and west Linn street
built last fall has gone to the bad and
will have to be rebuilt. This is because
of the quality of asphalt used. At the
time the state engineer condemned the
material but it was used, notwithstand-
ing. The result is now very apparent

——Up to this time no trace of the men

——The class of 1910 Bellefonte High
school, held a meeting at Harry Hart-
ranft’s home on Monday evening and de-

both parties raised a kick, not a kick in |
the literal sense but a gentle, determined
remonstrance against the sign remaining
there. Mr. Sebring having received per-
mission from council to erect the sign,
naturally declares it will stay there. The
consequence was that on Monday even-
ing Dr. Seibert and Mr. Munson with at-
torneys John Blanchard and W. Harrison
Walker, appeared before council to make
a formal protest and demand the removal
of the sign; or at least that council re-
scind its action of the meeting of May
1st granting Mr. Sebring permission to
erect the sign. Mr. Blanchard was the
spokesman, and while he was very pro-
nounced in declaring that they intended
to proceed in an orderly and law-abiding
manner, he was also emphatic in saying
that the sign would have to come down,
and if council did not want to be a sec-
ondary party in the litigation they had
better rescind their former actions and
thus wash their skirts of the whole affair:
When the matter was brought up for
discussion in council various reasons were
advanced for having granted Mr. Sebring
permission to erect the sign. All of them,
however, were merely impressions; such
as the impression that the consent of the
property owners had been secured; the
impression that the sign was to be placed
on the telephone pole back in the alley,
etc. etc. but the only thing on the
minutes was that permission was granted
and the sign to be placed under the di-
rection of the borough engineer. Finally
Mr. Musser made a motion that council
rescind its action of May 1st and the mo-
tion was seconded by Mr. Judge. Mr
Sheffer then wanted to know how council
was going to reverse itself, especially after
Mr. Sebring had done only what council
gave him permission to do. Mr. Keller
thought council ought to have a little
more law on the subject and at the sug-
gestion of the president Mr. Musser with-
drew his motion and the matter was held
over until next meeting in order to get
the opinion and advice of the borough so-
licitor as to the (w)hole business.
Henry S. Linn appeared before council
to present a check in payment for a pave-
ment put down in front of a property
owned by the Linn estate on west Curtin
street; and he further stated that he
would be glad to have’ the borough or
private parties use the ground as 2 dump
for clean ashes, stoneor clay, as he want-
ed the iot filled up.
William H. Walker appeared to make
complaint about the failure of certain
property owners to put down pavements
on south Thomas street. The Street com-
mittee was instructed to look after the
matter at once.
Water tax collector W. A. Ishler was
present to know what to do in the mat-
ter of the collection of the taxes on the
various properties owned by Joseph Bros.
& Co. While the taxes this year are a
few cents less than last year the firm has
refused payment on the grounds that the
properties have been assessed for lawn
sprinklers and none are being used. Mr.
Ishler was instructed to ascertain if
sprinklers were being used and if so to
insist on the payment of the taxes. If
sprinklers are not being used of course
the charge for same to be deducted from
the bill.
A communication was received from
the Nittany Iron company stating that
there had been a break in the water pipe
running to their offices in consequence of
which their water rent for the second
quarter was considerably larger than it
should be and they asked that it be re-
duced to correspond with that of previous
quarter, which was done.
A communication was received from
the Misses Hoy regarding the damage to
their property, the Beaver and Hoy row,
owing to the raising of the grade in the
building of the state road. The matter
was referred to the Street committee.

——Hon. John Noll is contemplating
making some substantial repairs at his
steam laundry on south Water street.
When the laundry was built there it was
above the level of the street and the line
shaft was hung under the floor. Since
that time, however, the street has been
filled up so that the laundry stands in a
hole, as it were, and the result is it is al- |
ways wet and muddy underneath. Mr.
Noll proposes changing his line shaft
from underneath to overhead, putting a
concrete foundation under his heavy ma-
chinery and then fill in the street in front |
of the building. This will not only be a
decided improvement in appearance but
will put all his machinery within easy
reach when any repairs are necessary.
