getting worse, l couldn't sleep nights

AS an investment in the health OF
their members, four large fraternal
orders. two international labor unions
and one of the largest insurance COM
panies In the United States have es-
lished sanitoria for the treatment
Of tuberculosis. according to a state
ment issued by the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis. The Royal League, the
first fraternal order to establish a
sanatorium. conducts a hospital for
its tuberculosis members at Black
Mountain. The Modern Woodmen Of
America conduct one at Colorado
Springs; the Workmen's Circle. one
at Liberty, N. Y, and the Independent
Order of Foresters have one at Rain
bow Lake, N. Y, and will soon open a
second one at San Francisco, Cal The
International Typographical union has
since 1898 conducted a sanatorium at
Colorado Springs. and the Interna-
tional Printing Pressmen and Assist
ants Union of America has recently
opened a new institution at Rogers
vile, Tenn. A leading life insurance
company is now erecting a sanator-
ium at Mt. McGregor. N. Y, which will

HUNDREDS KILLED
WHEN DAM BREAKS
DAM OF BAYLEss PULP & PAPER
CO. BURSTS ONE MILE NORTH
OF AUSTIN, PA.
NEARLY 1000 ARE DEAD. 1000
PERSONS ARE HOMELESS.
Fire Sweeps the Ruins and Scores
That Were Spared by the
Rushing Torrents Are
Buried Alive.

Austin. town OF 5000 residents.
in the northern part OF Pennsylva-
MIA, was swept out OF existence and
more than 500 OF its people We're
killed by flood which followed the
breaking OF the Bayless Pulp & Pa
per companys dam, mile and a half
north of the town Almost 100000
600 gallons of water rushed over the
place in a wall 10 feet high, wreck
ing every structure in its path.
The bursting of scores OF natural
gas mains. as@rthe buildings were
swept away, added fire to the gen
eral horror of the flood, and hun
dreds of those imprisoned in the
wreckage were burned to death.
The catastrophe paralleled in many
respects the destruction by food of
Johnston. Pa, in 1889. in which over
1000 lives were lost. The extent OF
the loss OF life and the destruction
of property cannot be known for sew
eral DAYS The property loss will
surely be several millions of dollars.
The food supplies OF the town were
destroyed and immediate aid to sur
vivors was urgent Hundreds OF those
who escaped were seriously injured
in the collapse OF their homes and
the panic of the rush for safety
Within an hour of the first general
knowledge of the calamity, special
trains bearing physicians. nurses and
food supplies were on the way TO the
scene. Hundreds of automobiles
bearing rescuers also toiled over the
rough and tortuous mountain roads
to lend aid
Temporary hospitals were fitted up
in nearby farm houses and impro-
vised structures fashioned from the
wreckage. The Red Cross also made
preparations for immediate aid to
survivors.
The intense heat Of fire sweeping
from the natural gas mains made ii
impossible for rescuers TO visit the
scene Of destruction for many hours.
Looters were among the first on the
ground and Governor Tener dispatch
ed large force of state police to the
town to protect the victims.
A telephone message from Austin
estimates the loss OF life at 1000.
The dam held back a huge mass
OF water. 1t was $50 feet long. 40
feet high and 80 feet at the base and
was of concrete On January q,
1909, crack was noticed in the dam.
Then followed a leak and portions of
the dam moved 16 inches. Repairs
were made, but the fears of many
that the repairs were not stable
were realized when the break came.
