Property Being DESTROYED.

Farmers residing along the PhiladeI-
phia q Reading Railway and the
Notheru Central Railroad between
Shamokin and Sunbury are complain
ing bitterly about the actions of illeg-
al car riders, who while the trains are
passing their homes stand on the cars
and deliberately throw stones and coal
through the windows, thus damaging
their property and endangering the
lives eff the inmates of the houses.
The farmers say that every day
windows are smashed by large stones
and women and children retreat to
safe corners when freight train
passes.
Not only DO the Illegal car riders de-
stroy the farmers property but rail
road men say that there is hardly "A
switch light between Shamokin and
Sunbury that is not destroyed or dam
aged.
The farmers declare that if the il
legal car riders continue to destroy
their property and endangeringtheIlives
of residents along the line Of the rail
roads that they will appeal to the au-
thorities for assistance.

Will Patrol Tracks.

The Reading railway company has
inaugurated plan through which it
can save its property from damages
and destruction. Commencing this
week track watchmen were placed
along the entire main lines, covering
the road east as far as Tamaqua and
west to Williamsport. They travel in
relay system, patrolling this i'm
mediate vicinity as follows One starts
at Carbon Run and PAGES to Big Noun
lain, the next from Big Mountain to
Excelsior and so on along the whole
route between the points named above.
Upon reaching telegraph Office they
must report to the operator there, time
Of arriving and leaving that point, and
the operators along the line make
report of the watchman' movements
to headquarters at Tamaqua hourly.
Thus is a systematic record of their
doings kept up. The whereabouts of
every one on the many beats is known
at all times and just where he can be
found when wanted The object Of
this as stated above is 70 protect the
tracks and the property along them,
the company stating that it is not go
ing TO run any risks of depredations
being committed, but viii try TO pre-
vent such from happening.

POLLUTED WATERS
SAYS DR.. dixon

Health Commissioner Samuel c..
Dixon in speaking of the work of pre-
serving the purity of the waters Of the
State in fulfillment of the duty laid
upon him by the act of April %, 1908,
said
"A lamentable and tremendous
amount of needless suffering, expense
and death annually result from the
wanton pollution of the streams Of
Pennsylvania among those individuals
dependent upon these sources Of sup
ply for drinking water Tens and even
hundreds of communities hang in the
balance and at any time may have an
epidemic of typhoid fever stalking
through their midst and decimating
their numbers.
Public and private corporations,
however, even when earnestly inclin-
ed, are often limited in their powers
to prevent sewage contamination of
the source of water supply
After years of affliction and at a
terrific cost in human life, it has fin
ally dawned upon the people that a
higher authority than the municipal
ity must grapple with the problem and
afford remedy.
The chief engineer of the depart
ment, f. Herbert Snow, and his as
s;g+ontg ara ,,nv,- +ra y-ar.ircr at-ary- 1,a p Z
of the State, making examinations of
sewerage systems and water supplies
and collecting data with respect TO the
quality of all of the waters in Penn
sylvania More than this is being
done, sources of pollution and menaces
which can be abated at once are re-
ported to the commissioner and in
many cases a request on his part to
the owner of the premises is sufficient
10 cause a removal of the menace. The
number of letters of encouragement
and cooperation in this kind OF re
form received by the commissioner
splendidly illustrates the willingness
of the citizens of the State to do what
is right In a few cases owners viii
fully refuse to do away with the cause
of the disease, in which event they are
being brought into court or forced to
comply with the law.
Another important feature Of the
commissioner work is appealing to
the municipalities, namely, the utiliz-
ing free Of cost to them of the services
Of the engineering department in con-
sultation and advice respecting the in
stallation of new water works and
sewer systems and the extensions Of
existing systems This engineering
service does not interfere with the
work of the engineer in private prac-
tice, but increases it. The State de-
partment gives free of cost the very
best engineering advice procurable,
which has already resulted in saving
to municipalities large sums OF money
by obviating costly mistakes In carry
ing out the general advice and sug-
gestions of the State department, the
municipalities must employ their own
engineers, but before plans are finally
adopted they pass for approval to the
health commissioner.

Horse FALLS AND
FREAKS SHAFTS

y curious chain of condolences were
noted on Mill street Saturday after
noon. They were all brought about by
an automobile from Bloomsbury. which
by the way i'm all its relations was
very orderly and we'll managed and
did nothing to merit notoricty.
ON Friday the sight Of this automo-
bile caused the horse Of Hon r.. S..
zimmerman to cut up some capers,
which resulted in the animal falling
ON the pavement and breaking the
shafts.
ON Saturday afternoon at about the
same hour the same automobile at
nearly the same spot was making its
way along when another horse took
fright and fell on the pavement break
ing one of the shafts. The horse that
did the stunts ON Saturday belonged
to Jesse Shannon and his performance
was worth witnessing. He was hitch
ed in front Of the meat market At
the sight of the auto he reared and
then coming down on his feet slipped
on the pavement and fell lie was
agile, however, and the same moment,
sprang to his feet again. To quiet the
horse J. II. Hunt, the druggist, ran
out to catch him by the bride, but the
animal with a mighty plunge forward
severed the harness in half a dozen
places and jumped clear out of the
shafts. The tie strap also snapped il
two but the horse was caught before
me managed to get away. In addition
to the badly damaged harness one OF
/ the shafts was found to be broken.

had his neck broken while driving

severe jolt of the wagon. The accid-

stopped, when a driver in the rear Of
Klopp's wagon went mp to discover
the cause Of the delay. He found Klopp
sitting bolt upright on the seat, his
hands clinched on the reins, but dead
His head was hanging Imply ON his
breast. and it was further found that
his neck was broken. The road where
Klopp was driving was quite stony
