FIRE.-On Tuesday about noon the
dreaded cry of fire was heard on our
street. Our people rushed to the scene,
which proved to be Squire Reifsynder's
summer kitchen. The entire inside of
the roof was all abiaze when discovered
but fortunately the fire had not yet
broken fully tn rough the roof. Ready
hands were instantly at work flooding
the building with water and afterwards
tearing of the entire roof The fire
was soon extinguished. Had it been
discovered little later or Lad our peO-.
pie been less expert or daring, it might
be our sad duty to-day TO record the
destruction of a good portion of our
town. As it was it is another warn
ing to our citizens to adopt some meas
ure to fight the destructive fiend sue
cessful in case of an emergency. Will
it be needed
The Central Mfg, Co. of Lewis
burg are doing an immense business
this year. They have been in business
for twenty-five years and are building
more machines than ever before. The
Buckeye mower, so well known in this
county, is still kept at the head of the
list. The Bates Harvester introduced
in 1880 at once took the lead, the sale
in our county being 2 in go, 6 in Sl and
46 last year. Their agents In this
county, Jno. DeLong j S. Strohecker,
Sid last year 40 machines. Farmers
should remember that these machines
are not yankee grimcracks, but made
on the line of our railroad. The shops
can be reached twice day, making it
very convenient for repairs. Their
machines are all put out on their mer-
its, warranted durable, well made, of
good material and run light, and as
the record proves will outlast any 9TH
er machine in the market. Machines
built by this company % years ago are
still running i'm this county. st
The Bellefonte Republican gives its
readers the following bit of informa-
tion OH dog law. The law is a trife
defective, inasmuch as it does not spe-
ci6callY state what dog may lawfully
do when he catches a fellow stealing
h0mS. If We were a 'Senablyn,an We
would have 1t amended:
''If anyone is attacked on the high
way by dog the party has right to
kill the dog, and the owner can be held
accountable for any injury inflicted bv
the animal. Even on tue premises of
TIE owner of dog, should party be
attacked and injured, after endeavoring
to protect himself, the owner can be
made responsible for damages inflicted
provided it can be shown that at the
time he was in pursuit of business or
on friendly visit. If a dog by bark
ing at passing horses and vehicles oo-
casions any damage, its owner is liable
for the loss sustained. Thus the law
very properly affords people protection
for loss or injury caused by dogs"
