~lTTREDGE was fortunate in hav-
~ ing a sense of humor; it helped
him through the horrors of his
first night at the depot, which he
passed with the scum of Paris thieves,
beggars. Migrants, the miserable crop
of Saturday-night police takings, all
herded into one foul room on filthy
hunks so close together that a turn
either way brought a mar into direct
contact with his neighbor.

Another Good Road Plan.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Your readers viii
probably come TO the conclusion
that the public roads problem IN
Madison county has everlasting life,
so / will suggest an opinion. Thsre
are great many different ideas 40
to the best method Of keeping in re-
pair the public roads OF this county
and / sm satisfied there is betsfc
way than the present one.
This problem is hard one and
indeed should not be given up until
il is solved. Some advocate a move
rigid enforcement OF the law
"compel men to work eight days
or pay five dollars. " To this | ann
very much opposed, The idea OF
taking toys out Of school or men
off OF their farms TO work on public
roads without compensation is too
unjust for q set Of honest men To
consider. We have a one dollar
copitation tax, aud / am sure that
is enough. A five dollar road tax
is unequal and Unjust. Besides, thel C
are a great many men not able 10
pay IT, hence have to work eight
days per annum in prison, where no
offence has been committed.
Now the plan is the question. l
believe no person should be requir-
ed to work on the roads without
pay. The county commiss oners
should levy tax sufficient for the
purpose and use it in 3 way they
find to tie best aud if the people in
any part Of the county where there
is material wanted to improve their
public roads just get the county
commissioners to designate a specias
tax road district and build roads to
suit themselves 'others seeing tneir
good" roads might be constrained,
etc. V, +. b.

ODD ACCIDENTS SEND
THREE TO HOSPITAL
Groom Stick May Cause Man to
Lose Sight of One Eye

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 22.-Poe's
Demon of Perversity was hard at
work in the northwestern part of the
city, and three persons were taken to
the Womens Homeopathic hospital.
suffering from three curious accidents.
Anthony Hand of 1920 Oakdale
street ran into the kitchen of his home
and stepped upon the end of a broom.
The other end flew up and struck him
in the right eye. According to the
affected and he may lose the sight of
his eye. Hand told the doctors he had
stepped on the broom many times be-
fore, and it had never flown up, even
an inch. He said he had been in many
accidents and always escaped, and that
it was rather hard that a common
broom should injure him so badly.
A few minutes later William Pun
Miss, II years old, of 2163 William
street was brought to the institution.
He is a blacksmith's apprentice, and
was leading a horse along Dauphin
street when he passed a German band.
The music made the animal back
away. 1t reared high and when it
came down both fore feet fell on Pun
mis-, crushing him severely. The doc
tors say the boy has internal injuries
and may not live.
But it remained to William H. Hard
ing of Fifteenth street, above Columbia
avenue, to be hurt in a still more un-
usual manner.
Harding passed a telegraph pole at
Twentieth and Dauphin streets, right
outside the hospital. About six feet
from the ground on the pole was a
white placard, Charged" Harding
puzzled a few minutes as to the mean
ing of the card. Then he touched the
pole. Half a second later he did a
double somersault landing near the
car tracks of the street. A passerby
picked him up and in tones far from
gentle remarked: "Why on earth did
you touch the pole after you saw the
sign?" Il wanted to see if it wasn't
a joke put up by boys was the an
swer. Attendants came from tAe hos
pital wearily and took him in. He
was discharged later.

HAY FEvERERS ORGANIZE
KERCHEW ASSOCIATION
Any Individual Owning a Sneeze
May Join

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 22.-The Hay few
erers, forming a distinct cult, opened
their official season in st. Louis to-
day If you happen to sneeze be-
tween now and the latter part of Oc-
tober you are entitled to register as
one of the elect. Anything half way
resembling a cold in the head enables
you to qualify.
1t requires a substantial income to
cure the disease, as 1t puts one, in
many instances, to more expense than
a motor car.
It is popular supposltion that hay
fever is caused by pollen blown from
plants, and that only mountain air or
seashore breezes will benefit the suf-
ferer. Consequently the exodus of
sneeZers either is to the mountains or
the coasts of the salt sea.
However, the popularity of this dis
ease is increasing and st. Louis hay
feverers are even more numerous than
usual this season. The date of the sea-
sons opening is fixed by the United
States Hay Fever association, and no
sneezes, sniffles or similar capers are
recognized as official until on or after
August 16.

INSANE CROWD ASYLUM
TO DOUBLE CAPACITY

PITTSBURG, Aug. 22.-Dr. Frank
Woodbury. Of Philadelphia, secretary
of the state lunacy commission, and
President Francis J, Torrance of the
state board of charities, inspected Dix
mont asylum for the insane, where
997 patients are quartered, although the
buildings were erected to hold maxi
mum number of 500. Conditions in the
institution, bad as they are, would be
much worse, according to Mr.. Wood
bury, were it not for excellent man
agement. Steps will be taken at once
to secure the removal of at least 100
patients to other institutions.
"Dixmont is the worst problem in
the state" said Mr.. Woodbury. tonight
ut is more badly crowded than any of
the six institutions for insane main
tained by Pennsylvania. The last legis-
lature appropriated a total of only
81. .0OO, 900 for maintenance and improve
ments, and the sum is woefully made
uuate. What will become of matters
is hard to tell The attorney general
will at once be asked to restrain the
courts from sending any more patients
to Dixmont, as was done in the case
of Danville asylum in 1898 and as Is
now the case with the Harrisburg hos
pital for the insane
