Recommendations.

Recommendations.
c. Fl. Wolten and Robert Allison, who
constitute the local committee representing
the State Board of Public Charities and Com
mittee on Lunacy spent all of Saturday
making a thorough inspection of the county
almshOuse and insane buildings at Schuylkill
Haven. The result of their observation Mr..
Wol1en forwarded in reports to State Secre-
tary Cadwalader Biddle, of the Board of
Charities, and DR.. Wetheril, secretary of the
State Committee on Lunacy. The reports
embrace these facts
Number of insane patients, liz. OF this
number A are women, of whom 81 are of
foreign birth. OF the 6S men patients, 33 are
foreigners. There are in the entire Aims
house institution 449 patients, including Ia
infants.
The local members of the State Board
found the Almshouse buildings in very
creditable condition. They believe that the
present insane department could be used for
an infrmary. The old stone and frame
buildings should be torn down.
separate building for the insane, isolated
from the Almshouse proper, should be put
up on the other side of the turnpike. 1t
should be provided with wards similar to
those of hospital. The $4,000 for the
insane improvements approved by the
County Commissioners about the time the
new Almshouse hospital was finished, and
afterward approved by the State Board of
Public Charities, could be well expended for
new building for the insane.

AN ASHLAND SUICIDE.
Frank Appenzener Ends His Life with
bullet.


Frank Appenzellcr we'll known resident
of Ashland, committed suicide at his home
there Saturday evening by shooting himself
through the heart with revolver, causing
instant death. The suicide was evidently
premedtated and the weapon with which IL
was committed was purchased by the victim
at Mahanov City last Thursday
Appenzeler was 81 years old He left q
wife and four children, the youngest child
being an infant in arms. Deputy Coroner
O'Hara will hold an inquest this evening and
the funeral will take place tomorrow.
The widow and her family reside near the
corner Of Third and Walnut streets Ashland
Appenzeler was employed for a long time
at Laubenstein's screen works in that
town, but lost his position through
drinking. He then secured employ
ment as a canvasser in this region for
the Philadelphia Inquirer but lost it through
the same cause. About month ago he went
to Philadelphia and secured employment as a
canvasser for the Press of that city. This
position he also lost and started to work his
way home. Arriving at Reading he made
use of his membership in the Ashland lodge
of the Royal Arcanum to carry out some
questionable schemes to secure money from
the members. He was exposed by the news
papers and the attending disgrace seemed to
prey upon his mind. He was talking with
his wife about the affair at about five o'clock
on Saturday evening when the wife said he
was alone responsible for his troubles Ap-
penzellor remarked, That settles it," and
Immediately went upstairs. A few moments
later a shot was heard. Mrs. Appenzeller in
stinCtively realized what had occurred and
ran screaming into the street, Neighbors
entered the house and found Appenzeller
lying dead upon the floor of his bedroom
with the revolver clasped tightly in his right
hand. The fatal wound was directly through
the heart

Saturday did not develop the spirited contests
that many people expected. In the First and
Fourth wards there was no opposition. In
the Second Third and Fifth wards the

times there was reason to believe, from the
feeling shown, that some of the results would
be close, but the returns showed that the
winners had big margin.

follows:

The Polish societies Of shamokin have
adopted an excellent plan to settle the differ
enees of their members without resorting to
arrests. If two members quarrel and come
to blows they report to their society and at
the next meeting they air their grievances
and if possible the trouble is adjusted. If
both parties are still dissatisfied then the
laws aid is invoked.
