Harrisburg's taxpayers and other voters will have a chance to say at the election In November whether or not municipal Improvement and Bchool loans shall be floated aggregating $800,000. At a special meeting or select coun cil last evening the municipal loan ordinance calling for S35U.UUU was passed Anally and was signed a few minutes later by Mayor John K. Royal. The School Board some time ago authorized the putting up to the people the question of whether or not the school indebtedness should be increased by $4 50,000 to provide for a new central high school. And this makes possible the presen tation to the people of the city the following Items upon which to mark yes or no For construction of a new high school, Building new sowers.

$100,000. Parks arid playgromuls.S 100,000. PaviiiK, $50,000. Isle of safety ami public comfort station. $25,000.

Asphalt repairing plant, $25,000. Bridges, $25,000. Fire apparatus. "Loan Caused Bic Flurry The loan ordinance was the cause of considerable flurry in' both branches of Councils, due to the recent activity of Commoner Rodenhaver, who wrtfcted an item of $150,000 incorporated therein to provide for a municipal ice plant. Common Council finally voted down Mr.

Rodenhaver's amendment to thta effect and the ordinance as passed last evening was the shape in which it reached Select. It had been generally believed that Mr. Morgenthaler, Tweflth, would introduce the ice plant amendment in the upper branch along with the item of $25,000 to provide for a municipal hospital. Both amendments, it Is generally believed, would have been introduced Thursday night had Select collected a quorum. Because of the fact that the measure had to be signed before midnight last night so as to appear in to day's advertisements, it was impossible to do this last night.

Such a move would have meant the ylaymg over ror another reading ot the measure and this could not have been done before to day. Mayor Signs Ordinance In signing the measure last evening Mayor Royal wrote the following statement on the ordinance: "I doubt the wisdom of attempting to float a loan at this particular time and moreover I believe there are some Items in this ordinance that are not necessary at present, but Councils having passed the ordinance, and being a firm believer in the referendum, 1 affix my signature thereto." Select Council passed the ordinance without debate. Mr. Snavely, Sixth, voted against the measure. He said he objected to the borrowing of the money at 4 per cent, as it meant practically the borrowing of funds at 120 per cent.

Basing his figures on $100,000, he said that at 4 per cent, in thirty years interest would amount really to 120 per cent. Messrs. Dougherty, Gardner, Hoy, Koons, Morgenthaler. Reese, Taylor, Umberger, Walter and President Bacon voted for the measure. Mr.

Snavely voted against it and Mr. Baer was absent. Select last evening passed finally the ordinance transferring a portion of the Antcheil tract in Reservoir Park tothe Park Board. Common Passes Ordinances In a brief session Common passed finally two ordinances, one a post poned measure which has long been on the calendar, authorizing a certain portion of North Front street from Maclay to Division streets to be set aside for public park purposes. This measure was called up by Mr.

Sheetz, of the Fourth ward, and after it was explained that the city would not be at any expense for paving or alterations the ordinance went through without any opposition. The ordinance providing for additional electric lights went through and with the above measure will go to the Mayor to day for his signature. The new lights will be placed as follows: Arc Lights Front and Iron streets, Eighteenth and Sycamore streets, Twenty two and a Half and Brook wood streets. Garfield and Ellerslie streets, Derry and Melrose streets, Nectarine and Reese streets, Zarker street between Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets. Eighteenth and Mulberry streets.

Thomas To shesky, the miner who was entombed eight days ago in a breast at the Lehigh Valley Coal Company's Continental colliery, was liberated by a rescuing party at 7.20 this morning. He was uninjured as he crawled through a small aperture after his dismal tomb had been opened.

He was first greeted by Superintendent H. J. Heffner, who was in charge of the rescue party. "Good morning, Mr. Boss," cried Toshesky to Hsffner.

"How are you? I am glad to be out of prison."

Shortly before 6 o'clock the western sky was filled with a brilliant red light. To a man in the central part of the town came the thought that the Gettysburg rolling mills were afire. He bellowed "Fire!" and in a minute the alarm bell was ringing out over the village. Dashintr through the muddy streets, splashing through pools of water, the firemen dragged their heavy engine down Chambersburg and Baltimore streets. At Washington street the men came to a stop.

The fire disappeared from the sky. The sun had 6et. Slowly, painfully, almost angrily, the firemen pulled their engine homeward. They were engry, for this is the third time within a month that a false alarm has called them out to extinguish a fire at the rolling mills. The first time it was a lighted match in a waste paper basket.

The second time it was the reflection of a railroad switch light in the windows of the factory. Yesterday the sun.
