Miss Emma Welsh.

The many friends of Miss Emma
Welsh, of this place, who knew of her
intended trip to California to see her
mother and brother, and also to attend
the international Epworth League
Convention to be held in July, at
Seattle, Wash, will regret to here that
the trip will not be taken, on account
of the sudden death of her mother,
which occurred the second of May.
Miss Welsh intended to start about
the 30th of May, so the sad news brings
her very bitter disappointment. Miss
Emma's father died when she was but
six years of age. leaving the mother in
feeble health, unable to care for her
children, but Emma was given to her
fathers sister, Mrs. Robert Welsh, of
Keating Summit, with whom she has
made her home and been cared for as
their own child; but the natural desire
of mother and daughter to see each
other once more in this life, has been
thwarted by death. She has the sim
cere sympathy of all her friends. She
has gone home to visit with her aunt
for while.

Keep the flies out of dwellings. Get

on guard all the time against them
Keep screens over articles of food.
don't let flies get near the pantry,
kitchen or dining room. Have covers
for all open dishes.
Be careful about the garbage can.
Don't let flies collect around it. Keep
the cover on all the time. You will
starve many of them to death if you
do. You'll poison yourself and your
neighbors if you don't
IL you're a livery man or keep a
horse, be double careful. Horse man

for typhoid flies.
Keep horse manure in covered bar

Be careful about having barrels of
rain water around the house. Keep
these covered and put in a spigot, so
that the cover will not have to be TAX
en- off. If in doubt, call on the health
officer.
Look out for decaying vegetables.
Typhoid flies thrive off these.
Be doubly careful about keeping
flies out of the sick room. They are
likely not only to bring complications
of new diseases, but to carry the in
valid's disease to many others.
Keep baby away from the flies
They are apt to give it cholera in

Kill or drive out any flies which may
find their way into the house. Show
them no mercv.
Look carefully after cuspidors. This
to apply to hotels, railroad stations,
stores and other places where many
people congregate.
Use lime and disinfectants where
there is any decayed stuff, manure,
ash piles or other filth. Disinfectants
are cheap.
If your neighbors are careless in
these particulars, call their attention
to it, or notify the city health author

concerned in this.
If there are sluggish streams or
ponds near you, you must keep dou-
BILE watch, for the flies breed fast in
such Localities.
Never drink milk, coffee or water in

Found Dead at St. Marys.

Special to Press.
Shortly after midnight, on Sunday,
May 9th, the crew on pusher engine
1866, upon returning to st. Marys coal
shutes after assisting 2nd No. 92, found
the body of Harry Nelson on east bound
track at that point. 1t appears that
the man had been dead for some time.
His hat, lamp and gloves were found
on the end of coal car on north side
of the track and it is thought that he
was struck by train, but at the time
of this writing it is impossible to state
positively how his death occurred. Mr..
Nelson was 20 years of age, single and
resided at st. Marys. 1t will be re-
membered that he took the place of
Mr.. Winglebaugh, who was killed at
the same place last winter. Coroner
Wilson took charge of the remains.

Railroad News.

More than 1900 employees of the
Pennsylvania Railroad were receiving
pensions from the Company on Jan. 1,
1909, and the payments authorized to
be made to them during the year of
1908 amounted to $544, ,246.08 Since
the Pension Department was establish
ed in 1900, the sum of So, 445, 1877 has
been paid to retired employees. These
striking figures are brought out in the
annal report of the Pension Depart
ment of the Company, which has just
been issued.
When its pension system was inaug-
urated by the Pennsylvania Railroad
for the purpose of providing for its
employees in their old age, the cum of
$500, 10000 was appropriated for the
first years payments. This SUM was
continued for two years, and in 1902
increased to $500 100000 per annum.
In 1907 it was raised to $600,0O0.00.
This does not include the operating ex-
penses of the department, which are
also paid by the Company, and which
in 1908 amounted to S5,36947.
All employees, no matter of what
rank, receive pension allowances on
relatively equal terms. For every year
of service rendered the Company, a
retired employe is paid one per cent
of his average salary for the ten years
Immediately preceding his retirement.
In other words, man who has worked
for the Company fifty years, and who
received an average annual salary of
81 900 90 the last ten years of active
service, receives a pension of $4,000 a
year.
A total of 367 employees were retired
on pensions in 1908, while 211 men
who were already on the pension list
died during the year. The number of
retired employees on December 31st,
1908 was 2,176 or 156 more than at the
close of 1907. The average age of those
receiving pensions is 73 years and 8
months, while the Oldest employee on
the list attained the age of 90 years in
1908.

That the 500 Line, South Shore and
the Chicago division of the former
road contemplate joint operation of
the traffic department of these systems
in Superior is indicated in the regular
monthly bulletin issued by the traffic
department of the Soo,a copy of which
was received here yesterday.
J. d. Morrissey for several years gen

this city is named in similar capacity
for the 500 Line in the bulletin.
When seen concerning the matter,
Mr.. Morrisey stated he had not been
given any official notice of being ap-
pointed to the place. He said he did
not know anything further than is
given in the monthly bulletin of the
500.
1t has been rumored for some time
that the three lines of railroad men

here about the middle of July at which
time the 500 expects to have trains

A Great Success.

The May Carnival and benefit ball at
the opera house last evening was
greater success than the management
expected. The large ball room was
literally packed until late hour. The
beautifully rendered flower drill by the
handsome little lad 3, the fancy dane
ing by the lads and lassies upon the
stage and the crowning of the Queen,
concluding with the May pole dance,
were indeed beautiful and Justify ap-
plauded by the immense audience.
The program was concluded at an
early hour, when dancing promptly
commenced and kept up until two
o'clock. Prof L. S. Fisk's orchestra
delighted all the dancers and the dane
ing space was crowded until late. The
ladies of Emmanuel Church served
substantial refreshments to the large
party. which were eagerly purchased.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thos. Trotter, for whom
the benefit was given, were assisted to
the opera house and enjoyed the sight
for couple of hours.
The management desires to tender
thanks to all who assisted in making
the entertainm ent a success and are
pleased to announce about $S5. 90, clear
of all expense. Thank you, great, big
hearted friends; your generosity is the
true christian spirit.
