Higgins, Mcclure, Wurm, Gable, Stout,
Betteridge, Lamb, Franey, Scheify, Will
lam Kimmel, Wragg, j. Il. Pomeroy and
Coskley. The water company representa-
tives were T. r. Beddall, S. D. Hess, John
r Jones, M. Monaghan, E. j. Wasley,
Charles Bowman, D. 9. Henning, Lewis
Grant and George Roads, of Pottsville,
and John Grant.
Gar Lamb presided and opened the bali
by announcing that the joint committee
did not wish to have any newspaper re-.
porters present, whereupon the HERALD
reporter withdrew. Later in the evening
four members of the joint committee
stated that they did not countenance star
chamber proceedings and that they had
made no objection to the presence of re-
porters at the meeting.
According to the information CLEANED by
HERALD reporter after the meeting there
were some spirited arguments on both sides
es to the value OF the water company Is
plant. Some members of tho joint COM
mittee compared the cost of some horses
and COWS with others, but the water COM
pany representatives argued that it was not
question of the value of horses and cows,
but of water works.
Gable said that the dams are in danger
of destruction by mine workings and that
there are cracks that already indicate this.
One of the water company retorted that il
such is the case he could not see why the
borough should be willing to give anything
for the plant.
The joint committee then wanted tc
know what proposition the water company
had to make. The answer was that the
company expected proposition from the
borough, that the company had already
made an alternative proposition-to sell ou
for SIPS 900, or give the borough water fol
fire purposes free of charge and cancel all
Indebtedness.
The committee wanted to know if the
company could not put lower figure OF
the plant and the representatives answered
that it could not change its offer without
having another full meeting of the com
pany's directors TO consider the matter.
Here the conference practically ended
and the water company people then with
drew.
| Gear Lamb then called the joint com
mittee to order and the water question wa
again discussed. Four members submitted
figures on their estimate of value of thu
water company's plant They were
Gable, 100000; Stout, $4,000; Mcclure
| $50 600; Scheify, 800, 900.
A motion was made that the secretary
write to the water company offering S75, ,0Ot
for its plant. Scheify wanted the motion
amended to make the price 100000 on con
dition that the water company cancel al
its claims against the borough.
The motion to offer S75. 600 was fnall,
carried.
The water company is to reply within
six days After the committee considers /
the reply will be submitted to the Borough
Council.

Caution,

limitations have been put upon the mar
ket so closely resembling Allcock's Porous
Plasters in general appearance as to be
well calculated to deceive. 1t is, however,
in general appearance only that they COM
pare with Alleock's, for they are worse
than worthless, inasmuch as they contain
deleterious ingredients which are apt to
cause serious injury. Remember tina
Allcock's are the only genuine porous
plasters-the best external remedy ever
producedi and when purchasing plssters do
not only ask for but see that you get ALI
cocks Porous Plasters.

only of temporary character at present,
1t will soon die out and give room to spec

Happy.

Hal Pointer Has Won. And We are all
Happy.
As was confidently expected, Hal
Pointer took grim revenge on Direct
Saturday at Buffalo, aud wiped out
old scores with the stallion king by
beating him in three straight heats.
Time 2:l0s4, 2:0S14, 2:lI. Pointer was
a favorite at three TO one before the
race began he took the lead at the
start and Direct was never able to
STAY even on his sulkv wheel. In the
second heat Direct got tired before
he reached the distance flag and
Pointer reached the wire in 2:OS14,
four lengths ahead Of the black. In
the third heat it was a ghost dance
for Pointer aud he paced home in
2:ll as he pleased. -......
Last year When Pointer met Direct
here the geiding had gone 81 heats
in an average OF 2:12 lis. Direct
had gone not exceeding sixteen in
less time. He was fresh and Pointer
tired out. Saturdays race proves
that Pointer is now himself again
and unless Direct improves (for in
Justice to him it may lie he is not
vet in condition after his heavy
work in. making his seasOtI) we
predict that. he will not try to fol-
low the great gelding around the
grand circuit.
