flock into the country in a filthy state and

precautions against disease un less officially
notified to do so, and frequently they fail 10
do it then unless the notice is backed By
some indication of force With this view
alone in mind the people of Ssamokin should
receive the order with kindness and show
some disposition to help the board of heaito
in carrying it out At the same time the
people Of Shamukin must bear in mind that
it would be unreasonable to expect the bUarf
of health to enforce the order only against
one class, or certain classes Of people. Tho
board would have no power to make am
exception. Let the people look upon tho
order as a measure for the benefit of all and
let the law-abiding citizens be the first "a

Max was a justice in the Second ward some
years ago he had for his constable tai,
well developed man who was of burly an
pearance when beside man of ordinary
size. At that time war was being waged
against peddlers. One day the constable
walked into Max's office with small bov
arrested for peddling matches When stand
ing beside the constable the boy looked like 4,
pigmy. Max asked for the witnesses and the
constable said they were in Lost Greek. "Ws
cannot give this boy hearing without wit

leaving the boy in the Justices Office. started
for Lost Creek. Max paid no attention 70
the boy who, observing that he was under 10
restraint implied or direct, walked out Of
the office and disappeared In due time the
constable returned with his witnesses and
asked for the boy, He raved and swors
when Max said he did not know where he
was. 81 am not a constable or a iailer, YOU
should have locked the boy up if you wanted
TO keep him, was the only satisfaction the
Justice gave and the constable was obHgea
to pay the witnesses, the bin amounting to
something like eight dollars.

As iorsshadoved in yesterdays HERALD
we find tonight that seven teachers who are
competing in the HERALDs teachers contest
are above the ] 900 mark and the eighth is
less than 100 behind it, The positions of the
seven leaders are the same as yesterday with
one exception Miss Wasley has passed Mr..
Williams and leads him by a score OF 1856.
The high day records made yesterday were.
Miss Baird, 535; Miss Wasley, 2gG; Miss
Fairchild, 173i Miss Stein, l5s; Mr. Williams,
l57i Miss Connolly, ll5; Miss Burns, 14l;

show that the friends Of Miss Baird have
taken a startling interest in her behalf and
the young lady now leads her nearest con

ton Eisephowcraud his
family reside ON East
Line street, near Bowers. Fortune has been
very sparing with the household and many
Affections have fallen upon it the past few
years, and especially within the past ten
months. Yesterday Mr. Eisenhower the
head OF the family, sustained injuries from a
blast that deprive the household Of his help
for some weeks 10 come Flying pieces OF
coal tore the flesh and muscles about his
thighs, lower abdomen and left arm and the
greatest care will be required to heal the
wounds
Mr. Eisenhowers version of the accident
is that he was driving a chute In preparing
for blast he put touch squib in one hole
and a sulphur squib in another After light
ing both he retired to place of safety. One
of the holes fired. Mr. Eisenhower says he
waited Is or 20 minutes for the other and
then went into the place TO relght the other
squib, supposing it had gone out. just as be
got to the place the shot went oil and he
caught the force of the flying debris on hi.

went oil first and the touch squib, for some
unexplained reason, held fire.
few years ago one of Mr. Eisenhower
sons was killed on the P. & r. railroad AT
No. 3, and a short time after another son was
killed ON the Lehigh Valley railroad in the
| cut near Main street in this town, Last May
when the family was sOrely in distress fnan
cially and otherwise on account of Mr.
Eisenhower having been out of work for q
number of weeks, partly on account of i'll
ness and because work was scarce when he
was WELL an infant died. The facts were
given to the public and the family was re.
lieved of its distress, but a few days later the
sixteen. .year.old son died suddenly. An in.
vestigation showed that he died from the
effects of kick on the head he received from
a mule at Forepaugh's circus when it ex-
hibited at the trotting park.
For the past few months the family has
enjoyed better fortune, the father having
secured employment at Kelley Run, but
Just as he was hoping to soon recover from
the effects of the severe stroke Of misfortune

Four substantial brick business blocks

The burg is contributing its quota of

equal number contemplate the trip as

Hot winds have very materially dam
aged the oats crop around here, com
polling the farmers in many instances to
harvest the immature crop and stack it
for hay. The dry weather has also af.
fected the hay crop, but the cutting in
general is over and the yield is appar-
emily satisfactory SO far.
The sanitary condition of the village
is in a frishtful cor dition and in the
event of continued dry, hot weather a
disastrous endemic of typhoid or other
malignant fever is bound to prevail in
the community. The authorities are
p~rofuse in legislation but wofully lack
ing in ability to execute, and the con-
tinuod present state of hygienic sur
r~oundings is certain to result in a death
ly scoop in the near future. Will not

The grouse crop promises to be very
abundant in this territory, but We give
due warning to the sports and pot-huLt.
ers in general that the law regarding the
opening of the season. Aug. ID, must be
properly observed. The birds are moi
half grown yet and will still be very

The mayor showed how a saving of
from 5000 to 800 a month might be
made by suspending certain useless Of
ficers, and the council by a tie vote, the
mayor casting the deciding vote, and
Hanson not voting, ordered that from
one to three policemen, the fire watch,
man, city engineer and poundmaster be
suspended.
The city attorney gave his opinion
that the paving contract should be in
no way interfered with, unless all abut-
ting property owners consent to the
changes desired to be made. In view OF
this opinion, the committee appointed to
investigate the matter reported adverse.

But the Lives of Several Human Beings
Were Seriously Endangered.

IA the Lives Of Several Human Beings
Were Seriously Endangered.
Shortly after 0 o'clock Friday eve as
an electric car containing about a dozen
persons was passing west on the north
side of the b. & NJ. addition, an accident
occurred which might have been a very
serious one. The motorman was in the
car collecting fares, and the car was run
ming at full speed when it struck a COW
that was crossing the track. In an in
slant the heavy Car was thrown from the
track and jolted over the ground some
di stance before the motorman succeeded
in turning off the current.
Luckily there was not sufficient en-
bankT ent at that particular point to
turn the car over, but as it was there
were some narrow escapes on account Of
the women and children trying to jump
from the car. They were held back, and
all escaped without being hurt. The
COW that was the cause of the trouble
was crushed underneath the car.
Among those in the derailed car we're
Mrs. G. o. Mcfarland aud child. who
had been visiting at the home of G.. W.
poneroy. Miss ToftOu, {. w. pomcroy.
and }. c. Mitchell. The names of the
other passengers were not learned. 1t is
clear from this circumstance that it is
not safe to run an electric car at night
without a guard on the front platform.
1t is probably contrary to the instruc-
lions Of the company, but if not it ought
