pie out to hear us. We did not have
enough speakers. and the agriculturists
do not become convinced without having
matters satisfactorily explained to them.
In another campaign the pOpulists will
poll a greater vote and will exert an in
iluence in political matters which will
astonish some of the people who are dis
posed to ridiculc the third party move

William Powell, train conductor
on the Central Railroad, met with
distressing accident, while at work at
1920 o'clock Saturday. The train had
Just returned from White Haven load
ed, and stopped in the Coalport yards
to drill out nine cars of canal coal.
Mr. Powell uncoupled the cars while
the train was moving slowly, and in
stepping back from the track his cloth
ing caught on the bumpers. He was
knocked down and the wheels passed
over both legs, crushing them. The
right leg was severed above the knee
and the left below. The unfortunate
man was picked up by the trainmen
and removed to the baggage room of
the Central depot. Drs. Erwin, Horn and
Kirby were summoned, and upon their
arrival the patient was made as com
Portable as possible. At $50 o'clock he
was removed to st. LulSe's Hospital, at
South Bethlehem.
The Bethlehem Times speaks thus
of our DR.. Erwin: The Kodak Man
Friday afternoon had the pleasure of
greeting the genial physician, DR.. B. F..
Erwin, of Mauch Chunk, who spent a
a few hours in this his native town.
Among numerous topics hurriedly
discussed the late revolution on cleo
ton day, of course, had to be ap-
preached in some way. The doctor
smiled blandlv in approval of the re-
suit lie told the Kodak Man that
opinions as to the cause of the sudden
"change all round" in Uncle Sans
political domains we're being freely
expressed by the literati, mechanics,
labOrinp men. and yarious bodies prC.
fessional throughout the country. The
doctor consented to give his views on
the subject, although he wished it un-
derstood that he was not officially rep
resenting the entire body of physicians
of the United States. However, he
told the Kodak Man, saying it with
great gravity, that "the doctors who
have diagnosed the case pronounce it
a severe case 'epidemocratic grip and
there are no hopes for the victims"

Alcohol for DIphtherla.

The Medical Times says alcohol is
the prince of antiseptics and in diph-
iberia the most perfect and reliable
medicine known. Diluted with equal
parts of water and given in small and
repeated doses, the malignant symp-
toms of this most fatal malady soon
disappear, and convalescence becomes
assured. 1t is interesting to note with
what facility the alcohol dissolyes the
diphtheretic eXudation in the throat,
aud the destructive action upon the
germs Of the disease, which has been
absorbed by the glands and gained ae
cess to the blood. The Times recon
mends that people exposed to diph
iberia use diluted alcohol and swallow
a little Of II three or four times a day.
