8 To DIE IN CHAIR
IN n. !. IN WEEK
Seven of Them Will Be Exc
cuted at Sing Sing Prison
on Same Day.

NEW YORK. Aug. 10.-A record for
wholesale official electrocution in New
York state will have been established
next week when E. F. Davis, of Corn
ing, y. Y, the official executioner. snuffs
out the lives of eight murderers con-
demned to die by the New York courts,
Besides these men, there are eighteen
additional murderers now in the death
cells of Sing Sing, Auburn and Clinton
prisons who must shortly pay the death
penalty unless now trials are ordered
by the highest court of the state.
The eight doomed men all are guilty
of crimes which at the time of their
perpetra ton excited wide interest. Five
were implicated in the murder Of Mrs,
Henry Hall at yorktown, WestChestcr
county, on November 6, 1911. They
are Italians, who. with robbery in view,
entered her home in the absence of her
husband. One stabbed her to death as
she was being held by the others. The
sixth member of the gang, Santo Zanzo,
already has paid the death penalty, 1t
having been established that he ac-
tually did the stabbing. He was ex
ecuted on July last.
The three men who complete the list
of doomed are: Joseph Ferrone. also an
Italian, who murdered his wife in New
York city on October "a last by cutting
her throat; John w Collins, a negro
who on July /, 1911, shot and killed Po-
liceman Thomas Lynch in New York,
and John Matuszewski, who shot Po-
liceman Charles Schaeffer. of Buffalo,
on September II last
Seven of these men are IN Sing Sing
and. according to officials Of the state
prison department, little more than an
hour will be necessary to execute them.
They probably will be killed on Mon
day.
Karuszewski, who is awaiting his
end at Auburn prison, will be executed
on another day

TECHS PLEA FOR
$4,000 IGNORED
House Refuses Appropriation
for Heating Plant Schools
Friends DispIeased.

The house, not to be swerved from
Its strait and narrow path of economy,
has turned down the $4,000 appropria
ton of the Georgia School of Technol-
ogy. of which the institution stands
WOefully in need
The Tech proposed to raise SIC, 900 by
its own efforts, If the state would pro-
vide the $4,000, but as the state has
refused, the matter is all off unless the
house can be persuaded TO reconsider
its refusal to Come across.
The Tech needs additional heating
apparatus. The outfit 1t now has ut
terly is inadequate. As the matter now
stands, it Is impossible to use some of
the class rooms in very cold weather,
and the faculty is forced to abandon
them for days at time.
Last year Tech, which is one of the
foremost institutions Of It's kind in the
country. spent for new buildings and
equipment something like $150,000. and
70 per cent of the money came from
sources outside the state of Georgia
The friends of Tech are saying that,
inasmuch as the school does so much
for itself and obtains SO much outside
help, the state of Georgia, which owns
the school and stamps it with the seal
Of its proprietorship, might help along
q little more than 1t does.
The house will be asked to reconsid-
er the bill and friends of the school are
hopeful that the appropriation yet may
be made.

The home of Maynard Smith at

destroyed by fire at about 8 O'Clock
on Thursday night of last week.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith were absent,
the children being at home alone.
The fire started on the upper floor,
it's origin being unknown, but is
supposed to have been caused by
mice eating matches. There was
no insurance and the loss is a severe
one, Mr.. Smith being in moderate
circumstances. About a year ago

Spraying Potatoes for Blight

A prominent potato grower in the
eastern part of Pennsylvania wrote
to DR.. H. A. Surface, State Zoologist,
Harrisburg, and asked if he consider
ed concentrated lime-sulfur solution
(dilute) as good for spraying pota-
toes for blight as Bordeaux mixture
and also asked about spraying grapes
and peaches. The reply that was
sent him is as follows: II can say
that no lime-sulfur solution is as
good for preventing the potatoes
blight as Bordeaux mixture. This
is very certain. Recent experiments
have proved this beyond doubt.
81 would prefer the Bordeaux for
grapes, but either lime-sulfur or
Bordeaux will do for plums. do not
spray my peaches in the summertime
and, consequently, do not recon-
mend it. If / should have conditions
such as an impending outbreak of
brown rot or curculo, l should spray
with the selfboiled lime-sulfur
solution, with arsenate of lead added
but up to the present l have never
found it necessary to spray peaches
in the summer, excepting the spray
ing just after the husks drop with
arsenate of lead for the curculio.

Highway improvements
Harrisburg, Pa, July II, 1912

Harrisburg, Pa, July II, 1912
Systematic maintenance OF the
5000 miles of road embraced in
the 296 main highway routes Of
Pennsylvania comprehensive plan
for improvement of highways has
been inaugurated by the State
Highway Department, and the
work is expected to show decided
results before the end of summer.
Maintenance of the roads taken
over by the commonwealth is i'm
posed upon the State by the Sproul
Main Highway Act of 1911, and
supervision of repair and upkeep OF
is vested in superintendent having
charge of one or more counties
each.
This repair work is probably one
of the largest tasks undertaken by
any state in road Improvement,
and while the amount accomplished
this year will be limited, owing to
the comparatively small portion OF
funds at hand for the purpose, the
organization of operations will
be long step in the line of pro-
gress.
The State has been divided into
districts comprising from four to
eight counties, and these districts
have been sub-divided, the smaller
divisions being in charge of the
road superintendent who are re-
sponsible to the engineers in charge
of the larger areas. The superin-
tendents are organizing their forces
for repairs, and roads which have
been neglected or damaged will be
put INTO shape for good travelling,
especially those in the vicinity of
market towns, so that farmers may
be given the advantage of better
roads and town residents obtain
farm produce more easily. Gradu-
ally the work is to be extended as
funds are made available 10y the
legislature for repair of all State
roads, which will naturally result
in a stimulus to local improvement
on township highways, many of
which connect with main highways.
Repairs will consist of removal
of humps, dragging, patching, un-
derdraining and ditching. Roads
which have been built by the State
since the organization of the High
way department in 1908 will be
put into good condition wherever
they have been allowed to run
down, special care will be taken to
improve the drainage.
1t is believed to be possible to
put many roads into shape to last
under proper maintenance for years
to come, at least until they can be
reconstructed out of the $50, 900, 900
bond issue for permanent road
building which will come before
the legislature of 1913 for final
action and then be submitted to
the people for ratification in the
form of All amendment to the con
stitution. The voting of this money
to be spent throughout term of
years and according to a well
thonght out, definite plan will be
of lasting benefit to rural commune
ties and put Pennsylvania in the
front rank of progressive states.
