On Sunday evening between seven | and eight o'clock the Potter township school building at Pine Stump, about a mile and a half west of town, was de- stroyed by fire, the work undoubtedly of an incendiary. The school is taught by Thomas Moore. The building was of frame construction and had no fire from Fri- day evening when Tom closed for the week. The fire was discovered by | Geo. W. Glace, who lives within a | short distance. It was burning slow-| ly in the vestibule inside the outer door, and had not yet communicated to the main building. Mr. Glace made an effort to extinguish the flames | but with little assistance at hand the | flames quickly spread. An eflort was then made to save the contents of the building, Several desks, and all the books were removed, but the balance went to feed the flames. There was an insurance on the building and its con- tents of $500, in the Centre Hall com- | | pany, which fully covers the loss, The | | building was undoubtedly set on fire | { by some miscreant who wanted to see | a blaze. The kindling ready for Mon- | | day’s opening was placed in the vesti- | | bule and a match put to it. Suspicion { strongly points to some and the perpe- | trator may yet be landed.

The constables of the state are wail- ing with much concern the decision of the Supreme Court in a case which has just been argued in Pittsburg. It involves the question of whether a constable is entitled to 50 cents for each witness subpoenaed, regardless of how wiany names are on a printed form, or whether he is only entitled to 50 cents for serving the entire paper, The case originated in Lancaster county, where Commissioners claimed that Constable Willium Price was rot entitled to 50 cents for each name, and | the Common Pleas Court sustained the | Commissioners, An appeal to the Superior Court re- sulted in a reversal opinion rendered, that a Constable should have 50 cents for each witness subpoenaed, and now the Supreme Court is to decide finally on the important matter. It would be rather interesting if the perior. etme Hunting Notes Dr. Riter bagged a fine wild turkey about two miles below town on Tues- | day.
