Electr.c Fans In sleep ing Cars.

The Baltimore and Ohio Southwest
ern Railway officials have solved the
problem of cooling sleeping cars in
stations at night. At Cincinnati, Louis
vile and ST. Louis this line has sleep
ing cars placed in the stations at 10
.. m, which do not depart until after
midnight, and In order to make them
comfortable and cool have placed 10
inch rotary electric fans in each end Of
the sleepers, thus removing the heated
and impure air from all parts OF the
car. The fans have been in operation
about two weeks, and have been the
subject of many favorable comments
from the travelling public.

When the striped pole or sign which
now indicates barber shop was en-
ployed to let the public know where
cupping or blood-letting was profess
sionally performed, close shaves were
of daily occurrence; not the easy re-
moval of the hirsute or hairy adorn-
ment of the head and face, but close
shaves from entering eternity. More
than one unfortunate entered the bar
ber-surgeon's doorway to leave 1t
corpse or so weak that weeks were re-
uuired to get the victim of malpractice
on his feet. Bloodletting was used for
everything, from heartache TO a corn,
and a pain in the loins was invariably
treated with two missions, one on each
side of the spine. Like plasters and
liniments, these helped from the
counter irritation they created, and
we presume that had Mr.. Calvin Will
son, proprietor of the leading shaving
parlor of Niles, Mich, lived in the
time of George III, of England, in
place of taking the course he did
short time ago with his back, blood
letting would have been resorted to.

Five Young People Drowned.

A terrible accident, involving the
loss of five lives, occurred at Flushing,
when a boat capsized containing four
young people. All were drowned and
a spectator, who endeavored to help
them, also lost his life. The occupants
were Chauncey A. Cook, aged Is, the
Misses Luella and Odalina Loop, aged
respectively IA and 16, and Mildred
Packard, aged 2. a niece of the two
young ladies. The party had been out
for some time, when through some
carelessness in the handling of the
boat it was capsized. All went into
the water, and as none of them could
swim they struggled helplessly about.
At this juncture, Arthur Maxwell, a
popular young clerk, came flying down
to the beach on his bicycle. He quickly
dismounted and plunged headlong into
the river. He was good swimmer,
but had not proceeded half way to the
unfortunates when he was seized with
cramps, and with Scarcely time to cry
out sank and never again came to the
surface. Every member of the party
was drowned except little Mildred.
She was taken out alive, but expired
in short time. MaXwells body was
first recovered, and the others were
soon afterward brought to the surface

Dedicatory Services
OF the New ST. Johns Catholic Church
ut Logan.

On last Sunday occurred the i'm
pressive dedicatory services lin this
city which converted building of
brick, stone and mortar into a grand
and imposing house of God. For
weeks previous TO the elimination
of these impressive ceremonies the
event was looked forward to with
eager expectancy by our citizens ir-
respective of creed or denomination
and all prayed that God might in his
wisdom favor this band of worship
ers with fair weather. The cere-
monies coincident with the day were
opened with parade by the home
and visiting knights. The parade,
while not large in point of numbers,
was, nevertheless quite an impos-
ing sight with its handsome men in
costly uniforms, waving plumes and
flashing swords. Immediately fol-
lowing the parade the dedication
services were opened with a solemn
pontifical high mass, Rt. Rev. John
A. Watterson, Bishop of Columbus
pontificating, assisted by the follow
ing priests: assistant priest, Father
Powers, Logan; Deacons of Honor,
Frs Weisinger, Columbus, and Nc

Bishop delivered an eloquent sermon
commemorativesof the auspicus oc-
casion and took occasion to pay a
high compliment TO the pastor, Fl
Powers, for the untiring energy and
zeal displayed in the erection of the
handsome new edifice and also to
the members of the congregation
and others who responded so cheer
fully to the pastors call for assist.
ance. The compliments were just
and deserved ones and no doubt
amply repaid those for any sacrifices
they may have made.
In the afternoon a class of forty
two were confirmed by the Rt Rev
Bishop at solemn pontificai vesp-
ers and as in the forenoon the pretty
new church was crowded from alter
to doors.
