DR.. Kelchner and his assistants at
the Emergency hospital were very
busy the present week. Fortunately
none of the patients treated were of a
serious character.
James j. Cummings, go years, of
$40 Haddon avenue, Camden, was a
victim of heat exhaustion on Monday.
He was taken i'll on the beach and al
though he felt a trife weak left for
his home in Camden the same even
ing.
Two "Fourthn cases were treated on
Saturday. Russell Hodgdon, IL years,
son of Mr.. Hodgdon who is connected
with Childs Grocery company, who re-
sides at 224 w. Wildwood avenue.
shot himself with a bulldog revolver,
two fingers on his left hand having to
be cauterized. Another victim was
August Hamm, 15 years, of 108 e.
Burk avenue. August shot himself in
the little finger of his left hand and
says he won't do it again.
Edna Lubrick, 5 years, of e. Gar
field avenue, received a nasty fall on
Sunday when she fell over the rail
fence around the Reading station.
She was knocked unconscious and was
taken in the ambulance to the hospital
where, after treatment, she was re-
moved to her home. Her face was cut
and her arms were painfully injured.
Elizabeth Taubel, 7 years, of 1902
Lake road, Wildwood Crest, daughter
of the late DR.. Taubel, suffered a frac-
tured collar bone when she fell in her
home on Wednesday,. DIR. Kelchner
gave the little one the best OF attention
a ID announces that her condition is
encouraging.
Ida Bensen, 8 years, of w. Spencer
avenue, was the victim of q peculiar
accident last Monday evening. In
some she got a large pebble in
her nose and was forced to 90 to the
hospital and have it removed. The
physician says it took quite some time
to draw the pebble from the nose aud
has it on his desk as a souvenir.
Clotilda Crausp, of 1914 Ritner street,
Philadelphia, was taken suddenly i'll
on Tuesday with ptomanine poison
ing. She was quite ill for several
hours and the doctor thought her case
might end seriously but the patient
rallied and was able to leave the insti-
tuition the following day.
Edward Femminor, of 430 N. 9Th
street, Camden, was treated for LAGER
ations of the nose and forehead on Sat-
urday afternoon. He was a contestant
in the motorcycle races on the beach.
He was thrown from his machine,
striking his head against the pilings,
DR.. Kelchner says the young man is
very fortunate, as he was thrown from
the wheel with terrific force and a
rowly escaped a broken neck.
B. c. Bishop, of Moorestown, sus-
tanned a sprained ankle on Tuesday
when he injured his foot as he was
jumping off a trolley car. He left the
hospital after having the injury dress
ed.
Edwin M. Messick, of 2i9 S. 9th
street, Darby, Pa, fell unconscious on
the beach on Wednesday. He had
been in bathing for five and one-half
hours and overdid the thing. He was
treated at the hospital and left the
same day.
Fred Yust, IL years, of 100 w. Lean
ing avenue, was bitten twice by a
sheppard dog owned by Virgil Davis
on Tuesday. DIR. Kelchner cauterized
the wounds which were on the thick
part of the thigh eaT the hip.

 Boys Hamper With Switches.
 Motormen of trolley cars on the Berlin division complain of the fact that the switch in front of Taylor's Hook and Eye shop in Kensington is being tempered with. Frequently they find that the block of rubber which holds the rails in the proper position. has been taken out. This throws the switch and, unless the motormen are on their guard, their cars will run onto the wrong side of the switch with the possible danger of crashing head-on into the car go- ing in the opposite direction. Just such an incident occurred one night last week when New Britain-bound car was brought to stop a few inches away from the Ber1in-bound trolley so suddenly that passengers were unable to hold their seats. Tampering with switches is a seri- ous offense and if the parties that are causing the trouble, are appre- hended, the law will be carried out to it's full extent. Trolley crews are fn clined to believe that it is the work of rnischievous boys Accepts Position in N. Y. Library. Miss sIsa belle Molumphy, daughter of MT. and Mrs. John T. Molumphy of Berlin, has accepted a position in 1. the children's department of the New York city library. She is em- ployed at present at the Tompkins Square branch but will soon begin duties at the main building at the corner of Forty-second street and Fifth avenue. Since graduating from the New Britain High school with the class of 1910, Miss Molumphy has served as librarian in the childrens depart i ment of the Springfield, Mass, H. brary. She severed her connections at that institution short time ago. Lecture on Mexico Tonight.

Believes Blaze Which Destroyed < Barn Started Accidentally.
lYcEUN MEETS THIS EVENING
Lecture On "Mexico" Will Be Deliv- ered-Boys Hamper With Switches Funeral of Mrs. Mott-Accepts :, Position in N. Y. Library.

Regarding an article printed in a Sunday paper concerning the fire which completely destroyed John T. Molumphy's barn Saturday afternoon, the owner told a Herald man this morning that the statement to the effect that the same was started by incendiaries was without any founda- tion whatsoever and that neither ne nor the authorities had reason to sus- pect anyone "We believe that the blaze was started accidentally said MT. Molumphy, and have not even thought of incendiaries, for that so- lution is entirely out of the question. '
 Mr. Molumphy supports the theory that the conf1agration received it's start upstairs in the apartments oc- cupied by his farm hands. He feels that one of them might have dropped a. lighted cigarette on some combus- tible article which took fire imme- diately after they left the building, for flames were seen to shoot out Ln $ the roof soon after. It is also pos sible. in the opinion of the owner, that sparks from a bonfire nearby, could have caught on the dry shingles of the structure.
 About 500 pounds of arsenate of lead and other spraying liquids were consumed by the fire as were some tools.
 As was stated in the Herald's exclu- sive article Saturday, the value of the building was estimated at about $2,OO0, about half of which was GOV cred by insurance.
 Funeral of Mrs. Mott.
 Simple funeral services were held this afternoon for Mrs Caroline Furst Mott, who passed away Friday night at her home on Pennington avenue. 'Rev. Samuel A. Fiske, pas tor of the Berlin Congregational church, officiated. Interment was IT Maple cemetery, Berlin.
