The JohustOwn Tribune OF Wednesday
SAYS The feeling among citizens gener-
ally appears 10 be that the work OF clearing
up the wreck and removing The debris aud
mud progresses satisfactorily. The pIirci-
pal streets are pretty we'll cleared, so that
wagons can traverse them in all directions
OfcouTse, there Is a vast amount OF work
70 be done yet-possibly hsf the task Is not
vet completed-but a steady advance is
everywhere noted, and in due tine we will
sec Sottom all over town. The cellars aud
foundations are stin to clean, and this will
prove big lob. The cleaning out OF stores
proceeds vigorously, the business men do
Ing this work in most instances themselves.
Those OF them who have no stores left 10
/ clean out and are looking forward TO lOca-
tions IN the Park rows, watch the progress
of the construction OF these buildings with
much interest and some impatience. The
work on these temporary structures is be-
ing pushed by Contractor Hughes with every
possible energy.
And while the business interests OF the
town are beirg thus looked after, the people
are not neglecting their home surroundings.
In some instances temporary houses are be-
Ing 6silt. in Others tents are being occupied,
and few of the little Oklahomas are being
scattered about in Woodvale and other
places. Many families, also continue to
leave town, some OF them permanently.
Others for time, TO wait the better condi-
tion of things which a few months must
bTiRg.
The condition OF the people as regards
pTovisians and clothing is as good, perhaps.
as the circumstances VIII permit The re-
oeipt of provisions contributed free by the
outside world has, as was naturally to be
expected, fallen of greatly, and the Relief
Committee finds II necessary to buy a vast
amount Of meat, butter, etc. Bread comes
yetin plentiful quantities baked by Marvin, d,
OF Pittsburg. from the flour contribted by
Minneapolis and other Western cities
There continues, as there ali along has
been. a decided scarcity of comfortable
bedding. mattresses, etc, and many per-
sons are compelled to undergo some rough
experiences In this respect. Two or three
hundred mattresses could be distributed to
/ very worthy people who really need them.
As to the health of the community, it Is
most gratifying to be assured by the Board
OF Health that 1t is excellent. Very few
cases Of serious illness exist. Some meas
/ les, light attacks of diphtherIa, and one or
two cases of fever are all that are known 10
exist.
