Mrs. Samuel j. Nurss and her two
yesr-old son Charles, of Meadville, Pa,
are dead as the result OF a gasoline ex-
plosion in their home last Friday morn
ing. Mrs. Nurss was not feeling well
and she laid down in the bedroom shortly
after finishing her housework. The
baby, in its play, found match and
lighted it, the flame communicating to a
pan of gasoline in which the mother had
been washing some fabrics. The child
was instantly enveloped in flames and its
screams brought Mrs. Nurss to the room.
She made an effort to put out the fire
with her hands and in doing so her
clothing ignlted. With the baby in her
arms she ran from the house and her
cries for help brought several neighbors
to the yard. They succeeded in smoth-
ering the flames with quilts, Both the
mother and child were frightfully burned
aud were removed to Spencer hospital,
where the baby died Friday night. The
mother died Saturday morning. Mr..
Nurss is an employe of the Meadyille
Electric Traction Company. Mrs. Nurss
was a niece of Hiram Norton, of West
Hickory, this county, and was frequent
visitor there. She was aged So years and

RESIDENTS of Sheridan Center, N. Y,
believe they have found cheap and ei-
fective means of betlering the roads in
that section in the use ofs salt solution.
The idea originated with Henry Shelly,
the postmaster, who also runs an ice
cream emporium there and who discov-
cred that where he dumped the salt water
from his ice cream freezers on the road
passing the postoffice the dust is laid and
the road improved. AS a result of his
enthusiasm carload of salt has been
purchased and the experiment will be
tried. This may open new use for salt
water from oil wells, but at any rate it
shows the general interest manifested in
the good movement that has resulted in
general use of oil on highways this year
in 80 many states.

THE Superior Court, in special session
Wednesday at Philadelphia, handed down
decision of importance to every munich
paity in the State of Pennsylvania, Un-
der the decision the constitutionality of
the eight hour day law, which regulates
municipal work, was affirmed, the case
having been appealed from Allegheny
County. Under this decision it will be
illegal for contractors on municipal work
to require their employees to work more
than eight hours day. Heretofore the
length of the working day has been up to
the contractor. Under the new law, the
lsborer employed on municipal contract
may recover overtime for every minute
he works over eight hours in a day.

The Proposed New School Code of
Pennsylvania.

The July issue of The Pennsylvania
School Journal is most interesting and
valuable number. 1t is probably the
most important issue of this periodical -
now in its fiity-ninth volume-that has
ever been sent out to its subscribers, con-
tanning, as it does, the full text of the
Proposed New School Code of Pennsyl-
vania, for which the School Authorities
of the State desire the widest publicity
and the most fair-minded discussion.
This Code was prepared by very COM
petent Educational Commission, appoint
ed by Governor Stuart under resolution
passed by the Legislature of 1907. 1t has
been carefully revised upon the basis of
the discussions and suggestions made
during the legislative session of 1909, and
is believed to be an embodiment OF the
Legislation needed by the School System
OF Pennsylvania at this time. 1t should
be read and studied with care by every
intelligent friend of general education in
the State. Persons desiring it or extra
copies of it can obtain them by addressing
"The Pennsylvania School Journal, Lam
caster, Pa" Single copies, postpaid, Is
cents; seven copies, Sl.OO.

THE governments chemists have been
conducting an Investigation into the con-
tents of large number of concoctiOns
which are sold as remedies for the ills of
man and find that there are over 200
which contain slchol The sale of these
mixtures by druggists will not hereafter
be permitted unless they take out a
government license costing $25 per year.
The booze contained in these decoctions
is out of proportion to the other ingre-
dients, and it is the purpose to prohibit
the sale of them except as alcoholic
liquors, as it is believed by the treasury
officials that many of the decoctions are
thus compounded in order to evsde the
stringent liquor laws in "dry" territory
The new ruling will have a tendency tO
put those persons "wise" who have been
in the habit of taking a "litte for the
stomach's sake" and that they had better
take the straight goods" if they feel the
need.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intlamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumblng sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed deafness is the result, and un-
less the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored TO its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condl-
tion of the mucous surfaces.

Killed in Daylight HOld.up.

killed by highwsymsn last Saturday
morning about 1000 o'clock while acting
| as guard to paymsster +. NJ. Brown, who
was driving to the Widnoon Coal Co.'s
mines near Lawsonhsm, Clarion county,
having in his possession nearly $4,000
with which to pay off the miners. James
Corbet was also member of the party
and was in buggy with Brown, the
victim, Craig, following in another rig a
few rods in the rear. As the party was
passing over wooded portion of the road
a masked man stepped from concealment
and ordered halt, at the same time firing
a shot from his revolver. The two men
jumped out of their buggy to the opposite
side of the road. The highwaymen then
opened fire on Craig, who was approach
ing, and who returned the fire after the
first shot at him. The bandit then shot
again and disappeared in the woods.
Craig fell lieless out of his vehicle, being
shot through the heart. No adequate
description of the murderer could be
given by the men. Bloodhounds were
put on the track but without avail. A
detail of the State constabulary is scour-
ing the country, but the chances of effect
ing capture are not encouraging.
Craig leaves his wife and six children.
His residence was near Mahoning, Arm
strong county, and he was aged 43 years.

State Forest, Fish and Game Com
missioner Whipple, of New York, has
issued the following notice to people who
go into the Adirondscks for their vaca-
tion; it will apply equally to vacation
lists in the Pennsylvania woods: ~ wish
that every person going into the forests
OF this state this summer would have in
mind every moment the terrible destruc-
ton caused by forest fires in Canada and
the West, where the loss of forests will
already reach into the millions this sea-
son. We are we'll organized to fight the
fires this year, but despite that, mo-
ments carelessness on the part of some
might start fire which might sweep our
forests and destroy thousands of acres OF
our great preserve. l hope that every
visitor to any place of woodland in the
state will remember to be as careful
about fire as he would be in his own
house, and even more so, for forest fire
is easily started and hard to subdue. Let
every man, woman and child think of
this when in the woods and help us 10

DEMOCRAT LEADER
 UNDER FALSE GOlORS
Trying to Head a Movement Away
 From Republican Party.

The discovery was made yesterday that a well known democratic politi elan, in fact the most active Of all the democratic politicians, is. working with a curious lever to start landslide
 A gentleman, a republican from the east, who is in the city and has no interest in the outcome of the present campaign than his interest in repubH- can success generally. told one of the leading republican workers that the situation seemed to him to be a seri- ous one. Said he: If you hope to sue ceed you have got to go some. The re publicans have gone crazy over the ini- tiative and referendum. I was just talking to one or two of them. not a minute ago and one said that he had been a lifelong republican; he had never voted a democratic ticket in his life, but he could stay with the party no longer It was with the greatest regret that he found it necessary to cut loose from the party of his fath- CTS but his conscience required that he should vote for the democratic can didates for delegates to the constitu- tiOnal convention
 Now" added the eastern republi- can, you got to do something to bring these republicans back into line"
 The republican worker asked the name of the two republicans who with pain were about to leave the party. His informant did not know but he had been talking to them at the corner of Center and Washington street. The republican worker proposed going there to see if they were there yet They did so and the eastern republican eagerly pointed out the two repubi- cans
 One of them was the famous demo cratic politician whose hat has been hung in every corner of the court house and the other was a well known demo crat from the country who has been in almost every democratic county convention held in this county in the last twenty years.
