Prepare Yonr Feet For the Fnnrth
Bonds Issued Illegally.

An opinion that may have bearing upon
several towns in this county has been handed
down by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
in which that tribunal sustains the lower
court, in the case of Sene against the Borough
of Ephrata, Lancaster county. The act of
1874 authorizing borOughs to issue bonds up
to per cent. of the assessed valuation was
amended by the Legislature last year, and it
seems line was left out which gives the act
of 1895 another meaning. The act of 1874
made it obligatory on the part of the Council,
where they bonded the town to the limit of 7
per cent. of the assessed valuation, to levy a
tax of per cent. of the amount borrowed
This made the taxation exceedingly
heavy in some towns and to remedy this
the act of 1895 was passed, but mistake
was made in the wording, making it appear
that the borough could only borrow per-
cent. of its assessed valuation, and the
supreme Court has sustained the Lancaster
Court in taking this view of it. The borough
of Wilmerding voted to issue bonds for
S3s, 900 on a valuation of 81 ,645, 900, which is
about $1,000 over the 2 per cent Another
election will have to be held as a result. The
opinion in full has not yet been published.

The PrIoes ON Bicyoles.

Lively interest is evinced in the price OF
bicycles for 1897. Some $4,000 and $4,000
wheels have been put on the market and
listed at 800 The Crescents of standard
make listing at $1,000 will remain the same
next year No doubt some of the machines
listing at 500 this year will be catalogued at
S75 and Ss5 next season. 1t is commonly be-
lieved in wheeling circles that the days of
the 500 wheel have passed. To the keen
observer it is evident that there will always
be higher priced wheels, the same as there are
higher priced hats carriages, ETC., to suit the
various demands.

Possibly n Revolution Has Broken
Ont In COnstantinOple.

Constantinople. Aug. 26.--At 100 O'clock
this afternoon a score of men armed with
revolvers and bombs invaded the Ottoman
bank killing a number of gendarmes on
guard. Closing the doors of Ottoman bank
to prevent the advance of moo, the en-
ployes of the bank fled to the quarters In
the bank building occupied by the tobacco
syndicate, which has control Of the collec-
tion Of taxes on tobacco throughout the
Turkish empire. The invaders mounted the
roof OF the building and from the windows
fired at the police in the street below. The
police returned the fire in a vigorous fash
lon and several were killed and wounded.
The riot became general. shops were
wrecked and bazaars invaded and the Wild
est exeitment prevailed throughout certain
quarters of Constantinople. At ; o'clock
the bank was reported still In the hands OF
Invaders. A later report says that there Is
no doubt but what the movement is revo-
lutionary In plan and scope. and that 1t had
its origin at the secret meetings OF the
Hintchikast Armenians. About forty OF the
rioters were still In possession of Ottoman
bank at a late honr this evening, despite all
efforts Of the government forces to remove
them from the building. Adyices from the
disorderly sections OF the city late tonight
were TO the effect that the riots still con-
tinue and that the mobs are constantly In
creasing In the galata quarter. A bomb
exploded in Constantinople near the Galata-
sera guard house. Many soldiers were killed
and wounded.
