RBFUNDING THE DEBT.
Meeting of the Borough Council Held Last
Night.


Night.
In accordance with an adjournment taken
at their last regular meeting Councilmen
Hand Kerns, Dougherty, T. j. James,
Staughn, O'Brien, Boehm, McElhenny,
Reese and Mcclure met last night to take
action on an ordinance prepared by Borough
Solicitor Pomeroy authorizing the refunding
of the old borough debt TO the amount of
S25, 900.
1t was decided that the maturity of the
bonds be fixed at 80 years, but the borough
will have the option Of redeeming them
after the expiration Of 10 years. They will
bear interest at the rate Of per cent, pay
able semi-annually.
1t was also decided in order to comply
with the law, that an additional tax rate of
one mill be levied to pay the interest and
one-thirtieth of the debt annually, but as
the assessment for this year is already made
and the tax collector has already acted un-
der it, the additional tax will not be col
lected until next year, and by that time
Council expects to reduce the rate of mills
so that notwithstanding the increase of one
mill the taxpayers will not be required ia
pay more than they are paying at present.

OUR readers will remember the name of
Austin Corbin especially that portion of them
who are miners This same gentleman is
now in Washington telling of the opening
up Of extensive mines in Arkansas to which
he would take about $500 miners of the
Anthracite regions. 1t is significant in
this connection that the information is
vouchsafed that "the men viii be chiefly
foreigners" ," which fully explains the kind Of
labor he is after and the truly phianthropic
and benevolent nature of his enterprise, He
will sell houses and lots to the men, and "a
small portion of their wages will be kept as
rent and also applied to the purchase Of the
house We intend to make these mining
communities models, free from strikes by
giving them an interest in the place"

clergymen from the Episcopal diocesan
convention of the District of Columbia
and portion of Maryland, recently held
here, left for New York today to formally
notify DR. Henry Y. Satterleo of his cleo

cerning an acceptance of the call and

Episcopalian laymen here appointed a
committee to accompany the clergymen to
New York, and they will urge upon DIR,
Satterlee to accept the call

General Harrison Ignores Rumors.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. IA reporter called
at General Harrison residence to ask him
as to the truth of the report connecting his
name with that Of Mrs Dimmick. Pri-
vate Secretary Tibbott said the general
could not be disturbed. "He will not an
swer your questions" said Mr.. Tibbott,
"nor express himself in any way on the
subject His name has been connected in
like manner during the last year or so
with those of half dozen different wo-
men. He would not say anything in any
way in answer to those rumors, and he
will not say anything now in answer to
this one"

that many women owe their beauty to DIR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. The reason
beauty of form and face as well as grace,
radiate from the common center-health.
The best bodily condition results from good
food, fresh air, and exercise coupled with
the iudicious use of the Prescription" In
maidenhood, womanhood, and motherhood,
it's a supporting tonic that's peculiarly
adapted to her needs, regulating, strengthen
ing, and curing, the arrangements of the sex.
If there be headache pain in the back,
bearing-down sensations or general debility,
or if there be nervous disturbances, nervous
prostration, and sleeplessness, the 'Prescrip-
ton" reaches the origin of the trouble and
corrects it. 1t dispels aches and pains, cor
rects displacements and cures catarrhal in
fammaton of the lining membranes. Once
used, it is always in favor.

The apparent discrimination in favor Of
Pottsvile to the deriment of other towns in
the county, in the appointment Of arbitrators
is receiving considerable attention. The re-
marks Of the HERALD ON the subject are an
imously endorsed by the people and has
received attention at the hands Of the public
press. Our views are endorsed by cores
pondent TO the Mahanoy City Record, who
says still the big guns of Pottsville are
being appointed on arbitration cases by the
county courts. 1t would seem that the
judges have an idea that there are no intelli-
gent CD men outside of their own burgh. We
notice, too, that the jury list will be made up
during the coming year of 300 of the county
seat court house loafers, while other towns
this side of the mountain with a larger popu-
lation are to be content with only 100"

WHEELING, w. Va, Dec. 1.-THE big
legal controversy in the United States
court of appeals here, Judge Nathan Goff
on the bench, in which Mrs Emily O'Con-
nor of Brooklyn, sought to stay the sale
of the Long Island Traction company's
properties, which is scheduled to take
place tomorrow, was decided last evening
The day was taken up in arguments and
the case fought bitterly by the large array
of legal talent on either side. In giving
his decision, which was a refusal to stay
the sale, Judge Goff said it seemed to be
going too far to allow the petitioner, rep
resenting only $50 shares, to oppose the
wish of owners of 29I 900 shares.

BOSTON, Dec. 1.-THE Republican adj

municipal affairs for the past eleven
months was overthrown at the polls yes
terday, after one of the most spirited and
hotly contested campaigns in the history
of local politics. The Republican mayor,
Hon. Edwin Upton Curtis, was defeated
by 1876 plurality, and all branches of the
city government are Democratic, the Re
publicans losing control of the board of
aldermen and school committee. Hon.

mayoralty candidate, served for time as
assistant secretary of state during Mr..
Cleveland's present torn.

SULTAN FINALLY YIELDS.
Tho Long Delayed Permission for Extr'
Guard Ships Issued.

GuarO snlps Issueus
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Dec. H. - The long
drawn out controversy between the am
bassadors Of the powers and the sultan
over the question of the admission of nd
ditional guard ships for the protection Of
the embassies was settled at $40 last even
ing by the issuance of an Trade granting
the necessary flrmans to permit the guard
ships to pass the Dardanelles. The demand
was first made upon the sultan on Nov. ",
and scarcely day has passed since then
without its being renewed in a more OF
less peremptory manner.
The ingenuity displayed by the turkish
government in evading a direct answer to
the demand, or when forced to answer,
the effective pleadings put forth for delay,
had almost brought the mind of Europe
to the conviction that the demand would
never be complied with. Meantime days
and weeks passed by without any action,
and the condition of things in Constanti-
nople that brought out the demand mas
almost passed.
The final triumph of the powers in fore
ing a compliance with their demands
seems a barren one, and the long sought
permission to double the regular guard
ships for the embassies, now that IL Is
obtained, seems hardly worth taking adj
vantage of.
Previous to leaving the British embassy,
where he had taken refuge, Kutchuk Said
Pasha, the ex- grand vizier, requested the
sultan TO permit him to leave the country,
with his family.
Further advices are being continually
received here of the unabated disorders in
the interior, and especially of the burning
of Armenian villages This form of out
rage is particularly prevalent in the vilayet
of Van, where the distress existing is ter
rible
