LAST night a number Of drunk and
disorderlies were arrested by crowd
after they had assaulted several peo-
pie. No police could be found al
though the crowd whoeped and yelled
over town for a half hour. Finally
the men were released. In short
time they ran afoul of Policeman
Fleming and he gathered couple Of
them in. Still later another one was
rounded up by the police. There was
considerable excitement over the ar
rests. Mcfarland jumped at one who
had pulled gun on him and after
seizing the fellow found that the gun
was harp which glistened in the
light appearing to be weapon.

EVERY one is glad that the strik e
is over at the Mdrganntown factory
and the hope is universal that no
more trouble may arise down there in
the future.
Many OF the employees Of the Nor
gantown Glass Works will have to go
to other towns unless they can get
work in the other factories here as
there won't be work enough to go
around. The Morgantown will run
with only about two thirds of the

ably result in a decisive score.

has extended his trade TO all parts OF

pected to keep the practice up for
month or more. The fact is that il
is due to do something of that kind
to make up for the long dry spell
from which the streams have been
suffering.
WHILE the water companies are
fussing in Uniontown over whether
a new company shall be allowed to
enter the city there isn't half the

A ppendlcitiS.

Appendicitis" said Dr. Able in an
address before the New York Academy
of Medicine, has few rivals in the sur
gical field and takes rank today with
typhoid, pneumonia and rheumatism in
medical thought. Surely when the ac-
tive surgeon of today can number 100
operations for diseased appendices
yearly-and there are n dozen such men
in New York and in other cities in the
same prOportion-we begin to grasp the
Importance of the subject and its men
ace to the community.
"The public continues to ask the ply
stefan what was appendicitis formerly.
and he answers, Probably it passed
under the description of inflammation
of the bowels" or 'peritonitis." 1t is
true that less than a generation ago
numberless people in the course Of
summer travel were stricken with so
called Inflammation Of the bowels or
peritonitis and died.
Now we hear of no one so reported,
but 1t is said, He had an attack of ap-
pendicitis, was beyond the reach Of a
surgeon and died. or, 'So-and-so had an
attack of appendicitis, was operated
upon and recovered Hospital statis-
tics show the same changes of tabulat-
ed diseases. 1t is merely a new name,
not new disease"
