Transacts Much Important
Business \
The regular monthly meeting of
the borough council was held last
evening and much business of im-
portance was transacted.
The matter of a light at the
Bradiord street crossing was
brought up and the clerk instructed
to write to the railroad company
relative to placing a light there
The crossing is a dangerous place
owing to the amount of shifting
done there, and several accidents
have been narrowly averted
Councilman Hassler spoke of the
accident that had occurred on the
street car line lately and suggested
that the traction company be
required to put fenders on their
cars. A committee consisting of
Councilmen Hassler, Dobel and
Evans was appointed to confer
with the company in regard to this
matter. :
James Dyer of Athens spoke to
the council relative to moving the
old parish building to the back end
of the borough lot and using it for
a cabinet shop. The board gave
him permission to do so, and {n-
structed the committee, appointed
for the purpose, to draw up a cons
tract for five years with the right
of cancellation by either party on
six months’ notice.
Chairman Dobell of the street
committee reported that 6,733 lins
cal feet of side walks had been
laid so far this year.
Petitions” asking for the accept-
ance of Woodruff street, sidewalks
on Olive street from Lincola to
Chemung street and on the west
side of Wilbur avenue from the
borough line to Lincoln street,
were referred to the street commits
tee. -—
A crosswalk was ordered on
Spring street from the line of the
lot of George Weising.
A communication was received
from the fire department, calling
attention to the fact that the Wil.
bur hook and ladder company had
sold its team. The matter was
referred to the fire committee with
power to act.
A request was also received ask-
ing the fire committee to meet the
firemen with a view to testing and
purchasing a new cutoff nozzle.
The attention of the council was
also called to the fact that the val.
ley firemen’s convention was to be
held at Sayre on September 20 and
that the department was in need of
funds to properly entertain the out
of town companies. On motion of
Councilman Samuels the sum of
$100 was appropriated for that
purpose.
The committee appointed for the
purpose of investigating the request
of C.C. Wood for compensation
for caring for the town clock res
ported in favor of paying $50 for
past service and $30 per year be-
ginning with March 1, 1906. The
council acted favorably on the
recommendation.
The matter of a light and hy
drant at the corner of Harris and
North streets, Milltown, was
referred to a committee.
A request from the police force
for a raise of salary was read. The
patrolmen ask for a raise of gis
per month, making their salary
$60, and the chief asked for $75 a
month instead of $60, which he
now receives, The request was
referred to the police committee,
On motion of Councilman Dobell
the street commissioner was in-
cluded.
The town hall committee had no
further report than to show the
water color drawings that had been
received, and to state that the com-
pleted plans would be here in a few
days.
The report of the sewer commit
tee showed that five of the six test
wells had been completed and that
no as had been encoun |
then introduced to take th: place
of ordinance No 94, which coa-
tained an apparent ambiguity, leav~
ing it uncertain whether the sewer
was to be: a single line for sanitary
and surface water drainage, or a
double line system : one as a sani
tary and the other for surface wa-
ter drainage. The new ordinance
does away with all uncertainty in
this respect and was adopted after
a long discussion on the part of
Councilman Hassler and others,
whether the word “pipes” meant
more than one line of pipe or re-
ferred to the different sizes of pipe
in one line. At last the final “s"
was cut off and everybody was
satisfied, :
Proposed ordingnce No 97 was
then adopted. This ordinance
provides for the issuing of 25 bonds
of $1,000 each, to bear interest at
4 per cent. and to be numbered
from 1 to 25. No. 1 is to be paid
Octolier 1, 1911, and one bond each
succeeding year. This will pay off
the last bond 29 years from the
ate of issue. The bonds are to be
paid by general taxation and a rate
of one mill on the dollar is thereby
levied for that purpose,
The first ordinance provided for
$100 bonds and made them pay-
able at any time after 5 years or
within 30 years, at the option of
the borough,
The police pay roll for the month
was $209.60 and the street payroll
was $207 6o.
Chief Walsh was paid $3.00 for
disposing of three dogs that had no
tags, and apparently go owners.
Street Commissioner Field was
granted a vacation fro.n August 12
to September 1.
A large number of sidewalk res
bates were granted. All the prop-
erty owners desired a 25 per ceat,
cash-rebate.
Justice Nelson appeared and stat-
ed that there was no way at pres-
ent to deal with drunks and va
grants unless they were sent to
Towanda at the expense of the
borough. He suggested that sev-
eral balls "and chains be bought
and that they be put to work on
the streets. The councilmen did
not like the street working idea
but thought that it would be well
to revive the old wood pile method,
which proved very effective when
Dory Puff was chief of police. The
police cammittee was instructed to
purchase the necessary balls and
shains, and the police directed to
arrest all vagrants and to see that
they saw wood,
On request 6f Councilman Do-
bell the council went into execus
tive session for a short time,
LAST NIGHT AT THE PARK
The third and last week of the
Bennett-Moulton Company's en
gagement at the park opened last
evening with a fire production of
Mr. Adam's latest play of life on
the frontier, “A Cowboy's Ro-
mance,” and before a large audience
scored an unqualified hit. The
scene of the play being laid in
southern Utah, it was to be expect-
ed that Mormonism would be the
theme, and it is well handled, The
parts were all in capable hands
Miss Parks, Mr. Tidmarsh, Miss
Lyons and Mr. Aldrich did good
work throughout the evening, and
Thomas Ma kell got many laughs
as “the judge.” The specialties
were ncw and pleasing. The same
play will be repeated tonight and
tomorrow night the first préduction
of “Jekyl & Hyde" will take place.
STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
Isaac Vosburg, a farmer residing
near Herrick, Pa, was struck by
lightning yesterday and killed. He
lived on a place known as the Foyle
farm, and went to the barn during
a thunder shower, and while out
there lightning struck the barn |
and shocked Vosburg so seriously |
as to cause death instantly.

Seigel, were out rowing on the
Susquehanna. They were coming
down through the rifts, where the
current is very swift, and struck an
