BEAUTIFUL
DECORATIONS

The decorations at the Grove Pres
.byterian church on foot for month
or more pasta now practically com,
pleted and number of people have
already visited the church to take =
look at the improvements in order to
form an idea of what is the very lat
est or most modern in church decora-
Jions.
With the exception of a few touches
in the vicinity of the pulpit the main
auditorium is completed and the scat
folding has been removed. The Chapel
at the rear is also finished, although
in one of the small class rooms used
by the Sunday school the decorations
yet remain to be applied.
The decorations are in the hands of
Fred NJ. Bottcher. of Elmira, N. Y.
who served an apprenticeship under
and was employed ten years by H. F.
Dapplestein of New York, one of the
leading decorators of the country,
whose contracts during recent years
embraced decorations at the White
house, Washington, d. @. Naturally,
therefore, a very high degree of ex-
cellence would be associated with the
work done on the Grove church. The
contract has been carried through very
expeditiously and the quality of the
work speaks for itself In the matter
of color or shading alone would there
be any room for controversy even
among the most crticalAs pertains to
such qualities all those who do not
possess critical knowledge will justly
defer to the superior taste of the dec.
orator. However opinion may differ
as to some of the details all must be
impressed with the general effect,
which reveals that the master hand OF
an artist has been at work.
The new carpet arrived Saturday,
and will be laid during the present
week. The Ostermoor cushions are eX,
pected daily. The carpet is of terra
Gotta color, while the cushions, OF
velvet, are of a gold blown. No just
estimate of the decorations can be
formed until the carpet and cushions
are in place. The combined effect NAV
prove revelation.
Steps are being taken by the Grove
congregation preliminary to making
an additional and important improve
ment not contemplated at the st art
This consists in bringing the choir
down from its loft over the vestibule
and Installing it along with the pipe
organ, at the rear of the pulpit.
Whether the present organ will be
used or new one procured will be de.
termined little later.
This matter has been placed in the
hands of Architect j. H. Brugler, who
will produce plans for an enlarged
platform, that will afford room for the
organ and choir in addition to the
pulpit.

Save the Peach lrnn.

Il have had so many com plants
from people throughout Pennsylvania
about the loss of their peaches that |
wish the newspapers would tell the
owners of orchards that where their
fruit is dropping from trees to loosen
the earth aboutsthe trees and give each
one several buckets of water. That
will save their crops" said State
Zoologist Surface. DR.. Surface ex-
planned that all over the State people
are complaining that peaches are fall
ing, and the immediate watering must
be done. The fruit is falling because
the moisture goes to the leaves, he
says. He also says that he has receiv-
ed reports showing the peaches grown
on high lands are doing we'll and that
those on low lands are poor. He
ascribes.this to the fact that the cold
snap of last spring clung to the val
leys and not to the high lands.

Readings Busy Season.

Never in its history has the Sha-
way which includes the Oatawissa
branch. experienced such n reign of
prosperity as it IS at present, and with
the rolling equipment taxed to its ut
most capacity it is next to impossible
to keep yards and sidings from being
blocked almost continuously.
When the fact is taken into consid-
Grafton that July and August are gen.
orally the slack months this condition
of affairs is all the more remarkable.
The yard at Newberry is blocked al
most constantly, and it is nothing un-
usual for 500 cars to stand waiting
there for power to draw them to their
destination
All the regular crews that can be Sc
cured are called TO do extra service,
which the extra men outside Of the
legal time required for them to rest
are constantly on the go
Freight engineers who during this
season in previous years considered
themselves very lucky to draw 500 for
months wages are drawing as high
as $3.50, while firemen in many cases
are making 800.
z AT this season railroaders are gener-
ally plentiful, but there is now mark
ed scarcity, particularly OF firemen,
aud as IA result the officials are greatly
handicapped in their efforts to KEEP
things moving,
In order to facilitate matters crews
from the main line have been pressed
into service TO aid in cleaning up the
accumulated freight

PODDLER'S HELPER
BADLY BURNED

Arthur Cook, son of County Com
missioner Q. W. Cook, a puddler's
helper at the big mill, was very SER
iously burned last evening as the re-
suit or cinder tap exploding.
Arthur, who was on the night turn,
went on duty shortly after O'Clock.
The accident occurred about :45
O'Clock. The cinder tap being ready
for dumping the young man as was
his custom wheeled the carriage con-
tanning the semi liquid mass around
to one end of the furnace, where he
dumped it on the ground.
A small pool of water lay on the
earth, which was probably not observ-
ed by Mr.. Cook. At all events he tilt
ed the carriage and dumped the Gin
der out on the very spot where the
water lay. The result was a terrible
explosion, which caused loud report
and threw the molten cinder around
in every direction.
| Mr.. Cook was struck squarely in the
breast, the liquid cinder running down
over his abdomen and coming in con-
tact with his arm, literally roasting
his flesh in several large spots. His
face was also burned slightly. He was
hurled from his feet by the force of
the explosion and lay in al agony of
pain.
John English, the puddler of whom
Mr.. Cook was helper, was also burned
slightly as we'll as Charles Wuolrich, a
helper at another furance. These men,
however, were able to render assist
ance to the injured mau until others
gathered at the spot.
DR.. Cameron Shutlz was called to
the mill, who treated the injured man,
relieving his pain somewhat, after
which he was driven TO the home of
his father, in Valley township. DR..
Shultz last evening stated that the in
jury while severe, aud necessarily very
painful is not likely to result in any
complications but III all probability
will yield to ordinary treatment and
that in due time the man will be
about aagin.

The general drought prevailing
throughout the country is quite keen
ly felt in the vicinity of Danville,
where unless rain falls soon the corn
and the late potato crop will be SER
iously affected.
While it seems only = short time
since rain has fallen yet it has been
many weeks since we lave had "A good
soaking rain in this locality. The
ground in the fields is parched. The
corn at many places is actually wilt
ing aud the potatoes look bad Nearly
all the small streams are dry or are
very low
The present is very critical period
for the corn, as it is just now forming
oars. Copious rains are needed during
the next couple of weeks in order to
insure a good crop or even an average
Rain is also needed to help along the
pasture aud the crops Of garden truck.
Owing to the lack Of rain the river
is falling at a rapid rate. 1t is already
lower than for long time past

Low Water in Mahouipg Creek,

Keeping pace with the river, which
is dropping lower and lower, with each
succeeding day, Mahoning creek has
become reduced to a mere rivulet =; the
channel is practically empty and the
modicum of water that remains lies
in Shiny pools on the muddy bottom.
1t is very rarely, indeed, that the
stream has been known to reach a
point as low as the present. 1t indie
ates that the drought prevailing is
wide spread and that it has become
much more of m a than was sup
posed.
The Reading ron Works depends to
some extent upon Mahoning creek for
water. General Manager H. 7. Hecht
yesterday stated that the works are
not embarrassed by any deficiency in
the water supply, although, the dam
is dry. There are other sources of wat
er that are available at the works,
among them being the artesian we'll
sunk just south of the mill several
years ago. This we'll, which is 4S0
feet deep, at all times yields an un-
failing supply of water.
