HUGE STACK FALLS,
Many workmen Had a Narrow Escape
At Glen Iron Ntack Was balit Eighty-
Two Years ago,
Upwards of fifty men had a miracu-
lous escape at Glen Iron n few days
ago from being crushed to desth when
the immence stack of the Glen Iron
Furnace company caved in and fell to
the ground, shattering the buildings
within its scope. The stack which
was built in 1826, was forty feet high
with a twenty foot foundation, being
fourty-five feet square at the top It
was a massive plece of masonry, and
when it fell it caused a great deal of
excitement in the western part of the
county. Fortupately the men st work
in the furnace heard a squeaking noise
a short time before the wreck occurred
aod all vacated the building. Had it
not been for the warning noise up-
wards of fifty men, the entire numoer
of employees at the furnace at the
present time, would have been killed
or injured. The furnace is operated
by John L. Church, who will immedi-
ately rebuild.

Complete the Plant.
The borough council is discussing
the matter of laying new pipes to the
Laurel spring and enlarging the in-
take sufficiently to enable the pipes to
carry all the water from that spring to
the reservoir. The water plant should
be completed. For a number of y ars
the borough has been able to draw
from its water plant 8 needed supply,
but the supply was an uncertainty
during the * dry spells!’ each year.
The thought of a water famine for a
month or more each season is neither
pleasant nor helpful to the growth of
our splendid borough, and especially
80 when the borough owns overflow-
ing springs within easy access.
The people have their money in-
vested in the water plant

Miss Effle Snyder, recently elected
as an iostructor of the Grammar
grade in the Bellefonte public schools,
tendered her resignation, having ac-
cepted a better position, to teach
chemistry and physics in the Chicago
city schools.
Mrs. Thomas King Morris, Mrs,
Delphi Stover and Mrs. George Hazel,
of Bellefonte ; Mrs. Roxanna Keys,
of Milesburg, aod Mrs. Katharine
Mothersbaugh, of Boalsburg, were
operated on recently for appendicitis
at the Bellefonte Hospital.
During a thunder storm lightning
struck a big oak tree close to the danc-
ing pavilion at Hecls park and not
only literally shatlered it to splinters
but tore up the roots for a distance of
from fifteen to twenty feet from the
trunk of the tree, giving it the appear
ance of having been blown up with
dynamite,
A few students can yet be accommo
dated in the, dormitories of the Lock

The school is usually filled during the

Jochn CU. Bwabb, of Erie, sccom-
panied by his uncle, Henry Swabb, of
Centre Hall, called at the Reporter
office Friday. Mr, Swabb has charge
of the tool department of the Heisler
locomotive shops, at Erie, which con-
cern builds locomotives for the lumber
regions of the northwest. He is a son
of George SBwabb, of Linden Hall, and
it was to visit his aged father that he
came here at this time.
With a view of aftording comfort to
mothers who cannot attend the Grange
Encampment and Fair without taking
with them the baby, The Centre Re-
porter will have furnished a tent for
their use. It will be open at all hours
and devoted exclusively to mothers,
the baby and little children. Com-
fortable chairs, cradle and erib made
up with clean linsns, will be at the
mothers’ service, and everything free

Tests of the sample cement brick
made from the huge pile of furnace
slag lying along the pike this side of
Bellefonte have demonstrated that
they are superior to the ordinary brick,
If the vast quanity of slag would be
manufactured into brick it would un-
doubtedly prove profitable to the man-
ufacturer, employ labor, and give this
section an opportunity to obtain the

generally {
o
all that is needed to give the borough
a complete water system 10 supply its
wants for a number of years to come,
is to lay pipe of sufficient size to bring
sll the water from Laurel spring to
the reservoir, Without taking this
step, the building of the reservoir may
be said to be useless—the money ex-
pended without purpose. By com-
pleting the plant, the taxpayer will
bave the full benefit of the money
invested—water as pure as can flow
from mother earth for both domestic
and power purposes ; and protection
to his property in caee of fire. And
all this at a cost mueh beiow what a
private corporation would levy as »
water tax.
Complete the plant.
The Vacation Season.
Bome one, whose name is unknown
to the historian, years ago arbitrarily
fixed upon the lst of Beptember as the
end of the vacation period. By what
authority be did so no one knows, but
all do know that he succeeded in get-
ting the people to come to his frame of
mind and agree to it that such should
be the date. The fact of the matter is
that it is but rarely that business re-
ceives any great impetus with the
coming of that special date. If it did
there would be many happy people,
yet at the same time the date
does bring to them visions of a winte:
coming on and also the fact that there
are coal bins tofill and no money
with which to buy the fuel.
It Saves You Money

Howard's specific for the cure of consti-
pation and dyspepsia by J. D. Murray
