A new bureau has been created for this
purpose, known as the coast signal ser

attends to this as well as the work OF the
naval board of information.
The system requires the services of $500
men. stretched all along the coast from
Bar Harhor. Me, to Galveston, Texas.
These are divided into "a central stations,
about 60 to 100 miles apart along the coast.
The stations are in turn connected dl-
rectly by telegraph with the coast signal
office of the navy department, ani oper-
ators are on duty day and night keeping
the navy department in constant tele-
graphic touch with the entire stretch of
Atlantic and Gulf coasts.
Secretary Long projected this plan Il
month ago and SO 900 was set aside to
establish the points of observation along
the coast. Thus far the reports have been
at times alarming.

Special to the Register.
Glenville, w. Va, February S.-Two
men are dead at Normantown, near
hear, the result of drinking thirteen
bottles Of lightning hot drops. They
are John Burton, aged 35 years, a
horse buyer and Dr.. w. w. ChenO-
weth, a physician and veterinary sur
geon, about 40 years of age, who re-
side near Stumptown, who were here
attending the recent session of the Gill
mer county Circuit Court.
On the afternoon of last Wednesday
they started for Normantown, and on
the way consumed besides the hot
drops, several bottles of extract of
lemon. Both became mortally i'll on
the road, and about two Mills this side
of NormantoWn Burton was suffering
to such an extent as to compel him to
stop at the home of Abraham Wilson,
while Chenoweth managed with great
difficulty to reach Normantown.
Burton died the following day in
great agony. He was attacked with
severe spells of vomiting and most in
tense pains, writing and rolling upon
the floor, while his features were so
distorted by his terrible suffering as
to almost blot out all human resem-
blance. Chenoweth died twelve hours
later at Normantown Burton was
single. Chenoweth leaves a widow
and four or five children.
