Two girders and the walk on the south side of the bridge have been put in place and a temporary plank flooring put on so as to keep the bridge open for traffic. The north side of the structure is now being torn out. All the steel framework of the bridge will be put in place as fast will be put on before spring, unless the A communication was received from Boyd A. Musser, vice president of the York Bridge compnny, relative to chang- ing the walk on the south side of the new High street bridge to make it con- form with the street lines. To do this it will be necessary to widen the walk at the Water street side of the bridge three feet. The company offered to make the change for the sum of $150, and council authorized the change and made the borough liable for the payment of the above amount, if the county commission- ers cannot see their way clear to paying it. The question of installing a new light- ing system on the new High street bridge was taken up and council authorized the placing of four lights on the bridge and two at Race street, one at the corner of the Bush house and one at the corner of the Republican office; said lights to be similar to those now in the Diamond, and erected on a single bent arm pole. President Harper announced that there had been a vacancy on the board of man- agers of the Pruner orphanage since last March and he appointed G. Fred Musser to fill the same. Bills to the amount of $1,232.84 were approved and before adjourning president Harper made a little speech in which he thanked the members of council for their courteous treatment of him during his occupancy of the chair at the head of the table. He stated that if he at any time made a ruling or did anything that at the time did not seem quite right they were mistakes of the head and not of the heart.

The new bor- ough school board of five members, in accordance with the new school code, was duly organized on Monday night, and Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Brouse and Mrs. Caroline Gilmour, the two women chosen at the November clection, have both been given positions which will give them wide scope and ample opportunity to prove their fitness for the office. Pri- or to the organization of the new board the old board held its final meeting and transacted what little business it was necessary for them to attend to in order to turn the affairs over to the new board, after which it adjourned sine die. Three members of the old board were re-elect- ed, those retiring being M. R. Johnson, of the North ward; D. F. Fortney and * W. C. Heinle, of the South ward; W. Ho- mer Crissman, G6.

He was given a hearing before justice of the peace Henry Brown and the evidence against him was so con- clusive that he was fined five dollars and costs, or $7.25 in all. From the evidence submitted it developed that it was a cus- tom of Mr. Shope to take a trip on the train to Bellefonte or up and down the Bald Eagle valley and when the conductor asked for his ticket he would claim he had paid. In the case above cited he was “spotted,” and his trip to Bellefonte cost him enough to take him to Philadelphia. ——"The Cowboy Girl,” which is billed to appear at Garmans on Thursday cven- ing, December 15th, is an attraction that has been conceived, written and con- structed purely “for fun,” firmly believ- ing that it is “better to laugh than to cry.” “The Cowboy Girl” is a continu- ous laugh, fulfills the purpose for which it was created, viz: To present an un- usual and enjovable entertainment, inter- | spersed with the tuneful melodies and musical novelties, interpreted by clever artists with sumptuous accessories in brilliant costuming and scenic surround- ings, and to this point nothing has been left undone that liberal outlay or the knowledge, experience and ability of its proprietors can secure.

Paul Fortney presided and there was special music appropriate to the occasion. The memorial address was delivered by Rev. Father A. O'Hanlon, of State College. The speaker told of the great charitable work of the order as well as the good it does in many ways and paid a touching tribute to the spirit of loyalty which prompts them once a year to hold services in memory of their depart- ed members. The Bellefonte Lodge has now over two hundred members and the death list since its organization five years ago numbers only three, namely: Joseph Barnes and Judge John G. Love, | of Bellefonte, and Junkin David, of Snow Shoe. ——Just as a little diversion Robert F. Hunter drove up Buffalo Run valley on Thanksgiving day and went up onto the mountain in the neighborhood of Arma- gost’s farm to see if there was any game left in the woods. But before he got to the woods he espied a wild turkey feed- ing in one of the mountain fields. One shot and the bird was his. It proved to be a gobbler and weighed twenty-one pounds and it was with considerable pridc that he brought it back to Bellefonte. Bob and the whole family went into training for a fine wild turkey feast on Sunday but when the bird was served it was so tough they could hardly eat the choicest parts. On Tuesday Thomas H. Harter and Lewis Wallace went out for a little hunt and the former bagged a four- teen pound wild turkey and two pheas- ants while the latter got one pheasant and a rabbit.

McCurdy that it be adapted from the one in existence in Harrisburg was most favorably considered. The WATCHMAN has always advocated the or- ganization of a Board of Trade, but it must be composed of men who have the interest and welfare of the town at heart, and who will act promptly at all | times. The men who are now interest- ing themselves in this movement are men of that character and they should have the encouragement and support of every t business man in the community. Pastor CHASES BURGLAR.—We have always known that our good friend, Rev. Horace Lincoln Jacobs, pastor of the First Methodist church, Altoona, was a brave man and would fight the devil at every opportunity, but he had an experi- ence on Monday night that taxed his courage considerably, but he was game to the finish. It happened shortly after midnight when he was awakened by a flashlight thrown on his face. He opened his eyes and was astounded to see a short, heavy set man, masked, rifling his trousers pockets. The reverend feigned sleep until the man left the room and got out into the lighted hallway when he jumped out of bed and gave chase. The man ran down the steps and out the front door, then down Twelfth avenue, with Rev. Jacobs following, until the icy blasts of the wintry weather became too penetrat- ing through his thin nightgown, and he retraced his steps and notified the police by telephone. The robber got a small sum of money, but nothing else. GOING SOME.—A single page in a single issue of the Century magazine taken for advertising purposes costs $500; in Har- per's $400, in other prominent magazines from $350 down to $100. A yearly ad- vertisement of one column in the Chicago Tribune costs $26,000; in the New York Tribune $29,000 for the lowest rates and $85,950 for the highest rates; in the New York Herald the cost for the lowest rates is $36,203 and $349,000 for the highest priced column. Yet one can see that these papers are always full of advertis- ing matter, even at these enormous prices. And Bellefonte has business men who think they are advertisers who don’t spend $100 a year all told in making their business known. And to the detriment of the town it has others who wear the gable end out of their pants sitting on their counters who talk continually about how “poor business” is and that they never advertise because it don't pay. --Robert Kinkead, of Philipsburg. was a pleas ant caller at the WATCHMAN office on Monday Blanchard were appointed a committee | He is one of the assessors of that town and was to canvass the town and solicit members. | over making his returns. ~—Mr. and Mrs. John Van Pelt have given up " \ their home in Patton and are now in Bellefonte at their committee by the appointment of | the Harris home on Spring street; Mr. Van Pelt as many additional members as they see | having charge of John McCoy's coal office. —Mrs. C.

Grove, a mile east of Bellefonte on the Jacksonville road, was totally de- stroyed by fire Saturday morning with all its contents of stock and crops except the three horses, which were saved. The outbuildings, including the pigsty, chicken house, corn crib, etc., were also destoyed. Six cows, five hogs, and over sixty chick- ens perished in the flames. The fire broke out between five and six o'clock and when discovered had gained such headway that it was impossible to save i anything but the horses. The barn and crops were insured but not for anything like their value, so that Mr. Grove's loss is quite heavy; and coming at this time of the year will be severely felt. It is not known how the fire originated. . .
