The Result in Bellefonte Borough.
There were also a number of surprises
in the results on the borough ticket in
this place. One of these was the defeat |
of D. F. Fortney Esq., for school director
for the six year term by Dr. M. J. Locke,
the latter having a majority of 99. A.C.
Mingle and Charles F. Cook were elect:
ed for the four year term and Mrs.
Brouse and Mrs. Gilmour won out in|
their fight for the two year term. Thus |
the school board in the future will be |
composed of three men and two women.
Another surprise was the defeat of over- |
seer of the poor P. H. Gherrity by just
one vote, Harry Badger and Alexander
Morrison, both Republicans, being elect- |
ed. C. K. Hicklen, for auditor, had the |
biggest majority on the borough ticket,
having just 207 votes more than W.
Miles Walker. The complete returns for |
the borough and wards are as follows:

ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS.
WORK Now IN PROGRESS ON HIGH
| STREET BRIDGE.—Last Friday evening a
| force of bridge builders from the York
‘Bridge company arrived in Bellefonte
and on Monday morning began work on
tearing away the old structure for replac-
| ing the antique High street bridge with a
new and modern one. The bridge will
"be built with steel girders across the
creek and with a concrete and brick
roadway. There will be no trusses to
impede travel, the only thing above
ground being the guard rails at each
side. Tk» bridge has been in a torn up
condition since early last spring and the
fact that a new one will be built before
' winter sets in is a cause for thankful-
ness not only by every resident and busi-
! ness man in this section, but everybody
who travels the streets of Bellefonte, as
ninety-nine out of every one hundred
| cross the bridge one or more times dur-
ing the day.
Now that the bridge is being built bor-
, ougt council will also fix up the street
between the High street and the race
portion of town and when everything is
' completed it will not only be more dura-
ble but will make the section of town
traveled by every person who comes to
Bellefonte by train, more like what it
ghould have been this long time.

issued a proclamation prohibiting all raf-
fling or hustling matches for turkeys,
chickens or fowls of any kind, as it is
against the law, and gave instructions to
the police to arrest any and all offenders.
So far as known no attempt has been
made by anyone to pull off anything of
the kind within the borough limits this
season. But on Monday night a raffling
match for turkeys was held just outside
the borough limits in Spring township,
and if the township authorities are going
to allow such infraction of the law the
prohibition in Bellefonte will not accom-
plish the good it is intended to do. Wheth-
er the Spring township authorities were
aware of Monday night'sraffling match is
not known, but if they were they are
liable to answer to the court for neglect
of duty. In cases where the township
authorities fail to act the sheriff has full
, power to go anywhere and it is his duty
to see that the law in this respect is ob-
served. It might here be added for the
benefit of all parties inclined to hold raf-
fling matches that a number of dealers
and business men in Bellefonte are de-
termined to break up the practice and will
inform on anyone participating in same;
so if you wish to avoid the possibility of
arrest keep out of the business.
