FIRE IN BERWICK SCHOOL

Six hundred pupils lives were en-
dangered in the Berwick High School
building. when fire occurred in the
supply room at about II o'clock Mon
day morning. Presence of mind and
quick action on the part of the teach
ers and their pupils alone saved a
panic, the probable destruction Of the
building, and maybe "a terrible loss of
life. As it was the flames were ex-
tiDguished with loss of about $500.
John Haas. teacher of the sixth grade
of what is known as the "old wing
of the building noticed small bit of
smoke come curling through under the
door of the supply room, which opens
into his room. He quietly informed
his pupils that they would lie allowed
to 20 home for the rest of the morn.
ing and as is the custom when dis.
missing he had them march out of the
room and building Then lie went up
stairs aud told Prof. Sigman, the prin-
cipal, Of the fire, and he quickly saw
that al! OF the 600 pupils were dismiss
ed However, before they could all be
gotten out smoke commenced to fill
the building and there was cry of
fire. The pupils remained orderly,
however, and all got out of the build.
ing without any undue excitement.
Some of the larger boys assisted the
two teachers in carrying water and
throwing it into the room. In the
meantime an alarm of fire had been
turned in, and the fire department re-
sponded, but its aid was unnecessary.
The fire was due to an overheated
furnace and tablets, pencils and other
upplie were destroyed.

NEW JUDICIAL DISTRICT

The Selinsgrove Times states that
there is much discussion over the pro-
position of combining the judicial dis.
trict of Union and Snyder counties
with that of Northumberland In the
Union-Snyder district there is scarce
ly enough business to keep law judge
busy, while the two judges now in
Northumberland county could readily
take care of the additional business
from Union and Snyder.
Should the districts be combined by
the legislature at its coming session it
would probably 90 into effect before
the judicia! election neEt year. Sny-
der and Union are normally Republi.
can counties and Northumberland is
evenly divided, so consolidation
would likely throw the balance in
favor of the Repu 1licans Both judges

CHEAPER MEATS
SOON To COME

An expert upon grain. feed and
meat prices gives this explanation of
the reason for Che present high prices
and predicts that In few months de.
cided reductions will come In the
price of meats and cereals
"The cost Of living depends upon
the individual himself and to q great
extent upon supply and demand For
five years previous to the present crop
of oats we had In the United States
very small crops. In these same years
our corn crops were not large and u
few of the yeats very small On ac.
count of these conditions there were
less cattle and hogs fed because the
farmer did not have more than enough
grain tn care for his regular stock or,
in other words, tn feed the horses,
mules and stock necessary for farm
purposes The demand for meat of all
kinds was enormous because in those
yeats we were at the height of pros
porous times and hence the supply
being short, of course, the prices went
up rapidly. For example. one year
ago the United States department of
agriculture estimated the number of
food animals Oh farms in the United
States on January ], 1910. This esti-
mate shows that on January /, 1910,
there were G,365, 600 less hogs and g.
l00 600 less cattle than the previous
year. While these enormous decreases
have occurred in the production of
hogs there has been an increase in
our population of over one million. "
The expert talks the position that tie
enoromus crops mean lower prices and
that many farmers have turned to rails
ing pork and beef
The present wholesale market has a
downward tendency which, with the
conditions above named, the expert
claims, means that eventually lower
prices will prevail.

MAY GET AN ARMORY

The prospect of an armory being

sufficient to 90 anead at once with the
construction of aTmOries Tor all If the

ura will be asked to appropriate a sum
OF 81, 900, 600 Tor construction, $50, 600
for maintenance and $40 900 to meet
the deficit os maintenance charges this
year.
This request will be urged on the
grolnd that il will not only enable
the commonwealth to complete its
building program, Int will be advant-
ageOus because in many instances.
through donations of land, the state
will receive considerable more value
thar it invests in building

ing purposes is based on program to
construct an armory for eyeGy organ
