Mt. ST. Nary'S Items.

Mr.. Geo. Baker who for the past few
weeks has been on the sick list from a
severe attack of rheumatism is slowly
recovering. The members of the St.
Anthony's baseball club are glad to hear
he is recovering, as he is the main stand
by on the catcher's staff and his absence
would great loss and the position hard
t fill.
Mrs. William Scbold is at present on
the scklist.
Reports through the Philadelphia Rec
orl of March goth, state that the dam
a e caused by the fire at st. Joseph's
Fl spital, Philadelphia, amounted to near
S 900. We also learn that our friend,
Jp'eph McNulty, who is employed at the
hDspital had a narrow escape from being
b lrned to death in this fire. Joseph tells
u that no one was injured, but that all
who were at the time lodging in the
building lost everything they had.

INDIANS ARE DYING OFF.

As the buffalo vanished from the
Western plains, so is the red man
gradually disappearing through the
ravages of tuberculosis.
To save the Indian race from ex-
tinction by this disease, and yet lead
it into the ways of the white man, is
the task which officials of the Bureau
of Indian Affairs have undertaken.
Backed with adequate funds and
with corps of fighting medical ex-
pcrts, officials are confident that the
Indian race can be saved.
Almost beyond belief are the wide
spread ravages from tuberculosis
among the Indians. Just about a
quarter of a century ago, when the
white man undertook to civilize the
Indian, tuberculosis was an almost
unknown disease among that race.
Today the Indians are dying oft at
the rate of approximately a thousand
a year. OF all the tribes, none seem
t. be 80 susceptible to consumption
as the Sioux Indians, in South pa-
kota. Last year nearl y Il thousand
mrmbers of this tribe were afflicted
with the disease.
The change from primcval sur
roundings, when the Indian roamed
at will through the wilds of the forest
to his present mode of living, makes
him an easy victim. The Indians
live in unsanitary surrounding, and
huddle themselves together i'll one
room and without ventilation. They
taboo the cuspidor and prefer to ex-
prctorate on the floor.
Officials are determined to teach
the Indian the value Of sanitation,
personal cleanliness and other pre-
ycntive measures, with the view of
gradually cutting down the yearly
enormous death roll.

Committee.


The citizens of this place seem to real
ize more clearly the Importance of keep
ing their homes and surroundings in good
condition. Already this spring many old
fences and buildings have been either
repaired or torn down and replaced with
new.
An example of this may be seen by
walking up Altamont Avenue. Looking
to either side we find that fences have
been righted up, some torn away alto
gether and replaced with new. The
greatest improvement in this direction is
that on the property of the Misses Zim-
norman. The old board and paling fence
has been torn away and handsome wire
fence placed from W. Main street along
the Avenue to the Church of the Breth-
rem. Further improvements on this pro-
perty has been made by tearing away
the old barn, which we understand is one
of the oldest in town. Let the good work
continue.

A Suggestions.

In a few weeks Arbor Day will again
be observed by the Public and High
schools of the county. One of the princi-
pal features of the day is the planting of
tree or shrubbery of some kind. This
has been done at our public school grounds
until it begins to look crowded. We OBJ
serve that no great care is taken of what
has been placed there, dead trees being
in evidence.
We wish principally to call attention to
the rows of lockwood in front of the pub
lie school building. This was planted by
Mr.. John Landers shortly after the build
ing was occupied and was cared for by
him as long as he continued teaching.
1t grew and became very pretty, and woe
unto the scholar who was caught injuring
it in any manner. In latter years no at
tention has been given it, only at the
noon or recess hour when the pupils find
it an easy seat on which to sit and eat
their lunch or play upon. What remains
has lost much of its beauty and the great
er part has been killed.
We suggest that if any planting be
done this year, on the school ground
let more of the lockwood be planted IN
honor of him who planted the first. We
sugge3t further that what has been plant
ed be properly cared for and that the
pupils be instructed to care for the same
at all times.

Delinquent Subscribers.

The following, which has travelled so
far that its origin has been lost, is good
enough to be printed once more: An
editor who died of starvation was being
escorted to heaven by an angel who had
been sent out for that purpose. MAY
look at the other place before we ascend
to eternal happiness?" Easily" said
the angel. So they went below and
skirmished around, taking in the sights.
The angel lost sight of the editor and
went around to hades to hunt him up.
He was found sitting by furnace, fan
ming himself and gazing with rapture on
a lot Of people in the fire. There was a
sign on the furnace which said, "Delin-
quent Subscribers. Come" said the
angel, 1--WE must be going" "You go
on, said the editor ppm not going, this
is heaven enough for me-"
