BY the terms of these petitions the

concrete and guttered and the entire
expense will be borne by the citizens

other ordinance providing for the paw
ing of Zarker street from Eighteenth

GOVERNOR GOES
BACK To THE CAMP
DR.. Brumbaugh Greatly Interested
in the Way the Soldiers Are
Working in the Field

Governor Brumbaugh, who came

encampment of the national guards
men and will remain there until Thurs
day night or Friday morning.
The Governor said that he had en-
joyed his first day at an encampment

interested in the inspection work and

During the morning the Governor

perior Court: Senator Franklin Martin,

Adams. Luzerne, and c. A. Shaffer

HOME MAKING IN
GERMAN TRENCHES
Troops Line Banks With Willow.
in Basketwork Effect;
Build Chimneys

Tarnow, Austrian Galicia, June 23.,
been dignified with place in the
science of fortifcation and the art of
"homemaking in the trenches" The
Austrian and German troops, who, for
eleven weeks. lay in trenches along
the west bank of the Dunajec river,
facing the Russians on the other side,
were largely "landsturm" men from
the Tyrol, Bohemia, and Westphalia,
and nowhere in Europe has the AS
sociated Press correspondent seen any
thing to equal or even approach in
comfort and decorative effect the
winter homes which these soldiers
built along the bank Of the river.
The position which they took did
not at first view seem very favorable
for a comfortable trench life, it be-
ing along dyke of clay in a low
lying river valley. but the willows
which grew in profusion nearby af-
forded material to more than make
good all deficiencies. Trenches and
the dug-out shelters of the men were
first of all lined with basketwork to
prevent caving-in and contact with the
sticky clay. Then the men seemed
to have We'd with each other in MAX
ing new comforts from the slender
osiers. Nearly every shelter-hut had
chairs and tables of basketwork. Many
of them had chimneys of willow en-
cased in clay. Summer houses of
various shapes and designs were built
back of the lines later. the most COM
mon type being made of four long
boughs bent together in a sort of
tepee, with a roof of basketwork
woven in. On the top of the dyke
were the loopholes from which the
defenders fired at the Russians on the
other bank. Each man had excavated
for himself niche, man-high, rooted
and lined with osiers, from which he
could attend to the principal task of
soldier in full comfort and se-
curity.
Sod was cut and brought from n
distance and the outside of the housef
and the slope of the dyke were care
fully sodded with the loving care of
q good lawn artist. With the coming
OF Spring, gardens had everywhere
been laid out each shelter-hut having
at least one, with decorative border
or stone or sod before the door.
When the correspondent visited the
scene the basketware homes were
empty; Polish peasants were, turning
over the straw in the beds, searching
for money or trinkets, which might
nave been lost, or were carrying aWay
the doors, windows and furniture.
while. the soldiers who had built
them were miles to the eastward IN

STUDYING TYPHUS FEVER TO
PREVENT ITS SPREAD

In an attempt to discover more ef-
fective methods of treatment the
health authorities of the United States
are making a careful study of typhus
fever, which is now ravaging the ar
mics of Europe, says the July Popular
Mechanics Magazine. One of the cur
ious features of this study is a wax
model, over a foot long. of the insect
that transmits the disease. This model
is marvel of mechanical and tech
nical skill and is about one million
times the size of the living insect. 1t
is made from microscopic measure
ments of the original. More than a
year was spent in its construction, the
cost of the completed model being
close to one thousand dollars.

President Is Stronger
Than Party in u. S.

Washington, D. c., July 1s.-Presi-
dent Wilson is much stronger poli-
ucally with the people of the United
states than is his party. He is stronger
than he was six months ago, due gem
orally to his treatment of the Euro
pean situation, particularly the Lusi-
tania incident.
whether or not this popularity is of
a kind that can be turned to political
account in the election in 1916, is un-
certain, depending largely upon future
developments in the foreign relations
of the United States. The Presidents
economic and domestic policies and his
Mexican record are unpopular.
These conclusions are based upon
letters received in response to inquiries
sent out by The New York Sun 8
Washington, bureau to more than 500
political friends and acquaintances
throughout the country.
