An all important duty devolves
upon the Board of School Commits

the tax collector to pay over prompt

be paid promptly.

An Agent from the L. 5. Signal Service
Office visited Somerset last week for the pur-
pose of establishing signal service station
at this place. II the Borough Authorities,
or the people of the community will furnish
the signal flags the kilograms announcing
sent here free of charge. BY this plan
warnings OF the approach of a cold wave or
any sudden change in temperature are Civ
eli 10 the public from twenty-four TO forty
eight hours in advance Of their arrival. By
the term '-cold wave" is understood q sud-
den and decided fall in temperatures as when
the temperature falls from fifteen TO thirty
degrees or more, within very short time.
During the season of vegetation the cold
wave flag will only be hoisted when the
temperature is expected to fall to point in
dicating frost. Tn many occasions the un
expected arrival of these sudden changes in
temperature has proved very disastrous to
the interests of persons engaged in agricul-
ture, stock farming, shippers Of perishable
goods and Others, and the purpose of the
Chief Signal office in sending out these
warnings is that persons engaged in al in
dusiries liable to be affected by cold weather
OF sudden changes in temperature may
be enabled 10 take the proper precan-
tions necessary to protect their inter
ests by being informed in ample time of
the coming cold waves. which it il po9ible
for tie service to pre- Iict with great aeon
racy. The flags required are seven in num-
ber, not less than six feet square, and offhe
following colors White flag with large red
sun in centre to indicate Higher Tempera-
turen or warmer weather. White flag with
red crescent in centre to indicate Lower
Temperature or colder weather. White
flag with red star N centre, 10 indicate ''Sta-
fionery Temperature" White flag with
al Rain Tor Snow.T' White flag with blue
crescent in centre 10 indicate Clear or Fair
Weather White flag with blue star In
centre to indicate Local Rain Tor Snow. J.
The cold wave signal is white flag about
eight feet square. with black centre, about
two feet square The flags can be purchas-
ei for Sl7 30 for the lot or the material can
be bought and the flags made here for half
that amount II Is to be hoped that the
borough authorities viii take an Interest in
this matter and purchase the flags and make
arrangements to have them displayed at
some suitable point in the town, over the
post-otiice for instance. and ii they do not

The new well in the Courthouse yard, in
its present condition. is dead failure, and
the contractors should not receive one penny
from the County Commissioners until they
fulfill their contract to the letter. The well
was drilled to depth of two hundred and
forty feet when a pump was put in, the
whole thing costing in the neighborhood of
four hundred dollars. AS it stands it is
practically of no value, and only defaces and
spoils the appearance Of the beautiful
grounds 1t requires two men to work the
pump. and then they have to work like a
" demnation old cart horse in demnation
old cart " before they can force weak,
sickly flow of water from the nozzle. The
water has an unpleasant taste, which we are
told Is due to the piping. which it is alleged
was not put in according TO contract. To
accept the job from the contractors and pay
for it as it stands, would be an iniquitous
waste of the peoples money.
