A Regular Meeting Was Held
Last Night.
SOME POINTS DECIDED
Active steps Taken to Condemn Grounds
For Use as Public Dumping Places The
Old Grounds South of Town Thought to
BE the Most Suitable.

A regular meeting of the Board of
Health was held last evening, at which
President Spalding, Secretary Scanlan,
Health Officer Miles and Messrs. Miles.
McHale and Broughall were in attend
ance. The report of the secretary showed
an exceedingly gratifying decrease in the
reports of disease, there being but one
new case of typhoid fever and one new
case of diphtheria since the meeting held
three weeks ago.
Mr.. Miles stated that as he understood
the p. & r. G.. q |. Co. had decided that
1t could not designate any place as a
public dumping ground, and as the Bor-
ough Council had stated that it prac-
tically had nothing to do with the health
regulations of the town, he thought the
Board of Health should take some stems
toward designating some place as a dump
ing ground. He favored the old dumping
place south OF the railroads and west of
the ambridge colliery.
Health Officer Miles said that Mr. S. A
Beddall, agent for the Gilbert estate, had
stated that the ground designated could
be secured providing the dumping would
not interfere with the creeks and roads
On motion, the secretary and nuisance
committee were instructed to see Mr.
DCuudll duu Beb permits 10 use UOe grounds
mentioned and, if possible, grounds else
where to be used as public dumping
places.
On motion, the secretary was instructed
TO notify Undertaken O'Hara to file a
certificate of burial he has withheld for
several weeks and at the first failure to
comply with the rules hereafter will be
met with prosecution, and without notice
The question as to whether the board has
power to COMPEL the cleaning out of cess
pools at night time was discussed at
length. The board does not think it has
the power.
The board also decided that burial
permits must be secured in cases where
children are still born,
After adjournment the members of the
board visited the cellar of the borough
building to investigate its sanitary con
ditiOn. They expressed the opinion that
several improvements could be made in
the place, but took no official action.
Health Officer Miles submitted his
monthly report, specifying a number of
nuisances he had caused to be abated.
The report concluded, "The extreme end
of West Huckleberry alley is in filthy
condition, in fact all the alleys are more
or less dirty, with the exception of Rasp-
berry alley, between West and Chestnut
streets that being curbed and guttered.
l visited Turkey Run and found il in
good condition. l also visited the slaugh-
ter houses and found them the same with
the exception of one which had bin full
of bones The owner promised to remove
them. In visiting different parts
of town I found pigs. cats,
6 dogs and 6 goats, all dead, and had the
High Constable remove them. Asanum-
ber of people of the town are cleaning up
their yards they complain of the distance
being too far from town to carry ashes
and other refuse.

Worlxmen Already Clearing Away Debris
at Park CollIery.
Special to EVENING HERALD.
PARK PLACE, March 31.-The origin of
the fire in Park Place colliery, No. 2, is
yet undetermined, but it is stated the
building was heated by nine stoves, one
of which stood about where the blaze was
first seen. Lafayette Lentz one of the
principal stockholders of Lentz Lilly &
Co., viewed the ruins this morning and
it is stated on good authority, that he gave
orders to rebuild the breaker at once
A gang of men was put to work last
night clearing away the debris and if the
owners calculation do not fail a sub
stantial new breaker will stand on the site
| of the old one within three months In
the meantime 200 men and boys must look
elsewhere for employment. OF this
number about 70 reside in Mahanoy City.
The fire fighters had several narrow
| escapes yesterday morning. Several men
were directing the course of a stream
| from the tip, unmindful or unaware of
| the danger directly beneath them. They
stepped back for an instant to drag up
| more hose, when the timber upon which
| they had stood fell with a great crash
into the roaring flames below A cave in
occurred Just east of the breaker at about
nine o'clock. The breech was 10 by 90
feet on top and fell about fifteen feet
Singularly enough it did not fall until
after several curiosity seekers had passed
over it.
