He was taken to the Bellefonte CounciL.—Seven members were present at the regular meeting of borough coun- cil on Monday evening and the session was quite a lengthy one. After the ap- proval of the minutes of the last meeting G. J. Patterson, son of Lee H. Patterson of Lock Haven, stated that he was pres- “ent in the interest of the Logan Electric company, an off-spring of the Scootac Power company, and asked favorable consideration of an ordinance granting the company the right of franchise with- in the borough limits. When taken up in regular order the ordinance was given a first reading. One of the provisions of the ordinance is that no poles shall be | erected on Linn, Allegheny and Bishop streets, or on any paved or macadamized thoroughtare. Wherever it is necessary to string wires onsuch streets they are to be placed in conduits at the entire ex- pense of the company. The maximum rate to be charged for a 74 ampere street light is $60 per annum, said light to burn all night. For commercial purposes the price for light is to be frm 5 to 8 cents | per kilowatt and for power purposes from 14 to 8 cents per kilowatt. The company te pay the cost of advertising the ordi nance as soon as the same has been pass- ed by council; to file a corporate accept- ance and bond for carrying out the pro- visions of the same within ninety days after the passage of the ordinance and to have everything in shape to furnish power by July 1st, 1913, or forfeit the right of franchise. After reading the ordinance it was referred to the Street committee for consideration and will be taken up at the next meeting for final action. Milton R. Johnson appeared in behalf of an unnamed philanthropist who offers to donate to the town a drinking fountain for man and beast, the same to be erected in the Diamond without any expense to the borough, provided the borough will agree to furnish the water for same and maintain it. The fountain selected by the unnamed donor is four feet seven inches in diameter, circular in shape, with a drinking trough all around it so that teams can be driven up from any direction. It is also high enough that horses can be watered without uncheck- ing the rein, and is mounted with an ornamental top. While council expressed their appreciation of the offer it was not accepted owing to the fact that some time ago General Beaver made a proposi- tion for the erection of a handsome granite fountain in the Diamond, which is still under consideration. The mat- ter, however, was referred to the Street committee for investigation and report at next meeting. A written communication was received from Homer Carr, of Milesburg, who wants to lease the Green mill property. The matter was referred to the Special committee with power to act. W. A. Ishler was the only applicant for water tax collector for 1912 and he was duly elected. The Water committee recommended that the water tax rate for the ensuing year be fixed same as last year. Dr. Brockerhoff, of the Village Improve: ment committee, reported that they had met with a delegation of the Woman's club and the latter had submitted to them four propositions: First, that the borough bear the expense of a general clean-up week, so far as hauling away the refuse is concerned. Second, that one day a week be named when the borough will remove all pavement, street and gutter sweepings after it has been swept on a pile by the property owners or occupants. Third, that there be a general Saturday night clean up through the business sec- tion of the town. Fourth, that telephone and electric light poles be taxed to help bear the expense of the above. President Keller disposed of the latter proposition first by stating that such a thing could not be done. That the only tax that could be put on such poles was enough to pay for proper police inspection and that they could not be taxed forany other revenue. Regarding the first two prop- ositions council agreed to accede to them and placed the matter in the hands of the Street committee to confer with the ladies as to the time, and with power to act. The Finance committee reported that the balance in the hands of the treasurer was $869.38.

The public is in- vited to attend. ——Claire B. Williams, who since leav- ing Bellefonte a number of years ago, has lived in Jersey City, has purchased a home in Bayonne, N. J, and with his family will move there next week. His new home will be six miles farther away from New York city, but much closer to Elizabeth, where his offices as general storekeeper of the Central Railroad of New Jersey are located. members of the Logan fire company that they be granted the privilege of enlarging the pool room in the public building by removing one partition, at their own ex- pense. They have plans for doing same and stated that it would not weaken the building. The matter was referred to the Fire and Police committee. The Finance committee asked the authorization of notes aggregating $5,000; one of $3,000 for four months from April 2nd to renew a note of $1,000 and the bal- ance for current expenses; one for $1,000 for six months from April 4th and one for $1,000 for one year from April 6th, both the latter being renewals, Through the Street committee George T. Bush made a proposition that he would bear the expense of erecting an electric light pole opposite the stairway at the Bush Arcade and one on the op- posite side of the street from the Bush house entrance if the borough would bear the expense of the light. No action was taken in the matter. Bills to the amount of $1344.53 were approved and council adjourned.

They are now on an extended wedding trip and will be at home at No. 121 Maplewood avenue, Germantown, after the 24th of May.

He wants to get his inventions patented and being without funds to do so the Potter—Hoy Hardware company have undertaken to help him out. They have placed a box on one of the show cases in their store for the purpose of receiving contributions toward a fund for the purpose of paying the patent fees on Doak’s inventions. Every cent contributed will be devoted to the purpose above and to no other use. Mr. Doak has all his life done everything he possibly could toward his own support antl he now asks his friends for help inthis undertaking. All money sent to the Potter—Hoy com- pany will be placed in the box until a sufficient sum is secured. | i | Dr. Waiter J. Kurtz, Howard; captain generai, Dr. William Frear, State College. Probably the most important event in connection with the evening's exercises was the installation of Rev. John Hewitt as Grand Prelate of the Grand Command- ery of Pennsylvania, Commander Fleming having been deputized by the Grand Lodge to perform the rites of installation. Following the exercises a banquet was served and quite a number of toasts re- sponded to. The address by Grand Prel- ate Hewitt was one of the most beauti- ful and interesting of the evening. DEATHS AND BIRTHS FOR 1911.— Through the courtesy of George W. Rumberger the WATCHMAN this week publishes the returns of deaths and births in Centre county for the year 1911. The former totals 568 and the latter 1136, and if you compare the two you will observe that the number of births is just double the number of deaths, an argument favoring the increase of the population of the county. The complete list with be given in Petrikin hall on Friday even- ing, April 19th, by High school talent. The proceeds will be for the benefit of the High school athletic association. The students who will take part in this play have been practising for some time and there is every assurance that the enter- tainment will be well worth hearing. Keep in mind the time and the place and give the High school students a boost, as it is rarely they come before the people of Bellefonte asking support of any kind. ——Particular atterition is called to the fact that the last collection of magazines and papers will be made Monday morn- ing.
