A request was also made to change the location of a pole on the alley in the rear of the Valentine property but as council had already granted permission for the erection of a pole ata place asked by the company they decided that to make any change in the location of same the company would have to get permis- sion from the adjoining property owners, and declined to grant the concession.

The tearing down of this plant will mean the obliteration of one of the oldest furnace sites in this part of the State. The first furnace was built on the present site in 1842 by the Valentine brothers and it was operated by the same people until in the eighties when it was rebuilt into its present form and later passed into other hands. Since then it has been operated at times by several different companies, but has now been idle for about two years. The grow- ing scarcity of the famous Nittany valley ore and the high freight rates owing to the railroad facilities are among the rea- sons assigned for the proposed dismant- ling of the plant. It is with considerable regret that the people of this community will note the permanent passing out of existence of this furnace. For almost three quarters of a century it was one of the important industries of this locality, giving employ- ment directly and indirectly to many men, and putting out a grade of iron su- perior to most furnaces in the country. But of late years it has not proven a prof- itable investment to the company operat- ing it and this is the main reason for its abandonment. KEELER SENTENCED.—At Clearfield on Monday Judge Smith refused the applica- tion for a new trial for Jack Keeler, con. victed two weeks ago of murder in the first degree for the killing of Joseph Roessner, the Clearfield brewer, and im- mediately afterwards sentenced the man to be hanged. In reply to the court's in- terrogation as to whether he had any- thing to say as to why sentence should not be pronounced Keeler replied “No,” without a quiver in his voice, and heard the death sentence pronounced apparent- ly unmoved. ~—Harry Jenkins has resigned his po- sition in the First National bank of How- ard and on the first of theyear will move to Tyrone where he has been selected as cashier of the Farmers’ and Merchants’ bank to succeeded Frank W.

Only part of the evidence was heard that ‘day when the case was continued until Tuesday of this week.

Knisely and Thomas Hazel made an appraisementof the goods and furnishings of Mr. Macker’s store, but the same has not yet been made public. ——An alarm of fire on Monday morn- ing called out the Undine fire company before the firemen could be notified that it was a false alarm. Here is the story. There was a leak in the roof of Judge Orvis’ house on east Linn street and a tinner was up there with a portable forge to repair same. Some person as yet un- known saw the flame from the workman's forge and without stopping to investigate jumped to the conclusion that the judge's house was on fire and sent in an alarm’ The sequel is that if the person who sent in the alarm is discovered he or she will get a bill from borough council for ten dollars to cover the cost of the fire com- panies turning out, in accordance with a standing rule of council. While there should be no delayin turning in an alarm when there actually is a fire, there should be no haphazard way of turning them in and calling out the fire companies when there is no need of their services. —-On Thursday evening of last week there was a head-on collision between county commissioner Daniel Grove's auto- mobile and Deemer Pierce's horse and buggy, on the streets of Lemont, which almost completely demolished the buggy, but fortunately did not result in injuries to anyone. Commissioner Grove was on his way home and Mr. Pierce was coming from his home at State College toward Bellefonte. It was after dark and Mr, Grove’s automobile lights had almost gone out, but he hoped to reach home. With only dim lights he failed to see Mr. Pierce's rig and the latter failed to see him, with the result of the collision. The horse saw the machine in time to shy to one side, but the shafts were torn from the animal and broken and the front part of the buggy smashed to pieces. Pierce was thrown out and landed on top of the automobile, but did not get even a scratch. This was the one fortunate thing about the accident. —Following the lecture Tuesday night by Dr. Belva Lockwood before the | Woman's club of State College, on "The Progress of Woman,” an informal recep- | by Mr. and Mrs. Frank D.
