The state board of health has issu-
ed a request that May l be observed
as cleaning up day all over the state.
The suggestion ought to be needed.
People are inclined to grumble about
the rules and regulations imposed by
the state board of health as interior
ing with private rights. The fact is
however, that the state board OF
health makes no rule or suggestion
except those designed to benefit the
people as a whole. More attention
paid to the health board regulations
and less kicking about little annoy
ances would be better for all the peo-
pie of all the state.

EXPLOSION IN SURFACE SEWER
North Adams Boy Dropped Match
Through Grating.


North Adams, April 1S.-Fred and
Edward Vaudeville, Clark Andrew
and James Lyons, four boys, were
standing at the corner of Gallup and
Union streets Sunday evening at 905,
preparatory to separating for the
night Fred Vaudeville lighted a
cigarette and dropped match
through a grating into the surface
sewer, They all parted company in
stantly, for there was an explosion of
gas that blew two of them out into
Union street. another one into a
neighboring backyard, while the
fourth went up Gallup street. There
is a brook that runs across Gallup
street and empties In to this surface
sewer, while the gas main goes up
Gallup street Apparently there was
a leak in the immediate vicinity of
where the gas main and the brook
cross. The boys declare that flames
shot out of the man hole and they
have singed eyebrows and hair to
prove that They say that another
sheet of flame shot up the brook. A
portion of the street cayed in and the
flames shot up into the air through
the opening. The nearby houses were
shaken and someone turned in fire
alarm from box II. There was moth
ing for the firemen to do. except to
notify the gas company. Superinten-
dent Stewart of the gas company said
that 1t would be necessary to shut of
the gas supply for the night from
those who were supplied by the Gal
lup street main, None of the boys
were badly injured.

The federal court has declared un'
constitutional the Oklahoma law
prohibiting the piping of natural gas
out of that state, holding that such
prohibition is in conflict with the
interstate commerce laws. Would
the same principle of law apply to
the transmission of electrical energy?
-Brattleboro Reformer.
Maine and New Hampshire have,
we believe, enacted laws to prevent
the transmission of electric energy
out Of the state. and in Vermont the
matter has been seriously considered
Perhaps a good round state tax would
be as effective in keeping power at
home as prohibition of its being
sent out.

STRANGELY INCONSISTENT,
PASTOR SAYS OF WILSON.
Criticises Governors Attitude
on Local Onion Question.

In the course of a letter to the Pub
lie Ledger, OF Philadelphia, in which
he severely criticises Governor Wilson
for his attitude toward local option.
the Rev. o. P. caches, of the Rights
town IN. j. Baptist Church. says:
HE is strangely inconsistent when
It comes to the local option question.
He believes in the principle of local
option. He thinks every community
should have the right to decide for it,
self the question of license. He says,
I am in favor Of local option
But he puts himself on record that
he is against political action. He says,
But the questions involved are social
and moral, not political, and are not
susceptible to being made parts of a
party program.
This is o a high or statesmanlike
position to take. No leader should
hesitate to say. Whatever rights belong
to the people we affirm hat right
should be given to Them Anything
lower than that is political or moral
cowardice.'

LETTER CARRIERS DO NOT
PAY FARES ON TROLLEYS.
But Government Settles With
Company on Contract Basis.

What happens to tie letter-carriers
under the new puDlic utilities law
which permits the Public Service rail-
way to collect fares from firemen and
policemen"
inns is a question that has been
heard frequently since the new law
went into effect on May J.
The letter-cairiers do not have to
dig deep in their pockets every day
like their fellows of the police and fire
departments, but the government pays
the full five cents for them on a con-
tract basis. The number of rides taken
by the men each day are computed,
multiplied by the time of the contract
and then by five, giving a lump total
which is paid by the government. This
system of settling with the trolley COM
pany is comparatively new, having
beer commenced In July, 1910.
The passport of the letter-carrier 10
his mail pouch, not his uniform.
Without this insignia he has to pay
his fare. AS the postmen are not al
lowed to take their bags home with
them at night they have to a their
fare to and from work just as other
business men do.
Before last July the government
bought tickets for the letter-carriers,
distributing them to the men. This
was found to be too cumbersome and
wasteful a method. and the contract
plan was substituted.

While she was riding neal her home
her attention was attracted by loud
growls behind her. She turned and
found that ner big ST. Bernard dog
was engaged in a fight With a great
collie. the pet of H. j.. Frey, OF Holly
wood avenue, East Orange. Sprinsing
from the saddle she tore the dogs
apart, dragging off the st. Bernard by
the collar.
AS she was about to renount her
horse the collie sprang suddenly at
her. knocking her down almost beneath
the feet Of her restless mount. AS her
scream of terror rang out the two big
dogs sprang at each other n fought
desperately right across her body, their
fangs swapping above her face.
Attracted by the cutlery men rushed
to her rescue and drove the dogs apart
The girl was found to be badly bitten

to a doctor in an automobile.

TRENTON, May s.-As a result of
the food com laint sent to Governor
Wilson a week ago by eighty-four of
the nurses and attendants at the New
Jersey State Hospital for the Insane,
this city, there is a split in the working
force of the institution. Half of the

should have been ta,-en over their
heads, declaring they are always ready
to remedy untoward conditions. They
also decla ; that II ~ Tad no knowl-
edge that the complaint was to be for
warded to the governor.
DR.. Henry A Cotton, medical director.
and former superintendent Samuel T
Schley. the warden, ar also incensed
and are e~ndeavoring to ascertain the
identity of the employee who reported
that they were out of town when an
effort was made to communicate with
them relative to the original complaint.
They declare they were in their Offices
at the time,
In view of repeated complaints and
explanations at the institution 1t Is not
unlikely that an investigation OF the
whole affair will be ordered at the next
meeting Of the board of managers.

A band of daring burglars who WIS.,

The thieves visited six homes in the
neighborhood, failed to gain entrance
to two, but forced their way into the
other four and departed with booty
valued at only 5000 in the aggregate.
Five of the six houses are in the same
block. Another robbery in Monroe
street is believed to be the work of the
same gang.
The places visited were the homes of

two baby rims and $40 in cash. Philip
