BAD SIGNS
IN EVIDENCE

1t seems that it would be a good
thing to obliterate the signs on Th.
State Bank & Trust Company Build
ling and the Nye & Ormsby County
Bank Building. The memory OF
these two defunct institutions is bad
enough without having their signs
staring the unfortunateS in the face
every time they pass. Strangers
have also been seen to call at each
of these defunct institutions on bust
ness bent and were informed by
residents that there was no longer
any money to be had from them, re-
gardless OF the fact that the quarter
report Of the Treasurer OF Ormsby
County still states that there ate
| Sl9,477. .6l of the county money in the
bank, and is being carried TO the
credit of the county on the books.

BIRDS
ON A SPREE

-Iilr members OF the w. C. T, L,
can get busy in this community as
there are lot of drunken birds about
town. They have become regular
"luShes" and can be found at the
Brougher home.
\ handsome line Of mountain ash
trees decorate the lawn and walk at
the Brougher residence The trees
are covered with a pretty red berry
which is a great attraction to the
robins. The birds fill up on the ber-
ries, and within short time go
staggering about the lawn. 1t is nos
uncommon to pick up several of the
red breasted topers and watch them
roll their eyes and almost have hic-
coughs The birds recover from
their drunken stupor within a few
hours and "the day after" don't seem
to bother them.
The Brougher family have been
watching the strage actions for some
time, and it was finally discovered
that the birds on eating the berries
become intoxicated. 1t would be
hard to say that the birds are "mak-
ne beasts of themselves" but they
most certainly become full as ticks.
In the future when man slips over
he will probably ''bc rs full as a
robin"

For years prospectors have been
trudging over the section and excel

EXPLOSION OF
GAS RANGE
In Restaurant Hurts Man
and AImest Causes Panic.

An explosion of a gas range in the

eral diners who were In the place at

injured. A piece Of the stove struck

LOCAL BOARDS
FALL MEETING
Many Petitions to DO Pre-
scented Next Week.

The first fall meeting of the Local
Board will be held September II.
Among the petitions to be consider
ed Is one to lay sidewalks in Amboy
road, between Crooke's crossing and
Little Dublin road, and Gifford's
lane, between Amboy road and the
station.
1t is the general opinion among
the people of S%outhfield that these
sidewalks are badly needed. Auto
mobilists also are united on the sub
ject.
The Amboy road is narrow at this
locality and there is not room on the
road for vehicles and pedestrians.
The highway has been considered
unsafe for foot passengers ever since
the automobile traffic has assumed
such great proportion. The contem-
plated sidewalks will be about a mile
and one half in length and will be a
great boon.
Fishermen and campers say that
automobiles coming down the steep
hill beginning at Clifford Inn, and ex-
tending to Eltingville church, render
foot travel unsafe. Several close
calls have been reported at this point
during the summer.
Other Petitions.
To Set and repair curb and gutter

tween York avenue and Tysen street,

To regulate and grade Belmont

Stitches In Wound.

Henry HERES, about ~forty-fve
years old, proprietor of a chicken
farm In Mcclure n Prince
Bay, had his scalp badly torn while
at work on his farm about Z o'clock
yesterday morning. Just how the
accident occurred could not be learn
ed, but 1t took DR.. R. W. Renwick,
OF Amboy avenue, Prince Bay, some
time to take twelve stitches in the
wound. The scalp was torn SO badly
that 1t exposed almost the top of the
skull. As near as could be learned
from the physician, the man was
working about the place when he
either fell or a against some sharp
piece Of iron or tin projecting from
one of the small houses used to keep
chickens in. After the man was at
tended by the physician he went to
St. Vincent hospital, West New
Brighton. He remained there only a
short time and returned home in the
afternoon. He Is now under the
