Fire Wardens Must Act.

Chief Clerk Conklin, of the State
Forestry Commission, says the unus
ual number of forest fires raging
throughout Pennsylvania this spring
is the result of the general lack of the
customary spring rains, and the con-
sequent dryness of the underground
of the forests. The growth of leaves
on the trees has been very backward
and the conditions have been favora-
Bile to spread of the forest fires.
There are no steps that can be taken
by the Forestry Commission in the
direction of fighting the fires, except
through the fire wardens of the vari.
GUS townships and the County Com
mlssioners, who are vested under the
law with the responsibility of pre-.
venting the spread Of the destructive
flames.

thought they knew little something
about the party machine. For some
reason the republican leaders are all
adding to the size of Gov. Teddy's
mead by the deferential manner in
winch they are treating him. Mr..
Mckinley gave dinner in his honor.
and he was invited to a dinner given
to the republican leaders in Congress
by Boss Hanna, at which the platform
to be adopted by the Philadelphia
convention was read by Hanna and
Roosevelts advice asked as to its
planks. If you ask what all this means
you ask the question which has been
asked thousands of times in Washing
ton, this week, and not yet satisfac.
torlly answered. One very reasonable
answer is that the republican manag-
ers have become alarmed about New
York, and are seeking to add to the
prestige of Gov. Teddy IN order to
help him towards re election, which
they regard as helping Mckinley in
the State. Whatever their object,
they are making Gov. Teddy believe
that he is the whole thing, which, by
way is not difficult to do.

Nervous Children.

Intelligent people are beginning to
understand the importance of pro-
tecting the nervous system in infancy
and the danger Of shock to childish
nerves. As rule the more quiet a
baby is kept during the first year of
its life the better chance 1t has fer a
life of health and happiness. The
fact that SO large proportion of the
human family die in infancy is due
largely to the folly of nurses and the
ignorance of mothers. Overnight
babies do not commend themselves
to physicians, who know that a first
year of child's life should be spent
largely IN sleep. All efforts 10 arouse
the dormant mind of child at this
period are attended with danger.
The foolish practice Of tossing a help
less baby in the air, while it screams
both with a fright and delight, is
most dangerous one.

Important Legal Decision

In Juniata comfy court last week =,
a case of the owner of farm against
her Tenant was on trial. The prose
cutrlx depended on the written lease,
signed by the tenant, to prove her
case. The point was raised by the
defendants attorney that the lease
not being stamped according to the
act of Congress, it was not legal
lease and therefore should not be ad-
mirted in evidence. The court sus-
tanned the objection and the prosecu-
trix lost her case.

To Save Her Boy.

Love tor her boy was the cause of
the fatal burning Of Mrs. Robert
Sherer, in the village of Oregon Hill,
Lycoming county, last week. Forest
fires threatened their home and while
battling for their safety the mother
and son became surrounded by the
flames. With only one thought, the
saving of her offspring, the mother
took him through the flames, but in
doing SO her clothes caught fire and
she was fatally burned before succor
could be given her.

Hummel Breaking Down.
The lycoming County Murderer is a Physical
Wreck.

William Hummel, the quadruple
murderer, is physical wreck, and
may have to be carried to the scaffold
when he is hung next month. He
told the death watch a day or two ago
that he had the nerve to ascend the
scaffold but was afraid he would not
be physically able when the time came.
HummePs eyes are wan and sunken /;
HIS hair has witened perceptibly, and
he is weaker and takes less interest in
his surroundings. He resents the
curiosity of the public, seeming to
think that there will be great rejoicing
over his demise and large crowd
present. he denies, however, that
he is worrying over his approaching
death He calls for dozen different
dishes in a day, but when they are
brought he eats hardly anything. He
has all the arrangements made for his
funeral.
