Under the agreement, sealed in two days of negotiations that dragged into this morning, Beijing will also provide $2.87 million to cover damages to the U.S. Embassy and consulates in Chtna caused by anti-U.S. protesters angered by the bombing. The deal helped put an upbeat ending to a year that saw China-U.S. ties si nk to their lowest point in decades because of NATO's May 7 bombing. Disputes over human rights. Taiwan. U.S. allegations of Chinese espionage and China's banning of the Falun Gong spiritual movement have further aggravated ties. " I'm sure this settlement will be conducive to the ·improvement and further development of U.S.-China relations," said State Department legal adviser David Andrews, who negotiated the compensation deal. "I hope this day marks the beginning of a more positive trend." Andrews noted that the deal was struck just hours after the new U.S. Russian military suffers defeat at Chechen hands ambassador 19 China, Joseph Prueher, presented his credentials to President 1 Jiang Zemin.•rormally filling a post left empty since July. .. Under today's agreement, the U.S. government will ask Congress for·~he ~ $28 million to pay for e)(tensive damage done to China's Belgrade embassy. The money comes on top of $4.5 million in compensation Washing~on paid to the families of three Chinese journalists killed and 27 other people injured in the bombing. China has never accepted U.S. explanations that the bombing was a mistake caused by faulty mlelligcnce and targeting. Government-run media said the bombing was intentional. inflaming the violent protests in China. Although the deal, reached in the fifth round of negotiations since June, settled the issue of property damage, it did not assuage Chinese indignation. The bombing was a "barbarous act" and a "gross violation" of international law. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhu Bangzao said today in comments carried by the official Xinhua News Agency. Zhu again demanded ihat the United States thoroughly investigate the allack.

Despite'U.S. requests, China has yet to resume high-level military contacts and talks with the United States on human rights and security issues that it suspended in anger after the bombing. Adding to the woes, China assailed the United States last week for supporting Taiwanese participation in the World Health Organization. Only days before, China. lashed out at President Clinton for criticizing Beijing 's crackdown on "'lim Gong and assailed U.S. sanctions on crime control equipment because of Chinese religious persecution.

At a Beijing summit, they spoke out against proposed U.S. anti-missile defenses and what they regard as Arne(- · ican domination of global affairs. China's Foreign Ministry also recently stopped accepting U.S. Embassy protests on human rights issues, making the State Department lodge protests in Washington instead, according to U.S. officials.

The village is having increasing problems with maintenance on those trucks, and Mayor Sandy lannarelli said she thQught the trucks were . unsafe. The village .did not advertise for bids, but Kenny Madden, street department foreman, said he had checked with all local dealers, as well as the state purchasing program, and thought the Chevrolet truck from the Bibbee dealership was the most reasonable purchase for the village's needs. lannarelli said emergency provisions in the Ohio Revised Code allow the village to purchase a vehicl~ without seeking bids in Sentinel News Staff MIDDLEPORT - The purchase of a new truck for the department or public works, and several appropriations adjustments were approved Thursday by the Village Council. The meeting was postponed from Monday evening so members could attend the U.S. 33 public meeting. Council had an extensive discussion about the truck purchase prior to approval. The subject of a new truck was first introduced to council earlier this fall, because of increasing maintenance problems older village trucks are experiencing. Brent Manley, village supervisor, brought a proposal from Jerry Bibbee Ford in Middleport for a one-owner .1998 Chevrolet the event of an emergency, and said the village was facing an emergency now, since tl1ere was no truck to pull the sewer jetler, leaf vacuum and other equipment. "We have no truck," lannarelli said. The village last purchased a truck in 1986. Councilman Steve Houchins, who voted against the purchase, said he thought residents . might be concerned the purchase is unnecessary and might think the village docs not need to collect ' the $5 water improvement charge being collected monthly from each customer. He also said he thought the purchase did not qualify as an emergency measure. lannarelli and Manley noted the $23,000 purchase price would be paid from the water fund and the refuse fund, and not the water improvement fund, which is fed by the $5 monthly charge. (That fund is to be used for direct improvements to the water system.) All council members, with the exception of Houchins, voted in favor of the purchase. Council members . noted they would be attentive to .maintenance on the truck, and urged Manley to maintain complete maintenance records, which Manley said were already being kept for other vehicles. In other business: • Council approved the second reading on a number of funds transfers to correct deficit balances in the parks budget, the fire equipment fund, and various other funds within the village's general fund. The transfers totaled $16,500. • Council also authorized the purchase of bullet-proof vests for the police department. • Jean Craig, president of the Board of Public Affairs, said the board and Floyd Browne Associates, the village's engineering and consulting firm, will investigate two pri vately owned water wells, for possible use by the village. One well is owned by James Mourning, and is on the old Mourning farm properly. That well, if it is deemed suitable for village use, would be donated to the village by Mourning, Craig said. The second well lo be investigated and tested is next to the village garage on Park Street, and was used by the Rich Valley Dairy. • lannarelli said she had discussed the upcoming New Year's holiday with Police Jingle bell rockers .

Middleport to buy truck Bar code software now assisting blind By STEVEN BARRETT Associated Press Writer Disc jockey Alburnic Wright has a much easier time these days separating his Stevie Wonder and his Barbra Streisand.· Wright, who is blind, has labeled 'his compact discs with software that works with a bar code scanner to read descriptions aloud. It works on not only his CDs, but on thousands of his possessions - everything from clothes to soup cans. " It's totally changed my whole life," the Morrisville, Pa., man said. "You can use it for so much." The program, SCANACAN, was developed ·by a Manchester, S.D., couple whose company, Ferguson Enterprises, develops products to assist the blind. Pat Ferguson, who is blind; said the program helps her keep track of her pantry 's inventory. After she uses an item, she tells the computer she now has one fewer on hand. That helps when it comes time to make a grocery list, freeing her from remembering whether she fixed corn or beans for dinner a week ago, for instance. "Computers have made a world of difference in our accessibility," she said. To use tile program, a scanner reads a bar code and a synthesized voice prqvides infonnation the user requests ~ a simple description of the product or, for food, how to prepare it. "Antacid chew tabs," the computer said flatly as Mrs. Ferguson waved it over the bottle. "Cream chick," it said as she waved another can in front of the scanner 's glowing red eye. The voice then spelled out the directions to fix hot bowl of soup. · SCANACAN costs $600 for a scanner and the software package, which has a database with bar c'odes for about 30,000 grocery items. A supermarket chain provided the codes to the Fergusons at no cost. The program allows users to create more databases and will hold up · to 2 billion bar codes, though that number may be limited by the memory available on the computer, said Mrs. Ferguson 's husband, Vernon. ~ (Continued from Page 1) Chief Bruce Swift, and said the police department would be vigilant in watching for prob lems relating to the Y2K event She advised council members and members of the ·public also to be watchful.

" It's a very different world out there now," Clinton said. Later, after reporters were ushered from the room, Clinton gave a frank assessment of the shortcomings or the "don't ask, don't tel l" policy that went beyond his rece nt comments that the policy is "out of whack," participants said. " He said, in essence. thi s pol icy has been a fai lure,'' said Elizabeth Birch, exec utive director of the Human Rights Campaign, a gay advocacy group. Birch said she addressed Clinton directly during the give-and-take ses· sion, telling him he has "a very short window" to follow through on what she calls sincere rhetoric.

"He's done so much to bring,gay issues onto the screen," Birch said before the lunch. "B ut the sad part is, if his presidency ended tomorrow his legacy would be a gag order in the U.S. military and a ban on gay mar· riages" that she believes is unconstitutional. Birch was referring to the 1996 " Defense of Marriage Act," which Clinton initial ly opposed but reluctantly signed into law. Under "don't ask, don 't tell ," homosexual members of the military can continue to serve - and their superiors cannot investigate or expel them - as long as they keep their sex ual orientation to themSelves. Soldiers who say they arc gay may be discharged. The policy falls short of a plain declaration that gays may serve openly and without discrimination , and many gay supporters felt that Clinton had sold them short once in office. Both Vice President Gore and presumed New York Senate candidate Hillary Rodham Cl inton have rcpu· dialed "don 't ask, don't tell. '' Gore said gays should be allowed to serve openly. Clinton told the act ivists that lie • settled on the policy after deciding · during hi s l'irst year in office in 1993 , :, that Congress wouldn 't agree to go .. ' farther. All tn all, he got a warm reception at Thursday 's'evcnt, participants said ..

Clinton could make a renewed push for expansion of the federal law punishing .hate crimes so that it would cover crimes against gays, or he could push for broader protections of gays in the workplace, gay Democrats told Clinton during a pri· vale lunch on Thursday. Participants said later that Clinton described his "don't ask, don 't tell " policy for homosexuals in the milit&ry a failure. In public remarks to the fund-raising lunch, Clinton also ·asked gay Democrats to stick with him in the coming year, and asked thein to remember what he has achieved in seven yearS in office.

Among his comments, Ruskin accused Whistler of " ... flinging a pot of paint in the public's face." During the trial, Whistler said, "Two ·and two continue to make four, in spite of the whine of the amateur for three, or the cry of the critic for five." Whistler won the case. What was the award? At the bridge table, if you know how many cards an opponent started .'·'·:.;.'----with in three suits, you can work out how many be holds in the fourth. Yet many fail to do the necessary arithmetic.
