REMOVING
THE MARKET

The question Of relocating the curb
stone market will come up before the
Borough Council at its meeting to-
morrow night. Owing to the paving
of Mill street a point has now been
reached where the market at least
temporarily will have to be removed
from that thoroughfare.
The question to settle will be
whether the removal should be per
manent or not ;also what street is best
adapted for the market.
Not few of the merchants, who
would like to see the market kept on
Mill street, take the view that even
with the trolley line in operation
there will be ample room for the wag-
ons and advocate bringing the market
back as soon as the street is paved.
1t is evident, however. that there will
be opposition to this course.
Whether the removal is to be perm
anent or not nice point to settle
Will be which street is best suited
for the market. Many persons taking
into consideration the location of the
town, one populous section lying as
1t does on the north side and the other
on the south side, think that Ferry or
some other street extending north and
south should be selected as one that
would be convenient for the greatest
number of people. They hold that
Lower Mulberry street would be too
lnconvenient for residents of the First
and Second Wards and that Mahoning
street is too remote from portions of
the Third Ward and Yorks' Hill
The matter is now up to Council
for immediate action. as the market
is already partially crowded off the
street and but two or three market
days remain before the portion now
occupied will be closed by the con-
tractor.

SUICIDE At
WASNINGTONVILLE

\ sad case of suicide occurred at

when Harry HoberIing, single man
( thirty-nine years of age, took his life
/ by hanging.
The unfortunate man was son of
George Heberling and lived with his
father and brother John on Water
street Harry was a carpenter and for
some years conducted a small business
IN WaShingtonyiIle, manufacturing
wheelbarrows, tables and the like.
OF late he seemed to decline in
health and grew morose and despond-
ent. He became quite recluse and
was seldom seen in public.
During yesterday his brother John
was working away from home. Short
ly after ? O'Clock the father missed
Harry and instituting search found
him hanging in the garrett.
Mr.. Heberling was nearly overcome
at the discovery. He gave the alarm,
in response to which Elmer Cotner
and Thomas Pollock went into the at
tic and cut the suicide down. Dr..
Hotfa about the same time responded
to call. An examination showed
that the last spark of life had fed and
that the man had been dead for some
time.
The suicide was deliberately plan
ned. The deceased after securely fas-
tening a rope to the ralter, mounted
a box. after which he adjusted the
rope around his neck and jumped off
The Justice of the Peace after learn
ing all the facts in the case decided
