RUNAWAY ON
SOUTH Side

The horse belonging to the Balti-
more Fruit Company, whose store is
on Mill street, ran away at South Dan
vile Saturday morning and made a
wreck of the wagon.
The vehicle was a covered one of
the usual sort used for delivery pur-
poses. 1t was being driven by a 10y
connected with the concern, who was
returning from the Pennsylvania sta
tiOn. Just as the wagon turned the
corner at Peter Burgers the trolley
car came down off the bridge. The
horse at once became unmanageable.
The motorman as soon as possible
brought the car to a stop and did what
he could to avert an accident The
boy, however, was unable to hold the
horse and the latter made dash for
the bridge. At the foot of the ap-
proach the wagon upset and the lat.
ter with the boy inside rolled top first
down against the fence.
1t was most perilous position for
the driver, but fortunately as soon as
the upset occurred the horse stopped
short. As it was, however, the boys
foot became entangled in the mix up
in such way as to tear the shoe from
his foot. severing the leather from toe
TO heel Just above the sole.
The top of the wagon was a total
wreck. The owner estimates his loss
at fife en- dollars.

FOR JUVENILE EYES.

Wien the merchant robs the trea-

and led him into the vestibule of the
house of mysteries. where all the toys
that delight the childish heart are
kept in heaping piles
There are countless boys and girls
in this town whose little hearts will
yearn to possess just one of these toys.

to go with father or mother on Satur.
day night or Sunday afternoon for a
walk through the shopping district,
with its big buildings that make timid
little souls afraid. And these smudgy
youngsters will hatteu their noses
against the window paues and with
hungry eyes devour the bewildering
array of toys arranged in symmetrical
profusion before them. All the long
ing OF their ardent natures will surge
through their little bodies, but the
joys of being able to behold these
wonderful things will linger in their
memories and make brighter the
gloomy days that travel in unbrok
succession for them.
Every merchant should endeavor to
make the best possible window display
OF his wares, not merely from the
sordid standpoint of commeroialism,
but with the laudable desire to please
the fancy of the beholder and give to
the little ones at least a glimpse of the
many wonderful things that the gen.
ius of the artificer has wrought for
the amusement and delight of the lit.
tie men and women of today.
No merchant should cover his dis
play windows on Sunday with cur
tains. Many poor children will have
no opportunity to view the toys on
display. 1t isn't much of boon to
confer, but such as it is should be
given willingly, freely, in the thought
and belief that it may bring momen-
tary happiness to some poor little soul
that is starving for the pleasures of
childhood. for the joys and toys of
youth-that looks, longs. and hopes,
but always and ever holds out an
empty hand.

HYDRANT WATER
TO BE aNALYZED

DIR. o. Shultz, Secretary of the local
Board of Health, is preparing to send
a sample OF our river water to the
Philadelphia Laboratory for ANALYSIS
The low stage of the river during a
month or so past together with the
pollution of the Stream by ASYLUM
sewage and the prevalence of typhoid
fever at Berwick and other points
above us has had the effect of making
many people solicitous as to the pur-
ity OF our water supply. The Board
OF Health has confidence in the gener-
ally efficacy of our filter plant and re-
gardless of the condition of the river
have doubt whether bacteria or im-
purity in any form will be found in
our hydrant water. To quiet all fears,
however, they have decided to test the
matter and will procure an analysis
as above related.
There was nine foot food on the
river yesterday and the water was still
rising. Naturally. the immense vol
ume of swiftly flowing water is rela-
lively free from sewage or any trace
of pollution from infected towns and
the river at present one would think
would be the last place to look for
bacteria whatever its condition may
be in other respects.
DR.. Shultz yesterday stated that he
would take the water to be analyzed
from the reservoir at the filter plant,
where in his opinion conditions are
about the same as existed before the
rise in the river. 1t will be some days
before report as to the purity of the
water will be received. Meanwhile
with the river at its present stage the
public will rest with feeling of CON-
psrative security, although where boil.
ing the water has been practiced it
would not be inadvisable to continue

AT the last meeting of the Soldiers

day the formal transfer of money was

the work Of soliciting to lag but every
effort will be put forth to raise the

Uniforms Selected.

Captain John @. Groome, who has
been spending many months in organ
izing the State constabulary, has de-
cided upon the uniform which the

sockets on the lett side for twelve
cartridges, and holster on the right

NOT FOR BOYS.

In view of the fact that we are soon
TO have a bowling alley in operation
here it may be of interest TO boys to
know that they will not be permitted
to loiter about the alley, no matter
how tempting the place may prove to
be. There is law, which is being
enforced all over the State, making it
a misdemeanor for persons conducting
bowling alleys or billiard or pool
rooms to employ or harbor boys under
eighteen years of age.
Judge Staples at previous term of
court in this county called attention
to the recent law and insisted that it
be enforced. The proprietors of the
new bowling alley are known to be
very careful to see that the law is not
and that boys under eighteen
years are kept away from the alleys.

MORBIDITY
STATISTICS

Ihe new law pertaining TO Morbid.
ity Statistics went into effect OH Nov
ember lst. Under its working the
office of DR.. @. Shultz, Secretary of
the local Board of Health, becomes the
repository OF vast array of classified
facts respecting the health of the COM
munity. The Secretary : report for the
last period shows two cases of erysi-
pelas. four cases of diphtheria. nine
cases of typhoid fever, one case of
chicken pox, one case of pneumonia.
The law provides that as soon as a
case regarded as communicable breaks
out the Attending physician must at
once report to the Secretary of the
local Board of Health, setting forth
along with the nature of the disease
the name of the patient. occupation,
country nativity, age, sex, color, ad
dress, county, date of onset, name of
householder. occupation of household
er, number of school children and
school. To facilitate the transmission
of this informatisn blank postal cards
furnished by the municipality are pro-
vided, so that all the busy physician
has to do is to fill in the data requir-
ed and mail the card. AT the expira-
tion of every seven days the Secretary
of the Board of Health in turn makes
his report to the State Department of
Health, also using specially prepared
blanks, which greatly facilitate the
WORK.
The list of diseases considered com
muniCable to be reported is very
large one. The more familiar diseases
on the list are cerebro-spinal menin-
gifts, chicken pox, ch olera, diphtheria,
dysentery, erysipelas. German meas
les, glanders, hydrophobis, malarial
fever. measles, mumps, pneumonia,
scarlet fever. small pox, tetauus, tub
erculosis, typhoid fever. typhus fever
and whoopin2 cough.
One OF the objects accomplished by
the new law as the result of the very
fall information sent in, will be to en-
able the State Department of Health
not only to locate every epidemic but
to trace the disease to its origin and
TO note its spread and development.
The regular reports sent in 10 the
State Department, too, when printed
in the newspapers as they ought to be.
will serve to keep the people posted
on the state of the public health and
