Raised Tax Rates.

Another mill has been added to the
tax rate of Sunbury. This was done
by the school board in fixing the rate
of the coming year at eight mills for
school purposes. and two mills for
bond payments. The erection of two
new school buildings, upon the bonds
for which interest must be paid and
retain amounts set aside for their re-
tirement from circulation, also added
a burden which could only be met by
increasing the tax rate.
This is the second raise of the taxes
of the Sunbury people this spring.
The first was by the borough council,
which has even greater difficulty than
the school board in paying the var
ious debts incurred in the course of
year.

told about it by Mr.. Sharpless. The
real trouble, however, was at Milton,
Tuesday, when he was told to go in
the box against: Milton, and refused
point blank to do so.
Without doubt Hine is one of the
best pitchers in the league and up un-

could not complain of poor treatment
here for he has been given a chance
in the box at almost every game since
he came here, in order that he might
get good control, while Shatto and
Sharadin were put in the outfield or

Hine left town Wednesday and de-

ANOTHER DEADLOCK

Another deadlock prevented the cleo
tion of a colonel for the Twelfth Regi-
meDt, n. G. P, in the balloting at
the armory in Sunbury Saturday night
to take the place made vacant by the
promotion of General @. NJ. Clement
Major W. @. King, who had been a
candidate for the rank at the previous
session, withdrew, leaving Major Will
liam +. Follmer, of Lewisburg and
Capt. Hugh II. Taylor, of BeIlefonte
in the field. The result of the ballots
was tie, II to II.
There are at present two vacancies
in the regiment, Capt. John B. Beck,
Co. l, having gone on the retired list
and Lieut. T. r. Hayes, of 90. d,
having resigned.
The election was conducted by Gen.
Clement, who announced at the be-
ginning that if he saw that there
would be a deadlock at any point he
would stop the balloting.
After seven ballots were cast he ad-
jOurned the meeting.
Major Follmer had the same num-
Der of votes as before while all of
Major Kings supporters representing
the companies at the upper end turned
to Capt. Taylor.
Being unable to break the deadlock
at Saturday evenings ; session the cleo
tion was adjourned without dste max
ing a new order necessary when an
other attempt is made.
In the meantime Lieutenant Colonel
William f. Barber will command the
regiment and it is now improbable
that another attempt at holding an
election will be made before camp.

LAST YEAR RECALLED

While the wet and cloudy weather,
prevailing for the last month or so,
which has kept out the cheerful sun
shine soaking the earth and dampen-
ing the spirits of humanity, has not
been precisely the kind to covet, new
ertheless it is by no means unprece-
dented
Those persons who think we never
had such weather before must have
short memories. As a matter of fact
last spring as relates to damp and
cloudy weather was nearly identical
with the present
As late as June 18th the newspapers
contained discouraging reports as to
the crops. The cloudy weather retard-
ed the growth of corn and vegetables,
while as the effect of the eXtraordin-
airy moisture the weeds grew in pro
fusion, the ground being too wet to
enable the farmers to properly cultiv-
ate the fields
The rain interfered with the success
of the SiX.County Firemen's conven-
tion held in Danyille. On June 4th
settled rain held up the work of de-
corating the town. On the 10th of the
month, during the convention, "a heavy
rain caused the mud to lie in the
streets to depth of several inches and
it was necessary to eliminate East
Market and East Front streets from
the route of the parade.
Just as warmer and more seasonable
weather followed last year so it may
be relied upon to follow this year.
One of these days the clouds will break
and we shall have warm sunshine and
plenty of it. Let us hope that the rain
of which we now have superabund-
ance, may not cease altogether as last
year but that we may have generous
of moisture throughout
the entire season.

CLOTHING CAUGHT FIRE

The two-year child of Adam
Reeder, who resides along the p. d r.
railroad near Hemlock street, while in
the house alone Tuesday eve set fire to
its clothing and came.within an ace of
being fatally burned.
The accident happened about six
O'Clock. Mrs. Reeder had stepped out
leaving her little son, Howard, in the
basement alone. \ few minutes later
the woman heard the-child screaming
and rushing into the house, found that
his clothing was on fire. In her fright
and excitement Mrs. Reeder grasped
the little one and endeavored to tear
off his clothing. BY that time the
flames had enveloped nearly the whole
body
At that juncture Richard Sheppard,
a neighbor, happened to pass the open
door and Observing that the child was
his strength with Mrs Reeder he sue
ceeded in tearing all the clothing off
the child before the undergarments
were CorsumeF.
The left arm of the little one was
shockingly burned, but elsewhere on
the body no serious injury was intlict-
ed. The hair was burned but it is not
thought that the child inhaled any of
the fire.
Mrs Reeder thinks that the child's
clothing took fire from the cooking
stove.
